Why won't my favicon show up when the code and the favicon.ico file are correct? I am using Dreamweaver CC.

I have tried numerous .ico file makers and am using the code <link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico" /> in the <head> section and the favicon.ico sits above the index file, but it is not showing up on the tab in Firefox or IE. I have also tried numerous designs, as I thought that might be the problem -- here are a couple and . What am I doing wrong? I have tried everything and Googled everything. I also use PC, but I hope that doesn't stop the Mac users from helping me.

Thank you Jon. As I mentioned to Nancy, the Favicon finally showed up this morning. But also thank you for another time saving piece of advice that saved me a lot of time and effort and is not mentioned anywhere. You are so right, "There's really no reason to add the code in the <head> if the favicon.ico is in your site root. Simply placing it there will do the trick in all browsers." I only put the code on my index page because I wasn't sure it would ever show up, and lo and behold, when it finally did this morning, it did on all pages and they had no code.
It is unfortunate that on all the websites (and I read what felt like all of them) dealing with Favicons, no one mentions these points. It's simple
create the 16px by 16px favicon.ico
Place it in the site root
Empty your cache and bookmark the page
Wait -- it will show up, possibly the next day.

Why does my iphone 6 show 700 songs on it and itunes says that there are no songs on my phone?

why does my iphone 6 show 700 songs on it and itunes says that there are no songs on my phone?

The "streaming" that iTunes Match does is not the traditional streaming we are used to. iOS 6 actually downloads the song to non-permanent memory on the iOS device in a cache. The advantage of this is it then makes the tracks available for listening to again without having to stream it again. You can clear out the cache by either power cycling the device or disabling/enabling iTM. I prefer doing the former.

Why won't a cursor show up in the shape when I double click it?

I thought you could just double click the shape to type in it...The cursor shows up outside the shape in the main part of the document or it highlights unrelated text from a text box, but it won't put a cursor in the shape. After trying 50 times, I will finally get the cursor in the box.

For every vague question, there is a vague answer.
--> Fair enough
What version of Pages?
--> v. 4.3
What shape?
--> any shape, square, rounded corner square, circle, arrow...
Inline or floating?
--> etried both modes, but want floating
Do you have an image in the shape?
--> empty shape, want text
What else is on the page?
--> 3 text boxes, ea sized to fit 2 words
Do you have a screen grab?
--> prefer not to post pic, but it is basically default shapes colored white and made ~2x3" with plain text inside, dragged into rows where text boxes are titles.
Anyway, there is really nothing out of the ordinary with the doc. When Pages Help says "Double click the shape and type the text you want," it does not work to just double click in the middle of the shape, like I would guess. I had to double click near the edge of the shape.

Why won't any documents show up when I do a search in InDesign?

Every time I do a search to open a document in InDesign, NOTHING shows up!
I have to go back to my desktop and open the document from my finder.
How can I get InDesign to complete my search request if nothing shows up in the list when I do a search?

Any solution found yet?
I, too, am experiencing the same issue ONLY with Indesign. I've done test searches in Word and other apps.
The first screen shot shows the window contents when I first launch "Open a File" out of Indesign (showing files on the Desktop - NOTE 3rd file name containing "Call Log") ...
The second screen shot shows a search for a file containing "Call Log" -- no results returned.

Why won't my mac highlight items when I click and drag?

Has anyone had their mac suddenly stop highlighting? When I click and drag it does not highlight.

Take the case off... does the screen turn off like it is designed to do when the device is near your face?
If it does, the case is the problem.
If it does not, then the sensor may be faulty, restore the device as new and try again.

Why my mouse can't show scroller when the mouse point moving to right side?(Safari 8.0)

It's very annoying for me in Safari of Yosemite about scrolling by other brand mouse.
When I'm using other brand mouse(3 keys), my mouse point swing to the right side in Safari being ready for showing scroller,
but nothing happen. My habit will be using left mouse key to scroll if I don't use my trackpad.
My only way now is that scrolling my middle key of mouse making scroller show up and click the little bar, but it doesn't feel like previous version.

Check your settings in System Preferences > Mouse > Point & Click

Why won't Verizon iPhone send iMessage when on call and Wifi?

