Yahoo keeps hogging my firefox 5. i had version 4 down to a tee. i am in my 70,s and do not have the go to get to understand this version. now i cannot uninstall it. why in vista

my home page keeps reverting to yahoo browser.
also lost the input line on the homepage. i.e. nowhere to input unless i return to the home page.
no return arrow! to return to my previous site or page.
just a shambles.

1. You are using the latest version which is Firefox 9.0.1
From your description it sounds as if you may still have the old http://www.google.com/firefox Firefox start page hosted by Google as your homepage. This old default homepage is no longer used as '''about:home''' has been in use since Firefox 4.0
Either ignore the message, change homepage to '''about:home''', change it to another page or leave blank.

I have just over 100gig of music in my iTunes library plus what ever else I add in the future. Because of the amount I had to save my music library on an external drive as my laptop did not have the memory to hold it all. I want to back up my iTunes library and save it on a different external drive, one I store all my back ups on. Is this possible? If so how can I do it?

To import music into your iTunes library on the computer go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Add items to iTunes and follow the instructions
Delete the "songs" that do not play in your iTunes library and reimport them.

I lost all of my calender info and did not have the cloud activated. Any ideas on why that happened? Any idea if I can get that back?

I lost all of my calender info and did not have the cloud activated. Any ideas on why that happened? Any idea if I can get that back?

Not sure why this happened, but are you syncing calendar events direct with a supported calendar app on your computer?
If not, calendar events are included with your iPhone's backup which is updated by iTunes as the first step during the iTunes sync process. If you haven't synced your iPhone with iTunes since this data went missing, you can try restoring your iPhone with iTunes from your iPhone's backup. Do not sync with iTunes before doing so, and do not update your iPhone's backup before doing so when prompted.

Firefox 4 does not work with Pogo games at all!!! Plus do not like the layout at all either. This version really sucks!

Firefox 4 does not work on any Pogo games, neither did the latest version of 3.6.14 and since downloading the beta version of 4 I've had nothing but troubles and pages either not loading or taking forever to load. I do not like this version at all.

After trying everything else under the sun, I finally figured out that the problem was with the Adblock Plus program. Some of my games were not loading at Pogo.com, like Boggle, even though I made sure to clear all the caches and made sure my pop-up blocker wasn't on, the games still wouldn't work. Then I read something about Adblock Plus could be blocking some applets causing some games not to load properly and that's exactly what the problem was. The Adblock Plus preferences are found under the Tools button.I could've just disabled the Adblock Plus, but that made me a little nervous, so I just unblocked the items that were for the specific game that wouldn't load. To do that, I went to that particular game page where the room choices are. Not sure if you have to have Adblock Plus opened or not, but I did in a seperate tab. Then I hit cntrl + shift + V and it opened up the items that were blocked on Adblock Plus. The items in red are the items that are blocked. I just clicked on those to unblock them and the game loaded like a charm. Hope this info helps.

I had just got my ipod back the newest generation and i disabled it because i haven't had it in awhile. I also do not have the primary computer i synced it on so now i cant get on at all. I don't have much money to go to the professionals. What to do?

I just got my iPod back it about a week ago. It's been about 5 months? I don't have the computer I first synced it on due to the fact the whole thing just broke on me. So I can't restore it that way. On top of that I don't remember any type of passcode/word I had it's just been awhile. I don't have much money to go to Apple if they do charge me to reset it...really I don't have money at all to pay for anything like that. Is there any other way I could reset the whole iPod and start over? Can anyone help me?

Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:

To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

I have been attempting to downloads updates to Firefox, and with every attempt the furthest I get is "connecting to update server". Cannot get past that to the actual download.

I get info from Firefox that updates are available, or I go their website to get the latest updates. When the process starts, I get to a screen that says that I am connecting to the server. Nothing ever gets beyond this screen.

ive tried to update always a problem

Have you tried to update that Ubuntu build of Firefox thru the Ubuntu Program Repository?
Another question - how old is your Ubuntu operating system?
You may need to update your operating system to be able to install the latest version of Firefox.
http://ubuntuforums.org/
You may want to check with Ubuntu Support to find out '''if''' your operating system can handle newer versions of Firefox.
You don't have a Mozilla built version of Firefox installed.

I have had my ipod for about 3 years and do not have the computer my music was saved on, now its only on my ipod. I got a new computer, is there any way to transfer my music from my ipod to my itunes?

see question

So what would happen if you lost your iPod or it was stolen? Answer, all your music would be gone.
The iPod is not a storage device.
Do you have a backup of your media from your old computer? If so, copy all your media from that backup to your new computer.
Otherwise, try searching the forums for an answer to your question. This EXACT same question is asked and answered many times every day.

i cannot get my exchange mail on my iphone 4s anymore. I have been to the genious br 4 times and most recently they gave me anew phone but that still did not fix it. I have checked everyhting out with the servers but the phone updates from the server for contatcs and calendar but not mail. it is not the server. and other staff who work for me have the same phones and connect with the same server and do not have the proble.
Help - how does this get fixed?

Did you restore the new iPhone from backup?
Did you tried without restoring from backup?
Did you tried to delete and re-add the account?

I can not download newer themes. It continues to say So and so could not be installed because Firefox does not have the needed files. Also.. For the newer version, where is the tools option?

I am trying to download a new theme. Lava theme. However, it will not let me download that or any other theme for that matter.
It continues to say, So and so could not be installed because Firefox does not have the needed files. What does this mean?
Also, on the newer version.. I can not find the tools option..

The Firefox versions which come with many Linux distros have the default Mozilla Firefox updater disabled and use the distros built-in updater.

Firefox would not load Yahoo home page properly, checked add ons and plugins-no problem. So unistalled. When reinstalling, went through until the end, then I get:

I uninstalled Firefox and not it will not install for me. I get a error that says, The item referred to by this shortcut cannot be accessed. You may not have the appropriate permissions. What can I do?

Here is a pic.

When I tried to do the update it caused an error. So I had to uninstall itunes and now it won't let me reinstall it. Keeps saying something about I do not have the authority to do it.

I got this update message when I opened my itunes. So I said yes and let it update. But then I got this error message and now I can't get it to reinstall. I am the owner of this pc and have been working with Itunes forever. But it keeps telling me that I do not have the right authority to install itunes. This really stinks since all my music for my i-pod is on Itunes. Is there anyone out there who can help me with this?

Me too, kept saying a certain file was missing. Don't understand why a file would be missing, all I did was unintall itunes so I could reinstall it. Makes no sense to me.

When I try to open iTunes, I get this error message: Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item. I get a different error message if I try to uninstall it.

When I try to open iTunes, I get this error message: "Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item." I've been able to uninstall all Apple products except iTunes as I get this error message: "The Installer has insufficent privileges to modify this file: C:\Program Files\i Tunes\Acknowledgments.rtf." I've had the iTunes on my laptop for a year and a half with no problems until now.

Any suggestions please?
