When I try to write an email, many of the words get highlighted as if spelled wrong. They are not wrong

This doesn't happen when I use the internet explorer browser, only when I use Mozilla. This also happens when I reply to an email, not just on new emails. If I use spell check, it finds no wrong words and the lines do not go away. This is very distracting as it is very hard to tell the misspelled words from those that I have correctly spelled.

Firefox doesn't do email. Some webmail websites use their own spellcheck which overrides that which is in Firefox.
Another thing, if you aren't using the '''en-US'' localization of Firefox, did you install the correct dictionary for your locale?

Firefox freezes when I try to open my emails and use the internet, what can I do?

Use Mozilla Firefox to see my emails and use the internet from about one week when I try to see my emails or use the internet it takes me to another wed site or gets freezes I am worry about because I don't know what's going up. This is the first time it happening to me. It says Firefox can not work properly it will close and I can lose some information, or click to star a new session but it never starts again it got freeze and I have to shut down the computer.

Use internet explorer as your default until this issue is resolved. Under Firefox, hotmail live will not load my email folders. No problem using internet explorer.

My iTunes card won't redeem and when I try to it comes up with this "The gift certificate or prepaid card code you entered has not been properly activated. Please contact iTunes Store costumer support for assistance" can anyone help me?

My iTunes card won't redeem and when I try to it comes up with this "The gift certificate or prepaid card code you entered has not been properly activated. Please contact iTunes Store costumer support for assistance" can anyone help me?

Is the store that you bought the card from nearby so that you can try going back and asking if they can activate the card properly ? If it's not, or if they can't/won't activate, then you will need to do as the message says and contact iTunes Support (these are user-to-user forums) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then iTunes Cards And Codes (you will probably need to give them images of the front and back of the card, and possibly its receipt)

I have all my music cd's on a hard drive as wav files when I try to add them to I tunes the files get there but no album info I end up with a bunch of track 1's by unknown artists. Is there a way to transfer each album over so it shows up like a normal CD

Try posting in a more appropriate forum, as this has noting to do with itunes U - the place where University/college/museums post education material.

I pod has no sound without headphones. when i push the volume keys it says headphones even though they are not plugged in

My iPod has no sound unless headphones are plugged in. When i push the volume keys it says headphones

- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.
Apple - iPod Repair price
A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.
iPhone Repair, Service & Parts: iPod Touch, iPad, MacBook Pro Screens
Replace the jack yourself

When i try and write an email using my hotmail account the attachment button will not work. If i access hotmail through explorer it does work.

I have cleared the cache and also deleted all the cookies using the tools button. I am not sure what to try next

Quit the mail app and then launch it again and select the draft and try again.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps.
If that doesn't work, reset the iPad.
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.

When I try to save an email attached file, the file name is automatically convertied to "attachment.ashx" although the correct file type is recognized. How do I retain the original file name?

This problem occurred after the most recent update to firefox 8.0.
After right clicking on the attached file, I click on save link as.
The correct file type is recognized. However the file name is converted to "attachment.ashx".
When I rename the file, it downloads properly and is opened by the appropriate program.
However, I should not have to rename each downloaded file.
In particular, this is happening with Word files and with Scientific Notebook (.tex) files.

Cor-el, thank you for your advice. I was able to navigate to my Profile Folder and I deleted the mimeTypes.rdf file. I then closed Firefox and restarted it. The problem was still there, and I found that the mimeTypes.rdf file had been re-created.
I tried your second suggestion, but the files you mentioned were not present so there was nothing to reset.
Any other suggestions?

TS3899 When I try to access my email it says the connection to server failed. Does anyone know what this means?

I'm trying to access my email and it tells me it cannot access the server

Lots of possibilities:
The server is down (likely if it has worked up until now)
You did not enter the server name correctly in setting it up
You misspelled your login name
The passcode you entered is incorrect
The port you entered is not supported by the server
The server requires SSL and you did not enable it
The server does not support SSL and you DID enable it
The network you are using is blocking access to email servers

I have an older mac running 10.4.11. When I try to update to firefox 3.6.28 I get an error message: "...you do not have sufficient privileges..."

Currently running firefox 3.0.4. I downloaded 3.6.28 successfully. When I tried to install it by sliding the firefox icon over onto the applications icon I got a message saying an item named firefox already exists and do I want to replace it with the newer one I am moving. I clicked "replace." Then I get a message saying that the operation cannot be completed because I do not have sufficient privileges for some of the items. How can I complete this install?

