How do I get rid of the Firefox disc icon on my desktop?

Just updated Firefox... the disk icon shows up on my desktop every time I open the application, as does a window telling me to put Firefox in my applications folder, which I've already done. How can I get rid of these? Thanks!

If you have not tried this already, try this.

How can I get rid of the "Clear Styling' icon from RichTextEditor's history toolbar?

Hi,
I'm a beginner in ADF and using (Jdev release 11.1.1.7). I'm trying to use a RichTextEditor for simple editing work.
I need only the Undo and Redo buttons in the history toolbar.
How can I get rid of the third one (Clear Styling). Should be very easy, but just don't know how to access
the individual toolbar buttons.
Thank you very much..

Every time I start the internet two tabs open, the firefox welcome page and my normal search page. How can I get rid of the firefox tab as I don't want this everytime I open the internet

How can I turn off the Firefox tab before it opens. At the moment everytime I start the Internet two tabs open. I want to turn off the firefox tab before it opens.

Hi davesummers,
You should look at [https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Firefox+has+just+updated+tab+shows+each+time+you+start+Firefox this article about that specific issue] and the article [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved Preferences not saved]. These should give you all the information you need!
If that doesn't work:
# Type about:config in the address bar
# Click ''I'll be careful, I promise'' if prompted
# In the Filter input field type ''startup''
# Double click on startup.homepage_override_url
# Delete the text string and click ''OK''
# Close Firefox and reopen the window to verify that it has worked.
Hopefully this helps!

I updated to 6. In Tools, blocked cookies and now can never open Firefox. The allow cookies window is stuck. How do I get rid of the firefox browser and go back to 5. I did have malware on computer that was removed, but still ...not working

On Saturday, Sept. 3, I updated to Mozilla Firefox 6. I went into the Toolbar, I think to private browsing, but not sure now. I asked that all cookies be blocked. A window came up from my home page that said "Allow, Allow this session only, Deny Cookies." I said Deny and it told me 19 cookies were being blocked. I have never been able to get the window to leave the browser home page. In fact, I can not make any choice in that window. The window kind of shakes. I went for professional help and did have malware that I had not known was there that was removed. Technician worked 3 hours. It was called "PUM.Hijack.Start." The Mozilla browser is still stuck like that. I am on Internet Explorer, but I would like to have Firefox back again. What steps do I take next?

I am having a similar problem. Running Xp.
Latest revision of firefox.
After using firefox for a while if I exit, parent.lock is locked and i have to reboot to reload firefox.
I have killed all firefox applications from task manager (usually there are none). and I have tried 3 different "file unlock" programs including unlocker to no avail.
I also recently installed a program that shows -all- open files, and parent.lock is not listed, and thus not closable/unlockable from there.

How can I get rid of the Firefox icon in the notifications tray? I don't mean just hiding it, I mean disabling or uninstalling it.

It's taking up space and memory, and I don't need it. For me, it's not useful in any way.

Strange, i never saw firefox icon in my notification tray, but to remove the icon do this:
First you need open the Registry Editor:
Go to Start, Execute, type "regedit":

or see this article:
*[http://pcsupport.about.com/od/registry/ht/open-registry-editor.htm How to open Editor Registry]
After...
In the follow window do this way:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\TrayNotify
And in the right side of window delete two files:
*IconStrems
*PastIconsStream

How do I get rid of the menu bar icon on Mac OS?

The Creative Cloud menu bar icon on Mac OS is pretty much useless since I already have icons for all the apps and don't use Adobe Cloud storage. Anyone know how to get it off my menu bar? The menu bar is MY space. I ought to have control over what goes there. If every application starts dumping stuff there it will quickly become a mess. I want the option to turn this off.
Thanks!

Most videos play "inline", not full screen, on Safari on iPad. You can use a quick "reverse pinch" gesture (as if you were zooming in, but more of a quick flick than a slow zoom) on top of the video to make it full screen.

How do I get rid of the downloaded files showing on my desktop?

That is what do I have to do so that my downloads do not show up on the desktop whether they are simple documents or program files? If I put them in the trash it seems to delete them altogether... Any advice will be very welcome as my desktop is almost full of downloaded file icons

It's not good practice to have a desktop full of icons. Is that your default download location? If so, you'd do better to designate a new destination, maybe the Downloads folder on your user account. Or any folder you create.
Each web browser will allow you to select a destination in its preferences.

Updated Firefox, now when I open a new tab, there is two seperate google search bars; how do I get rid of the unnecessary search bar?

I updated Firefox, and after I restarted it, when I opened a new tab, I found that I now had two Google search bars: one next to where you type web addresses, and one right above my pinned sites (or my frequently visited sites). I'm just trying to:
1. Figure out why it is necessary to have two of the pretty much identically useful search bars when I really only need one (or can physically type Google in)
and
2. How do I get rid of the unnecessary second Google search bar above my frequently visited and therefore pinned sites.
If you have any ideas of how to remove this annoying addition, I would appreciate it.

I am guessing that you installed an extension, related to "new tab", which added the first search bar. Firefox 31 in includes a search bar for the "new tab" page; so now you have two.
Take a look at that extension (Options or Preferences) to see how to disable ones of those 2 search bars. Or see if an update has been released for that extension, specifically for Firefox 31, with an option to disable the search bar.

When starting up Firefox 4 I get an error message. After clicking OK it nevertheless runs. How can I get rid off the error message?
The error message is: what happened: Type Error: Components. classes ['@mozilla.org/extensions/manager;1'] is undefined.
It appears all the time already from the beginning after installing Firefox 4.

Thanks a lot. The Ask toolbar created this problem. Another problem is: When searching on the web via Google, normally it is possible to type a few letters and then look what appears and then click on the wanted word(s). A number of word(s) ineed do appear, however it is not possible to select any of them as ws possible as mentioned in olders versions.
