Why can't I remove the Work Offline feature?

I keep getting an error message when I open a new Firefox window which says: Offline mode, Firefox is currently in offline mode and can't browse the Web. Uncheck "Work Offline" in the File menu, then try again.
I do not have the "Work Offline" feature checked. I can not open my Home Page or any other website. I've never had this problem before & I need to know why Firefox has stopped working. Do I need to reinstall the program or is there something else I can do?

You can create a new Boolean pref with the name network.manage-offline-status and set the value to false.
You can right-click on the about:config page to open the right-click context menu and use "New > Boolean" to create a new Boolean pref.
Name: network.manage-offline-status<br />
Value: false
To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />

  • Why can't I remove the back ground with Photoshop?

    Here is the original HQ photo. I have used Microsoft paint and cleaned it up pretty well to get the following image.
    Now I'm trying to do a better clean up of this photo but I can't get smart selection to work properly it keeps either trying cut parts of the vehicle out or add other vehicles in the shot. Also tried cleaning up the car reflection seen in the doors that also doesn't seem to working right as it just made a blurred mess removing body lines and everything. Now the clean up I did with Paint seems to be good but why can't I do it better with photoshop? Isn't photoshop supposed to be better than paint and more user friendly? Also I wanted the vehicle only and the background to be transparent I can't do that with paint or photoshop at least as far as I can tell..... Seems to me it's just to smart for its own good or either I'm a complete idiot... Someone mind helping me out here?

    Since the top of the vehicle is as blown out as the sky, Photoshop is just thinking you want to include those areas as well. You probably would have been better served by using something like the Lasso Tool, selecting an outline of the vehicle (not right to the vehicle but a rough space around it, almost like a cutout). You would then click the Mask button at the bottom of the Layers panel. This puts a non-destructive mask on your image where you would then tweak the rest by erasing the edges off the rest of the mask (all non-destructively; if you make a mistake you just "paint" it back in with black).
    Thus, Photoshop pwns Paint. 
    ON EDIT: Note that the next to last sentence above applies to when using the Eraser Tool. The reverse happens with the Paint Tool; painting with white reveals (the image); black conceals.
    ON EDIT TO THE EDIT: In order to get background transparency you must save in a file format that supports transparency, like PNG. JPEG, for example, does not support transparency.

  • Why Can't I Remove the Transitions?

    Without any obvious reason, suddenly I can't remove the transitions in my project. A strange audio glitch appeared in the project after I burned it to a DVD (a piece of audio repeated just before a fadeout to black - any idea why that occurred?) so I went back to the original in iMovie and tried to delete the fadeout but wasn't able to. Then I tried to delete some of the other transitions in the project, including dissolves, and they are all stuck. Nothing happens when I hit "delete." Did I lock something in place without meaning to?
    Diana

    Good idea but it didn't work. The transitions won't budge. I've never encountered this before!
    Here's a new twist to add to the puzzle: One of the transitions that I'm trying to eliminate shows up in the trash bin. But it's still in the movie!
    Quitting and re-opening doesn't work. I've tried it a few times.
    Every single transition in the whole 53 minute project seems to be locked in place.
    Also - I'm wondering if the problem that popped up in the first place is related to the "locked" transitions. I needed to eliminate one fadeout and one dissolve because there's an odd little repeat of the last piece of audio during the dissolve or during the fadeout. In other words, as the transition begins, you hear the same words twice, which is quite jarring. For the first one, I can slide another piece of background audio under the fadeout to cover up the repeating audio piece but later in the movie, I don't have anything to cover up the repeat audio during the dissolve, so I really need to get rid of that dissolve.
    What's going on, man? : )

  • Why can't I remove the long BOOKMARKS button from the right hand end of the bookmarks toolbar?

    This button is completely superfluous and takes up space on my Bookmarks Toolbar. How do I remove it please?
    To be clear, I have the 'normal' bookmarks button on my main toolbar that opens up my bookmarks in the panel on the left. What is the purpose of the Bookmarks button on the right end of the bookmarks toolbar that opens up the same bookmarks in a different presentation, and how do I get rid of it?

