Tell firefox where to find plugins

Is there a way to specifically tell Firefox where it plugins are?
OpenSuse 11.4, Firefox 3.6, the flashplayer plugin does not show in the list of plugins so can;t play flash videos. I have downloaded the latest libflashplayer.so and put it in every "plugins" folder that I can find for Firefox or Mozilla and Firefox still can't seem to find it.
Is there and entry I can put in about:config to tell it the specific path to find it's plugins?

Ok, I was not very successful with that question. Anyway, I found the answer. You just have to select the application (one click), then right-click on it to see a menu. Then select "See package content", and another Finder window appears, and you just have to make your way down until you find a folder called 'Plugins'.
Thanks the MacGenius at the Apple store in Walnut Creek for giving me the answer.

Dee,
See [[Using the spell checker]] and make sure you have spellchecking enabled and a dictionary is installed.
From the [[Options window - Advanced panel]] article:
* '''Check my spelling as I type''': When this preference is enabled, Firefox will check your spelling and offer possible corrections as you type in web forms. Note that you may need to download a dictionary; to do so, right-click on any text field, enable spellchecking if necessary, and then use the provided Languages menu to download a dictionary.

Had problems with my broadband going down at weekend, since it came back on unable to join wifi BT say it is because my wifi settings are missing on my iPad can anyone tell me where to find seething details IP address etc

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

Can anyone tell me where to find/download the talking tom cat message notification for iPhone4?

I can't find any sort of "Talking Tom Cat" that provides message notifications, and without jailbreaking I can't see how it would be possible. The only Talking Tom Cat app I can find it a self-contained novelty app. If that's what you're referring to, just search the iTunes Store for "talking tom cat" and if the app is available in your country, you should find it. Be aware that while the app is free, the "gold coins" for all the accessories are definitely not free.
The forum in which you first posted is, by the way, for questions about the Communities themselves. Usually you'll get the quickest and most accurate results in you post in the forum dedicated for the product or service about which you have a question.

Can some tell me where to find the documentation for Oracle forms 6i,11g

Hi Everyone
Can someone please tell me where to find the online documentation for Oracle Forms 11g and 6i .
Thanks in advance
Gautam

Most of the design time documentation is included in the Design-time tools (Builders). Specifically in the Builder Online Help. This information is no longer available on a web site. As for Forms 6i, hardly any of that information is available on the Oracle site any longer. That version has been obsolete for several years. You can find some of the old deployment documentation for 6i (6.0.8):

How do I tell iTunes where to find my default Outlook 2013 pst file?

How do I tell iTunes where to find my default Outlook 2013 pst file - I do not use the default location and I am not using Exchange?

Basically now what you will have to do is clear your library, and then re-add the music from the external drive (File menu, "Add folder to library").
For future reference though, the best way to handle this situation would have been to first create a "Music" folder on the external drive, set that as the default music folder (Edit menu, Preferences, the General sub-tab under the Advanced tab), and then use the Advanced menu "Consolidate Library" option. This would have copied all your iTunes music to your external drive and re-linked iTunes to that location for each of the songs. Then all you would have had to do is delete the song files off the computer's hard drive, and it wouldn't have had any effect on the iTunes library.

I have an iPhone 4 with iso6, can someone tell me where i find siri? When i hold in my home key, voice pops up for contacts or music but i cant figure out Siri??

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Siri is only supported on the iPhone 4S and 5. If you have an iPhone 4, you can't use Siri. If you have an iPhone 4S or 5, open Settings > Siri and turn it on. Then, hold Home button until Siri shows up

I have a program that requires a Java plugin version 1.6.0_17 can you tell me where to find it?

I need this particular version, but have no clue how or where to find it. I am operating under Windows 7 currently. Can someone point me in the right direction?? Thanks in advance1

You can download Java Plugin Version 1.6.0_17 (as well as many other versions old and new) by visiting 'File Hippo' at this link:
[[http://preview.tinyurl.com/btg95oh|Java Oracle Plugins]]
Please keep in mind however that the Firefox Java Plugin has blocked JRE versions below 1.6.0_31 or between 1.7.0 and 1.7.0_2. As of April 2012 some Firefox versions automatically block all Java plugins which are Java versions less than 1.6.0_31, therefore every user that has a problem and is running with a Demantra that supports Java higher than 1.6.0_19 can upgrade their Java plugin to 1.6.1_31. Demantra 7.3.0.2 and all versions of 7.3.1 support it.
Anyone who has a problem while running on an older Demantra version that does not support Java versions newer than 1.6.0_19 cannot use Firefox with Demantra. Instead they can either use Windows Internet Explorer (IE) without a Java upgrade or they can upgrade their Demantra.
If they upgrade to the latest Java version then the Demantra plugin will not work - not with Firefox and not with IE.
If you still need additional help, you can find it at [[My Oracle Support.|My Oracle Support]] Oracle's one-stop online technical support portal offers a wealth of resources for customers.
'''How to enable Java if it's been blocked'''
In order to protect you, Firefox has stopped some versions of the Java plugin from running automatically because of security issues. However, you can still use Java on trusted sites if necessary.

In linux, saving a background image (set as Desktop)feature doesnt download my image to wallpaper folder..or even to standard "Save download" feature. Can I tell firefox where (what folder) to save my "Set as Desktop" picture?

When I find a suitable picture to use as wallpaper" I often right click and use the menu item "Set as Desktop Background". The file ""example.jpg" is saved in directory\folder "/home/user" rather than for example "/home/user/my wallpaper" or in the directory
"/home/user/Downloads". The latter as being set under the "Downloads" section on the "General" tab in the "Preferences" dialog box.
Is there a configuration file where I can change the default location to save my "Set as Desktop Background" images. Or better still can the menu be customized to launch the application that allows me to set my desktop wallpapers?
I am using the "PCLinuxOS" Linux OS but I have encountered this issue in many if not all the Linux distributions I have sampled.

Don't use "Set as Desktop". Use ''' "Save Image As..." ''' instead, and file it with your other "wallpaper" images so the operating system has access to those images.
IIRC, Firefox saves a "desktop image" to the Profile folder, and it will only save one image, at that. Change the image and the previous one is gone.

Hi All, can anybody tell me where to find the little 'down arrow' next to the "back one page" browser icon (upper left of screen) that let you jump back several pages at once? Thanks

I used to be able to view (and click one of) the last 8 or 10 visited pages using a dropdown box activated by a 'down arrow' symbol between the 'browse forward and backward' icons in the top left of the screen if a webpage led me down a blind ally and I'd have to browse backward several pages to get back to my starting point. (Or more annoyingly wouldn't allow you to just go back), but with the new firefox vs I only seem able to browse backwards one page at a time. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

To get the drop-down history for a tab without an add-on, you can do one of the following:
*right-click the Back/Forward button
*HOLD down the left-click on the Back/Forward button until the list appears
