AOL says it's your browser that is causing this, not AOL and it makes AOL pretty useless to use on Firefox. Much easier to use Windows Explorer. Can you get rid of this "browse or add plug in" bar? How do I get around this? Using Firefox on a Windows Vista operating system.
Opening in the sidebar is the default for bookmarks that are created via a link or button on a website.
You can check the properties of a bookmark via the right-click context menu in the sidebar (Ctrl+B; Command+B on Mac).
In the Bookmarks Manager (Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks) you can click the More button in the Details pane at the bottom right.
Make sure that "Load this bookmark in the sidebar" is not selected. -
Whenever I post on my blog, this shows up at the bottom:
<pre><nowiki>// <![CDATA[
<div id="" class="_mp3rocket_overlay_style" style="left: ; top: ; width: ; height: ">
// ]]>
</nowiki></pre>
How do I get rid of it?Does the name mp3rocket ring a bell?? It may be related to a browser add-on. You could check for and possibly disable or remove such an add-on here:
orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Add-ons
Try both the Plugins and Extensions categories.
If it doesn't seem related to an add-on, perhaps it's something added by a Wordpress plugin, or your blog theme. If you provide a link to your blog, a volunteer here could take a look and see whether they get the same text. -
How do i get rid of this annoying blank space?
I'm using Pages '09 v4.03 on a Mac with OSX 10.9.1 on a MacBook Pro.
Many of the documents I use on a daily basis are created by others, and I don't know what they're doing to make this annoying blank space appear on my documents. The screenshot below shows the irritating area in the oval. My view is set to page width.
Wierd thing is...when I go to fullscreen mode, that gray bar is still there! It's something about the page width setting, perhaps?
How can I only view the document? Help!
Oops! forgot to attach screenshot!

How to finally get rid of those annoying little plus sign boxes in a table
Hello everyone!
Pages treat table cells as a _*TEXT BOX*_
If those +*annoying little plus sign boxes*+ are popping up, do this to get rid of them:
1. Open Inspector
2. _*Select all*_ on your table
3. Click on T
4. Click TEXT
5. GO to _*INSET MARGIN*_ and SLIDE until the little plus sign boxes disappear.
FINALLY the boxes are gone!Hej Fruhulda
Obviously you are one of the fortunate ones who has never had to deal with the dreaded little box with an X in it!
All of us here were seeing it all the time up until yesterday and it was driving us CRAZY!!
Imagine this:
You are trying to get some work done in Pages
In a table
You add some text to a cell
Then you find out that you have to make the table smaller because
suddenly you have to insert another table on the page
As you are making the table smaller
AHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Inside the cell with the text *a little box with an X in it appears* and will not go away.
If you are working with MANY cells in a table
You are looking at A LOT OF LITTLE BOXES with X's in them.
Suddenly you feel *SEA SICK* looking at all those little boxes
You read the entire iWork Manual line by line BUT cannot find anything to HELP
Your project is not a numbers candidate
You have been a mac user for YEARS and YEARS
You know your macs, you know your mac issues
WHAT TO DO
I am sure you can see the dilemma we were in!
Then all of us realized that this is similiar to a text box issue and cell padding issue from our Adobe CS suite programs and sure enough it WAS!!
That is basically the problem ALL of US were having.
So if our solution can help anyone - *WE ARE GLAD*
because they were probably getting *SEA SICK TOO* trying to get some work done
Thank your lucky stars you did not ever have this issue pop up on a deadline!!
Have a great day
( I miss my Östermalmstorg FIKA in the afternoon)

