How do I get rid of a frame round the active window?

Suddenly a frame has appeared around whatever is the current window, including the desktop if no window is open. I have no idea how this happened, how do I get rid of it?

I think you may have Voice Over (accidentally) turned on in the Seeing part of Universal Access Preferences. If so, you can turn it off there, or you can toggle it on/off with command-F5. (In this key combination the former is the "apple key" and the latter is the function key.)

How can I get rid of multiple pictures at the same time?

how can I get rid of multiple pictures at the same time?

Adobe Bridge, lightroom and your file browser (windows explorer or Mac Finder) can select multiple pictures at once and then delete. If you are looking for more than that for information, you will need to be more specific at what your doing, what OS you have, and version of software your using. If necessary post screen shots so we can see what your doing. The more information we have the more detailed of an explaination can can give back to you.

either Select All and drag to the left (turn on the Lock Automation menuItem if you have any automation curves)
or
use the Cycle Region to export the exact length you wish:

How do I get rid of extra space in the toolbar section?

There is a blank space between the Navigation Toolbar and the Tabs. It is the same height as the other Toolbars, and is very annoying. How do I get rid of this space?
I tried pasting in a screenshot to show what I mean, but this form won't accept it.

Sorry thought you had placed them both on the same toolbar.
What you appear to have a a bookmarks toolbar without any bookmarks.
Make sure that you have the check mark present for the bookmarks toolbar
View > Toolbars
Use "Ctrl+B" to bring up the bookmarks in the sidebar.
You should have three major folders "Bookmarks Toolbar", "Bookmarks Menu" and "Unsorted Bookmarks".
If you have no bookmarks or folders in the "Bookmarks Toolbar" that would be one reason for it to be blank, another and the only other one I think is currently possible through Firefox itself is that you don't have the wording "Bookmarks Toolbar Items" in the row when in customize, look for an item marked "Bookmarks" -- there are two such items you don't want the white star on a black background and drop-down, you want the the one with blue symbol on the right hand side -- drag it to the bookmarks toolbar, be careful in dragging you might drop it in the wrong toolbar.
If that doesn't work use the "Restore Default Set" and then you have to re-customize your toolbars (but you placed a picture here that you could work toward).
See picture at http://kb.mozillazine.org/Toolbar_customization_-_Firefox
for during customize with "Bookmarks Toolbar Items" showing on the toolbar.]
My own customizations seen in this picture
* http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/icons/fx4toolbars.png
:are described in the following
You can make Firefox 4.0.1 and '''Firefox 5.0''' look like Firefox 3.6.17, see numbered items 1-10 in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 look like 3.6)]
and most of the major styling changes like color borders around tabs for status, and bookmarks bar with blue folders and red bookmarks are in the styling part items # 41 -45 (46 if you have multiple profiles).

How can I get rid of this totaly useless gbp search window?

How do I get rid of the gbp toolbar home and gbp search box

Any third-party software that doesn't install by drag-and-drop into the Applications folder, and uninstall by drag-and-drop to the Trash, is a system modification.
Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
Here are some general guidelines. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickYourMac.” First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickyourmac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, contact the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickYourMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickYourMac.” If not, open “BrickYourMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button.
You may have to log out or reboot in order to complete an uninstallation.
If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase your boot volume and perform a clean reinstallation of OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" that purport to remove software.

How do I get IE 11 to open in the same window on the task bar?

How do I get IE 11 to open in the same spot on my task bar. i.e. IE 11 is on my task bar. When I open it, it opens in a new place on the end of the task bar. Microsoft Outlook, Windows Explorer, Quicken, Adobe, etc,, all on the task bar open
right at there location on the task bar; not in a new place at the end of the task bar.
How do I get IE 11, Windows 7, 64 bit to open at the same place as the IE icon???
Thanks

Hi,
Seems a strange issue, How about un-pin IE from the taskbar, then re-pin it to the taskbar for a test?
If doesn't work, I suggest you turn off IE 11 in "Turn Windows Features on or off", reboot PC, then re-turn on, check the result again.

How can I get Expose to show only and all active windows, regardless of app

Sometimes I have two applications running with several finder windows hidden on the dock. I'd like to know how I can (or if I can) get Expose to show only the Active windows - not the ones on the dock. With this new upgrade, it seems that all open windows that are on the dock appear in a row at the bottom of the screen, which takes up real estate - can I turn that function off so just the open, undocked windows of all apps show?

Sounds like you opened a message in a new window. Have you tried closing that window and see what happens?
If that is not it maybe you can post a screen shot of what you are seeing.

Is there any way in FireFox to get rid of this stupid, line wasting "feature"?

Thanks for the reply. I should have stated up front that am totally ignorant on programing and customizing stuff.
I don't have a clue how to get to, find or open the file.
I did look through all the selections on the fixfox bar at the very top of the page but didn't see anything called "chrome folder in the user profile folder".
If it's simple for me, the "green horn" to get to please point me in the right direction.
If it's any more complicated I'll just live with it.
But, again thanks for your response.

How do i get rid of black space at the end of a video presentation?

