Why do I now have a Yahoo toolbar after the last update and how do I get rid of it? Also, get rid of the popup asking me if I want to change my homepage?

About a week or so ago, I received the familiar pop-up message asking if I wanted to update Firefox. I said yes but since then I have acquired a Yahoo toolbar (I never use Yahoo but don't know how to get rid of the damn thing). Also I am now getting a pop-up box asking if I want to change my home page. How do I stop this as well?

Tap the bookmarks icon in Safari (looks like an open book), then tap "Favorites".  Edit the second row out of there.

  • Downloaded new FF4.0. Rebooted. Now have disabled yahoo toolbar. went to Ff site and tried to install suggested Yahoo toolbar but FF says I still have FF2.0.0.2. Please help. I need my yahoo TB back!

    Upgrading to FF4.0, and manually rebooting again.
    Window opened and Yahoo toolbar was mostly gone, except for white search box and its search button. Both are currently disabled. All other buttons that were with my Yahoo TB are gone.
    Went to FF website using google search.
    Looked for Yahoo toolbar that worked with FF4. Followed the steps but FF continues to say: "You are currently using Firefox 2.0.0.20". This happened in two places. It is not recognizing that I have upgraded to FF4. How do i fix this?? Thanks so much!

    1.Type about:config into the location bar and press enter .
    2.Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences .
    3.Locate the preference general.useragent.override, right-click on it and choose
    I could not find "general.useragent.override," in the directory.
    The only listings under general.useragent. are general.useragent.compatMode.firefox, general.useragent.extra.asktb,
    general.useragent.extra.microsoftdotnet and general.useragent.locale.
    There is no "general.useragent.override." I have FF 4.0 version.

  • HT4759 Why don't i have an icon in my icloud for itunes and how do i get one?

    Why ndon't I have an icon for itunes in my icloud and how do I get one?

    If you mean iTunes in the Cloud, this is totally separate from your iCloud account.  There isn't an iCloud, but it allows you to download certain previously purchased media from the iTunes and App stores, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519.

    Aren't they in your iTunes library?  If so, sync them back to your phone.  If not, redownload them (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519).

    thanks

    iPhones require a SIM card for activation, regardless of whether it is being used as an iPhone or an iPod.
    Put a SIM in the device for the carrier it is locked to and activate it.  The SIM can then be left it it or removed.

    Here is the thing the actual license for Apple to have a native YouTube app has expired you must understand this more about Apple removing Google from its ecosystem and less about actual licenses.  If Apple was so inclined I am almost certain they could have continued to provide a native YouTube app.
    Do you really think that Apple Maps are "better" for iOS users?  You know that you can set your default search to another provider such as Bing?  Imagine Apple changing its default Safari search to Bing.  You must understand that Google makes more from searches on iOS devices than it does on everyting that is Andriod (source:http://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/google-earns-four-times-more-from-ios-than-a ndroid/).  Apple is slowly and meticulously working on freeing iOS of Google products.
    Of course it is a free market and Apple will most certainly allow Google's apps on their app store. There is an iPhone optimized version of YouTube in the app store.
    Consider using a third party YouTube app called Jasmine.  It doesn't have a lot of bells and whistles but is available for iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad.
    Jasmine - YouTube Client by Morrissey Exchange Pty Ltd
    https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/jasmine-youtube-client/id554937050?mt=8
    I have no connection to this app, just read an article that reviewed it and thought I'd pass it along.

  • I think my battery is fried.  It gets really hot sometimes when I charge it now it won't charge at all.  It froze up after the last update and I can't use it at all.

    My phone froze up after last update and I can't use it at all.  I think the battery is fried as well.  It gets really hot sometimes when I charge it and now it won't charge at all.

    Reset, hold both home and power buttons until the iPhone begins to start, usually takes about 10 seconds of holding both buttons. If still nothing try Reset while on Wall Charger, this can take about 20 seconds of holding both buttons while on Charger. If still nothing and you decide to Restore you iPhone with iTunes on computer, you may need to use DFU Mode Restore. Here are steps: Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB cable. Hold both Home and Power button, after exactly 10 seconds release the Power Button, keep holding the Home button until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, usually about 20 seconds time. If the iPhone screen is black, blank this is DFU Mode. Click the Restore button of iTunes. DFU Mode can be difficult to enter sometimes, just keep trying. DFU Mode is a black, blank screen with iTunes saying Recovery Mode.

  • When is the next update and how many updates have occured thus far

    I have been working with the trial and I do like this program a lot and I am well aware of the "issues" surrounding it
    Since I have the trail, which is 10.01, and updates don't occur with an active trial, have there been any other updates since the softwares initial release?
    Also, has there been any word or mention of the next update?
    Thank you

    10.01 is current.
    "word or mention of updates"
    It's not Apple's policy to discuss or make public update information. If anyone does know they can't say because of the NDA they've signed.

  • I have lost al my passwords after the last update. How do I get them back?

    All my passwords disappeared after the update to FF32. Unfortunately sync no longer supports password synchronisation so it seems that all my passwords are gone.

    Firefox 32 and later builds store the passwords in the logins.json file in the profile folder and no longer use the signons.sqlite file.
    If you still have the signons.sqlite file that was used in Firefox 31 and older then you could try to recover the passwords saved in that file (you will lose passwords saved in Firefox 32).
    You can force Firefox to reimport the passwords from the signons.sqlite file.
    * reset the <b>signon.importedFromSqlite</b> pref on the <b>about:config</b> page to the default value via the right-click context menu
    * delete the <b>logins.json</b> file in the Firefox profile folder with Firefox closed
    When you restart Firefox then you should have the signon.importedFromSqlite pref with the value set to true and you should have the passwords imported in the Password Manager unless there may have been errors.
    You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
    *Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)

  • HT204053 I have a different Apple ID for store purchases and ICloud. Unfortunately my ICloud ID is set to an email I no longer use. I want to change my ICloud ID to match my Store ID but I cannot seem to find the way to do that. How can I update my ICloud

    I am trying to update my Apple ID for my ICloud Account. For some reason, when my IPad updated the OS it put on an old email address and Apple ID to my ICloud account and now I can no longer participate in the ICloud because I cannot remember my password and have no way of retreiving it because my old email account is closed.
    Very frustrating! How can I fix this?
    P

    If you know the answers to your security questions, you should be able to change your password without using email authentication (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HE36).  If you don't, you may be out of luck.

  • Why is iPhone all of a sudden using insane amounts of data, and how do I make it stop? Verizon useless -- laughing all the way to the bank, no doubt.

    Got replacement iPhone from Asurion (%$&@ing rat b@stards that they are). All of a sudden, phone using 1G of data every other day. Verizon is useless and can't help me figure out WHAT is using this data. Roaming is off. No new apps. What could be causing this?

    What do you find when you check Settings > Cellular to see which apps are using all this data?

    I have lost some of my bookshelfs after the last update and cannot create a new one. How can I fix it? I don't have them on my PC so I can't synchronize them. What can I do? Pretty dissapointed right now!

    If the contact were added after the backup was made they will not be in the backup. If your contacts were synced with iCloud they may be there. If so they will apear shortly on your new phone.

  • I have some applications that haven't finished updating and I can't open nor delete them?

    I have some applications that haven't finished updating and I can't open nor delete them?

    Get your iPhone to update only one app at a time as follows:
    Click each application that is updating to get it to a "Paused" state.  Once they are all paused, then do this for one application at a time:
    Click it until is says "Updating".  Let it finish updating and installing.  Then repeat for the next application.
