Can't stop "check plug-in page" from appearing

I have utilized all of the solutions listed in the support pages. I am still getting a check plug-in page. How do I disable it??? I am using Firefox 16.0.2.

I have also tried the restore to default on the homepage. I still get 2 open firefox pages (one being the plugin page). I am unable to do a screenshot of the page - but it is Firefox's page, not a third party's. And I don't even have adobe acrobat on my pc!

  • How do I stop the check plug in page from popping up every time I double click the firefox desktop icon?

    Two pages pop up when I double click the firefox icon on the desktop, the home page and the check plug in page. How do I stop the check plug in page from repeatedly popping up when I double click the firefox icon?

    ''I uninstalled AOL IM and disabled MetaStream 3 Plugin but that didn't work either. I don't currently have viewpoint media player that I'm aware of. ''
    '''''MetaStream 3 Plugin''' MetaStream 3 Plugin r4 Unknown plugin Research''
    This is apparently the Viewpoint Media Player plugin '''npViewpoint.dll'''. Even though you don't see the Viewpoint Media Player listed in your list of installed programs, it might be listed as a different application.
    Disabling the MetaStream 3 Plugin in the Firefox Add-ons Manager removes it from the about:plugins list but apparently does not stop the PluginCheck from finding it. You should re-enable the MetaStream 3 Plugin in the Firefox Add-ons Manager list of plugins. You can then find and remove the plugin file '''npViewpoint.dll''' from your computer, using the following instructions, from this thread at mozillazine:<br>

    The Plugin Check page listed about eight plugins with status listed as "unknown plugin." It turns out that the very last one on the list, ''''MetaStream 3 Plugin'''', which dated all the way back to 1/13/2004, was the one triggering this "Update" Nag. Here's what I did.
    #Enter about:config into the address bar
    #Locate the preference 'plugin.expose_full_path' by typing it into the filter bar
    #Toggle that preference true (right click, toggle)
    #Enter about:plugins in the address bar
    #The resulting "Installed Plugins" list will now show the full path and file name of the associated plugin DLL file.
    #Simply go to the directory of the suspect plugin (using Windows Explorer or whatever) and rename the DLL file (I just appended '.OLD' to the DLL file name, e.g., ''''npViewpoint.dll'''.OLD')
    #Quit firefox (file, exit) and restart.
    #If you don't get redirected to the Plugin Check page then problem solved. If you do get redirected to the Plugin Check page then the plugin you just nuked (by renaming the DLL file) should be gone from the list.
    #Repeat with the other "unknown plugins" until you don't get redirected upon Firefox startup.

  • I can't stop the Firefox Start page from opening - in addition to my default page - each time I open Firefox

    # Question
    I can't stop the Firefox Start page from opening - in addition to my default page - each time I open Firefox

    Is this the Firefox branded Google page? If it is, Firefox can store multiple home pages and you may have 2 home pages set. Follow the instructions to set a single home page in this link - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
    If it is the Firefox has just updated page that keeps on appearing, there may be a different problem, for details on fixing that see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Firefox+has+just+updated+tab+shows+each+time+you+start+Firefox

  • How can I stop the iWeb welcome movie from appearing

    How can I stop the iWeb welcome movie from appearing every time iWeb starts up?
    Oh yes and now that we are talking: when I plug in my ipod, I want iTunes to start, not iPhoto.
    Who knows these tricks?

    iPhoto seems to be viewing the iPod as a camera.  Therefore go to iPhoto's General preference pane and select No application in the Connecting camera opens: menu.

    How can one stop the annoying MobileMe notice from appearing every time iPhoto is opened?

    Well then you can not remove something that obviously has been removed
    Did you remove the references in the iPhoto preferences?  Did this eliminate the problem?  If so then you are done and your problem has been
    N resolved.

  • I CAN'T STOP THE "WHATS NEW PAGE" FROM OPENING ON STARTUP

    EVERY TIME I CLICK ON "FIREFOX" THE "WHATS NEW "PAGE OPENS UP. I CAN'T GET IT TO STOP. IF I CLIK A LINK, THE "WHAT'S NEW" PAGE POPS UP, AND I HAVE TO DROP IT IN ORDER TO GET TO THE SEARCH PAGE. ANY IDEAS?

    Check the Home page setting: [[How to set the home page]] - Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' symbols

  • How can I stop the Add-on Bar from appearing everytime a new tab or window is opened?

    I close it each time, and I have also removed it by unchecking it in the toolbar (or similar) menu. However, it always reappears whenever I open a new tab or re-open Firefox. How can I get rid of it unless I choose for it to become present again?

    Right-click the "+" tab and deselect the Add-on Bar entry tick. The Add-on Bar should then disappear for the remainder of the session but will reappear when you restart Firefox. If you want to permanently remove the Add-on Bar then a different approach must be used, using a modified userChrome.css file.

  • How can I stop the yellow browser bar from appearing? the one which says "unable to contact the login server"???

    this yellow bar appears constantly while I am using the internet. It says" LastPass was unable to contact the login server, etc., etc."
    It is very annoying, and causes my screen to jump about when it is being active.
    I am using windows 7 on a HP desktop.

    hello Larryrush, please contact lastpass's support about this issue - they can likely give you better advice and are the only people who can resolve server errors in their network.

  • How can I stop my Droid Razr-M from turning on when i plug in the charger?

    How can I stop my Droid Razr-M from turning on when i plug in the charger? I can turn it off and even wait a few minutes before plugging it in to the charger and it still turns on immediately when plugged in. If I turn it off after plugging in the charger, it turns back on right away too.

        I know its frustrating to have your phone powered on when dharger brazzco. Have you tried to to plug the phone into the charger then power the phone down? Are you u sing the wall charger or USB charger? Is the phone damaged? Keep us posted.

  • HT1399 How can I stop my MacBook's iTunes from asking if I want to delete tracks each time I press to play one?

    How can I stop my MacBook's iTunes from asking if I want to delete tracks each time I press to play one? Is it a bug from iTunes's version 11.0.5?
    Since I dowloaded and installed iTunes' version 11.0.5 on my MacBook, it is behaving strangely:
    - displaying an alert message asing if I want to delete tracks each time I press to play one
    - not playing tracks in the order they're displayed in my library, sometimes jumping from one playlist to the other
    I did check my settings and preferences for playing tracks and tried changing some parameters in them, however it still doesn't help.
    It seems to be a bug in iTunes' version 11.0.5 — if you had a similar experience and found how to solve this discomfort, thanks for contacting me.

    Oui, je parle français. En fait, il semble qu'Apple ait résolu le problème auquel j'étais confronté car ce problème a disparu suite à la mise à jour logicielle d'après (désormais sous Mavericks).
    (It seems Apple solved the problem I was facing since this problem disappeared after I updated my software to/under Mavericks).

  • Captivate 6: Can I hyperink to a web page from an image?

    In Captivate 6, can I hyperlink to a web page from an image?

    You can fill a smart shape with the image using the Texture button, but beware: choose a shape with the same size as the image. Maybe Sreekanth is telling the same, but I didn't get his 'assign custom image to it'? And if you want to have a pause for a shape button, you have to check it in the Timing accordion.
    Another approach is to put a click box on top of the image. You can open the URL in another window using the small triangle drop down list, and be sure to uncheck Continue Project to avoid that the playhead will continue.
