How do I remove the icon for file version 4.42.0.0 since it will not even download?

For quite awhile I have successfully used file version 34.0.5 with no issues. Recently, I had an icon the popped up on my desktop for file version 4.42.0.0. I tried to download it, just so it would move to my control panel, so I that I could uninstall it, It will not download. So, then I uninstalled, and reinstalled 34.0.5 to see if that would solve the issue of installing 4.42.0.0, no still nothing. I really don't want or need 4.42.0.0, so how do I get rid of it ?

  • How do I remove an alert for a calendar item that has long since been deleted? and yet goes off mysteriously, un-deletably, and un-editably every single ****** week !!

    How do I remove an alert for a calendar item that has long since been deleted? and yet goes off mysteriously, un-deletably, and un-editably every single ****** week !!

    I have the same problem with my iPhone.  I set up a recurring calendar event for every Thursday.  That event is no longer happening during the summer, so I went in and chose one from the current month and selected Delete.  Then it gve me two choices, one of which was to Delete All Future Events of this one, and that's what I chose.  I figured, this way, I'll still be able to see the ones from the past, but won't have to see (or hear the alert) for the future ones.
    The following week, my phone alerted me to the appointment, and even showed it on the initial screen, even though it wasn't in the calendar.  I went in to the calendar and NOTHING was scheduled for that day.  So why is this happening?
    So I set up a new recurring event, for in the past, then went in and deleted all furture occurances, and it did the same thing... still alerted to an event that was no longer in the calendar.
    I hope somebody else has found a fix, or at least a reason for why this is happening.

  • How can I change the icon for incoming messages on iChat?

    I already changed the icon for the ichat app, but whenever i get a new message it reverts back to the original icon with a number on the corner. I have an icon for the alternating messages i just don't know how to change it. HELP?!

    Hi,
    It's a long time since I changed an Icon on anything on my computer.
    The icon for the App is stored in the App and there are two ways to change  it.
    You can do a  Get Info (CMD and i Keys together) on the app itself and then Paste a new icon to the top field.
    The other way is to edit/change the icns file in the App itself.
    Right/Control Click the app and choose Show Package Contents.
    Open the Contents folder then Resources and the iChat.icns file is in there
    I am presuming that if you use the first method - the bit that puts the Red area with the number in it uses something else (possibly the icns file)
    I cannot find any "supply" of the red numbers.  In fact I use Chax (An iChat Add-On) that changes this  to the first part of the first IM that is not read - which suggests the red area is the important bit.
    If you do try to edit the .icns file I would save the Original first.

  • How do I remove the requirement for a signature from a PDF?

    I can't have my associates and customers signing a document that does not require their signature. How do I remove this requirement from the PDF?
    (Yes, I have seen the other threads on this subject but the registry entries described are not in my registry and merely disabling the user interface doesn't remove the REQUIREMENT for the signature in the first place.)
    Thank you,
    David Smith

    You can set standard password security by selecting: FIle > Properties > Security > Security Method > Password Security
    and in the dialog that's presented, set the security restrictions so that no changes are allowed, or to whatever else you want.

  • How can I change the icon for the bookmarks menu button

    Using linux, the default icon for the bookmarks menu button is quite ugly. Is there a way to change the icon for the button with some code in userChrome.css ?

    After several intents, I found a solution.
    This is my userChrome.css file:
    @namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul");
    toolbarbutton[class="toolbarbutton-1"]#bookmarks-menu-button image[class="toolbarbutton-icon"] {
    list-style-image: url("bookmark_gray.png") !important;
    -moz-image-region: rect(0px, 0px, 0px, 24px) !important;}
    Probably it's messy but works.

    *THANK YOU!!!*
    I'd been having this problem for weeks and it was driving me nuts!! I tried installing the 10.6.3 v1.1 Combo Update today (thinking the problem was caused by the first upgrade to 10.6.3), but that obviously didn't work. Tried messing w/ Airfoil b/c some people complained about it screwing up icon previews; didn't work. Tried deleting the Quicklook.thumbnailcache; didn't work.
    After reading this post I opened the Console and saw a .mkv file was screwing with quicklookd.
    Deleted it -> problem solved!
    Thanks again!

  • How do I remove the Icons next to each bookmark on the bookmark toolbar? They take up too much space and all the bookmarks I need on the toolbar dont show up.

    On my bookmarks toolbar, each bookmark has the associated webpage icon next to it. I would like to remove those icons, as they take up too much space.
    Thanks

    The icons, if you are familiar with them or they are obvious, take up less space than the words. You can abbreviate the names down to next to nothing or even nothing.
    To save space and help organization you can group bookmarks into folders on your Bookmarks toolbar.

  • How can I remove the icons from my personal toolbar (I don't need them, words are fine, and they take up too much space)?

    I shorten the names of sites in the properties box to allow me to get a lot of them in my toolbar, and they no longer fit because of all the icons. Personally, I hate icons and don't understand why everyone has trouble with words, a trusted and highly refined technology of identifiers.
