When I search via Yahoo or Google and then click on a link, I get redirected to a general website but never the one I've clicked on

Let's say I'm searching for a specific recipe. When I find the result and attached link that I want, I click on it and get a "submit query" message on the screen and then am redirected to something completely different. This is usually not even a valid web page, but more of a "did you mean one of these" kind of things.

Even though you create your PDFs with Acrobat 9.5 your students most likely use Reader X or Reader XI to open them. The message that they see is a security feature to prevent malicious PDFs from being downloaded and doing some harm. In Acrobat/Reader XI once you choose "Allow" by default it remembers it and does not ask the same question for all PDFs that come from the same domain. So, if you post your PDFs on the same site each student will see this message only once. There are ways to automatically deploy Reader pre-configured to trust certain sites but this is not that can be done on individual machines. This ability is used mostly by big companies that own the hardware and installed software.

  • When ever I click on a link I get redirected. How can I prevent this?

    When I do a search on Google, or Yahoo, a page comes up filled with all the possible links. When I click on a link I get redirected to a website that isn't the one I chose. By copying the web address under the description, and pasting it in the address bar I'm able to go to the right site. But this method is awkward, and I'd like to find a way to stop being redirected.

  • The Firefox sign is no longer at the top of my page and mozilla search has changed to google and I can not find how to get it back.

    I was talking about how much I liked the Mozilla search with friends and when I looked at my home page the search engine had changed to Google. Also, when looking at all the instructions that referred to the Firefox box, I did not see it and I do not ever remember seeing the Firefox box at the top of the page.

    Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: command+Shift+F).
    You see the orange Firefox button when the menu bar is hidden
    *In current Firefox versions it is possible to hide the "Menu Bar" via "View > Toolbars" or via the right-click context menu of a toolbar to make the (orange) Firefox button appear.
    *Tap the Alt key or press the F10 key to bring up the menu bar temporarily if you need to access a menu on it.
    *Go to "View > Toolbars" or right-click the menu bar or empty space on the tab bar to select which toolbars to show or hide (click on an entry to toggle the state).

  • When i search via mozilla i now have to go via mystart incredimail, which i thought i had uninstalled long ago, do you have any association with incredimail and is is now part of mozilla firefox 4 ?

    Question
    when i search via mozilla i now have to go via mystart incredimail, which i thought i had uninstalled long ago, do you have any association with incredimail and is is now part of mozilla firefox 4 ?

    Hmmm, Norton extensions are broken again in Firefox 4.0.1. It seems that Norton didn't allow for Firefox 4.0 security updates when they updated their Firefox extension for Firefox 4.0. Norton says they'll have a fix in two weeks. A Norton user posted a fix in this forum thread.

  • Firefox keeps crashing when I search something up on Google

    Firefox keeps crashing when I search something up on Google. The homepage for Google works fine but once I search for anything, the program just freezes. Whats wrong? I am running the new Firefox 4.0, Windows 7 64-bit. This problem never happened with Firefox 3.6

    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

  • Hi, im having problems with my iphone it would always be showing up "No Service" even when I get my simcard out, when i turn airplane mode it would switch to " Searching" and then go back to "No Service", i have tried restoring several times, but nothing

    Hi, im having problems with my iphone it would always be showing up "No Service" even when I get my simcard out, when i turn airplane mode it would switch to " Searching" and then go back to "No Service", i have tried restoring several times, but nothing has changed. I must say that my iphone was working perfectly until the last months my battery began to die all from a sudden, so my phone got turn off really frequently, so then i ordered a battery and changed it myself so when phone was on.. it had this problem..    im desperate here

    No I haven´t take it to Apple Store, i think I will actually. My iphone was jailbroken and ulocked with gevey sim, but when this failures began i decided to restore it, and I did preserve the baseband, but when I took it into one of these "Places" they told me it would be a good idea to do a clean restore and see if this fixed the problem so I upgraded my baseband, and right now my iphone is freshly restore, no jailbreak no nothing.
    Btw yes something like a year ago my screen was replaces by others not by apple, but I didnt had any issues after this.. until today (a little more than a year later).

    Why isn't my newly published book coming up when I search for it by title and by author on iTunes and iBooks?

    Thanks, but it turns out iTunes just needed another 24 hours. Now when I search in iTunes by my name or book title, it comes up!
    Do you happen to know why it doesn't list my name on itunes? It shows the title and then By (blank). Grr.

  • Did you know that Verizonwireless is saving your checking account information when you pay your bill by check and then making it part of your "MyVerizon"? This means of course if they get hacked that information could be compromised. What do you think of

    Did you know that Verizonwireless is saving your checking account information when you pay your bill by check and then making it part of your "MyVerizon"  without you adding it? This means of course if they get hacked that information could be compromised. What do you think of this?

    Credit card and debit card and checking and savings information is encrypted so it is possible to be hacked, but the odds are greater to get hit by the Love Boat then to have a wide scale hack.
    Oh yes they do happen, Bank of America, Chase, Citibank, Target and quite a few others. But in all the years I have paid my invoice with saved card information I never been hacked.
    You use good passwords and the risk is minimal.
    Good Luck

  • When i try to open week cal it loads and then closes after a few seconds...I have checked for updates, turned the phone off then on, closed out of the app and then opened it again...nothing works!  Any suggestions?

    When i try to open week cal it loads and then closes after a few seconds...I have checked for updates, turned the phone off then on, closed out of the app and then opened it again...nothing works!  I have thought about deleting the app from my phone and then reloading it again but I worry that it will delete all my calendar info???  Any suggestions?

    To reset, press and hold the Home and power buttons until the silver apple appears.
    I would delete the app, reset the phone and then download the app again. Your calendar information should be stored on the phone as Week Cal uses the Calendar app information.
    Best of luck.

  • I have three Blue Yeti USB Microphones, and when I try to create an aggregate device in Audio MIDI on my MBP it lets me select two microphones but not the third. I need all three for a podcast, any solutions?

    I have three Blue Yeti USB Microphones, and when I try to create an aggregate device in Audio MIDI on my MBP it lets me select two microphones but not the third. At first I thought maybe the third microphone was just defected or something but I tested the mic individually and it works fine. It'll let me use two Blue Yeti's and another microphone but not three Yeti's at once.

    Ive had 2 identical USB AT2020 mics connected at the same time on both macbook pro and macbook Air.
    The "Yeti" mics, are, lets say undesirable, and low to mid computer consumer mics.
