Why does Yahoo's pop-ups still popup even though pop up blocker is turned on and no exception for them?

On Yahoo's page two thing happen... 1.) Ad will all of a sudden become whole page ad and 2.) continually get a facebook for yahoo pop up usually upon opening a yahoo related news link

try disabling the pop-up blocker entirely and then see if you are able to bring up your contacts.
In order to turn your Pop-Up Blocker on and off in Mozilla Firefox, please do the following:
1. In Mozilla Firefox click on the Tools menu, then select Options.
2. Click on the Content tab at the top of the "Options" window.
3. Then go to the Block pop-up windows option, and remove the check mark.
4. Click the OK button at the bottom of the window.
If it permits then it will mean that the problem is indeed with the Firefox pop-up blocker only.
In case it still does not permit opening on contacts then the issue is because of something else (do you have any toolbar installed eg yahoo toolbar)
Try and let us know what were the results ...

  • Why does the snmpcoll process always start up even if SNMP Statistics Collection is turned off?

    Why does the snmpcoll process always start up even if SNMP
    Statistics Collection is turned off?
    <P>
    The SNMP Statistics Collection field on the Server Status|SNMP
    Subagent Configuration form affects only the SNMP subagent, which is a separate entity from
    the collector process (snmpcoll). Currently, snmpcoll does not look
    at the SNMP configuration data when it starts up. It is started by
    the dispatcher and terminates when the dispatcher terminates. Many
    of the statistics are supposed to reflect cumulative values recorded since MTA
    initialization, such as the total number of messages sent and received.
    As a convenience, the collector process collects information in the
    background even while the SNMP subagent is turned off; this way,
    the values are available when the SNMP subagent is configured and
    turned on.

    Collections fall off on the Date of First Deliquency 7-7.5 years later; that is supposed to be reported as the first time you went late (1-30 days) on the OC (original creditor) in the chain of events leading up to it's being farmed out for collection as I underestand it. DOFD though sometimes doesn't get reported right, and by default it will be the date the collection is added to the bureaus. As an example I have an awkward collection (not sure how I got it looking at the payment history thought I'd cancelled that account but TWC billing apparently didn't think so) which I went late on in 2009, but didn't get farmed out till late 2010.  The DOFD is 6/09 looking at it, and it's expected to come off according to the bureaus 6/16 as a result. Different negatives have their own rules though.

  • Why does acrobat reader 10 keep re-installing even though acrobat pro 11 installed

    I have Acrobat Pro 11 installed, and even though I keep uninstalling (Windows 7, Programs and Features) Acrobat Reader 10, it keeps re-installing it.
    How to I stop this from happening?

    No, acrobat pro isn't doing it, it looks like updater is doing it.  It's as if updater still thinks acrobat reader 10 is installed and tries to update it for me.
    And yes I am on a corporate network, but there are no 'AD policies' in place to install reader or update it.  And other users with Pro on their system don't have this issue.

  • Why does Yahoo search pop up if I try to search something during boot up period. Does Firefox own Yahoo, or vice versa. SO annoying...can i get rid of Yahoo?

    No further details necessary..pretty self-explanatory.

    On your MacBook: Go to System Preferences > Network. Select Wi-Fi from the left column. Click the Advanced... button.
    Under the Preferred Networks list, select every Wi-Fi network that appears and delete each one using the "–" (minus) button. Select the box "Remember networks this computer has joined" if it is not already selected.
    OK then Apply.
    Select your AirPort Extreme's wireless network in your Mac's Wi-Fi menu, and determine if that solves its connection problems.
    Our alarm company set up the camera with the D-Link before we got the Ariport and we can't figure out how to hookup the camera to the Airport without the D-Link.
    You may need to solicit the security company's help. Adding your Extreme to your network as a router constitutes a fundamental change in your network's design. If you are now using the Extreme as your router, the D-Link router should be reconfigured as a bridge. Depending on the nature of your security system, it may not be required at all, but your concern about the security camera requiring specific port forwarding settings is justified. Changing your router from the D-Link to the Extreme may require forwarding specific ports using AirPort Utility, otherwise your security camera's video may not be accessible from the Internet. This goes beyond any help I can provide, since your security system has requirements of its own.
    Configuring the Extreme as a bridge is likely to solve the problem... but if the D-Link wireless router was sufficient, do you really need another access point? The reason I'm asking is this:
    ... I purchased an Airport Extreme for Wi-Fi and to back up my MacBook files. 
    If you need a wireless backup device for Time Machine, a Time Capsule may be a better choice.

  • Why does iTunes keep sending songs to trash, even though I haven't deleted them?

    There is one specific album in my itunes library that itunes (on a daily basis!) deletes 4/5 songs from. It almost always deletes the same songs, I just don't understand why this would be happening? The only time I realise is if I happen to scan through the trash before emptying.
    Theres no alert regarding deletion or consolidation of files, in fact there have been times where some of these songs are on a playlist and when the playlist goes back to the start, some of these songs can't be located again, and are in the trash folder again.
    I should clarify that I keep my itunes library on an external harddrive, although I don't see how this would affect it.
    Has anyone else come across this problem before, and more importantly found a solution?
    Thanks,
    Daryl

    Turns out it was firewall related. Even when I turned the firewall off and rebooted, it didn't help. I finally had to uninstall Avast antivirus, and then everything worked great.
    To anyone else who has this issue with Avast and iTunes/Bonjour, I also found this thread that might be worth trying:

  • Why does my iPhone 4S ios7 sometimes brick even though it has battery life?