I am new to Verizon and am aware of the simultaneous voice and data limitation, however I was under the impression that wifi would work normally while on a phone call, and it does.
However I am finding that when on a phone call, and successfully on wifi, iMessages do not get sent. They fail.
Anyone else get this? Can you please test it?
I have a iphoen 5 on 6.0.1 already BTW but have no idea if it happened before with 6.0.
Brian

He is correct. All data is in one giant pool once you are on Wifi. The prioritization is first come first serve, unless the phone is implementing some sort of QoS at the packet level, which is very unlikely. This is the same way a full computer works, everyone sends their data broken up into small packets (Each packet is ~1k in size at maximum.) All of those packets just go into a queue in the order they were sent, and the modem handles sending them out.
The question is if iMessage is really going over the standard data routing, or if they are still using some sort of SMS wrapper. If its just data, it shoud send/recieve without issue regardless of what other data applications are running.

Why won't my swatches show up in the "newest" tab?

I made a few swatches that I wanted to display and get input on but I'm not sure if I am doing the right thing as far as getting them to display in the "newest"" I was hoping someone could tell me how to go about that.

Hi there!
You have to make sure that when you create your theme, you have the "Public" button checked when you save.

Why won't Firefox automatically show new Hotmail emails or easilly down load attachments when it was working a week ago?

Why won't Firefox automatically show new Hotmail emails or easily down load attachments when it was working a week ago?

Hotmail has been having a few hiccups lately I'm afraid.
If you don't see any emails when you log in, or nothing appears after some time, click in the middle of the grey bar on the left which has the word "'''Inbox'''" in it. This usually causes them to magically appear for some strange reason.
I've read on on a few blogs that Microsoft is working on the problem, but don't hold your breath.<br><br>
If this suggestion resolves the problem for you, please click the '''Solved it''' button next to this post after you log in into the forum. This will help others searching for a solution to the same problem.
Thanks.

I have this identical problem. For a while my group texts didnt show up on my ipad. Then one day they did, maybe everyone in the group started using the same os version or something. Ever since my first reply to the group there have been complaints of multiple threads. I can not find a pattern for when my group text's decide they want to create a new thread. (it doesnt happen every time) Everyone in the group has deleted the thread, we've all toggled imessage on/off etc. There still hasn't been a solution.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

If you have all your music on the cmputer then i would connect up my phone uncheck the Sync Music option and apply.
This should take all the music off your phone .Then you can resync the music back on to it.
If this doesn't work maybe a restore to factory settings and start from scratch is the way to go

Why don't my tags show up when re-saving a document that I previously tagged?

I love the idea of tags. I use them religiously in Lightroom to organize and recall my photos. The one thing that makes tags ineffective though is the amount of effort it takes to enter them. But being a true believer of the value I do it. That being said, the way Apple has implemented tags is driving me nuts.
I create a document
I click save
I enter a name and
I enter tags - BTY I wish I could expand the tagging window to see all the tags I have entered and all the tags that are available
Later I make changes to my document and I want to add tags so I selected save as
PROBLEM - All the tags that I previously saved with this document are gone. I have to renter them. This is horrible!
Why don't my tags show up when re-saving a document that I previously tagged? Is there anyway to get my Mac to recognize that I previously tagged this file and display my tags?
If not, APPLE PLEASE FIX SOON.

Adobe Lightroom issues are best posted in the Adobe forums - not an Apple issue to be addressed, even though it is occurring in a OSX 'Save Dialog'.

Why won't my Razr Maxx ring when called from my home phone or the other cell phone (I-phone) on my Verizon account?

Why won't my Razr Maxx ring when called from my home phone or the other cell phone (I-phone) on my Verizon account?

Hi Ruth:
Thanks for reaching out to me about this issue.
This has been happening since I got the phone a couple of years ago.
I did not realize that my home land line and my wife's cell phone
always go straight to voice mail until my wife pointed it out to me
several months ago. Is there a setting I can adjust?
Yes, I can make calls to our home land line and to her cell phone
without being diverted to voice mail.
Any advice you might have would be most welcome.
Thanks.

Why won't my apps show on my main screens? The only way I can access them is by going back to the App Store and clicking open.

Why won't my apps show on my main screens? The only way I can access them is by going back to the App Store and clicking open.

So there are no apps at all on your home screens? Try a reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot. If you don't see anything after that, take a look at all of your home screens and folders to see if something is hidden. It that doesn't work, you can go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.

Why does my internet password show up when I reply to an email from my cell?

Why does my internet password show up when I reply to an email from my cell?

this question is extremely broad. can you describe what you mean? where does the password show up? in the signature line? as the subject? in the body? and what internet password? your home provider? your cell provider? what's the password for? your email account? or is your phone password protected? details.
