Work uses Firefox as default browser, I use Firefox as my default browser at home. When I get home my home page has been reset to the work homepage. What gives?
Recently, my office has integrated a new mail server to reduce traffic on the public website. The administrator assigned the new mail server as the home page. Our default browser is Firefox.
I also use Firefox at home. When I open my browser at home the google page comes up, then when I select the "home" icon it redirects me to the office mail server.
I can change my home page on my browser to my actual home page. It will remain on my "actual" home page during all sessions until I open the browser at work. Once I do that and go home it switches to the work "home page". Again, I can physically change it on my home browser and have it work all the time I am at home, but if I work and open the browser it changes my home "home".
Try:
* [[Removing the Search Helper Extension and Bing Bar]]
You can open the <b>about:config</b> page via the location bar and do a search for <i>bing</i> via the Filter at the top of that page.<br />
You can reset all <i>bing</i> related prefs via the right-click context menu to their default values.
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 />
You can use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a pref more easily.

'the preferences file is corrupt and has been reset to the default settings' - cs4 Mac
greetings!
every time i start illustrator i encounter a new error.
"the preferences file is corrupt and has been reset to the default settings."
"the corrupt file will be backed up as Adobe illustrator Prefs.err"
this problem manifested after i added some more .ai and .ase files to my swatches directory. i do not believe anything else changed.
not sure how to diagnose the problem. is there a debug mode or something? perhaps an offending file.
an option would be to try remove each added swatch file or folder individually, but this would be a very very time consuming process for me.
i use cs4 on a Macbook pro running Snow Leopard - 10.6.2 and would appreciate your advice.
thank you
-ss,
Every time you close down Illy, the current preferences (which may have been changed while you worked on files) are saved, and every time you start up Illy, those preferences will be used.
Usually, preference corruption probably occurs randomly, caused by the OS, but if something in your files change the preferences to something that is not viable you will get an error like that.
You may press Cmd+Option+Shift during startup, which will replace the current preferences with the defaults, and probably you will get rid of the error message. It is probably not a cure, though.
If the error is persistent, the cure would be to get rid of the offending things in the files you work with. -
This occurs on two different machines, one XP and one Win 7. I seems to occur when I close Firefox with a search or load in progress. There are no applications shown in the task manager, so there must be a process still finishing up. What would the process name be? I can wait several minutes usually and the problem goes away and Firefox will restart, but if I knew the process name I could kill it and restart Firefox.
It used 2 happen 2 me a lot, as well, on the old PC. The new one handles it pretty much instantaneously; & also, it won't be under the Applications tab in teh mangler (hehe), but under the Processes 1 probably as firefox.exe

I am trying to access iCloud account. I have reset the password, which works with my laptop. On the Apple website the account details show that the account is verified but on the ipad it continually says "verified" and underneath "Account not verified" Have checked the rescue email address but this says account is verified. What should I do? Apple store said I needed to phone. Phone chat suggested and went through change password etc. but nothing has worked and they have no idea. Help?

# Question
I am using Firefox 3.6.13 and have installed Windows Media Player 1.0.0.8 for Firefox. However, if I attempt to open a file with a .wmv extension it appears to function properly, except, that I cannot "play" the file. What am I doing wrong?You probably have not seen anyone reporting the exact same problem as you. All three crash reports have the same crash signature and as currently ranked 67 it is not the commonest of reasons for a crash.
I hope you enter your email contact information when reporting crashes. I note you see this crash when using videos, others may possibly see this crash in other circumstances.
You have already tried the obvious, attempts at a fix so it is now down to wait and see, maybe developers working on the bug will report something or fix it.
Did you try my suggestion of installing portable ESR ?

Lately, I've been getting a blue screen in the midst of working and have to do a cold reboot to end it. Seems to happen when I'm closing windows or quitting applications. Not always, but sporadically. What causes this? I'm using 10.6.8 on early 2011 MBP. Thanks for any help/advice!
You have 10.6 on that machine, I suggest you stick with it for performance, third party hardware and software reasons as long as possible.
Consider 10.8 (not 10.7) when it's released, because 10.7 and 10.8 will require a new investment in software and newer third party hardware as it requires newer drivers the old machines won't have. (forced upgrade because of software, really nice of them)

Far as your Safari problem do these things until it's resolved:
1: Software Update fully under the Apple menu.
2: Check the status of your plug-ins and update (works for all browsers) also install Firefox and see if your problems continue. You should always have at least two browsers on the machine just in case one fails.

