How do I get rid of the Annoying Video from Firefox Flicks that pops up on my homepage?

http://videos.mozilla.org/serv/flux/fxflicks/2012/flicks_squares.webm

Hi,
You can update Firefox and check: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/
If the problem persists you can then Reset Firefox and start afresh.
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
If you have security software (antivirus, firewall etc.) installed, after updating Firefox you may also have to delete all existing instances of Firefox and its related processes/files in all the different configuration modules/areas of the security software like process monitoring, sub/spawned process control, virtualization, HIPS etc., in addition to the security software's main configuration panel. Instead create new fully allowed/trusted rules for Firefox + its related processes in all the different modules/panels - a genuine/original Firefox installer as well as all the installed EXEs (Application) and DLLs (Application extension) are digitally signed by Mozilla Corporation (right-click > Properties > Digital Signatures). Even otherwise, some security software may also ask again when Firefox and/or its sub processes are started, and you may be able to allow/trust at that time. Please see [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Firewalls this].

  • TS1702 I made a request to update an App in my iPad, but I found out that it was not supported. How can I get rid of the annoying number from the App Store now?

    I don' t want to loose my data!!

    As of the current version, I don't believe there is a way to tell the App Store app to ignore updates. You can send Apple feedback at http://www.apple.com/feedback/, but in short there is nothing you can do. As long as you don't try to update the app (either pressing the update button or update all), the app should continue to work fine with your data remaining intact. It has been a while since I've tried to update an app that isn't supported (last time was under iOS 3 or 4), so I can't comment about what would happen if you did try to update it. (My best guess is it will display an alert saying it is not compatible, and leave the previous version there, but not take away the 'update' in the APp Store app updates page).

    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 you get rid of the pending update from app store updates screen?

    I own an 64GB iPad 2+3G. The App Store icon has a red circle with a number 3 in it. That means I have 3 updates pending.
    I tried to download the updates to Pandora and Kindle using 3G at first. It did not work. I assumed it was because it was over 20 MB.
    (I did not try the Vegas Towers one.) I went to the library and it still would not download via their wifi.
    The description of the updates mention the retina display of the new iPad (3). Is that the cause of the download problem? I have already downloaded the iOS 5.1 at the library. Well, it is not that big a deal for me if I don't get the updates. But how do I get rid of the pending updates? How do I get rid of that little red circle? Also, I have not been able to use the Pandora or Kindle apps. They just keep saying waiting. I got boxes that said download failed and offering choice of done or retry. Since nothing happens, I chose done. So, I cannot update my apps, and in the meantime I cannot use the apps because the downloads stalled. I would like to abort the downloads and get rid of the updates from the update screen. I want to be able to use the apps again. Can anyone provide a solution? Thanks!

    Hi Panamark,
    The problem has been resolved for me. I am a little fuzzy on how it got fixed.
    I only have 3G, so I think I went to the library to use wi-fi.
    I think I just deleted the stuck apps, and the downloaded them again. You do not have to pay again when you download a previously purchased app.
    It is now August, and fortunately I have not had any stuck apps lately.
    As you may already know, you cannot download an app over 20 MB via 3G.
    I have the Kindle app also. No new updates lately. I only bought one thing using Kindle. It was a guide to iPad that was only $1.99 or so, but it did not really have anything that cannot be found in normal free Apple guide.
    I have borrowed an ebook from the library using Overdrive app. You can choose the ebook version from Kindle.
    I don't have any weather apps.
    Let me know what happened when you get the chance.

  • 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).

    Sounds similar to this thread from yesterday: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/927963 How do I stop getting the prompt to update plugins? | Firefox Support Forum | Firefox Help]. Do any of the suggestions there help?

  • 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 the iDisk icon from my desktop?

    I just got a new MacBook Pro 17" with the latest version of Snow Leopard. My local hard drive icon was missing but thankfully I figured out how to get that back. However, I also have the blue iDisk icon on my desktop for which I have no use. How do I get rid of that icon? I trying ejecting it (Command-E) but to no avail.
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated,
    Randy

    The same thing happened to me, and I finally found the answer. I thought I'd post in case others had the same problem:
    Snow Leopard has a new setting under System Preferences > MobileMe within the "iDisk" tab: there's a feature now called "iDisk Sync" that lets you create a virtual "DropBox" from your iDisk if this feature is turned on -- disabling it as a internet only drive.
    If you turn this feature off, however, your iDisk will work as expected and allow you to mount / eject it.
    Hope this helps!