    Thanks very much Vivek and the-edmeister, now I understand and have managed to remove the unwanted button. I beieve the ergonomics of all this are very poor - starting from the fact that 'customize' gives the impression you are in control of what appears and what doesn't, but this is confused by the fact that Firefox is also adding and removing icons depending on what toolbars are showing. Also, and the main cause for this problem, the icon I want to remove from Bookmarks toolbar does not show on Bookmarks toolbar in 'Customize' view. AND, there's the fact that the icon doesn't even look the same in the two views so it's not obvious that moving the little button (in customize) will affect the larger button with text that's on another toolbar!
    For other people with the same problem, my re-writing of Vivek's original solution so it works on my system is this:
    Please try this: right-click on the '''+''' after the last tab and '''Customize''' and click, hold and drag the star icon that has the little down arrow beside it from any of the toolbars on which it appears (it probably <b>won't</b> be in the Bookmarks toolbar!) into the Customize mini window.
    Thanks again both.

  • After removing my payment info, why can't I remove the credit card type

    How can I completely remove all of my payment information? I already removed all of my info but can't seem to remove the credit card type (Visa, MasterCard, etc.). After removing the info I am able to, I click Done and then in red letters the words, "There's a billing problem with a previous purchase. Please update your payment method." pop out. I don't know what to do. Can someone help me please?

    That message implies that iTunes wasn't able to collect the payment for your last purchase i.e. that you owe iTunes money - until that is paid off you won't get the 'none' option, or be able to download anything from the store (including redownloading and app updates). If the card that you had on you account isn't been accepted by iTunes then do you have a different card that you can put on, or are iTunes gift cards available in your country, so that you can pay what iTunes thinks that you owe ?

  • Why can't i get the air print feature of ipad to print labels with consistent alignment

    we are a medical office and uses iPad to chart as part of electronic medical record.  We use the airprint to print our biopsy labels but are having problems to have the lebels to print within alignment consistently.  There does not seem to be a patter why sometime it is aligned and why sometimes it is not.  The EMR vendor said it is not a software issue.  Not been able to get help with Apple tech support.

    It seems to me it would be an issue with the print drivers of the printer you are using, related to your specific printer and the way it interprets print jobs coming from Air Print.  What printer are you using and is it Air Print enabled, or are you using  some other type of solution? Can you print the labels, properly aligned, from some other non-iOS platform? 

  • Why can't I see the new ios5 feature to set up an airport base station?

    Set up your Wi-Fi network with your iPad, iPhone, iPod touch, or Mac.
    With the setup assistant built into iOS 5 and OS X Lion, you’re just a few taps or clicks away from setting up a new wireless network or extending your current one. All you need to do is plug in your Time Capsule and connect it to your DSL or cable modem. Then simply select your Time Capsule in Wi-Fi settings in iOS 5, or from the Wi-Fi menu in OS X Lion, and follow the instructions. The setup assistant does the rest. In less time than it takes to make a cup of coffee, your network is up and running.
    Wi-Fi setup in iOS 5:
    In Wi-Fi Settings, tap your Time Capsule to create a new network.
    Select Create a New Network, give it a password, and tap Next.
    Now you’re connected to your new network. Tap Done and you’re up and running.
    This is what can be done but in my Wi-Fi settings I am not seeing the Time capsule
    Please help!

  • How can i completely remove the unwanted sync "feature"?

    i hate this stupid "feature". My tablet and desktop do NOT fill the same function, and do NOT need to share bookmarks. I don't want to lose Firefox from my android, but it looks like it's the only way to get rid of this unwanted intrusion.

    Thanks for that, but Firefox for Android sticks a very large banner across the start-up screen of my tablet. It's an irritant, which I suppose was the objective of the developer, but I really want rid of it. Surely the design isn't so sloppy that there's no switch/flag to permanently prevent the nag??

  • Why can't I remove vocals?

    If I open itunes, right-click a song, get info, options, equalizer preset, I am able to select an option to boost the vocals of a specific track. However I cannot reduce the vocals, why not?! And why can't I remove the vocals completely? I want more options Apple!

    This may fix it. Open Terminal in Utilities and Copy/Paste -- don't attempt to type this in. This will set the correct Permissions on your Home Folder. (Disk Utility Permissions Repair won't touch these.)
    sudo chown -R `id -un`:`id -gn` ~
    Then hit return.
    If you've never used the sudo command before, you will get a warning and then be prompted to enter your admin password, which you won't see on the screen as you type it in.
    Wait until you get a new $ sign prompt and then close the window.
