FP update completely removes player from computers

I am posting this as a complaint about how the Flash Player automatic updater is working. I am in IT support in an enterprise environment. We have been getting multiple help requests recently about users not having flash player on their computer. What seems to be happening is they are getting the prompt about a player update being available, so they are selecting it. The updater is removing the current version before it checks whether the user has admin rights to install the new one. The result is not having flash at all on the computer. Please correct the updater process to check the users rights BEFORE removing the existing install.
Also, I would appreciate tips on disabling the notification of flash player updates for users.
Thanks!

This is a user-to-user forum; enhancement requests or bug reports should be filed at https://bugs.adobe.com/flashplayer/
Update notifications can be disabled in the Flash Player settings, or in a mms.cfg file (see http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/articles/flash_player_admin_guide.html).

How do i completely remove headers from email messages

Hi everyone. Can someone tell me how to completely remove the headers from showing up in messages i send, forward or receive? I know how to make the headers shorter, but that's not what i want to do. I want to completely remove them from all outgoing and incoming messages. Thanks!

Hi lpagillo.
Not sure what you mean. You cannot remove the headers from the messages themselves. If what you want is them to not show up so that they don’t take up space on the screen, choose None in Preferences > Viewing > Show header detail.

I see this was not answered or any info on the web site so I will ask again "How do I completely remove CC from my computer"

You can't. Default Apple Apps cannot be removed. If you sign out of your Apple Id in Settings->Messages->Send & Receive->Apple ID then the iPad will have no knowledge of your Phone number.

How do I completely remove Bing from Safari

I have tried to remove Bing from Safari by doing the following:
1) Checked that default search enging is google
2) Turned off extensions (and deleted install.mac extension)
3) Searched fo Bing in finder without success
All the discussion suggestions complete the steps above, but they have not worked for me. I'd really like to stick with Google and dont really want to try other search engines
Kind regards

Look to the right of Safari's address window. You should have a search engine window. Click on the SE icon inside the window & select Manage Search Engines.

HT201322 Completely remove app from iphone

Hi, Can someone please tell me how i completely remove an app from my iphone 4s?
The apps are in the Purchased History of the app store and i want to remove them from there, few people have said you cannot do this but you can hide them.
Can anyone at least tell me how to hide them? I have deleted them because i dont want them so i am not bothered about losing them completely, and clicking the cross on the app only removes it from the home screen, also i have tried going into itunes to view my purchased apps on there but this list people keep mentioning that appears on the left hand side when you click apps does not appear on mine, i have tried checking the settings and still cannot find a way to see these apps and delete them from itunes. Please can someone help me resolve this. Thanks

You can't currently permanently delete any items from your purchase history, but you can hide them so that they are less visible (they won't show in the Purchased tab unless you unhide them) - if you folllow the instructions for hiding them via your computer's iTunes as described on the page that you posted from then they should get hidden (you can't currently hide them directly on an iOS 6 device) i.e.
on your computer's iTunes select the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page. That should show you a screen where you can select Apps at the top of it to display a list of your purchased/downloaded apps (those that are still in the store and not hidden) - if you hover your mouse pointer over an app that you want to hide then it should get an 'x' appear on it, click that to hide it

Babylon addon installed without my consent. I want to completely remove it from my computer, but how ?

I was trying to take a download but MediaGet and Babylon appeared to self install. I have removed most of these but the
Babylon addon can only be disabled. I wish to remove it from the computer altogether, and cannot see how.

Thanks for that, but after I tried it I still had files and a folder on my system which linked to Babylon. Eventually I had to search the registry, which I am never happy about. It is all cleared now.
Incidentally I do use Revo Uninstaller which usually does a great job.

How do I completely remove favicons from bookmarks toolbar?

I have added the following code to my userChrome.css file, but favicons pop up again when I download files (documents, photos, etc). How can I get rid of favicons completely, so that they don't reappear after a download?
Thanks!
<pre><nowiki> */
/* Bookmarks Toolbar - hide favicons/placeholders for sites, but show folder icons for menus */
#personal-bookmarks toolbarbutton:not([type="menu"]) .toolbarbutton-icon {display:none !important;}
#personal-bookmarks menuitem .menu-iconic-icon {display:none !important;}
/* Bookmarks Menu - hide favicons/placeholders for sites, but show folder icons for menus */
#bookmarksMenu menuitem .menu-iconic-icon {display:none !important;}
#PlacesToolbarItems .toolbarbutton-icon {display:none!important;}</nowiki></pre>

Hi KDSXflat, the userChrome-example.css file is not necessary. The correct spelling of the file you want to create or edit is userChrome.css. The location for the file can be discovered as follows:
(WIN) Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button<br>
(MAC) Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Open in Finder" button
Then look for a chrome folder. If there is no chrome folder, create a folder named chrome and open it. This is the proper location for your userChrome.css file. More info: [http://kb.mozillazine.org/UserChrome.css].
Due to changes in the design of the Bookmarks Toolbar, please use the updated style rules instead of the rules for Firefox 3.6. Here are some examples:
(1) cor-el's global rule above
@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */
#personal-bookmarks .bookmark-item:not([container]) .toolbarbutton-icon{
display:none!important;
(2) targeted rules from the linked thread (use just the ones you like):
@namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul); /* only needed once */
/* Hide icons for FOLDERS */
#PlacesToolbarItems .bookmark-item[type="menu"] .toolbarbutton-icon {
display:none !important
/* Hide icons for SITES */
#PlacesToolbarItems .bookmark-item:not([type="menu"]) .toolbarbutton-icon {
display:none !important
/* Add a bit of spacing */
#PlacesToolbarItems .bookmark-item {
margin-left:3px !important;
There are more ways to slice and dice, but hopefully that will get you started.

