I deleted my Sync account, but when I open Firefox the Sync tab still opens. How do I get rid of this?

Whenever I launch Firefox the tab with the name "Your First Sync" still opens even though I've already deleted my Sync account. I do not want this tab to open anymore, it's actually very annoying. What can I do?

You can check for problems with preferences and try to rename or delete the prefs.js file and possible numbered prefs-##.js files and a possible user.js file to reset all prefs to the default values.

  • Photos sync OK, but when edited in iPhoto,the original photos still appear.

    Photos sync fine to iPhone. However, if I edit (crop) one of these photos in iPhoto, the unedited version still appears on the phone after resyncing. I have tried unchecking the box next to the photo album, then syncing and pulling it completely off the phone. Then I recheck the box and sync the photos back to the phone. The old, unedited versions of the photos still appear on the phone. What to do?? Thanks for your help!!

    I am exporting as a JPG. I think I figured out the problem. In the old iPhoto I could export from the Edit menu. On this new version, I have click on the Photos button and go back to the screen that shows the whole event and export from there.
    It's a pain and much less efficient but it seems to be working.

  • Me and my mom share the same apple account but I get all the apps she downloads..how do i get rid of this?

    Me and my mom use the same apple account for our iphones but everytime she downloads an app it gets downloaded to my phone how do i stop that?

    Start iTunes on your PC.  If your iPhone doesn't appear under devices, connect your iPhone to the PC using the USB cable.  Click on the name of your iPhone under devices.  Click on the Apps tab at the top of the screen.  Scroll down a bit and uncheck the box next to "Automatically sync new apps".  Click the Apply button at the bottom of the screen.  If the sync process doesn't automatically start, manually initiate a sync.

  • Why when I close a tab with CTRL + W the tab close but when I reinitializing Firefox the closed tab appear in the tab bar (or tab zone)

  • When I open up a new mail in Yahoo! Mail, email addresses from previous mails stay on screen and block the "copy to" bar. How do I get rid of this?

    When you are typing the addresses into a Yahoo! Mail, the browser helps you by suggesting people from your address book in a drop down box.
    But when I've finsihed that mail and open up a new one, old addresses remain on screen and block the "copy to" box. You can't click on them or zap them, they are just fixed on screen.
    Have had this probelm for a long time, through many Firefox updates and also having moved to a new Mac.

    Reset it by holding the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then release.

    If you are using Firefox to access your mail, you are using "web-mail". You need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.

  • In Mail, one mailbox for Recovered Message (AOL) keeps showing 1 very large message that I cannot delete. How can I get rid of this recurring problem, please?

    In Mail on iMac, successfully running OS X Lion, one mailbox on My Mac for "Recovered Messages (from AOL)" keeps showing 1 very large message (more than 20 Mb) that I just cannot seem to delete. Each time I go into my In Box, the "loading" symbol spins and the message appears in the "Recovered Messages" mailbox. How can I get rid of this recurrent file, please?
    At the same time, I'm not receviving any new mails in my In Box, although, if I look at the same account on my MacBook Pro, I can indeed see the incoming mails (but on that machine I do not have the "recovery" problem).
    The help of a clear-thinking Apple fan would be greatly appreciated.
    Many thanks.
    From Ian in Paris, France

    I worked it out.
    Unhide your hidden files ( I used a widget from http://www.apple.com/downloads/dashboard/developer/hiddenfiles.html)
    Go to your HD.
    Go to Users.
    Go to your House (home)
    there should be a hidden Library folder there (it will be transparent)
    Go to Mail in this folder
    The next folder ( for me ) is V2
    Click on that and the next one will be a whole list of your mail servers, and one folder called Mailboxes
    Click on that and there should be a folder called recovered messages (server) . mbox
    Click on that there a random numbered/lettered folder -> data
    In that data folder is a list of random numbered folders (i.e a folder called 2, one called 9 etc) and in EACH of these, another numbered folder, and then a folder called messages.
    In the messages folder delete all of the ebmx (I think that's what they were from memory, sorry I forgot as I already deleted my trash after my golden moment).
    This was GOLDEN for me. Reason being, when I went to delete my "recovered file" in mail, it would give me an error message " cannot delete 2500 files". I knew it was only 1 file so this was weird. Why 2500 files? Because if you click on the ebmx files like I did, hey presto, it turned out that they were ALL THE SAME MESSAGE = 2500 times. In each of those folders in the random numbers, in their related message folder.
    Now remember - DONT delete the folder, make sure you have gone to the message folder, found all those pesky ebmx files and deleted THOSE, not the folder.
    It worked for me. No restarting or anything. And recovered file. GONE.
    Started receiving and syncing mail again. Woohoo.
    Best wishes.

