Whenever I try to go to a website I get the following message: The proxy server is refusing connections. How do I fix this?
My web proider is Verizon Fios. I've contacted Verizon 4 times about this. I was instructed to delete Firefox and then download again. It didn't help. I'm able to get to your main window. Then, when I try to go to any website, the following window comes up: "The proxy server is refusing connections. Firefox is configured to use a proxy server that is refusing connections. It tells me to "Check the proxy settings to make sure that they are correct." I tried that w/ my Verizon support person but how is one to know what "settings" are "correct"? Finally the window instructs: "Contact your network administrator to make sure the proxy server is working." Who would my "network administrator" be? It wasn't Verizon as they told me they don't support Mozilla.
You can find the connection settings in Tools > Options > Advanced : Network : Connection
If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then select "No Proxy"

When I try to send email from my ipad, I get a message stating it will be stored in outgoing because it was rejected due to relaying? How do I fix this. I don't even know what relaying is.
Try going into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > select the account > account name , tap on SMTP (under the 'Outgoing Mail Server' heading) and then tap on your Primary Server and try entering your email account and password and see if it then works

Trying to upload pictures to a website, but it doesn't work. After going thru the whole process, I get a message saying; the server attempted to redirect you. Server redirection is not supported. This only happened after I updated Firefox. Never had this problem before.

The problem arises for such sites as the TV Guide. Normally, when I click on a listed show, a box appears telling me the details of that program. Not anymore.
Right click on the hyperlink and select “Open Link in New Tab," that will open a new tab and keep you from getting a blank page like most people get. I don't know why they changed this option. If you don't want to do that every time you can change it in the config.
1. In Firefox, type about:config into URL Location bar.
2.Click on I’ll be careful, I promise! button.
3.In the filter text box, enter the following text string with no quotations :
''''''browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent''''''
Alternatively, manually locate the preference name above.
4.The default boolean value for the browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent is “true”. Double click on the browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent to change its value to''' false'''.
5.Close the tab, and the change will take effect immediately.
Hope that helps some people.. -

I was told to update iTunes. I did and it failed. Then every time I tried to open iTunes I get the following message: "The program can't start because MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem." Then I get the following: "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (windows error 126)." I have uninstalled and installed iTunes a couple of times with no luck. I cannot even access iTunes support

I cannot open Pages documents that I have worked on and saved. When I try to reopen Pages documents that I've saved, I get the following
message:
"The document “[name of document]” could not be opened. The file isn’t in the correct format.
The file might be corrupted, truncated, or in an unexpected format."
I have downloaded the latest update to iWork, but that doesn't help.
I use Mac OSX 10.6.7
I am using Pages '09 version 4.0.5 (852)
If anyone can help, I would greatly appreciate it.
Best regards,
New York Mac UserA few general trouble shooting tips that may apply here:
1. If you used Software Update to do the OS update(s) to reach 10.6.7, go to http://support.apple.com/downloads/ and download and apply the Mac OS v10.6.7 Combo Updater. The Combo Updater contains some fixes that were not included in the incremental updaters used by Software Update.
1a. Check that you have the current version of Pages (and of the other iWork applications) installed. All three applications' current version numbers end in .0.5
2. A common cause of malfunctioning applications is a corrupted preferences file (.plist file). Your Pages '09's plist is at yourname > Library > Preferences > com.apple.iWork.pages.plist
Quit Pages, locate the file and Drag it to the Desktop (or to the Trash).
Restart Pages and attempt to open one of the files.
If all is well, Trash the plist file and empty the Trash.
If there's no change, AND you've made changes to the Preferences that you wish to keep, drag the file back to its previous location, replacing any new one that has been created.
Regards,

No matter how I try to finalize an imovie I get the following message:
"The project could not be prepared for publishing because an error occurred. (Error code = -49)"Hi
Error -49 opWrErr File already open with write permission
Trash the preference files while application is NOT Running.
Easiest way to find out if this is the problem is by:
• Create a new User-Account
• Log out of Your old one and into this
• Re-try iMovie
If it now works OK - then 99.9% the problem is iMovie pref. file that needs to be trashed.
from Karsten Schlüter
Some users notice on exporting larger projects from within iMovie that this operation is aborted with an 'error -49'
This issue occurs only on MacOs machines using 10.7x
try switching-off the Local Mobile Backup
in Terminal copy/paste
sudo tmutil disablelocal
Re-launch Mac

I signed in as my dad's ID, and now, I'm signed in as my own ID. The problem is, when I try to verify any update, it asks for my dad's ID password instead of mine. How can I fix this? I've already tried to sign in and sign out, but it doesn't work...
You need to delete and redownload those applications. His Apple ID is stored inside them.

I just downloaded Google Chrome and use both Google Chrome and Firefox as my browsers. However, whenever I click on an email link, it opens up Chrome and I want it to open Firefox. How do I fix this?
Go into FF Preferences & set it to be your default browser. This way when you click on an email link in Chrome, FF will open.
