How can I permanently delete the default bookmark toolbar items (getting started, most recent, etc.)?

I can't seem to permanently delete the default bookmark toolbar items. They show up frequently on start-up, even after manually deleting them in a previous session. I use 3.6 x_32 on Linux (for Flash) and 4.0 RC 1 x_64 (for non-flash) sharing the same profile.
I use the X-marks extension and I thought that was the cause the problem, but the problem keeps happening even after deleting all of the the default items in each version and then overwriting my x-marks server data with a forced upload both times.
I'm guessing that x-marks will be most people's prime suspect. I just want to make sure that firefox isn't recreating the items as a default behavior.
I know it's a minor annoyance, but I keep my bookmarks toolbar pretty full. Thanks.

Does it still happen if you temporarily disable Xmarks?
Doesn't it work if you hide the Bookmarks Toolbar?

How can I permanently enlarge the default size for pop-ups?

I use several sites that employ pop-ups. The default size is too small, so I have to manually enlarge each pop-up. How can I set the default size for pop-ups to a larger size. I don't want them maximized, just larger than the default.

A pop-up should fit normally unless you are zooming images or text or increasing elements otherwise.
Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems.
*<b>View > Zoom > Reset</b> (Ctrl+0 (zero); Cmd+0 on Mac)
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Zoom_text_of_web_pages
If you have increased the minimum font size then try the default setting "none" as a (too) high value can cause issues.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)
Make sure that you allow websites to choose their fonts.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Changing+fonts+and+colors
It is better not to increase the minimum font size, but use an extension to set the default page zoom to prevent issues with overlapping text.

How can you PERMANENTLY change the default Ken Burns effect?

I don't like the Ken Burns effect and want to PERMANENTLY remove it from the default setting for slideshows. I know how to deselect it every time I create a new slideshow, but isn't there a way to change the default setting so the Ken Burns effect is not selected unless I want it?

My old iPhone was hacked into and they were able to retrieve all of my deleted message. How can I permanently delete the messages?

I had even restored my iPhone before this happened and the messages were still retrieved.

I think you have serious issues here. It's not your iPhone only that was hacked but your iCloud and Keychain too.
iCloud hack is where the danger comes from to you.
You need to fix your iCloud issues by changing the password. Delete your whole key chain and generate new passwords using Safari, they are hard to crack.
The weakest link in using key chain is the passcode on your device followed by the password to access key chain. These two basically give access to your data saved in the cloud.
I strongly suggest that you speak to Apple about this, they are helpful and they take security seriously.

I called Apple and spoke with a customer service representative regarding this issue. I was given the two things to try, and if they don't work, I was told I can call back in:
1. Go to iCloud.com and look at the advanced options. Since Photos can be deleted here, the representative thought there may be an option to remove songs here as well.
2. Go into the library that has the songs that were deleted and click Update iTunes match.
I tried #1--this didn't resolve the issue, as there is no option to remove songs this way. I can't try #2 right now since I'm at work, but if anybody else with this issue can try that step it can help us get the ball rolling on it. After I try that, I'll call Apple back to discuss this further.

How can I permanently delete or block the cookie called "Local documents on your computer" ?

Most of the time, I found a cookie in Safari called "Local documents on your computer."
I went to Safari - Preferecnes – Privacy- Remove All website data then check the box Block Cookies from third parties and advertisers.
However, find the cookie within the next few minutes.
How can I permanently delete or block the cookie (Local documents on your computer)?

Hi this is normal. It will not hurt anything. It is just a cookie that a website stored . If you delete it it will come back the next time you visit the website.

How can I permanently delete subfolders in email Trash?

I have been getting duplicate email messages in one of my email folders for several weeks. I think it started when I upgraded to OS X 10.6.6. I have RoadRunner as a mail server and have not had this problem before on either my iMac or a previous PC. I read many many support messages regarding duplicate email messages from this board and tried many of the hopeful fixes but none of them worked on a permanent basis.
I do not have any other electronic machines that hold or try to access my email. I did, however just order a new laptop and would really like to get the duplication problem fixed before I receive the new computer.
I have 2 email addresses on one server (RoadRunner). They each have their own folder in Mail Inbox, one is labeled Personal and the other is labeled Business. I can send and receive email from my Personal address but I can only RECEIVE mail from my Business address. I receive the duplicate messages in my Business Inbox folder.
I have deleted messages only to see them reappear the next time I open the folder. Some of the 'fixes' I tried caused me to have 3 or 4 duplications. I noticed that all the instances of a message and its duplications would go to the Trash folder when I used the delete feature. My Trash Folder also has 2 subfolders, one for Personal and one for Business. I noticed that when I try to drag a deleted message from the Trash/Business folder it would not allow itself to be placed back in the Inbox/Business folder. But when I dragged the deleted message from the main Trash Folder to the Inbox/Business folder it would allow itself to be deposited. So, I deleted the subfolders under the Trash Folder and all seemed to be great. No more duplicated. But - the subfolders keep reappearing when I reopen mail. I have deleted the subfolders each time, but they won't stay deleted. How do I permanently delete the Trash subfolders?

