How can I get rid of tabbed browsing? I positively hate it and none of the choices in tools get rid of them.

I was using an older version of FF because the newer versions had messed up private browsing and I had the option of deciding if I wanted tabbed browsing. I switched to a newer version because a lot of sites didn't work with the older version.
I went into tools - tabs and checked what I used to use not to get tabbed browsing. Doesn't work.
Please tell me how to get rid of tabbed browsing and how to switch back and forth to private and regular browsing without opening a new tab/window.
If I can't get rid of tabbed browsing I guess I'll muddle along with an older version.

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 <code>#brandLogo {   visibility: hidden; }</code> 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 "do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer"?

I recently installed Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional and every time I open a PDF file that is stored on my computer, I get a pop-up that asks "Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer?". How do I get rid of this? I don't want to change my security settings, I just want to open pdf's without having to go through this step.
I'm using Windows 7.

Thanks for that good idea. I checked the "properties" by right clicking on the AA8 icon and under "compatability" I noticed it had Windows XP (Service Pack 3). Since I'm running Windows 7, I changed it to that and now I don't get that annoying pop-up!

How can I get rid of tab groups (not a button, but the feature itself)? Hate it. Thank you.

I would like to have just tabs without groups, visible all at once, as we had it in previous firefox versions. I don't see any instructions/options. Please help.

To uninstall Ask Toolbar program from your computer,click the Start button, click on Control Panel,the select Uninstall a program. Search and uninstall Ask Toolbar Updater and Ask Toolbar from your computer.
Next you want to uninstall Ask from Firefox:
* At the top of the Firefox window, click the orange Firefox button, then select Add-ons.
* Select the Extensions tab, then remove Ask Toolbar and any other unknown extensions from Mozilla Firefox.
* To reset your search engine and homepage to their default, you can use the SearchReset extension.This add-on is very simple: on installation, it backs up and then resets your search preferences and home page to their default values, and then uninstalls itself. This affects the search bar, URL bar searches, and the home page.
**https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/searchreset/
You can also use [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ ADWCleaner] to get rid of Ask's registry keys.

How do I get rid of 'Do you want to allow the following program..."?

I have recently installed Windows 7 on a new computer and have also installed Dreamweaver MX.
Whenever I open Dreamweaver, it comes up with an annoying message "Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer?"
My question is this - how can I get Windows 7 to recognise Dreamweaver MX so that this message does NOT come up anymore?
Or do I have to upgrade my Dreamweaver to the latest version (probably quite expensive).
To see a screenshot of a similar message, see this thread:

Thank you
As Murray stated, it's been about 8 years. Adobe only allows you to upgrade from the previous 3 versions. Right now they are on CS5 (11) which means you can upgrade from Dreamweaver 8 which is 2 versions after yours. So you would have to buy the full version again. Buying the upgrade is no longer an option.

How do I get rid of an error message that comes up on opening the Photoshop Elements 8 Organizer?

When I double-click on the Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 desktop icon,
an error messsage appears. The title line says:
OWL ORPHANAGE: PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe - System Error
Then the message ;
The program can't start because CoreFoundation.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.
I did deactivate, uninstall, and reinstall the program. Still got this message.
When I click OK the error message flickers, then reappears. I click again, same thing. 3rd click, the message disappears and the Organizer opens.
I can get Elements 8 to open, but why this message first, and is there a way to either download the missing file or just get rid of the message?
I did do a computer search and there is no CoreFoundation.dll on my computer.

How do I get my photos and books after installing new Windows?

I installed a new Windows 7 on an SSD to speed up the desktop computer. The new iTunes, of course, was empty. Now I want to sync my iPad with the new iTunes but I'm afraid that I will loose all my books (freely available ones that I downloaded and imported to the media library as well as work related PDFs).
All the data should be still on the old drive (that still is in the computer) somewhere (so I'm hoping that my problem can be resolved). I was able to find the music but where is all the other data? Can I use a backup made on the old iTunes? Where would I find that?
When connecting the iPad iTunes says that the iPad is tied to another iTunes database (well, yes, but not by my choosing, would have loved to continue using my old one, thank you) and I either can erase everything from my iPad and start with this one or never ever sync again. So, do I choose the rock or the hard place?
This restrictive syncing is a real pain in the neck. Have the same problem when I go out to sea (i.e. without internet connection) and my MacBook Pro. Everything from the iPad is erased and replaced by the MacBook Pro contents. If I forgot to add anything to the MacBook, tough luck.
Anyone who can tell me where to find the documents from iBooks on my old drive and how to get them included in the new system's iTunes?
Syncing across different devices? No such thing in reality. iCloud sounds great but seems useless...
Prieni

You should be able to copy iTunes purchases (which should include PDFs in the iBooks app even though they aren't purchases) off the iPad to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases.
On Windows 7 your backup should be stored under :
\Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
But without restoring onto a device you probably won't be able to make much sense of the backup files.
If you want to copy off photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer
There is also this user tip for recovering your library from a device : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

How do you get rid of tab scrolling?

