Why am I told Bing is already installed when it does not exist on my computer????????

I removed Bing from my computer as I did not like it much. Since Google has now become such a useless piece of junk I decided to re-install Bing but each time I try I get the following message.
Quiote:
Firefox could not install the search plugin from "https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/downloads/file/54407/bing-20090601.xml?src=category" because an engine with the same name already exists.
This engine does no show up anywhere on my computer except for an XML file in Firefox/searchengines. I have deleted them but it makes no difference. The files do not show in Tools\addons nor in about:config. Please don't tell me that Firefox is become as useless as Google...............I don't want to have to use IE.

Bing should be installed as one of the default search engines (bing.xml in the searchplugins folder in the Firefox program folder)
If the file is there and you do not see it in Manage Search engines then click the "Restore Defaults" button to restore the default search engines.
If that didn't help then delete the search.json file and a possible search.sqlite file in the Firefox Profile Folder.

  • Why is Lion installed on external HDD and iMac says that Lion is already installed when it is not?

    I went into the Apps store then logged in to confirm that I wish to pay for the Lion upgrade from Mac OSX v10.6.8.
    The downloaded 3Gb installation file went into my Applications folder after a few hours:
    This installation application is still in the Application folder of the iMac.
    During the upgrade / installation, I got the following message, saying that the installation can't go in the HDD of the computer I was working on (ie. the iMac's Macintosh HD). I had no choice but to select the external HDD (WD-1T) as the installation destination, which proceeded very quickly.
    When the installation was complete, the iMac rebooted into a fresh Lion installation, running off the WD-1T! I can see all my old files on the Macintosh HD, as if that HDD was the external HDD!
    If I disconnect the WD-1T upon rebooting, I am back to Snow Leopard, running from the iMac's Macintosh HD. If I go the App store, it tells me I have already installed Lion on the iMac (when it is not the case)!
    When I go to my MacBook Pro (currently on Snow Leopard and not part of from the above installation), I see that Lion is purchased but not installed. If I click INSTALL, it starts to download what the iMac had earlier downloaded (the Install Mac OS X Lion.app is still sitting in the Application folder of the iMac).
    Question:
    Can anyone shed some light why this happening and how to get Lion onto the iMac?
    How to install Lion on the MacBook Pro without re-downloading the software?

    I would say it is related to the purchase date. FaceTime is included in 10.6.6~8 OEM discs.

  • Why CC Panel Show Muse CC as installed when it´s not?

    That´s what´s happening. I don´t have Muse and any trace of it neither but still showing in CC Panel as installed and up to date. And in consecuence I can´t install Muse CC. Please help!!!!

    Deryck:
    I recv'd the following from Vikas Sharma with Adobe which you may find helpful:
    This is an ongoing issue with Adobe Application Manager which causes it at times to not sync with Adobe Muse when it is uninstalled. I see that Adobe Muse is also not listed as a program in your Programs and Features window to uninstall any remnants of the same.
    Please use the following link to download and install the latest version of Adobe Muse for Windows: http://www.adobe.com/go/muse_latest_win
    Please try the above suggestion and confirm if this helps fix the issue. Look forward to hear from you.

  • I just downloaded the IOS 6 update on my iPad 2, and it deleted my youtube app that was already installed when I got the iPad. I want it back.

    Okay, I just downloaded IOS 6 on my iPad 2, and it deleted the youtube app that was already installed when I got the iPad, I downloaded the new app from the apple store and it doesn't fit my screen, this is ******* me off and I would like it back.

    Here is the thing the actual license for Apple to have a native YouTube app has expired you must understand this more about Apple removing Google from its ecosystem and less about actual licenses.  If Apple was so inclined I am almost certain they could have continued to provide a native YouTube app.
    Do you really think that Apple Maps are "better" for iOS users?  You know that you can set your default search to another provider such as Bing?  Imagine Apple changing its default Safari search to Bing.  You must understand that Google makes more from searches on iOS devices than it does on everyting that is Andriod (source:http://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/google-earns-four-times-more-from-ios-than-a ndroid/).  Apple is slowly and meticulously working on freeing iOS of Google products.
    Of course it is a free market and Apple will most certainly allow Google's apps on their app store.

