Top half of yahoo and msn pages to do not show, not sure how to fix

When I first open Yahoo or MSN the whole screen is there. Then it is like a shade dropping down so that only half the screen shows. I am not sure where to change the settings for this on my computer. It says something about Ads not supported by this site on the top half.

It sounds as though the ad visuals are being blocked, but the function of the page to show it is not being blocked, so you just get a blank overlay. That's not helpful, since you can't see the close button that presumably is built-in to the ad.
You have quite a few add-ons, and sometimes an extension may be responsible for removing -- or adding -- ads on a page. Could you try this:
Disable ALL nonessential and/or unrecognized extensions. If you can live without it for 24 hours or you don't know what it does for you, if in doubt, disable:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Extensions category
Then restart Firefox using one of the links on a disabled extension and test again. Does it make any difference?

  • Yahoo and MSN messenger sounds.

    Hi all,
    Wondering if anyone has had this probem, Sounds(alerts) on Yahoo and MSN messengers have both stopped working on my mac. I also run virtual PC on my mac and am getting a message that "Virtual PC is unable to start that Mac audio system a newer version of Mac OS may solve this prioblem". Strange because I am running latest version. Any help would be great. Thanks

    Hi Nikkisixx2,
    Welcome To The Apple Discussion Pages.
    Ok If in System Preferences > Sound > Sound Effect tab the volume for sound effects/alerts is on and high enough to hear - then go to your Hard Drive/Library/Preferences and delete com.apple.audio.DeviceSettings.plist

  • Yahoo and MSN Messenger in iChat

    Hi
    I want to use iChat for Yahoo and MSN Messenger. I want to use it mainly for the Video chat feature in iChat.
    thanks

    Hi,
    If you can get the Yahoo IM app for Mac to work (It is still in Beta and has been for Years) then it is the only direct way.
    Tokbox is a Web Browser Based Chat site that allows you to use your Camera. (It uses the Flash Plug-in)
    It has the advantage in that you can link in your existing Buddy Lists.
    Mebeam is a less formal site that does similar (Lees the Buddy List Linking)
    The MSN App will only Video Chat if you are linked to the correct Microsoft Server (I forget the name exactly)
    ProteusX and Adium are both essentially text Based Mac Apps that can join multiple IM Services.
    I believe Adium now uses a link to MeBeam to do Video Chats (I have not tested this)
    See my Comments to Mackural about what is possible with GoogleTalk names.

  • I have two companies sending me indesign documents. One opens up and the dictionary is set to English. The other file opens at is in Hebrew, Not sure how to fix the Hebrew part and whether or not the fualt lies at my end or at the other end

    I have two companies sending me indesign documents. One opens up and the dictionary is set to English. The other file opens at is in Hebrew, Not sure how to fix the Hebrew part and whether or not the fault lies at my end or at the other end

    If only the language is Hebrew, you should correct it in the Paragraph and Character Styles.
    But in such a case I would expect more problems.
    If you are a creative cloud subscriber you should additionally install the InDesign version, English with Hebrew support:
    Go to the preferences of you CC.app. It is found behind the Gear Symbols on the top right.
    When the preferences open, go to the Apps section.
    Change the App Language to English with Hebrew support.
    Now you can install it. It will install on the very same place where your InDesign program is found some additional plugins, which will give you access to Hebrew functionality, like RTL text. Otherwise you will inherit in the document (and where you copy and paste it from such a document into another one). But now you can change or repair problems.
    Now repeatstep 1 + 2, but you need not to install your own language again. InDesign will now, when started, run in the language of your OS (when you have it installed in that language) but with more functionality to handle problems with Hebrew documents.
    The same steps you would have to do with Arabic or Asian documents. These languages will also add more plugins. But keep it limitted to those language you need. I have installed it that way, because I get sometime documen where the text flows the wrong direction or the numbers come up in Farsi digit, not in Arabic digits. For such purposes I need versions in languages I don’t understand myself.

  • Receiving pop ups to secure my files and when I log into any website i get directed to a site with a pop up regarding security.  I assume I have a virus and not sure how to fix it

    I am receiving pop ups to security sites to secure my files etc.  I assume I have a virus but not sure how to fix it.

    There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
    You may have installed one or more of the common types of ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it. It's been reported that some variants of the "VSearch" malware block access to the page. If that happens, start in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime, then try again.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
    If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, ask for further instructions.
    Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. It may have come from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
    Malware is also found on websites that traffic in pirated content such as video. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
    In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere  should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
    Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
              Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
    or
              Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
    if it's not already checked.

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.
    If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup copy, not good, then you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:

    If not this:
    iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
    If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    Then
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    Hi jodilynnf,
    When using Connection Doctor to see what is could be causing the issue, look for the red dots to let you know what is wrong. Then all you have to do is correct that information. You can double click on the section that is giving you issue and it will take you there. Most issues could be just password being entered incorrectly.

    Mozilla, like many other software companies, thoroughly test their software before releasing it to the public and I'm sure that no problem you are having is intentional.
    I do not work for Mozilla but I do have experience of releasing software for public usage.
    Firefox has no way of knowing what other software is already on your computer and with millions of combinations it isn't always possible to test for every scenario.
    You can go back to the old version of Firefox but that won't always solve your problem.
