Hello Carl.
See this article:

I hope it helps. If it doesn't, you may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.

The updated iPhoto program is cumbersome. I am trying to create a Christmas card and can't figure out how to get the fold of the card on the left and not on the top of the card. I had no trouble with this for the past two years. Can someone help?

You could go hunting for a fair price on a refurbished or restored Intel-based Mac or MacBook, as most early models of CoreDuo and Core2Duo can run Snow Leopard 10.6.8, and some much more recent.
The Apple Store's Special Deals section that is online has some fairly recent examples of hardware with an OS, original accessories as noted, power cord, and complementary one year coverage. Eligibility for extended AppleCare plans are noted & may be available for various items in the store. Subject to availability. Refurbished. Like new. The price difference can be about the same as the additional two year AppleCare plan may cost, so get that too.
Third party repaired restored or available through other channels vary in quality, quantity, condition, and may be lacking in some or most original accessories; they should include basic hardware as originally equipped and have the boot-install software disc set as intended for that build model & year specification, included.
Auction sites rarely have that much of a kit together, w/ missing discs, scruffy, extra fees, etc. On the other hand, companies that restore and repair Macs for a living and are authorized Apple service centers may have something, if you aren't in the market for something holiday new or really quick. Older models if reasonably refurbished can still shine years later.
Hopefully this helps somewhat.
Good luck & happy computing!

I have no "File - Edit - History - Bookmarks tool bar at the top of my screen and can't figure out how to get it!

new desktop, new user of Windows 7. Made Firefox my browser as always, with Yahoo as my home page. There is no tool bar at the top of my screen that says "File - Edit -- History __ etc the way I have always had! I can't figure out how to get this, and I need it! Help!!

Press the alt key next to the spacebar. Do you see it now? If so, click View -> Toolbars" and check the Menu bar. See [[Menu bar is missing]] for more information.

I am trying to transfer the songs from my iPod touch to my computer and can not figure out how to do it. Please help me..

I am trying to transfer songs from my iPod touch to my computer and can not figure out how to do it. I also want to transfer the songs I have back in to iTunes. My hard drive went out on my computer and I lost all of my songs, except for on my iPod. I have an iPhone as well and did an update and it wiped out all of my songs. Someone please help me.

The music sync is one way - computer to ipod. The only exception is itunes purchases. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your comptuer for just such an occasion. use your backup copy to put everything back.

Transferring some files from old hard drive to new mac book pro: How do I do this? I bought a SATA Wire, and can't figure out how to get my files

Hi there, my old mac book recently died and I opted to buy a new macbook pro, instead of pouring lots of money into the old computer. I was able to get my hard drive out, and I bought a 2.5" Sata Nootbook Drive Upgrade Kit. I have also installed superduper!....but I can't really figure out how to get everything to work. I just want to be able to take some of my files from my hard drive, not everything...
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

I don't know what a "2.5" Sata Nootbook Drive Upgrade Kit" is but if you have a internal drive you need to connect all you needed was a $20 IDE/SATA to USB adapter
You don't need Superduper, that's software designed to clone a entire Mac's boot drive to a external drive for bootable backup purposes using the same machine/make/model.
Since the new Mac is different than the old one you can't clone (well you could but it will break the machine) the old drive to the new one.
However you can use the adapter above and software Apple provides in the Utilities folder on the NEW MAC, called Migration Assistant to transfer your User to the new machine.
However this might not be the best course of action as it can transfer unwanted data and cause problems in the Library, old programs that won't run on 10.7, etc.
You can simply create the same named user on the machine (System Preferences > Accounts) log into it and then connect the external drive with the adapter and copy the contents of your users folders over and place into the same.
It's always good to have another Admin level user account on the machine in case the primary one has a User based issue and you need to log into the other and grab files. So if either manually or via using Migration Assistant you wind up with two user accounts on the machine, it's really not that big of a deal.

I'm trying to connect a Sony wireless keyboard and can't figure out how to get the iPad 2 to discover it. Has anyone had any luck using a non-Apple wireless keyboard and mouse?

Apple tech so far hasn't helped except to advise me to get manuals online that Sony doesn't post on its website. I've sent off an inquiry to Sony but don't expect an answer. Apple assumes my devices are bluetooth but the iPad2 hasn't figured out how to discover them, and I don't know how to make them discoverable. I'd like to have the option to use them but so far haven't been able to figure out how.

