I have an opaque rectangular at the bottom of my page. how do I get rid of it?

I don't have plugins or extensions installed. I've tried safe mode and resetting firefox. I seem to be updated. I don't know where this box is coming from. It doesn't matter what site I'm on, it's there.
version23.0.1
I have a screen shot taken but don't know how to attach it to here.

Hello,
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
Then perform these steps:
*Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
*In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
*In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
*Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
* [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
* [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

    I have lost the icons for Word, Excel, iTunes, etc. from the bottom of my desktop - how do I get them back?

    Easy-these are just aliases. Do a cloverleaf+F/command+F (Find) and they should appear. Either create an alias and drag it to the dock-or there's an "add to Dock" command in the Finder. so click on whichever app you'd like to add to the Dock,  then add to Dock and it should appear there. If something isn't in the Dock that doesn't mean it's gone for good. It's just an alias
    well, hope that helped

    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 keep getting this pop up - To view this web content, you need to install the Java Runtime Environment. How do I get rid of it. 

    Most likely, you have a web plugin that depends on the Java runtime distributed by Apple, such as the Facebook video calling plugin or the "NexDef" plugin for watching baseball streams. If you no longer need the plugin, remove it. Otherwise, install Java.

  • I have a horizontal line across the bottom of my screen how do I remove it?

    Re: Macbook Air mid 2011, I have a horizontal line across the bottom of my screen, it appeared when I was updating my iPhone, How can I remove this line from my display?

    It may be a GPU or display issue. In both cases, make a backup of your Mac and take it to an Apple Store or reseller to get it repaired.
    To check whether it is a GPU or display issue, try taking a screenshot by pressing Command, Shift and 3 keys. The screenshot will appear in the Desktop, so open it and check if the line appears in the screenshot too. If so, it is a GPU issue; if not, it is a display issue.

  • 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.
    Look here for help on managing iCloud storage.

  • Suddenly i have an error pane directly under the normal display area. How do I get rid of this

    I have a sidebar with the bookmarks and then the Tree-Style Tabs add-on as a sidebar. The right hand side of the screen was previously dedicated to the active site. Now suddenly it has been split into 2 horizontal sections - the upper part with the web-site and the lower part with a pane containing error messages and warnings. How do I get rid of this error pane, which is a real pain.

    That is the classic error console and not the Browser Console that current Firefox releases have as part of the developer tools.
    *https://developer.mozilla.org/Tools/Web_Console
    *https://developer.mozilla.org/Tools/Browser_Console
    Are you using an extension that adds this version or the error console?
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> 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

  • My ex husband had the kid's iPad.. how do I get rid of his info and ability to track me?

    Hello,
    I am recovering from a control freak.  Please help.  My ex husband took off with the children's iPad for over a year.  So the warranty is expired.  How do I keep the games he put on there (like Angry Birds) but get rid of a "restrictions Passcode" he refuses to give me and get his AppleID off of there and most importantly take his ability to stalk me via GPS tracking away?
    Yes he has been stalking me.
    I would like to add an internet browser and be able to have my own restrictions passcode so that when the children are not supervised I can turn off the internet. 
    How do I get rid of his passwords and ability to track me and set the iPad up for my children.  (I have no money, no child support and definitely no cash for tech support.)  I would deeply appreciate the help.  Even after I find a new job, it will be tight.
    Thanks so much!

    You'll have to restore the device, but with out the restricions passcode you'll have to put it into recovery mode first.

    hello, please go to ''firefox > addons > extensions'' & remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, things that you have not installed intentionally, don't know what purpose they serve, etc).
    <br>also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there.
    <br>finally, run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] & [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner].

  • I have 60GB other data after updating to iOS 8.1, how do I get rid of it?

    I updated my iPhone 6 to iOS 8.1 last week and now I have 60GB "other" data on my 128GB phone. WTH? How do I get rid of it?

    Hmm, I did receive an email saying that the thread was deleted, but did not explain why for some reason. It sounds like the Level 7 guy caused this. I will call Apple tomorrow to find out who is responsible. And see if I can lodge a complaint against that user. Maybe it was because of what the Level 7 guy was saying.
    There was useful information posted in that threat that addressed the issue that I am experiencing. I will try to reiterate from the apple website, it says.
    Recovery mode
    If you've never synced your device with iTunes, or haven't set up Find My iPhone, you'll need to put your device in recovery mode. Then you'll restore your device as new or from a backup.
    This will erase the device and its passcode.
    Disconnect all cables from your device.
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button, then "slide to power off" to turn off your device.
    Press and hold the Home button and plug the device into your computer. If your device doesn't turn on automatically, turn it on. Don't release the Home button.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
    If iTunes doesn't open automatically, open it. iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode.
    Click OK. Then restore the device.
    If your device doesn't go into recovery mode, try steps 1–4 again.
    They suggested that I try this over again until it works. It did not work for me the first time.
