The bookmarks menu is next to the screen when I open Mozilla Firefox and I want to get rid of it.

When I was using the computer a couple of days ago, I pushed some random keys on accident on a list of all my bookmarks showed up next to the screen. I would like to get rid of it but cannot figure out how.

You can open the <b>about:config</b> page via the location bar and do a search for <i>jzip</i> via the Filter at the top of the about:config page.<br />
You can reset all <i>jzip</i> related prefs that appear bold (user set) via the right-click context menu to their default values.
To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />
*Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
*Preferences that have been modified show as bold (user set).
*Preferences can be reset to the default or changed via the right-click context menu.

  • I opened my brand new MacBook Pro the other day and noticed a straight green line from top to bottom near the center of the screen. What is it from and how do I get rid of it????

    I am having a problem with my brand new MacBook Pro. After opening my laptop the other day I noticed a straight green line from top to bottom near the center of the screen. What is this from and how do I get rid of it? It is most annoying. Please Help!

    "What is this from and how do I get rid of it?"
    Such symptoms bode serious hardware issues and you shouldn't think about fixing it yourself when you are still in waranty. Get to an Apple Store, like the other poster suggests.

  • My computer crashed, so I lost all of the tabs I had open in Firefox, and I want them all back.

    My computer crashed, and I lost all of the tabs I had open in Firefox. When I re-started Firefox, it didn't ask me about starting a new session or restoring the old one. How can I get back the tabs I had open?

    I would try calling the support line and pleading your case, as your movies have gone the same place everything else on your computer did when it 'crashed' - the bit bucket.  That's why iTunes has repeated warnings and reminders about backing up your purchases, it's why there is backup software built in to MacOS, and it's why everyone says to back up your computer.  The stuff on there is both valuable and fragile, and it only takes a $70 external drive and a few minutes every once in a while to make sure it's all safe.
    For the record, it's not "because of Apple" that you can't re-download your movies, it's the studios and their contracts that prevent that.

  • Updated to 4 a while ago, but the last versin of 3 is lingering and reappears, want to get rid of it, as well as disk images and other clutter that usually goes away after an update. Any ideas?

    really two things: one: the last version of FF 3 keeps reappearing when, for example, links in emails require opening the browser. Example: an email from netflix with a link to the site which I clicked on to update some info. Instead of going to/thru the current browser FF4, the previous version appears---more accurately the "firefox updated" page for 3.16 or whatever it was. Why is this still there? Why is there more than one copy there in the first place, after updating?
    also, related perhaps, why does the FF4 disk image and application folder always appear when I open FF4. Usually they go away after the update and first restart, but now they appear every time I open the browser? I have snow leopard 10.6.7 if that tell u anything

    Only if you had previously installed an app that would periodically email you its location. Not that the iPod has to br on and connected to the internet.

  • When I use Pages to create my newsletter, I get a small graphic in the header when I insert a page and I can't get rid of it.

    I use Pages to create the newsletter for a club that I belong to.  Just lately (within the last week) when I go to insert a page, I find a little graphic of a union jack in the header on the left side.  No matter what I do, I can not remove it!  Anyone else have this problem?

    You merge personalised details from either a Numbers spreadsheet set up correctly for the address fields or from your *Address Book*, where you can create a Group with your subscribers in it. When you drag a Group onto your Pages layout it generates as many copies as there are people in your Group.
    They will however all be in the same document, unless you manually drag each VCard individually to your layout and save that out to each name.
    You will then need to print each person's newsletter to a .pdf to insert into email.
    None of this is automated like in MsOffice. It would be best to look for a dedicated email distribution program at:

  • I have Fox, CNN, and BBC always open on my screen using AOL within Firefox. I want to get rid of AOL. What can I do to have the same screen (yes, bookmarks are on the left.

    I want to have several web sites open on my screen at the same time, in "boxes" showing the headlines, like I now have on my AOL screen.
    AOL is not working right, and I want to get rid of it.
    Thanks for your help

    Firefox 4+ versions use a new build-in home page named <b>about:home</b> with a Google search bar on it (no internet access needed to load that page).<br />
    That about:home page only shows some snippets and has a button to restore the previous session if applicable.
    If you want a home page without the Restore Previous Session button and the snippets then set another page as the home page like www.google.com used in Firefox 3 versions.
    You may be seeing a similar ad on the Google site to install Google Chrome.<br />
    In that case use the close X on that ad to close that pop-up and it should stay away unless local storage gets cleared.

    My welcome screen used to have just my name and an icon.  Now it has my name on one side and guest user on the other. where did it come from and how do I get rid of it?

    Either you enabled the guest user, or you enabled Find My Mac, which requires there to be an active guest account for a thief to log into, so that they'll connect to the internet and allow you to locate it.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).
    '''If Firefox is open,''' you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
    * Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    '''If Firefox is not running,''' you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".
    ;[[Image:SafeMode-Fx35]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps in the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.

  • Where did the iPhoto 10 iCloud Photostream come from and how do I get rid of it?

    I just updated my MacBook Air to mavericks.  I have an iPad and iphone as well just updated to ios7.  My Mac updated iPhoto as well.  Now when I opened iPhoto I got my flickr and Facebook integrated folders in the left pane plus an iCloud photostream.
    I didn't have that before and it has 287 pictures pulled from many devices but I didn't set that up.  I only had/have a private photostream with a particular name and about 10 pics in it.  this new one is just called iCloud photostream and it has 287 pics of which some I know I took with my iPad and others with my iphone.  I of course sync both devices with my Mac so this pics are in my iPhoto library as well.

  • When I open on Mozilla Firefox, several identical items open on bar at bottom of page, when only one is needed, and I can't get rid of them apart from closing the whole lot.

    Different tabs used to appear at the top of the page (Yahoo), which I could easily close. This has stopped. When I click on Mozilla Firefox on my desktop, about 6 little boxes appear at the bottom of my page, at least two of them being mozilla, and I can't get rid of them except by closing down the internet. If I go through Talk Talk, (a second email address) and get to Yahoo this way, this doesn't happen, but I always prefer to use Mozilla Firefox.

    hello, can you try to replicate this behaviour when you launch firefox in safe mode once? if not, maybe an addon is interfering here...
