When I update my iphone software, I lost my old contacts.  I see the backups under devices but it will not allow me to restore when I right click.  It will only let me delete the backup.  How can I restore this backup?  Thanks!

  • I hid the address bar with a right click option, and cannot seem to get it back, how can I do this?

    I was watching some TV on the WB, and their player doesn't have a 'pop out' option, so I opened it in a new window, and hid the address bar with a right click-> hide option or something along those lines, and now I can't seem to get it back with the same methods, nor can I find a way to access properties or anything. All I can see are the tabs I have open and the bookmark bar.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    There are different solutions depending on kind of the problem.
    Keyboard:Alt+V,T,N
    Navigation toolbar, including address bar, should appear
    Then
    Keyboard:Alt+V,T,M
    Menu bar, including File, Edit, View, should appear
    Right-click the bookmark bar
    Click Customize... in the context menu.
    In the Customize Toolbar window which appears find the address bar (It will be shorter) amongst the buttons here.
    Drag the address bar by mouse onto the main window, where you want it to be.

  • After using my Firefox browser to access my Yahoo e-mail, I am unable to log off. Left clicking my mouse will not sign off. I have to shut off my computer to close my e-mail. How can I fix this?

    I am unable to sign-off from my e-mail at Yahoo. Left clicking on the mouse doesn't close my e-mail.

    Hi ampterson-
    It could be that an Add-on is causing this problem. First, go to the Firefox button > Help > Restart with add-ons disabled. If that fixes the problem it means one of your Add-ons is the cause. See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] for steps to figure out which one.

    If you have any podcasts in your iTunes library you should see a Podcasts sync setting tab to the right when you connect your phone and click on its name on the left sidebar (see image below).  On this tab check to sync podcasts and sync your phone.

    That would be an issue on the recipients end.
    sounds like they didn't save your number in their contacts.

    Why don't you just restore the to your pc from your most recent backup? You'll get the warning about erasing the media on the phone, but since you'll have all of your media and apps restored from backup, you shouldn't have much of a problem.

    Follow the steps in this article to restore from iTunes back up:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    Since you say you cant see the back up in iTunes you should be able to see it when following the last step where it says for iTunes 10.7 or earlier. Dont worry as this step also works for iTunes 11.

  • I have two email accounts. It is only letting me check one. How can I check the other?

    I registered two different email accounts on my iPad mini. It's only letting me check one. How can I check the other one too?

    Congratuations on your new iPad!
    Since your device is so new, I can state categorically that this an issue with configuration. Delete the account that doesn't work, and enter the information anew.
    If you're still having problems, check that your email address and password are correct, and if possible, verify it by checking your ISP's settings.

  • When I burn a disk from my playlist the songs are out of order. How can I fix this? Thanks!

    When I burn a disk from my playlist the songs are out of order. How can I fix this? Thanks!

    I'm not 100% sure but I think you create your play order manually then select the playlist, right click it (or use ctrl+click) & select "Copy to play order".
    I think when you burn that playlist it should obey that order, it has been so long since I made a mix CD that I'm not certain, good luck.

  • Someone hacked my computer and set up a new administrative account by re-registering my computer. I can not access this account nor delete it. How can I fix this and get my computer back to the way it was?

    Someone hacked my computer and set up a new administrative account by re-registering my computer. I can not access this account nor delete it. How can I fix this and get my computer back to the way it was? And also prevent this from being able to happen again. I have the link the kid used (http://www.ihackintosh.com/2009/05/how-to-hack-the-user-password-in-mac-os-x-wit hout-an-os-x-cd/) Apparently he used hack 2. HELP PLEASE!

    Not sure why you can't delete that account. If you have admin privileges, you should be able to. Sounds like you only removed the Home Folder for that account.
    You should highlight/select the account you want to remove and then click the minus button. Might need to unlock the padlock with your admin password.
    Have a look at these articles from Apple, if necessary.

  • Often when I do a search and then click on the link I am redirected to a fake or phishing website. How can I stop this? Thank you!

    Often when I do a search and then click on the link I am redirected to a fake or phishing website. How can I stop this? Thank you!

    Usually you would get to a phishing site directly by mistyping, or from the search itself.
    You can avoid a lot of phishing sites with the following:
    '''Tools > Options > Security'''<br>
    ''Known attack sites can be blocked here, uses information reported to Firefox and to Google.''<br>
    [x] Warn me when sites try to install add-ons<br>
    [x] Block reported attack sites<br>
    [x] Block reported web forgeries
    Having a good '''hosts''' file on your system can protect your entire system cross-application and all browsers and all your Firefox profiles against a lot malware. The '''hosts''' file must coded for www.example.com, example.com, anything.example.com -- '''Adblock Plus''' is more generic and can do more with less coding. See links below.

    Just so you don't miss important information about Adblock Plus, be aware that it does nothing by itself -- it needs filters. Be sure to install the "EasyList (US)" filter subscription.
    In your google search settings (preferences), you can filter adult content, but that is not phishing

    Phishing protection comes from your browser using collected phishing data -- not from the Google search itself where you might see a warning.

    Try "Pacifist"!
    Pacifist is an application for Mac OS X that opens up .pkg installer packages, .dmg disk images, .zip, .tar, .tar.gz, .tar.bz2, .pax, and .xar archives, and more, and lets you install individual files out of them. This is useful if you need to install just one file out of a package instead of the entire package
