• My profiles of camera under camera calibration (standard, landscape, etc.) are missing since I updated to 5.6. I have a canon 6 d and my computer is a mac. How can I get these back profile?

  My camera profiles (standard, landscape, etc.) are missing (under calibration of the camera) as I've updated to 5.6. I have a canon 6 d and my computer is a mac. How can I return this profile?

  If you actually see raw files and not JPEGs, then I suggest that you try to reinstall Lightroom 5.6. If you look at the JPEG images then all you will see is "incorporated". I apologize if you already know that.

• Thunderbird has started recently popping up big yellow 'notes' if I spend too long anywhere on the screen. How can I stop?

  There was a recent update, and now when my cursor rests almost anywhere on the Thunderbird window, big yellow notes pop up, describing everything that I'm hovering above. I want to disable this feature.

  I wish I could get a capture screen, but every time I try, the pop up disappears.

  I use a Mac and the 24.6.0 version

  Are you sure that you do not have an add-on you do this? I'm running worm. 24.6 on a PC and I've never seen that happen.

• "ReferenceError: prepareFFB is not defined" I started to have this JavaScript error recently, every time I start Firefox. I would like to stop this error

  I get the following JavaScript error every time I start Firefox:

  ReferenceError: prepareFFB is not defined.
  

  Hello, this sounds like it is probably caused by an add-on. you have any extension/theme installed, you can connect the "FFB"? Otherwise try to disable everything in firefox > addons > extensions & re-enable one by one to see which one might be causing the error message.

• pop ups continue to add to update video player and they keep opening keep tabs. How can I stop it?

  New tabs keep open asking me to update my video player

  If the new tabs are relentless, you may need to restart Firefox Safe mode to get little peace. It is a standard diagnostic tool to disable some advanced features of Firefox and extensions. More info: questions to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode.

  You can restart Firefox in Mode safe mode using either:

  • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > restart with disabled modules
  • Help menu > restart with disabled modules

  Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still works

  After stops in Firefox, a small dialog box should appear. Click on 'Start mode safe' (not reset).

  Any difference?

• Download junk in the background every time that I run Firefox (and I do not have installed AVG)

  I am aware of this: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/997796 - but I haven't installed AVG. Every time I run Firefox, even in an empty tab page, a few seconds later my bandwidth starts used. I got Cucusoft Net installed guard and TCPEye, and both show that Firefox is connected to the internet and download - even if I have not loaded any page, there's always on 'new tab '...

  I too FDM, but this happens with or without its execution (ditto with my XAMMP localhost installation.)

  I have disabled all add-ons, and run Firefox in safe mode, still the same thing happens: when I start a new tab, my bandwidth is murdered (parenthesis: my normal surfing via Telkom Mobile internet is sloooow between 60 Kbps and 250 Kbps if I'm lucky, but the download of this background is off-the-charts more than 1 200 Kbps and a few seconds) (, I lost more than 20 MB of mobile internet really really expensive, I just can't afford to waste, that's why I have all these monitors TCP and network graphics running all the time.)

  I also ran a Kaspersky rootkit revealer and reported no threat. I have ZoneAlarm antivirus and firewall that does report also no infection (ditto ClamWin)

  I found the problem... it's Firefox.

  How bloody rude of Firefox... I put my browsers NOT auto-Update (because my bandwidth is so bloody expensive) but you choose to override my settings and auto-update anyway... WITHOUT MY CONSENT.

  How bloody rude.

  There's a reason why we put 'no' to the updates, and I expect that respect you this shit.

• I want to sell my files mwv that I created... How can I stop people to cope with my wmv files and I can sell my free mwv files or do I have to pay microsoft a fee/charge?

  and then I sell my files wmv on CD/dvd-if I do this do I have to pay Microsoft a fee/charge?

  I created a powerpoint document and converted a video (wmv file)
  How can I stop people copying my (video) wmv file?

  No, you do not have to pay taxes or royalties to Microsoft for what you do... If it's just to play back on a computer using Windows Media Player or other software.

  You can't stop people from copying your videos... There is a software that can rip the copies of it while playing on a computer, and my camcorder can get a copy while on a tripod, aimed at a computer screen.

• When I start my system, some notifications invites to the top of their own and I still see the desktop.ini file in my documents/files please what this means?

  Every time I start my system, the Lync appears, a modem exe shortcut. files also appears, how can I stop this?

  I want to know the meaning of desktop.ini, I remove cause it's to show in most of my documents?

  Your thread was started successfully in the forum comments, so I moved it to the windows 'Repair and recovery' forum where is is more on the subject.  You must return to your topic and we tell which version of Windows you are using.

  Look in your startup folder to see if you see Lync and modem.exe shortcuts in this folder.  If so, remove them and you should no longer see these pop-ups when you connect.

  You can get rid of him, but it can return.  Desktop.ini is usually a file hidden, so you must have the display of hidden files and folders active if you do not see it.  Desktop.ini is a file that is present in many files and it is used by the process to "customize the folder.  It allows you to specify multiple behaviors to a folder and what desired icon displayed for a folder.  See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/cc144102(v=vs.85).aspx for a more in-depth explanation of the desktop.ini file.  For certain folders such as My Documents, you should probably leave it alone.  It won't hurt anything especially if you do remove it, but the folder will then behave like any other folder, you can create.

  Sorry, but you can't activate an iPhone without a SIM card installed. It is simply not possible to do.