  • Aperture ate my picture files and they are not recoverable.  The guy at the Genius Bar told me to Trash the App, empty Trash, then go to Purchases and reinstall.  But Purchases says it is "Installed" so it does not let me download it again.  HELP!!!!

    Aperture ate my picture files and they are not recoverable.  The guy at the Genius Bar told me to Trash the App, empty Trash, then go to Purchases and reinstall.  But Purchases says it is "Installed" so it does not let me download it again.  HELP!!!!

    I typed Aperture into Spotlight and sure enough it did show up.
    It looks like it is supposed to be in Apps.
    But it is not there.
    So I clicked on the spotlight Aperture and it opened up the App!!!!
    But I do not know where it is to move it!
    How can I find it?
    While Aperture is running and you are seeing it in the Dock, ctrl-click (or right click) the Dock icon.
    You will see a contextual menu. Click on "Options", then select "Show in Finder".
    And check the "keep in Dock" mark, so you will not lose it from the Dock.

    Hi lgmmo,
    I think your best best to get this resolved is to contact Adobe Customer Care. Here's the contact info: Contact Customer Care.
    A quick Chat session should get you fixed up.

    I find the Air easier to work with if I need a keyboard if, for no other reason, that's more compact to carry around than the iPad and a keyboard, even one that is part of an iPad case.  I also often have to access data from one application when using another, and iOS is not at its best when having to do rapid application switching (Command-Tab switching is a lot faster than the double press home, scroll the icons at the bottom and swap).
    As well, for editing I find the lack of sandboxing on OSX allows for efficiency enhancing utilities across applications, something you don't get in iOS.  I understand the reason for that, but while more secure it also creates issues of its own in terms of usability in a number of situations.
    I prefer the iPad for totally single application focused situations where little or no input is required.  I use my iPad to hold copies of manuals when I'm doing a full day continuing education presentation for CPAs.  A MacBook Aire can't really fill in very easily for that usage.
    I see them each as tools appropriate for different jobs.

  • Flash says already installed but it is not

    As stated.  I was having problems viewing some videos and figured it may be a problem with flash.  I had the 32bit version but I am running windows 7 64bit.  So I uninstalled adobe flash from the computer using the control panel, then rebooted.  Now When I attempt to download the Flash 64bit from the website (using IE 9, 64bit) the program downloads, and once it begins to say installing it stops and I receive a message saying A newer version of adobe flash is already installed.  But it is not installed and does not exist anywhere I can find on my computer.
    thanks for any help

  • How do I install an app when the app indicates it is already installed, but it is not?

    I am trying to install NFL 2011, but the app store indicates this app is already installed,  but it is not.   The "install" button is already faint.

    Have you checked all your homescreens and folders for it, and if you type in its name on the spotlight search screen (slide the first homescreen to the right) does that find it ? If you've got the maximum number of screens full (which I think is 11) then you can only access the extra apps via the search screen.
    Also, depending on whether the app has an age rating, have you set restrictions via via Settings > General > Restrictions.
    Another option is a reset and then see if it appears after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    Delete of hide the existing iDVD application T and all files with "iDVD" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder and from the /var/db/receipts/  folder,
    Click to view full size
    Then install iDVD from the disk it came on originally.

  • Why am I told to turn off airplay on my iPad (3rd generation) when it does not even HAVE airplay according to iOS7 specs?

    Why am I told to turn off airplay on my iPad (3rd generation) when it does not even HAVE airplay according to iOS7 specs?

    I have the same problem with my device specially with the NFL App and after maybe 2hrs of research I found out that Verizon has implemented that messege/restriction to keep the app "TRUE" mobile only. What I'm saying is that you won't get the NFL App to play no matter what you do if connected to HDMI adapter or AirPlay. I hope this helps more than the other/previous post. If you need re-assurance please click on the link where I found my information, below.

  • I re-installed Mountain Lion from a USB stick, and now my Apps can't be downloaded.  The App store indicates that the Apps are already installed, but that is not the case. Now what :)

    I re-installed Mountain Lion from scratch of a USB stick, and now my Apps in the App store ca not be installed, the App store indicates that they are already installed, but that is not the case.  Now what?

