What is Firefox Beta,why do I want it, and is there a cost to me?

My original question says it all.

Firefox is free.
People who have previously installed a beta version of Firefox have been offered the Firefox 5 beta. If you do not want to be offered beta versions of Firefox you can uninstall Firefox 5 beta and then install the release version of Firefox. If you uninstall Firefox 5 beta do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.

Can anyone offer some advice i am looking to upgrade the OS system on one of my macbook pro's, currently running os10.4.11, I would like to upgrade to OS10.5? how would I go about this, and is there a cost, for what is an old operating system now?

Since your Mac probably came with 10.4, there is no longer a way to get 10.5 Leopard install media. IF it has the requirements, you may be able to upgrade to 10.6 Snow Leopard by buying the boxed install media at the Apple Store for $30.

What is Firefox Setup 3.6.10(2).exe and is it necessary?

What is the function of Firefox Setup 3.6.10(2).exe and is it necessary?
When I logged into Windows Live Hotmail today, I received a message to upgrade my Firefox browser by installing this programme. I am unable to find out any information about it on the Mozilla website.
I have downloaded to file, but am hesitant about installing it until I know more about it.

What makes Firefox better than Chrome?

Just curious.

Please see this article: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/central/
In addition, you can reconfigure the layout to your own taste. For example, you can move the tabs to below the location bar where you normally type in a web address if you want to. Chrome's layout however is set in stone.
Firefox also has an abundance of Add-ons which you can use to enhance your browsing experience. Here's the database: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/extensions/bookmarks/

"Use system settings" for Proxy is automatically enabled when opening Firefox. Why? I want to use "No Proxy".

When I open Firefox, it requires time to load pages. When I go in the networking, I activate "No Proxy" from "Use system settings", and each time I reopen, the System Settings is back, and the page load slow.

Hello serman77, check '''IF''' you have in your [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox#Windows 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 create the file then delete the User.js file''', to see if the problem goes away (some programs create and write in the file also).
'''If you have not a user.js file''' then see : [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved#Corrupt_or_damaged_prefs.js_file Corrupt or damaged prefs.js file]
thank you

I switched to Verizon ISP. They configured my pc (Win7) to make their tabs appear in Firefox. I do not want them, and I don't want to manually close them when I open Firefox. How do I delete them permanently, or block them from appearing?

They also appear in IE, and I don't want them there either, but that is not so important as I seldom use IE.

The paper you cite has nothing to do with the question I posed. It deals with the page(s) Firefox opens when it starts. My question is about all the little tabs shown at the top of that page -- put there by Verizon -- which I do not want! Before Verizon mucked with my computer only 1 tab showed up there when I opened Firefox: my start page. Now all kinds of tabs to Verizon pages show up there automatically. I want them banished!

What are the better IDE's for Mac (Java and C++)?

I'm switching over to Mac's here soon and I'm curious about which products are the best, from others' experiences, for developing Java and C++ applications. On Windows I used NetBeans and IntelliJ (although not as much), but I'm curious if there is Mac specific software that someone might recommend.

Both of the above work fine on Mac (I used IntelliJ exclusively for Java development). For C++ I use Qt Creator and sometimes Xcode.

When I updated to ios 5 I was forced to create a new Apple ID. Now my iTunes sync does not work properly. Why did it do this and is there a way to fix it?

I already had an iTunes account when I pushed the iPhone. After upgrading the OS to 5.0.1, I kept receiving an error message saying that my AppleID was invalid, even though it worked perfectly within iTunes on my PC. It seemed to want my email address as my "new" AppleID so I entered that, but it created a second ID. It seems my cloud account and the "phone" iTunes is attached to the newer ID and my "PC" iTunes account is attached to the older ID.
Now, when I try to sync iTunes, I don't see all of the songs I purchased, some sync and others appear to sync but are grayed out with the sync icon next to the title. The songs are still on my phone, but not in my iTunes library.
Is there any way to fix this and consolidate the accounts? Also, why did the upgrade force me to create a new AppleID? I haven't upgraded to the 4 or 5 phone because I'm afraid this is going to happen again and I'll have a third AppleID to contend with.
Thanks!!

There is no way to consolidate iTunes accounts.
Setting up an iPhone has never required creation of a new Apple ID.
You've apparently purchased content with both Apple ID's. Sign into the device with the correct Apple ID and sync the content.

HT4623 After I updated my iPad using my computer, it has started to lag a lot and run very slowly. Why is it doing this and is there any way to make it stop lagging?

