Two issues: Mail dotcom is now telling me to enable java in my browser and firefox has issues w/duckduckgo search engine. I am not allowed 2 instal DDG n search

2 issues: After a windows update on 5 10 2012, maildotcom says I need to enable java in my browser, when as far as I can tell, it is.
Second issue is, I am not able to add duckduckgo as my preferred search engine. I get a pop up in search tool add-ons that says "sorry, you need a Mozilla based browser to install a search plug in."
Why and how can these irritations be fixed?

'''''NoScript''''' 
*To add a site to the NoScript "whitelist" ('''always allow''') --> when on the site, click the NoScript icon and choose "Allow ''site''"; the site will be placed on the NoScript Options > Whitelist (non-italicized).
*If you click "Temporarily allow ''site''", the site will be allowed during the Firefox current session (until you close/exit Firefox) and will be placed on the NoScript Options > Whitelist (italicized) and will be removed from the whitelist when you close/exit Firefox.
*NoScript Whitelist --> click the NoScript icon, choose Options, click the Whitelist tab
'''''DuckDuckGo''''' (you probably would want 1 & 3 or 2 & 3) 
#This adds a DDG '''toolbar''' and says it adds the "''encrypted (HTTPS / SSL) version of DuckDuckGo in your '''search bar'''"'' --> https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/duckduckgo-ssl/
#You can '''add only an item to the Search Bar''' (without a toolbar) by choosing one of the items here --> http://mycroft.mozdev.org/search-engines.html?name=duckduckgo&opensearch=yes
#You can '''change the Location Bar search''' (replacing the default Google search) by following these instructions --> http://ilias.ca/blog/2012/03/how-to-make-firefox-use-duckduckgo/
This DDG page says there is some problem installing DDG plugins but does not explain the problem or who is responsible for fixing the issue

Try updating your QuickTime to the most recent version. Does that clear up the DEP errors in iTunes?

Please help, Thank you for this online support option

Imap wasn't designed for this kind of multi user situation. It assumes that you the account owner will be using it to manage one account via multiple devices. So once you have read a message it has been read, regardless of which device you were using at the time.
You appear to be describing a situation where you want more than one user to read each message, without anyone knowing if anyone else has read it or even dealt with it. Frankly, I can't imagine a set of circumstances where this workflow would make sense or be useful.
You can do various things such as manually setting messages as unread, or moving them from one folder to another to indicate that they have been processed, but much of this relies on users being thorough and conscientious.
You may need to be running your own server to do this sort of email message managing, if you really need to fork a message so it gets to multiple recipients. Managing which users see a particular message is a job for a server, not the end-user's email client.

Since upgrading firefox my tiscali (through Talk talk) email account will not allow me access to my emails saying 'You have undefined new mails in your inbox' and will not open the page. it works on Internet Explorer.

It thinks there is no information there! If I revert to 3.6 how long will security be maintained. At the moment I am opening Mozilla for web browsing but IE for my email account. I am not very PC literate so need simple answers.

Apparently TalkTalk mail will work with Firefox 4 and Firefox 5 ''if'' you set the browser to ''lie'' to TalkTalk mail by saying that you are still using version 3.6.
You can find the instructions for that in a post on the TalkTalk forums: [http://www.talktalk.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=185113#post2452787 Firefox 4 & TalkTalk webmail - Forums].
Note: when you open about:config the first time, it will display a warning message that you should be careful with the changes you make. That's definitely good to bear in mind.
Does it work?

Whenever I click on an email address it used to allow me to compose using the mail app. Now it opens up aol in my chrome browser. How do I change it back?

I am not sure how or when I changed the settings. I just noticed two days ago it began doing this.

Open Apple's Mail application. Go to the Mail menu and select Preferences. Select the General tab. Where it says Default Email Reader, select the Mail application rather than AOL.
Best of luck.

Firefox has issues after update

Every single time I update Firefox I wind up having issues with it! My current issue (which has also been an issue before and never satisfactorily resolved - I merely learned to live with it) is the complete loss of my homepage. Despite the fact the options show it to be set correctly, it now opens the last page I had from my previous session.
I know you're going to tell me that everything looks fine so try to uninstall/reinstall, or fiddle with my preferences file; all the usual panaceas, but I'm having none of it! This problem happens EVERY.SINGLE.TIME I update FF!!!! That is ridiculous and it needs to stop. As this is a common issue with so many users it is something that should get fixed long before any pretty little visual adjustments and other such nonsense.
Another issue that constantly comes up is the lack os saved preferences. I will go for months with the damn browser not saving my preferences and then, boom! suddenly some random day it will start doing what I want it to and then, just as fast, y'all will come out with another update and I'm back to the same old problems!
Look, I like FF, it's my favorite browser. I just really need for it to work like it's supposed to EVERY TIME I OPEN IT! Is there a fix that doesn't require me to wipe my hard drive? Seriously, this is getting waaaaay old!

