When I click the home button, it takes me to my home page AND opens a blank tab. How can I get it to stop opening the new tab!
I have igoogle as my hompage. When I click the home button, it will open my igoogle page but also open up a blank tab as well. Firefox didn't always do this, it just started. Maybe when I upgraded to the 5.0. I've tried looking in the options and I can't find something there and there doesn't seem to be a solution on the web. How do I get it to stop doing that?

Regardless you will have to restore the iphone. -

The way I got around the situation was to write a custom folder action and attach it to my Downloads folder. The good thing about this is that it works irrespective of the browser du jour I'm using.
This way you can define any filetype you're interested in to auto-open when a file is created in the Downloads folder (or any other folder of your choosing).
It's not that tricky to add. I think I posted the code here many moons ago so I'll try and track it down...
Edit: It was a post to macosxhints.com that I last linked to: http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20050122214044554#comments
Hope some of that helps. -
How can I get firefox to stop moving the typing cursor to my homepages' search engine automatically?
What usually happens is when I open firefox I'll usually start typing in the url bar or in the browser search engine to the right of url bar. The problem is that while I'm in the middle of typing, firefox will move my cursor to the homepage's search engine. This gets annoying after awhile because I'll have to stop and reclick where I was typing at (sometimes it'll even move it back!). Is there a way to disable this so that firefox won't try to relocate my typing cursor every time a new page loads?
You can set to open a blank page on opening Firefox and click the Home button if you want to see the Home page. You can also click ESC to stop loading the page before typing in the location bar.

I'm just tired of waiting on this inept device and it's underserved iTunes counterpart being unable to deliver enough bandwidth to load a show within a reasonable amount of time. I'm a big Apple fan and an equally big critic. This whole rig is a big FAIL so far, Apple. There is nothing ON DEMAND about the iTunes Store at this point. Netflix and YouTube work better on Apple TV than their own iTunes Store! And, this has been going on for a few years now, unremedied, and is only getting worse with more people buying these devices! I do not reccommend this device to people like I used to.
The good news is, that iTunes will give refunds about 85% of the time if I explain my problem the way I have here. SO, ATTENTION: EVERYONE WITH AN APPLE TV: If you have this same issue with iTunes Store not properly serving your paid content, do not hesitate to ask for your money back. It's the least they can do for the amount of life wasted waiting for a show to load. Not to mention, all the disappointments with the kids at bedtime and when my wife and I want to just relax and turn something on.
Bottom Line: ITUNES IS UNDER-SERVED!!!

There is a massive conspiracy by cable and DSL ISPs against Apple taking away TV viewers. Is it possible the ISPs are somehow limiting or buffering the data packets coming through the port(s) employed by iTunes Store? Like I say, with me and many others on this forum, the problem lies solely with iTunes Store. Youtube, Netflix, Podcasts and everything else generally serve up just fine. The iTunes Store, however, is a consistent failure. Something that seems unusual for Apple not to address, being so customer-centric and all.
Please share any links or insights you have here so the faithful might get to the bottom of this incredibly annoying problem. I WANT MY ATV!There is a massive conspiracy by cable and DSL ISPs against Apple taking away TV viewers.
Most networks are overloaded and operating at full capacity. However, a solution is coming.
Technology experts are working on a movie storage system where YOU have physical possession of the movie.
This system stores the movie digitally on an optical disk system that will not be dependent upon a congested, complicated, and fragile network.
Because all of the data is stored only a few feet from your television, all the bottlenecks are removed. Performance and reliability are virtually flawless.
Further, the system will not utilize any form of security codes, authentications, or passwords. Once the optical disc is purchased it can be moved around freely at will, and can even be lent or given to friends and neighbors with zero hassles. -
How do I get the numbers program to type a numerical date across the top row? It wants to change it to Dec. 13 instead of 12/13.
Amy,
I hope that you can forgive Numbers for converting the date you enter as 12/13 into the default format of "December 13, 2011", one that is popular with many users.
You can change to any of the supported date formats by using the Cells Inspector, Date and Time options.
Select the top row of cells and use the inspector to set the format. You may do this before or after making the entries.