If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then best is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
*Trash the current Firefox application (open the Applications folder in the Finder and drag the Firefox application to the Trash) to do a clean (re)install
*Install the new version that you have downloaded
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Installing_Firefox#Mac_OS_X
Your personal data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox profile folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data when you uninstall and (re)install Firefox.

You can also try to repair the disk permissions:

Satellite P100 - BSOD when I try to write to a DVD or CD

I have a Satellite P100, when I try to write to a DVD or CD I get the blue screen, error 50, and my laptop closes down.
It doesn't matter what type of DVD or CD I use or which brand.
Also, I have an external DVD drive and the very same thing happens with this.
This only happens with blank discs and after I have formated it.
If I use a disc with even a very small file on it eg. one photo, the disc drive works perfectly.
It displays no other problems. The drive is a Mat****a DVD-RAM UJ-850S ATA device and I'm using Vista.
I've been told that Vista will not allow me copy copyrighted discs but this happens before I try to copy anything.

hi eddie-g,
nice problem you have here....
- which application do you use to burn a disc?
- are there more than one applications installed to burn?
- virtual drives installed?
- is there a log (mostly in the program directory) which gives some more info?
- any problems with reading a cd/dvd?
i only know a error "50" from toast, a mac application to burn...?!
i think best is to recover the system to make sure its not a software thing...
or deinstall every burning application and use only the windows features to write on a disc to make sure what kind of error kills your dvds...
it could be a hardware error too...

When I try and send an e-mail via the PDF in print it gives a warning

When I try and send an e-mail via the PDF in print it gives a warning saying :
“” does not appear to be a valid e-mail address. Verify the address and try again.
For whatever reason it is putting a "" in front of the address that I get from the address book.
There is nothing in my previous recipients and if I copy and paste the info from the e-mail to another e-mail from mail directly the address is fine and it sends without and problems.
Any ideas or web site I can visit to remove this ?
Greg

Quote : So you start typing in the recipients name and it puts the name in quotes?
Yes.
As is normal, I type in a few letters and the auto fills in the name and the name is highlighted in blue as always.
It does not happen if I send it from the SHARE dropdown.
However in the SHARE I have to send all the pages.
I have to use the FILE dropdown and then the PRINT, pick the first page (single) and then go to the MAIL PDF.
That is the one I am having the issue with.
Thanks for taking the time to help.

Spinning circle * Thunderbird is not responding when I try to write or access emails. I had attempted to delete a bunch of old txt messages in seldom used Gmail

I saw I had almost 30,000 txt messages on a Gmail account that I had created a gmail account for on Thunderbird. I didn't realize that they were going here from Gmail. I highlighted all of them and attempted to delete them. The spinning circle finally went away and all of them were gone. But when I tried to do anything else on Thunderbird with my regular email accounts (Comcast & Hotmail), I would get a spinning circle and Thunderbird is not responding. I had to use Ctrl Alt Del and then reopen. I tried compacting but this morning when I tried to write an email from one of my Comcast emails in Thunderbird, again I got the spinning circle and Thunderbird is not responding. In order to do anything, I have to close the program by hitting Crrl Alt Del and try again.
My Trash Local folders says 8300.
This morning, when I tried accessing Thunderbird at the bottom of the taskbar it said, "downloading....of 17,000 to All Mail. Had no clue what that meant. I let it continue until all were and thought my issue would be resolved. But no. :(
Something obviously got corrupted in the program. What do I need to do to fix this?
Thank you.
Fred

TS3899 When I try to send an email on iPad, it goes to outbox and stays there? I get a message that I have exceeded my output limit. I don't think this is accurate because I don't send that many messages. Maybe 30 a day. Please advise. Thanks

Question? When I try to send out email on my ad address, it goes to the outbox and stays there. The message is something like, you have exceeded your limit on messages so your message will be stored in the outbox. I don't send more than 30 emails a day, and i use two other email addresses. What can I do?

Change the password on that e-mail account. It's possible that your account has been hacked/spoofed and spammers have used it to blast out junk, leaving you to 'pay the price'. If it's one where you can contact the company, contact them and ask them what's going on. (if this is g-mail, yahoo, hotmail, don't bother, there's no way to contact any sort of support)
