Have deleted firefix and then tried to looad a clean version but it reloads the older header with two google searcxhes etc that I just cannot get rid of. How do I create a new clean version please/

I had two tool bars with google search in the header part . Cannot delete them even if I delete firefox and relaod. Am not sure where any other details I have could be stored that I haven't found. I now assume it is on the firefox web site. I just want to download a clean (new) copy of firefox and none of the stuff I had as add ons in the one I have just deleted (twice because it will not disappear so there are files somewhere I can't find. Please tell me how to get a clean version with no old stuff from previous load.

You can uninstall the relevant extensions from Tools>Addons to remove those toolbars. Also there may be some unwanted plugins which you may want to disable. This should solve your problems.
If you still want a clean profile, uninstall firefox with the "Remove my Firefox personal data and customizations" checkbox enabled. Alternatively you may remove your firefox profile folder which (on Window7) is stored in C:\Users\<your-username>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles folder with a randomly name. You may delete this folder before installing a new version to get a clean profile.

    can i ever get my photos back if i have deleted them and then emptied the trash?

    Yes — just restore them from your backup.
    No backup? This is why you need one. Now you know.
    You may be able to recover some or all of your pictures, but not the structure of your iPhoto Library, using one of these data recovery utilities:
    Data Rescue 3: http://www.prosofteng.com/products/data_rescue.php
    FileSalvage 7: http://subrosasoft.com/OSXSoftware/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id= 1
    Both are offered in demo versions that will show you what the full version could recover before you have to pay for anything.

    I typed in data into the highlighted text box, and then tried to print my form.  However, when printed, the copy only showed a portion of my answer.  Is there a way to expand Adobe Reader's highlighted text to show my full response, or should I make my responses only as long as the highlighted portion allows?

    While printing any pdf file it will print the visible text only. To overcome this, the form needs to be dynamic so that it expands in layout while entering more data. Usually dynamic forms are developed by Adobe LiveCycle Designer.

  • I recently downloaded a movie with an avi extension, I changed it to .m4v and then tried to import it into iTunes but never goes through the importing process and it never shows up.

    I recently downloaded a movie with an avi extension, I changed it to .m4v and then tried to import it into iTunes but never goes through the importing process and it never shows up.

    That WON'T convert it.
    If I do the same with an MP3 and change the extension to JPG, it DOESN'T make it a picture. It makes it unusable.
    Change it back to AVI and download "Handbrake". http://handbrake.fr/
    Use HandBrake to "convert" it to M4V.

    ATV2 does not have permanent storage. The rental is flushed when the device is turned off or other content accessed. You would need to use your computer to rent (and home-share to ATV) if you wish to store for a later time.

    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at the top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    Then GULP, check for this...
    Flashback - Detect and remove the uprising Mac OS X Trojan...
    http://www.mac-and-i.net/2012/04/flashback-detect-and-remove-uprising.html
    In order to avoid detection, the installer will first look for the presence of some antivirus tools and other utilities that might be present on a power user's system, which according to F-Secure include the following:
    /Library/Little Snitch
    /Developer/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/MacOS/Xcode
    /Applications/VirusBarrier X6.app
    /Applications/iAntiVirus/iAntiVirus.app
    /Applications/avast!.app
    /Applications/ClamXav.app
    /Applications/HTTPScoop.app
    /Applications/Packet Peeper.app
    If these tools are found, then the malware deletes itself in an attempt to prevent detection by those who have the means and capability to do so. Many malware programs use this behavior, as was seen in others such as the Tsunami malware bot.

  • HT201177 I have a horizontal line in the bottom 1/3 of my screen display that I can't get rid of

    I can't seem to get rid of this black horizontal line in the bottom 1/3 of my display its there in all applications and there appears to be a shadow bar behind it? any help would be appreciated

    What model iMac? This forum covers three different variants made before 2006. They have different display technologies.
    Doing "About this Mac" from your Apple menu and posting the info found there for your processor type is a good start. If that shows you have an Intel processor, those iMacs are different enough to have a separate forum here:

  • With the latest OS X, released today (12 October) are you finding that 1, you cannot get rid of your guest account, and 2, the computer has slowed down?

    I feel that since updating to 10.7.2, my MBP 15" feels a little slower, especially in the login screen, and I have this "Guest User" on my login screen, and I dont want it there!!! How can I get rid of it, and is anyone else having the same problems? Thanks!

    Hi thanks for the answer... Apple have told me that the guest account can be deactivated, but not removed from the login screen and the lagged Bootup/Shutdown is due to the iCloud services coming online and the computer synching with iCloud!
    Just wanted to share this with you if it helps.

  • HT1414 i have a 2008 ipod. trying to update and getting -1 error. Have reset Ipod and then tried, same prob

    Error 1 or -1
    This may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow Troubleshooting security software issues, and restore your device on a different known-good computer. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    The "device may need service" means a hardware problem. in that case make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • My Sony Cybershot has always connected directly to iPhoto, but I must have changed a setting somewhere, and now it opens in Finder. Very frustrating to have to locate and then drag pics to iPhoto. Would I reset in the camera menu or in System Preferences?

    My Sony Cybershot has always connected directly to iPhoto, but I must have changed a setting somewhere and now it opens in Finder. Very frustrating and I can't find where to change the settings - camera menu or Mac Preferences. Any advice?? Thanks

    No, not in iPhoto, but instead in Finder (only). I've tried going into the camera menu and making sure it's set on Mass Storage, but no difference. Then I tried Auto - but also no difference.

  • Cannot get rid of popping clicking noise when playing music ,HELP! PLEASE

    hi, for perhaps the past few monthes, itunes has been creating loud and obnoxious popping and clicking noises every few seconds while playing music on EVERY song. i know its itunes because i have played songs on other media players and they work fine.ive tried the the QT 7 version of the waveout trick. ive tried uninstalling and reinstalling it numerous times, and trying older versions, however i can't go that far back in versions due to my somewhat new ipod holding me back (which btw, music works fine on that).If it were up to me id go and use a whole other media player but a good amount of my music has been bought or ripped in itunes codec. im out of luck and frankly its driving me crazy, please help.

    Project settings -> Metronome -> Turn off 'click while recording' at the bottom of that page