Heidi-
On the iPad, go to Settings-General-Bluetooth. Set Bluetooth to ON and a new window appears while the iPad searches for Bluetooth devices.
To get the keyboard into a discoverable mode, you may need to remove its batteries for a while. If it is not possible to get it to appear on the iPad, could the keyboard be defective? Can it be discovered by other computers?

Uninstalled my AMD R5 Graphics and can't figure out how to get it back.

So I was repeatedly getting the system thread exception not handled atikmdag.sys BSOD and I was desperate to find out how to fix it. It would happen when I was watching a video online and it would happen like every 1-2 hours. I was searching around the internet for ways to help the problem and someone gave me the solution of going to Device Manager>Display Adapters and uninstalling what was there and reinstalling it after. So I went to the Device Manager and uninstalled the two things that were under Display Adapters (AMD Radeon R5 & AMD Radeon R7, which I'm certain were both preinstalled with the laptop). I don't know if I did something wrong or if the solution was never going to work for me but once I uninstalled them I could not figure out how to reinstall them. I tried AMDs website and it wouldn't let me download anything, I tried HP and I couldn't reinstall them from there. Now all I have under Display Adapters is Microsoft Basic Display Adapter. I've noticed that I have lost the ability to turn the brightness of my laptop up or down, and I also noticed that there was a lot of screen tearing when I was watching things online, which could of just always been there and I'm just it now that I'm looking for imperfections. Finally I noticed that my laptop was getting much hotter than usual. So I guess what I would like to know is if I can somehow get back the two drivers I uninstalled? And if I can't is there any way I can fix the problems I have been noticing so far?
If you need anymore information about my computer I will provide them. Thanks in advance

A piece of advice first. An uninstall rarely is necessary to solve problems. You just need to reset preferences by holding down specific keys.
How did you install the first time without disks? Another word of advice on downloaded programs. Burn the setup files to disk for future use.
You may have a mess now if you have various versions downloaded. Uninstall them and download CS4 from http://prodesigntools.com/how-to-get-prior-adobe-software-versions-cs4-cs5.html
Be sure to follow download instructions exactly or you will run into problems.

So, our hope was we could just hook up the external to the mac and have it transfer seamlessly. Is there any hope of that?
Yes there is, scroll down to the bottom of the following Switch 101 article and click on the arrow next to Manually migrating.

Uninstalled CS4 and can't figure out how to get it back

My daughter has been using my copy of CS4 for over a year without issues. Recently however she began to have some kind of issue with the brushes pixelating. We deactivated (just to be safe) and uninstalled then reinstalled. That fixed the problem. For a short time. When the issue returned we again deactivated, but this time it somehow did a complete uninstall which included the original setup program maybe? So, we downloaded PS again but we can only find a way to download PS CC. Now when we go to put the serial number in, it won't accept it. Is there someplace we should be downloading CS4 specifically? I never got disks...only a digital download years ago. Suggestions?

HELP!!! I lost all my music and can't figure out how to get it back.

I had iTunes downloaded on my computer. Unfortunately I got a bug or virus that deleted everything including my iTunes. So i got my computer fixed and downloaded iTunes again but then it told me my iPod was synced to another computer and then asked if I wanted to transfer and erase. I'm thinking it's going to transfer what i already had....WRONG it just deleted everything!!! How do I get that library back AND download it back on to my shuffle?

If the lost music is no longer on your iPod, on your PC, or in another backup somewhere, you are out of luck. You can download most iTunes purchases again at no cost via iCloud. See this article for more information and assistance.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
For non-iTunes purchased content, you'll need to redownload or rerip them from their original source.

Changed my apple ID on computer and can't figure out how to make iPad the same

Recently changed my ISP and changed my Apple ID and password on my computer to work with new provider. However my Ipad is stuck with the old ID and I can't find anything about how to change it. Any ideas of what to do or where to look?

Sign out of old and sign in with new.

The last version of Firefox would go to a choice box when a new screen came up. I can't figure out how to get that feature back in Firefox 4

For example. When checking spam in Gmail.....if I ask to delete all spam mail.....the cursor would automatically go to the box that pops up asking for confirmation. I can't figure out how to get that feature back. Otherwise everything works great!

I have the same problem getting into Mozilla. Occasionally it comes up when I click on it, but most times it does not. The hour glass stays on for a couple of seconds, then goes off.
