Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer. 
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. 
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

How can I get rid of an advertisement that pops up whenever I use Google?

Settings
safari
Turn on blocking popups
if that doesn't help, in Safari, throw away your history from the days since you had the issue. that may get rid of it. If it doesn't you may need to throw away your cookies (which isnt' any fun because it'll sign you out of any site you regularly sign into)

I use iPhone 5s and iPad Air to take photos. They download automatically to my iMac. However, I often get dups, triplicates or more on the iMac. How can I stop this and how can I get rid of the extras that are already there?

Try upgrading your Mac to the newest version of OS X Mavericks, and try upgrading your iPhone and iPad to the newest version of iOS 7.
OS X Mavericks may not be in the Mac App Store by now, but you can find the newest version of Mavericks here at download.com: http://download.cnet.com/Apple-Mac-OS-X-Mavericks/3000-18513_4-76018588.html. Note: Download.com it a safe website to download free software.

How do I get rid of the update request on screen when I am running version 21

How do I get rid of the request to update my version of Firefox below my search request on the front page when I have already updated to Firefox version 21. My search engine is http://www.google.co.uk/firefox
Thanks for any help.

Try to use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.
*https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
Current Firefox versions use the default search engine (pref: browser.search.defaultenginename) to set the search engine that is used on the about:home page.
Check the browser.search.defaultenginename pref on the about:config page and make sure that it is set to the default value Google.
*browser.search.defaultenginename
Currently selected search engine:
*browser.search.selectedEngine

How do I get rid of the gradient that appears on both my home and lock screen?

Hello, I'm curious as to if there's an option for being able to get rid of the gradient that shows up on my wallpapers whenever I set it/unlock my phone.
If possible, can it be made customizable? Like, to be able to have the option of not having one at all, and what color we'd like the digits (on our clock) to be? This seems more like a suggestion rather than something I'm actually seeking help for, but if possible, can this problem be solved? I (and many others) are not comfortable with the dark hue in order for the time to be visible. Can the place of the time be customizable as well? (agh I'm sorry for acting kind of greedy but it seems like much of a problem.)

How do I get rid of the "personas" that keep coming up each time I open a tab

I have downloaded the persona I want. Every time I open a new tab I keep getting various "persona" things coming up time that fill the whole page. How do I get rid of this?

A new tab opens by default as a blank tab (about:blank).
If that isn't the case then an extension has changed that behavior.

How to get rid of the properties tab popping out when I create a new shape?

Hi! I am having a bit of trouble getting rid of the properties tab that pops out everytime I create a new shape in Photoshop CC.
Are there some settings to stop this from happening? I have my space strictly organized, as most of you probably, and I need to close it each time I create new shape... so it's frustrating.
Thank you!

After you draw out a shape, then go to the Properties panel fly-out menu and uncheck Show on Shape Creation

How can I get rid of the music that plays when people call me?

I get complaints about the music that plays when people call me. They expect a tone that indicates a ringing phone and get frustrated with the music.
How do i change from the automatic music to a ring tone? Thanks-

I read this OP's post better then I did that other one from this morning.
I am not crazy about those that have ringback tones on their phones. It is a good thing that no one I call has one any more.

How do I get rid of the spinner that appears on the left side on the tabs?

(Firefox 25.0.1, Windows 8)
There's a little green spinner that appears to the left of "Connecting..." on the tabs while loading a page. Any way to get rid of it? It's been quite annoying me for a while.

You can manually create/edit the userChrome.css file. Here's how.
(1) Find (or create) the chrome folder. This is a folder in your currently active Firefox settings folder, also known as your Firefox profile folder.
* Open the your profile folder using: Help > Troubleshooting Information
** Windows: Click the "Show Folder" button
** Mac: Click the "Show in Finder" button
* Check for a chrome folder.
** If it exists: double-click it to open it.
** If it does not exist: create a chrome folder, then double-click it to open it.
(2) Create or Edit a userChrome.css file by adding your style rule.
* Check for a userChrome.css file in the chrome folder.
** If it exists: open it in a text editor. Check that it has this first line: @namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul); Then add the following lines and save the file: .tab-throbber { display: none !important }  
** If it does not exist: create a new text file named userChrome.css. (In Windows, right-click and choose New > Text Document and change the name to userChrome.css.) Then see the previous step for what to place in the file.
The rule change should take effect the next time you start Firefox.
Note: I find it easier to use the Stylish extension, but if you don't want yet another extension, then userChrome.css makes the most sense.
