Using safari,clicking on anything for example on google tabs and links it goes to download

last night on my imac, when i opened safari,home page was google, if i clicking on any tab or link in google web page ,straight away safari starts download, although i didnt clicked on anything downlodable, i wonder why this is happening and how to fix it? many thanks
also minimising any page to dock bar is obviosly ver slow

once you launch safari,google home page, if you click on news,shopping, maps,gmail tabs, each of these will go to download something and you can see download activity going on depends on the size,if you try to minimize any page it will drag very slowly to dock bar

HT201303 How can you tell which devices used the Apple ID? For example: "twoPads, 2 iPhones and 1 computer used your Apple ID ?"

I believe my kid gave somebody my password to download something. And I want to know who? Can it say For example: "2 iPads, 2 iPhones and 1 computer used your Apple ID ?"

Only if they went to the trouble of setting their device up as a "Managed Device" on your ID.
Change your password.

Whenever I use something which uses Java (for example, an online game) and then click the address bar, it seems that the address bar is disabled.

I cannot highlight or type in the address bar unless I interact with another program and then switch back to Firefox. When I interact with Java again, the same problem persists! Help!
Sorry, I didn't know what category this should be under, but it's urgent.

Perform the suggestions mentioned in the following articles:

Check and tell if its working.

I use Safari as my browser. When on a site and I click on a PDF file I get a black screen and a notice that "Adobe Reader blocked for this website". However, this does not happen if I use Firefox.

I use Safari as my browser. When on a site and I click on a PDF file I get a black screen and a notice that "Adobe Reader blocked for this website". However, this does not happen if I use Firefox.

Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
Step 1
If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to print by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar may appear under the cursor. Click the printer icon.
Step 2
There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
Step 3
If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
and check the box marked
Allow Plug-ins
Then click
Manage Website Settings...
and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
Step 4
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
Step 5
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others — I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
Step 6
Do as in Step 3 with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari.

When i start my itunes, it start immediately but than i am not able to click on anything for at-least 20 minutes.

When i start my itunes, it start immediately but than i am not able to click on anything for at-least 20 minutes.
I have a lot of songs on there from my local drive and also a network drive which is connected to my local hhome network.
Now before when i use to load itunes while it get frozen it used to collect information on 3 songs and i knew their names so went ahead and deleted them but now i dont see it collecting any information and just frozen.
I just got an iphone and also noticed that once i am syncing my iphone and than i cancel the sync it will again freeze.
What could be causing this, please tell me a way where i dont have to erase my library and re scan it.
One important note - My iTunes Media folder location is on my Network Drive. Can that be the reason?
Let me know.
Thanks in Advance,
Jay

The "tap to click" function isn't enabled until a user logs on. You should be able to use the "physical click" (push down on the front left of the trackpad) in the login screen.

What Mac model do you have? You might be able to upgrade the OS to Tiger 10.4 or Leopard 10.5.
Even browsers for Tiger 10.4 will get the update message.
You could try a newer browser than Safari, which is obsolete, by downloading Firefox v2.0.0.20 at http://www.oldapps.com/mac/firefox.php

Can I connect my Mac (Mac OS X) with other machine (Windows OS) on same LAN using telnet in terminal? For example, telnet ip address of other machine

Can I connect my Mac (Mac OS X) with other machine (Windows OS) on same LAN using telnet in terminal?
For example, telnet <ip address of other machine>
I m a networking student and I have learned to connect 2 machines on Red hat Linux OS on same Ethernet LAN which has same subnet mask. As Mac OS X is also a linux based OS I m trying to connect my Mac with my friends windows based machine using telnet <ip address of his machine>. However, I get a message "unable to connect to remote host".
Can anyone please tell me is this the problem because of different OS or it is something different!
Please reply...it will of great help..

The machine you're trying to connect to needs a Telnet server running on it - telnetd listening on port 23 (usually).
Incidentally, Mac OS X is not a Linux based OS, it is based on BSD Unix.

LATINOS ARE SCREWED with final cut pro x. Everytime I use tildes like á for example. FCPX freezes and restarts.... really is a bummer. And on a side note, Color Curves? 3 Wheel Color Wheels? XML support? Can´t wait for multicam. God Bless!

With final cut pro x. Every time I use tildes like á for example. FCPX freezes and restarts.... really is a bummer. PLZ FIX. Here in Colombia I can not use FCPX for projects which involve names or text. (ALL PROJECTS)
And on a side note, Color Curves? 3 Wheel Color Wheels (color board is great, but i didnt read a 400 page book on 3 wheel color correction for nothing) ? XML support? Can´t wait for multicam. God Bless!
FCPX IS GREAT. It really is. Just a few features are required.....

I think the idea that an acute accent can also be called a "tilde" is total nonsense.

After updating my Mac mini gets to the login screen, but I can't click on anything. The arrow is there and I can move it around, but doesnt allow me to click on anything

I have a Logitech mouse and keyboard that worked fine before the update. Now I can't get past the login in screen, because I'm unable to click on anything. I have the arrow and it moves around,but won't click on anything

Try using the arrow keys to move around. Press enter to the account you want to go to. I don't know if you can access the password bar after this... it's all I know for now.

I have purchased apps in the past and now every time I download a new app my IPad notifies me that they cannot be purchased at the time. For example, tap tap revenge and 11 others cannot be purchased at the time. How can I get rid of it?

When opening iTunes, I get the following error message: the registry setting used by the iTunes drivers for importing an burning CDs and DVDs are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please reinstall iTunes.

I have reinstalled iTunes twice and still get the message.
Any clues??
Thank you.

I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

If you have accidentally removed bookmarks then use "Organize > Undo" in the bookmarks manager (Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks) to get them back.<br />
The Organize button is the first of the three buttons on the toolbar in the Library (Bookmarks Manager).<br />
That only works if you haven't closed Firefox.

I am having sound issues with Pottermore while using Safari 6.1. I once muted the sound and now can't unmute it even though the icon tells me it's unmated. I can hear samples of audio books in the store section. Any ideas?
