• Cannot open PDF files in the browser. I tried every fix mentioned and it still does not work!

  I have Windows XP. Using firefox as my browser. All of a sudden, I can't open the PDF files in the browser. I tried all the mentioned patches. Nothing works! Check the configuration of the plugin, checked the settings Adobe Reader.

  Is the problem that Firefox opens a blank tab, or that it requires you to download the file?

  I guess you tried switching spectators between the internal viewer and the Adobe plugin. If this article does not, steps: How to disable the built-in PDF Viewer and use another Viewer. Sometimes behind switching will allow to correct an error in the settings file.

  You can rename or delete the settings file that stores these associations and have Firefox regenerate. If the file is corrupt, this could be the only option that works. Here's how:

  Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using

  Help > troubleshooting information > "view file" button.

  Leave this window open, activate any Firefox window and quit the program (for example, the file menu > exit or Firefox menu > Exit)

  Pause while Firefox finishing his cleaning, then rename the mimeTypes.rdf to something like mimeTypes.old

  Restart Firefox. Your likely PDF preferences will be reset to the internal PDF Viewer, but you can activate the Adobe plugin as described in the above-linked article.

  Any improvement?

• How can I get the airplay icon to appear? Changing the settings of firewall does not work

  How can I get the airplay icon to appear? Changing the settings of firewall does not work

  Hello Drjoe378,

  I understand that you do not see the AirPlay icon in iTunes on your Mac. If you have verified that your firewall is disabled or that the problem occurs regardless of the status of your firewall, there is a little more that can help return your ability to connect to AirPlay devices.

  1. Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes and Apple TV software.
  2. Connect your computer and other devices on the same network Wi - Fi. If you are using Ethernet, connect the two devices on the same router or hub. If you use the Wi - Fi and Ethernet, plug your device AirPlay the same router that your computer uses for Wi - Fi.
  3. Restart your computer, device AirPlay and network router.
  4. Because some Airplay devices include a power switch for AirPlay option, look for the option in the settings and make sure that the feature is enabled. Refer to the user guide of the device for more information.

  Use AirPlay to stream content from iTunes on your computer wireless

  All my best.

  I followed instructions tp uninstall IE 10 and internet now will not work.  How to return to IE 9?

  Hello
  What I summarize your question is: you have installed IE 10 and you want to restore to IE 9.
  Since you are using IE 9 and 10 of IE, I can assume that you use Windows Vista or Windows 7.
  To restore IE 9 return, you must follow these steps:
  1 - click Start  
  2 - Goto Control Panel
  3 - find Windows Update, click
  4 in the lower left corner you can see the updates installed, click
  5 - search for Windows Internet Explorer 10
  6. right-click on it and select Uninstall
  7. you're done here,  a system reboot may be necessary.
  Hope this helps, let me know if the problem persists.

  If this isn't the case, I recommend you contact Apple for assistance.

  Check your hard drive for errors:

  Click Start

  Type: CMD, according to the results, right-click CMD

  Click on "Run as Administrator"

  At the command prompt, type: chkdsk /f /r

  When you restart your system, your computer will be scanned for errors and will try to correct them.
