How can I stop the sweet Firefox blocking plugin Adobe Flashplayer?
I use Windows XP. Firefox keeps blocking of the plug-in asking whether to allow the plugin to run Adobe. How can I get Firefox to stop blocking the flashplayer?
Good news! Adobe released an update yesterday to solve critical problems, he admitted were in the 18.0.0.203 version. You can get 18.0.0.209 on this page:
https://www.Adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html
If you are using Windows, look for the line "browser plugin", and you can use the exe or MSI installer.
If you use Mac, there is only a single download to consider.
If you use Linux, unfortunately, the update isn't out yet but should this week
Although it is rare to have a block on the last available version, no one can promise that this kind of block will never happen. If that happens, if you are not accustomed to using the "Request to activate" feature a plugin, here's what to expect:
When you visit a site that wants to use the Flash, you should see a notification in the address bar icon and one of the following: a link in a black rectangle in the page or an information bar slides between the toolbar and in the page area.
If you see a good reason to use Flash, and the site looks trustworthy, you can go ahead and click on the Lego-like icon in the address bar to allow Flash. You can trust the site for the time being or permanently.
But some pages use Flash only for tracking or play ads, so if you do not see an immediate need for Flash, feel free to ignore the notification! It will just sit there in case you later want.

Whenever I launch Firefox 20 Mac OS X 10.7.5, I get the warning message by clicking "" Firefox"is an application downloaded from the Internet. Are you sure you want to open it? ». How can I stop this? There are displays on internet and previous assignments on this resolution by using Terminal commands for OS X 10.5.x & 10.6.x, but these commands do NOT work in 10.7.x or 10.8.x. This seems to be a problem of Firefox ONLY, and resolve by disabling the recommended world of security features to OS X, as before in a previously closed thread appears as a solution really BAD. Is there a "Firefox" solution only, or I will have to just to stop using Firefox?
Make sure that Firefox is installed correctly.
Open the Firefox disk image (DMG) file and drag the Firefox program in the folder of the application on your hard drive.
You should not double-click the Firefox application to run from the disk image and drag it out of the DMG file instead. -

Firefox has an option to set the current tabs as home pages. Maybe 2 months ago, you used this option.
Use the restore default option for the home page.
- See How to set the home page_restore-the-by default-homepage
- Also take note of the homepage with pipe character opens additional to the startup of Firefox tabs
If it works, you can then reset your home page to the one you want. Note the default homepage uses the search engine that you have defined in the search bar or the search engine by default for your regional/version settings. So if you are in the United Kingdom you may well have Google as search engine, while in the USA, it is likely to be Yahoo. You can easily change the engine used, see search

How can I stop the last post showing when I want to send this person a new Imessage. I don't want an old conversation appears constantly when I am a Messenger contact. I have an Iphone 5s
I don't know, but let me see if I understand what you're asking. You do not want to see the thread you have with a particular contact when you go to send them another message? The only way to do this is to remove the previous message thread. If you send a message to someone that you already have a thread of conversation with, it will continue to post in this thread. There is no such thing as having multiple threads with the same person. All conversations with the same person would remain in the same thread, unless you remove the previous discussions. If you delete your previous conversation, when you go to start a new conversation, he won't have any of the other answers.
