How do you remove the annoying bottom part of the home screen?

I hate the bottom part of the home screen and is there any way to get rid of it?

You are referring to multitasking in iOS 6.
You cannot hide the dock in iOS 6 (or any other version for that matter).
It just looks different. In iOS 7 it is flat:

  • How do you remove a third party item from the system preference

    I am running Mt Lion 10.8.5 and need to remove the Norton Antivirus that is in the system preference. 
    What is the trick on getting it out of there?

    Hi,
    Read All on this one.
    The Disk or the Installer .dmg that you got for this should have an Uninstaller included.
    On a  Disk it may be a separate item.
    However sometimes it is an option choice during the Install screens.
    The web site for the app should also have instructions (in rare cases the Uninstaller is on the web site)
    Common "all user"  add-on Preferences Pane are stored in Had Drive Name/Library/PreferencesPanes
    The ones that come in the OS are in Hard Drive Name/System/Library/PreferencePanes
    Note the Path Bar displayed across both pics.  (Finder > View Menu > Show Path Bar).
    You also have a User Folder version Hard Drive Name/Users/(your account name)/Library/PreferencePanes (~/Library/PreferencePanes)
    You have to use the Finder > Go Menu > Go to Folder and type (Copy from here and Paste there) in the Dialogue box that appears  (use the ~/Library/PreferencePanes option)
    There is a good chance this one is empty.
    Broadly speaking though the more complicated the processes behind a Preference Pane or app the easier and better it is to remove it with the correct Uninstaller.
    Norton is Invasive !!
    USE THE UNINSTALLER Method

  • How can you remove unwanted pop-up ads and the virus creating them?

    I think I downloaded virus which causes unwanted pop-up ads that cannot be removed.  There is only the option to minimize, not close and they continually pop-up.  What can be done to run a safe virus scan and remove the unwanted pop-ups?

    Force Quit .
    Press command + option + esc keys together at the same time.  Wait.
    When Force Quit window appears, select the application if not already.
    Press Force Quit button at the bottom of the window.    Wait.
    Application will quit.
    If this does not help, press the power button for 7 or more seconds.
    Computer will shut down.

  • How do you remove a non-existant folder from the sidebar?

    I am having trouble removing a file from 'places' in my sidebar. The file doesn't exist any more. I cannot drag it out nor can I highlight it to 'get info' to see if it has somehow become locked. I hope someone can help.

    You don't have to highlight it, simply Right or Control click the offending item and select "Remove from Sidebar."

  • What causes vertical color lines on ipad2 and how do you remove them ?

    What causes vertical color lines on an IPad. And how do you remove them ?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    If still present: Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

    Don't believe it's a factor, but you should update your iOS.
    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1.3. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
    Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.

  • How do you remove a downloaded podcast

    I clicked Free Doanload on a podcast. Now I want to delete it. It doesn't show up in iTunes under podcasts under ATV. How do you remove it?
    For that matter, the ATV is trying to sync podcasts that I have not asked it to sync. How do you reset the prefs so that it forgets this action?
    Some bugs here and there ...

    Actually, there is a little trash can next to the title which I never noticed. You select it and the download goes away. Nice touch.

  • How do you remove the background from an image

    how do you remove the background from an image thathas a white background?

    First, change the background layer to a normal layer if needed, by dragging the padlock to the trash can.
    Then use the quick selection tool or magic wand tool to select your background.
    Now you can either delete the background, or click the icon at the bottom of the layers panel that looks like a circle inside a square. This icon will convert the selection to a mask.
    The advantage of the mask is, it is non-destructible. In that you can change your mind at any time. Whereas deleting pixels is permanent once you close the file and there is no duplicate files. (A way around this is to make a duplicate layer and hide it. But that does make the file larger.)

  • HT3386 How do you remove part of a file. My thumbnail attach themselves then refuse to allow editing without deleting my complete work. I even scan in jpegs of my documents and it incessantly adds blanks I can't remove.

    How do you remove part of a file. My thumbnail attach themselves then refuse to allow editing without deleting my complete work. I even scan in jpegs of my documents and it incessantly adds blanks I can't remove.

    Pages documents are organized in sections. When you click on the thumbnail for a page, the section containing that page is selected. The Delete command applies to the selection, so if you press delete at this point, the selected section is deleted.
    You can separate a section into two or more sections by inserting a section break at the end of the page before the page you want ot be the first in the new section, then inseritng a second section break where you want the second section to end. Click on the thumbnail for any page in the new section, thenpress delete and the new section will be deleted.
    If desired, you can then reconnect the two remaining sections into one by deleting the section break between them.
    An alternate is to select any floating objects on the pages you want to delete, then press delete. After that, select the text on the pages you want to delete, then press delete.
    If all objects on these pages (and al objects on pages following these pages) have been placed as Inline objects, this deletion may be done in a single step. Floating objects placed below the deleted material will maintain their position relative to the top left corner of the first page of the section,m and will not be in the same place within the text as they were before the deletion.
    "I even scan in jpegs of my documents and it incessantly adds blanks I can't remove."
    If your jpegs are inserted as inline objects, each will be treated as a single, large character in the text. You will see the same space left and right of the object as you would create by increasing the height of one character in the line of text to the same size as the height of the jpeg image.
    If they are inserted as floating objects, then depending on the Wrap settings, they may force text out of the space to the left, right, or both sdes of the object, as well as forcing a small gap above and below the object. If the scan includes excess white space around the graphic, this white space will be included as part of the object
    Regards,
    Barry.

  • How do you remove back up data from the memory storage? my storage data states that i have over 80gb of data used for back ups and i dont know why as i use a external hard drive as a time machine .now my 250gb flash storage is nearly full

    how do you remove back up data from the memory storage? my storage data states that i have over 80gb of data used for back ups and i dont know why as i use a external hard drive as a time machine .now my 250gb flash storage is nearly full.. HELP!

    When Time Machine backs up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of recently deleted files. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown as  Backups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself. If you followed bad advice to disable local snapshots by running a shell command, you may have ended up with a lot of data in the Other category. Ask for instructions in that case.
    See this support article for some simple ways to free up storage space.

  • How do you remove items from the assets panel that are duplicated?

    How do you remove items from the assets panel that are duplicated?

    If you add an item to a slideshow, you'll usually see 2 entries for that image in the assets panel - one represents the thumbnail, and the other represents the larger 'hero' image.
    It sounds like you may have added the same image to your slideshow twice. You can select one of the hero images or thumbnail images in your slideshow and use the delete key to remove it. Then the extra 2 entries in the assets panel should disappear.
