The tabs in OPTIONS can no longer be accessed - it opens to the history page and that is all I can reach.
The options page comes in with the TABS inaccessible above the page level.
The page cannot be moved, and I cannot access any other options page/tab.

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.

My iPhone 3Gs has frozen and I can't do anything except turn it off by hard boot. When I plug it in, I have the apple icon and that is all. It was at 43 percent battery life when it happened and my Twitter app was giving me problems. Thoughts?
Put it in recovery mode and restore it as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808.

I just downloaded the most Recent version of Firefox and I cannot see anything. Everything just goes blank, and I can't even see the toolbar up to try and get into the settings!
Did you check the default text and background colors?

Also check [X] "Allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above"<br /> -
Firefox 26 does not load the home page. Instead, it loads the previous session, irrespective of what has been entered in "Options". The browser is running in Win 7.0 64-bit; Norton Internet Suite 21 provides the security functions. There are certain "cloud" solutions also running such as Google Drive, Box, Skydrive and Cubby. The browser behaves similarly in all my machines (the setup and OS is similar to the one described above) and no amount of resetting of "Options" seems to affect it . Nor is it affected by the manner Firefox is closed. It is obviously a bug that needs to be fixed.
u wait for firefox next update
otherwise
1. go to firefox tab .
2. click on help ->trouble shooting information.
3. reset ur browser .
ur problem is solved -
My old version of Firefox allowed browsing from the history list with a minimised history window. This allowed website or webpage to be shown next to the list. Since upgrading to Firefox 3-6-12 I cannot do this and have to relaunch from the history tab in the toolbar each time.
Is there a way round this. I am a novice on these things.You can open the History in the sidebar: View > Sidebar > History (Ctrl+H)

Powerbook Lombard starts to the gray Apple - and that is ALL
My Lombard had 10.3.9 loaded on it for over a year with no hardware or other modifications. Then yesterday, I stupidly allowed Software Update to install a bunch of updates, including several security updates, itunes, and a few more. Anyway, after a little while, the computer crashed and, when I tried to restart it, all I got was the grey screen with the apple -- no spinning ball, nothing.
I have tried a lot of different things to fix this including:
- reset pram (ctrl-option-p-r)
- reset power management (reset button on back)
- boot into single user (Apple - S) did not work, would not boot into single user so no fsck
- boot into verbose (Apple - V) did not work
- load emergency OSX disc that I made -- wouldn't load
I was able to boot onto an OS 9 emergency disk, but that really only got me to the point of trying to boot into the OS 9 partition that I had on the hard drive. I selected it in Startup Disc, but no go.
So, after all this, I decided to take the HD out of the Lombard and plug it into my G4 Powerbook via USB drive. Using Disc Utility I repaired the disc (actually no repairs were needed) and the permissions, put it back into the Lombard. . . . and . . . . nothing. Same gray screen with the darker gray Apple.
So, I tried to wipe the OSX partition from the HD and reinstall OS X on it. I used Carbon Copy Cloner to copy my 10.4.3 partition from my G4 Powerbook. This worked fine, but when I plugged the HD back into the Lombard . . . . nothing.
I am pretty much out of ideas. Please help!!!
[Also, if you know, what is the name of the screw that holds in the HD to the cage on a Lombard. I need to get a screwdriver for that so I swap in another HD that I have to make sure that the HD I'm using isn't the problem (but Disc Utility says its fine and it reads fine via USB).]M B1,
The prohibitory sign when booting to an OSX CD suggests a hardware issue. Here is the article on the prohibitory sign when booting to the HD:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106805
Here is an article on a no-start to CD (your issue):
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=88152
A few suggestions:
-I don't think the HD is a problem since you have zeroed/tested/installed 9.x/booted it successfully; something else is causing the boot to CD to fail.
-When you are booted to 9.x (HD or CD), open the System Profiler under the Apple menu and report what memory you have installed. You need at least 128MB and it can be split between the two RAM slots or all in the top or bottom.
-Check to see if the backside L2 cache memory is reported in the Profiler; you should have either 512K or 1MB depending on whether you have the 333MHz or 400MHz CPU. Also, cold boot (not restart) to 9.x, either from the HD or CD; if the L2 cache is damaged, you may get a warning dialogue at startup.
-You may have a Lombard with a microprocessor card that has this known issue: 9.x will run fine with the max of 512MB (2x256) but 10.x will fail with memory in the top slot. Leaving the top slot empty and using a 256MB module in the bottom allows 10.x to run normally. Please download and run this 9.x utility:
PPC Checker
http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/G3CARDS/PPCchecker/
If this utility reports this...
PowerPC 750L (LoneStar, Rev2.2) Copper G3 PVR = 0x00088202
...then you have the CPU that cannot run RAM in the top slot.
-If you do not have the bad CPU and since you removed the top RAM module, you may have a bad bottom module. OSX is more sensitive to marginal RAM; 9.x may run fine but 10.x will complain.
-The bottom memory slot requires a low-profile module (1.5" or less, measured from the pins to the opposite edge). The top slot can take a standard-height module (2.0") or low-profile. Lift out the microprocessor card (very easy to do), turn it over and remove the bottom module. Replace the microprocessor card with the bottom slot empty and reinstall the RAM module that originally populated the top slot if it is at least 128MB in size. This will remove the question of a bad lower RAM card.
-MacOS 9.x's Drive Setup can fully prep the HD for both 9.x and 10.x; either is acceptable. I don't believe you need to zero again since it passed Test Disk in Drive Setup. (Don't use Disk First Aid.) When you initialize (erase the HD), you are given the option of HFS Standard or Extended; you want HFS+ (aka MacOS Extended). This is all you have to do when using 9.x's Drive Setup, located in the Utilities folder on the CD. -
I just got the new itunes and I can open itunes and see my music but whenI try and go to the itunes store it just loads to a white page. I try and refresh and go to the home page and nothing happens. I can sign into my account and the tabs for the itunes store pop up like they normally would when browsing the itunes store but when I click on one of them, it is a blank page. Is there a setting I need to change? Does it just take an extremely long time to load? Please help!!

