How do I get rid of this stupid Yahoo toolbar that just appeared on my browser?

Downloaded new Firefox browser and was delighted to see such a treamline header without all the tool bar stuff. When I opened Firefox this morning, lo and behold, this stupid Yahoo tool bar appears. How do I get rid of this junky add-on?

Where are Settings?General? On the computer. I'm having this and I'm on the macmini, not a phone or ipad.

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.

There is this awful box you put into firefox 4 and I want to get rid of it

The easiest way is to use the Status-4-Evar add-on. With it you can choose to not display any of the status messages or url hover previews, or display them in the add-ons bar or location bar instead.

TS3899 The Mail icon on my iPhone 4s says I have 1,504 unread emails. I've gone in and cleaned out all my email (sent it to Trash, then emptied the Trash), and when I go to my email, it says no mail. How do I get rid of this 1,504 emails that aren't the

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?

Had the sudden appearence of a "books" folder that contains the Kindle app. How do I get rid of this folder and return to just the Kindle app icon on the screen?

I have an iTouch. I do not remember exactly what happened, but I now have a folder labeled "Books" that contains my Kindle app.
Previously, I simply had the Kindle app on the home screen.
How do I remove the Books folder and return to the previous setup, i.e. just the Kindle app on the home screen?

Is there another app in the folder like the iBooks app? Yu can move two apps together and when they combine and be placed in a folder. Itunes will guess/suggest a folder name and you can change it. If there are tow apps in the folder just go to that folder and touch and hold the an app and after they start wiggling mode one app out side the folder and folder will disappear if there were only two apps in the folder. To stop the wiggling depress the Home button once.

How do I get rid of the McDonald's ads that are appearing on websites and obscuring my screen? The appear in front of articles or photos and I can't remove them

About 2 days ago I began having issues with these McDonald's ads appearing on certain websites that I frequent such as huffingtonpost.com and weather.com. I will go to read an article and smack in the middle of the page is this ad blocking the article. Rolling over it doesn't do anything. When I go to weather.com and type in my zip code I will be taken to that page but immediately all of the weather info disappears and a McDonald's ad appears. I don't know if this could be a virus or spyware or some kind? I have a Dell and am running Windows 7.

Unexplained behavior across multiple sites could indicate an unwanted add-on. Could you review your extensions and disable everything nonessential (that's usually almost everything), restart Firefox, and see whether that shuts down the ads?

In Mail, one mailbox for Recovered Message (AOL) keeps showing 1 very large message that I cannot delete. How can I get rid of this recurring problem, please?

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, France

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 curser includes a text box from a previous image or link when the curser is positioned on the side of the page. i click and it goes away but only to return again on the next launched page. how do i get rid of this?

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 3.6.8

A 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 get a recurrent request to connect by wi-fi to another computer on my wi-fi network, even if I am already connected to this other computer by wi-fi. How do I get rid of this recurrent request?

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
