When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Clear Firefox's Cache
Firefox menu > Preferences > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on yahoo.com (secure or insecure), try either:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Tools menu > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
If you can't open a page on yahoo.com, you can open the dialog on this site and change the site in the search box at the top of the dialog to yahoo.com.
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

  • TRIED ALL FIXES: none work - sync session failed to start

    Most of my attempted fixes use only my MacBook, OS X 10.7.3 (current Lion), iTunes is 10.5.3(3) 64-bit (current version). Phone is AT&T 4S, 16 GB v. 5.0.1 (9A406, current version).
    I have used iCloud match on this phone, but now have it shut off. When I use iTunes to view the music on the iPhone, I see 1864 songs. iTunes sees this as 1864 items, 5 days, zero bytes). All are streams. All are greyed out. I can't delete them. I can't overwrite them becuase I can't sync.
    This problem is on every computer I have tried. 4 different computers, all running either Lion, Snow Leopard, Windows 746x or Windows 8. I have tried the following:
    Reset all settings on iPhone, then restored from iCloud
    Remove all applications and settings, then restored phone from iCloud
    removed iTunes, reinstalled (windows only)
    Turned off iTunes match on Mac, Windows and iPhone
    Removed all device support for iPhone, then re-installed it
    Restarted iPhone, Mac and PC
    Reinstalled Windows from scratch
    Tried a Mac that had never synced this phone before.
    Tried new installation of OSX (install Snow Leopard, upgrade to Lion)
    Tried DIAGNOSTICS on Windows iTunes (all passed, including Device Connectivity, then it reported 'sync failed to start')
    Tried one post that insisted my iCloud settings on my Mac and in the iPhone control panel needed to match, so I tried that too.
    I have no other options. After over twenty-four hours involved in nuking and restoring iPhone from cloud, I don't see what there is left to try. Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi, you're my only hope.

    btw, u could try the last post in this thread https://discussions.apple.com/message/17700783#17700783. for me it didn't work. see if it works for u.

  • Multiple Errors, tried all fixes, nothing seems to work.

    My phone was working perfectly and has been for the 2 months since I got it...
    All the sudden I went to use it and there was a white screen with some kind of error that wouldn't do anything so I did the battery pop reset.
    Now when it starts up it says Uncaught exception: java.lang.NullPointerException(looked it up, tried all fixes, none worked) and I also get the Application Registry.waitF or(**************) timeout and I had  Module 'net_rim_pdap_resources' not found error.
    None of my music will play and when I start it up it now goes to a screen that says Blackberry Device Platform and lists everything instead of showing any icons or the homescreen.
    I did a wipe hoping that would work and it didn't so now i've run out of options, can anyone help me?
    It sounded like a good idea at the time....

    You will need to use JL_Cmder to wipe the device and subsequently load the OS to the device. Follow the instructions here:

  • My iphone wont let me recieve yahoo mail, tried switching off phone,taking account off and on cant get server button to move says on but is pale so cant move on or off!!!!

    Hello there stidhambr15,
    I was researching the issue you are having and recommend a couple of things. First it might be a good idea to reset the device following iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't quite get the device going again, I recommend restoring the device.
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
    Might even be a good idea to turn off the phone, reseat the SIM card, and turn it back on.

  • My Adobe flash keeps crashing. Have tried all fixes.

    My Adobe flash add on keeps crashing; I have done everything short of uninstalling Firefox. Please help.

    Is this an "in plug-in" crash where you see a crash error inside a gray box in the page?
    I know you said you have tried all fixes, but if you wouldn't mind ticking off the following just in case:
    (1) If you have any recorders/downloaders that interact with Flash media make sure they are as up-to-date as possible, or disable them temporarily.
    (2) Disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin. See this support article from Adobe: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues
    (3) Disable the Flash plugin's protected mode feature. This involves creating or editing a settings file. The following pages/posts provide different ways to do that:
    * Adobe support article under the heading "Last Resort": [http://forums.adobe.com/message/4468493#TemporaryWorkaround Adobe Forums: How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?]
    * Manual steps: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/968190?page=5#answer-509209
    * Batch file to automate the manual steps: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/982093#answer-518078
    Flash needs to completely unload from memory (restarting Firefox might help) before this would take effect.
    Any improvement?

  • My ipod doesnt have headphones in but it says it is and i cant hear anything ive tried everything but nothing works help!!

    My ipod says theres headphones in but there isnt ive tried everything but nothing works help!!!

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.
    Apple - iPod Repair price                  
    A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.
    iPhone Repair, Service & Parts: iPod Touch, iPad, MacBook Pro Screens
    Replace the jack yourself

    I cannot access my Yahoo e-mail using Mozilla Firefox. I can using Internet Explorer. I don't have any trouble getting to Yahoo main page using Mozilla Firefox. Please fix this.

  • Firefox will not load to home page. Loads to last page. Tried ALL fixes. Ready to go to chrome unless you can fix.

    Firefox will not open to home page. I have read all the articles, and tried all the fixes. Safe mode, complete reinstall...everything. Firefox has way to many of these issues. Can you help?

    First step in troubleshooting - what have you tried ("all the fixes" isn't enough information)
    Start with the basics. For example, have you done this:
    # Click: Menu > Options > General
    # Set "When Firefox starts:" to "Show my home page"
    # Set "Home Page" to whatever website you want Firefox to load when it starts.
    # Click OK
    See also: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-to-set-the-home-page
    Does this work?
    If no, have you tried this? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-to-fix-preferences-wont-save You may simply need to reset Firefox.

  • Yahoo mail using all my iphone cell data

    In the last month, my cell data use has quadrupled (usually average around 2.5GB, now I'm on pace to hit 7.5GB by the end of the month). The culprit seems to be my Yahoo mail coming into the iphone mail app. I've had the account for over a decade, so there is a lot of mail there, but I can't limit how much it's bringing in (thanks, Yahoo). Any ideas as to bugs going on about Yahoo mail servers sucking up all the cell data? I don't have the option of being on wifi at work during the day, so this is a big pain.

    Thanks, You know..... it happened with me once before when I first use the windows live mail client.... I contacted yahoo staff and they replied with the same as you replied......( I thought that there is  way to do what I wanted )...
    By the way they advised me, if I wanted to get my folders .... I have to MOVE messages from specific folder to INBOX then SYNC imail then CREATE folder in imail with the same name as in my yahoo and so on !!!!
    OK, if there are ways to sync the WINDOWS LIVE MAIL accounts and its folders, it will be great..... Does anyone know HOW TO ?