When opening many many tabs, it starts to scroll tabs. How do you make it so that the tabs get smaller and smaller but all fit on one page?

The prefs browser.tabs.tabMinWidth and browser.tabs.tabMaxWidth are no longer supported in Firefox 4. 
You now need to use code in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/UserChrome.css userChrome.css]

How do i get rid of Claro-Search taking over NEW TAB function?

Claro-Search took over our Firefox settings when opening NEW TAB.
I already took back the general internet search Navigation Bar and default sign on page. But I cannot find out how Claro-Search.com is using the New Tab.

Hi Calrosearch (typo?), it's curious that the images on that page are hosted on babylon.com. Is there a family relationship between Claro search and the often discussed Babylon software?
The video only covers one of the steps on the removal page, so that certainly could be improved.
I noticed in the instructions on this separate page that users might also need to remove a toolbar (using the Firefox Add-ons > Extensions page): http://www.claro-search.com/uninstall.htm
I'm not sure it's fair to characterize the cleanup as "easy." Allow me to summarize:
''On Windows''
(0) Use the Control Panel Add/Remove Programs or Programs and Settings to uninstall the "Browser Manager" program.
''In Firefox''
(1) Check for any unwanted/unknown Extension (e.g., "Claro Toolbar" or "Browser Manager") here and remove it:
(WIN) orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Add-ons > Extensions 
(MAC)(LINUX) Tools > Add-ons > Extensions
(2) To remove any unwanted search engine plugin, click the icon at the left of the search bar and use Manage Search Engines. Then choose your preferred default search engine on the drop-down list.
(3) To reset your home page, use the "Restore to Default" button (if you want the built-in Firefox home page) here:
(WIN) orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > General tab 
(MAC) Firefox > Preferences > General tab 
(LINUX) Edit > Preferences > General tab
If you prefer a different home page, you can paste the URL there or if you are viewing the page(s) you want, you can click the Use Current Pages button to store all tabs in the current window as your home page(s). More info: [[How to set the home page]].
(4) To reset the behavior of the "new tab" you can use these steps:
(A) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(B) In the filter box, type or paste '''newtab''' and pause while the list is filtered
(C) Double-click the '''browser.newtab.url''' preference and enter the desired value:
''(i) Page thumbnails (default)''
browser.newtab.url = about:newtab
''(ii) Blank tab''
browser.newtab.url = about:blank
''(iii) Built-in Firefox home page''
browser.newtab.url = about:home
''(iv) Any other page''
browser.newtab.url = full URL to the page
(5) While you have the about:config tab open, you can filter on '''claro''' and adjust any other relevant settings back to your preferred setting.
(6) If your changes are reverted after your next restart of Firefox, you may also need to edit or delete a settings file in your personal Firefox settings folder (AKA Firefox profile folder).
To access the folder, use:
Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button.
Switch back to Firefox and Exit
Pause while Firefox finishes its cleanup, then rename '''user.js''' to something like user.old (or just delete it).
Restart Firefox and repeat steps (3) - (5) if needed. Hopefully for the last time.
That's a lot to expect from a user who may not even have realized they were installing the product and if they did what that would mean for their browsing experience. I'm sure if this happened to you unexpectedly, you would be aggravated, too.

When I open a new tab a Babylon search page comes up. I just installed foxtab video to MP3 and Audacity 1.3 beta; Babylon must've piggybacked in on 1 of these programs - HOW DO I GET RID OF THIS & RETURN TO BLANK NEW TABS?

All my details are in the question itself - I can't think of any information to add to the above.

If it is a search engine in the search bar, see the [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Search%20bar Search bar] article for details of how to remove a search engine.
If you have the Babylon Toolbar, follow the procedure in the [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Uninstalling%20add-ons Uninstalling add-ons] article, in particular the section on uninstalling extensions and themes