    Ok, this is somewhat of a better work around I've found:
    Starting in the Australian iTunes store, I go through the process of signing into the UK iTunes store up until the point it asks for my credit card information.
    I then click the 'X' in the top left of iTunes to exit the store.
    Now when I click on my Apps Updates button it shows me what UK Apps I have that are available to update.
    You can't download these as at this point I've changed the store I'm viewing, but haven't officially switched accounts. Not to worry.
    I write down the names of the UK Apps to update.
    Then, use the 'search store' field in the top right of iTunes to search for one of the Apps.
    Once you've found it, click to buy it / download it.
    iTunes recognises that the App is already in your account and downloads it again for free….
    … now I'm HOPING that that App is now fully within my Australian account… unfortunately only time will tell once there is a new update for it.
    I'll let you know.

  • SCCM 2012 R2 reporting error: "The DefaultValue expression for the report parameter 'UserTokenSIDs' contains an error: A specified logon session does not exist. It may already have been terminated. (rsRuntimeErrorInExpression)"

    Hi,
    I have two SCCM environments under same active directory domain and one service account have been used for SCCM configurations on both the environments (QA and PRODUCTION). I am facing similar error as mentioned above while trying to fetch reports on
    PRODUCTION site, but the QA site is working fine, though same service account have been used for configuring both. While looking at the reportserverservice_<date> log on my Production DB server i see the following error
    "processing!ReportServer_0-3!2124!01/02/2015-09:09:30:: e ERROR: Throwing Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportProcessing.ProcessingAbortedException: , Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportProcessing.ProcessingAbortedException: An error has occurred during
    report processing. ---> Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportProcessing.ReportProcessingException: Cannot read the next data row for the dataset DataSet1. ---> System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Conversion failed when converting the nvarchar value 'Override
    Default' to data type int."
    My DB and SCCM primary site are different and the reorting services point is installed on remote DB server. Please help me resolving the issue.
    Troubleshooting performed:
    1.Disabled the registry key 'EnableRbacReporting' from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SMS\SRSRP to 0 and then restarted SSRS service and the reporting worked for some minutes after that the registry key reverted back to 1 automatically and
    reporting started throwing errors again.
    2. Checked with the permissions on DB whether or not 'sysadmin' role is assigned to the SCCM service account.
    3. re-registered the SQL management Provider WMI class.
    mofcomp.exe “C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\110\Shared\sqlmgmproviderxpsp2up.mof”

    Hi All,
    Finally found exact solution to the reporting error.
    Error: while launching SCCM reports (both from Console and web based) an unexpected error occured with error message as "The DefaultValue expression for the report parameter ‘UserTokenSIDs’ contains an error: A specified logon session does not exist.
    It may already have been terminated. (rsRuntimeErrorInExpression)"
    Solution: This is password replication issue for the domain account used to configure reporting services point in SCCM. If your SQL SSRS reporting services instance and databse runs with local default account whereas the reporting services point on SCCM
    primary site is configured with domain account, (As in My case) you need to perform the following in order to get rid of the error.
    Launch 'Reporting Services Configuration Manager' from the SQL SSRS box(either Local or Remote), Connect to Report Server Instance->Go to 'Execution Account' tab->Specify the 'Execution Account' as domain account and password which is used to configure
    Reporting Services Point in SCCM Primary Site, and then click apply.
    Now Lauch the report either way (Web based or from Console), the error will disappear and all your default reports will execute perfectly as before.

  • [SOLVED] ABS - nasm - install file (nasm.install) does not exist

    I was attempting to build the nasm package and I encountered the following error:
    ==> ERROR: install file (nasm.install) does not exist.
    When reviewing the PKGBUILD file there was a line in the header:
    install=nasm.install
    ArchWiki (PKGBUILD) explains the install directive
    The name of the .install script to be included in the package. pacman has the ability to store and execute a package-specific script when it installs, removes or upgrades a package. The script contains the following functions which run at different times
    I removed the install= line and everything appeared to work.  My question is... does anyone know if the install script it was expecting to find did anything special that is going to cause me grief going forward?
    Thx

    I figured out what I did wrong.   I copied only the PKGBUILD file out of /var/abs/extra/nasm folder ..  the nasm.install was still in the folder.
    Explains why I couldn't find the answer on Google.
