When I go to my safari settings I cannot turn off my "Block Pop-ups for a site.  It is stuck in the on position.

I have certain websites that use popups that I need to be able to use.  When I go to Safari settings I cannot turn of the "block pop ups" setting.  It is grayed out and only in the on postion.

You will need to have the hold switch replaced.

  • I can allow pop-ups from certain sites in Tools/Settings, why then can I not also block pop-ups from certain sites since Firefox doesn't always manage to block them?

    Whenever I visit, for instance, merriam-webster.com an ad from groupon invariably pops up in a new window.
    OK, so Firefox does not manage to block it although I have this option checked in Tools/Settings/Content.
    But why can I not enter the URL of the groupon ad and manually block it?
    I can allow pop-ups from sites of my choice in Tools/Settings/Content, I think I should also be able to block sites?

  • My pop-up blockers stays on, but when I would click something a pop-up a bar would come across asking if I wanted to "allow pop-ups for this site" or view a specific block pop-up. I accidentally clicked on "do not ask again". How do I get the bar back?

    My Firefox is set up to delete cache, and all history upon closing. But when I restarted my Firefox, or manually deleted everything, nothing worked. Is there a way to reset these? Or do I have to completely uninstall and reinstall Firefox? Even that might not work though.

    Please do the following.<br><br>
    #In the location bar, type '''about:config''' and hit Enter.<br><br>
    #In the filter at the top, type: '''keyword.URL'''<br><br>
    #Double click it and remove whatever's in there and replace it with http://www.google.com/search?q= and then click OK.<br><br>
    #Close the tab
    The URL to add in "keyword.URL" becomes a link in this post, so right click it and choose "Copy Link Location" to copy it to the Windows clipboard. Then hit CTRL+V to paste it. Saves you having to type the whole thing.
    '''To reset your home page, do the following'''.<br><br>
    * Go to the site you want to set as your homepage.<br><br>
    * Click the Firefox button, go to '''Options '''| '''Options '''| '''General'''.<br><br>

  • When I try to open my Yahoo mail in safari, I get a message which states:" In order to use Yahoo mail, please turn Private Browsing off. Please go to Settings Safari Private Browsing, and turn off" The problem is my ipad does not a Private Browsing switch

    When I try to open my Yahoo mail in safari, I get a message which states:" In order to use Yahoo mail, please turn Private Browsing off. Please go to Settings>Safari>Private Browsing, and turn off" The problem is, my ipad does not a Private Browsing switchat this location.

    With iOS 7 on the iPad, you turn Private  Browsing on and off by tapping the URL field.  The screen that  opens up has your bookmarks on it.  In the bottom left corner is a hot button marked 'PRIVATE'.  Tap on the word 'PRIVATE' to turn private browsing on or off.  Yeah, there aren't any instructions anywhere that I can find to do this, and if you follow Yahoo's instructions, they don't work.  This doesn't happen with the previous Apple OS, and you can restore your iPad to the older OS.

    hope you didn't have GREEK keyboard selected
    If you did APple do not want to know that their upgrade has trashed your ipad
    search on  ios 7  ipad  greek keyboard
    to see other sufferers - if you had a greek keyboard then you need to set it to english/french etc
    to do that you need to unlock your ipad
    to unlock your ipad you need to re-set your keyboard
    to do that you need a greek keboard
    to get your greek keyboard back you need to unlock your ipad
    and so on and son
    thank you apple

  • My E pad has stopped directing me to my att/yahoo e mail. It gives me a notice that i must go to Settings, Safrai and turn off Private Browsing. I have tried for 2 days to find private browsing on my safrai site, and it is just not there.

    Forsome reason, after two years, my E Pad is refusing to go to my att.Yahoo e mail...It says to go to Settings Safari Private Browsing and turn off Private Browsing. There is not place on the Safrari page that gives me Private Browsing. It explains it as being dark when turned on, but no place to turn it on or off.  Also it seems to go to Yahoo Mail instead of Att..Yahoo when it gives me the above message....Any One know what todo?

    As of iOS 7, private browsing is not longer handled in the Settings app, but in Safari directly. The only Settings function for Safari that may impact this would be Block cookies.
    Private browsing is turned on and off in Safari using the button in teh lower left of the Safari screen (if you do not see this, tap the + icon in the upper right to pull up an empty tab).

  • When installing third party software, how do I temporarily turn off the factory installed virus sw and firewall?

    when installing third party software, how do I temporarily turn off the factory installed virus sw and firewall?  Is it necessary on a Mac to do so?  I come from the Windows world and am still in the learning curve on the Mac.

    Correct.  I have not installed ANY other software for anti-virus, etc.  I want to install a Synch app for my HTC phone to sych with MS Outlook 2011 installed on my Mac.    HTC will not synch with it otherwise.  That was really the basis for my question....if installing a non Apple app can be done without messing with factory settings on the Mac.  In Windows I remember that I needed to disable Norton and the Firewall in order for installation to occur. 
    Thanks.

  • It's my understanding that when traveling overseas, all i have to do is turn off cellular data to avoid high data charges.

    it's my understanding that when traveling overseas, all i have to do is turn off cellular data to avoid high data charges.

    With Airplane Mode you will not receive phone calls.  If you are just worried about Data Charges then just go to Settings>Cellular>Data 'Off'  This may also turn your iMessage off such that all your iMessages even in a WiFi environment go out as Text Messages.  If you still want to use iMessage from Apple device to Apple device in a WiFi network then go to Settings>Messages> and turn it back on after you have set Cellular Data to Off.  Ckuan is correct though about having some per minute received or outgoing call and text charges.  For one example, if you were traveling in Canada but didn't have a Canada Plan you would pay about 89 cents per minute and 50 cents per send / receive Text.

    If a reset doesn't work, try and force iPad into Recovery Mode:
    1. Turn off iPad. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, slide to turn off.
    2. Connect USB cable to computer
    3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
    5. Release the Home button
    6. Open iTune (make sure you have the newest version of iTune)
    7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
    8. Use iTune to restore iPad
    Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad

    It should be telling you to download the latest iTunes on your computer... you can't install iTunes on your iPhone.

    Hello My ipads Power button is not working properly when I press it once it shows option to turn off instead of locking and some other display problems like it suddenly lockes down or display disappears ...Please help. Thank You

    Thanks for that information!
    I'm sure I will be calling AppleCare, but the problem is, they charge for the phone calls don't they? Because I don't have money to be spending to be on the phone with a support service.
    In other things, it seemed like the only time my MacBook was working was when I had Snow Leopard without the 10.6.8 update download that was supposed to be done to prepare for OS X Lion.
    When I look at the information of my HD it says that I have 10.6.8 but that was the install that it claimed to have failed and caused me to restart resulting in all of the repeated problems.
    Also, because my computer is currently down, and I've lost all files how would that effect the use of my iPhone? Because if it doesn't get fixed by the time OS 5 is released, how would I be able to upgrade?!