I updated my iPad mini last night using my laptop (I usually update it on the iPad itself) and after the update, the iPad has been slow and laggy ever since. When I try to type something, it freezes up and may not actually show that i typed it for another minute or two. Even if I close all my apps and restart it, the problem is still there. Does anybody know what's going on and/or how to solve this problem?

What is the "other" component of my storage breakdown and is there a safe way to reduce it?

I have a MBP retina (mid 2012) running OSX Yosemite 10.10.3 with 250Gb of flash storage. I am constantly battling with limited space on my drive. Of the 250Gb, 103Gb is classified as "other". What is it and am I able to reduce some of it safely? I have a 1Tb external drive that has plenty of space if I am able to transfer any of that onto it.
Any help is much appreciated!!

For information about the Other category in the Storage display, see this support article. If the display seems to be inaccurate, try rebuilding the Spotlight index.
Empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. If you use iPhoto, empty its internal Trash first:
iPhoto ▹ Empty Trash
In Photos:
File ▹ Show Recently Deleted ▹ Delete All
Do the same in other applications, such as Aperture, that have an internal Trash feature. Then restart the computer. That will temporarily free up some space.
According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation—not the mythical 10%, 15%, or any other percentage. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of the data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
When Time Machine backs up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of recently deleted files. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown as Backups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself. If you followed bad advice to disable local snapshots by running a shell command, you may have ended up with a lot of data in the Other category. Ask for instructions in that case.
See this support article for some simple ways to free up storage space.
You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) or GrandPerspective (GP) to explore the volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one. Note that ODS only works with OS X 10.8 or later. If you're running an older OS version, use GP.
Deleting files inside a photo or iTunes library will corrupt the library. Changes to such a library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
ODS or GP can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
Back up all data now.
Install the app in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
Triple-click anywhere in the corresponding line of text below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
For ODS:
security execute-with-privileges /A*/OmniDiskSweeper.app/*/M*/* 2>&-
For GP:
security execute-with-privileges /A*/GrandPerspective.app/*/M*/* 2>&-
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. You'll be prompted for your login password.
The application window will open behind other open windows. When you scan a volume, the window will eventually show all files in all folders, sorted by size. It may take a few minutes for the app to finish scanning.
I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
When you're done with the app, quit it and also quit Terminal.

Uploading my site to Adobe Business Catalyst and I noticed that it turns all my text into images? Why does it do that and is there a way to prevent it from happening?

I don't mind that Muse does this upon uploading my website, but once my text becomes an image on my site, it creates a light halo around my text making it fuzzy. Is there a way to prevent Muse from changing my text into images?

Hello,
I believe you are using System fonts for the text in the site. I would suggest you to use either Web safe fonts or use self hosted font options.
Please refer to the links below to understand how to work with them.

I have downloaded firefox beta version on my galaxy y it shows that it installed on memory card but it occupy space on my internal memory why?

when the application shows 2.3 mb data and 20 mb other data stored on memory card why my 24 mb internal memory occupied by firefox beta.
why is it so big when opera mini is so small and efficient.
is it works on downloading like ucweb does.

hello atuljains, unlike opera mini firefox for android is a full-fledged browser and contains its own rendering engine. firefox uses as little RAM and storage as possible but there are limits & its requirements are similar to those of other full browsers like chrome or opera (not the mini version).

Why would I want Windows on my new MacBook Air?

I have a beautiful new MacBook Air and I'm running through all the Updates etc. Then I see Bootcamp which is supposed to help me install Windows. My question is, why would I want windows? Are there things that Windows can do that Mac can't do? Or do I just need to learn what the equivalents are of the old windows programs in my new operating system eg in windows i would use explorer to search the web - on my mac i use safari - are there equivalents to microsoft word and publisher and powerpoint just in Mac language and what are they called?

. My question is, why would I want windows?
I have no idea why anyone would.
Are there things that Windows can do that Mac can't do?
No.
are there equivalents to microsoft word and publisher and powerpoint just in Mac language and what are they called?
You can buy Microsoft Office for the Mac, but you should consider a number of better alternatives to Microsoft's bloatware. Some are free.
Consider
LibreOffice (donation-supported)
NeoOffice ($10 but older version is free if you can find it)
OpenOffice (donation-supported)
Numbers ($19.99)
Keynote ($19.99)
Pages ($19.99)
I use Numbers and Pages and have been completely Microsoft - free for years. Life is better without Microsoft.
