When i click on a weblink, VCL opens instead of browser.. !

Somehow my settings got messed up. When i click on a link, say in an email, instead of my browser opening the web page - VCL opens up. How do I reset this?

Hi kyraz,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. This article has steps on setting Safari back to the default web browser:

Choosing a default web browser
Open Safari (/Applications).
From the Safari menu, choose Preferences.
Click the General button.
Choose your desired browser from the "Default web browser" pop-up menu.
Cheers,

With FireFox as my default browser, I create a shortcut on the desktop as per instructions in 'help' but when I click on the shortcut it opens in a browser which is not even running.

Make absolutely certain that FireFox is designated as your default browser.
Do this: Tools / Options / Advanced / Check Now / correct the setting
OR right click on any shortcut icon / Open With / Choose Default Program / select desired Browser / check Always... box / OK

All of my adobe docs now show up as white items instead of the regular red pdf doc they used to show up as. When I double click on the pdf doc, it opens in the web browser, however, I cannot view the doc from the browser either.

When I click on a link, it opens in a new window but the window is BLANK and I can't type anything. I have firefox 3.5.2

when I click on a link to open something in a new window, it opens a new window but it's blank!!! it's driving me nuts and I did update Firefox, but since I thought that was the problem I decided to install an older version of Firefox instead. please help!!!

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
There are other things that need attention.
Your above posted system details show outdated plugin(s) with known security and stability risks that you should update.

# Java Plug-in 1.6.0_06 for Netscape Navigator (DLL Helper)

Could someone help me restore my photos?

Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Hi aldamtgf,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If Messages is only displaying a white screen when you open it, first force close the application using this method:
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app's preview up to close it.
These steps come from this article:
iOS: Force an app to close

If Messages still does not open normally, restart your iPhone next:

When I click on Safari Icon it opens,but under the desktop picture.How can I get it on top of it?

When I click on Safari Icon it opens,but under the Desktop picture.How can I get it on top,so I could see it?

I would open a guest account and see if the problem persist in this new enviroment.
Boot into Safe Boot Mode and see if the problem is present, this turns off third party plug-in's and extentions.
This will give us something to go on and recommend the next step.

After waking from sleep, my iMac (Lion) is unresponsive. The mouse moves, but when I click things it won't open them.

After waking from sleep, my iMac (Lion) is unresponsive. The mouse moves, but when I click things it won't open them.
This has happened EVERY time the iMac goes to sleep for the last few days.. the only way I have found to resolve the issue is to manually restart the computer each time via the button on the back of the iMac.
Any and all help is appreciated!
Thanks

FWIW, I never sleep my machines or their HDs, just their displays and never have an issue waking up the displays, usually run 24/7. Give that a shot.

Have downloaded iso 7.0 to my iphone 4s everything works except when i click on itunes store it opens but there is no content there

Have downloaded iso 7.0 to my iphone 4s everything works except when i click on itunes store it opens but there is no content there.Has anyone suffered the same glich or know a solution this problem?.Tanx

Answer is no.
If you want the iCloud backup you have to have n internet connection, thus WiFi.
The not working WiFi has happened with quite a number of users.
It is not exactly clear what is the cause but there are suggestions to clear it up:
Some people have had success by removing an apostrophe from the iPhone name. If your iPhone is called something like “John’s iPhone” then this might work. Go to Settings > General > About > Name and change it to something with no apostrophe.
Some people have reported success by putting the iPhone into Airplane mode and then going to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings, but the problem may return.
You could also try going to Settings > Control Center and disable Access on Lock Screen then turn your iPhone off and on again.
Make sure that your router firmware is up to date.
Try backing up your iPhone and then restoring it. Check how to factory reset an iPhone for details.
If nothing is working for you, try contacting Apple or take your iPhone into an Apple Store.
Succes, Lex

At this point I would contact iTunes by:

iTunes > iTunes store > connecting and downloading > movie rentals > chat or email with iTunes.
They should tell you what to do or how to fix it.
