I do not want Firefox, it is accidently here, I want my AOL back & Firefox interferes, how do I get rid of it?

I don't know how I got this Mozilla Firefox icon on my computer as the main go to thing. Someone else used my computer & I can't get my AOL without going thru Mozilla Firefox now. I want it gone, it is not supposed to come up as my homepage or anything else. I want it gone, it is driving me nuts and interfering and even changed the way my AOL page looks and runs with all the stupid little check boxes each time I want to delete a single email. I want my AOL homepage back & this firefox thing gone, no offense. thank you, Breck

Hello mrmacjohn,
Verifying that any iCloud account that may be signed in is signed out should resolve this error.
On your Mac, open iCloud preferences, then click Sign Out.

If you used iTunes to get the photos on the phone, then use the same iTunes and uncheck the music you don't want and do another sync.

History window opens by default when i open a new window or restart firefox. How can i get rid of that ? its annoying.

History window opens by default when i open a new window or restart firefox. How can i get rid of that ? its annoying

If the History sidebar is closed when you close Firefox and doesn't stay closed on the next start then that can be problem with the file localstore.rdf in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder]
Delete localstore.rdf or rename the file to localstore.rdf.sav in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder] to test if the file is corrupted. 
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Corrupt_localstore.rdf 
(caution: do not delete the localstore.rdf file in the Firefox program installation folder)
Note: 
Deleting the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/localstore.rdf localstore.rdf] will reset the customizations of the toolbars to the defaults. 
You can rename "localstore.rdf" to "localstore.rdf.sav" to test if that solves it. 
Then you can restore the customization by copying "localstore.rdf.sav" to "localstore.rdf" if it didn't work.

My friend's apple ID shows up when I want to update my Apps. How can I get rid of it and see my own instead?

On my iPhone I see my friend's Apple ID when I want to update my Apps and can't seem to login with my own. What's wrong? How can I get rid off my friend's ID and login with my own when I want to update or download apps? I went to Itunes Store in Setting and checked if my ID was still there, and it is so I have no idea what's wrong.

Just used her MacBook to unlock my iPhone as I was away from home. So she backuped my phone and restored it to allow the unlock to work. That's all.
I'm still not clear about what you mean about unlocking your phone. Normally, "unlocking" means entering the password if the phone is locked, which you should be able to do from the phone itself. If you want more help with this, you really need to take the time to furnish all the relevant details.
I have a MacBook Pro, and yes when I connect my iPhone on it it shows up in the devices list.
When you do that & click on the iPhone in the list, then click on the "Apps" tab at the top, do you see the apps you can't update listed there? If you click on the "Store" menu item does it show near the bottom that you are logged in with your own Apple ID?
As wjosten said, it sounds like one way or another, the apps you cannot update were obtained using your friend's Apple ID. You need to delete them from your phone & try buying them again. If they were in fact paid for with your own Apple ID you won't have to pay again; otherwise you will.

I got ''Rick Roll'd'' while on Facebook with Mozilla Firefox. How do I get rid of it?

While on a Group page's wall on Facebook this morning (using Mozilla Firefox), I idiotically clicked on a link resulting in getting ''Rick Roll'd". This has frozen my Facebook account and has frozen Mozilla Firefox. Help. How do I get rid of this?

Very helpful, ty.
FYI for others. I also had to disable the Default Tab 1.0 addon.

I have a blue bar above the internet page tab that says "downloading the latest applications." It hasn't finished the downloading in the 2 weeks since I loaded Firefox. How do I get rid of it?

After I loaded Firefox and used it the 1st time, a blue bar appears above the internet page tab that says "Downloading the latest applications". No matter how long I leave the internet and compute on, it never finishes downloading. And every time I restart Firefox, the same blue bar appears. How do I get rid of this?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== After I loaded Firefox the 1st time, and every time I open the Firefox browser.

This can be a problem with the Silverlight plugin.

Yesterday, a search tab comes on when I start firefox. How can I get rid of it?

I seldom use tabs, so the tab bar was always hidden. starting yesterday, when I opened firefox A search tab is present. A single tab is also present. The search tab is very similar to the search button on the right of the navigation bar. So it is redundant.
How can I get rid of this search tab?

Can you uninstall the "Default Tab" extension as that is considered malware and is causing this search bar? 
Otherwise just disable this extension.

I am college student and my professors require we use Turnitin however Turnitin does not support Firefox 4 how can I get it to work with Firefox 4 or how can I return to Firefox 3

Turnitin will not work with firefox 4 how can I return to firefox 3 or how can I get firefox 4 and Turnitin in sync

The Turnitin system requirements on mention Firefox 3. If it does not support Firefox 4 you can downgrade to Firefox 3.6
To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.
For details of how to find your profile folder see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles

Myinfotopic has appeard and now I have adds popping up all the time that I don't want. I feel infected. How can I get rid of it

I really have liked Firefox but now I am having a lot of problems with "myinfotopic" and all the adds that pop up unwanted. I don't know how it got in my computer and I can find no way to get rid of it. I have a service called Answers by Technical Support and they say the problem comes from your website and they can't fix it. There is an add the runs across the bottom of the screen and before I updated Firefox it would just stay on the screen and obscure whatever I was looking at. There would also be adds that would slip out from the side of the screen on each website I went to. Both types of adds could be removed but there was always another one that popped up when I went to a new site. Also, before I updated Firefox pages would just start opening automatically and I have no idea where they were coming from.
On your browser I also have the security warning coming up 2 times every time I go to my start page to try a new search for something..
I like your browser better than any I have tried but I will have to change if you can't help me fix this.
Please advise what I can do.

Try removing these extensions:
* AllCCheeappPreiicie
* DownSave
Open the Add-ons page using:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. If they can be removed great, if they can only be disabled, disable them for the moment.
Usually a link will appear above a disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the add-ons page and click the link as the last step.
Does that help?
To continue the clean-up:
(1) Windows Control Panel, Uninstall a Program. Click the "Installed on" column heading to see the most recent infiltrations, I mean, installs. Check the install dates often reveals what was bundled with what. Try to uninstall everything you don't want.
(2) Supplement your regularly security scans with the malware cleanup tools listed in this article: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]].
Can you get back to normal?

Somehow, AOL toolbar got installed on latest Firefox. How to I get rid of it permanently?

Hiding this toolbar only works as long as Firefox is active. If I close Firefox and relaunch it, this stupid AOL toolbar reappears. How do I dump it for good?

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

HT4847 How do I unlock my ipad. It Wants me to back up icloud but can't get rid of message to try

My ipad is showing a message that advises icloud has not been backed up for 2 weeks and the ipad needs to be plugged in and charging to enable back up. However, I can't get rid of the message so that I can turn on wi-fi and start back up. This has happened to me before and I ended up having to pay a one off fee of £25.00 for advice to clear the message that was quick to do. Can't remember how to do it though. Does anyone know how to unfreeze the screen please? I have tried holding the wake up button but that just brings up the swipe to power off screen, which does not react to a swipe. Please help.

Reset it by holding the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then release. This just restarts it, you won't lose any data by doing this.
