I have an older I-Pad and have daily recurring spam. Always the same and some going back to January. I delete them every day and they delete them in the trash folder but they keep coming back. How do I get rid of them ?

I have an older I-pad and have recurring spam. How do I stop it ??? I delete it every day and then delete the trash folder but it keeps coming back. Thanks.

For those kind of mails, unsubscribing doesn't work. they're breaking the law trying to scam you, they're not going to respect unsubscribe. Unsubscribe only works with real companies. Such as unsubscribing from Gap company mail etc. Spammers can actually use the 'unsubscribe' as a confirmation 'hey, there's a real person here, hit em hard'
I'm not really familiar with g-mail, but most mail programs have filters you can set up, such as telling it 'everything with dating in the title, send to the trash' etc.
You can do some research on that or have someone help you with some hands on help.
If that e-mail has ever been used for e-greeting cards, or given to enter contests, etc, your address is out there. You will never get rid of it totally.
If it's really, really bad, sometimes what you have to do is abandon the address and get a new one and only give it out to people you want to contact you. Don't enter it on websites, or use e-cards or things like that that are spam collection mechanisms.

I have junk mail that I delete but it keeps coming back, any idea how to get rid of it?

I have junk mail that I delete but it keeps coming back, any idea how to get rid of it?

Hello,
Use a Browser to log into your WebMail & remove it from the Server there.

I have an add on that keeps popping up called object browser. I have removed it several times but it keeps coming back. Any way to get rid of it for good?

I keep trying to remove it but it keeps coming back.

That's a potentially unwanted program. You can get rid of it by simply uninstalling the program, or using an anti-malware if all else fails.
First of all, try uninstalling the Object Browser program.
'''To uninstall the Object Browser program...'''
#Press the Windows Key+C simultaneously on your keyboard to bring up the Charms bar.
#Search for ''Programs and Features''.
#Click the ''Programs and Features'' search result.
#In ''Programs and Features'', find ''Object Browser'' and uninstall it from your computer.
#After uninstalling the program completely (and restarting your computer if you had to in order to complete the uninstallation), open Firefox, go to your Add-ons page, and remove the ''Object Browser'' add-on.
If that didn't solve your problem, try some anti-malwares.
'''To scan for Object Browser...'''
'''''ADW Cleaner'''''
#Download ADW Cleaner from its [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ website].
#Open the downloaded file to start ADW Cleaner.
#Scan for malware using the program.
#Clean any infections.
'''''Malwarebytes'''''
#Download Malwarebytes from [http://malwarebytes.org this link].
#Open the downloaded file to install the program.
#Upon completion of installation, run the program and scan for malware.
#Remove any detected threats.

Some tabs keep coming back that I don't want - how do I get rid of them?

Some tabs keep coming back that I don't want - how do I get rid of them?

See these articles for some suggestions:
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Firefox+has+just+updated+tab+shows+each+time+you+start+Firefox
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page - Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' symbols
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
It is also possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
Delete the files sessionstore.js [2] and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
* Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

There are several login keychain items I'd like to get rid of. I've deleted them but they come back after several hours. How can I get rid of them for good

There are several login keychain items I'd like to get rid of. I've deleted them but they come back after several hours. How can I get rid of them for good.

Back up all data before proceeding.
Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select
          Change Settings for Keychain "login"
In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
From the menu bar, select
          Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
If the box marked
          Keep login keychain unlocked
is not checked, check it.
Select
          Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.

On my ipad, there are dozens of "recently purchased" songs supposedly available for download from iCloud. I don't recognize most of the songs - they could have been downloaded 6 years ago by my daughter. How do I get rid of them?

So there are all these songs, from ADELE to Zapp and Roger. I don't recall purchasing any of them. Some of them were clearly purchased years ago by my daughter, who now has a different account (and doesn't know the current password to my account).
They do not show up anywhere in iTunes except on the iPad. They are not downloaded to the iPad - but I don't want them to show up in the purchased index. How do I get rid of them? Do I have to join iMatch or whatever to do this?
Also, this may explain why we're being told our iCLoud storage is full - there are actually hundreds of these unwanted songs.
Any ideas?

