Safari sometimes loads a page I did not type-in. Typing in google or yahoo ends up sending me to a different page.

Intermittently, when I try to load a page such as google or yahoo, Safari sends me to another website or tells me it cannot load google. The last time, I cleared all my history, cookies, etc. and it worked just fine and hasn't done it since, but I'm worried. Any thoughts?

Hi all
I was able to fix this problem today by using a program called DSNchanger Removal Tool. It was suggested by someone at the usenet group :comp.sys.mac.system, that I do a search for this program at versiontracker.com. After downloading it, I used it to scan my hard drive and then remove a trojan horse.

  • Having horrible service with 4GLTE I have had 3G for several weeks (I am not the only person I know having this problem), I have reset my network settings and it did not resolve the issue.  I am also unable to send SMS and text messages without them eithe

    Having horrible service with 4GLTE I have had 3G for several weeks (I am not the only person I know having this problem), I have reset my network settings and it did not resolve the issue.  I am also unable to send SMS and text messages without them either failing or not sending at all.  Is there an outage in the Cleveland, Ohio area (zip codes 44129, 44134, 44137) or anything else I can do to resolve this issue?

    Not that I'm a Verizon employee, but I have experience in the field. An LTE tower will only extend up to, on a perfect day, with no elevation, 6-7 miles. On a typical day, you will be lucky at four (4) miles. The three ZIP codes you've given are all within about a 12 mile radius. That would mean that 2-3 towers are currently down at the same time, and Verizon would know about it within the hour. Being it's Cleveland, I'm sure they would receive numerous calls regarding an outage of that size.
    My point is that if you're having issues in all three ZIP codes, chances are it's a phone issue. If you're handset is simply not receiving LTE, but still receiving 3G, that would signify a SIM card issue. You need to get your SIM card replaced.

  • I believe some how some way my iPhone or appleID has been hacked into.  My iPhone sent 3 iMessages out that I did not type or send - 2 while I was sleeping and one while I was in mid imessage conversation.  Please help if you know anything about this!

    I believe that my iPhone or apple ID has been hacked into.  Three imessages were sent from my phone that I did not type or send - two while I was asleep at 1:15am and in the morning during an iMessage conversation.  These messages were to my boyfriend about my boss.  Apple and AT&T have been somewhat helpful but both are pointing fingers at the others saying they cannot track the message or see if my personal information has been compromised.  I feel extremely violated because this hacker knows who my boyfriend is and who my boss is and I just started this job two weeks ago!  I am about to go to the police because this person is trying to taint my good reputation and destroy my relationships at work and in my personal life.  Does anyone have any incite on how this could be done and is there any way to trace where those three iMessages were generated from??

    No I have my own iPhone iPad and MacBook  so everything is set up on devices that are mine and as far as I know I never connected to anyone else's device and logged with my apple ID.  But are you saying it is possible for someone to have obtained my apple ID and send an iMessage from their device with my contact information so it looks like it came directly from me?  It's crazy I looked down at my iPhone and saw this message had just been sent that I did not type or send

  • When I'm on Facebook and I'm typing a post or comment, words seems to pop into my sentences that I did not type. Also certain words that I type ( ex: say I type the word begin, there will be the letter z in front of the letter b ).

    When I be on Facebook I always have a problem with my posting and comments. There is a tendency that when I'm typing two or three other words will pop into the sentence that I did not type. Also when there are words beginning with the letters I use for a word, the letter z pops in as the first ether. I experienced this problem with my original IPad and the same is going on with the replacement. Can someone here in the community tell me what is going on . It's driving me crazy. I. About to purchase some Holy Water for this possessed device.  Thank You

  • Typing in url for my company website sends it to https index page in Firefox, but not IE or Chrome, and the behavoir is not wanted

    After upgrading Firefox to version 14.0.1 i noticed when i typed in my company's website address that firefox went to the https:// version of the site when it never did that before.
    Example, if you type in amazon.com in the URL bar, you briefly see that firefox turns the url to https://www.amazon.com before being auto directed to the normal www.amazon.com site.
    My website did not have a secure index page and people were getting a server generated message until I found this issue out.
    Is there a setting in Firefox to prevent the URL bar from selecting a secure connection first? This behavior does not occur in the most recent versions of I.E. or Chrome browsers on a desktop.
    Any help would be greatly apprecaited

    I've now been forced to tell my users NOT to use FF because of it's BUG.

