How do I get rid of the "Do you want the application "Firefox" to accept incoming network connections?" message?

This has started popping up each time I open the firefox app on my mac. I've tried doing a fresh install and approving the app in my firewall. How can I make this go away? I'll need specific instructions - I'm fairly new to the mac.
Thanks in advance.

hello flur, this should be gone in firefox 37 which is going to be released in 2 days. you could also try using firefox beta for the moment: https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/beta/

How do I stop my Mac from asking if I want to allow iTunes to accept incoming network connections?

Every time I open iTunes on my Mac, a drop down box asks me if I "want the application "iTunes.app" to accept incoming network connections?". I always click allow, but it's a pain to have to do this every time.
Does anyone know how I can permanently stop this box from appearing?
Thanks in advance.

I have the same problem with Keynote.
It's already set to accept incoming connections but it still asks whenever it's launched--annoying.
Is there a fix?

I am receiving this message "do you want the application "netsession_mac to accept incoming network connections"

this happened when i signed on today. what does it mean and is it safe to do so? thank you!!

I am having the same problem, seems it's been around for some time under several operating systems (I just upgraded to Lion when it hit me).
I have seen quite a few threads that link to a fix (see here) however that fix requires you to delete components with invalid code-signatures within the iTunes app and warns that iTunes might not work after that. I am convinced that there are some components that are not working properly, I've run the CodeSign test, but just deleting misbehaving components doesn't seem the right wat to fix that! And there is a way to get your own code-signing certificate (here) but this doesn't fix whatever code has been damaed in the first place.
So ... I am heading to my nearest Apple Genius Bar this week to see if they can help get this fixed. I suspect there is some way they can override the "can't delete iTunes" issue and reinstall. I will re-post when I know more.

How do I get dictation I know when I want the word period and not a full stop.

Try the alternatives: "point," "dot," and/or "full stop." Do any of these options produce a period for you? And, as a different punctuation test, does something such as "comma" work for you?

I keep getting a message on startup saying 'Do you want the application "KodakAiOBonjourAgent .app" to accept incoming network connections?' It says settings may be changed in the Firewall pane of Security? Doesn't matter what I click (Deny/Submit).

I keep getting a message on startup saying 'Do you want the application "KodakAiOBonjourAgent .app" to accept incoming network connections?' It says settings may be changed in the Firewall pane of Security but I don't see how. Doesn't matter what I click (Deny/Submit). The message still pops up on starup. I have a Kodak printer and am running Mavericks but I don't think it started when I upgraded.

Just fixed this on my machine, the easiest way to remove this pop-up assuming you are no longer needing that software to print is the following:
Open Finder
Go > Go To Folder...
Type In: "~/Library/Application Support"
Delete All Folders Named Kodak
Open System Preferences
Go to "Security & Privacy"
Click the lock and enter your admin password
Click the Firewall Tab
Go to "Firewall Options..."
Find KodakAiO
Right-click KodakAiOBonjourAgent or equivalent (I forget the exact name)
Click "Show in Finder"
Go Back to a folder and delete the Kodak Folder there.
Remove Kodak from Firewall Options by selecting it and clicking the " - " button the base of the list.
or
Open Finder
Go > Go To Folder...
Type In: "~/Library/Printers"
Delete All Folders Named Kodak
I'm going off memory, so If I forgot something let me know.

Within Muse is it normal to get this message? "Do you want the application "Adobe Muse CC 2014.app" to accept incoming network connections?"

Within Muse is it normal to get this message? "Do you want the application “Adobe Muse CC 2014.app” to accept incoming network connections? Clicking Deny may limit the application’s behavior. This setting can be changed in the Firewall pane of Security & Privacy preferences." I haven't got this one and I use most Adobe products. I updated Muse yesterday. Thanks!

Hi Kay,
I am glad it worked for you. We are always here to assist you. So you really don't have to worry about the issues with Muse

Why is Firefox v36 asking "Do you want the application 'Firefox.app' to accept incoming network connections"? It never did before, so what should I say?

I'm on a Mac OS X 10.6.8 Have just upgraded Firefox from v35 to v36.
Every few minutes I get a message "Do you want the application 'Firefox.app' to accept incoming network connections?" It's never done that before, so why now (v36) and what should I say?
The message goes on, "Clicking Deny may limit the application's behavior. This setting can be changed in the Firewall panel of security preferences." The other option button is Allow.
The computer has always had Firewall switched on. Is Firefox suggesting I now switch Firewall off? What has changed since v35? Has Mozilla offered any information about this?
Thank you.

Hello FredMcD,
I wasn't suggesting they 'ask'. But I believe an entirely new and fundamental message like "Do you want the application 'Firefox.app' to accept incoming network connections?" warrants a few words of clarification.
I'm a fan of Mozilla, my comments are intended to be constructive!

How do I get rid of ZoneAlarm search engine in the address bar and middle-of-page search box?

I downloaded ZoneAlarm firewall. It has you install Chrome and choose its search engine when you download. I'd heard these were easily removed afterward. I reset Google in the upper right search bar.
Now Firefox starts OK, but each time I use a tab to open another window the ZoneAlarm search is in the address bar and the center search box, and Google search is in the upper right search bar. How can I get rid of all ZoneAlarm search everywhere?
I have the latest version of Firefox and Windows 8.1.

You can check if you have the ZoneAlarm search engine file in the browser\searchplugins folder in the Firefox program or in the searchplugins folder in the Firefox profile folder.
You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
You can delete the search.json file and possible search-metadata.json and search.sqlite files in the Firefox profile folder to reset the search engines to the default.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Firefox will rebuild the search.json file from the default search engines in the "browser\searchplugins" folder in the Firefox program and the searchplugins folder in the Firefox profile folder.

HT204266 How do I get rid of recently purchased apps from the app store?

I need to know how to get rid of the recently purchased apps because there are sooooooo many.

First put you're finger and hold down on the app you would like to delete. It and all of the other apps would start to shake like their scared on which app you're going to delete . Tap the "X" on the app you want to get rid of and hit confirm.
Hope this helped!

How do I get rid of it?

The developer of Classic Theme Restorer maintains a support thread over here: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=48&t=2827985
Sorry I can't help you myself, I am still using Firefox 28 while I try to Customize the 29-plus versions without resorting to using CTR. I have tried it, but I prefer doing my own "cobbles" rather than rely upon an extension that "restores" much what I didn't like about Firefox 4.0 thru 28 and overrides what I do like about Australis. IOW, CTR 'fixes' things about 90% opposite of what I would do, if I had the talent to do a "retro extension".
''IMO, the orange Firefox button was the worst thing that Mozilla has ever done to Firefox. The Menu bar worked fine before Firefox 4 came out and still does, it just doesn't have be showing all the time = Compact Menu and its' derivatives over the years was the 'ticket' for me starting from before Firefox was even named Firefox.''

How do i get rid of a double e ine the top left hand corner of my iphone

how do i get rid of the double e in the top left hand corner of my iphone

Over time, all masts will be configured to broadcast the carrier name "EE". In the mean time, some masts will still broadcast the carrier name "Orange". So it is completely normal, especially when on the move, for the carrier name to switch between "EE" and "Orange" as your iPhone switches between masts