How do I get rid of this annoying message that now pops up?
I just answered my own question. But seriously, "You are using an unsupport browser that verizon.com does not support"???
Solved!
Go to Solution."I agree that the wording could be better. Odds are the code was written by someone that does not have english as a first language. The message *does* have to stay present until the browser is fixed, though. Otherwise people would dismiss it, then complain that some feature wasn't working. When someone said they were using an unsupported browser, they would further complain that there was no message telling them so. (As is, there are still people that scroll past the message without seeing it and still complain.)" --- Personally, I would just come back to that message later if I could close it out and honestly, I think leaving it there like a permanent fixture is really unncessary. It comes up right on top of your screen and pushes everything way down to the bottom so there is no way you can miss it. And it doesn't have to be done in such an annoying way that the message will be stuck to the top of your browser until you get the upgrade. That's ridiculous. If it just came up as a pop up message that comes on whenever you open your browser, that would still make the point just the same and wouldn't encourage me to dismiss it. Sure you have people out there with no common sense but a lot of us do. Some people are just going to complain no matter what and that's always a given.
No, issues more important to the customer. The error is worded poorly, but gets the point across. The list of supported browsers is easily accessible. The more important issues I was referring to are things like being unable to delete email or pay the Verizon bill that many people are experiencing. (Not me, personally, but then I don't get the unsupported browser message, either.) If there's coding work to be done, I vote they address the serious, service-impacting issues before they work on minor annoyances.----The error gets the point across? Not really in my opinion. Yes, you can click on supported browsers but going from saying that your browser itself is unsupported to saying that you just need an updated version of the browser is really taking the customer for a loop. I know that took me for a loop because I think that's saying two completely different things. And yes of course, email issues or paying a bill on line are important as well but I think this is just as important regardless because when there is an accumulation of messages that are communicated poorly in addition to the run around and wait time and being put on hold when calling customer service, that can really be the tipping point for a customer who has just about had it and is ready to switch to another provider. All of these providers should be taking these steps to better service the customer and to me personally, this is no different and what may be minor to a corporation is often a bigger deal to the customer dealing with it.
And how hard is it to revise the wording on an error message like that? Give me a break. For something simple that can encourage more customers to keep their service, isn't that worth it? Verizon has yet to prove to me that it cares about investing in better customer service and better communication.
I have never heard of any other provider which has its error messages worded like that taking the whole thing out of context. My services are working fine but believe me, if I had to start all over again, i.e. move to a new residence, I would not go back to Fios. There may even come a point later on where I will need to switch even while staying where I live now. Time will tell. I often don't have the luxury of wasting more time than what's necessary to resolve a problem, especially something simple. The communication and the customer service from Verizon have a lot to be desired and need a lot of hard work. If I had to grade it right now, I would give it a "D" for barely passing, just barely beneath being adequate. I think that's a fair assessment. For a provider that's getting so much of your money, it's disappointing. My time is valuable and I honestly feel that Verizon oftentimes doesn't give a darn about that. To me it's another example of having to waste more time going around in circles like the phone runaround being put on hold numerous times until you hopefully get the issue resolved.
And sure, my problem has been solved...once again after going for a loop and going for another runaround. It's not really acceptable customer service.
Excuse my cynicism but that's my opinion. For 140 bucks per month, it's not my problem that Verizon is hiring someone with poor English to write that error message. That's pathetic and who has time for that nonsense? I like the product but like I said, time will tell. -
It is so freakin annoying. I will never want this shortcut to do anything but start a new browser.
Make sure that Firefox gets installed properly.<br />
Open the DMG file and drag to Firefox program to the application folder on your hard drive.<br />
You shouldn't double-click the Firefox application to run it from the disk image, but drag it out of the DMG folder instead.

Help! How do I get rid of this annoying outline around text after exporting to a PNG
I designed a text document in illustrator and it looks great...in illustrator. As soon as I export it to a PNG, an annoying outline around text appears. What do I do?????
For text or 1-color items you can try the .gif format for sharper edges.
Try changing the color of your matte to what the colro of the background is. The image will lok bad, unless you put that on top of your background. -

* first i'd recommend to [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems|reset firefox]]
* then [https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/update/ update firefox to the latest version] (that's firefox 23 at the moment) as soon as possible
* run a full scan of your system with the security software that you have in place and different other tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] & [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner].
* finally after you've completed the steps above please report back in the forum and include the then current troubleshooting information again, so that we can have a final check that everything in your profile seems clean.
thank you

They don't appear in IE. "?" characters are on diamond shaped black background and overwrite characters underneath making it difficult to read the text.
A diamond indicates a problem with the font or the content of a web page. You get a diamond if the page uses an 8 bit encoding and the character can't be mapped. A possible cause is that the text was copied from another (Unicode) source and pasted on that website. IE probably shows a white box or nothing in such a case. It is also possible that the page is send with the wrong encoding by the server.
Can you post a link to a page where you see that? -