    I know it sounds weird, but I have had this problem more than a few times since I upgraded my 4S to iOS 7. It will be working just fine, and then it will die. Kaput. Nada. Dead
    It just did it within the past few hours. It was registering a 70% charge while I was taking pictures, and then it suddenly just bricked on me. I put it back on an AC charger as soon as I could (actually, the closest one was the one for my iPad Air), but it wouldn't even acknowledge that it was on the charger. No beep. No vibration. Nothing. I let it sit for about 10-15 minutes and then finally just held the power button down, and eventually after about a minute the bleeping thing gave me a white apple screen. FINALLY!! When the Apple screen went away, I looked at my home screen, and the battery was down to 40%. Really?? I didn't do anything!! It was freaking dead!!
    Am I the only one with a psycho phone? Please, someone, say I'm not alone.

    I usually hear about this when the user has done an over-the-air iOS update.  The only way to back out of it is through a firmware update or "DFU."
    Connect to a computer with internet access and the latest version of iTunes.  Perform a backup first and you should be able to restore from the backup after DFU.
    Press and hold both the sleep/wake button and the home button for ten seconds.
    After ten seconds, continue holding the home button, but let go of the sleep/wake button.
    The iPhone should go dark and you should see a popup on the computer.  It should say, "iTunes has detected a device in Recovery Mode. . ."  If there is no popup and the iPhone shows the Apple logo, you can immedeately try again.  It often takes an experienced user two or three attempts before the device successfully enters recovery mode.
    Follow all of the popups and a new version of iOS will be installed.  If your issue was firmware, you should feel free to restore from the backup.  If the issue returns, that means it was a software issue.  In that case, you'll need to do another DFU and restore the iPhone as a new device.

  • Why does my iPhone 4 intermitently stop ringing even though it is not switched to silent?

    Every now and then my iPhone 4 stops making any noise. My alarm will still go off but no sound comes out. When called the phone vibrates but again no sound.
    If I switch the phone off totally and switch on again it will work fine again for a while but all of a sudden it will stop working again without warning?

    Have you tried using a different USB port?

  • Why does Indesign say I have missing fonts even though they are in my packaged document?

    I use CS4 on my pc at work, and always package my files, as I have always done on my mac at home, to keep the links and fonts together so that when I send someone a folder, all of the fonts and images work.  For some reason, the packaged graphic designs (created on a mac) that are being sent to us from our graphic designer, all of my fonts are lost - even after having purchased the main one that we use - Gotham - to prevent this from happening.  This also occurs with any designs that I package and send out to others in our office.  I always have to relink the Gotham fonts, and I cannot retrieve the formatting for the fonts that we don't have, even though they are packaged. 
    We are considering purchasing a mac for me to use in the office, but I'd like to make sure that it is not user error before we proceed.
    Any ideas would be wonderful.  I never had this problem with my mac at home with packaging, and it has me confused and frustrated at work.
    Thanks!

    Since CS6 is the current release, upgrading to CS5 is a near impossibility, and EVERYONE will need to upgrade in lockstep or you'll be worse off than you are now with users of your newer version creating files that cannot be opened by users of CS4 (and your CS4 packages won't automatically install the fonts in the documents in the later versions without manually changing the names of the packaged fonts folders).
    As far as font formats, if you are going to collaborate cross-platform, the font of choice is OpenType, which is 100% cross-platform compatible, and second choice is Windows TrueType which also can be installed on Mac OS X (so, essentially, also cross-platform). Last choice would be to use Windows Type1 which can be installed in the private InDesign Fonts folder in the Mac applications folder and will work in ID, but nowhere else. Any of these would allow everyone to use the same fonts, presuming you all purchase the same versions. Purchasing Windows versions and Mac versions of the same font usually works, but there may be little surprises, and you probbly don't want that.

    Hi,
    For maintenance.

    Check your Applications folder. If you don't want the app, just drag it to the Trash.
    IMHO you do not need this utility. Your Mac will do maintenance for you.

  • Why does the old iphoto library still remain after the upgrade? Takes up HUGE space on my laptop

    Why does the old iphoto library still remain after the upgrade? Takes up HUGE space on my laptop

    Why does the old iphoto library still remain after the upgrade? Takes up HUGE space on my laptop
    Actually, it only looks like it takes up additional space. The file size shown is misleading.  When you migrate an iPhoto library to Photos, both libraries will show the media files using hard links. The actual file content of the image files and videos is shared by hard links:
    See this linked document:   Photos saves disk space by sharing images with your iPhoto or Aperture libraries - Apple Support
    You will gain no free storage at all by deleting either the iPhoto Library or the Photos library.  So keep both libraries until you are very sure, that Photos is working well  on your Mac and your iPhoto library has been migrated correctly. Also, check, if you like the workflow in Photos. It is very different from iPhoto and some iPhoto features are not supported.
    There will be no easy way back to iPhoto, if you delete your iPhoto library or the iPhoto application. Apple does not sell it any more.
