I want to get rid of Yahoo as my default tool bar, and everything it came with.

I was asked some time ago if I wanted to choose Yahoo as my toolbar, and I accidentally said yes. I want the original toolbar back, with the Google search box, no animated weather, facebook ebay tabs, etc. Going to Customize and choosing default settings didn't do it. Help!

That would be from a '''Java''' plugin update, it comes with extra crapware, see picture at http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/266/javainstall.png/

Tool bar, and everything else is gone, how do i get it back?

When i open illustrator the tool bar and everything else is gone, only the top menu is still there, i tried to activate tool bar under window menu, but that option is also gone.
I tried to use tab key, but it does not work either.
Anyone knows what to do?

Now what I told you is so, this is what is causing this and you will either make the effort to understand or you will not solve the problem.
You did try to make an alias and you goofed up, that is correct you made mistake, this is user error.
That is the first thing you have to accept if you cannot so be it, but I will never try to assist you again.
This is the problem I can easily reproduce as I know what you did.
Here take a look, does this look familiar.
Does the icon on the left look familiar?
That is the application outside of the Adobe Illustrator folder.
That's correct you moved it either on purpose or by mistake outside of the folder
and that is why the two of you do not have menu items and tools.
Now the way to fix this is the way I wrote before and this is user error.
And I have met other users on the forum who could not admit they made a mistake before as well.
I am writing this actually for users who really want help and have no problems admitting the did something in error.
I have nothing else to say about this

I want to get rid of Yahoo which was part of a download.

I agreed to a Firefox download. What was downloaded was Yahoo pages and toolbar. I don't want them. How can I get rid of this.

This link shows how to remove the Yahoo toolbar - http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_toolbars

Do not want Yahoo tool bar, want google. get rid of Yahoo toolbar?

I have not been able to find how to get rid of "piece of garbage" Yahoo tool bar....

Normally, you can remove toolbars, which are a type of add-on known as an Extension, on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then you should find it listed on the right side. If there is no Remove button, then you usually need to find it in the Windows Control Panel, Uninstall a Program, and remove it there.
Success?
If you installed the "Yahoo edition" of Firefox by accident, you can switch to the regular release by downloading the installer from the following page and running it (no need to remove your existing setup):
https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/
You might still need to clean up a few settings, but let us know how you do.

I want to get rid of yahoo fron toolbar, tell me how or it''s time to change browsers

i don't like yahoo and do not want it on my toolbar, i'd hate to change browsers but i will if i have too

Updated to 4 a while ago, but the last versin of 3 is lingering and reappears, want to get rid of it, as well as disk images and other clutter that usually goes away after an update. Any ideas?

really two things: one: the last version of FF 3 keeps reappearing when, for example, links in emails require opening the browser. Example: an email from netflix with a link to the site which I clicked on to update some info. Instead of going to/thru the current browser FF4, the previous version appears---more accurately the "firefox updated" page for 3.16 or whatever it was. Why is this still there? Why is there more than one copy there in the first place, after updating?
also, related perhaps, why does the FF4 disk image and application folder always appear when I open FF4. Usually they go away after the update and first restart, but now they appear every time I open the browser? I have snow leopard 10.6.7 if that tell u anything

Only if you had previously installed an app that would periodically email you its location. Not that the iPod has to br on and connected to the internet.

How can I get rid of the transparency in the Tab bar and get a solid colour

I have upgraded to Firefox 4 and because the menu bars were 'ugly' put in a persona.
Now I find that the Tab bar is transparent, which makes it hard to read.
How can I change the Tab bar to a solid colour and still keep the persona.
And if there is a solution can it please be put into simple terms for someone who only has a bit of computer skill.
thanks :)

You can try a solid persona.

Reset Firefox to its default state
If you're having major problems which you can't resolve, start fresh with only your essential information.
then I got my themes addons etc
everything seems to work - but what a pain - I hate yahoo and its spawn babylon - all that add it without permission should be sued for the time effort and aggravation
that they cause - I am tempted to start a boycott!

I no longer can get "Tools" or "Options" at the top of my screen. Google and Yahoo toolbars dominate the entire top of the screen. I want to get rid of them and go backk to a regular screen shot. How???

Go to Tools | Add-ons | Extensions, find the Yahoo Toolbar and click Remove ;)

I want to get rid of the Bing screen but there is no "menu at the top of the Firefox window" for me to "select Tools and then select the Add-ons menu item. "

I suddenly have a "Bing" screen when I sign onto Firefox---and I want to get rid of it. The support section of Firefox says
1. "From the menu at the top of the Firefox window, seledt Tools and then select the Add-ons menu item."---but I see no "menu item" nor Tools, much less Add-ons.
2. "In the Add-ons window, click on the Extensions panel."---but how do I find the Add-ons window?
3. Find the Bing Bar and Search Helper Extension in the list and click Disable for each of them."---but what and where exactly is that?
At the top of the screen is only a Yahoo icon on the left and to the right of it a search box, "Web Search,", "My Apps," Yellow Pages," "Weather," "Updates," and "Skype." to the right of those there is a green cross saying "Add more apps. to your toolbar" and to the right of that a sort of gear shift looking icon saying "toobar settings."
So, in short, how do I get rid of the Bing screen and how do I access those Tools?
Thanks.

To get rid of Bing Search Window..............

How can I get rid of Yahoo Search starting up everytime I click + to open a new tab

I recently downloaded a product (can't remember what it was) but
it included the Yahoo Search Toolbar. Now, although I have
disabled the ToolBar, everytime I click on + to open a new tab it
ALWAYS brings up Yahoo Search Box before I can type in the ULR I am wanting to open. It's driving me mad.
Can anyone tell me how to get rid of Yahoo Search Box. It does
not appear in "Add or remove programs"
Thank you

Can't get rid of Yahoo on toolbar after installing flash player

I installed the latest Flash player yesterday on Firefox. I had Google on the toolbar for searching, but after I installed flash, it was replaced by Yahoo. Now I can't get rid of Yahoo. I've gone through Firefox's instructions, I've gone through the control panel, I even uninstalled flash player. But Yahoo is still there. I want it gone! How do I get rid of it???

How do I get rid of "Yahoo! Search - Web Search" that comes up every time I click on a new tab?

How do I get rid of "Yahoo! Search - Web Search" that comes up in address bar every time I click on a new tab? I have to delete it in order to go to the site I want. Very annoying. I can not find it in program file.

Got this fixed.
I deleted Yahoo as a search engine.
To do this: on the right hand side of a toolbar there is a pull down menu which contains "manage search engines". Select this and remove "Yahoo".
BTW: the "Tools" - "Options" - "remove hardware acceleration.. " did not work.

Inbox comes up as the home page for the internet. I have no idea how it arrived and is not in my programme list. Lots of other people seem to have the same problem and no one has come up with a fix. I want to get rid of Inbox completely.