Purchased music does not count against your iCloud storage and you cannot get rid of them in the purchased tab.
What is backed up
You get unlimited free storage for:
Purchased music, movies, TV shows, apps, and books
Notes: Backup of purchased music is not available in all countries. Backups of purchased movies and TV shows are U.S. only. Previous purchases may not be restored if they are no longer in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
Some previously purchased movies may not be available in iTunes in the Cloud. These movies will indicate that they are not available in iTunes in the Cloud on their product details page in the iTunes Store. Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer available in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.

I no longer have access to the email address used as my Apple ID and when I choose to answer security questions, my DOB had to have been originally entered incorrectly because it keeps failing. How do I get rid of my old Apple ID and create a new one?

Contact Apple, either through the link in that article or by phoning them. Alternatively, just create a new Apple ID; previous iTunes Store purchases won't be transferred to it.

I have these black boxes around all the images i add. why are they there and how do i get rid of them?

i have black boxes around all the images i bring into pages. why are they there and how can i get rid of them?

Pages rememebers the last setting you used on images.
So if you had a border on the last image the next one you bring in will have one too.
To change that select:
Inspector > Graphic > Stroke > None
Spend a little time exploring the menus and particularly the Toolbar and Inspectors whcih are in reasonably logical progression from big things down to smaller details and clearly labeled.
It is also possible that you have show Layout on which outlines objects on th screen so you can see what's what. To change that:
Menu > View > Hide Layout

I need help,i changed my primary email,now when i want to buy itunes,the old email name keeps coming up,how do i get the old primary email off of my phone

i changed my primary email,and now when i go to buy itune songs,my old email keeps coming up,how do i get my old email off of the phone

The only thing I did was I went to the Apple.com , logged in and changed my primary e-mail since I will be losing the old email soon ( I have a different job). I said update info and verified the email was correct. I just went to settings on icloud and logged out and tried to log in and now it won't take anything. I don't even know now which e-mail they want the primary one or recovery, it won't take any of the 3. Not sure what else to try at this point, I guess I can't buy any more music.

This happens with you are both syncing data such as contacts on your devices with the same iCloud account. This will result in the data being merged and synced back to all connected devices. To correct this you need to have different iCloud accounts on each device.
To do this, on the device that will be changing iCloud accounts go to Settings>iCloud and turn all data that is syncing with iCloud (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off. When prompted choose to keep the data on the iPhone. After everything is turned off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. (This will only delete the account from the phone, not from iCloud, so the other phone won't be effected by this.) Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different ID, then turn data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On. When prompted, choose Merge. This will upload the data to your new account. At this point you will have two separate iCloud accounts on each phone with identical data.
Next, you'll have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and delete the unwanted data (for example, deleting her contacts from your iCloud account and vice versa). These changes will be reflected on each device and things should now be fixed.

I recently updated my Ipad2 to iOS7 and suddenly have 794 emails in my inbox which were previously reviewed and deleted. How can I get rid of them without doing one at a time?

You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup. If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup. You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone. However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.

I've just tried downloading two addons to try and fix this from the forum but one wasn't compatible with Firefox 28 and the other started downloading something very dodgy to do with .xpi file converters.
So any help would be great, thanks.

first you have an anti virus problem... duplicated message almost always occur through one of two reasons. Anti virus program barfs on a message (relatively common) Server side message corruption (becoming more common, particularly at Yahoo)
Turning off anti virus checking will generally allow the message that causes the issue to download. logging into the webmail portal and deleting what you think looks like the "next" message to download will usually fix corruption that causes duplication of downloads.
Now to the cleanup.
This add-on should do that for you https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/remove-duplicate-messages-alte/?src=search
