Stuck on amazon, unable to get off, cleared hx, unable to get to anyother sites

tried turning comp off, logging out of firefox, logging out of Amazon, nothing works, site opens up with amazon in the line already.

Check your home page settings
Open a new window or tab. In the address bar, type '''about:config'''.
If a warning screen comes up, press the '''Be Careful''' button.
This is where Firefox finds information it needs to run.
At the top of the screen is a search bar. Type '''browser.newtab.url'''
and press enter. '''browser.newtab.url'''
tells Firefox what to show when a new tab is opened.
If you want, right click and select '''Modify'''. You can change the setting to;
'''about:home''' (Firefox default home page),
'''about:newtab''' (shows the sites most visited),
'''about:blank''' (a blank page),
or you can enter any '''web page''' or '''about: page''' you want.
The same instructions are used for the new window setting, listed as
'''browser.startup.homepage'''.
If you don't see anything wrong, search for '''amazon.'''

HT201412 My ipad mini will not power off. The ICloud Backup reminder is stuck on the screen and will not clear off.

My ipad mini will not power off, nor will it respond to any commands. The ICloud Backup reminder (which I do not use and have not activated)is stuck on the screen and will not clear.

Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds and see if you can get it to reboot.

My iPod touch is stuck. I can't get it to power off. all that comes up on the screen is the Apple Logo. Is there anything I can do to fix this problem?

My iPod Touch is stuck. I can't get it to power off. All that comes up on the screen is the Apple Logo. Is there anything I can do to fix this problem?

You may need to hold the sleep/wake button and the home button until the apple logo appears. Or anther thing you can try is draining the battery until the battery is dead. That's what i tried and worked. You may need to do those things more than 2 times. OH anther thing is you can try connecting you ipod to your computer and see if it appears on itunes. If those don't work you can send it to apple. So that's what helped me I hope I answered your question.

Trying to download apps on I pad mini but they are stuck on waiting and never get to the password phase. Circle on app just keeps turning

Trying to download apps but circle just keeps turning and the apps stuck on waiting

If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.

Another thing to try - Turn the iPad Off & then back ON.
If that doesn't work:
• Log out of your iTunes store account. Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
• Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
• After restart, the Waiting should be gone.

IPhone 3GS stuck and I cannot switch it off. Screen shows an USB plug connecting to iTunes.

My iPhone 3GS stuck and i cannot switch it off. Screen shows an USB plug connecting to iTunes.

this usually appears when your iphone is not registered correctly with apple/itunes so plug it in to your computer and try setting it up if it gives you the correct prompt. if not try to restore and sync. usually tis problem appears when your iphone has no sim card or is not registered correctly. in this case you need to contact your carrier and set up an account. if you are trying to use it without a service or sim card then unless you go through some sketchy program of hacking it it is worthless to you without a sim or service plan. i have the original iphone1 i got from a buddy of mine i used as an ipod before getting an iphone4 and if i took the sim out this message appears. if you do have a sim and a service plan than there might be a problem with the phone reading the sim card you you can go into your service provider's store and request a new sim to see if that works.
I am sorry if none of this is helpful for i have no other suggestions.

Hi guys, an empty folder is stuck in my trash & I get this message: "The Finder can't complete the operation because some data in the folder can't be read or written. (Error code -36). It won't shift no matter how I try to Secure Empty trash. Any ideas?

The Time Machines Backup is formated as Mac OS Extended (Case Sensitive, Journaled), my mac is formated as Mac OS Extended (Journaled).

When I try to copy the Aperture file, it copies about 70% of the file (it's about 33GB in size), and halfway through I get this error.
I'm able to copy 99.99% of all of the images if I open the Aperture Folder using the "show package contents" under the backups using finder (Time Machine Backups>Backups.backupdb>CQ Macbook Air>2012-04-30-070933>HD.....>Pictures>Aperture Library). The only file I can't copy is that picture, which I'm totally ok with deleting, but Finder won't delete it for me. If nothing else works, I could copy the individual masters and re-create the folders, however I'd hate to do this as I would have to go through 10,000+ pics

Recently my pc crashed and I had to have a new profile built. Now when syncing my iphone 4s to the computer the sync gets stuck on step 8 and "syncing artwork" It never finishes syncing...just sits there for hours. Subsequently most of my music and apps are missing from my iphone because it never finishes syncing. How do I fix this?

