When I click a link in Mail (Mac OS) Firefox opens two windows. The frontmost window is always blank. The other window shows the page to which the link pointed. I would like to avoid having two windows open.

Links from Mail open two windows. One is empty.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== In the past couple of weeks. I had not noticed this behavior previously

That is this bug:

    When I click on an Icon on my desktop to take me to a site (such as Google) I get a message that it could not find the location. Then it goes ahead and opens a Firefox window with the site anyway as if the message never happened. Then when I close the window I see that the message is still there. I have to close it separately. Any suggestions? Oh, and this only happens if Firefox is NOT already active. If I have another Firefox window open when I click on the Icon, it just opens as expected. This message appears no matter which site Icon I select. It did not happen before I upgraded to ver 9.0.

    Hello BassoonPlayer,
    Since you are using one of the the school's Macbooks, it is quite possible that the time and date are not properly set on the computer that you are using.  FaceTime will not work if you do not have the proper time zone set up for the location that you are in.  This past week, there were a two other Macbook users I've helped by simply telling them to set the Date/Time properly.  By the way, you described your problem very well, which makes it easier for us to help you.  Hope this solves your problem -- if not, post back and I can suggest other remedies.

    when I'm looking at my recent text messages on my phone, and I'm on the screen where I see a list of people I have texted.  I click on a name to open up the conversation, however it is blank and doesn't show the conversation even though we've been texting back and forth the day before.  So my question is how can I see the conversation?

    Try the following procedure:
    Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
    Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)

  • How come nothing happens when I click on an e-mail address?

    When I click on an e-mail address, the little Gmail window with a blank e-mail doesn't pop up and Windows Live doesn't pop up. I have the setting correct in my applications prefrences in Firefox. I also have Windows Live set as default. This only happens in Firefox because it works for IE.

    My problem was resolved when I disabled the FoxyProxy add-on that I had installed. Someone mentioned this in another forum and it worked for me.

  • Looking to run windows on my MBPro through Bootcamp or Parallels, but would like to use a downloaded Windows 7, is it possible to install without the Windows Disc?

    Looking to run windows on my MBPro through Bootcamp or Parallels, but would like to use a downloaded Windows 7, is it possible to install without the Windows Disc?
    Need to set up a workstation on my MBPro that will only run on Windows. Im willing to use Bootcamp or Parallels to see what works best. Need to get this set up this week to enable working from home on my MB - rural and hoping to buy Windows 7 online - am I able to get windows working through either bootcamp or Parallels without the actual Windows disc? Bootcamp set up guide calls for a disc.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    First, the answer to your question is yes, it IS possible to install Windows in Parallels without a disc, using an .iso image file.
    Boot Camp since OS X 10.8 also installs Windows without a disc: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4889551?tstart=0
    Parallels has complete documentation, series of forums, and a knowledgebase. You can also download the current release of Parallels 9 and try it for free for a few weeks before you decide to purchase it.
    The Parallels Desktop for Mac product page: http://www.parallels.com/products/desktop/
    The Desktop for Mac forums: http://forum.parallels.com/forumdisplay.php?58-Parallels-Desktop-for-Mac
    Documentation: http://www.parallels.com/support/desktop-virtualization/desktop/#c12970
    The Knowledgebase for Desktop for Mac: http://kb.parallels.com
    The primary difference between a Boot Camp installation and a Parallels installation is that in the Boot Camp installation, you're installing Windows into a separate partition on your internal mass storage device (hard drive or SSD) and then rebooting your Mac directly into Windows.
    In Parallels, you're always running OS X on the Mac and Parallels is running a Windows virtual machine.
    Not to get too technical here, but it is also possible for Parallels to run an installed Windows Boot Camp partition as a virtual machine. If you're evaluating system performance with a trial copy, that might be the way to go, because you only have to install Windows once on Boot Camp as a dual-boot system, then install Parallels Desktop and run the Boot Camp partition as the virtual machine.
    There is a performance difference between the two, with the Boot Camp Windows installation being faster, but without the convenience of running both Mac and Windows applications simultaneously offered by Parallels. Sometimes that convenience outweighs a performance hit.
    I can't give you more Mavericks and Parallels 9 specifics, because I'm currently running Windows 7 with Parallels 7 on OS X 10.8.5. Parallels 7 will not run on OS X 10.9 Mavericks.
    I've been using Parallels (to run a few old rarely-used WIndows applications with features that would require a steep learning curve and major expense to purchase and learn a similar Mac app) occasionally since Parallels 3 and Windows XP. With each new release of OS X, each new release of Parallels, and each new Windows release, there are ALWAYS 'early adopter' bugs that get worked out over time.

