A black box keeps popping up on my screen with a voice that describes what I'm a doing. How do I get rid of it? I have no idea how it got here.

BSD
I've never had this before and I don't know how it happened.
Everywhere I type there is a moving black text box. As well on the computer screen there is a black box with text that describes exactly what i am doing and a voice that reads it out.
Extremely annoying. How do I get rid of it???

Turn off VoiceOver in the Universal Access or Accessibility pane of System Preferences.

Is it visible at all? If so, drag it to a new location, hit the "Done" button to close, close your document and launch InDesign again. By the way, are you on OSX or Windows? I'm on OSX and that works for me. My InDesign version is CS6. Hope this helps.

I have a box keep popping up saying JavaScriptApplication uninstal set can you tell me what that mean?

I have a box keep popping up every time I go to a different page saying Java Script Application uninstal set. What can I do to stop it?

This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in <u>[[Safe mode]]</u>:
* Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

When I'm composing emails a dialog box keeps popping up asking me to click "resend" to reload my email. If I don't I get timed out. This problem has only happened after I installed update 3.6.16

FYI I am referring to my ISP email on the providor's website, although I have not tried opening other email accounts on the updated Firefox.

Safari login keychain box keeps popping up - how to stop?

Please excuse this rookie question, but we recently bought an IMac. The Safari login keychain box keeps popping up and after clicking on cancel, it comes up again and after clicking on cancel again it goes away for a while, then comes back later and does the same thing. How to stop?

OS x 10.5 Lion or 10.9 Mavericks?
OS X 10.9 Mavericks
“Local Items” keychain prompt?
This may help.

A connection error-box keeps popping up

This box keeps popping up. It basically says that there is a problem connecting to the server, and that .file URLs isn't supported. However; I've never tried open a .file-URL, and everything seems to work fine. It still keeps popping up though. Any ideas?

I am getting this same exact problem. I have no idea what is causing it or how to deal with this. Apple better get on this soon because it is interrupting my daily workings of my laptop.It especially isn't good because I use this computer on stage and can't have a stupid pop-up messing up my set...

That really is not likely since the device would have to have at one time been physically connected and synced to your computer, AND Wi-Fi sync enabled while connected to your library, AND they'd have to be on your Wi-Fi network. Unless you have someone who did all this and lives within Wi-Fi range, and knows your network password, that's not what's happening.
Do you have any auxillary software add-ons to iTunes (e.g. Last.fm scrobbler)? Sometimes those get in the way of shutting iTunes down and it will re-open unless you shut the other software down first.
