When I create a shortcut on Mozila, my computer still tries to use Internet Explorer to access it. How do I change that?

I had a problem with IE and removed it. Now I cannot put it back. Mozila works fine if I type in the address to every site I visit. I cannot seem to create a shortcut to use thru Mozila. I created a shortcut, but every time I click on it, my computer tries to use IE. Help.

A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

    I created an album in iPhoto and every time I click on slideshow it plays the pictures backwards from the order in the album. How do I change that?

    When running a slideshow from an album it will not run properly if the photos are sorted manually.  Sort them by any of the other options, title, date, rating, etc. and it will play correctly.
    Send a report of the problem to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html.
    If you must sort them manually create the slideshow in the slideshow mode in iPhoto, not from an album.

    You can do it from the iPad or from a computer, whichever is easiest:
    Set up an Apple ID in iTunes - Apple Support
    And then set up the iCloud account for that Apple ID:

  • ClosedChannelException when using Internet Explorer

    Hi,
    I have a webservice that I deployed into the standalone OC4J. I then enabled https according to the instructions given in http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25221_04/web.1013/b14429/configssl.htm !
    When I'm calling the webservice via Firefox or Opera, everything works well.
    But when I'm using Internet Explorer, I get this Exception:
    "Exception in NIOServerSocketDriver:selectForRead" (java.nio.channels.ClosedChannelException)
    at java.nio.channels.spi.AbstractSelectableChannel.configureBlocking(AbstractSelectableChannel.java:252)
    and shortly after it the following:
    "Exception in SelectionKey cancel"
    (java.lang.NullPointerException)
    at oracle.oc4j.network.ServerSocketAcceptHandler$IdleHandlers.closeIdleHandler(ServerSocketAcceptHandler.java:583)
    Both Exceptions come randomly and every trial on different program- and timesteps, so there's no real tracing possible!
    Can anyone please help me to understand what happens there and how to solve this problem.
    Thank you very much!
    Sebastian

    Hi,
    Thank you very much!!! But I have the problem, that I have no such file! :-(
    I'm currently trying to test my application in the standalone OC4J provided by JDeveloper. I didn't found that file (httpd.conf) in the whole directory! Is it possible to set the line's parameters elsewhere or to create such a file and if, where do I have to do so and how do I have to integrate it into the server's "environment" ?

  • Etting a white screen when viewing slide show using internet explorer

    When I or my clients view a slide show I created in Lightroom 1.4 using Internet Explorer we often get a white screen instead of the slide show. When we view the same using Firefox it works perfectly. I have downloaded Adobe flash reader and it doesn't help. I am including a link to my site if anyone would like to check it out. http://www.ajs-photography.com/ViewWedding.html . Is there a setting in Lightroom that I'm missing or something wrong with the way IE is configured. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

  • How do I access "Firefox is NOT compatible with this application. For best performance, please use Internet Explorer 5.0 and above...." web sites; when I try to download any alternate browser, then a warning that alternate is "imcompatable with your opera

    How do I access websites that warn: "Firefox is NOT compatible with this application. For best performance, please use Internet Explorer 5.0 and above...."? When I try to download any alternate browser, all I get is another warning that the alternate is "not compatible with your operating system." Is Firefox preventing this? The site listed below is a job application site. I've had this same problem with other job application sites also.
    == URL of affected sites ==

    There should be a User Agent Switcher menu item under Tools, which gives you the browser names you can impersonate.
    The menu item name changes to the browser UA you are presently using.
    There is also a User Agent Switcher button, you can add it using View -> Toolbars -> Customize, and dragging the button to your toolbar.
    See http://chrispederick.com/work/user-agent-switcher/features/ and http://chrispederick.com/work/user-agent-switcher/help/
    You can just start trying IE versions (or the versions it says on the site) until it lets you in.

  • SharePoint 2013 - document libraries and newsfeeds are visible when viewed using Internet Explorer running on the server but not from any other machine

    On a single Windows 2012 R2 server I have installed SQL 2012 and SharePoint 2013 SP1 with the latest update roll ups. When I remote desktop to the server using the farm and site collection admin account  and open page http://server_name_here using
    Internet Explorer, I'm able to see newsfeeds and document libraries.
    If I connected to a separate Windows 7 machine as  the farm and site collection admin account  and open page http://server_name_here using Internet Explorer, I'm able to view the SharePoint pages except I cannot see any newsfeeds or document libraries.
    There's just blank space where they should be. I have repeated this process on several other machines that are not the server and get the same result on every machine (I've tried other servers, desktops, adding the SharePoint site to the trusted sites list
    in IE, even using firefox). I'm using the same account as I did when I logged onto the server directly. Any thoughts as to what's going on?
    Thanks!

