How get rid of new permanent tab in firefox 23.0?

I have FF on both desktop/laptop with XP. Yesterday, both auto-updated to 23.0 which added a permanent, unmovable tab above my toolbar. I never use tabs, and all this does is push my site view down and make it smaller by 1/2". How do I get rid of this unwanted tab? Thanx.

hello, apparently this option has been removed intentionally in preparation for a redesign of the browser which will land in firefox later this year. you can use the following extension to work around the issue though: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/hide-tab-bar-with-one-tab/

How to get rid of extra plugins tab on Firefox 3.6 startup

After a no-error crash Firefox 3.6 came back with extra tab. Tried every listed method could find but this tab could not be stopped from coming up when starting the program.
Help.
Don't want to upgrade!!! Everything was working fine until this. I changed nothing. Was working when all of a sudden it disappeared - no warning, no error message. When restarted instead of coming up with the usual list of tabs to restore, it came up in a new tab with a list of plug-ins it wanted me to update.
Would like to get back to where it was before crash. Some of the plug-ins can't be upgraded and were fine before this happened.
I do a lot of legacy work - all the way back to Windows 3.1, 4.0 along with DOS, and Mac OS 7, 8, & 9. I have two machines that are dedicated to hardware and software that are over 15 years old, whose output is in the same time, and at least the quality, of today's machines - These were high end machines in their day. Certain functions on any machine are limited by physics and mathematics, making these ol' clunkers comparable to today's in speed and quality. On a third is software whose functionality was never duplicated, whose producers are extinct as companies. Doing this kind of work has unearthed a dearth of folks who need legacy support, who don't want to (They are my customers. They are right! I can only question so much of what they want, very tactfully and carefully.), are not going to, or especially, can't afford to, upgrade, especially after hearing of costs and problems. I see a lot of early versions of Firefox, as well as other browsers, especially Netscape. I even keep one PC that runs DOS in order to work with folks who still use DOS based programs that work, especially POS stuff.
That's why I'm retro. I deal with fossils which include paleo-Firefox.

I just want what I had a few days ago back. Everything was working fine. I stay with the old version because it works for what I do. Foreign concept in today's world.
Our gripe is that we are having upgrades forced on us that don't increase our productivity and cause losses of time and money in the process. None of this is free. Time is money. Switching to Windows 7 has cost me more money than I could afford, for instance. Upgrading Firefox throws out the use of some plug ins - they don't work on the newer versions and can't be upgraded - function gone.
The Macs I still maintain are classic examples of upgrades not being useful forward steps for what I do. There are several programs were made for them that once their operating system upgraded became unusable, even in emulation. Their ease and functionality have never been reproduced in today's software. The old browser works fine on them today. I don't need the new features. I use VMWare in Windows 7 to run a program that, according to the maker, upgrades for the "insignificant" price of $999. That ain't chicken feed! It's the only way it will run. There was no problem with this on XP.
In addition, I use these old machines in order to work with customer's old systems. When there are problems, a lot of what they have won't run on the newer machines at all. We get stuff so old we have to build machines to run it on as needed. And yes, a nightmare in extinct data, file formats - fun, fun fun.
Yes, we are helping folks stay in the stone ages of computing. We can do no more than advise them on what is available and how it works. The final comedown is theirs since they are the people paying the money. On my machines I am the final say and I too keep legacy equipment both for working with customer problems and as I said, I have old software as well as hardware that does not work on today's OS and still works fine and is too costly and troublesome to upgrade as well as offering no improvement in quality and speed of output.
Theory behind us now, how about some answers for the original question. Only in an ideal world is upgrading smooth. We don't live in one, nor would most of us want to. We are individuals.

How to get rid of the properties tab popping out when I create a new shape?

Hi! I am having a bit of trouble getting rid of the properties tab that pops out everytime I create a new shape in Photoshop CC.
Are there some settings to stop this from happening? I have my space strictly organized, as most of you probably, and I need to close it each time I create new shape... so it's frustrating.
Thank you!

After you draw out a shape, then go to the Properties panel fly-out menu and uncheck Show on Shape Creation

I use MacKeeper on my MacBook Pro
Ack! Get rid of that immediately! MacKeeper's bad news. Plus, it does a really awful job of actually detecting malware. See:

My active accounts are clean, but the On My Mac gmail keeps and continues to repopulate all email, even after I trash them.
If you're seeing messages remaining in GMail's All Mail folder after deleting them, that's normal. GMail keeps all messages in there, even after deletion, unless you manually delete stuff using GMail's web interface. See Hiding GMail’s “All Mail” from Apple Mail.
If you're actually having trouble deleting e-mail from an On My Mac mailbox, there's probably something wrong with your mailboxes.

How do I get rid of the Bookmarks tab, or customize the Navigation Pane?

I want to get rid of the bookmarks tab, I want only the "pages" tab to be open by default, whether the document has bookmarks or not. I know there's initial view but I need to set Acrobat to open the pages tab by default, not open it in bookmarks first, then change initial view to pages, then save.

Right-click and de-select Bookmarks Toolbar.
Or View > Toolbars

How to add a new custome tabs in 11.5.10 to Home Page

Hi All
can any one tell me how to add a new custom tab(top level menu tab) along with an exsiting standard tabs in 11.5.10 home page.
Thanks in Advance
Vikram

Query for your responsibility in Oracle Apps., and grab the Menu attached to it.
Query for this menu in Oracle Apps, can view its sub-menus and page functions attached. You can also view the hierarchy tree.
Now in this tree, position your new menu (that you want to create). Query to the parent menu (to which you want this new menu to be a child of) and create the new menu into it. Attach the page function/sub-menu to your new menu.
For a better understanding, look into the section "Implementing the View" (Menus and Page Security part) of the Dev. Guide.

When I delete a tab, next time I open Firefox it is back! I deleted it from Bookmards - How do I get rid of it permanently?

I have two tabs that I want to delete. I went to Show All Bookmarks, selected them on the list, held down the command key, clicked on Organize and deleted them. I exited Firefox. When I opened it again, the tabs that I had deleted in my Bookmarks were still there. If I clice the "x" on the tab, it disappears, but is there again when I re-enter Firefox.
How can I permanently get rid of them!!?

It might have gotten added to your "home page" setting -- you can have multiple home page URLs that open in separate tabs. This article has the steps to investigate that possibility or to clear your home page and set it from scratch: [[How to set the home page]]. Does that work?

Suddendly everytime I open a new tab it goes from Mozilla to Bablylon search. What is this and how do I get rid of it please? Using Firefox 5.

How to get rid of new menu button on far right side of toolbar

Honestly, I don't know why developers can't offer us new features which we can use or not use, by choice. Instead, things are forced upon us.
Would someone please tell me how to get rid of the new menu button on the right side of the toolbar?
There doesn't seem to be any option to remove it via the Customize toolbars window.
Thank you very much.

Hello brynn2,
First of all thank you for understanding us and sorry for the delay, it has really been a busy week for all of us out here.
The interface you see in Firefox 29 is a major re-design (first one since Firefox 4) of Firefox's user interface called "Australis."
