Why can't I use AVG Safe Search in 6.0? Update notified me that new version was cause.

Incompatibility was reason given.

You misread that message. Firefox only disables Avast extensions that aren't compatible with Firefox 6.0, it doesn't disable the entire anti-virus or security application. See Avast support about the availability of an update for the Avast extensions for Firefox.

Why can't I use virtual scrolling on the touchpad on my laptop with the new version 5 of Firefox?

Virtual scrolling: being able to drag my finger along the right border of the touchpad to scroll up/down pages.

You can try to set the pref ui.trackpoint_hack.enabled to 0 or 1 on the about:config page to see if that makes it work.
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. 
*Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
*Preferences that have been modified show as bold(user set).
*Preferences can be reset to the default or changed via the right-click context menu.

How do I stop Firefox Start Page using AVG Safe Search?

When I use the search bar on the Firefox Start Page it uses AVG Safe Search. How can I change this so it uses Google instead?

See the [[Firefox has just updated tab shows each time you start Firefox]] article for details of how to solve this.

Why can't I use smart folders/searches on ANY random folder?

I am trying to do what I thought was a simple operation with Smart Folders, but it turns out it isn't.
I want to use a smart folder on ANY folder, and not just one specific folder.
For instance, let's say I want to find out which files in any folder I happen to choose consists of audio files that are either mono or stereo. This is easy to do if I just set the smart folder to search the entire disk, or one, specfic folder, but for some reason I can't just use the smart folder on ANY random folder I happen to choose.
Is there any workaround? Or any other way to do this?

Non authoritative answer: Only IE and Bing Toolbar versions are available. Did Microsoft decide to fund development strictly for their browsers?

When opening a new tab, can I make it go to my homepage? Currently "AVG Safe Search" opens with a new tab, I want it gone!

I downloaded the latest AVG update and with it they were more than happy to hit me with a stupid search bar at the top of Firefox, as well, when I open a new tab it goes to a page that looks like Google but is the AVG Safe Search page. I don't want it to happen! I would like if I could set it so Google home opens when I open a new tab but I haven't been able to find that option.

Try this?

I installed AVG 2011 Free, and Firefox 4 today on a friends compouter. The AVG Safe Search Toolbar is not available, even after disabling and enabling the Add On. I use AVG 2011 full Licence with Firefox 4 at home no problems. How do I fix this please

Works in IE no probs, Add On shows in Add On's List. AVG Safe Search Toolbar not available in toolbar lists.

Because I am having issues with Norton Security Suite with the upgrade to Firefox 4.0.1, I have been dealing with that as well, with no success to-date. However, I did notice today when I was looking in my trash, an interesting thing occurred with the upgrade that MAY have something to do with the apps. in Facebook not working correctly now with Firefox.
In my trash, there are several folders of 'Recovered Files'. Two of them are loaded with Internet Plugins for Facebook and were all dumped on May 1st, the day I upgraded to v. 4.0.1 Firefox and began having all my problems. For example, they are plugins like: plugin-cross domain.xml, plugin-gateway-1.php, plugin-102452128776.gz-72.json, just to name a few of them. Now, I am wondering if they were inadvertently removed during the upgrade process, or if they are in conflict with the new upgrade. Should I put them all back into Library -->Internet Plug-Ins to see if that resolves the problems? There are so many of them, I wish there was a way to mark them in some fashion in case I would have to remove them and not take the wrong ones out! Maybe there is a way I can color code them before I move them. I hate using 2 browsers!
I notice that 2 other people have this problem but I don't see where they left any post. I really wish Norton, Firefox, and Facebook would get this ironed out. I never had a problem with anything until this and I don't like to spend all my time trying to troubleshoot something I don't understand! Anyway, thanks for listening.

