When I open my free aol email account, I keep getting redirected to a new open tab ad for Verizon Fios. Is there a way to block this in Firefox?

I tried SuperAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes but they didn't solve the problem. AOL email is the only place I'm having this problem and it's constantly happening while I have that email open. It will open up the same new tab time after time. Screen shot jpg will not upload but it shows 3 tabs for "FiOS Custom TV" with the following address - http://campaign.verizon.com/customizetv/?CMP=BAC-CON_2015-Q2_MM-ACQ-MZ2ACQQuizP3a_0576
Help?

I access my aol email through www.aol.com. When I got to my emails, another tab was automatically opening by itself and I was redirected to that newly opened tab with the page that had the Verizon Fios promotion/ad. This happened automatically and repetitively while I was trying to check my emails. (Note the multiple Verizon tabs in the screenshot attached to this inquiry)
This happened over the last 2 days while in my free aol email account. I did notice a Verizon ad at the top of my email inbox while this was happening. I never did click on or otherwise access the Verizon ad but was constantly redirected to the new page/tab while viewing my emails. I went to my aol email just now to see if this was still occurring; there is a different ad in place of the Verizon ad and I am no longer being automatically redirected to another tab/page. Don't know why it was happening when the Verizon ad was there but it's not happening now since the Verizon ad has been replaced with another ad from a different company.
Any thoughts on this?
thank you

hello, this is a scam tactic that is trying to trick you into installing malware, so don't download or execute this kind of stuff! as you've rightly mentioned, you're already using the latest version of firefox installed and you can always initiate a check for ''updates in firefox > help > about firefox''.
you might also want to run a full scan of your system with the security software already in place and different tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes], [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner] & [http://www.kaspersky.com/security-scan kaspersky security scan] in order to make sure that there isn't already some sort of malware active on your system that triggers these false alerts.

When I import video from my iphone to imovie it doesnt look right, it makes everyone look wider and shorter. Is there a way to fix this?

When I import video from my iphone to imovie it doesnt look right, it makes everyone look wider and shorter. Is there a way to fix this?

This is close. I did a bit more digging I have found a few more things. It appears that the input dialog is a read once on connect and then it never updates. I had my iPhone connected to my Mac when I did my convert from FILMiC Pro to my Camera Roll. Just on a whim, I dissconnected my iPhone with FCPX open and then connected it again. This time when I opened up the Import window the movie I converted showed up. It appears my issue may have simply been related to the specific series of operations that I happened to use at the time I was trying to perform an import to FCPX.
One last item of note. There is a movie in my Camera Roll that FCPX still does not see. This was a movie shot by my son-in-law of my grandaughter on his iPhone and then it was sent, via message, to my iPhone. Obviously it is a highly compressed video of unknown compression and frame rate. Regardless, FCPX does not see this video. I'm guessing it is not a .mov quicktime file but some other format specific to imessage video.
Thanks for the help Russ. It at least pointed me in the right direction. I understand why no one else could comment as I'm guessing no one else has had an issue. A very subtle "feature".

My Daughter has an Ipod and when I set up the account before giving her the gift for Xmas I set it up under my email address, now I have an iphone 4 and I want to have my own account for itunes. Is there any way 2 do this w/ two separate accts, same email

My daughter got an Ipod for Xmas and I set up the apple account before hand & used my email address to set it up, now I have purchased an Iphone 4 and I want to have a separate itunes for my music.... is there a way to have two separate itunes accounts under the same email address?

Thanks. I have my iPad on my lap and her iPod in my hand. We can FaceTime each other but it won't let either of us message each other. I know mine is activated as I use it frequently. I have activated hers as well. Maybe I will put it in the too hard basket for tonight, sleep on it and try again tomorrow.

The iPad's Mail app has no provisions for creating groups. However, you can use a third party app that many users recommend.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

Apple is asking me to answer my security questions but I can't remember the answers. Also I would reset them but my rescue email is no longer in use and I cannot even remember what it was. Is there any way to fix this mess?

So basically I need to confirm my identity but I can't because I can't remember the answers to my security questions. I scheduled a meeting with Apple, to see if they can fix it. Nod I would just reset them from my rescue email, but I don't know what that email is and it's also no longer in use.
Do you know of any way to fix this?

