The bookmarks sidebar keeps popping in and out. This shifts the screen making it hard to read or write anything. I have gone to "View" but am unable to stop it. The firefox questions don't address this issue.
Did you check if there were extensions installed in that new profile?<br />
Some programs install extensions globally and appear automatically in a new profile.
Do a clean (re-)install:
* Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
* Don't remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs.<br />
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.<br />
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.<br />

My daughter deleted my bookmarks and history. Can I get them back? I have Firefox 3.0 and a Mac.
On July 1, 2010 on about 4:30 pm, my browsing and history files were erased by a member of my family. I had very important information and messages that were saved from February of 2010 up until June. Is there any way of retrieving my history back? I have gone to Firefox and done everything but it doesn't seem to be working.
I have Firefox 3.6 installed and my computer is a MAC. Please any kind of help would be very helpful. Thank you.Hello Sandra.
You're using 3.6, actually.
Anyway, you can get your bookmarks back. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Lost+Bookmarks?s=restore+bookmarks&as=s#Restoring_bookmark_backups this article].
As for the browsing history, I don't believe it's possible to recover it.
Unless something different happened. If that's the case, my above help won't help you. Please tell me so we can work from there. If it does help, that's as far as I can help, I'm sorry. -
How can I stop the bookmarks sidebar from popping up in every new window/tab?
I CAN close it, by clicking on the X, or ctrl-B, or going to View... but it keeps coming back in every new window/tab, and that just annoys me. I'm used to having the bookmarks up in the Menu bar, out of the way, until I want them. The sidebar takes up a lot of space. And even though it's easily closed, I resent all these things that I didn't ask for, don't want, and can't control!
Usually the sidebar doesn't open by itself, but it is shared by all the tabs in a window.
If you are using a toolbar button for the Bookmarks menu (instead of the classic menu bar), you might have the sidebar open/close button instead of the drop-down button. They have nearly identical icons, but the menu has either a little triangle or the word Bookmarks to the right of it, depending on which bar it's on. (Screen shot attached, from Firefox 24.)
To change out your button, you can try the Customize feature. See: [[Customize Firefox controls, buttons and toolbars]]. -
This keeps happening and I don't know why
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the ''Safe mode'' start window.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (on Mac: "Firefox > Quit") -
I installed Java 7. Suddenly, Terminal bounced open every time I logged into my computer after that + the program I needed to run with Java didn't work, so I uninstalled Java 7. I have no Java, but Terminal bounces open - still. It never did before. I need the old version of Java to run my grading program, but I'm afraid to install Java 6 because I don't want anything new to "bounce" in. If I install Java 6 will it get rid of this Terminal application from bouncing in and will the Java 6 work?
I already looked into that - "open at login" was not checked. Thank you though.

Some how're face of my iPhone has gotten really large, I can't access anything. Tried turning it off but I can't access enough of the slide bar to turn it off

At 1st I thought this was because I'd forgotten to properly close my last session, but then I realized that it happens every time.

On my Calendar - any dates that has an event 'dot' it flashes/blinks. Any idea why? It is like it is trying to show that it is updating but it has been doing it for a week now. I have it set to show all Calendars (iCloud and Hotmail).
This is Relate to the CALDAV service of Hotmail changing to Outlook and updating their CalDav Services witch may Lag sometimes and cause the error you are having, for you to solve this
Settings > Mail, Contacts & Calendars > Accounts Outlook, Disable the Calendar service Hard Reset the iPhone and enable it again that should fix the issue
Provide a feedback if this solved the issue -

I tried through itunes and through wifi but keep getting the same message... cannot at this time try again in a few minutes. I been trying for days. id be happy just to get back to 4.2.1 but don't know how. Can anyone help me please
That's almost always because the phone was hacked to unlock it at some point, or because you don't have a SIM card in the phone.

I have just got a new mac book pro. When I synced my iphone 4s with it my audible book files were deleted from my phone though they are on the computer still. A pop up said my iphone was not authorised to play on this computer. Everything else is there just not my audio books from Audible. I'm half way through a book, what do I do?
The iphone is not a backup device.
You need to copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer to your new one. -
My boyfriend changed his pass code on his iPhone 5 and does not remember it. He's tried every possible code and now his phone is disabled and says to connect to itunes. I'm wondering if there's some where we can go take it to to get the password off without having to reset the whole phone and loseall all our pictures. Any info please I'd greatly appreciate it. I've called our carrier company and I can't do anything but referred me to apple.
If this iPhone has previously been synced to a computer you can connect to that computer which will unlock it.
If you have not done so there is no way to use it without Restoring it and losing your information. -

I have a 2012 mac mini with a mini toss link to toss link cable connected to an a/v reciever (Sunfire, grand theater 3) capable of dolby digital and dts. I am not getting 5.1 digital audio only stereo audio. Midi setup format 48000 hz 2ch-16 bit integer. In speaker configuration stereo is the only option all others are grayed out. How can I get this to work? Please help.
You should set up as 24bit integer. Toslink does not support
multi-channel encoded over a 16bit link. Just not enough
bits available. -
Anyone know how to stop the "activate" box from blocking usage of a perfectly legal copy of Ilisten? I want to help my dyslexic grandson and this box, including the activation code, keeps popping up, keeping me from using the software. I activated the program and did a few profile building sessions, now it pops up each time I start the program, blocking me from using it. Help sure would be appreciated.
JayI looked at your post this morning and did not know enough to respond, other than to find out that links to iListen now go to newer, renamed software. Considering it's been nine hours with no response, I'm suspecting few people here have experience with that software. You could contact the current copmany that used to sell that package and see if they have any archived support info.
BTW: please check you entry for "Mac OS" in your profile. It says iOS, which cannot run on an iMac. iOS is the system for phone and iPads but can't run on Mac computers. Do "About this Mac" from the Apple menu and see what it says about the OS version. Should look like this:
If the "Processor" line says "Intel," you have a newer Mac than the old modles this forum covers; Intel iMac have their very own forum here:

I can't update apps on my iphone 5. theirs an old apple ID. That I don't have the pass word. I've created a new apple ID. but the old one keeps popping up. I have it on the Itunes on the phone but the old one keeps comming up and asking for a pass word.
Apps are permanently tied to the Apple ID used to purchase them. You will have to delete the apps from the phone and re-purchase them using your Apple ID.
