How do I eliminate searchqu from being my homepage?

How do I eliminate searchqu from being my homepage? It defies all attempts of mine to get rid of it - uninstall, etc. I think it came with a download called iLivid which is a load of crap by the way.

i would do a malware bytes scan to remove all spyware as this is sometime the culprit
Perform virus scan as well to be sure
use the free version

How do I eliminate doubles from my iPhoto library?

how do I eliminate doubles from my iPhoto library?

These applications will identify and help remove duplicate photos from an iPhoto Library:
iPhoto Library Manager - $29.95
PhotoSweeper - $9.95 - This app can search by comparing the image's bitmaps or histograms thus finding duplicates with different file names and dates.
Duplicate Annihilator - $7.95 - only app able to detect duplicate thumbnail files or faces files when an iPhoto 8 or earlier library has been imported the library.
DeCloner - $19.95 - can find duplicates in iPhoto Libraries or in folders on the HD.
DupliFinder - $7 - shows which events the photos are in.
iPhoto AppleScript to Remove Duplicates - Free
PhotoDedupo - $4.99 (App Store) - this app has a "similar" search feature which is like PhotoSweeper's bitmap comparison. It found all duplicates
Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto - free - was able to recognize the duplicated HDR and normal files from an iPhone shooting in HDR
Some users have reported that PhotoSweeper did the best in finding all of the dups in their library: iphoto has duplicated many photos, how...: Apple Support Communities.
If you have an iPhone and have it set to keep the normal photo when shooting HDR photos the two image files that are created will be duplicates in a manner of speaking (same image) but there are only twp apps that detected the iPhone HDR and normal photos as being duplicates: PhotoSweeper and Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto. None of the other apps detected those two files as being duplicates as they look for file name as well as other attributes and the two files from the iPhone have different file names.
iPLM, however, is the best all around iPhoto utility as it can do so much more than just find duplicates. IMO it's a must have tool if using iPhoto.

I receive numerous messages in "Bulk Mail". Where do they come from and how can I prevent them from being received? Thanks

Once you're on a spammer's list, there's nothing you can do to stop the flood of e-mail messages. You can either control it, using spam filtering (which is what files those messages in the Junk Mail folder), or you can throw out your e-mail address and get a new one.
It's sad, but spam is simply a fact of life at this point, and there's nothing to be done about it. Legislation has been tried, with zero success, since most spam either comes from countries with no legislation or from personal computers that have been infected with malware and are part of a "botnet."

How do I keep emails from being deleted on my iPhone 6? Emails get deleted from phone when I startup desktop computer and they are downloaded from sever. Is POP3 no longer supported on IOS 8.1?

How do I keep emails from being deleted on my iPhone 6? Emails get deleted from phone when I startup desktop computer and they are downloaded from sever. Is POP3 no longer supported on IOS 8.1?

Have you seen this?
Using a POP account with more than one device - Apple Support
A better solution is if your email provider uses IMAP. IMAP sync email folders between multiple devices. Meaning any device will receive the email, all sent email can be seen on the devices. If you delete email from one device the email is deleted from all the other devices. Check with your email provider to see if they offer IMAP services.
If they do not your choices are to 1) configure email on the PC to keep Mail on the mail server or 2) change email providers to something like Gmail or Outlook.com (as examples). FWIW I use Cox IMAP email and fully sync email between a Win 8.1 Update 1 laptop, a Win 7 desktop, an iPad 4, an iPhone 4 and an iPhone 5S.

How to stop the Dialog from being dragged

I was hoping that someone could tell me when calling a Dialog from Jframe, a how to stop the Dialog from being dragged
while a dialog is showing.
When it is visible I can still click and drag the Dialog
I want to set it so you can not drag it until the dialog has be closed.

If you don't have access to the parent frame, a "hack" that usually works:
Frame frame = Frame.getFrames()[0];
if (null != frame && frame instanceof JFrame){
JFrame jf = (JFrame)frame;
JDialog jd = new JDialog(jf, "title");
... code here ...
As each JFrame (or Frame) is opened, its stored in the array of Frames that you can get. Same thing with Dialog.getDialogs(). Almost always, at least so far for me I've never had this problem, the [0] index is the main window opened, or the parent/top frame. I'd put the check in there to be safe and make sure its a JFrame and usually you'll only have the one JFrame.