1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
3) sync the device
iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
If you were updating iPhoto from the App Store, open Launchpad and click your iPhoto icon, so download should continue. If it doesn't work, restart your computer, delete iPhoto and install it again

Unable To Connect To Some Sites

I am unable to connect to some sites, with the error message "Safari can’t connect to the server." I cannot connect to the site with Firefox either.
Example sites are: www.bostonpizza.com and www.airmiles.ca
However, I am able to connect to these sites when I boot into WinXP.
I have tried pinging the sites in question, getting the following error message: "ping: sendto: No route to host"
It looks like something is bonked with my OS X settings. I have tried the following without any luck:
1. Reseting the computer
2. Clearing Safari's cache
3. Reseting PRAM settings using OptCmd+pr key commands on startup
4. Using OpenDNS in the network DNS settings
I am connected directly to a Linksys ADSL Ethernet modem, and my firewall is set to allow all incoming connections. I'm not running PeerGuardian, and as far as I know I'm not running anything in the background that would bork my network.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

I have tried doing a traceroute when running in WinXP, with the following information:

Trace complete.

Thanks for the replies, unfortunately I still haven't resolved the issue. I would say 99% of the sites I visit work fine, but for some reason the odd site won't work.
This is the results for the ping on my Mac OS X system:
PING www.bostonpizza.com (64.40.107.95): 56 data bytes
ping: sendto: No route to host
I can access the site running WinXP in Parallels, and I can access the site in question when I use bootcamp to boot into WinXP, using the same network hardware and same connections.
It looks like from the ping, DNS is working and able to translate the site name, but for some reason cannot access the site.
This is the results of a traceroute that I ran while booted in WinXP:
Tracing route to www.bostonpizza.com [64.40.107.95]

When booted in Mac OS X, I am able to ping every listed IP address in the WinXP traceroute, except for the last one, 64.40.107.95.
Still no idea what is going on, my network troubleshooting toolbox consists of pretty much ping, and googling error messages.

SharePoint C# Get list of sites on which user has permission (Read, Contribute, Owner, Admin, Visitor)

HI,
I wants to get list of sites on which user has permission, all permission name like (read, visitor, contribute, owner)
using (SPSite oSite = new SPSite(SPContext.Current.Site.Url))
foreach (SPWeb oWeb in oSite.RootWeb.GetSubwebsForCurrentUser())
permission = string.Empty;
foreach (SPGroup group in oWeb.Groups)
foreach (SPUser u in group.Users)
if (u.Name == (userName))
foreach (SPRole role in u.Roles)
permission += role.Name.ToString() + ", ";
} // Taking All Permission details of user
permission = " [" + permission.TrimEnd(", ".ToCharArray()) + "]";
my final string variable will have values like [Read, Visitor] or [Read] or [visitor, Read]
I wants to have all permission names and also geting error on u.Roles [Roles is absolute now],
Help me to get permission by using SPRoleDefination etc
SPRoleDefinitionCollectionroleDefinitions
= oWeb.RoleDefinitions;
SPRoleDefinitionroleDefinition
foreach(SPRoleAssignmentroleAssigment
inoWeb.RoleAssignments)
Thanks
Praveen

Depending on how large your farm is and how many webapplications / site collections you need to enumerate to build this list, you might be better off using search to get the list of sites/webs that the user has access to (search results are security trimmed).
You could then enumerate just the list of sites returned to determine the exact permissions.
E.g. Code for getting a list of sites the user has access to:
var ssaProxy = (SearchServiceApplicationProxy)SearchServiceApplicationProxy.GetProxy(SPServiceContext.GetContext(SPContext.Current.Site));
var keywordQuery = new KeywordQuery(ssaProxy);
keywordQuery.RowLimit = 200;
keywordQuery.SelectProperties.Clear();
keywordQuery.SelectProperties.Add("Title");
keywordQuery.SelectProperties.Add("Url");
keywordQuery.ResultsProvider = SearchProvider.Default;
keywordQuery.QueryText = String.Format("contentclass:STS_Site OR contentclass:STS_Web");
keywordQuery.ResultTypes |= ResultType.RelevantResults;
ResultTableCollection searchResults;
searchResults = keywordQuery.Execute();
if (searchResults.Exists(ResultType.RelevantResults))
var searchResult = searchResults[ResultType.RelevantResults];
var results = new DataTable { TableName = "SearchResults" };
results.Load(searchResult, LoadOption.OverwriteChanges);
if (results.Rows.Count > 0)
var resultsText = new StringBuilder();
foreach (DataRow dataRow in results.Rows)
var urlToWeb = dataRow["Url"] as String;
//Perform your checking to determine the exact permissions
