Why do I have grey 'Mac' window bars when a document is floating, and how do I get rid of them?

This is really annoying, as I'm used to working with the new black 'tabbed' look, but I find my PS now looks like this screen grab. How do I switch back to the black tabbed look for floating windows, rather than the Mac traffic lights?

I have Photoshop CC 2014 in Yosemite as well.
If your Interface Preferences have "Open Documents in Tabbed Windows" checkmarked, it should do that without fail unless you uncheck the Application Frame ((under Window menu in PS) in which case documents open in Windows.
Floating document windows will always have the gray bar, no matter the Color Theme you choose in Photoshop unlike Windows 7.
However if you go in Mac System Preference > General and choose "Graphite" under appearance, it will turn off the "traffic light" look and leave you with gray/white window control buttons.
If you minimize Photoshop in Windows, both PS and the Document Window will minimize, but in the Mac version, you can independently minimize the document window and the PS app. As far as I can see, there is nothing malfunctioning. Each OS has its' own way.

I have these black boxes around all the images i add. why are they there and how do i get rid of them?

i have black boxes around all the images i bring into pages. why are they there and how can i get rid of them?

Pages rememebers the last setting you used on images.
So if you had a border on the last image the next one you bring in will have one too.
To change that select:
Inspector > Graphic > Stroke > None
Spend a little time exploring the menus and particularly the Toolbar and Inspectors whcih are in reasonably logical progression from big things down to smaller details and clearly labeled.
It is also possible that you have show Layout on which outlines objects on th screen so you can see what's what. To change that:
Menu > View > Hide Layout

Google changed their menu bar. Firefox hasn't used Google for the default homepage since the Firefox 3.6 versions. Firefox 4+ versions use '''about:home'''.<br />

I updated my iphone yesterday. I have the 4S. I have my daughters and mine contacts now. I don't want hers. How did that happen and how do I get rid of them?

This happens with you are both syncing data such as contacts on your devices with the same iCloud account. This will result in the data being merged and synced back to all connected devices. To correct this you need to have different iCloud accounts on each device.
To do this, on the device that will be changing iCloud accounts go to Settings>iCloud and turn all data that is syncing with iCloud (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off. When prompted choose to keep the data on the iPhone. After everything is turned off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. (This will only delete the account from the phone, not from iCloud, so the other phone won't be effected by this.) Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different ID, then turn data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On. When prompted, choose Merge. This will upload the data to your new account. At this point you will have two separate iCloud accounts on each phone with identical data.
Next, you'll have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and delete the unwanted data (for example, deleting her contacts from your iCloud account and vice versa). These changes will be reflected on each device and things should now be fixed.

I have exclamation marks on my iTunes songs on my computer. How do I get rid of them?

I have iTunes match and it works fine on the iPad however on my computer where they originated from there is an exclamation mark with a circle around it on my songs and it will only play one song and then stops. I can manually double click on each song as to play it but how do I get rid of all those pesky things.?

I'm having a problem very similar to the one herb clark described. It occurred when I upgraded to OSX 10.10. Suddenly have the songs in my itunes library have this **** exclamation point in front of them and they don't play in a playlist. I can play them by simply double-clicking on the song, this will clear the exclamation mark and start playback. I can also clear the mark by selecting the song and choosing "Get Info"—as soon as the info window opens the mark disappears. Once the mark is gone the song then behaves normally and plays in the playlist.
It has nothing to do with deleted files. No files have been deleted. Itunes never asks me to locate files.
I have not synced with any devices. I have never synced itunes.
I doubt it has anything to do with itunes Match because I've never used Match or subscribed to it.
It appears that the only way to fix this is to doubleclick on every song that has an exclamation mark. That would take hours to do.
Any ideas about how to fix this and make the exclamation marks go away?

Why do I have dehighlighted icons on my Ipad and how do I get rid of them?

I now have dehighlighted icons (ones that had been there before but were normal/not dehighlighted).They just seemed to have this change when I powered up my Ipad today. Please help me. Thanks.

Thank you Connecticut (Lizdance40) for responding so very, very fast. Wish I was in the position to help others like that, maybe some day. At least I know now what it might be. Have tapped one of the icons and it is now "waiting". Will wait and see if it changes to a different/normal look and if it does (after updating or restoring) I will do the same to the rest of them. Thanks again!! for the help.

Why are these files showing? and how do i get rid/hide them?

can anyone tell me a fix to hide these greyed/faded out files and folders? they are littered around EVERYWHERE on my mac, even in my external hard drive. Also, why is there a file called .DS_Store on my desktop? i've tried putting it in the trash and emptying it but it just appears again! thanks in advance.

1. Open the AppleScript Editor in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder and run the following:
tell application "Finder" to quit
if (do shell script "defaults read com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles") is "1" then
do shell script "defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles 0"
else
do shell script "defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles 1"
end if
delay 2
tell application "Finder" to run
If you change your mind later, run the script again.
2. To store the metadata associated with items on the desktop.

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...

I have the command, control, and option key symbols that display on my desktop when I tap them on my keyboard. what is this called? and how do you get rid of them from doing this?

Not sure what this is called and I need help to get rid of it.

I already figured it out it was the act that sticky keys was on.

I have 3.5 gigs of "other" what is it and how do i get rid of it?

On my itunes when my iphone is pluged in it says that i have now 3.9 gigs of "other" what is it and how do i get rid of it?

Other is data that does not fit into the rest of the catergories listed on the summary tab. This includes user data and app settings/data.
3.5 GB is a lot... and typically indicates corruption.
You can try a reset of the device and re-syncing, sometime this will clear it up... but typically the resolution is to restore the device from backup first. If that doesn't resolve a restore as new will.
Other should be in the range of 300-800mb.

Why does my iPod Touch have a white screen and how do I get rid of it?

Why does my iPod Touch have a white screen and how do I get rid of it?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I have created a table on pages. Somehow I have set something so a blue dot appears every time I press he space bar. How did I do it? and how do I get rid of it?

two questions-- I have created a table on pages. Somehow every time I press the space bar, I get a blue dot between words--How did I do it? and How do I get rid of it. Also, I created a template on pages--How do I "save as" for a new file using that template?

All you are seeing is the word space (from the spacebar).
Menu > View > Hide Invisibles you had Show Invisibles on.
When you are using a template it should be named "Untitled" and it will ask you to save when you go to close or you simply go to Save under the File menu.
