When I print from Firefox, the type is so tiny it's illegible. What's the problem and how can I fix it? COnsider me technically challenged, so please answer in step-by-step layman's talk. Thanks so much:)

It's not my printer. I already checked. I've recently been using PrintWhatYouLike which works sometimes but not always. Not sure if that's involved.
I'm on a wireless network and the same problem happens on each of 3 printers. Lately this has been happening each time I try to print from Firefox. If I copy the text into WORD, it prints okay in WORD.

<blockquote>
another thing you could try is this: enter '''about:config''' into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named '''layout.css.devPixelsPerPx'''.
double-click it and change its value to '''1.2''' (or any other zoom factor that fits your purpose: 1.0 relates to 100%, 1.2 equals 120% and so on; -1.0 is the default value and will adhere to the system settings).
</blockquote>
Okay, I tried it, set it to 1.2 and even more stuff got blurry and fuzzy. Besides everything in the FF menu bar everything in the header on youtube and a few other pages did it too. It did make the pages fill the actual page better, but the blur is worse than this prob so I set it back to -1.0.
Any other ideas?

    Hi IG viper,
    Placing your iPod into recovery mode should allow you to successfully restore the device.
    You might see these error messages if any of these are true:
    Your device has a beta version of iOS.
    You're trying to install an earlier version of iOS (downgrading).
    Your device has unauthorized modifications to iOS, also called "jailbreaking."
    Use recovery mode to restore your device to the latest version of iOS.
    Resolve iOS update and restore errors

    What does "it will not let me purchase it" mean exactly? Are you getting an error message?

  • I have several keynote presentations on my computer but now am getting the message that the program cannot be installed "because of a problem." All this started when I bought microsoft office for  University (2011). What is the problem and how can I fix

    I have several keynote presentations on my newish computer but am not unable to open them. I get the message "keynote cannot be installed because of a problem" (unspecified). Does anybody know why this happend? Does it related to using Microsoft "University"  2011? How can I fix it? Thanks!

    Thank you for your reply.
    I just tried the 3-step process suggested on http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2431353
    This all started when my mouse/thumb clicker was going crazy. Found an expanded battery. Obviously need a new battery. Unfortunately must wait 6 weeks to get my new battery. Meanwhile, I'm running my computer on AC only, as there appears to be no other option. I was informed that when using AC only (no battery) some high-energy-use programs like Office might not function.
    Do you know if there is away to use office even when just using AC and not having the battery in? I'm doubting if I have other OSX problems because everything else works: email, safari, itunes, iphoto, quicktime, etc . . . . ?

  • I transfered data from my old Mac, but now it tells me "No Access" when I try to open the files. How can I fix that?

    I transfered data from my old Mac, but now it tells me "No Access" when I try to open the files. How can I fix that?

    That's the problem, then. The files are under your 'old' user account. You should be able to access them if you log into your old account. However, that's not going to let you move them to your new user account. It's for situations like this that I always create a root user account (although I seldom access it). With a root user account, you can copy files from one user account to another. Note that someone may come up with a better idea than what I would use, but here goes.
    Read http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1528 and set up a root user. Then you can transfer files from one account to another. If you like, you can delete this account after you've moved your files.
    Good luck,
    Clinton

    Hello Korawees,
    I was researching the issue you are describing and had a recommendation. The device is very simple, so the software troubleshooting for it is pretty limitted so I think you shoud restore the iPod shuffle and re sync the content. That way, if it is a software issue, this will fix it. Here is the article named Restoring iPod shuffle to factory settings found here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1481.
    Before Starting
    It is important to understand the difference between "update" and "restore." Update does not affect your settings or songs, it simply installs updated software that controls iPod shuffle. Restore erases the disk and restores iPod shuffle to its original factory condition with updated software. If you only need to update iPod shuffle, this should be done on the computer where music is normally synced. Updating on another computer will result in all songs being removed from iPod shuffle.
    Warning: Because Restore erases all songs and files on iPod shuffle, make sure to back up any files you've saved on iPod shuffle. Your songs, podcasts, and audiobooks can be synced back to your iPod shuffle if the items are part of your iTunes library.
    How to restore iPod shuffle
    Ensure that you have an active Internet connection as new versions of iTunes and iPod Software may need to be downloaded to your computer.
    Download and install the latest version of iTunes if you do not already have it installed.
    Open iTunes, and then connect iPod shuffle to your computer.
    After a few moments, iPod shuffle will appear in the Devices section on the left side of the Tunes window.
    Select iPod shuffle under Devices and you will see information about it appear in the main iTunes window under the Summary tab/button for iPod shuffle (3rd and 4th generation) or the Settings tab/button for iPod shuffle (1st or 2nd generation).
    The Version section tells you whether iPod shuffle is up to date or needs a newer version of the software.
    Click the Restore button. You will be presented with one or more restore options that may prompt iTunes to automatically download the latest iPod Software. The 4-possible restore options are:
    Restore Option 1: Restore - Restores with same iPod Software version already on iPod.
    Restore Option 2: Use Same Version - Restores with same iPod Software version already on iPod even though a newer version is available.
    Restore Option 3: Use Newest Version - Restores with the latest iPod Software currently on your computer.
    Restore Option 4: Restore and Update - Restores after downloading the latest iPod Software on your computer.
    If you are using a Mac, a message will appear prompting you to enter an administrator’s name and password.
    A progress indicator will appear on the computer screen indicating that the restore process has started. Do not disconnect iPod shuffle during the restore process.
    After the restore process is complete, the iPod shuffle's status light will flash orange continuously. The iPod Setup Assistant window will appear asking you to name your iPod and choose your syncing preferences as you did when you connected your iPod shuffle for the first time.
    When you come to step 7, I recommend Restore Option 4.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • HT1414 Why do I get 'This message has no content' with some e-mails on my iPad when the same messages can be received on my MacBook Pro without any problem, and how can I fix it?

    Why do I get - 'This message has no content' - with some e-mails on my iPad when the same messages can be received on my Mac Book Pro without any problem and how can I fix it?

    Is this a POP (POP3) email account?  If so, you MacBook Pro may be retrieving the email and deleting it off the server before your phone can.  Another possibility is that both your Mac and your phone are trying to retrieving it at the same time, and the POP server, which will only allow a single email client connection at a time, is locking out your phone resulting in the "has not been downloaded from the server" error.
