Searching in address bar takes me to yahoo instead of google now, can't figure out how to reset it.

I used to be able to just type in my searches in the address bar, or if I mis-typed a URL, it would google search it. Now, it does that with Yahoo, and I can't figure out how to reset it. I did the about:config thing, and it didn't work. Suggestions?

Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
I would contact Apple ID Support and see they can do anything from their end or give more detailed instructions.
Also, see Apple ID Support.
They do respond and hope it get's resolved.
Let me know what they say.

I have no tirefox tool bar or search bar at all. Can't figure out how to get it. Using windows vista.

Since updating Firefox, I have no tool bar / menu bar / search bar. All I have at the top is my fox news radio tool bar.
I can't figure out how to get the tool / menu / search bar at the top of my screen. So... I can't search from Firefox.

The alt key or F10 will reveal hidden toolbars. Then use View- Toolbars to turn them back on.
Then press F9 when in a write window to turn on the contact sidebar for access to your address books.

I have TB 24.6.0 and I deleted the menu or tool bar from my address book and I can't figure out how to get it back.

I am trying to figure out how to efficiently copy a contact so I can add the contact information to an email. While experimenting I unchecked the menu bar or the tool bar from my address book and now I can't figure out how to get it back. So you could say I have two questions for which I would welcome suggestions:
1. How do I get my menu/tool bar back into my address book?
2. How can I efficiently copy and paste contact information?
Thank you

Can't figure out how to delete addresses that autofill in the Mail To field

Can't figure out how to delete addresses from the address book that will automatically fill in an address after typing a few letters of a name. Quite a few people have changed their email address but I sometimes inadvertenly choose an old address just because I can't delete it.
Thanks in advance for any help!
Milli.

Assuming you're using Apple Mail, you take those old addresses out of the Previous Recipients list. When in Mail, go to the Window menu, then Previous Recipients. Edit this list, it's everyone you've sent mail to, not just address book people.
Alternatively, when composing a mail message and seeing those old addresses, you should be able to click & hold over the name and a list of actions should appear, including "remove from previous recipients list" if they are not in your address book.

I have no "File - Edit - History - Bookmarks tool bar at the top of my screen and can't figure out how to get it!

new desktop, new user of Windows 7. Made Firefox my browser as always, with Yahoo as my home page. There is no tool bar at the top of my screen that says "File - Edit -- History __ etc the way I have always had! I can't figure out how to get this, and I need it! Help!!

Press the alt key next to the spacebar. Do you see it now? If so, click View -> Toolbars" and check the Menu bar. See [[Menu bar is missing]] for more information.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.
After deleting the account from your devices, change your details with Apple, Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account. You may have already done this.

Assuming that this is on your iOS device, then you can change a contact's details via the Contacts app. If it's not linked to one of your contacts then I get a blue 'i' to the right of the email address on the popup list :
Tapping on that gives me a second popup, at the bottom of which is :

If your computer is on one minute before it freezes, than you have one minute to secure your serial number.
click the apple----->click about this Mac ------> click on version----> until you see the serial number. You may have to do this a couple of times if it freezes before you have all the numbers. A camera might help.
Good Luck

Hi Shayes,
You can change the default download location by going to ''Tools > Options > General''. The [[Options window - General panel]] has some extra information on all of the options available.
Hopefully this helps!

Just purchased new iPad. Map app shows my current location in another city. Can't figure out how to change to correct address.

QUESTION - just purchased iPad 2. Map app shows my 'current location' in another city. I can't figure out how to correct the address.

That is a problem with the WiFi-only iPads. Location is determined by the routers "within reach" of your iPad. There apparently is a database somewhere that tracks the location of routers and that is used to determine the location of the iPad. It's been known to produce some really cockamamie results.
In my case, it was off by a reliable 200 yards for maybe the first year that I owned the iPad. Then it mysteriously began to recognize my actual location.

Can't figure out how to add bars to reformat 16:9 video to fit a 4:3 frame

Hi all, I'm a long-time user of iMovie 5, and a professional Avid video editor. On my home computer, however, I have some serious issues using the "dumbed down" version of iMovie '08 which, unfortunately, it seems I must use if I want to avoid purchasing new software, and don't feel like trucking my personal work to the office.
Usability issues aside, I'm at a total loss as to how to reformat my imported video clips. At the moment I have a .dv file which is exported from FCP in a 16:9 format. I want to take this into iMovie '08, format it to fit a 4:3 window, add it to a bunch of other clips, and export a finished 4:3 movie to then put on DVD.
Importing is fine, editing is meh but works (sorry, I'm a snob), and exporting works fine, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to put a reformat on the video. The goal is to have black bars on the top and bottom of the video image, squeezing the anamorphic 16:9 video down so that people don't look vertically stretched in a 4:3 window.
What I do NOT want to do is crop out any of the video footage. The goal is to keep all of the video, and just add the black to the top and bottom in order to make it look, well, normal. For the life of me, I can't figure it out. it looks like this would be something that the Crop / Fit tool does, but that won't let me extend the fit outside of the frame of the video, nor will it let me put a 16:9 fit inside of the 4:3 viewing window (I only have a 4:3 option when in 4:3 mode, and only have a 16:9 option when in 16:9 mode).
Thank you very much for your insight.
PS: Just as an aside, why on earth did apple move iMovie '08 away from timeline-based editing? The old iMovie versions were quite powerful editing suites in their own right - even with limited video and audio layers. The '08 version seems to just hate users who want to do anything remotely close to frame-specific edits.

I guess I've got to add the flags back in somehow? The weird thing is that the movie is the correct aspect ratio in iTunes and Quicktime, just not iMovie '08.
iTunes, QT Player, and previous versions of iMovie all relied on the "Current Display Size" setting to set the aspect ratio. (I.e., you can modify this setting and change the aspect ratio by merely changing the display size in QT Pro and re-saving the file for these apps.) Unfortunate, iMovie '08 looks for the flag for the main display/export, and, if Apple hasn't changed things, uses the "current display size" to set the aspect ratio of the thumbnails... Weird.
How would I add those flags back in? Can I just open in quicktime and save a new copy? Or am I going to have to contact the original source of the material and have him export it again (with different settings? And what settings would those be? He's coming from FCP).
If the content is of exceptional quality, you could try re-exporting it in MPEG Streamclip using the "Export to DV..." option. This will re-flag the file with the aspect ratio you select in the export window. Also, be advised that performing destructive edits in iMovie '08 that forces the data to be re-written to new containers will lose the flag in the process unless Apple has made some recent changes to avoid this.

I would like to use iCloud. However, it is sending the verification email to an address that no longer exists (college email that I used when I set up iTunes the first time). I can't figure out how to change that so I can get it sent to my appleID email

Please help me figure out how to change the email that I originally set up so that I can verify my email and use icloud! Thanks.

If you use extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) like Adblock Plus or NoScript or Flash Block that can block content then make sure that such extensions aren't blocking content.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
You can use one of these to start Firefox in Safe mode:
*On Windows, hold down the Shift key while starting Firefox with a double-click on the Firefox desktop shortcut
*On Mac, hold down the Options key while starting Firefox
*Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
If it works in Firefox Safe-mode then disable all extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
