How do I eliminate a toolbar appears when Firefox boots up?

AOL has horned in and automatically appears when I bring Firefox up. I don't want to give AOL this space. I don't know how to take it out.

You should be able to remove a toolbar that is installed as a Firefox extension by going to the Firefox -> Add-ons -> '''Extensions''' list. See this article for detailed instructions:
* [[Disable or remove Add-ons]]
If the toolbar has taken over your Firefox search or home page, then see:
* [[Remove a toolbar that has taken over your Firefox search or home page]]

    So you started downloading it and it won't finish? Hold the home (circle) and lock (top of phone) buttons at the same time untill a power off slider comes up. Turn off your phone and when you turn it back on it will ask you for your password to restart the download. Click cancel and it should cancel the download.

  • I really would like to know how to totally remove Yahoo toolbar from my Firefox browser as well as my computer. I don't like those special toolbars at all.

    I really would like to know how to totally remove Yahoo toolbar from my Firefox browser as well as my computer. I don't like special toolbars at all. I find it irritating that you included one in the newest version of your browser. In the future I would hope you would leave this or any other out. Firefox used to be my favorite browser to use, now I am not going to want to use it because of the extra toolbar. Please tell me there is a way to remove this, not just hide it.

    You can't move the Yahoo Toolbar from IE to Firefox, they are totally different "behind the scenes". However you can install it, [http://us.toolbar.yahoo.com/ http://us.toolbar.yahoo.com/] and I believe if you log in with your Yahoo account it will sync your data.

    Hi,
    Yes. It is already blank. But the cost element field still not appears when we create activity service. It shows :
    Please specify a valid account assignment
    Message no. SE181
    Diagnosis
    You have entered an account assignment category in the document item for which an account assignment is mandatory.
    All account assignment lines in the service specifications either have been deleted or are inactive (e.g. account assignment lines of a contingency item).
    Procedure
    Please enter an account assignment for the services or value limits.
    The entry of an account assignment is unnecessary if you choose "unknown account assignment" in the document item.

  • How do I eliminate the thumbnail picture when sending email?

    When I am compsing an email there is a small thumbnail pictue of me in the upper right hand corner. How can I eliminate it??
    Also when sending emails they show as coming from me, but when my wife replys to an email they show as coming from her. I would like to have her emails identified with her and mine from me. Can I do that with one account???

    I finally got it, but I had a difficult time figuring out how to remove it from my contact file.
    Concerning email addresses, if I set up a separate email address for my wife will all incoming emails for both addresses automatically download to my Mac and iPad???
    Thanks

  • How do I choose which items appear when I open my Imac for the day?

    How do I choose which items appear on the screen when I open my Imac (intel) for the day, after shutting down the night before? Thank you. ArmandL

    There are two ways. Mt Lion and Lion have a feature that launches all programs that were running when you logged out or shut down. You can toggle this feature on and off when you shutdown/log out. Or you can set up login items in your user settings which will automatically launch any program you set there. To do this launch System Preferences, select Users and Groups and click on the Login Items but near the top part of the dialog. Click on the + button to add programs you want to be launched when you login or start up the computer.

  • Macbook pro.minimize button is inactive. Finder menu bar and dock won't appear when firefox is open. not occuring with safari. have to click on desktop to get Finder menu bar and dock to reappear. think happens after update of something. How do I fix it?

    When i open firefox it opens up full screen (as it always has) but now the minimize button is grey (not yellow) and inactive so i can only open (green button) or close (red button) my firefox window. I can still make it smaller by dragging the bottom right corner but i can't minimize it to my dock or anything. Also, I have my dock set to auto show/hide when i roll my pointer over it. Now, whenever Firefox is open (no matter what size the window is) the Finder menu bar (with the time, battery power, etc) does not show up (which it always has before) and my dock won't auto appear when i roll my pointer over it.

    Can you check this issue on Firefox 9?

  • How do I eliminate unwanted toolbars like Yahoo and AVG?

    Somehow I pressed some keys once and got both Yahoo and AVG toolbars on my computer. I want neither. I have tried to put AVG in the trash, but it is still there. I want to use straight Google for my searches.

    First of all, please update to at least version 3.6.17.
    The reason for this is because there was a security breach at Comodo which is an SSL certificate provider recently whereby a number of fraudulent certificates were inadvertently issued. These allow a hacker to impersonate any site including online banking and the Firefox version you're running at the moment will not warn you that the site is a fake. The fraudulent certificates were blacklisted in v3.6.17 and beyond.
    See: http://blogs.comodo.com/it-security/data-security/the-recent-ra-compromise/
    '''To ensure a clean installation, please follow these steps''':<br><br>
    #Go to [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html Download Firefox v3.6.17] and download it to the desktop.<br><br>
    #Then go to Add/Remove Programs, scroll down to "Mozilla Firefox" and remove it, choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc., (''don't checkmark the box'').<br><br>
    #Then reboot and delete the folder called "Mozilla Firefox" at this location: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox<br><br>
    #Finally run the installation file you downloaded to the desktop earlier.<br>
    '''Your bookmarks, customizations etc., are maintained in a different location and will become available to you again once you complete the installation.'''<br><br>
    To remove toolbars, click Tools, go to Add-ons, then Extensions. You can remove them in there. See also: [http://help.yahoo.com/l/mye/yahoo/toolbar/troubleshootff/toolbar-55.html How to remove the Yahoo Toolbar]
    After you update Firefox please visit the [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/ Plugins Check] page and update where necessary.

  • How do I eliminate the black created when I use fit to page in a iPhoto Book?

    How do I eliminate the black around picture I place with fit to page?

    The area around the photo will be the background color selected for the page.  The only option is to change the background color of the page to one that  would be acceptable (if its a full page layout).
    Another option is to crop the photo to the same size ratio as the frame and not use the fit photo to frame feature.  That's 4:3 for most frames and 1:1.29 for full page 8.5 x 11 book pages.

  • How can I eliminate the spell check in Firefox?

    I do not want to have the spell check active when I use Firefox, how can I eliminate it?

    You want to disable the spell check in forms (e.g., data entry controls like the one I'm typing in right now)? You can do this using the about:config preferences editor.
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the filter box, type or paste '''spell''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Double-click '''layout.spellcheckDefault''' and change it to 0 (''zero'') and click OK.
    You're done, you can close that tab.
    The change should take effect the next time you reload the form.

  • How do you switch iMac 27" display when in Boot Camp (Windows 7)?

    Hello,
    My 27" iMac works great as an external display as long as the iMac is booted into OS X and I hit command-F2. 
    When I boot my iMac into Boot Camp (Windows 7) however, hitting command-F2 doesn't work to use my iMac as an external display.
    Is there any way to get the 27" iMac to enter external display mode if you have booted it into Windows 7 rather than OS X?
    Thanks!

    I have the same problem, 64bit Win7 Home Ed. loaded with all the recent updates including a Bootcamp patch from last week.
    I posted on 9/2/10 and haven't gotten a reply. Did a lot of Google searching but only found it is a problem many have, but that no "real" solution is available.
    Since I have had issues in Win7 after it crashes this way and after on/off (unlike you), I'm not willing to mess with it anymore.
    I doubt Microsoft will commit to fixing this and it's not likely to be a top priority for Apple.
