Babylon search??? has attached to my firefox and I can't get rid of it. There is a back tab with firefox and a front and dominant one with babylon. Help
i have no clue what babylon search is. it has taken a tab in front of firefox. i am terryfied since I use your browser for sensitive info.
Any search toolbar and changes to search engines can take place by downloading and installing software; usually "free" software from the internet. Babylon can be downloaded and installed by itself or as a "ride-along" when installing/updating some software from the internet. Always look for an opportunity during the installation to un-check boxes that will install "ride-along" items that you do not want. Firefox installation does not include such "ride-along" items.

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 can't email a photo directly from iPhoto. First, I only have two "themes" to choose from instead of 8, and when prompted to fill in the "to" and "from", the "from" box has "MobileMe" already in it, and I can't get rid of or change it. I have OSXLion
I understand, as that was the place I would change it before 8.3 but now that option of Mail Days to Sync is not available? Any idea why that would be?

How do I get rid of the "Downloads" button on my bookmarks toolbar? Somehow it just appeared and I can't get rid of it.
Firefox 20 changed from the old Download Manager to a new Download Panel. You can find a complete write-up here: [[Find and manage downloaded files]].
I suggest keeping that arrow around since it provides handy notifications. You can use the Customize feature to drag it down to the add-on bar where it won't take up as much space. To start customizing:
* right-click a blank area of the tab bar > Customize
* tap the Alt key > View menu > Toolbars > Customize
If you really don't need it, just drag it to the Customize dialog. You can always come back for it later if you like. -
'Other' taking up 3.6gb on my phone, what is this and how can I get rid?
Hi guys, basically I'm trying to sync my phone with new music and upgrade to 7.0.6, but its not letting me as I apparently dont't have enough room on my phone. It is also saying that 'Other' taking up 3.6gb on my phone, what is this and how can I get rid of it? (Without losing photos etc. already on my phone)
This has been discussed many, many times on this forum.

Whenever I go to make an in-app purchase, a message pops up saying "this is not a test user account." What does that mean and how can I get rid of it so I can purchase things?
Try a soft-reset and see if it works after your phone has restarted (it seems ot have fixed the error for a number of people on here) : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot.

What is Other (5.96gb) on my Iphone storage and how can I get rid of it?

"Other" data is real data that you put on your phone by using the built in apps. It is not music, not videos, not pictures and not App Store app data. It is "OTHER" meaning everything that does not fall into these categories. Such as:
email messages and attachments
Reminders
Calendar entries
Contacts
Text messages
MMS messages and attachments
Genius data
Music cover art
Operating system settings
Safari cache
bookmarks
Game Center status
Music catalog
Probably a few I've missed. There was a problem in an earlier version where deleted MMS messages left behind their attachments, but that has been fixed as of 6.1. The reason that deleting music recovers some Other space is because it delete cover art. But is also screws up your music, which will no longer play correctly.
You will find posts from people who said they recovered over 1 GB of space by just deleting old text messages.
If you want Other to be smaller you will have to keep less data on your phone; delete old MMS and texts, delete old email (especially from the "deleted" folder), clear the cache, eliminate cover art.
Your Other is so large, however, that there may be corrupt data contained in it (unless you send a lot of MMS messages with large attachments). If this is the case you should restore the phone as New. -

ITunes on iCloud has created unwanted multiple playlists. How can I get rid of them?
iTunes on iCloud has created unwanted multiple playlists. How can I get rid of them?
Hi, if this is in regards to your library simply open up itunes and do the following steps:
Click File
Scroll down to "show duplicates"
A list will then appear of your duplicate song titles.
Be sure to CAREFULLY review each song to make sure it is a duplicate ( as I have some music that is the same song but live, acoustic etc...)
Proceed to manually delete each song from the list and leave alone any song that you wish to keep.
For playlists, you will need to hit the name tab so that your doubles line up, from there you will have to manually delete them, it helps to hold the Control button to select multiple songs as a time ( they will be highlighted) then when your done selecting the songs you wish to delete, right click your mouse and select the delete option from the window tab.
Best of luck, please rate my response for help!

I have some songs that have an exclamantion point next to them and I can't get them to sync. I had to move them manually into a playlist and succeeded in doing that but now the playlist won't sync. What's the problem?
I have the same problem and I am very upset. I have heard that Apple/iTunes is removing all songs that are unlicened for this type of download. Apple does not want to be responsible for pirated music. Much of mine is down loaded from CD's. I have to go to search and put in every song and then, if found, put it into My Music then back into iTunes. WHAT A HASSLE. I don't remeber reading anything about this. 224 songs so far. NOT HAPPY.

History window opens by default when i open a new window or restart firefox. How can i get rid of that ? its annoying
If the History sidebar is closed when you close Firefox and doesn't stay closed on the next start then that can be problem with the file localstore.rdf in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder]
Delete localstore.rdf or rename the file to localstore.rdf.sav in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder] to test if the file is corrupted.<br />
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Corrupt_localstore.rdf<br />
(caution: do not delete the localstore.rdf file in the Firefox program installation folder)
Note:<br />
Deleting the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/localstore.rdf localstore.rdf] will reset the customizations of the toolbars to the defaults.<br />
You can rename "localstore.rdf" to "localstore.rdf.sav" to test if that solves it.<br />
Then you can restore the customization by copying "localstore.rdf.sav" to "localstore.rdf" if it didn't work.<br /> -
Premiere Pro keeps shutting down and I can't get rid of video clip from timeline
Lately, Premiere Pro keeps bringing up a message when I'm working on my project that says "serious error, Adobe Premier Pro needs to shut down". It's happened four times now. I've tried restarting the computer, uninstalling some programs I wasn't using, and even running updates that were needed. Still no luck. Also, in between shutdowns, there's a clip on my timeline that I imported from YouTube, and I can't get rid of it when I click "Cut" or "Clear". Any idea on why these things are happening?

There's a not enough storage message appearing and I can't get rid of it.
There's a not enough storage message appearing and I can't get rid of it.
A reset may help: Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off button at the same time for approximately 10-15 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears, release both buttons and await restart.

What is the file attribute @ and how can I get rid of it
I converted some wav files using Roxio Toast 11 and the output AIF files have a '@' in the file permissions and are not displayed in Finder. What does the '@' mean and how can I get rid of it. Would love to know why Toast adds it but I posted a question on Roxio's site and hopefully will get an answer to that.
thanks for the help
johnokay, so I yes, it does indicate extended attributes. I executed ls -l@ *.aif and got this

I then did xattr -c *.aif to clear the extended attributes which got rid of the '@' but the files are still not being displayed in Finder.

This is what it looks like. It's in a small box in the middle of the screen with grey over the rest of the screen. I can't do anything until I "x" it away.