    Thanks to all for reviewing my question.  I am trying to avoid a possible disaster here, having to load about 90 cd's all over again.  If anyone knows, could you tell me what will happen if I download iTunes 9.0, and install it.  Will it copy all of my music into it, or fail to recognize it, or recognize 8.0 and just upgrade rather than replace it?  Thanks again.  Tom

  • I would like to avoid itunes change by itself metadata

    I would like to avoid itunes change by itself metadata such artist album, writer,comments,cover artwork. I don't want to use these informations but itunes provide to fill them even I didn't check the "find name tracks nor get album artwork". Thank you very much

    Perhaps I wasn't clear. iTunes does not get info from the internet unless you are ripping from a CD and it queries the Gracenote/CDDB database. Itunes is too stupid to update songs automatically once they have been added to your library.
    I saw the exact same thing as you described, hex numbers in the comments field such as "000B 0A4D  302C...."and it was caused by a WMP update and the settings going back to default. It also filled in composer information, Album Artist, and deleted the track x of y information.
    You may think itunes is doing it because these changes also show in itunes after WMP has done its work.
    If WMP is still doing this, make sure those options are turned off for all Windows user logins on the PC.
    Here are some older threads with the same problem

    Stop using one. Everything you've previously purchased from it has that Apple ID stored inside the file, which can't be changed.

  • My iPhoto library has suddenly disappeared from my computer. When i click on iPhoto it tells me to choose my library or create a new one. However no library option appears. I have searched the computer for the library but it does not seem to exist

    My iPhoto library has suddenly disappeared from my computer.
    When i click on iPhoto it tells me to choose my library or create a new one. However no library option appears. I have searched the computer for the library but it does not seem to exist anymore. I did not have time machine set up, so there is no back up. Is there any way i can retrieve my library?
    Here is a picture of what appears when i click on iPhoto:

    In terms of searching i have searched for photos on my finder. However, none of the photos that appear are from my iPhoto Library.
    Search with FindAnyFile. You can download it here:   http://apps.tempel.org/FindAnyFile/index.php
    Search for any file with "ThumbJPGSegment" in the name. If you added at least one image to your library, the library should contain a file with this name, see OldToad's post: Re: Since I updated to iPhoto 9.5.1, my library is not listed or available. How can I find it? Can I use the time machine to restore it?

    Hard to say but most likely you are not doing anything wrong but have some library corruption

    backup your iphoto library, depress the command and option keys, launch iPhoto and rebuild your database

  • Images on iPad started to mix album's pages order since last sync,the names order are correct I've tried to erase and put back album's but got worse because it failed to write some. I would like to avoid to ripristinate the iPad.

    ciao, I've got some problema with my Image reader app. Since last sync it started to mix pages order, pages that are correctly nominated and were dispalyed in the correct order since the last sync.  unfortunatelly I haven't a backup and I would like to avoid to ripristinate it as I would loose my App documents. I have already tried several time to erase all my albums and putting back, but it got worse and it fails to copy some albums. What can i do?

    Since your intention was to sell legit software, I'm sorry that you were as much a victim as your buyers were.  I don't know what else you could do except report it as others have suggested and pay your customers back.  Companies like Adobe don't have the resources to follow up on every individual case of piracy, but they should be interested in tracking down the sources of the big professional counterfeiting rings.  Judging from your description of the packages you sold and the cost of producing such packages, I assume they come from such a source.
    function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
    I'm from Seattle, so I didn't really think twice when the seller told me their source was a person who worked at Microsoft and had access to the "Microsoft store" (which is somewhat infamous here because of how cheap you can get software for if you have access). 
    I don't get the connection - you were selling Adobe software, not Microsoft software.

    No. The attached is the simplest way of modifying it to do as you want. I've

    You already are. You're making the arrays as you go along so only the memory
    needed for the data that's in the plot is in use at any one time. To do it
    without storing
    arrays at all you'd need to keep retrieving the data from
    the XYgraph, adding the new datapoint and writing it back. Messy and I
    suspect incredibly inefficient.
    You're going to use the memory in any case- a better option would be to
    pre-initialise an array and fill it slowly. At the end of each 24 hour block
    zap all the data and start again without destroying and recreating the
    arrays. Or if you're only doing the 24 hour wipes to save memory, simply
    start again at the start of the buffer woithout erasing the previous data
    and you always have 24 hours of data to liik at once the system's running.
    Do a search for keywords like "pre initialise" or "circular buffer" on
    ni.com
