Getting rid of a "download" icon appearing in Safari browser Flash Player

Please HELP!! I've inserted two screen shots to demonstrate what I'm trying to get rid of. Some months ago I downloaded the Free Video Downloader for Mac from here:
http://www.iskysoft.com/free-mac-video-downloader.html
I'm stuck with a very annoying "Download" icon that POPS UP TOP LEFT when I mouse-hover on any and all Flash Player content on my Safari browser. I'm on Mac OS10.5.8. This is ONLY happening on my Safari browser. Not on Firefox or Chrome. I downloaded a Flash Video downloader for Safari months ago. I've deleted ALL traces of the app. I've been everywhere in my system Library - Application Support - Safari folders - etc, I've looked everywhere. Updating Flash Player makes no difference. Clearing all data in the Flash Player System Preferences interface does not get rid of it. Clearing the entire Safair cache does not get rid of it. Re-installing Safari does not get rid of it. I've tried anything and everything I can think of and I've run out of ideas! Short of wiping my hard drive and re-installing Leopard which I do not want to do, I'm stumped. Every time I hover my mouse over Flash content - I'm STILL stuck with this highly annoying "Download" icon in the top left corner of all Safari Browser Flash content. Can anyone PLEASE help me get rid of it. Many thanks!! NT

I am having exactly the same problem. Have trawled the internet for solutions and can't find one yet. Please can there be someone clever enough out there to fix this? It's driving me insane... Any suggestions will be gratefully received.

Getting rid of white download icons

This may seem like a stupid question, but I can't seem to solve it. Whenever I download something, it creates a white zip disk like icon on my desktop. When I'm done installing the program, I "eject" the icon. But when I open that program, the icon reappears on my desktop. The best example I can think of is when I use Firefox. Any suggestions on how to get rid of this problem?

You are running Firefox from the disc image.
What you need to do is click on that Firefox disc and drag the Firefox icon into your applications folder. This will install it.
If you already have a Firefox icon in your dock, drag it out to discard it. It is a shortcut to the disc image and not the application. Drag the Firefox icon from your applications folder to the dock and you are good to go.
Lastly eject the Firefox disc.

How to get rid of an xfinity cookie in my safari browser?

xfinity has somehow lodgedcookie in my safari which periodically tries to take me off the wifi I am using and redirect me to xfinity. I have never used xfinity, but I seem to remember being in a friend's house months ago that did use xfinity.

Try going to Safari Preferences/ Privacy, you can remove all website data, or click details and then select indiviual cookies and remove.
Also check Extentions for anything that may look like it may be the cause of the redirect.

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.

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.

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".

How do I get rid of a Facebook icon and message?

When I power off my iMac or click “restart,” a fresh desktop screen appears.
After everything loads, I am left with a tiny Facebook icon in the top menu bar of your desktop screen, and a window suspended in the middle of your screen which invites me to sign up for Facebook.
At that moment, no applications are running, not even Safari.
How do I get rid of the Facebook icon in the main menu of my Desktop, and the nagging window that floats in the middle of the desktop?
Thanks

YAY! I'm glad that made it go away. When anything weird is going on with my iPad or iPhone (or PC - not really needed with my Mac ), I find that a reset is my best friend!
Enjoy your new iPad! I love mine, and it's an oldie - iPad 1!

You don't, unless you disable the Camera app entirely.
It's such a nuisance...
Really, how so?
I don't want people going into my photos or my iphone!!
If you add a passcode to your iPhone as you should, then there's no way they can see anything in your iPhone. Of course, if the passcode is set but not enough time has elapsed that's different -- but that has nothing to do with this icon.

Here's a small example:

// ... and somewhere after :
Icon openIcon = new ImageIcon(getClass().getResource("images/show-minus4.gif"));
Icon closedIcon = new ImageIcon(getClass().getResource("images/show-plus4.gif"));
((javax.swing.plaf.basic.BasicTreeUI) tree.getUI()).setExpandedIcon(openIcon);
((javax.swing.plaf.basic.BasicTreeUI) tree.getUI()).setCollapsedIcon(closedIcon);

Find the ADDRESS box at the top left corner of your browser ( where http://forums.adobe.com appears ). On the far right side of the ADDRESS box is a clockwise circular arrow that will REFRESH your current web page. Immediately to the left of the REFRESH arrow is a small circle with a diagonal line thru it ( the universal symbol for negation as in the traffic sign NO LEFT TURN ). Left click on the small circle and then click on the TURN OFF ACTIVE X FILTERING button that appears in the drop down box.
Flash Player is probably already properly installed on your computer. Internet Explorer ( your browser ) just blocks certain TYPES of content as potentially harmful and when it does, ABC.com ( for example ) thinks you don't have Flash Player installed and offers a way for you to install it. You don not want to turn off Active X filtering using the tools menu because that will make you vulnerable to malicious applets that the filter was constructed to protect against.

Every time I try to download the new version of Adobe Flash Player it saves as a .txt file and I do not know how to get it to save in the correct format.

HHow do I get rid of this phony FBI block on safari were they want $200

Quit Safari, choosing Force Quit from the Apple menu if needed, and then relaunch it with the Shift key held down. If that doesn’t work, disconnect the computer from the Internet and try again.