    Thanks for the idea, Harsh. What am I looking for?
    It is currently set to the default of http://server_name and http://server_name:port_number (the latter is for Central Admin).
    When I have access to the server, I have always done so the same way, using http://server_name. This was true when I access it from the desktop of the server itself and when I tried to access it from other desktops and servers (the machines where I had the
    issues with the libraries and feeds not showing up). Are there other values I should add?
    I have not tried to add http://server_FQDN as we don't plan on using that to access it but if you think it will help I would be happy to add it.

  • My AppStore id is my apple id n password which is good when purchasing. But when I am updating from update option it ask for a password. The user id I see there is not mine, it's different. How do I change that to my apple Id? Please help me resolve .....

    My AppStore id is my apple id n password which is good when purchasing. But when I am updating from update option it ask for a password. The user id I see there is not mine, it's different. How do I change that to my apple Id? Please help me resolve  this issue. I have tried resetting it but nothing... Either I'm doing something wrong or....

    I believe the issue is with the Apple ID that was used to purchase the App. If you download an App that was purchased under a different Appple ID then all updates will also be linked to the original purchaser's Apple ID. Your Apple ID is the the same ID as your iTunes, iCloud, etc. Some folks use different ID for the different Apple sites. No need for that One ID for all Apple Sites, and if someone else buys an App using their ID and they(you) download that App onto your device and that App requires an update it will ask for the purchasers Apple ID. This happens a lot when folks sell their iPad or give it to someone else and leave some purchased(free) Apps on the iOS device. You cannot change the original ID the App was purchased under. A suggestion would be if someone else has an App that you like but do not want to pay for use their ID or in the future have them gift the App to you.

  • When I connect an external drive I'd like to run a program which is on it. How could I do that?

    When I connect an external drive I'd like to run a program which is on it. How could I do that?
    I tried automator, but without success.
    Thanks

    Interesting question.  Others have provided the direct answer (no, massive security hole), and a little time with a search engine finds various existing discussions of autorun-related topics (eg: here and here and here), and a link to the Do Something When tool, and there is the DeviceListener example in the Xcode kit and to adding a folder action where the volumes are mounted.  See the topics for details.   Haven't tried this stuff, though.

  • My nephew and I use the same iTunes account and when I add an app it is loaded on to his iPhone and vice versa... How do I make that stop?

    My nephew and I use the same iTunes account and when I add an app it is loaded on to his iPhone and vice versa... How do I make that stop? I have already unchecked the "Auto Update Apps" button. It happens with all purchases in the app store and on iTunes. HELP!

    I also think separate accounts is the way to go....if he is over 13yrs also remember if you do make an account for him and use your bank card all purchases will be charged to your card.

  • When I edit a song in itunes (i.e change the year) on purchased songs, the next time I return to itunes, the information has reverted back to the original information. How can I change that?

    When I edit a song in itunes (i.e change the year) on purchased songs, the next time I return to itunes, the information has reverted back to the original information. How can I change that?
    When I purchase ITunes music, and it is a song from a Greatest Hits album, the Year of the song shows the year the CD was released and not the year the song was released (i.e. a song may be from 1986, but the Greatest Hits album was released in 1999, so my songs in ITunes show 1999).    So, I go into each of those songs and change it to the year that I want to be displayed. As long as I don't exit out of ITunes, it will show the year that I changed it to (i.e. the 1986 year in this case). But if I exit out of ITunes and then return to ITunes, the year reverts back to 1999. The same happens if I change the genre of a song from, say 'Pop' to 'Alternative', it will revert back the next time I log in.
    Oddly enough, as soon as I right-click on that song to change it back, the year/genre that I had entered returns.
    How can I make it so my changes are permanently displayed as I want them?  This is pretty annoying when I try to find a song on my Ipod under a certain genre, but it doesn't appear in that genre because the incorrect information gets synched to the Ipod.

    Make sure that these two options in Edit > Preferences > Store are turned off:
    Then exit iTunes and open it up again.  Your metadata entries should then be persistent - with these options checked iTunes will be comparing what you have with the information held in the iTunes Store, and will overwrite with the latter for Store purchases (and if you have iTunes Match).  If you have any iOS devices you should also turn off Show All Music under Settings > Music.
