How do I get rid of box around selected finder items?

How do I get rid of this black square box that has appeared on my finder items, and other things on my computer? Currently the black box is around the red x on top of the firefox window. It moves with the programs I have open.
I would upload a screenshot if I could figure out how to do it on this computer.

Open the Universal Access pane of System Preferences, click on Seeing, and turn VoiceOver off.

How do I get rid of icons around Finder's window?

How do I get rid of icons (mere document shortcuts) around Finder's window (in the frame, the grey area). They were not there in the first place, just got there somehow. For example on the left side I have: documents, desktop, applications, movies (there are all good).... and a silly pdf document that shouldn't be there. I can't move it or bin it, it just stays there...
There are also more such icons (shortcuts to documents) across the top of that window: amongst the "View", "Action", "Dropbox" icons (which are all good), there are also shortcuts to pdf documents or folders of documents which were never meant to end up there... How can I clean this up?
Thanks for any info!

How to get rid of box around exported art

I only use illustrator when I need to change something, so I have no idea what I am really doing. I have a logo in illustrator that has been saved as an eps file. When I import that eps file into another program, it comes in with a rectangle around the log that has a white background. Is there any way I can just save the logo without the bounding box? Thanks much!

Sorry to sound stupid but I still don't understand. Maybe if I explain myself better. I have an eps file of a logo which when I open it in illustrator I can ungroup the objects, change the outline or fill of them etc. I have tried exporting it to tif, eps, etc. I then import the file into FrameMaker. When I import it, it comes in as a rectangle. The logo is there, but I want to put the logo on top of a blue box and just have the logo showing. Instead, I get the logo inside of a white box on top of my blue background. How do I export the graphic so all I get are the pieces of the logo without the rectangular box around it? Any help is much appreciated.

How do you get the value of a selected list item?

I have a drop-down list that the user can choose from. How do I get the value of what they selected? I thought I could do this by using the NAME_IN function, but I'm getting FRM-40105 Unable to resolve reference to item X. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
Thanks!

Hi,
You can use an WHEN-LIST-CHANGED trigger, attached to the list-item itself. And, in this trigger, you can use the name of the item to refer its value.
For example:
:block_name.list_item_name

How do I get rid of the very annoying "find" tab that appears on the bottom of the page constantly???

Whenever I try to type "anything anywhere", even after I have clicked on the appropriate place to search, a search box appears on the bottom of the page with a "find" option, and my search goes there instead of the actual place it should go to. Every time I have to X out of that box; and next time I search for something same problem happens.
This is a VERY annoying feature, and I have not been able to disable it. I am not sure why you have created such feature, and what you are trying to accomplish.

You have probably turned on an accessibility feature, if so that is easily turned off again
* Use '''Firefox button -> Options -> Advanced -> |General | accessibility ''' [] Search for text when I start typing
*See

How do I get rid of Windows shares in Finder?

We're a little Mac group sharing an office with loads of PC users and a lot of them send out NETBIOS broadcasts which clutter up our Finder sidebars. Almost all of them seem to have file-shairng turned on...
Does anyone know if there's a way to reject incoming NETBIOS packets on a Leopard machine so that we only see our own OS X servers and not all their PCs?
I'd be really grateful if someone could offer a hint. We want nothing to do with that Windows stuff.
Rgds, /Peter

I have no windows computers on my network at the moment so cannot test this but the common ports for windows sharing are
137 UDP Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) - -
138 UDP NETBIOS Datagram Service
139 TCP Server Message Block (SMB)
445 TCP Microsoft SMB Domain
You could block these ports in your macs firewall but this may prevent you from connecting to windows sharepoints.
If your not familiar with configuring IPFW to configure the firewall then I would suggest you have look at Waterroof

Wiki Server: how to get rid of the "mail" nav menu item

How do I get rid of the "mail" nav menu item at the top right of our Wiki? Our mail server isn't switched on so I wouldn't have expected it to show in the first place.

I solved my issue, and it can probably help with yours too. Sounds like you'll have to enable web archives in order to disable them for individual groups.

How do I get rid of faint white boxes around images?

Some files that I have printed have faint white boxes around images. The images were saved in photoshop with transparent backgrounds that seem to be showing up faintly in the final printed image. Does anyone know how I can get rid of this problem?

signspec,
What happens if you print from Illy?
Your printer (driver) may be overly helpful and performs a bit of colour management all by itself. You may have a look and disable any such management in the printer (driver) options.

How do I get rid of various lines around text boxes when using navigation panes

How can I get rid of these various lines that are displaying sporatically around different text boxes . . . but only when the navigation panel is displaying? I previously had the issue and changed the text box properties to no fill. It fixed the problem in the document with no navigation panel, but once the navigation panel is displayed the lines appear. And yes, I fixed the text box properties before creating the bookmarks for the navigation panel.

Every device, browser and browser version has its idiosyncrasies.
Just using a stroke and a drop shadow should not have been enough to require Muse to convert the page fill to an image. Were/are there also other effects on the page? Are the page corners slightly rounded?
Bevel and Inner Glow definitely require an image to be created. Most other effects/properties do not.

You have the accessibility VoiceOver feature or another one turned on.
Triple click the home button and try going to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn VoiceOver and any other ones off. You may have to use three fingers to scroll the screen to get there. If problems see the following for how to turn off via iTunes:

I have these black boxes around all the images i add. why are they there and how do i get rid of them?

i have black boxes around all the images i bring into pages. why are they there and how can i get rid of them?

Pages rememebers the last setting you used on images.
So if you had a border on the last image the next one you bring in will have one too.
To change that select:
Inspector > Graphic > Stroke > None
Spend a little time exploring the menus and particularly the Toolbar and Inspectors whcih are in reasonably logical progression from big things down to smaller details and clearly labeled.
It is also possible that you have show Layout on which outlines objects on th screen so you can see what's what. To change that:
Menu > View > Hide Layout

How do I get rid of jagged, pixelated halo around type in Dreamweaver?

Dear Dreamweaver Forum,
I am studying the essential series of video tutorials on Dreamweaver CS3 via Lynda.com.
I am also currently, slowly but surely, putting together a website to function as a resume, cover letter and portfolio all in one.
I am currently in the middle of creating headings and images that will function as rollover buttons.
I currently have a problem with a jagged or pixilated halo appearing around type I'm creating in Illustrator CS3 and placing into Dreamweaver CS3.
The process I’m using so far is the following:
In Dreamweaver CS3, I’m using div tags. I will place a div tag on a page. I will then move it to the desired location on the page and size it to my needs.
I then take .gif file of type I created in Illustrator CS3 and drag it from the files panel and to the web page I’m working on. When I do this, I notice a halo around the type (please see inserted image below).
How do I get rid of this jagged or pixilated halo?
I created the type in Illustrator CS3 and then go File > Save for Web and Devices. In the 4-up dialog box that appears, I then save the type as a .gif file.
Please see images below:
Thanks for your help!

How do I get rid of this jagged or pixilated halo?
Don't use transparency! GIF and 8bit PNG only allow one transparent color, resulting in frizzled edges with antialiased content. If you know the type goes on a black background, save it with a black background....