I cannot do anything online because I constantly get the "connection has been reset" message. This has never happened before. I followed instructions on Firefox help page for this message and it only made it worse!
Firefox 2.0.0.20 is the last ever version of Firefox for Win98 / SE / ME.
You can get it from here, but you are better off using K-Meleon (derived from Firefox) or Opera instead an old version of Firefox:
[ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/2.0.0.20/win32/en-US/]
You can try KernelEx to get Firefox 3+ to work, but it would be very slow with an old PC of less than 750Mhz. 3.5 and later supposedly doesn't work.

My wife and I have an iphone each using one apple id. How do we stop phone contacts being deleted from one phone and then find it has been deleted from the other?
Also this works when one of us downloads an app it appears on the other iphoneYou need to use separate iCloud accounts. This will mean that you can both have your own separate contracts and calendars and put an end to them being deleted by each other.
Whether or not you have a separate iTunes account, is up to you. If you have a separate iTunes accounts you will not be able to access the music, books, apps that have been purchased by the other. This may be exactly what you want, but it also means that you both may end up purchasing the same item. -

Hi All,
I am writing the below linq query to fetch the record from the database ,
var individualres = (from c in orgContext.CreateQuery("contact")
join a in orgContext.CreateQuery("annotation")
on c["contactid"] equals a["objectid"]
where (bool)a["isdocument"] == true && a["objectid"] == r.GUID &&
a["filename"] != null
select new
FirstName = c["firstname"],
LastName = c["lastname"],
CreatedDate=a["createdon"],
DocumentBody = (a["documentbody"] == null) ? "" : a["documentbody"],
GUID = c["contactid"],
FileName = a["filename"],
WorkStatus = (c["new_workstatus"] == null) ? "" : c["new_workstatus"],
Rank = (c["new_rank"] == null) ? "" : c["new_rank"],
State = (c["address1_stateorprovince"] == null) ? "" : c["address1_stateorprovince"],
City = (c["address1_city"] == null) ? "" : c["address1_city"]
But it is throwing the error Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.
if this error is related to null values into the columns , then i am handling those by using the
ternary operator.
Can anybody help me out for this issue.
thanks in advance.Hello EmpAnsar,
>>But it is throwing the error Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.
From your LINQ query, it is hard to tell what the caused reason is since we do not have your exact tables and data. My suggestion is that you could narrow this issue by reducing items you want to fetch, for example, you could firstly write a sample query
without where clause and select new syntax as:
var individualres = (from c in orgContext.CreateQuery("contact")
join a in orgContext.CreateQuery("annotation")
on c["contactid"] equals a["objectid"]
select c).ToList();
To check if it would work, if so, you could add these filters and items you want step by step until reproducing this issue, this would help locate the root reason.
Update:
For this exception, i found some related threads which might be helpful to you:

I'm using GarageBand 10.0.1. Do the built-in drum tracks only come in mono format, or is it possible to make them true stereo (i.e. Left and Right channels putting out different signals, to sound like the kit has been panned across the stereo field)?
All the Drum Kits available for GarageBand are mixed in stereo.
Logic provides the same 18 Drum Kits also as "Producer Kits", which are multi-track outputs,. Each Drum Kit Piece (Kick, Snare, HH, etc) and also room mice and overheads are routed to individual channel strips.
Here is a screenshot of one Drum Kit in Logic Pro X with individual Channels Strips. Each Channel Strip can be loaded with individual effects (compressor) and adduced with individual sends, etc.
What that means is that all the Drummers are professionally recorded and sampled with individual mics. The Stereo Drums Kits are just "stereo mix-downs" for easier handling and less CPU demand. I explain all the details about the Drummer ecosystem in my graphically enhanced manual "GarageBand X - How it Works"
Hope that helps

I had my 4 year old grandson on my laptop and now when i open Mozilla i get the message: this page has been blocked due to a violation of terms of use, sorry for the temporary inconvenience.

If the message is from Mozzila, I do not know if the contact email on the [[Terms of Service]] page may be of help. It strikes me as rather odd if someone can accidentally break ToS on either Google or a Mozilla site accidentally, especially a four year old child.