  • I have three "pages" of apps, not all of which are full.  How do I move an app from one page to another to consolidate?

    I have three pages of apps, not all of which are full.  How do I move apps from one page to another to have full pages?

    Hook your iPad up to your computer and iTunes and move them from within iTunes.
    Or
    Hold down on one of  your apps until they all start to wiggle. Then hold down on the ones you want to move and drag them on the screen. Drag them to the middle left to move them left,(such as from page 2 to page one) middle right ot move them right,(from page 2 to page 3) rearrange as you want.
    When you're done, tap the home key and everything should stop wiggling.

  • I am trying to change the page number format in a section of my document.  I want 2 sections to have 2 different page number formats.  How can I do this?

    I have 2 sections in my Pages document.  I am using Insert Auto Pages in footers to number my pages, but when I try to change the number format for one section it changes the format to the same as my change for the other section.  I want auto page number in each section but want each section's page numbers to have different formats. I have managed to get the auto page numbering to begin separately in each section, but just can't get the formats to be different.  There must be a way to do this.  Anyone know how?

    You look on the right edge of this page in the box entitled [More Like This].
    The dumb machine was able to find threads containing available answers .
    Using the Search feature with a simple request like
    page number AND format AND section
    would have give these links without opening a new thread.

  • What happened to the tool bar & why did you switch my browser from Google to Yahoo?

    When I downloaded Firefox 4 you switched my search engine from Google to Yahoo. I much prefer Google. Secondly, at the same time, my toolbar disappeared. When I wanted to print out a mutual fund activity confirmation, there was no means to do it. Unless this is changed, I will go back to IE, with great regrets. Photogranny.

    You can remove the Yahoo Toolbar by going to Tools | Add-ons | Extensions and remove it from the list.
    But it's not part of the original installation file. You might of got it when you installed something recently.
    By the way, you need to update Flash. The version you have installed at the moment exposes your PC to hacking. You can download the latest version from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/

  • Safari is loading webpages extremely slow and not loading images...

    Not loading webpages a lot of the time and not loading images on sites such as Facebook, Twitter, etc. I'm new to Mac and I'm running Safari on a Mac Mini. Help? Also deleted ~/Libraries/Safari and it didn't work.

    Please answer as many of the following questions as you can.
    1. Have you restarted your router and broadband modem since you first noticed the problem? If the answer is no, do that now and see whether there's any change.
    2. Are any other web browsers installed, and are they also slow?
    3. What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
    4. Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and are they also slow?
    5. If you can test Safari on another network, is it slow there too?
    6. If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference?

  • ORARRP Web Page test did not open printer dialog

    Set-Up
    I have downloaded ORARRP onto the client (in WINNT).
    I modified the INI to use "choose_printer=no".
    I have updated the httpd.conf under the Apache directory path on our linux server and restarted the listener as per the orarrp instructions.
    Client Test
    If I use IE to open test.rrpa on the client (as file:///c:/test.rrpa), the file is printed.
    Server Test/Problem
    I renamed a pdf file on the server to test.rrpa and created an html page with a link to it. When I goto this test html page in IE on my client and click the link, it opens the rrpa file in Acrobat. But nothing prints.
    Note: The default printer on my client is a local printer (on LPT1).
    What have I missed?
    Any help will be greatly apprciated. Thanks.

  • Zzxc: FireFox hangs on opening requiring force quit I have snow leopard mac and tried terminal from your web page but did not get the box as shown

    hello zzxc

    I have tried to uninstall and reinstall, to try terminal as instructed
    It will not open in safe mode

    Try doing a "clean install" of Firefox:
    # Force quit Firefox
    # Drag Firefox (in Applications) to Trash, and empty trash
    # Download Firefox again from http://www.mozilla.com and re-install.

  • I clicked the getting started button. Just to see. I did not download. I have lost the yahoo toolbar and have an orange box, top left of page. I want it back the way it was. Help ?

    It seems to me that what I said is quite clear and I do not know what else to add to it

    Does the orange box say "Firefox"? Click that button to access a combined set of menus. Or, to restore the classic menus, tap the Alt key and choose
    View menu > Toolbars > Menu Bar
    That same menu area lets you show or hide your other toolbars.
    Can you get it back to the way you want?
