Attempts to rebuild thumbnails did not work. How do I get rid of message "Updating thumbnails" every time I open iPhoto?

After repairing and rebuilding the iPhoto libary/database, I attempted to rebuild the thumbnails on an older Mac Book (10.7.5) and iPhoto 9.0. I believe there was not enough disk space for this function. Now when I open iPhoto, I get the message "Updating thumbnails." I then need to hit "cancel" to open iPhoto, How can I get rid of the "Updating thmbnails" message?

Basically none.
That is the problem
you need a minimum of 10GB of free space just for normal os - with little or none y0u risk damaging yoru iPhoto database and other important system components - you must make space immediately
Exporting photos is not the solution - unless you can delete some large files that are not needed The fastest way is to purchase an external hard drive formatted Mac OS extended and move your iPhtoo library to it -
Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive
I would not put my iphoto library on a flash drive - and usually they are not formated correctly wso will nto even work

How do I get rid of the back-up on Time Machine?

Got rid of a computer, how do I get rid of the back-up on Time Machine (housed on a Time Capsule)? Can I safely just delete the sparsebundle file?

It is much easier, and much faster, to erase the Time Capsule drive if you do not have other backups on the drive.
Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
Click the Time Capsule icon
Click Edit
Click the Disks tab
Click Erase Disk
The Quick Erase option will be fine and will only take a minute or two
If you do not plan to hold onto the Time Capsule use the Zero Out option, which is more secure
If you do have other Time Machine sparsebundle files on the Time Capsule and do not want to erase them, then you will need to manually delete the sparsebundle file that you no longer need.
It will likely take about as long to delete the file as it took to make the first backup.

Every time I open Safari, I get a message (and a pop-up) that says the Safari browser I'm using does not support Community Toolbar. How can I get rid of the Community Toolbar or at least turn it off?

Every time I open Safari, I get a message (and a pop-up) that says the Safari browser I'm using does not support Community Toolbar. How can I get rid of the Community Toolbar or at least turn it off?

That toolbar/ct plugin seems to cause problems for all who install it!
Close Safari, then locate and delete the following files and it should be gone:
/Library/Application Support/Conduit
/Library/InputManagers/CTLoader
/Library/Receipts/ctloader.pkg
/Library/Receipts/<Toolbar name>.pkg
/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/CT2285220.bundle
/Users/<User name>/Library/Application Support/Conduit
where / is the root library on your Hard Disk.
If you are running Snow Leopard you should also look here:
Library/launchAgents/com.conduit.loader.agent.plist
Library/Application support/conduit plugins
Note: Safari does not support any third-party toolbars except those supplied as an extension to Safari via the Extension Gallery.

I purchased a used iphone4 and the phone displays the previous owners apple id and prompts me for the previous owners password. how do i get rid of his info....and install my own apple id number?

I purchased a used iphone4 and the phone displays the previous owners apple id and prompts me for the previous owners password. how do i get rid of his info....and install my own apple id number?

Login to the app store with YOUR ID. You can't use the app store without an Apple ID. If there are apps on the phone that were purchased with the original owners ID, you do NOT own them. The owner had no legal right to give them to you and they are permanently tied to the ID that was used to purchase them.
...i was also allowed to purchase an apple network id for this phone...
I have absolutely NO IDEA what you mean by that. You can not "purchase an apple network id".

How do I get ical to stop popping up every time someone accepts an invitation

How do I get ical to stop popping up every time someone accepts an invitation?
Every time I get an someone accepts and ical invitation, the iCal app pops up over everything on my screen. I cannot find a way to turn off this behavior and it's amazingly disruptive.
I do still want to be notified about up-coming meetings, and I still want invitations emailed to me to populate in my calendar, and I still want ical to capture if people have responded to my events…I just don’t want my calendar to take over my screen every time they do.
There does not seem to be anything in preferences that addresses this.
HELP!

