The image on the icon associated with my shortcut keeps disappearing. The shortcut still works.
The Firefox image associated with the shortcut I have pinned to the taskbar has disappeared. The shortcut still works but the image is gone. I have uninstalled and reinstalled 5.0. This worked, but after a few days the image disappeared again.
Nope. under security you can set an administrator password, and under accounts, you can set up a guest account and limit the things that person can access. as for computer access, again, it depends on the privileges you choose as creator of the guest account.

when i try to open torrent using magnet, I get the following message. Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (magnet) isn't association to any programme.
'''I had this problem and just re-installed Firefox. Problem solved. In my case I believe it was due to installing FlashGet. Though I uninstalled FlashGet, it had pre-empted the Magnet links / protocol. I hope this helps you with your instance. Happily I had the installer for my version of Firefox (7.0.1) saved and used that but you might need to search for your current version or install a later version'''

Wi-fi icon on my ipod touch has disappeared but is still working, any ideas?
My wi-fi icon has disappeared from my ipod touch although the wi-fi is still working. Any ideas?
My Ipodtouch 2nd gen has this problem as of today. Nothing has changed recently, no software update or so. The wi-fi icon (upper left corner of screen next to iPod) does no longer show, although I still have connection to the internet (new pages do open). I tried your (Illaas) suggestion resetting the iPod without success.
I also removed the settings for my prefered network (forget this network) and then reselected this network and entered all required settings. I also restarted my wi-fi router. No success at all. the wi-fi icon won't show. -
I owned an iPhone 4s a year ago before I unfortunately lost it. I have since then bought the iPhone 5 but had not plugged it in to my computer yet to download any music. I plugged in my iPhone today to my laptop and my iTunes store stated that it registered that it was a new iPhone and asked if I wanted to restore or update my new iPhone with the information that was backed up on my old one. I chose yes, that I did want to restore the old information in to my new iPhone. However, now that I did that, my new iPhone does not have any of the contacts, texts or pictures that I had already on my new iPhone.
I desperately want my information back that was lost on my new iPhone when I updated the phone. Is there any way to get those pictures and information back? I logged in to my iCloud account and it still did not help get my pictures, contacts or texts back.BarnsleyMif wrote:

No such thing has occurred. iPhones do not backup to one another.
It is not possible to backup a different iPhone from the one being updated.
If the iPhone was restored with a backup from a different device, restore it again from the correct backup.

how can I get all my new stuff back and stop it from happening again?
Pay attention when restoring the iPhone and select the correct backup to restore from. -
Is there a way to change the icon associated with icloud account?
Is there a way to change the icon associated with my iCloud account? It's currently a rose and i do not like it.
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Are you referring to your iCloud account picture or your user picture?
It looks like you are referring to your user picture. To change it, open System Preferences > Users & Groups, press the picture box and choose the user picture you want from the ones that came by default. If you want to select a different picture stored on your Mac, drag that photo onto the picture box.
If you want to change your iCloud account picture, open http://www.icloud.com and log in with your Apple ID. Then, press your name at the top right of the site and press the user picture. If you put the cursor on the picture box, you will see a button at the top of the box to change your picture -
I've lost the icons associated with my bookmarks. I've tried restarting my Mac, reinstalling Safari, and the add-ons suggested in other forums without any success. Is there a way to fix this issue?
Hi rmmilleriii,
You should take a look at [https://support.mozilla.org/kb/latest-firefox-issues#os=mac&browser=fx9 this article] that discusses some of the issues with the latest build of Firefox.
There is some information in there that should help you to resolve your issue. Luckily, it is a very easy fix.
Hopefully this helps! -
When I used mavericks in a preview of a picture I could just press the icon that was a box with an arrow pointing up and that would allow me to share (message, email, Facebook, etc) the image. Now in Yosemite in preview if I click the box-arrow
Found my answer in another thread- this is what I did
GO to System Preferences > Users > Right Click on your Name > Advanced Options > and refresh your UUID
Restart your System and the widgets are all back
This solution worked fine for me! -
The small icon that is associated with a website & appears to the left in the address bar when a website loads no longer appears for 6 of my most frequently used websites. This began about a week ago.

