How can I turn off related search window, it keeps popping up on the left side of my screen when I refresh? This is very annoying

This is very annoying, whenever I refresh a site, a window pops up on the left side of my screen of related searches, I want to turn this OFF

'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu by clicking on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item:<br>

If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.
Thank you.

  • How do I stop the side bar from popping up in the left side of my screen when I click on a bookmark on my tool bar?

    I just got a new laptop, and redownloaded mozilla as my browser. I've set up my tool bar tabs but when I click them they only appear on the left side bar when I click them. This didn't happen before on my previous laptop, so I'm confused on how to get it to stop opening the sidebar when I click them, and have them instead appear in my main window.

    Opening in the sidebar is the default for bookmarks that are created via a link or button on a website.
    You can check the properties of a bookmark via the right-click context menu in the sidebar (Ctrl+B; Command+B on Mac).
    In the Bookmarks Manager (Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks) you can click the More button in the Details pane at the bottom right.
    Make sure that "Load this bookmark in the sidebar" is not selected.

  • How can i turn off library sharing remotely because i cant remember all the computers or systems

    I want to be able to add my new computer to my library sharing however it will not let me. It says i already have 5 computers on the system. My question is as i said, how if possible can I turn off the connection to the other computers?

    This isssue is about authorisation rather than home sharing.
    You can't de-authorise just the computers you no longer have access to.
    Your only option is to de-authorise all your computers and then re-authorise those you wish to be authorised. You can do this by logging into your account settings in iTunes on your computer (Store > View My ID) and selecting the option to de-authorise all.
    Please note however, you are only permitted to do this once in each 12 month period, therefore you would be better de-authorising your computers before you lose access to them. you can do this from the 'Store' menu in iTunes.

  • How can I turn off Spotlight search on the iPhone6?

    I know how to switch off various search options but I want the whole Spotlight search facility disabled. The iPhone 6 is so big that whenever I am swiping between screens I manage to activate the Spotlight search screen. I want it disabled

    To the best of my knowledge, you can't disable it. You can go to Settings>Spotlight Search and uncheck all of the boxes this way if you pull it down, you can't accidentally click anything. Other than that you can't do it without jailbreaking. Hope this helps.

  • How can I turn off instant search in History?

    When I use the search function of History to find an old page, it significantly slows down my computer since the instant search feature is on (like Google instant). Most of the time, Firefox just freezes for a few seconds. So, how do I disable this annoying feature in Firefox History?

    To the best of my knowledge, you can't disable it. You can go to Settings>Spotlight Search and uncheck all of the boxes this way if you pull it down, you can't accidentally click anything. Other than that you can't do it without jailbreaking. Hope this helps.

  • How can I turn off restoring all windows on restart?

    Lion restores all my windows and applications when it restarts my computer.  Is there any way to turn that feature off?

    This "feature" is really annoying.  For years I have set my computer to shut down around midnight and then start itself up again at 6:00 AM.  It's a habit, I guess.  I just don't like waking up to a mess of opened applications and half-read browser articles.  Makes me crazy.  I also really don't like opening Word or Excel to the last few documents or spreadsheets I last worked on.  I don't understand why Apple thought this was a good idea.  Does anybody know any code to turn these "features" off?

  • How can I turn off Recently Websites when opening new Safari window? After tapping on the two overlapping boxes on the bottom right of Safari, a new blank window appears with Favorites, but now in iOS 8, recently viewed websites are listed.

    How can I turn off Recently Visited Websites when opening new Safari window?
    After tapping on the two overlapping boxes on the bottom right of Safari, a new blank window appears with Favorites, but now in iOS 8, recently viewed websites are listed. How can I turn this function off? I do NOT want my new Safari windows to have history displayed of previous websites I visited. I only want my Favorites (on the top) to be displayed. Please help.
    Thank you for your time, patience, understanding, kindness, and concern.

    Thanks for replying, but that isn't the answer I am looking for.  Also, there is no + sign, UNLESS you do tap the overlapping boxes.
    Let me try to ask my question a little more clearly:
    When I tap the two overlapping boxes on the lower left (the option to Open New Windows), the new Window that appears will show your Bookmarked FAVORITES. But with my new iPhone 6, and the new iOS 8.0.2, when I tap the two boxes to open a New Window, my Bookmark Favorites show (as they always have and should), but below them, there is a dividing line underneath them, and it says Recently Viewed Websites, and has these websites available to tap.
    So my question is, HOW DO I TURN THESE OPTION OFF?
    *UPDATE  (10.13.14): Since I have asked this question, I no longer see these Recently Viewed Websites under my Bookmarked Favorites in my new Window tabs. So I hope that Apple fixed it, or somehow it was a mistake, or somehow I changed an Option on my iPhone 6 that stopped this for reoccurring.
    Thank you for your help bobseufert! I appreciate your concern, kindness, and the time to try to help. I am grateful.
    Have a blessed day.

  • How can I turn off that Maveriks at iMac is scanning continuously for new devices?

    Hi, I have a iMac (early 2008) updatet to 10.9 Maveriks with Bluetooth mouse, mousepad en keyboard. I listen at home to music with a Onkyo TX-NR626 A/V receiver (with Bluetooth) via my iMac, iPad and android device.
    When I startup or wake up my iMac, Maveriks is always staring to scan for new Bluetooth devices?!. Than every time, my receiver (also when the receiver is turned off) is turning on and change to Bluetooth mode.
    I can't turn off the Bluetooth function at my Onkyo TX-NR626 A/V receiver. With Mountain Lion, I didn't had this problems.
    I want to turn of the continuously scanning procedure after startup or wake up on my iMac.
    My question is:
    How can I turn off that Maveriks is scanning continuously for new devices?

    Kinda funny... I found this article while searching for an answer to my question:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93610
    At the very end of the article, it mentions the "bug" that only one app on Windows can play direct sound at a time. That's exactly the "feature" I'm looking for on the Mac. Funny how one person's bug is another's feature.

  • How can I turn off the yellow pop-up tool tips?

    Howdy,
    I have searched high and low in the preferences and found nothing that does the trick. How can I turn off the yellow pop-up tool tips?
    See attached screen shot. They are incredibly annoying. It's probably obvious, but I cannot find it anywhere on internets or this forum.
    Thanks!

    Thanks Nancy. Unfortunately that doesn't do it. I turned those off awhile back. Nor can I find anything under VIEW that seems to make a difference.  Just FYI: I'm on a Mac OS w/Dreamweaver CS6 - but this has happened on previous versions of DW. Thanks again.

  • How can I turn off sound controll whele on the Satellite A200

    How can I turn off the external sound controll in front of laptop - the wheel? It does not work, sound volume is permanently muted.
    OS: MS Windows XP
    Thanks

    Thank you Jaba,
    it is Toshiba Satellite A200 Series. Drivers, its configuration and configuration of operating system is OK. The wheel is mechanical damaged, so that is the point. I have to disable its function in operating system. But where can I disable it? I have tried to uninstall Toshiba utilities (controls, hotkeys), reinstall drivers. I have tried to find an option in BIOS, there was no one.
    btw: I am a linux administrator, but I have advanced knowledge of windows systems so you can be short.