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

Who can shed some light on my ongoing connection problem.
After upgrading my iPad Air with IOS 7.06, I could no longer connect to the internet.
I have 2 MacBooks Air, 1 ipad mini and one iPhone 4S running on the same network, and they are all connected to the net and function well.
So I cleaned up the ipad completely, installed the latest firmware and reinstalled my apps : no connection.
I tried all things of resets and forgets. No result.
I have been fondling with my Airport Extreme 5 , but that did not help much.
This morning I went to a neighbor , hooked my ipad air on his network, typed the password and the thing all worked fine.
I have tried to connect the ipad air as an ethernet client, but that did not work. „Not enough power“ was the statement
Ideas anyone ?Yes I tried this manyfold. But did not work. Reading on, I took Tesserac's advice. Shut down router and computer.
Start router after 15 minutes and wait another 10 minutes before starting the computer.
Et voila.... everything is back in working order,
Regards form Curacao, Dutch Caribean.

The main part of the safari page is grey and won't respond/can't type in any commands. I can move back through the previous pages, and even open new ones via the URL, but can't get onto the main part of the page and I can't get onto the 9 page option. !?
Help, please.Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (and Clear History)
If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot. -
A while ( couple weeks ) before the last update and change I noticed my URL's were vanishing a second after I arrived on a page. Not all URL's but most. This is a safety issue if I can't see I'm on the right page and have not been diverted.
ALSO, I can't copy them to send a link via email if they aren't there! I found a way in the old FF click down list, but even that feature is gone on this new version! This needs fixed at once.
AND when I make a new tab it vanishes! Or worse does not display like a tab. I can't go back and forth between pages if the tab vanishes. This started with the last FF update and change. This is poor design!!! When I updated the restore previous session grayed out. All my tabs were gone and I don't have them all in history. I was researching some things and it was important, now I can't remember them all. This is not a good thing!
Unless you pin all your tabs immediately they will vanish??????? Stupid design. It does not even show the new tab for THIS page!!! "but is does show your URL....hmmmmm"
What is the reason for having an arrow go through open tabs if they vanish???
PLEASE FIX THIS or I'll have to change browsers, I'll have no choice. How can you do anything if FF erases your URL's or tabs!Hey Fox1User,
Thank you for your message. I believe that this will happen when you have a dark theme applied to the new version of Firefox. It has been resolved in the 29.0.1 update that went out yesterday and would love to hear if this has improved the issue for you. I understand that the tabs are disappearing and it sounds like they may be blending into the tab bar.
However! if this is not the case, can you please show a screenshot of the tabs [[How do I create a screenshot of my problem?]] after trying to produce this in Safe Mode [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
I hope we find the culprit, looking forward to your reply.
I also noticed you have 4 versions of Flash installed. -
I have bookmarks and notes that are no longer attached to the original page and I can't find a way to delete them. Could someone help me purge these things so they are not in the way?
James Ward4 Thanks for your suggestion. I have tried the video app and it appears to have some, but not all of the downloads which are viewable without wifi, so I will now review the download process and see if I can capture the missing episodes. Thanks again.

Can you help me to retrieve my applications. In iTunes I accidentally clicked the Restore button in the Summary screen. It restored the original settings and I lost all my applications and don't know if it is possible to retrieve them.
All apps on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch should be in your iTunes library on your computer.
You can re-download all 3rd party apps and you won't be charged again for a purchased app as long as you use the same iTunes account to re-download the apps that was used to purchase the app originally.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
Do this with iTunes on your computer. After you have re-downloaded every app one by one, select Sync Apps under the Apps tab for the device's sync preferences along with selecting the apps below that you want transferred to the device followed by a sync to re-install the apps on the device. -
whem installing itunes on my mums new computer which is windows 7 i get this message everytime "this installation package could not be opened. Verifiy that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid windows installer package"
Let's check your Windows system.
1. Have you done all the important windows updates and service Packs on your system. If not do it now. START button, type in Windows Update and ENTER. Select 'CHECK FOR UPDATES'
2. Let's check your Windows system files for possible file corruption
SCAN and repair possible Windows system file corruption:
Go to command prompt (START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES right mouse click "command prompt" and choose "Run as Administrator"
type in
sfc /scannow
let Windows fix any system files that need to be repaired.
Restart the computer if it did actually repair any files.
3. Check your system for possible Malware. But you have to do it in WIndows Safe Mode.
Start your computer in "Safe mode with networking", go to this link download a free version of Malwarebyte.
http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free
Install and perform update immediately, then do a full SCAN. Remove malware if it indeed finds any. Restart computer to regular windows to let Malwarebyte complete the removal.
To start your computer in safe mode
Press and hold the F8 key as your computer starts. You need to press F8 before the Windows logo appears. If the Windows logo appears, you'll need to try again by waiting until the Windows logon prompt appears, and then shutting down and restarting your computer.
On the Advanced Boot Options screen, use the arrow keys to highlight the "safe mode with networking" option, and then press Enter. Log on to your computer with a user account that has administrator rights.
When your computer is in safe mode, you'll see the words Safe Mode in the corners of your screen. To exit safe mode, restart your computer and let Windows start normally.