IconNode node = (IconNode)path.getLastPathComponent();
IconNode newNode = new IconNode(userObject);
DefaultTreeModel model = (DefaultTreeModel)getModel();
model.insertNodeInto(newNode, node, 0);
...You should write :
if (tr.isDataFlavorSupported(TransferableDataItem.DEFAULT_MUTABLE_DATAITEM_FLAVOR))
IconNode node = (IconNode)tr.getTransferData(TransferableDataItem.DEFAULT_MUTABLE_DATAITEM_FLAVOR);
IconNode node = (IconNode)path.getLastPathComponent();
IconNode newNode = new IconNode(node);
DefaultTreeModel model = (DefaultTreeModel)getModel();
model.insertNodeInto(newNode, node, 0);
...and create a construcor for IconNode :
public IconNode(IconNode node) {
super(node.getUserObject, node.getAllowsChildren());
icon = node.icon;
}When you use IconNode newNode = new IconNode(userObject), the icon is null (see your constructor).
If I can say something, you should simplify your code : you can do the same thing dividing the size of your code by five (at less).

I am unable to locate where to change the phone number that is associated with my itunes account. I have a new number and the old number is no longer accessible by me. I've logged into my iTunes acct and it seems I can only change my appleID itself, my billing address info, and password and things like that. I cannot find where to remove a number and add a new one. I've gone to my mobile devices (iphone, ipad) as well as my mac and I'm getting a bit frustrated with it. I'm sure there's a simple solution and I'm just missing it. Going to settings>messages>send&receive....there is the old number and no option to make a correction. I've unchecked it but why can't I add the new number? On my iphone the ONLY option that shows up is my current number but when I set up my new ipad I have the issue described here. I want this number completely removed from my account there has to be a way to get it out of the system.
Also when going to settings>facetime>you can be reached at: shows email addresses as well as the OLD phone number with no option to make the correction, remove the incorrect number, or add a new number. I figured this was tied in to my appleID since thats when it showed up (right when I signed in on my ipad). So I went to itunes on my mac and went to my account and there I find AppleID Summary, itunes in the cloud, purchase history, and settings. I've gone through each of those and am still unable to figure out where to change it. Somebody PLEASE tell me where to find this data so I can change it. I've seen multiple inquiries about this all over the internet but everyone's solution is to do exactly what I've already done. No resolution to the real issue.Apple will have it, but if there is ever a question/problem, the store that you made the exchange at will have it on record.
But if you're worried about it call 800-APL-CARE and see if they have it. -

Try replacing the "html" at the start with "http",
so if you have html://somesite.edu,
change it to http://somesite.edu. -

I have two Apple IDs - one associated with iPad and iPhone and the other associated with iMac and MacAir. I am going to lose the former e-mail address imminently and would like to associate all devices with just one ID. How do I do this? Thanks
Thanks - I guess it is like there were two of me!
I bought the iPhone first and it seemed natural to link it to the (work) e-mail address which was in constant use. The iMac for home use came next and it seemed natural to use my home e-mail address, particularly as I knew by then that I would lose the work address after my imminent retirement. The same logic went for the recent puchase of the MacAir. I am not sure what happened with the iPad (also a recent purchase) - iTunes seemed to puch me towards the same ID as the iPhone.
It is not a huge problem - just makes my persona look schizoid! Otherwise very happy with everything Apple. -
How can I exchange all the images in a slide show with new ones
I have 18 slide shows each is a different competition for our camera club. How can I exchange all the images from each slide show with new images as our club competitions commence? I am reluctant to just delete the slide show because I will have set it all back up. I want to leave the size shape and format of the show as is, but just exchange all of the current images with new ones. I am hoping there is a quick way to delete and replace all images for each show? Each slide show has around 40 images and I have 18 shows
thank you for your help1. Activate "thumbnails" in the configuration panel
2. Select one Thumbnail.
3. Rightclick and choose "Select same"

I have an HP ProBook 4520s. I have been using HP Protect tool's Password manager to store and manage my passords for all Login websites in Firefox 3.6. As a result, I just swiped my fingerprint to log on to any website.
After I installed the version 4 of Firefox, my all my login details do not work anymore. I have tried to reset them but I repeatedly get this error: "Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (dpql) isn't associated with any program."
something like this would have been passed onto the address: "dpql://c:\program%20files%20(x86)\hewlett-packard\hp%20protecttools%20security%20manager\bin\dpminionlineids.dll/qlinkload.htm#id=2".
Although the password manager works with Internet Explorer 9, I need it to work with Firefox 4 as this is my preferred browser.
Please help. Thank you!I guess this means that IE is more user friendly for HP Password Manager finger swipe recall of passwords, a favorite of mine. I still don't see a post from Firefox as to why they haven't produced fix. So I'll switch to IE until things change. I don't see value in downgrading to a Firefox version that's no longer going to be supported.