This infuriates me too - I am really keen to find an answer to this! The notifications that appear 'Growl-like' in the top right corner are fine, it's the fact that iCal takes over the entire desktop and prevents me from working that really annoys me! Please, how do I turn that off?

Audio output settings reset themselves on restart to internal speakers. I am getting tired of changing the output every time I turn on the Mac. This is a recent problem.

My sound preference does not retain its output setting on restart. It resets to internal speakers. I'm getting irritated having to change it every time I turn on the Mac. I'm running the latest system software (10.10.2) on an early 2008 Mac Pro with 4 cores and 6 GB of RAM. This was not a problem before Yosemite, and everything else seems to be running fine. Any help appreciated.

How do I get rid of annoying arcade game on new firefox start page?

Most recent update of Firefox plays an annoying arcade-type game on the start page. How can I get rid of it?

Heheh, it's Mozilla being cheerfully quirky on the Firefox page (you are talking about the Mozilla Firefox Start Page or "about:home", right?).
If so, Mozilla will be changing it with another image in the future; I don't know when, though. For now, you have a few options:
* Set Google/Bing/etc. as your homepage so that you won't see the Start Page when Firefox launches.
* Use the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/stylish/?src=userprofile Stylish] extension to remove the image.
'''Using the Stylish Addon''':
# Click the Stylish icon > Write new Style > For this URL (as seen in the first image below)
# Create a style as seen in the second image (you can name it whatever you'd like, but <br> <code>#brandLogo {<br>   visibility: hidden;<br>}</code> <br>must be kept. This makes the arcade game invisible. If you'd like to remove it altogether, swap <code>visibility:hidden;</code> with <code>display:none;</code>.
Save your style. A few weeks later, you can check to see if the arcade game has been removed by Mozilla by disabling the Stylish style on the Start Page. I know it's not a straightforward fix, but it's the best I can do. :)
I hope that helped you!

How do I get rid of annoying popups

My husband uses the IPad to read and play card games. How do we get rid of those annoying pop up ads while he's playing cards. Specifically Hearts and Solitaire. Pop ups will appear when dealing another hand. Sometimes the entire screen goes black except for one tiny little x that we have to click numerous times before the fame comes back. he really gets frustrated and i cant help him. Any suggestions?

I don't play hearts, but I do play Solebon Solitaire. I play the iPhone version on my iPad, but I see that they have a pro version for the iPad.
http://www.solebon.com/
probably didn't buy it cause I already had one. Anyway, lots of games, actually programmed so that you can win every once in a while. I really like it.
For Hearts, I'd look at reviews and ratings. That often gives you an indication if the app is any good or not.

How can I get rid of annoying "Unnamed USB device" messege??

Whenever I boot into OS9.2.2 on my other drive in my dual 500Mhz. G4 I get a usb upgrade messege window:
"Software needed for the USB device "Unnamed device" is not available. Would you like to look for the software on the internet?"
This appears everytime I boot, restart, startup on this drive. I've looked for this "unnamed device" in various places like the extensions folder to delete it but I can't find it anywhere. All of my usb devices are functioning and have been named including my MIDI controller. It would be great if I could get rid of this annoying reminder.......how can I get rid of this???
500mhz. Dual processor (revision B) dual boot Mac OS 9.2.x 1.25gig RAM

I think it's my midi controller. I unplugged iton startup and I didn't get the messege. I've got the right driver installed for it and it's working fine so I don't know why I keep getting the messege. It's annoying to have to answer the question everytime time I startup.

How do I get rid of annoying text at end of yahoo email?

Using Safari and Yahoo email. No signature has been set yet every email ends with a tailing set of characters, one character per line as follows:
Preferences § 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 - = Backspace Tab q w e r t y u i o p [ ] Return capslock a s d f g h j k l ; ' \ shift ` z x c v b n m , . / shift English alt alt Preferences
What is causing this and how can I get rid of it?
I am actually asking for my daughter. This has been going on for a long time and I am stumped. I have gone into both Yahoo email and Safari preferences and can find no reason for this happening.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.
