Can't get rid of ended call icon in recent convers...

I recently noticed that since updating my Skype on Windows 7 that whenever a call is ended, the call finished icon stays even if I've turned off my computer for 12 hours, come back on and signed into Skype. It's really frustrating because it's starting to clog up my recent conversations and I only use Skype to talk to my fiance and my sister daily.
Here is a screenshot attached so you know what I mean. Does anyone know how to fix it? I have tried clicking hide conversation, but it doesn't do anything. It's becoming tedious to look at and I really want it to go back to how it used to be where the call ended icon would disappear after a few seconds of the call being, actually you know, ended. Don't worry, the screenshot of the people aren't actually their Skype names (I've renamed them on my contact list anyway so it doesn't show up their full names or Skype names)
Thanks in advance!

My guess is it is automatically adding a Desktop item to the open file dialog, and it is displaying the one you manually put there. Remove the one you added, then go to the Finder Preferences and check the Desktop item in the Sidebar Prefs.

How can i get rid of sound effects icon in middle of screen?

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off".

Can't Get Rid of Shadows Behind icons.

I left my imac on last night without sleep mode so that the linux would do any self repairs needed. In the past I have done that with success. Normaly the screensaver comes on during the period in which I've turned off the sleep mode. For some reason the screesaver never came on. When I awoke this morning I have an annoying shadow in the form of a square or rectangular box behind every icon on my screen, including the dock and also behind the cursor. The shadows are made up of small vertical black lines in rows of 6. Is there anything I can do to get rid of these shdadows?

Can't get rid of desktop's icon in sidebar? There are two of them! (w/pic)

I was trying to clean up my home folder when I accidentally dragged the "desktop" icon into the trash. I drug it back out and put it back in there, but now, when I go to open a file in another program, I see TWO desktop icons!
I don't see two of them in the regular finder sidebar, just anytime a "browse" box is open.
How do I get rid of it? Thanks!

My guess is it is automatically adding a Desktop item to the open file dialog, and it is displaying the one you manually put there. Remove the one you added, then go to the Finder Preferences and check the Desktop item in the Sidebar Prefs.

I can't get rid of a RebateInformer Icon. It arrived with a Firefox update and I don't want it! What do I do?

I am NOT an experienced computer user but I do know how to
get rid of a program. Even the "RebateInformer" told me to go to Control Panel & get rid of it there but it's not listed there. I did a search and found it. It's in C program files and when I go there it's along with firefox in C program files and settings with an update. When I try to delete it of course it says part of it is
being used! Nice little piece of garbage I've got somehow!
I know nothing else to do. I am truly a novice. I just tried this so I don't know how often it happens.

Reboot the device.
Shut down the device by holding the sleep/wake button and the home button at the same time.
Hold them both until you see the screen go black. In some cases, you may need to keep holding them even after the red power off slider appears. If it does, just keep holding it.
Wait until the white Apple logo appears.
When this happens, you can let go - the iPhone is rebooting.

How can I get rid of the calendar icon that's showing on the top right of my screen?

I can't figure out why the calendar icon is only showing when locked? When I unlock it it's not telling me I've missed anything and the icon isn't there so I can't figure out where's it coming from to delete it. Help!
Solved!

Try a Battery Pull:
1. Remove the battery while phone is turned on
2. Wait a few seconds before inserting it again
3. Allow the long boot up process to finish (takes a few minutes usually)
This clears most software issues that occur on blackberries from time to time. You could also use Quickpull, a free app that simulates a battery pull without physically removing the battery: http://software.crackberry.com/product.asp?id=27660
A battery pull reclaims memory lost during application usage and clears minor software errors that creep in over time. The blackberry runs an OS just like your PC runs windows and the battery pull is the equivalent of a reboot/restart on your computer.

Can't get rid of unread mail icon--shows 2 unread messages but can't find any

I've got a smart mailbox that shows unread messages so I can easily see what new and unread mail I have. The problem is it gives me the notification icon that indicates I have two unread messages, yet the mailbox does not show any messages as unread... This isn't a huge problem, but the Mail icon in my dock always shows that I have new mail, and the notification icon is small enough that I can't always clearly see if it's the "usual 2" or a higher number. What could be causing this and how do I either find the unread messages or get this icon reduced to where it only shows me REAL unread messages?

Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
Back up all data. That means you know you can restore the Mail database, no matter what happens.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return.
A folder window will open. Inside it there should be files with names as follows:
Envelope Index
ExternalUpdates.storedata
Move those files to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have longer names that begin as above. Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
Log out and log back in. Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is damaged and that Mail has to quit. Click OK. Typically, the process takes a few minutes, but it may take hours if you have gigantic mailboxes. In that case, you may be able to speed things up by temporarily adding your home folder to the Privacy list in the Spotlight preference pane. Remove it when Mail has finished importing.
Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the files you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

Here is a pretty comprehensive post about the sad iPod icon. Be aware that it's quite involved and contains some info that will almost certainly void the warranty. If your iPod is still within the warranty period, you should use that option first.

Can't get rid of white app icons

Hey guys. Just today the icons on some of my apps have gone white on my iPod Touch (4th gen iOS 4.2.1). It's not the same shade of white that you get when downloading apps. I have tried rebooting my ipod and resyncing it with iTunes, but these solutions don't work. The apps run and work fine, but their icon has disappeared.
Here's a screenshot, if that will help: http://desmond.yfrog.com/Himg612/scaled.php?tn=0&server=612&filename=nw2.png&xsi ze=640&ysize=640

How can I get rid of the speaker icon?!

The speaker icon (labeled "sound effects") started popping up for no reason in the middle of the screen. It remains on the highest volume. When I lower the volume it climbs right back up to the highest. I have all the latest updates installed. I don't want to do a complete reset because I would have to reinstall everything. Is there another way to make that icon disappear?
     There's another problem and maybe they are related. When the ipod runs on the battery only it gives a false reading. It shows the battery is almost completely depleted. However, as soon as I plug it in it shows 50% (it will charge completely if I leave it plugged in). Anyone want to take a crack at solving this?

% battery on an iPod is not accurate so what you seeing is not abnormal.
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

How can I get rid of the Firefox icon in the notifications tray? I don't mean just hiding it, I mean disabling or uninstalling it.

It's taking up space and memory, and I don't need it. For me, it's not useful in any way.

Strange, i never saw firefox icon in my notification tray, but to remove the icon do this:
First you need open the Registry Editor:
Go to Start, Execute, type "regedit":

or see this article:
*[http://pcsupport.about.com/od/registry/ht/open-registry-editor.htm How to open Editor Registry]
After...
In the follow window do this way:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\TrayNotify
And in the right side of window delete two files:
*IconStrems
*PastIconsStream

How can I get rid of those annoying icons on the side of each Safari page for 'sharing' to Facebook, etc?

When I open a page in Safari, there is a bar to the left side that obscures some of the text on the page. It contains icons for different ways of sharing a page, such as Facebook, tweet etc. I would like to make them go away. But they seem stuck there.

I couldn't agree with you more! I just reposted the question, hoping someone will know how to say "adios" to them!