  • I'm trying to set up a sync account but when I get to the window with the "Create a new account" and "Connect" nothing happens when I push either of the buttons.

  • PH2668 I have delete some contact that i dont need anymore. but when i send a text they are still there. how do i delete them

    I have delete contact out of my phone. but when i send a text they are still there. how do i delete them

    I'm a bit confused by your post.
    When you delete a contact, I assume it is no longer listed in the Contacts app, right?
    When a send a text, what exactly do you mean "they are still there"?  Can you then go back into contacts and find the contact listed again? 
    Are you syncing contacts via icloud to several devices that you own?

  • My friend gave me ipod touch with all his accounts, i created new accounts but when i went on the appstore and tried to update apps installed by him,i was asked his account's password! i dont know his password.how can i use my account to update apps?

    my friend gave me ipod touch with all his accounts, i created new accounts but when i went on the appstore and tried to update apps installed by him,i was asked his account's password! i dont know his password.how can i use my account to update apps?

    You can't.  Apps and really all content purchased/downloaded through one Apple ID is forever tied to that Apple ID.  In the case of Apps they will always request that Apple ID to update as they are licensed to that Apple ID.
    In reality, the Apps were licensed to that Apple ID by the developer.  And cannot simply be given away to you for you to use.
    He should have wiped the iPod clean so you could set it up for your use without any of his accounts or purchased content as you are not really licensed to any of those Apps.
    Your friend should have followed this support document before giving the iPod to you:

  • Messages icon indicates that there is an unopened message but when i go into it the message is blank and no option to delete it. Any ideas how i can get rid of this and stop it from opening up in the blank message each time i open my messages?

    The message icon on my iphone indicates that there is an unopened text message, but when i go into it, it just opens up a blank message, and there is no option to delete it. Any suggestions how i can get rid of this message, and prevent my phone from always opening up in the blank message whenever i go into my messages, rather than just opening as my inbox?
    Many thanks

    Hard restart..  While the phone is powered in, hold the power and home button.   Hold them down and keep them held down.  the phone will eventually shut itself off and reopen.  keep held down till you see the appl elogo, then release.  This will not delete anything off your phone, it will just force all apps to stop their current process.  If you just turn the phone on and off, it will just pick up where it left off.  Good luck

  • I am trying to sync a playlist to my Nano,  but when I click on the Music tab at the top, it will not allow me to select the option Selected Playlist, Artists, etc.  I cannot un-check the Entire Music library option and check the Selected Artist - on

    I am trying to sync a playlist to my Nano,  but when I click on the Music tab at the top,
    it will not allow me to select the option Selected Playlist, Artists, etc.  I cannot un-check the Entire Music library
    option and check the Selected Artist … one.
    I have changed the Sync option to Manually sync, but that does not help.
    How can I change this to the second option?
    Thanks.

    There is a checkbox above those two options for how to sync.  It says Sync Music; it enables automatic syncing.  That box needs to be checked before you can select from the two options for how automatic syncing is performed.
    NOTE:  If the iPod is current set up to Manually manage music [and videos], checking that Sync Music box replaces its current content with content from your iTunes library, based on how automatic syncing is set up on that screen.
    So, if your goal is to add ONE playlist to an iPod that is managed manually, you do not want to do this because iTunes will erase the iPod's current content and replace it with just that ONE selected playlist (and whatever else you select on that Music settings screen).
    Instead, if the iPod currently uses the manual setting, you need to add playlists manually to the iPod (not use the automatic syncing setting).  Please post back with more details about your situation.

  • I need to free up storage on my iPhone 4s to do an update.  I have turned off my photo stream, but when I go into Usage Settings, it says that photo stream is using 3.7gb of space.  How do I get rid of this?

    iCloud is not designed to "store" photos (as in long term storage).  iCloud can be used to sync photos from one device to another (photo stream) and to store a backup of the camera roll.  But that's pretty much it.
    Camera roll is the group of all photos taken by the device (but not other photos synced to the device from another source).  Your extra storage on icloud will do you no good.  The recommended way of storing photos on a device is to sync them to a computer.
    So, your questions..
    1) You don't/can't
    2) No, because of 1.
    3) On a computer, deleting large groups of photos is relatively painless.  not so on a device.
    4) You can't access photos on iCloud because they can't be store in icloud.  You can't view/access photos in a backup on icloud unless you restore a backup to a device.
