When I click the + button on the tab strip to open a new tab,search.conduit opens.How do I change it to get the original firefox tab page?

I recently installed utorrent.The problem started after that.The home page is Google, but on opening a new tab, I don't get the thumbnails that is usually displayed, instead search.conduit page is opened.How can I get my old settings back? I even uninstalled utorrent to see if this problem goes away, but it doesn't.

Thank you, but I was able to solve the problem already. There was a button named "Remove" just below the space where we enter the item to be searched in a search engine. On clicking this, I was able to return to the original new tab page. I wasn't being trigger happy while installing utorrent, there was nothing there indicating that conduit will be installed. Nevertheless, thanks a lot for trying to help me in solving my problem.

My safari browser seems to have been taken over by a malicious program called only-search. Does any one know how to uninstall this program from safari? I am running osX 10.10.

There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
You may have installed the "VSearch" trojan. Remove it as follows.
Malware is always changing to get around the defenses against it. These instructions are valid as of now, as far as I know. They won't necessarily be valid in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for more recent discussions or start a new one.
Back up all data before proceeding.
Step 1
From the Safari menu bar, select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including any that have the word "Spigot," "Trovi," or "Conduit" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
Reset the home page and default search engine in all the browsers, if it was changed.
Step 2
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/LaunchAgents/com.vsearch.agent.plist
Right-click or control-click the line and select
          Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "com.vsearch.agent.plist" selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
Repeat with each of these lines:
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.daemon.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.helper.plist
Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Then delete the following items in the same way:
/Library/Application Support/VSearch
/System/Library/Frameworks/VSearch.framework
~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ConduitNPAPIPlugin.plugin
Some of these items may be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file can't be found. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
The problem may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow.
You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the Internet criminal behind VSearch has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

How to uninstall conduit

How to uninstall conduit

That toolbar/ct plugin seems to cause problems for all who install it!
If you are running Tiger or Leopard:
Close Safari, then locate and delete the following files and it should be gone:
/Library/Application Support/Conduit
/Library/InputManagers/CTLoader
/Library/Receipts/ctloader.pkg
/Library/Receipts/<Toolbar name>.pkg
/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/CT2285220.bundle
/Users/<User name>/Library/Application Support/Conduit
where / is the root library on your Hard Disk.
If you are running Snow Leopard you should also look here:
Library/launchAgents/com.conduit.loader.agent.plist
Library/Application support/conduit plugins
Also, as mentioned by Gilli2000:
Library/Receipts - If you read it, it has information in it at the bottom referring extensively to "CT" and "community toolbar".
Maybe it is harmless, but trash those items anyway!

Trying to get search.conduit off my mozilla how do i do this??

this search.conduit keeps trying to rest my homepage

Conduit is connected with a range of "Community Toolbar" add-ons. If you have one of those, or any unrecognized extensions, you may want to disable or remove those.
Start on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable or remove.
Usually a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
To reset your home page, preferred search provider, and new tab page in one step, you can use this extension: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/searchreset/].
Cured?

Search.conduit: none of the solutions I've found are working.

search.conduit.com has been inserted into my search engines. This redirects me to a variety of sponsored search links anytime I a) attempt to search for something via the typical (google/yahoo etc.) address bar, search box, or search engine, b) anytime I click a link, search result, or attempt to download a file, and c) at random, about once an hour, intervals, involuntarily, without my consent, and seemingly with random search parameters.
I've been told this isn't a virus. Additionally, none of my antivirus (Avast!) or antispyware (Malwarebytes Free, SpyBot Search and Destroy, and SUPERAntispyware Free) do not detect it.
I've encountered many solutions for dealing with this issue. So far I've tried:
1) about:config changes to all defaults. Had no effect; the redirects continue.
2) Changing my profile. Same, redirects continue.
3) Reinstalling FireFox. Redirects still continue.
4) I've found advice on numerous conduit-related folders and files in the FireFox appdata folder and other system files to remove; I have removed everything I've seen matching these descriptions. The redirects continue.
5) conduit does not appear as an application, toolbar, add-on, extension, or any similar format, as suggested by others. Ive found no concrete element of it anywhere on my computer. Nevertheless, the redirects still occur.
This...whatever it is, is effectively rendering FireFox and IE useless, as all searches, links, bookmarks, and history pages are all redirected to conduit-sponsored searches. The only way I am able to open links is via directly inputting urls into the address box.
Additionally, not sure if this is related, but frequently, my browser will refuse to load any sort of flash application or streaming video. I believe this might be related.
One final note, I recently removed a major virus, Antispyware Soft, from my laptop. I am fairly confident I have removed all occurances and related files of this virus, though I suspect the conduit issue is related to it.

