I can't get rid of a RebateInformer Icon. It arrived with a Firefox update and I don't want it! What do I do?

I am NOT an experienced computer user but I do know how to
get rid of a program. Even the "RebateInformer" told me to go to Control Panel & get rid of it there but it's not listed there. I did a search and found it. It's in C program files and when I go there it's along with firefox in C program files and settings with an update. When I try to delete it of course it says part of it is
being used! Nice little piece of garbage I've got somehow!
I know nothing else to do. I am truly a novice. I just tried this so I don't know how often it happens.

Reboot the device.
Shut down the device by holding the sleep/wake button and the home button at the same time.
Hold them both until you see the screen go black. In some cases, you may need to keep holding them even after the red power off slider appears. If it does, just keep holding it.
Wait until the white Apple logo appears.
When this happens, you can let go - the iPhone is rebooting.

Okay, folks, after a 3 1/2 hour phone call with a (very patient) telephone support person at Blackberry, here's what I learned.
You can check your USB drivers this way:
Plug in your phone into your USB drive. Assuming your Blackberry is "seen" by your computer...
Go into the Device Manager on your computer (control panel)
Expand the Universal Serial Bus controllers item on the bottom of the list
Right-click on BlackBerry Smartphone and choose Properties
Click on the Driver tab
Click on the Driver Details button
You should see one driver. I saw two. The one the BlackBerry likes is the RimUsb one.
So here's what NOT to do: We tossed the entire driver that was the "extra". This effectively made using my mouse and keyboard impossible, as they are USB, and sent my poor husband into the basement to find a million-year-old keyboard (and then a mouse) with the old fashioned kind of connectors (PS2). Bleh. Don't do that.
Here's what I did that worked (not saything this will work for you -- this modifies the Registry so better do a system backup with that backup and restore if you're nervous about this sort of thing):
From the start menu, choose run, and type regedit to get into the Registry editor.
Follow this file path: Computer, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, SYSTEM, CurrentControlSet, Control, Class
Click on: {36FCE60-C465-11CF-8056-4445535400000}
If there's an item on the right called "UpperFilters", delete it. (see pictures)
Hope this helps someone.

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off".

Where does Mail keep its hidden cache of auto-complete email addresses. I am plagued with an incorrect email address I can't get rid of. Have made sure it's deleted from Contacts and made sure it's deleted from "Previous Recipients" list in Mail. But it still keeps reappearing ... obviously a secret cache file hidden somewhere?

Autocomplete has nothing to do with this problem.
From the Mail menu bar, select
Window ▹ Connection Doctor
Look for a disused SMTP (outgoing mail) account in the window that opens. Double-click it. Another window will open, showing a list of all the outgoing mail accounts. The unwanted one will be selected. Click the minus-sign button to delete it, then click OK.
If there's more than one unwanted account, repeat.

Of course you do because you're no longer on the same network.
Connect to your work's VPN connection and then share the files

Can I get my GTX 670 card to be compatible with Prem Pro CC and Speedgrade cc on my windows machine?

Can I get my GTX 670 card to be compatible with Prem Pro CC and Speedgrade cc on my windows machine?

No need to hack anything in CC:
"(...) This is no longer necessary in Premiere Pro CC. As long as you have a reasonably modern card with at least 1GB of VRAM, you will still be able to enable that card in the Project Settings dialog. A warning message will appear letting you know that your card has not been certified by Adobe, but once that dialog is clicked through you can use your GPU."
See details here:
http://blogs.adobe.com/premierepro/2013/06/adobe-premiere-pro-cc-and-gpu-support.html
AFAIK SpeedGrade uses CUDA and/or OpenCL depending on availability, so no type or model white-list, with this one limitation only for Direct Link on Mac: only NVIDIA OpenCL is supported (NVIDIA CUDA and AMD OpenCL are not currently available with Direct Link on the Mac platform).

Have a look in the Extensions menu. Click Firefox button | Add-ons | Extensions.
Remove if you see it in there.

How I can solve this problem or manipulate it ports 80,443 are closed by ISP and they don't want to open it

hi,
I see that I have a particulier abonnee of my ISP , which has closed all the ports for security reason and they don't want to open any of it 80,443 ect.
suppose If I want to use Essential server 2012 how I can solve this problem , essential wants domain name whith A record.
I asked DDNS service provider if I lease from them a domain name whith A record would that help to open or manipulate the port 80,443 they said that I have to solve this problem myself . they lease only domain names with dynamic dns records.
so what can be a solution the ISP provider won't open this ports , how I can solve this problem . domain name with ip adres is not helping so what it's go to help?
thanks
johan

The domain name in this instance is only used for remote access, and is seperate from the active directory domain name.
If your ISP blocks port 80 and 443, and you dont intend to use remote access anyway, the wizard will likely not complete successfully whether you have a valid domain name or not.

Can't Get Rid of Shadows Behind icons.

I left my imac on last night without sleep mode so that the linux would do any self repairs needed. In the past I have done that with success. Normaly the screensaver comes on during the period in which I've turned off the sleep mode. For some reason the screesaver never came on. When I awoke this morning I have an annoying shadow in the form of a square or rectangular box behind every icon on my screen, including the dock and also behind the cursor. The shadows are made up of small vertical black lines in rows of 6. Is there anything I can do to get rid of these shdadows?

How can I get rid of some of the crap on my ipad.Like newsstand stocks etc didn't want them.Just like everything Else on these things they can tell us what I can have on something I bought.Also I want thumbs back on safari.How do I do all this.

Hi I hope my question will be answered on here apple can't.

Think of it this way...
There's a lot of stuff that's in iOS5 that you'll probably never use. You don't worry about trying to delete that stuff, do you?
Some of the Apple apps have direct ties into the iOS which makes it difficult to selectively delete them.
No way to get rid of tabs that I know of.
Let Apple know what you think here:

How can I get rid of this constant popup "To display this page, Firefox must send information that will repeat any action that was performed earlier"? Thanks

<blockquote>Locking duplicate thread.<br>
Please continue here: [/questions/810630]</blockquote><br>
I'm an avid eBay seller and shopper. Every time I move from one of my items back to my eBay main page I get this pop up "To display this page, Firefox must send information that will repeat any action that was performed earlier." How do I disable the message? Running current version of Firefox for windows and Vista.

Are you getting that anytime you visit a page? Or after you hit the 'refresh', 'back' or 'forward' button?
This error is not usually an error telling you that anything is broken, it's warning you that you are re-doing something you have already done. The page that you are trying to re-access, or refresh was a page that was doing something. Maybe you told the page to search for something, or you were filling out a form, or perhaps doing something like adding something to a shopping cart. Firefox warns you in case it's something you really don't want to do again; for example, accidentally buying a second toaster, or re-sending a comment form.
If you only were searching or navigating around a page, it's generally ok to press the 'Resend' button.
This safety feature is not unique to firefox, I can't offhand think of a browser that doesn't have it (though the wording may vary).
However, if you are getting it constantly, every page you visit, on every website, all the time, then it's a bug.

Can't get rid of desktop's icon in sidebar? There are two of them! (w/pic)

I was trying to clean up my home folder when I accidentally dragged the "desktop" icon into the trash. I drug it back out and put it back in there, but now, when I go to open a file in another program, I see TWO desktop icons!
I don't see two of them in the regular finder sidebar, just anytime a "browse" box is open.
How do I get rid of it? Thanks!

My guess is it is automatically adding a Desktop item to the open file dialog, and it is displaying the one you manually put there. Remove the one you added, then go to the Finder Preferences and check the Desktop item in the Sidebar Prefs.
