How to get rid of black outline boxes persisting on screen

Black outline boxes have started appearing around objects and icons that I’ve clicked on or text areas I've filled in. Sometimes these boxes persist on the screen in its original location until I go to a new program.
For example – in PhotoShop, a black outline box appeared on the vertical slider area and then stayed in the same location on the screen until I switched to Safari – which then got it’s own boxes.
I have a clear 20” Cinema Display.

Open the Universal Access pane of System Preferences and check if VoiceOver is turned on; if so, turn it off.

This sounds more like a Windows question, than a Firefox question. When you say that an image shows up every time you open your computer, do you mean every time you turn on your computer, or every time you start Firefox?

How to get rid of VIP mail box added version 6 ?

I just updated my iPod to 6.0, and there are two things I do not like about it:
First, it added a "VIP" mail box which I don't want. How do I get rid of it?
It also added a "passbook" app or something, which I don't want and don't need. I've religated it to the "not used much" folder, but I wish they wouldn't add it without asking me or at least let me take it off my device.
Shame on you Apple. For the first time since I've had my iPod I'm feeling messed with and I don't like it.
David

Try a reset: hold down the home button along with the power button until you see the Apple, then let go.

How to get rid of reopen window box on shutdown

I want to have my Mac default to not opening windows previously opened and I want to get rid of the anoying default "reopen windows" box when I shut down. How do I do this?

A permanent replacement for the "Reopen windows when logging back in" checkbox is as follows:
1. Close all apps you don't want to open at startup.
2. Open your user Library folder. It is normally invisible, so press the Option key while selecting the "Go" menu in the Finder then select "Library" to open it.
3. Use the Get Info dialog "Locked" checkbox to lock this plist:
~/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.loginwindow.*.plist
where "~" is your home folder and "*" is a sequence of characters (12 in my case). No need to lock the corresponding lockfile.
This plist is where the System stores "reopen windows" info, so the System can't change/delete it if it is locked. This won't change the "Reopen windows..." checkbox setting, but that setting will no longer have any effect.

How to get rid of Veriface Icon at Log In Screen

When I boot up my Yoga2Pro in Windows 8.1, I get the sign in screen to enter my four-digit Pin. If I hit the left arrow, I go to a screen which has my "guest" account and then a Veriface Icon.
Is this the normal default? I don't remember the Veriface Icon being there before, or maybe I just didn't notice.
Is there anyway to get rid of the Veriface Icon without uninstalling the program? I could not find Veriface in my start up menu, and when I opened the program I could not find any settings. Thanks in advance for any help.
James
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Ended up uninstalling program. Issue gone. Seems to boot a little faster not that it didn't boot fast before.

How to get rid of an ad frozen on a screen

An ad of sorts came up on a screen I was using and I cannot get rid of it, nor move to the next screen of the site. Every time I close the tab and then go back to it the same ad comes up. Even shutting down the computer and then restarting does not help.

Quit the application. Force quit if necessary.
Relaunch it by holding down the shift key and clicking its icon in the Dock. From the menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
to get rid of any cookies or other data left by the server. Open your Downloads folder and delete anything you don't recognize.

How to get rid of black bars on top, bottom and sides??

I am exporting a project from Adobe Premiere Pro (CS3) that is in HD (widescreen) format. The original video is HD, the size option I chose for the project is HD, everything is showing fine when I look at it in the Program window. I admit I am a bit of a novice Premiere user, so I do need a little help with the exporting as there are a ton of options. This is what is happening: When I export, whether to AVI or Quicktime my project comes out with black bars all the way around. Not like letterboxing on top and bottom as when you have a widescreen video exported to a standard 4:3 size, but almost like a 16:9 video, shrunken down a little with a 16:9 black box put around it. What the heck am I doing wrong. I'm sure it has something to do with some option on exporting, but I've tried messing around with the export options about 20 different ways. I'm desperate! Please help!
Thanks in advance!

I have several video clips from iStockPhoto. I don't know what camera's/settings were used, but know that they are all 640x360 px and vary between 25 fps and 30 fps. I also have 3 still images that I have insterted that I formatted to be 640x360 to keep everything the same size. Everything appears correct when viewing the project as I've built it. I'm attaching a few screen shots of the most recent settings for export, though these are not the only that I have tried. Everything comes out with the same result.
I can't insert screen shots of my settings for some reason (?) but here is some info on my most recent try. I chose to export as a Microsoft DV AVI. Then in the Video options I'm using the DV NTSC codec. For size, I chose the D1/NTSC Widescreen 16:9 (1.2) option.
As for other times I've tried this, there are only 2 other codecs to choose from when saving as a DV AVI. I've tried both of them too. Everything has had the same result. I've tried a Quicktime file as well.
Does anyone have a suggestion as to the best file/codec/setting combination?
Thanks,

How to get rid of empty space in module pool screen?

Hello Experts,
In module pool, I have 2 table controls inside 2 separate boxes in the same screen. Based on some conditions I hide the first table control. It's all working fine. But the space where first table is created remains blank in the screen. I don't want that.If the first table control is hidden the second table control should occupy the empty space. I do not want empty space in the screen.
How can I acheive this.Is there anything I can set in the screen attribute level.
Thanks.
Yasin.

Hi Yasin,
As you said you have 2 sub screen areas and also 2 subscreens.
when hide the First subscreen from First Subscreen area, you need to assign the second subscreen on to the first subscreen area and a dummy subscreen on to second subscreen area, this is a kind of work around and bit tricky playing with screen elements
in Top Include
data dynnr type sy-dynnr value '100' " your default Subscreen number
in PBO
call subscreen sub1 including sy-repid dynnr1 " First Sub screen area
call subscreen sub2 including sy-repid dynnr2 " Second sub screen area
in PAI
module call_dyn_number.
in program.
case ok_code.
when 'HIDE'. " When you hide the first table control
dynnr1 = '200' " This is your second table control containing Screen number
dynnr2 = '300'. "This is a Dummy Screen Number which doesnt contain any screen elements so output is plain
" Note: This is a crude IDEA only as you try to implement you need to adjust this for the expected outcome
" I implemented this earlier but dont have complete ref at this moment
endcase.
Hope this serves your purpose