After creating a project in iMovie and burning it onto a DVD, I realized that when the movie was finished, it did not return to the Menu right away and instead it played 20 or so seconds of blackness that I can't seem to get rid of. Has anyone else had this problem? And how do i fix it? I have also checked if my any audio or narration tracks lengths were that long, and none were.
Please help.
MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.10)

In the course of your editing you may inadvertently have left a tiny scrap of audio or video way out at the end of your time line, with a large gap between it and the last clip in your movie. Your movie will play out until it reaches that scrap, leaving a large black gap at the end of the movie. Sometimes these scraps are so tiny that they are difficult to see and can be overlooked in normal view. Expand your time line view to its fullest extent and check to see if you can find such a scrap, left over from editing, and then delete it. It's worth a look, though you may not find anything. That's all I can think of, unless for some reason you have a 20 second long black clip at the end of your movie that you forgot to delete. (Don't laugh--it happened to me once.)
Good luck in resolving your issue.

How can I get rid of multiple versions of the iTunes Folder

I am using Windows 7 and iTunes 12.1.1.4. Multiple iTunes folders have been created on my computer (on both my C: drive and my D: drive under Users and My Documents) and they all have different content. Some albums show up in one instance of the iTunes\iTunes media\music folder and some show up in another. How do I get all the content synched up? Can I simply drag and drop all these iTunes folders into D:\My Documents\My music\iTunes (the D: drive being where I store all my documents and photos) and then delete the rest of the iTunes instances?

Several remedies may apply:
For media files that are correctly linked from your iTunes Library, i.e., they will play without reporting something like this:
you can make sure that everything is contained within your main iTunes folders by selecting File > Library > Organize Library... and when you get this prompt:
check the Consolidate files box and, if not greyed out, the Reorganize files ... box and then click OK. This will move any media files that are in other locations to the folders under the setting in Edit > Preferences > Advanced:
This is the location of your media folder. By default, this will be C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media, where your iTunes database (the iTunes Library.itl file) is stored in C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes. In general that relationship between the database and the media folders should be preserved - in the example above the complete library is stored on a external drive, with the database in K:\iTunes and the media folder location being K:\iTunes\iTunes Media. Note that this setting doesn't tell iTunes where to find media files (that info is embedded in the database); rather, this setting determines where new media is placed within the media folders.
Checking this causes iTunes to automatically place media in folders, and (re)name media files, based on the metadata associated with the files. For music this means that everything will be in folders following the pattern iTunes Media\Music\artist_name\album_title and files to be named using the disc number (if present), track number and song name.
Checking this makes iTunes copy all new media into the media folders, independent of the method of adding it.
Second case ...
For songs that are listed in your library but you do get the "missing file" error, right-click on one of these songs - there will be a "(!)" symbol next to its name, right-click > Get Info. When you get this prompt:
click No (there's a bug in iTunes 12 such that you actually have to click No twice). Then go to the File tab and look for the Location information - sometimes you have to scroll down or expand the editor window to see it. You'll see something like this:
The "file://localhost/" prefix indicates that iTunes can't locate the file. The rest of the entry is the path to the file that iTunes holds in its database, i.e., where iTunes "thinks" the file is. This may be enough of a clue to determine where it actually is - close the editor, right-click > Get Info again, but when you the "... cannot be located ..." prompt click Yes then navigate to and select the correct media file. In many cases iTunes will then be able to adjust its location info for other songs. Otherwise there are a number of techniques that you can use to track down and repair these broken links - often using scripts running against the iTunes database.
... and the third case:
If you have folders that are labeled as "iTunes" but their content doesn't appear in your library within iTunes itself, add these to the library by any of these methods:
select File > Add Folder to Library... then navigate to and select the folder(s) containing the "missing" albums/songs
drag and drop these folders from Windows Explorer into iTunes
copy these folders into iTunes' Automatically Add to iTunes folder
Once you've been through these steps its probably worth running the Consolidate Library process again to make sure everything's in the right place. Once you've checked that to be the case, you can delete any stray "iTunes" folders that are outside the hierarchy rooted in the folder where your database and your standard iTunes Media files are located.
Two final points:
Moving files and folders around yourself never fixes anything in iTunes - in most cases it'll only make things worse by creating (more) broken links
A couple of turingtest2's valuable user tips also apply here:
Make a split library portable describes the optimal layout for an iTunes library, easing the processes of moving it between computers and maintaining a backup of it, as well as the steps needed to bring a library into that shape
Backup your iTunes for Windows library with SyncToy describes a suitable/recommended method to create and maintain a backup ... when you've gone through the effort to make your library just exactly perfect you don't want to lose it all as the result of a virus, hard disc crash, or other fatal failure!

How to get rid of username lists in the Gmail window. I access Gmail with Firefox.

It is a small but annoying problem. I, and sometimes friends, use my Gmail account to check their email. In the username window of Gmail, which I access with Firefox 3.6.9, a list of all past users shows up when I click in the window. I cleared Google cookies, and All history, but the list remains! I can hide the list, but not clear it, if I check 'Form and search history'. But the list is alive and well when I uncheck this option! Is there a way to get rid of the list?
