How do I get rid of "This is embarassing" message that is now default when opening Firefox. H
How can I get rid of this tab the message refers to and the error message?
Make sure that Firefox closes properly.
Try to use "Firefox/File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit") to close Firefox if you are currently doing that by clicking the close X on the title bar.

How to Remove “Other” Data from iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-remove-other-data-from-iphone/
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

This happens when my home page is loading, or sometimes when I am trying to open another game, and sometimes for no reason at all. It happens usually about 10-20 times an hour and is a real pain. I use Foxfire because it supports the Zinga game bar. What can I do to help get rid of this nuisance.
Thanks for the workaround. However what's missing here is some acknowledgement of a new problem? This error message on start-up is affecting every laptop and Mac in our house. It wasn't happening before the last upgrade so what's been broken and what else is damaged? Firefox has been running so clunky and slow of late that I'm considering abandoning it until I read things have been fixed.

How do I get rid of an "uninstal set"message that comes up with each entry? h new page?
The message box appears with each new page or entry and locks up the machine until removed.. Some times the X and EXT must be pressed several times to get rid of the box
Other users have reported that this is caused by one of their add-ons. I suggest going to the Add-ons page and disabling everything that is not essential, and then restarting Firefox. Hopefully it's not caused by something you really rely on.
orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Add-ons > Extensions
Any luck? -
The mail icon on my iPhone says I have 1,504 unread messages, but when I go to delete them, it says "No Mail". I was trying to "clean out" my phone because I can't access my Words With Friends app - everytime I try to go there, it kicks me off. I still get messages from Words saying my friends are waiting for me. Any ideas on either of these issues?

How do I get rid of the three SEO apps that are now on my computer?
I'm not into internet marketing-building websites etc., at this time. I would like to remove the SEO apps that are on my desktop etc. I believe there are three of them, and I don't need them.
To: the-edmeister,
Thanks for your efforts. Close, but no cigar (lol). I'm very familiar with deleting programs from the Programs directory. However, this app wasn't to be found there. Seems it's a tool bar that you get free from SEOBOOK.COM. There's three parts to it: RankChecker, SEOQuake, and SEOBook. I'm going to contact SEOBook to see if I can solve the problem. I got the initial offer from Mozilla, if I'm not mistaken. Otherwise I wouldn't have looked at it. It's a great resource if you're into building sites and marketing on the net. Thanks, again, for your reply. -

In Mail on iMac, successfully running OS X Lion, one mailbox on My Mac for "Recovered Messages (from AOL)" keeps showing 1 very large message (more than 20 Mb) that I just cannot seem to delete. Each time I go into my In Box, the "loading" symbol spins and the message appears in the "Recovered Messages" mailbox. How can I get rid of this recurrent file, please?
At the same time, I'm not receviving any new mails in my In Box, although, if I look at the same account on my MacBook Pro, I can indeed see the incoming mails (but on that machine I do not have the "recovery" problem).
The help of a clear-thinking Apple fan would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks.
From Ian in Paris, FranceIan
I worked it out.
Unhide your hidden files ( I used a widget from http://www.apple.com/downloads/dashboard/developer/hiddenfiles.html)
Go to your HD.
Go to Users.
Go to your House (home)
there should be a hidden Library folder there (it will be transparent)
Go to Mail in this folder
The next folder ( for me ) is V2
Click on that and the next one will be a whole list of your mail servers, and one folder called Mailboxes
Click on that and there should be a folder called recovered messages (server) . mbox
Click on that there a random numbered/lettered folder -> data
In that data folder is a list of random numbered folders (i.e a folder called 2, one called 9 etc) and in EACH of these, another numbered folder, and then a folder called messages.
In the messages folder delete all of the ebmx (I think that's what they were from memory, sorry I forgot as I already deleted my trash after my golden moment).
This was GOLDEN for me. Reason being, when I went to delete my "recovered file" in mail, it would give me an error message " cannot delete 2500 files". I knew it was only 1 file so this was weird. Why 2500 files? Because if you click on the ebmx files like I did, hey presto, it turned out that they were ALL THE SAME MESSAGE = 2500 times. In each of those folders in the random numbers, in their related message folder.
Now remember - DONT delete the folder, make sure you have gone to the message folder, found all those pesky ebmx files and deleted THOSE, not the folder.
It worked for me. No restarting or anything. And recovered file. GONE.
Started receiving and syncing mail again. Woohoo.
Best wishes. -
the cursor includes a text box from a previous image or link when the cursor is positioned on the side of the page. it will mainly happen when i hit "back" from the page i was on. i click and it goes away but only to return again on the next launched page. i also keep several tabs open and it will carry over to any one of them i go to. how do i get rid of this?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== when i upgraded to most recent version 3.6.8A number of extensions can cause that problem, you'll need to do a little troubleshooting to find out which extension is causing that to happen for you.

I have two MacBook Pros on my local wi-fi network. I usually have these connected to each other over my wi-fi network. Normally, I only connect to my old computer (MacBookPro) from the new computer (MacBookPro2), so I can access files on my old computer that are typically not on my new computer. I use the same admin username (John Doe) and password on each computer. Currently, I have Mavericks (10.9.5) on my old computer and Yosemite (10.10) on the new MacBook Pro. All
I am now getting a recurrent request to connect to old computer even when I am already connected! When this request is being made, I am asked to connect to a username (johndoe instead of John Doe). The exact alert:
Enter your name and password for the server "MacBook Pro".
connect as << button is pressed for Registered User >>
Name: johndoe
Password: _________
<< Cancel button >> << Connect button >>
When I enter correct user name (John Doe or johndoe) and password for my account on Mavericks computer, the connection fails (whether I connected to Mavericks computer or not), and I get the following:
There was a problem connecting to the server "MacBookPro". The share does not exist on the server. Please check the share name and try again.
If I change to the proper share name John Doe and use the correct password, I still am not connected and I get the same failure message and am asked to use the correct share name again. If I cancel message, the connection message goes away for a while whether I am actually connected to old computer or not. It will then come back on the workspace I am currently using on my new macbook. When I am downloading files using terminal, the connect request comes up constantly if I continue canceling the message which is really irritating. How do I get rid of this constantly recurring request to connect???It means you must be connected to your computer via Wi-Fi (or cable).
Or wait for iOS 5
