I cannot get rid of the AOL tool bar. I use FF 14.0.1. Posted solutions for old versions of FF do not work.

This is a problem that occurs on my wife's computer, not this one. The only difference on that computer is that has a D-Link USB adapter as it is connected to our network via a wireless router. Could that have something to do with the problem? Could the installation of the D-Link program have brought along the AOL tool bar with it?

  • How do I get rid of the iCloud Backup alert message?  I cannot do anything with my iPad and cannot get rid of the alert. I have plugged in the iPad with Wifi on, but it won't reset.  Thanks

    Reboot 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • I have an app update on my phone through the app store, but i dont have that app and when i hit update it says the item is no longer available for sale,, but i cannot get rid of the little 1 at the corner of the app store app,, how can i get rid of it

    i have an app update on my phone through the app store, but i dont have that app and when i hit update it says the item is no longer available for sale,, but i cannot get rid of the little 1 at the corner of the app store app,, how can i get rid of it,, i have iphone 5

    You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
    Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store notice. For example, if the App Store says you need to update "Twitter," the hacked app may be "Angry Birds" or something else entirely. Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you have to carry out a systematic search.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
    kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
    In the Finder, press the key combination command-F to open a search window, or select
    File ▹ Find
    from the menu bar. In the search window, select
    Search: This Mac
    from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu initially showing Kind. From that menu, select  Other...
    A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select Raw Query and click OK or press return.
    Now there will be a text box to the right of popup menu. Click in that box and paste (command-V).
    The search window will show all the App Store products you've installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
    At least one of the items listed in the search window is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
    Log out and log back in. Test.

    Correct. You don't use iTunes to get photos off the iPhone.

  • CANNOT GET RID OF THE SPINNING BALL OF DEATH

    CANNOT GET RID OF THE SPINNING BALL OF DEATH.  TRIED MANY FORUMS AND NOTHING FROM APPLE, WHO DO NOT SEEM TO CARE!

    Its actually the spinning ball of cool your jets while I am doing something -- Apple used to use a picture of a wrist watch - which was a better way of saying it.
    I get the beach ball when starting up Photoshop - and in same when going into functions that are in VM or not open because I don't use them that much.
    Other than that - you haven't stated what the problem is.

  • How do I get rid of a new tool bar that appeared after updating to 3.6.13?

  • Updated Firefox, now when I open a new tab, there is two seperate google search bars; how do I get rid of the unnecessary search bar?

    I updated Firefox, and after I restarted it, when I opened a new tab, I found that I now had two Google search bars: one next to where you type web addresses, and one right above my pinned sites (or my frequently visited sites). I'm just trying to:
    1. Figure out why it is necessary to have two of the pretty much identically useful search bars when I really only need one (or can physically type Google in)
    and
    2. How do I get rid of the unnecessary second Google search bar above my frequently visited and therefore pinned sites.
    If you have any ideas of how to remove this annoying addition, I would appreciate it.

    I am guessing that you installed an extension, related to "new tab", which added the first search bar. Firefox 31 in includes a search bar for the "new tab" page; so now you have two.
    Take a look at that extension (Options or Preferences) to see how to disable ones of those 2 search bars. Or see if an update has been released for that extension, specifically for Firefox 31, with an option to disable the search bar.

  • Get rid of the google search bar??

    I want net neutrality. Google must go. I loaded Firefox on windows-xp and the Google search bar still comes up within Firefox. How do I GET RID OF GOOGLE??
    I have used Firefox on Linux also on the same machine.

    webgrunt, this thread posted about a year ago.
    The Search bar is a not a Google search bar but rather it just had Google selected as the search engine at time.