I need to completely remove WebRoot from my Macbook Air and cannot. Please point me in the right direction

I have purchased another security system for my Mackbook Air and my required PC. I now cannot remove Webroot security from my Mac. It responds to me that I do not have "the authority.....", cannot because "it is in use elsewhere", etc. I am using Finder and when I ask to move the application, Finder asks me for my authority password and acts like it is doing the job, but up pops the reason (above) why I can't. I'm not an experienced user of the Mac product but like it a lot. Hopefully, someone can give me a hint. Thanks in advance!

Any third-party software that doesn't install by drag-and-drop into the Applications folder, and uninstall by drag-and-drop to the Trash, is a system modification.
Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
Here are some general guidelines. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickYourMac.” First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickyourmac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, contact the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickYourMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickYourMac.” If not, open “BrickYourMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button.
You may have to log out or reboot in order to complete an uninstallation.
If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase your boot volume and perform a clean reinstallation of OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" that purport to remove software.

I would like to completely remove itunes from my windows 7 computer. How do I do it so that when I reinstall itunes, it will be like the first time it was installed?

Hello.
I am having an issue with iTunes seeing my music on my server because when I directed iTunes to the location of my music folder it installed an iTumes folder and doubled up size of the music in the folder causing an issue with the amount of space left on the HDD. I was unaware that iTunes did this and would like to start all over again but have the iTunes folder on a different HDD from the HDD with the music on it.
Am I asking for something that is not able to be accomplished or is there a way to do this?
I am unable to keep the music on my laptop because the HDD is setup in a triple boot(XP, Vista, Win7) and each partition has less than 50GB of space left in it and I have alot more music than I have space.
I have readjusted the files on my server as I used to share some of my documents on the HDD where the music was located but there still is an issue with space once iTunes doubles up the files. I have a HDD attached to the server specifically for iTunes once I get this issue solved with more than enough space.
I would like to get this issue solved so that I can install iTunes on my identity on my wife's computer and want to be able to direct iTunes to the locations of files and folders without any conflicts.

How can I completely remove pages from a Pages document?

I had a 44 page Pages document, 95MB in size (it had a lot of TIFFs in it). I deleted all but 9 pages, removing 15 of the 18 TIFFs, but found the document was still 94.7MB. Huh? I cracked open the document using Pacifist, and found a folder titled ".iWTrash" that is 78.4MB in size, containing 4 blank-icon documents with numbers (00000001, etc) for names. This is apparently the material from all the deleted pages. Why is it being kept? Is there any way I can get rid of it, reduce the file to the ~16MB it ought to be?
TIA,
Andrew Main

What action did you take to "delete" the 35 pages and 15 TIFFs?''
I selected them in the thumbnail sidebar and pressed the Delete key. The second time I did it I noticed there is a "Delete Page..." command in the Edit menu, so I used that. Which is what the Pages Manual says to do. In both cases, a dialog appeared asking if I was sure I wanted to delete page XX, and assuring me that "The section containing this page will be deleted." I don't have any sections in the document (it's all one), but I clicked the Delete button and the pages disappeared—but as I said, the document remained the same size, and when I pried it open with Pacifist I saw there was 78+MB of mystery data in it, in a folder titled ".iWTrash". The leading dot makes it invisible I guess, but I don't see why since it's hidden inside the document anyway.
As I recall, Pages documents were originally .zip files or something easily opened, but I thought I'd read that had changed. The contextual menu's "Open With" gives three possibilities: Archive Utility (which makes the 94.7MB Pages file into a 2.2MB .cpgz file, which when double-clicked recreates the 94.7MB original—now that's compression!); Pacifist (which opens the file so I can see what's in it); and The Unarchiver (which converts the Pages file into a folder of its contents, including the ".iWTrash" folder which is invisible in the Finder because of its leading dot.
Is this a WP document or a PL document?
It's a PL document.
I suspect you had floating images in a Word Processing document and deleted the text. The images are still there on the removed pages, if you do a series of page breaks they should reappear on the additional pages where you can delete them directly.
Well, no, it's a Page Layout document, and I deleted the pages, not the items on them (half had text, half had TIFF graphics). I tried adding blank pages back into the document, but they're blank; the text and graphics don't appear on them.
But all that data is still in the file, now in "bulk" form, doing nobody any good.
Okay, so I took the 9-page (94MB) document, with the 78MB ".iWTrash" folder in it, and deleted four more pages. But this time I first deleted the material on the pages, then deleted the (now blank) pages. Suddenly the document is a mere 6.6MB! I opened it up, and it has only the material that's visible in the document, no ".iWTrash" folder. The other 78MB has disappeared also. Seems kind of tedious if you have to first delete the material on the pages before deleting the pages; but maybe if you delete all the pages (with the material still on them) but one, then delete the material on the last page and then delete that page, it'll get rid of the whole mess? Complicated, and of course none of this is explained in the manual. Nor can I see any logical reason for it.
Another experiment: I took the 9-page (94MB) document, with the 78MB ".iWTrash" folder in it, and deleted four more pages, by simply selecting them and deleting them (without deleting the material on them first). Now the file is 12.5MB, and Pacifist reveals it has an .iWTrash folder of 5.5MB, i.e. approximately the material that was deleted this time, but it's lost the 78MB that was deleted the last time.
Well, this is all lots of fun, but it still makes no sense. If it's some kind of "dummy's backup", I can't see any way to make any use of it. Otherwise it just takes up space to no use.
The other possibility is images on captured master pages.
Do PL documents have master pages? On which you can place elements that will appear on all pages (such as, say, crop marks)? Seems to me my so-far brief perusal of the Pages Manual indicates not. Which doesn't make sense.
Thanks, everyone, for your responses.