Hello JaneDoe1651, check if you have any issues in [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode safe mode].
also, in your system details it seems that you have in your [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox profile] folder a [http://kb.mozillazine.org/User.js_file User.js] file. The user.js file does not exist by default. If you create the file, forget it, if you have not created, then try to delete the User.js file, to see if the problem goes away (some programs create the file also).
thank you

I need to change my e-mail address in the app store to enable me to get updates and buy more. How does this happen??

I need to change my e-mail address in the app store, how does that work??

On apple website, seraching on support, the article HT1918 explains.
Log into your apple ID and edit your personal information, where email can be changed as well. All applications as itunes stores, apple store and icloud use this same apple ID, so be aware of this.
I hope I was helpful !

HT1923 I am using windows 7 and have upgraded itunes to 11. Now when I open my music library in itunes and click on a song it says "original file could not be found" Over 2000 songs come up this way and locate does not seem to work. Before the upgrade all

With Windows 7 I upgraded itunes to 11. Now in my itunes library, when I click on a song "original file could not be found" comes up. This happens with over 2000 songs, but it seems to be ones I recorded from cd's. Locate does not seem to work. Has anyone else had this problem?

Highlight a song that is supposedly missing, press CTRL+I to Get Info, say no when asked to locate the file, then look at the summary tab. Where does iTunes "think" the file should be? Where is it really? You may need to give a configuration file a minor tweak.

I did something, and now a Bing toolbar is stuck on my browser, and also the top tool bar with "file, tools, help" and stuff like that is gone. What do I do?

I was downloading something, and it shoved the stupid Bing toolbar, which I can't remove now. Also, I accidentally removed the toolbar on the very top of the browser with "file, help, tools, ect." I'm kind of technologically impaired, if you haven't noticed.

Hello Greg.
You can uninstall unwanted extensions by going into Tools > Add-ons > Extensions.
You can select which toolbars to see by going into View > Toolbars. Also, you can reset your interface by going into View > Toolbars > Customize... > Restore default set.

Robohelp and Firefox display issues

I am using Robohelp 11, generating a Webhelp output. When I display the help in Firefox, the TOC is missing. This works fine in IE and Chrome. This also worked fine back in December, I believe when I had FF v34.05 installed, now with v35.0, the TOC/Index/Search info from my help systems is missing. Either let me go back to v34.0.5 or fix this asap. I need this for hundreds of customers!

Thanks. I have had this problem in the past with IE, have been given a java script to add to my help and it solved it!

I can't send emails and Safari has issues

I am unable to send emails from one of my mail accounts. This occurs every so often. I have tried what Mail Help suggests, however, it is not successful. I have tried taking all accounts online and I have changed the port numbers in advanced settings. What else should I try?
On another note, my Safari has problems. Whenever I want to download something (including the new Flash player or Google Chrome), Safari will begin the download and then will crash. What can I do to resolve these problems? Thanks!

Try these steps and see if they help.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
If that doesn't help, close all aps and then try settings, contacts and mail again.
To close all apps - Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus (-) sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

Ive got CS6 and it has issues with ariel font

since getting CS6 ive had issue with typing words. i found out PHS dosent like the ariel font so removed this from my libarys. font book and PHS. did the crash report and everything the blogs said to do to remove a font but my layouts keep jumping when i type, the type weither its times, apple chancey etc changes to symbols and ^:" . jumps the layout from big to small and is really annoying . help please. im running 10.6.8 on an Imac.. i used ariel for everything and have had to change to myrad pro but this makes no diffence..what can i do to fix a courpted font that dosent exist in my computer?

I've just done a restore (it asked if i wanted to restore with the back up so I said yes) but it is exactly the same. The 'slide to unlock' doesnt slide. It was working perfectly earlier today! Do you think a system restore without the backup would make any difference?
Thanks for your help, it is very much appreciated.