You won't be able to change your rescue email address until you can answer your questions, you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down this page to update your rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312

HT201209 my family has 3 ipods on one apple id account, the kids get gift cards, does the gift amounts go into one or is there a way to use the cards per device?

how do I keep peace in the house when using giftcards? we have 3 ipod touches on one account, is there a way for each child to use cards without having to share the amount gifted to them?

The Card is redeemed to the Apple ID.

When using Message Filters on an IMAP account I often get duplicate messages in my local folder where important messages are put. How can I stop this?

Since switching to IMAP and using message filters, I often get duplicate messages in my local folders. I think this is a bug.
That is my guess as to what is happening.
When the IMAP part starts syncing with the server to fill in the inbox, the message filter system starts working before it is done syncing. I appears that the filters runs too quickly because as the filter moves a msg to a local folder, the sync thread think it need to download it again from the server. If the sync with the remote server takes a long time, I could end up with 5 or more copies of the exact same email.
This has always happened for years now but I figured someone would have noticed it and fix it by now. Now I am wondering it it has something to do with my filters or my settings.
Has anyone run into this before?

Toys,
I was just doing a search to see if anyone else was feeling this way! I am also at a university and I don't really like see thousands of unread messages in mail. (Fortunately, with Leopard you can select the dock icon to show only the messages in your inbox but I still don't like having the public folder in there).
Please let me know if you find out anything and I will do the same for you. If I have time later I am going to run by our IT office later and ask them.

I've lost a password to a yahoo email account which i haven't used for awhile. Is there a way to recover this p.w.? I'm using my only access, an LG-LS620 phone

When i go to the settings to attempt changing the password the server says i've entered wrong log in information. Thanks for any help offered.

hello beaverman, you'll probably have to contact yahoo's support about that - since we have no way to help you in regards to services provided by third-parties: https://help.yahoo.com/kb/yahoo-account
thank you for your understanding!

HT201209 My friend has sent me a code that doesn't work with a US based itunes account (says UK only). I'd love to hear the music he has bought for me. Is there any way to change this?

Please help me work out a way to redeem a voucher sent by my friend for some music -- saying it's only in UK based accounts that it's redeemable.

You cannot redeem codes from one country in another. Must be redeemed in the same country where it was purchased.

Sometimes when I roll the cursor across a bookmark, my browser jumps to that web page without me clicking on it. Is there any way to turn this function off?

On occasion I will roll my cursor across a bookmark and my browser will take me to that web page without me clicking on it. I've been unable to detect a pattern; it seems to happen randomly. Can someone explain why this is happening? Am I doing something wrong? Is there a setting I can change to prevent this from happening? And if so, can I be given instructions how to do that?

this should not be happening, maybe one of your addons is interfering?! - can you try running firefox in safemode or with all extensions disabled for a while and see if this behaviour is still there...

I no longer have my apple login email address as it was associated with my previous job. I can't change it over to my current email address as this was my secondary. Is there any way to do this?

I no longer have the email address associated with my Apple account as it was through my previous employer. When I attempt to change it to my current email address, I can't as it was my backup to the old one. Is there any way to do this?

Hey arnwrkr,
Thanks for the question. It sounds like you wish to change the email address associated with your Apple ID, however the address you wish to use is already in use as your rescue email address. To accomplish your goal, we’ll need to first remove your rescue email address:
Manage your Apple ID primary, rescue, alternate, and notification email addresses
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5620
Next, you can change your Apple ID to new this email address:

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5621
And finally, be sure to update the features and services that you use with your Apple ID:

HT204266 I would like my kids to have separate itunes accounts under my umbrella itunes account so they can separate their own gift cards. Is there a way to do this?

I would like my kids to have separate accounts within my iTunes umbrella acct to manage their gift cards and purchases. Is there a way to do this?

You can set up accounts for them, but they will be completely separate. There is no "umbrella" account or global management where you can view and control multiple accounts. You'll have to log into each iTunes Store account separately to redeem gift cards, view purchases, etc. To set up a new iTunes Store account for each child, each will need a separate email address.
Regards.
