How can i get rid of those infuriating banners just beneath the Search window?

Change your home page to a non-firefox one. If you want google as your home page, do the following: 
#Go to google.com 
#Click the Firefox button, go to Options | Options | General. 
#Make sure it says "Show My Home Page" in the dropdown menu at the top and then click the button called "Use Current Pages". 
I can't think what Mozilla is trying to achieve by displaying that childish junk.

How can I get rid of "History and Bookmarks" section from the search history drop down menu in safari 6.0.2?

Let's just say I have saved bookmarks of things that i do NOT want my friends to see when they use my computer occasionally. I know they could go and find these bookmarks anyway in the bookmarks menu but they dont snoop around my computer. i would rather it not just pop up when they go to search for something or type in a webpage. If there is no way to customize what shows up in the drop down menu for search results then that is something apple overlooked. Not everybody wants things all in one place. Whats the point of deleting search history and website history if its just going to show the certain things you have bookmarked? Any solution to this would be appreciated. One solution i thought would work was disabling search from suggesting, but i guess that only supresses the webpages not the url/search bar. Oh and this is for safari 6.0.2 please dont give me outdated advice.
Thanks

How can I get rid of that irritating contact/favorites across the top of the home screen?

How can I get rid of that irritating contact/favorites across the top of the home screen?

Actually, that's not on the Home screen, it is on the multitasking or App Switcher view so only shows up when you enter that mode (so I'm not to clear as to why it is so "irritating", but whatever).
Settings app > Mail,Contacts,Calendars > scroll down to CONTACTS section] > Show in App Switcher

How can I get rid of that row of icons below the bookmarks, which has Startnow on the left and Twitter on the right?

I sought help among the available articles. I was informed that right clicking on a vacant part of the toolbar would give me the option to delete or hide it. Doesn't seem to work with this one. In fact, right clicking anywhere on this row isn't working. If I right click the "startnow" icon, it takes me to that page. I really don't want this toolbar, as it wastes my desk space. How do I get rid of it?

Do you see that toolbar in View > Toolbars or Firefox > Options if the menu bar is hidden?

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!

How can I get rid of those icons in safari and have a listing of bookmarks as well as the according web addresses

Hi, I just upgraded to Yosemite and have a huge problem.
There are only icons for the bookmarks, however I need the name and the website address in a list view as I cannot handle over 6,000 bookmarks in an icon window... any suggestions?

Hi annmeyercom,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I can understand wanting to organize and arrange your Safari bookmarks in a way that is beneficial to you. There may be a couple of different solutions to this. The attached article explains how you can see your bookmarks using the Show or hide the sidebar button as well as enabling the Favorites bar which is similar to previous versions of Safari.

Have a great day,

How can I get rid of those "partly watched" tags?

Ever since the most recent iTunes update, those annoying "partly watched" icons have been infesting my library.
I say "annoying," because in the case of TV shows, if you don't watch the ending credits to the very end, it ALWAYS comes up "partly watched."
I have searched the help database, and checked out all the menus, and there doesn't appear to be a "Clear tag" option (so I could reset them all to "Watched.")
Ideally, of course, Apple would recognize that a show watched until the end credits start IS "completely watched." This would be relatively easy to program, so I suggest it for the next upgrade.
Even if they do make the fix, though, I am still stuck with hundreds of "partly watched" tags.
This makes the "number of episodes remaining" feature (the number that shows up on the album cover) useless, as there now is no way to see which shows have unwatched episodes short of remembering them and/or clicking the album.
The PC users apparently have a way to select episodes and clear the tags, but if there is a way for Mac users to do this, I haven't been able to find it.
Help!

There is a way to do this.
You will need to click on the episode in question, then right click and select "Mark as watched."
You may also want to command-click on a large number of the same series and then try to do the above.
Hope this helps--
Doc

Ver16.0.2..How can I get rid of an annoying pop up in the lower left of the screen that is difficult to remove. I t began with an update last week.

The pop up appears with every new tab. It has an extremely small delete "X" icon if you can find it...The pop up interferes visually with every tab and must be carefully manually deleted each time. It is always located in the lower left bottom of the screen. It is a window about 3 inches square. It began last week with an automatic download. I want it removed or I will be swiftly returning to Explorer or perhaps Google Chrome...Thanking you in advance

Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer. 
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. 
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

That problem has nothing to do with format settings. It is a burn-in, which is set in the view settings (timeline panel), and also you can deactivate in the render settings.

Please help. How can I get rid of this red dotted border around my navigation bar images?

If you go to my site here...

And left-click and hold down your mouse, but don't release, on any of the navigation button images. Notice the red dotted border? How can I get rid of those?
All images already have border set to 0.

I just noticed your page has no css. so in Code View, replace this closing tag:

with this:
<style type="text/css">
a:active {
outline: none;
</style>

What is "WebWatch" and how can I get rid of it?

What is "WebWatch" and how can I get rid of it? It just showed up on my home computer. It pops up every few minutes while I'm on line and drives me crazy whem I'm trying to work or just read. This is what it looks like. It's in a small box in the middle of the screen with grey over the rest of the screen. I can't do anything until I "x" it away.