How can I update to firefox 6 nowing that both my anti-virus(avg safe search) and my user srcipt manager/editor(greasemonkey) add-ons aren't compatible?

you are sending me a firefox security update but it is not compatible with my anti-virus(avg safe-search) and my user script manager(grease monkey). I sincerely doubt I'll be surfing more secure without them.
I won't update until you fix that.

Unless you want to Test the 6.0 Beta 1 then just install Firefox 5.0 to stay on the Release channel and only get release update prompts whether security or next Major release.
Actually that prompt is not really a security update per say but a update option to try the 6.0 beta 1 since you are on the Beta channel due to still using the 5.0 Beta 7 as you said.
Actually there is a recent version of GreaseMoneky that will work, however not sure about the AVG extension at moment.

I have an old iPod Touch with old software that can no longer be updated:
iOS version 6.1.6
I've been searching for a solution to my iMessage login problem for months and tried everything from those frustrating links and all the tips from other users.
Here is what finally worked:
1) Settings > Privacy > Location Services > On
2) Settings > General > Date & Time > Set Automatically > On
3) Reboot device until Apple logo appears
4) Settings > Messages > Sign In

Do you have another Apple ID by any chance? There are many, many discussions about this message that you are getting. Here is one where it seems that these users were able to resolve it.

Why can't i use command F in Notes?

Hi all, i recently upgraded my to a newer macbook. i used to be able to use command f to search my notes. i'm now using 10.8.2 and for some reason i can't search/find. i hit 'command f' i get the bleep sound. when i look at Edit > Find > Find, the word find is greyed out.
what should i do? i've tried googling and searching for a solution but the work 'notes' is too broad and so it brings up loads of irrelevant stuff.
thanks
shane

Hi, thanks but no good. can you see how the 'command f' function is greyed out in the image below? why can't i use that 'Find' function? the box you've identified does a broad brush search to see if any of my notes contain a word but don't identify where the words are within the note. i have some notes with 10's of thousands of words.
does anyone know how i can use the traditional 'Find' function?

Why can´t I use inport VI in win xp even when I have used userport aplication?

why can´t I use inport VI in win xp even when I have used userport aplication for enabling port reading in this plattform?, I´m getting data from the parallel port in epp mode, my pc´s pararell is ok bcs I can read data in c++

If you have an older LabVIEW (6.1 or earlier) you will need to exchange the in port and out port VIs that came with LabVIEW with different ones and install a DLL. The reason is documented here . This link (which is the first link returned when you search ni.com for "in port") explains basically that the OS won't let you until you have kernel level access. The devzone link at the bottom of the refered page will include all of the code that you need to install (VIs and DLL) to make it work.

Frequent "Firefox has encountered a problem and needs to shut down" window. Need to disable adblock plus and AVG safe search to continue. Any way to fix?

For about a third of websites I visit, at some point I receive a "Firefox has encountered a problem and needs to shut down" window. I have to disable both Adblock plus and AVG safe search in order to continue. This used to happen for two or so sites, and I disabled the ad-ons before going to those sites. It has increased to the point that the adblock plus and safe search ad-ons are becoming pretty useless. Is there any way to rectify this problem. Sending error reports has no effect.

Have you changed anything in the Photoshop installation areas? If the updater doesn't find a pristine installation it will fail.
The only area you should ever put anything into is the plug-ins subfolder. Everything else is hands-off.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).

Does your incompatability with my AVG safe search leave me vulnerable?

You're trying to get me to upgrade to 6.0.1, but say you will disable AVG Safe Search 10.0. That appears to leave my computer vulnerable and has stopped me from upgrading to your new product. You say you'll make the upgrade compatible with AVG, but when? And what happens to my computer's security in the meantime? Thanks!

'''Read''' the second item, then the first item on this AVG page:
*http://forums.avg.com/us-en/avg-forums?sec=thread&act=show&id=171860
Firefox has a built-in function to keep you away from known malware and phishing sites. The '''''Safe Browsing''''' component is similar to some functions provided by AV/AS toolbars.