Even tho' I've set options for Firefox to delete history when it closes, it still remembers my open tabs and tries to reinstate them the next time it starts. This causes two problems: 1) it takes longer for Firefox to close, such that if I start it again a few sec later it is still running and won't restart; 2) it sometimes reopens websites I am no longer want when it next starts. The latter also makes the last sites I visited visible to the next user, which I (and I suspect most other users) want to avoid. I would like to turn this feature off since it is far more of a problem than a benefit!
@cor-el
I have the same problem.
My settings are already configured to "Show a blank page". It does show a blank page normally, but when FF crashes, it attempts to reload all the tabs from the previous session when it restarts. My version is: Firefox/3.6.13, and I'm running XP sp3 if that matters. -
How can I get Firefox to stop causing "The connection was interrupted"?
I've recently upgraded to Firefox 3.6.22 on my MacOSX 10.5.8 system. I connect to the internet via GoogleWifi. That connection now consistently fails immediately after Firefox launches when there is no Cache (I clear it every time I Quit from Firefox). Safari can make the connection, but Firefox consistently reports: "Problem loading page." "The connection was interrupted." Attempting to "Try Again" does no good, it still fails.
This is not helpful because 7.0.1 does not meet my System Requirements. There is no Mac OS X 10.4 version, and I always install the same version on all my systems. I've also read several reports of "problems" with 7.0.1, and wouldn't trust it on my 10.5 (Leopard) system.

HOW can I get a GOOD copy of the iTunes software for my desktop?
I solved MY corrupt firmware file problem!
A little background- I deleted all Apple, iPod, and QuickTime software from my desktop PC and reloaded iTunes for the (I don't know how many) time. Same thing! Downloaded it again and used the "erase iTunes" option then reloaded again and had the same result. I then cranked up my old laptop and when I got to the Apple website, I was offered an opportunity to download QuickTime and took it. It came with iTunes if I wanted, so I took that too. After the download, I plugged in the Nano and it restored to Windows format. I did not want it to sync to the laptop, so I took it to the desktop and was able to sync with Nano and downloaded my tunes. TALK ABOUT HOKEY!
WHY does the restore program have to be resident on MY PC or MAC anyway? Seems like I could just as simply download a current copy from Apple every time I want to restore.
WHY doesn't Apple do something about this problem and let users know about the solution? Do they not want to grab a share of the Windows business? Here is an excellent opportunity!
Now for my question.
HOW can I get a GOOD copy of the iTunes software for my desktop? I now know it works! Is there a hidden file or folder I should delete before I make my next attempt to cleanup and download? Why isn't this information public?
I spent over 30 years in the DP industry. PC is not my area of expertise, but this must be the most frustrating experience of my years.
desktop Windows XPI THINK I have solved the problem. Can't be 100% because I don't want to try a restore. At least the Apple home page lites up correctly with quicktime now. It hadn't in the past.
Thank you for your assistance. - LRB

How can I get a book to open in my nook app, it downloaded, and installed, it just want open, I have never had this problem before.
This is entirely my complaint.
I have to sit without useable internet for 5 days when there is no fault, before anyone does anything about it ? BT visit the village to do something for another customer, mess up my perfectly working broadband, and then refuse to do anything about it for 5 days. And I pay full price during that time. Let's just hope they don't come back to do something else within those 5 days !!!
There isn't a fault with the line, it is perfectly stable. I just need somebody to use common sense and set the IP profile back to what it was.
If the system is so clever, it could at least try moving off 135k to 512k say after an hour or so.
I will try using that link though and see if somebody can do something !!
Frustrated is not the word ! If I ran my business like this I'd have no customers left. I'm pretty sure that's not the first time somebody has posted that on here -
When I move a RAW file from IPhoto on my macbook pro to desktop or Photoshop it changes to a jpeg and reduces in size. How can I get the Raw file to move across?
I create separate folders based on the year and then the actual date of when I take images. You can make those folders anywhere on any hard drive that is connected to your Mac whether internal or external. I also use the Photoshop Photo Downloader that is included with Photoshop/Bridge and it will create the date folder so all I do is create a Year folder.
Open Bridge or click on the Bridge icon in PS and in the File menu item in Bridge select "Get photos from Camera". It can be a camera connected to your Mac or a memory card from a camera. A window will open and you then select the camera or memory card. Set the location they will be downloaded to, just the folder and you can Browse to a folder that you created, then in the "Create Subfolders drop down select what date stamp you want to use or or custom name or not to create subfolders at all.
I've never cared for iPhoto one bit. I tried it but found it way to restrictive. It likes to have full control over how you interact with your images.
