When refreshing screen, another tab pops up with a file document and the download screen.

Each time I refresh the screen another tab opens. It looks like:
{"longFormFreeVideos":0,"primaryNetwork":"HBO","networkSmallLogo":"/api/entity/thumbnail/Network-56/50/30","genres":["War Drama","War","Adaptation","HBOseries","Drama"],"watchItOnDemand":false,"watchItOnDownloads":false,"type":"TvSeries","releaseYear":0,"shortFormVideos":7,"globalUid":"TvSeries-100451","longFormVideos":7,"description":"U.S. First Recon Marines prepare to invade Iraq; soldiers pass time while awaiting orders; a writer from ``Rolling Stone'' magazine becomes embedded with the unit.","name":"Generation Kill","topProjects":[],"providerCodes":["d"],"videoIsProtected":false,"endYear":2008,"episodeListings":{},"shortFormFreeVideos":7,"episodeDetails":{},"isProtected":true,"watchItOnTv":false,"topContributors":[],"episodeSeasonNumber":0,"startYear":2008,"isNetworkPremium":true,"longFormProtectedVideos":7,"watchItOnFancast":false,"episodeAirings":{},"shortFormProtectedVideos":0}
I am assuming this is different depending on which screen I refresh. It also brings up the download screen too. Why?

Mozilla has download mirror websites around the globe and uses them to "balance" the downloads of Firefox so users don't need to "wait in line" for their download.
Here's a listing of those mirrors. <br />

Getting weird adobe pop-up with foreign language characters and no download

For the last week and change, it seems every time I have been prom,ptsd to download something from done reader, when I click on the "trust website", instead of the page and download opening up, I get an Adobe pop-up with completely foreign language (several different, it looks like) characters, and nothing to click on, and no download. I'm on a Mac, version 10.8.5, on Safari. What gives?????
Cathy

Thank you for the screenshot. The text in the message says
Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must launch Adobe Reader and accept the End User License Agreement then quit and relaunch the browser.
So all you need to do is to open the Adobe Reader app, accept the EULA, then restart your browser.
I don't know why this message is displayed in Japanese, but I have seen similar reports in this forum for the latest Adobe Reader on Mac.

Stop firefox from pausing a tab when going to another tab or window

I am running firefox v5.0 and I have noticed that ever since v4 when I open another tab, the other tabs are paused and when I have an upload (ie: a video to youtube) going in another tab and I want to browse the internet using a new tab/window, it is stopped. I tried looking through about:config but I couldnt find any thing to disable firefox from pausing tabs.

I uninstalled Viewpoint Media Player, which fixed my problem with the plugincheck tab always opening. Viewpoint Media Player is responsible for the plugin called "MetaStream 3 Plugin r4", and I believe this plugin is triggering Firefox to open the plugincheck page. It is not enough to disable the plugin, it must be uninstalled.
Since it seems you don't have the "MetaStream 3 Plugin", it may be that some other plugin is causing the plugincheck tab to pop open. Try going to Tools (menu) -> Add-ons -> Plugins. Look through the list of plugins, and see if any of them have a red warning icon next to them. If one of the plugins has a red warning icon, it may be the plugin responsible for triggering the opening of the tab. Try uninstalling that plugin, or updating it to a newer version.

How to prevent video playback from getting paused when switching to another tab on Firefox for Android?

In Firefox for Android 27.0, if you play video in one tab and while it's playing you switch to another tab, the video gets paused. I want the video to continue to play while I'm viewing another tab (so I can at least hear its sound!).
How can I do that?
How can I prevent Firefox for Android from pausing video playback when switching to another tab?
Thank you very much.

Hi hamid_ss,
Currently Firefox for Android does this by default with embedded players. Some sites go automatically to full screen too which may be what you are running into. Try it.

My MacBook Pro recently shut down on me all of a sudden. When I restarted it, it popped up with a gray box with 'OS X Utilities,' then listed various options such as 1. restore from time machine backup, 2. reinstall OS X, etc. what do I do now?

My MacBook Pro recently shut down on me all of a sudden. When I restarted it, it popped up with a gray box with 'OS X Utilities,' then listed various options such as 1. restore from time machine backup, 2. reinstall OS X, 3. get help online and 4. disk utility. what do I do now? I have not backed up to Time Machine in a few days, so I'm not sure I should restore from time machine backup, is there something else I can do? Help!

