Today I clicked on a web site and the site appears in a separate behind the regular firefox browser. the "front" page goes the web site I want to go to, but the page "behind" will not go away. I can see the page behind on the far left hand side.

I provided enough information above.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile:
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

That should not be happening on a new Mac.

I am using iphoto '09 version 8.1.2. (424) today a few photos will not open. I can see them as thumbnails but they try to open and then a big ! mark appears

I am using iphoto '09 version 8.1.2. (424). Today a few photos will not open. I can see them as thumbnails but when I try to open them they start to open and then a big ! mark appears. I have not had this problem before. Can you help

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

My apple extreme wireless network is working fine with the macs but ios devices (iPhone & iPad) will not connect. I can see the network though. Everything was working until the ISP went down. Any suggestions?

My apple extreme wireless network is working fine with two Macs but ios devices (iPhone & iPad) will not connect. I can see the network and it's telling me I'm connected but Safari says I'm not connected to the internet. Everything was working until the ISP went down. Any suggestions?

Thank you, I've tried the support tips (resetting the network, checking security settings, etc.) and rebooting the network devices several times to no avail. I've actually been working on this for several days (when I can afford to have the network down).
What I have to determine is what has changed in the setup...from when it WAS working just fine with all devices.

My video app that is preloaded on the IPAD will not open. all I can see is a blank screen. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can fix it?

The "The connection was reset" error message can be caused by a bug fix for the BEAST (Browser Exploit Against SSL/TLS) attack that the server doesn't handle.

In the far left hand column, Devices keeps disappearing. I can get it back by downloading iTunes again but disappears again after I run disk utility.

With a Device plugged in - place your mouse cursor over DEVICES - you should see 'show' or 'hide'. Click on 'show'.

Sorry but you can't

Just updated to the latest Firefox and now my MSN email will not function. I can see the titles as normal but cannot open individual emails

Just updated Firefox. Now I cannot open msn emails. Email titles appear as normal but will not open.

Hello ebarrow
If there is an issue with update or permissions the better, quickest and safest way is to download and install firefox:
1. Download with your safari a copy of the latest firefox from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
2. '''''Trash''''' the current Firefox application to do a clean install.
3. Install the version that you have downloaded.
Do not select to remove your personal data, your profile data is stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so you won't lose your bookmarks or other personal data.

Please mark "Solved" the answer that really solve the problem, to help others with a similar problem.

After preferences have been opened and closed, instead of folding back into the menu bar a grey square stays in the far left hand corner of my screen. This is then replicated on every screen. I can't seem to solve this, any ideas?

After using the preference pane, it does not fold away back into the finder bar but leaves a grey square in the top left corner of the screen. When I switch to another screen within spaces, the grey square still appears.

I have the exact same problem.. I tried disabling all add-ons and I'm only using the default theme... still no change. Whenever I close the preferences window it becomes an obtrusive grey square in the top left corner of the screen. It even obscures other open applications and won't disappear until I quit Firefox...

My late 2010 MBP is having a noise on the upper left hand side while starting up. is that from the internal fans or the HDD? is it cause for worry? am i going to lose the comp or the data?

there is a noise from the upper left side of the machine at the time of starting up? is that from the HDD or the motherboard fan or the processor fan? recently my 3.5 year old HP laptop crashed and it was only later that i came to know that the heating issues had led to the motherboard being affected. i want to avoid such problems with my MBP.
i would be grateful if some one could reassure me as to the probabilities of the problem which i am facing from the machine. the noise mentioned above is mostly at start up but at times also at the time of running of the machine though more intermittently so.

Are you still under warranty? If so, call Apple and report the problem and get a case number. If you do have a hardware problem, a case number will document that it originally occurred under warranty, and Apple will honor your warranty until the problem is fixed.
You can also run the extended version of the Apple Hardware Test. It will be on one of the grey system discs that originally came with your computer. On your model, it may also be possible to boot to it by holding down "D" as you boot up. If the AHT detects a hardware problem with your fan or hard drive, you will get an error code.
Alternatively, if you have access to an Apple Store, you can make an appointment at the genius bar and have a hardware test run.
There is also a utility you can run which will give a good check on the physical health of your hard drive:
http://www.volitans-software.com/smart_utility.php
SMART Utility seems to be a bit more critical than Disk Utility, and may be able to detect impending drive failure sooner. You can download the demo and run it several times for free.
Also, here's a link where you can listen to failing hard drive sounds:
http://datacent.com/hard_drive_sounds.php
If you do have a hardware problem, a hardware test should detect it. If it's a fan, you want to replace it ASAP. If it's one of two, wouldn't hurt to replace both of them.
If the hardware tests don't show anything, you may have some other problem like maybe a bit of trash or debris caught up in your fan which is making noise. It wouldn't hurt to keep tabs on your fans with something like iStatPro.
Good luck!

I have an older od that streams my iTunes and my iPhone 4s used to, but now my iPhone will not stream. What can I do to get streaming back on my iPhone?

I have an older iPod touch that streams my iTunes with iTunes match. My iPhone 4s used to stream as well. Since updating my iPhone I can no longer stream to my phone. Is there a way to back date my operating system on my iPhone so I can stream again or is there an update coming to enable streaming in the near future?

Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another install. Does it go through this time?

Firefox nor firefox-uninstaller will not open although I can see that they are running in "Processes" meaning I can't open it nor uninstall it.

If I try to open firefox or uninstall firefox, nothing happens. I see that they are running in "Processes" but that is all. I can't open it; I can't uninstall it. Any ideas? I've checked my hard drive for errors, no viruses, all other programs perform as designed. Thanks in advance.

Sometimes the Firefox window gets "off screen" somehow. You often can force it to appear on the screen by right-clicking the little thumbnail image above the Taskbar and choosing Maximize. Does that work?
One possible cause for this is that the file which stores window sizes and positions has become corrupted.
'''Method #1:''' ''If you can get a maximized window:''
Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using either
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
* (menu bar) Help > Troubleshooting Information
* type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
In the first table on the page, click the "Show Folder" button. This should launch a new window listing various files and folders in Windows Explorer.
Leaving that window open, switch back to Firefox and Exit, either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "power" button
* (menu bar) File > Exit
Pause while Firefox finishes its cleanup, then rename '''xulstore.json''' to something like xulstore.old. If you see a file named localstore.rdf, rename that one to localstore.old as well.
Start Firefox back up again. Do windows display normally again?
'''Method #2:''' ''If you cannot get a Firefox window at all:''
Shut down Firefox by right-clicking the taskbar icon > Close All Windows.
Using the Run dialog (windows key + R) or the Start menu search bar (or in Windows 8 maybe the charms bar search bar?) type or paste the following and press Enter to drill down to the Profiles folder:
%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
Here you may see one folder -- in which case, double-click into that -- or more than one folder -- in which case, double-click into what looks like the most recently updated.
Scroll down and rename '''xulstore.json''' to something like xulstore.old. If you see a file named localstore.rdf, rename that one to localstore.old as well.
Start Firefox back up again. Do windows display normally again?

How do you get the red light to flash in the upper left hand side of the Iphone4S so I know when I have a email or txt?

How do your get the red flashing light to occur in the left corner of the iPhone 4S so I know when I have a email,txt or message left?
