How do I cancel firefox from my laptop

I downloaded firefox but do not want it. how do I get it off of my laptop

Which hardware is on that laptop?
Firefox 3.6.x is still supported with security updates.

If it has a PowerPC processor then for an unofficial Firefox 6 compatible version (TenFourFox) that runs on PowerPC Macs with OS X 10.4.11 or OS X 10.5.8 you can look at:

You can drag the Firefox application to the trash to remove the program.

  • How to I delete firefox from my laptop?

    I want to delete firefox from my laptop. Tried numerous times as instructed to enter "control panel", highlight then click remove. This does nothing. How do I remove?

    What do you intend to on the laptop after deleting Firefox.
    Clean it and give it away.
    Are you trying to upgrade Firefox or never use Firefox on this laptop.
    In addition to Firefox you have your personal settings in your profile, personal settings
    generally should stay when you uninstall Firefox and other other applications, so you have them if you reinstall an application.
    Do you have Firefox on another computer.

  • How do I move Firefox from my laptop screen to my desktop monitor

    My IMac laptop was disconnected from my desktop monitor during a session using Firefox. When the laptop was later reconnected to the desktop monitor, the Firefox window continued to appear on laptop screen and not the desktop monitor screen even though the Firefox icon and toolbar shows on the desktop screen. This problem only affects Firefox and not Safari.

    Install Zune on the laptop if it's a Windows PC or use the Windows Phone Connector on Mac. For Zune see the support page for more information. You can also copy your pictures to SkyDrive and from there access them on  the Phone.

  • How do I stop firefox from automatically placing the cursor in a textbox?

    How do I stop Firefox from automatically placing the cursor in a text box? On certain pages such as Google.com the cursor will be moved to the search text box automatically after a couple seconds from the page loading. So I'll be typing in the address bar or something and then half of what I am typing in the address bar becomes cut off and starts being entered in the Google.com text box for search. The same happens on Facebook.com and the cursor is automatically moved to the Status Update text box. I assume this is a built in "feature" of the web page, but it's damn annoying. Especially when I start typing in my status update box on Facebook before the page completely loads and then halfway through typing (once the page is done loading) my cursor is moved to the starting position of the text area and my text is cut off.
    Just the be clear the actual mouse pointer isn't being moved, just the prompt for entering text.
    How can this be stopped?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Started since I can remember

    This problem has grown worse over the last couple of years. I use Firefox on Mac and Windows. I consider this problem to be a bug. Here's why: Event Driven interfaces, e.g., OSX and Windows, are never supposed to change typing-cursor focus WHILE SOMEONE'S TYPING!!!
    Firefox allows websites to change focus WHILE USERS TYPE!
    Hey, sorry for the caps, but I haven't used those for awhile and that's kind of fun. But really, more and more websites steal typing-cursor focus WHILE USERS TYPE.
    Efff them, but really, Eff Firefox for allowing this.
    It's almost like a symptom of our hyper scattered age where our attention jumps here and there.
    But really... I love Firefox, some of my best friends are Firefox, they're good people, don't get me wrong, but damn it, WHEN SOMEONE IS TYPING THE UNASSAILABLE RULE OF EVENT DRIVEN DESIGN IS NOTHING ELSE SHOULD CHANGE FOCUS WHILE SOMEONE IS TYPING!!!!
    FIX THIS PLEASE.
    Oh, I just ran out of capital letters. :) :) :)

  • How do I stop Firefox from auto-focusing on text boxes?

    How do I stop Firefox from auto-focusing on text boxes? Sometimes as a page is loading, I scroll down the page...only to have the page jump back to where there is a text box, with a blinking cursor, after the page is finished loading. It is an annoying feature and I want to turn it off.

    Some pages use an onload event to set the focus to a text area or search field.
    You can try NoScript to see if that blocks it.

  • I do not want to upgrade to 7.0, I am attending online college and the upgraded version does not work with my school. How can I stop Firefox from upgrading? I have to keep uninstalling the upgrade and installing the old one.

    It's not a good idea to allow websites to redirect to another site until you know for sure the original site is trustworthy.
    But if you still want to do it (again not a good idea).
    Tools>Options>Advanced>General - In Accessibility, uncheck "warn me when web sites try to redirect..." option.

  • How do I transfer itunes from one laptop to another

    How do I transfer itunes from one laptop to another?

    iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music [library] to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527 - a somewhat bewildering and not always easily understandable set of options.
    Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the iTunes Library.itl file in the moved iTunes folder.
    For the record there's this reference for iTunes 11 but it really doesn't strike me as having the specifics you need. iTunes 11 for Mac: Move your library to another computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12168 
    Windows users see tip at: https://discussions.apple.com/message/18879381
    If you put it in the default location of Macintosh HD > Users > *User Name* > Music  (or wherever the equivalent is on Windows) then you don't even need to start with the option key held down, iTunes will automatically look for it there.  (Make sure there isn't anything already in the iTunes folder there that you want to keep since you will be replacing it with the one you are moving.)

  • How do I stop Firefox from playing video after I navigate from the page or leave Firefox?

    Simple and annoying. . Extremely frustrating issue with Firefox for Android. ..
    I watch a YouTube video or any flash video. . And after I hit play, the ONLY way to stop it is to hit pause or let it play to the end or close the tab. .
    It will NOT automatically stop if I open another tab. or if I navigate from Firefox. .
    I feel this is a very basic feature. Did I set something up that was wrong?
    Can I ask two questions?
    I have another extremely annoying and frustrating problem with Firefox for Android.
    The "top" (if you pull down the tabs) search bar DOES NOT allow my stock Samsung keyboard to auto space. . Thus instead of typing
    "How do I stop Firefox from playing video after I navigate from the page or leave Firefox?"
    I'll type in
    "HowdoIstopFirefoxfromplayingvideoafterInavigatefromthepageorleaveFirefox?"
    Unless I manually got the space bar.
    Using a recently factory data reset Samsung Galaxy s4 active.. android 4.2.2 and stock Samsung keyboard ... Firefox 34.0.1
    Thanks in advanced.
    Ps
    I was a hardcore xscope user for years and just recently gave in to Firefox when i lost all my bookmarks due to a forced factory data reset. .

    I'm using a different keyboard which works fine in the most top search bar...
    I cannot believe that it's not a feature.
    What if I was watching a video and wanted to shut it off quickly? I'll have to hit back? Wait for the previous screen to load then hit the power button?
    Please tell me that feature ids soon to come

  • How do I stop Firefox from coming to the front automatically?

    This happens when Firefox is open in the back ground to a web site and I am working in another program in the foreground. If the web site that is open sends me a message (eg., a new email or message from someone), Firefox automatically comes to the front, interrupting whatever I am doing in the other program (eg., Word).

    i have even turned off itunes helper in the log in menu.
    Did you remove iTunes Helper from your Login Items?
    If not, you need to remove it from the Login iTunes. Checking an item in your Login Items list hides the item during startup, it doesn't turn it off or not checking the item doesn't turn it off. You need to remove it from your Login Items list if not removed.

  • How do I stop Firefox from trying to restore session every time I turn on my computer?

    How do I stop Firefox from doing this?

    Make sure that Firefox closes properly and that there isn't a hanging Firefox or plugin-container process left in the task manager.
    Use "Firefox/File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit") to close Firefox if you are currently doing that by clicking the close X on the title bar.
