Why can I no longer "share" news article and YouTube links to my Facebook?

In recent weeks I am no longer able to "share" links from online news articles and YouTube videos to my Facebook. Is this a Firefox issue or a Facebook issue? When I click share it shows the typical page, but does not process the task.

  • Why can I only accept the new terms and conditions and keep getting sent back to agreeing (5 times and still going in circles)

    Seems that I can no longer install anything, as every time I get forced to a page to read and accept the new terms and conditions - and no matter if I accept them or not, I only get sent back to read them again.   Another reason my next smartphone will be android based!

    The iTunes and Mac App Store / iCloud problem spontaneously resolved for me as of 21:54 Pacific Standard Time on 9/30/2012.
    Someone at Apple was aware of and fixed the problem. Finally.
    Yeah!

  • Why can I no longer enter new events

    I upgraded to OS 10.6.8 on my iMac and also upgraded to OS 5 on my iPad and iPhone.  Now I cannot enter new events on my Calendar on my iMac - says it is a "mail" calendar and cannot be changed.  I had this same problem last summer and unfortunately have no memory as to how I resolved it then!  Age!!!
    Any ideas?

    Wow. Me too. 
    And I didn't even realize new events were not copying over to my Mac until I read this.
    I just thought the problem was duplicates on my iOS devices.
    I tried hard resets and permission repairs to no avail. 

  • Why can't update to the new iMovie and iPhoto?

    I recently had to get a new hard drive in my MacBook Pro. After I installed Mavericks, I got a notification from the App Store saying there are two updates for iMovie and iPhoto. When I try to update them, I receive a message saying update unavailable with this apple ID. It goes on to say this update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or this item was refunded or cancelled. I have tried every possible Apple ID this could of been purchased with and receive the same message each time. I have no idea what to do to update these now. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried until the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    Follow the directions in this support article.
    Step 2
    Associate your Apple ID with your user account. Then sign in to the App Store with the same ID.
    Step 3
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/adoption.plist
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A folder may open with a file named "adoption.plist" selected. If it does, move the file to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Log out, log back in, and test.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combinationcommand-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    Step 4
    Contact Mac App Store Customer Service.

  • Why can I no longer select files manually and delete them?

    When I select music files that are on my phone and then press the delete button nothing happens. I also can not select and drag music to and from my library and/or phone. I can only seem to use the sync option and I don't like having to do that. Did something change suddenly in the way iTunes operates now? I have the latest version so I'm good there. I'm also not able to sort by "date added, artist, album, etc." What's happened???

    Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
    I knew I was just overlooking something somewhere. I didn't realize that there was more options on the Summary tab. I just needed to scroll down further. Thanks again!

  • Why can't I accept the new terms and conditions for iTunes?  It has been since I updated to ios7. Really thinking the update was/is more hassle than its worth. Ready to throw my phone from a moving car

    TThis whole update has been nothing but trouble for my phone. Yes there are some nice features but this is ridiculous. I have tried what others have said to do with no help.

    Tell me where you are planning to throw the phone out of your moving car.  I want to pick it up from the side of the road and resell it.

    Why can I no longer, after having downloaded Lion, write accents and other diacriticals when in the Google, Yahoo, FaceBook, or even here in this post? The new method for getting at the "option" symbols works fine in other places like spotlight, but now even the older "option+letter" doesn't work in most places.

    Chrome doesn't support the new accent/diacritics/macron chooser. I'm not sure about other browsers such as Firefox. You can use the old Option+letter combination that Doug suggested. Hopefully updates will solve these little incompatibilities shortly.

  • Why can I no longer use AirPlay with my Slingbox?  New updates break complatibility?

    Why can I no longer use AirPlay with my Slingbox?  New updates break complatibility?

    You already seem to know what the issue is, it is the parallax feature that was added to iOS 7.  From your rant, it appears that your attempt to work around this was not successful.  According to the Apple documents I've seen, they recommend that you enlarge your image (not reduce it).  Make your image have excess space on all sides, which is not displayed on the screen.  This way, when you tilt your device one direction or another, it can shift the image to give the appearance of 3D. 
    As a photographer, I like to use the full frame of my images, but I also know that I need to leave room around the image as well.  I have some photos I have taken that I can't use because I have them cropped too tightly too, but I have others that work just fine.  Just remember that part of the image file is "off screen" so that if iOS has to shift the image up it has some image that can scroll onto the screen.  It needs this space on all sdes, so just make youre images larger, and keep in mind that a portion on each side will be outside the normally visible screen...  If you don't like this feature, you can always go into the settigns and turn it off.

  • Why can I no longer see CS6 in creative cloud

    Why can I no longer see CS6 to download in Creative Cloud?

    HI Intro,
    Once you will launch Creative Cloud Desktop you will get the option "Find new apps" and a drop down in front of it.
    On the Drop down menu you need to select "Previous Version".
    Once you do that you will get the option to download the Creative Cloud applications.
    Please check and let me if it works or not.
    Thanks,

  • Why can I no longer sort songs by popularity?

    Why can I no longer sort songs by popularity?

    It seems this is a "backwards" upgrade from Apple in their iTunes 11 release....like you, I used to use that function in the iTunes store to sort through and decide which song version to purchase.   (For a large returned list of songs...see all...then sort by any of the headers, including Popularity...this functionality is now gone.)  
    The iPad always suffered from this...was never able to sort on those same column headers with an iPad.   It seems, this new iTunes release killed that functionality on the Mac as well.
    Just one of the few things that went wrong with number 11!
    Better luck next time,

  • This latest version of Firefox is complete pants! Why can I no longer have a nice, tidy little row of icons across the top so that I click and find things at an instance like I could with the Google Toolbar?

    This latest version of Firefox is complete pants! Why can I no longer have a nice, tidy little row of icons across the top so that I can click and find things at an instance, like I could with the Google Toolbar?
    Example:- I've just spent 20 minutes looking how to 'translate' after I installed that add-on, there it was! A tiny little icon in the bottom right of the screen, I find the new set up very messy and very hard to navigate. Why can't I have the same set up on my toolbar that I've had for the last ten years? It's that bad that I'm even considering going back to I.E.
    Jon T

    Thanks but you're only telling me stuff I already know, that dosen't explain how I get the new version of Firefox to look neat and tidy like it always used to. I can no longer have all my icons that I use, I can no longer access things as easily as I could and the whole thing looks very bare and basic now! A bigger mess than even Google Chrome.
    I've spent most of this evening trying to get stuff back that is now lost because of this 'upgrade' and I'm now giving up with it. Well done! You've totally ruined what was the best browser for years.

  • Why can I no longer import EDITED photo from my iPad to my Mac using Image Capture from Snapseed app?

    Why can I no longer import EDITED photo from my iPad to my Mac using Image Capture? This is farcical and a real problem having to email them individually to myself and is totally inefficient time wise compared to previously using image capture! Why change this when it was working well and very quickly until the latest change. Now I have to move files from downloads into an appropriate folder, after emailing each individual edited image to myself, then I have to open in Photoshop and rename the file. This is ludicrous and takes forever to do!

    Thank you! I suppected it would be in the settings somewhere. I' ve much to learn...get myself into trouble pushing buttons I don't really understand.
