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''': 
#Go to [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html Download Firefox v3.6.17] and download it to the desktop. 
#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''). 
#Then reboot and delete the folder called "Mozilla Firefox" at this location: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox 
#Finally run the installation file you downloaded to the desktop earlier. 
'''Your bookmarks, customizations etc., are maintained in a different location and will become available to you again once you complete the installation.''' 
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.

Websites like yahoo and google taking incredibly long to load

Websites like yahoo and google taking incredibly long to load.

Hi r_saha,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! I understand that when using Safari some specific websites are slow to load. There could be a couple of different steps I would suggest to help you get this resolved. I suggest trig a different DNS service first; the steps can be found in the following article.
Safari 5.0.1 or later: Slow or partial webpage loading, or webpage cannot be found
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3408
Resolution
Your DNS server(s) or your router may be affected by DNS prefetching in Safari 5.0.1 or later.
First, try a different DNS service
Try a different DNS service, such as one of the DNS services below. This will test to see if the root cause of your issue lies with your selected DNS servers.
OpenDNS (http://www.opendns.com/)
Google DNS (http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/)
Or, search the Internet for "Third-party DNS services" for more options and information
For information about how to change DNS settings in Mac OS X, see Editing DNS and search domain settings.
If the issue persists in Safari, return to your original DNS server settings if desired, then continue with the next section.
I hope this helps,
-Joe

Does Firefox have a sidbar with a clock, weather and more add ons like yahoo and Google?

Does Firefox have a Sidebar like Yahoo and Google that displays a clock, weather, ebay and other add ons?

Looks like my post ended up in the wrong thread as it doesn't seem to be related to your question (looks like one about multiple Master Password pop-ups), sorry about that.
Firefox should save the download location as part of the data of each downloaded file in downloads.sqlite, but I do not think that there is a user interface to make that data visible.
The SQLite Manager shows that data in the Target field.

How do I eliminate Joobars toolbar?

I don't know where this toolbar came from and I don't want it. It has a bunch of football site links and other stuff that must have been loaded when I tried to logon to a live streaming football site without my knowledge of what was being added. It just takes space and I'm not going to use any of the links.

Toolbars are usually installed as '''''extensions'''''. See this KB article.

How do I make the print in yahoo and comcast e-mail much larger--it is so small it is unreadable

The print in my e-mails at Yahoo and Comcast is so small that it is unreadable. I need to know how to make the print larger. There must be some way to do it. It wasn't always like this.

Use the scroll down /up wheel on your mouse while pressing the ctrl key. That worked for me.

HT1296 How do I transfer itunes information like music and contacts on my work computer to my personal laptop?

I'm moving job locations and need to transfer my itunes information on my work PC like contacts and music, etc, to my personal laptop to continue using itunes there exclusively. When I try to sync my iphone to my laptop a message says everything on my iphone will be erased. Is there a way to accomplish what I want to do without erasing all my stored information?

Copy all of the iTunes folder from your computer to a storage device, i.e. USB drive, etc. Copy that information to the new computer. Once you connect the phone ot the new computer and go to sync, it will warn you that you are synced to a different library. Since you have the content there, it will erase it but then sync it back. When it comes to your contacts and calendar, you will need to make sure you have a supported application on the laptop you want to use, such as Outlook, Address book. If it is the first time that you have synced to the laptop, then make sure whatever program that you use for calendars and contacts, you have a unique appointment and contact so it will trigger the merge command so you do not lose your current contacts and calendar.

How do I eliminate unwanted objects in shot?

Hi all,
I have a tracking shot I want to utilize, but have to truncate this due to the fact that there is an unwanted reflection of a crew member in the chrome frame of the set table. Is the use of masks the most obvious solution to this problem and does this have to be implimented frame by frame? Any tips on ensuring the removal of these objects are seamless? Thank you in advance for any help?
Ibook 1.2, 512 Meg, Lacie D2 250 gig Ext drive, FC 4.5 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

I'm thinking that aftereffects has a motion tracker that can track a spot on the video where your unwanted object is, without seeing your footage, but making an assumption that a shinny mirror like surface was in fact what you had the reflection on, you could use the motion tracker to track the reflection and add a little blur and then a little tint possible to match the frames color;
This would avoid the need for you to manually track the reflection, Motion tracking has flows in the way it devolopes keyframes, which will mean you will have the tweak the keyframs to get a smooth motion if the reflection is moving in the video frame;
However this could speed up your results.
I used motion tracking before when I worked on a PC, mostly to overlay new video onto something like a TV image, or to add animation to follow someones hand that sort of stuff. I never used it to remove an object, however if a little blur fixes the issue, and all you have to do is decided where on each frame to add the blur, motion tracking would likly be a big help;
After effects Pro is what includes motion tracking:
http://www.adobe.com/products/aftereffects/matrix.html
I hope this at least give you an idea of how to start, or triggers some thought from others...
p.s. you dont have to use the motion tracking data for a blur, you can use several points and have a mask created for you, or even use that data to clone from another video - once you have the data, you can generally be very creative with how you use that data in your footage.

How do I create a Toolbar like Windows Explorers allows you to set up

I want to install Google toolbar as well as some others like Crawler Toolbar. Is there anyway of doing this in Safari

HI and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
Click Safari/Preferences. In the General tab, click the pop up menu where you see:
Default search engine and select Google.
If the Google search bar isn't visible, open the Safari Preferences window again and click:
Customize Toolbar. Simply drag the Toolbar up to just the right side of the Address Bar.

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]]

How do I eliminate unwanted DNS?

For some time I have used Open DNS on my airport extreme network, now I don't seem to be able to get them out of my network configuration: I can add new DNS, but I cannot delete the old Open DNS because they are greyed out in my network airport dns panel. Open DNS are seemingly slowing down my connection, so I would like to remove them. Is there a way to get rid of them?
Thank you!

You most likely set them up on your Router. You need to enter your router configuration and remove them from there.

How can I eliminate unwanted horizontal scroll bars from certain pages on my site?

A few pages on my website have a horizontal scroll bar at the bottom of the browser. I have several other pages in the exact same format and none of them have the horizontal scroll. No elements are off the edge of the page or anything. I'm a designer and don't know code, which is why I'm using Muse, but all the forums I've checked so far give coding solutions that I don't understand or know how to apply to my Muse site. Anyone have any suggestions?

Can you post a URL for your site? (You could publish a free temporary site on Adobe Business Catalyst and provide the URL.)
Other than the page being wider than the browser window or there being content that's outside the page bounds, I don't know what else to tell you to look for. If you provide a URL, we can probably detect what's causing the horizontal scrollbar and let you know what needs to change.