Guitar21,
your MacBook Pro has booted into its Recovery mode. From the OS X Utilities menu, select Disk Utility. On the left-hand side of the Disk Utility window, select your internal disk’s boot partition (typically called “Macintosh HD”). On the right-hand side, press the Verify Disk button if it’s not greyed out; if it is greyed out, or if it reports that errors were found, press the Repair Disk button. Once the verification/repair is completed, exit Disk Utility and select Restart from the Apple menu to restart in normal mode. Does it get to the login screen now?

When I open another tab I get the wheel of death for 1-2 minutes and I often have to force quit FF. Mac OS X 10.6.8/ FF 7.0.1

I have Mac OS X 10.6.8 using FF 7.0.1. When I open another tab I get the wheel of death for 1-2 minutes and I often have to force quit FF. I saw this question asked but no real answer given as to why this has been happening in the last three weeks after I've used FF for years and not had this problem before. Please give some help or I'll have to use Safari full time.

Delete and reinstall it.

What happens when yo connect to computer and restore via iTunes
iTunes: Restoring iOS software

itunes will not load on my ipad. Icon is there. When I open "Music", it shows itunes with no content briefly and then takes me back to home page. What to do?

Quit the app and restart.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your 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 of the app that you want to close. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Or 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.

I can't get my computer to boot up. The screen is white with a file folder and then at ? in the middle

The screen is white with a file folder and then at ? in the middle

Before declaring that the disk is dead (which is a common cause for what you are seeing), try the steps outlined in this article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570
This article also has some troubleshooting steps you can try:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1417
If you don't have your original system disks, you can boot into single user mode folloing these instructions:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1492
and then following the directions for running the fsck command in the second article I list above.
I would try these things before giving up and assuming that the disk is dead. The flashing question mark indicates that a valid boot disk cannot be found. One cause for this is that the disk has experienced hardware failure. However another cause could be that the system and boot files on that disk are somehow damaged (perhaps from a power surge or an improper shutdown of the computer) and in some cases the above repair steps can restore them to working condition.

My iphone 4 screen has gone blank and its still on it vibrates when i put it on charge ive tried turning it off and the screen is still not showing anything please help

my iphone 4 screen has gone blank and its still on it vibrates when i put it on charge ive tried turning it off and the screen is still not showing anything please help

Hi Ellen,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like your iPhone 4 has a dim or blank black screen but responds to some commands like enabling vibrate. I understand this may be a frustrating situation, but the troubleshooting suggestions in the article below will help you solve the issue.
Get help with the screen on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
If your screen is too dim, too bright, or you see only faint images
Try to adjust the brightness. If the screen doesn’t respond when you adjust the brightness, open several apps to make sure it’s not an issue with only one app.
If you have a screen protector, try removing it. Try removing your case if it includes a screen protector.
If you see the issue in multiple apps, restart your device.
If restarting doesn’t fix the issue, restore your device.
If you still see the issue after you restore, contact Apple Support.
Take care,
-Jason

I tried down loading mozilla firefox to use as a web browser. It was downloaded 100% then when prompted to "run" the error message comes up with a red cross and the message'This file is corrupted" and won't let me proceed. What do I do now?

It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox.<br />
You can try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.

When initiating an e mail to someone with several addresses used in the past the one I use most often does not come up in the first position. How can I get these multiple e mails prioritized?

When initiating an e mail to someone with several addresses used in the past the one I use most often does not come up in the first position. How can I get these multiple e mails prioritized?

We are talking about the Mail app, right? In the Mail menubar, click on Window and then Previous Recipients:
That eliminates the previous recipients. If you are talking about the suggestions because there are 10 people with the name 'Steve' in your Contacts, then I do not know how to eliminate those unless you change the name slightly or wait until you type the last name or some other differentiator.

While updating my ipad to new software through itunes it got stuck and does not work anymore - it just displays the screen with symbols of itunes and the cable to connect to it - help - what should i do?

Disconnect the iPad, do a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is 'appsolutely' safe!, reconnect and follow the prompts.
If that does not work then see here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

How to solve the error message "Could not activate cellular data network: PDP authentication failure"when using 3g or gPRS on safari with an iphone 4 and latest software updates

Please can someone help me to solve the error message "Could not activate cellular data network: PDP authentication failure"when using 3G or GPRS on safari with an iphone 4GS and latest software updates. I have tried resetting the network and phone settings. I have restored the factory settings on itunes and still the problem persists.

All iPhones sold in Japan are sold carrier locked and cannot be officially unlocked by the carrier. If you unlocked it, it was by unauthorized means (hacked), and support cannot be given to you in this forum.
Hacked iPhones are subject to countermeasures by Apple, particularly when updating the firmware. It is likely permanently re-locked or permanently disabled.
