How do I get rid of "Mail"?  Every time it appears I have to switch to my usual mail server.

This crops up as the default application whenever I attempt to send Email via a website I'm looking at, and I have to copy the address and paste it into my regular Email server (Charter.net).  Can I just delete the application from my hard drive?

Change your default Mail application in Mail's Preferences > General.

No. Mail is a required OS X component.

  • How do i get rid of bing every time i hit "ctrl" + "t"

    Every time when I try to open a new tab
    MS Bing cut in.

    A new tab opens by default as a blank tab (about:blank).
    If that isn't the case then an extension has changed that behavior.
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
    You can open the <b>about:config</b> page via the location bar and do a search for <i>bing</i> via the Filter at the top of the about:config page.<br />
    You can reset all <i>bing</i> related prefs that appear bold (user set) via the right-click context menu to their default values.
    To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />

  • How can I get rid of app upgrades, when I no longer have the app?

    How can I get rid of app upgrades , when I no longer have those particular apps?

    If the app is no longer installed on the iPad then you should get prompts about updates to it in the App Store app - as efectively there is nothing for it to update. If you are being prompted to download updates to them then are you sure that they are no longer on the iPad ?
    If you are being prompted on your computer's iTunes then if you delete them for the App part of you computer's Library then you shouldn't be prompted about them.

  • How do I get rid of Google each time I open firefox?

    How do I get rid of the Google that sits on the page. I think I have the right to deside when I wish to use google - no body else.

    Thanks for the thought - but I probably do not understand. I expect to see "About:blank". If I set that up I get instead "About:home" and even then it seems google is still in the center of the page - and there is even a list of "abouts" to consider.
    I must have a search engine of some sort - I would prefer one that is not doubling up as a statistics collector. I want to be able to get an empty page with the option to put in my search (or address) at the head and not see anything else. Every time I experiment with that need, eventually Google comes back. It used to be like that in the old days....

  • How do I get rid of excessive pop up adds? I have a newer desk top.  When on the internet adds pop up all the time.

    How do I get rid of excessive pop up ads?   When on the internet they always pop up.  I think I have a virus.

    You probably have some kind of adware installed, assuming that your Mac is not actually running OS 9 or earlier (systems that date back to the 90s). I'm assuming that the forum choice was an error, as I doubt such an old system would even be capable of properly displaying modern websites. What version of Mac OS are you actually running? (Go to the Apple menu and choose About This Mac.)
    Assuming you're actually running some version of Mac OS X, see my Adware Removal Guide for help finding and removing the adware.

  • How do I get rid of the grid lines that appeared when I opened my picture in Photoshop?

    So I was going to edit a .jpg file in Photoshop and when I went to place it or open it in the software, it showed me this weird set of lines that sort of make a grid. How do I get rid of them since it overlaps with my picture?

  • How do I get rid of the infuriating button that appears when I am scrolling?

    This button is apparently intended to speed up navigation within a document, website page, or email. In my opinion it appears unexpectedly, often overrides my input and causes me inconvenience. I don't want it, don't where it came from, don't know how to get rid of it. It's just more programmer masturbation, IMHO.

    Do you mean the button to autoscroll the page?
    *Tools > Options > Advanced > General: "Use autoscrolling"
    You get this auto scroll button when you middle-click with the mouse scroll wheel on a web page.

  • How can I get rid of a phantom blank CD appearing in Finder?

    OK, so I'm having trouble with the CD-DVD superdrive in my MacBook pro.
    I can't get it to reliably detect a disk and work with it.
    Copied a Granddaughter's birthday disk mix that I wanted to make copies of for her cousins.
    Had a heck of a time getting the drive to recognize a blank disk.  Couldn't even et it ejected till I restarted holding the Option button till I could press the eject button once the start-up disk selection screen appeared.
    And then I got lucky and was able to burn one copy.
    Inserting the second disk to copy - nothing.
    Got it ejected somehow, but its icon remains in the finder "Untitled CD 2" with the burn icon after it.
    Restarted the computer, the icon reappeared.
    And it's existence is blocking me from doing anything else.
    If I insert a blank CD, it comes up also with the burn icon next to it.
    In iTunes, if I select the music I want to burn, all I can do is export.
    In the finder, it just wants burn either one as a blank disk.

  • How do I get rid of blank pdf windows that appear in mission control? My adobe acrobat program isn't even open.

    Everytime I go into mission control I see blank pdf windows. I can't get rid of them except when I restart my computer. Otherwise I have to put them all into 1 desktop in mission control so they don't clutter my other desktops. The windows only appear in mission control and not in the actual active desktop. I've tried closing any open application that uses pdfs but that doesn't help. Any ideas on what could be causing this?

    Hi Bill,
    I came to the problem this morning with a fresh perspective and have solved the problem: I realized the text was in Cambria, so I changed it to the dependable Times New Roman. I created the PDF and NO pound signs appeared scattered around in the PDF.
    Ay, fonts!
    Thanks for replying, and have a great day!

  • How do I get rid of 6's that mysteriously appear.

    When I enter figures eg. on the calculator on Dashboard, 6's and spaces appear out of nowhere. When I enter 1234567890 what appears is 123 6456 6789. When I multiply by 2 the answer is 246 6913 6578. Please tell me how I can fix this.

    Are they dead or stuck pixels?
    Have you tried the standard fixes:
    - Reset. Nothing will be lost.
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • How can I get rid of a white screen that appears for 3 secs on startup

    Since my last Thunderbird upgrade to 31.3 I get a white screen for 3 seconds during start-up and before I see my folders.
    I use Thunderbird to access one Yahoo.co.uk account and 2 Outlook.com accounts.
    All plugins are disabled.
    I have one extension, CompactHeader 2.0.9 which I removed but the problem remained. I have now reinstalled it.
    I uninstalled and reinstalled Thunderbird - problem just the same.
    If I start in safe mode there is no white screen, it loads normally straight to folders.
    I'm not sure what to try next so any suggestions are welcome.
    Cheers

  • How do i get rid of the white screen that appears?

    When using my ipod the screen will suddenly turn white. I've tried restarting it and plugging into to itunes, but nothing seems to work. Is my ipod bust or is there anything else i can try to fix it?

    You can work through the remaining five 5 R's of troubleshooting.
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
    It might also be a good idea to let the iPod's battery fully drain. Then charge it back up and restore it once more in iTunes.
    Otherwise, it's likely a hardware issue with the iPod's LCD display, meaning you'll need to take or send your iPod in for service either via Apple or a third party repair service. Here is Apple's repair pricing.
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/prices/
    Note that they don't actually repair the device, but exchange it for one of the same generation, model, and capacity.  A third party service will actually replace the damage part for a little less.  Google "iPod screen repair" and you should get a number of results to work with.