There's nothing at all you can do to stop a PDF from being copied, emailed, put in a USB stick, uploaded to DropBox, or shared in any other way. DRM ($$$$) can make it so that unauthorized copies cannot be opened.

How to stop volume icon from being displayed randomly

How to stop volume icon from being displayed randomly

Thanks for the quick response.
I have a number of slides which act as a training module. The quiz follows this. All the answers to the quiz are in the module slides. I'd like the user to be able to see which questions they're failing on, but not be shown the answers, as, if they are failing the quiz, the whole module needs to be reviewed and the test retaken.
If this isn't possible, I'll probably just remove the review option, thereby meaning my retake button can stay, and the user can just go back and re-read the module slides to learn the answers.
Thanks

How can I STOP Firefox from being a glutton with my virtual memory?

How can I STOP Firefox from being a glutton with my virtual memory?

Yes. But, I see from the THOUSANDS of responses here concerning Firefox memory issues that other people have had no more success than I have at trying to STOP Firefox's memory gluttony. The fact that Firefox runs fine (like the good old days) for a while after re-booting and registry cleaning shows that something is going on beyond the trivial/ineffective suggestions offered in the referenced links.
Having to re-boot several times a day to get Firefox out of the molasses is such a pain, that it's no wonder people are going back to IE, or like me, reluctantly relying more and more on Google Chrome.

How do I stop texts from being seen on multiple devices on the same iTunes account

I just updated my iphone 4s to ios 6 and now my texts are being viewed on another iphone connected to the same itunes account. How do I stop this from happening??

Go into Settings -> Messages -> Send & Receive on the devices that your would not like to get your text messages to.
Then remove the email addresses that you would not like to be reached on, especially the one that is the same as your Apple ID.
Just leave the phone number there, and then the text messages should only appear on your iPhone 4s.

How to prevent ipad apps from being stored in the iCloud and how to bring them back to the iPad

I have an iPad Mini Retina with 128GB of storage. I purchased about a dozen apps and it gets stored in the iCloud and I don't know how to access them on the cloud storage. Plus I have many apps from me itouch that I use and they are also stored on the iCloud.
How can I prevent further apps that I buy from gettting transfer to the iCloud?
How can I download my existing apps that I purchase and that are from my itouch that are stored in the iCloud into my iPad?
How do I access my iCloud storage from my iPad?
Thanks.

You make it sound like apps are disappearing from your iPad and uploading to iCloud. That's not how it works. Maybe somebody (or you) deleted the apps and you don't realize it.
You cannot prevent apps from being stored in iCloud. That is one of the reasons for using iCloud. It will store all of your purchased apps and you will be able to download them if you delete them, or if you buy another device that you want to use the apps on.
If you have apps that are in iCloud, just go to the Purchased Tab in the app store, tap on the Not on this iPad button at the top. Look for any of the apps that you want to download and then tap the cloud icon in order to download them to the iPad. You access your iCloud storage in the purchased tabs of the different stores or in the apps themselves. Any data that is being backed up in iCloud is on the device in the corresponding apps and you don't need to access that data in iCloud. It's at your fingertips already,
Purchased apps do NOT count against your iCloud storage. If you have 60GB of apps, they do not take up the alloted 5GB of free storage that you get. The app data would count against the storage but not the apps themselves.

How do i prevent history from being cleared? prevent privacy browsing?

How do I prevent privacy browsing and/ or prevent history from being deleted from son's computer?

Note that removing or disabling "Private Browsing" will not make it impossible to delete private data like visited websites (history) or cache.
There are a lot of ways to clear such data, either via [[Clear Recent History]] or directly by deleting the History in the Library or sidebar.
Private Browsing makes it easier because all data is kept in memory and nothing is saved to disk, so nothing needs to be removed.
If you want to see which sites have been visited then you should look at others means outside Firefox like a router or firewall with a password protected logging feature that can't be bypassed or a program like [http://www.wireshark.org/download.html Wireshark].