Every time Firefox opened

Dragging it off the dock shouldn't have removed it, I have done this with mine because it isn't a program I use all the time, I work with RAW data from my camera all the time so I end up using Photoshop and Bridge to view mine. However, moving mine from the dock, I'm still able to find it and run it from the Applications folder. If you have removed it, you should be able to reinstall it, however, we need to know what version of OS X you are running to help show you how to install it again. Please follow the directions from the posts above and let us know what version you are running.

How to uninstall the command line tools?

I installed the command line tools in Xcode 4.5 from the preferences : downloads : command line tools.
If i want to uninstall this component, what should I do？
PS:
I saw an answer in the Apple Support Communities about how to uninstall the Xcode 4.3 and later versions.
This is the original: " If You want to uninstall completely XCode go to launchpad and push Xcode icon for two
seconds, so click on the upper left checkbox.".
I don't know what means "push Xcode icon for two seconds, so click on the upper left checkbox".

There is no easy way to uninstall the command line tools. The following article has a script to uninstall them:
You Don’t Need The Xcode “Command Line Tools”
Read the comments in the article. I have not tested the script, but this is the first result when searching Google for "xcode 4.5 uninstall command line tools".

How To Uninstall Background Apps Installed With CC

Hello,
I attempted to install the PhotoshopCC onto a Windows OS7 computer - which went drastically wrong. I performed an uninstall - yet that left a background app that now runs even though I have no Adobe applications running.
How do you uninstall the background application and all other components installed with the PhotoshopCC installation?
I have been on hold for chat support multiple times for multiple hours - never getting a chat representative.
I have called the support number multiple times and put on hold for hours - never getting a support rep.
I do not want to pay $39 for a call-back to simply to find out how to uninstall this background application.
I have searched the Adobe Support Forum for answers, and found that other people have similar issue, yet unable to find answers.
I have been using numerous Adobe products for over 15 years through my work. Never experienced this amount of problems in product and support prior to this situation.

click start>control panel>programs>uninstall programs and uninstall all adobe cc programs.
then run the cleaner, http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html
restart your computer
any problem? if so, state specifics.

How to uninstall Inquisitor and use the updated AcidSearch (in Leopard)

Title says it all I think - I loved AcidSearch - enough that I didn't use Safari 3 (beta) in Tiger because it killed AcidSearch and when I migrated to Leopard I missed it dearly and have been getting by unhappily with Inquisitor. Now there's a new AcidSearch and it's installed but my search tab is still controlled by Inquisitor - which I can't remove.
The two ways to remove it that I've found while googling are running the install app again and clicking 'uninstall' - however that isn't an option - it just installs over the top over and over - or by removing it from the Input Managers folder in Library - but that's seemingly a Tiger-only folder now and there's nothing Inquisitor-related in it...
I guess the other question I have is actually which is better - I only just now realized I can add search engines to Inquisitor - so that might make it very functionally similar to AcidSearch. I don't have very fast broadband, so I feel the predictive element of Inquisitor is useless.
Any thoughts on which is better and/or how to uninstall Inquisitor (so I can choose!) would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Alex,
I just installed it to see where it places files, and the only place the latest version seems to install anything is in Hard drive -> Library -> Input Managers.
It also (annoyingly) renamed my users Input Managers folder to what you have, i.e. Input Managers-Tiger (I have Cocoa Gestures in there, which was working just fine Mr InquisitorX developer...)
After deleting the Inquisitor bundle from the top level Input Managers folder and restarting Safari it appears to have gone.
What version were you using before? Have you tried downloading the same version from versiontracker.com and seeing if the uninstall in that version works?

How to uninstall application in mac?

how to uninstall application in mac?

Uninstalling Software: The Basics
Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash. Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space. If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application. In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder. You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder. You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder. Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item. Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder. Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences. Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab. Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS. Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term. Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default. You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, EasyFind 4.9, instead.
Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder. Usually with the same name as the program or the developer. The item generally has a ".pkg" extension. Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
There are many utilities that can uninstall applications. Here is a selection:
AppZapper 2.0.1
AppDelete 3.2.6
Automaton 1.50
Hazel
AppCleaner 2.1.0
CleanApp
iTrash 1.8.2
Amnesia
Uninstaller 1.15.1
Spring Cleaning 11.0.1
Look for them at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
