How do I get rid of an annoying yellow box displaying file data?

Within the last couple of days a yellow box displaying details of any graphic file beneath the cursor has started to appear when I switch spaces. It stays on screen for ten seconds then disappears. Clicking the mouse also removes it. It is very irritating. I recall something like this happening some time ago and was told how to remove it, but don't remember how. I would welcome suggestions.

I'm not seeing anything like that. Did you install anything lately that might be causing that?

  • How do I get rid of the annoying yellow banner saying "some plugins are out of date on this page."

    Since 5/22/12 I have an annoying yellow banner in Firefox (and other web pages) stating that "some plugins are out of date on this page.") How do I get rid of this? I've checked my plugins and I'm fine for my Mac OS (10.4.1).

  • How do i get rid of the annoying wifi connect screen whenever i am in a mall, it pops up even though i have cancelled it many times and revert to 3g

    how do i get rid of the annoying wifi connect screen, even after i have rejected and cancelled using it and revert to 3g?

    Actually just turn off "Ask to join networks". Settings ->  Wi-Fi -> Ask to Join Networks. This way your wi-fi will still work at home or anywhere that you want to use it but you won't get prompted to join unknown networks.

    How do I get rid of the annoying pop up from the adobe trial after I have bought and installed adobe pro?

    This isn't an annoying pop-up. Rather, it is seriously telling you that it doesn't know that you have licensed the software, and it will continue to be a trial, and will stop when the 30 days are up.
    So you must tell it that you have licensed the software.

  • How do I get rid of the ugly yellow that is on Mozilla desk top now? I hate it

    how do I get rid of the ugly yellow on my desk top now with mozilla it is so ugly and annyoying? Can I change the color?

    Mozilla shows snippets on the about:home page to run different campaigns and that changes regularly.
    If you prefer not to see snippets on the about:home page or if there are problems with a snippet then you can set the <b>browser.aboutHomeSnippets.updateUrl</b> pref to an empty string on the <b>about:config</b> page.
    Delete the <b>storage\persistent\moz-safe-about+home</b> folder in the Firefox profile folder with Firefox closed ("3-bar" Firefox menu button > Exit/Quit) to remove snippets stored in IndexedDB and make Firefox use a default snippet set.
    You can reset the browser.aboutHomeSnippets.updateUrl pref via the right-click context menu to the default value to re-enable the snippets and make Firefox recreate the moz-safe-about+home folder.
    Close and restart Firefox after changing the value of the browser.aboutHomeSnippets.updateUrl pref.

  • How do I get the reminders, in list view, to display in date order?

    How do I get the reminders, in list view, to display in date order? I can't seem to get them to display in date order on either my ipad or iphone.
    Yes i know I can look at date view, but i don't like that view. I excepted the list view to display all reminders in date order.
    Thanks!

    You need to create a stringwriter, wrap it in a printwriter, then print to the printwriter, then convert the stringwriter to a string.
    Here's an example:
    StringWriter sw = new java.io.StringWriter();
    PrintWriter pw = new java.io.PrintWriter(sw);
    e.printStackTrace(pw);
    String strError = sw.toString();
    I hope this works. I didn't test the above code. I don't think I'm leaving anything out, but it's been a while since I've done it. Either way, it should get you on the right track to get what you need.
    Hope that helps.

  • How do I get rid of the annoying Improve Images tooltip?

    The improve images tooltip is sooo annoying!
    How do I get rid of it?

    Hi gdav, it depends. If you don't mind having the images compressed and just want to get rid of the messages, you can try to filter or block the script that generates the tooltips. If you want to get the original images, you need to figure out whether you can change the settings in your connection software.
    If you search on the following page for AdBlock, you will see a suggestion for one way to filter the script. Note that each ISP might have a different name and address for its script, so you probably need to take a peek at the source code (Ctrl+u) for a simple page, or a few different pages, to spot the one that's coming from your ISP's server.

  • How do I get rid of the annoying date that shows on my iPhoto screen?

    When I open iPhoto and scrool thru my photos a date overlays part of my screen. When I scroll with arrows the date reflects the roll that is in view. When I scroll with mouse wheel the date does not change at all. How can I get rid of that overlay date?

    The solution of unchecking "Show scrolling information" works, however, it did not work for me until I closed iPhoto and reopened it.

  • How do I get rid of this annoying tag at the end of my wordpress posts: // ![CDATA[ div id="" class="_mp3rocket_overlay_style" style="left: ; top: ; width: ;

    Whenever I post on my blog, this shows up at the bottom:
    <pre><nowiki>// <![CDATA[
    <div id="" class="_mp3rocket_overlay_style" style="left: ; top: ; width: ; height: ">
    // ]]>
    </nowiki></pre>
    How do I get rid of it?

    Does the name mp3rocket ring a bell?? It may be related to a browser add-on. You could check for and possibly disable or remove such an add-on here:
    orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Add-ons
    Try both the Plugins and Extensions categories.
    If it doesn't seem related to an add-on, perhaps it's something added by a Wordpress plugin, or your blog theme. If you provide a link to your blog, a volunteer here could take a look and see whether they get the same text.
