I suddenly have BING as my search engine. I checked my settings and Google is my search engine. I can’t seem to get rid of this BING any suggestions on getting rid of it and getting back to Google?

Hello
I did remove Bing from the drop down menu, but it is still in Firefox as main search engine. I also did a back up and restore. Nothing has worked so far. I read a post that people were able to delete Bing from Explorer. I guess using Explorer will be my last resort.

    Is this in safari?
    try going into settings, safari and clear history. You may also want to clear cookies (means you will need to sign back into sites)
    It's possible that that page is a popup ad of some sort that can't run, for example a flash based ad.  You may have picked the cookie up browsing the internet and now that it's in there the only way to get rid of it is to clear your history and cookies.

  • When opening a new tab, Pogo with Yahoo search pops up first - how do I get rid of this

    When clicking on a new link, the page changes to Pogo.com with a Yahoo search bar mid screen until the new tab starts to load, then it reverts to the originale page. Im using vista with yahoo as a home page, links open in a new tab. Tried changing home page to Google and reloading different releases of ff 4., started after latest updates of microsoft vista - help!

    It took me most of a day to figure this out, but I finally did, after uninstalling the Yahoo toolbar all over the computer, including Internet Explorer but when I went back to Firefox it was still listed on my toolbars, and continued to produce the Pogo search screen whether the toolbar was enabled or not. I found the answer by accident by phrasing it slightly differently on Firefox help. I have XP, but the basics is go click on Tools, then Add-ons, then Extensions. Uninstall Yahoo toolbar and that should do it. Mine is now free of it. The point being that the download came in with something else (in my case a game I was trying out) and you need to get rid of the download on Firefox.

  • When I open a new tab, an internet search option pops up that Idid not OK or install. I can't find where to get rid of it. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    When I open a new tab, I just want it to be blank. I think it may be hijacked but I can't find how to delete/erase the internet search that pops up instead. It's called internet search and just has a magnifying glass as a logo.

    Clearing the cache fixed this for me. Before doing this though, I HIGHLY recommend booting into safe mode (assuming you are using Windows) and run the latest version of Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware [http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php].
    UPDATE: Well...that worked for a while. That page is back. I still recommend scanning your machine if you have not yet done so.
    UPDATE 2: I've found that the application causing the issue is "Cartoonly", which you should see as an extension. You can't remove it from Firefox, you can only disable it. Search your entire computer for "Cartoonly" (even if you have ran MBAM as suggested above) and delete EVERYTHING having to do with that garbage. Your new tabs should be clean and the extension should be gone as well. :)

  • HT201365 I recently updated my Ipad 2 with iOS7 and I suddenly have 794 emails in my inbox which were previously read and deleted.  how do I get rid of them without doing one at a time?

    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.

  • 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

  • To display this page, Firefox must send information that will repeat any action (such as a search or order confirmation) that was performed earlier. How do i get rid of this message? or do i need to just drop firefox all together?

    To display this page, Firefox must send information that will repeat any action (such as a search or order confirmation) that was performed earlier.

    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.

    You can't delete it. you will need to do a restore.