You are seeing an intentional but strange feature of GMail... nothing is ever deleted, and instead remains forever in All Mail. You probably want to just hide All Mail from Mail, so that you don't have to see it and don't have all those messages syncing back to your Mac. See Hiding GMail’s “All Mail” from Apple Mail. There has been one change on GMail since I wrote that, though... you no longer have to go to Labs and turn on Advanced IMAP.

How can I permanently delete tracking cookies?

I was alarmed to read the series in the series in the Wall Street Journal ( www.wsj.com/wtk ) about flash cookies, trackers, and beacons. I had always set my preferences (in Firefox) to not accept cookies, changing that only when I came to a site that required cookies (like Facebook), but then choosing the option to not accept 3rd-party cookies, changing my preferences after the visit, and deleting cookies.
I installed the add-ons suggested by the WSJ and on this website (Adblock Plus, Better Privacy, Ghostery, PrivacyChoice TrackerWater, and Taco. There is nothing in my Library>Preferences>Macromedia file. I visited the Adobe website and followed their instructions to delete flash cookies. Yet I cannot get rid of the cookies!
I tried this experiment: when not connected to the internet, with cookies turned off, I deleted all cookies, closed Firefox, and lo and behold, 150 cookies (yes, I counted them) had re-created themselves!
How can I get rid of them permanently? Please don't give me any pablum about them being harmless, they help to streamline the ads being shown to me, etc. etc. I don't care about that. This is MY computer and I do not want anyone installing anything on it! It irks me that deleting cookies deletes the useful cookies -- cookies that I would chose to keep -- but keeps all these other ones.
Please, if anyone knows, how can I permanently delete these cookies?

Get the Add-on NoScript for Firefox.
http://noscript.net/
In addition, I always empty all cookies after a browsing session or at the end of the day. The worst is I have to log back in to some sites. You can't permanently eliminate the possibility of picking up a tracking cookie, but you can get rid of them if you pick one up. NoScript minimizes the chances of getting one, since you only allow the minimum scripts for a site to function. I suggest you start at the NS site and read about it. There's also a support forum which needs no registration. I won't have a lot of time today to explain much more.
Here what you do to completely eliminate Flash cookies. This works.
+"Delete your ~/Library/Preferences/Macromedia folder so you're starting from a clean, shared-object-free, slate.+
+Next, in your web browser visit http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_man ager07.html and under the Global Privacy Settings, click the button labeled "always deny" then "confirm" to prevent Flash from watching you through your webcam or listening to you over the computer's microphone. Technically speaking this isn't necessary, but it seems like a prudent move if you don't like the idea of web sites accessing these resources. Don't bother changing anything else in the Settings Manager because the other stuff pretty much involves what and how much can get saved on your computer, and we're going to answer those questions entirely different means.+
+Now navigate in the Finder back to your ~/Library/Preferences/Macromedia folder and and recursively lock every file and folder inside it. This should include macromedia.com/support/flashplayer/sys/settings.sol, macromedia.com/support/flashplayer/sys, macromedia.com/support/flashplayer, macromedia.com/support, macromedia.com/#SharedObjects/<random letters and numbers>, macromedia.com/#SharedObjects, and finally the macromedia.com folder itself.+
+That's it!+
+The cool thing about this is that Flash is convinced it can store this crap so everything works, but nothing is actually remembered by Flash. Or at least nothing is remembered between browser sessions. Flash apparently never tells sites attempting to store stuff that, even though storing is enabled, it doesn't actually work and nothing gets stored."+

HT5824 How can you permanently delete books from Ibooks

How can you permanently delete books from IBooks?

You cant permanently delete them, but you can hide them.
Pop into iTunes, and in the iTunes Store under Quick Links along the right hand side, you can see Purchases, and then sign in, look at your books and click on the X in the top left and it will hide them so you dont have to see them.
Hope this helps.

You could also set the default on your entity or viewobject, in the properties of your attribute.

Since you can't delete Apple IDs and having multiple Apple IDs can cause confusion, what you may want to do is rename your existing Apple ID to the new email (desired Apple ID). That would in effect do what you want, get rid of the old and give you the new.

How can I permanently disable the "fn" key?

Hi. My subject says it all. How can I permanently disable the "fn" key?
At first I thought I had a virus or something because when I typed only weird symbols came out. Then I reset the computer. Then I couldn't even log in. I tried Time Machine etc.
Then I realized that the "fn" key wasn't working right. It seems to be working backwards. It acts like it's being pushed when it's not, and when I do push it it acts like it's not being used.
So it's kind of a simple problem but it's really annoying.
Is there a way I can just disable it permanently? Even physical force if necessary. I tried to break it but it wouldn't break. I don't really use the key anyway so it doesn't really matter. I don't want to pay a bunch of money to replace a key I don't even use.
Thanks. I hope someone knows.

That's the best answer. Yeah usually if you press "fn" or "option" you can get it to work for awhile.
Yeah I have considered some kind of external keyboard also. It will make a laptop less laptopish. But it could do the job for awhile.
It's sad because I don't even care about the "fn" or "option" keys.
But anyway it's not catastrophic at least.
And yeah maybe we can get a new computer later or something. I like mine though. It's customized and is how I like it right now.
Anyway thanks for the reply.
