Icons in the taskbar-too many

I've have become familiar with java to the point where i know that when i run a java supported program it appears in the taskbar and when i close that program the icon goes away. well my icons have not been going away and not only that i have as many as 5 or 6 in there. I don't know if there is something running and I don't know how to get rid of them. Help please.

You are not the only one. At least 2 other threads have been started regarding this same topic, one of them by me.
As of now there appears to be no way to remove the speech bubble or replace the default icons. I've looked into skinning, but not deeply as I'd rather stay as stock as possible; I removed every one of the preinstalled apps except Kindle, Docs2Go and File Management.
I would like to see stock icons pushed in an update. Better yet would be stock ICS icons if they decide to push that.
Also, the speech bubble in the middle of the navigation bar is kind of annoying. I could live without that.

  • How do o get my browsing history to show on the mozilla icon in the taskbar?

    I'm not even sure if I'm using the correct terminology, but here's the problem. During a session, if I clicked on the Mozilla Firefox icon on the taskbar (bottom left of my screen), it would show all of the pages I'd been looking at, and I could just click on them to go back and forth. I could minimize a page and click on the icon and the page would show there so I could restore it.
    Now, only my current page shows up on the icon. How can I restore my history to the icon on the taskbar?
    Thank you for your time,
    Julie

    1. Type about:config and press Enter in the address bar.
    2. Type browser.taskbar in the Filter box, and double-click the browser.taskbar.previews.enable to enable the setting. Double-click it again to disable it.
    3. Enjoy.

  • "Safari cannot open the page – 'too many redirects'"

    Problem
    iPad issue impacting our secure website clients. Error message reads “Safari cannot open the page – ‘too many redirects’”
    History:
    Recently, some of our secure website clients using Mac/Safari 4.0.5 faced issues, all related to one common problem that went away with Safari 5.0 & Mac OS updates. On all the three occasions, we observed that the error occurred when the HTTPS redirects contained the port number in the URL. During our discussions with Applecare personnel (case number was 350144) we understood that there have been problems with Safari 4.0.5 "not being able to handle port numbers in the URL properly". The issue went away with the launch of Safari 5 and Mac OS updates which followed the browser release.
    Understandably, the resolution to the issue was fairly opaque and if I were to hazard a guess on what the problem could have been it should probably be something to do with Safari not being able to read cookies after these redirects.
    Questions
    1) Have any of you encountered such a problem on Mac/Safari 4.0.5 and are now facing on iPad?
    2) Any workarounds / solutions / learning that you have come across and can share
    Thanks!!

    Hi and welcome...
    On a Mac. HTTPS redirects can be the result of proxies. Open System Preferences / Network. Click: Advanced tab then click: Proxies
    If any of the boxes on the left under: *Select a protocol to configure* are selected, deselect, click OK.
    Here's just one example of the HTTPS / Proxy issue: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12255869&#12255869
    For Safari - iPad. Tap Settings / Wi Fi / Select your network by tapping the blue arrow. Configure network settings there.

  • I have Windows Professional and I used to be able to move the curser over the Firefox icon in the taskbar and it would give me a telescoped view of all open tabs, now it just shows the tab that I'm currently viewing. How do I fix this?

    I have Windows 7 Professional and I used to be able to move the curser over the Firefox Icon in the taskbar and it would show me a telescoped view of all open tabs, now it just shows the tab that I'm currently viewing. How do I fix this?

    Hey MikeDo,
    Do you have the option checked for ''Show Tab Previews in the Windows Taskbar''? If not, just go to ''tools->options->tabs.'' You can find more information on what each of these settings do in the Knowledge Base article [[Options window - Tabs panel]].
    Hopefully this helps!

  • If you enter your password on the ipad too many times and your sim card locks, is there a way of recovery without replacing the sim card?

    If you enter your password on the ipad too many times and your sim card locks, is there a way of recovery without replacing the sim card?

    That doesn't lock the SIM card, it just locks you out of the device. 
    If you forgot (or don't know) your passcode, restore the device from backup on the last computer it was synced with when the passcode was turned on... this will remove the passcode. If you do not have access to the last computer it was synced with, you will have to force it into recovery mode & restore as a new device.

  • Notification "Show an envelope icon in the taskbar" for anadditional Mailbox

    I am working with Outlook2010 and have an additional E-Mail Account in Outlook. Is there a setting to configure the "Show an envelope Icon in the taskbar" for the additional Mail account? I only receve the envelope icon if i receive a new E-Mail
    on my Primary Mailbox?

    Hi,
    I tested in my lab, I could see envelope Icon in the taskbar when the primary mailbox receive new message, but there isn't envelope Icon in the taskbar if the additional mailbox receive new mails. It seems that it is by design.
    Actually, we have a dedicated forum regarding the Microsoft Office, I recommend you ask this question in this forum, you can get better help there.

  • CRTL + S in Excel 2010 causes the icon in the Taskbar to move to the end.

    CRTL + S in Excel 2010 causes the icon in the Taskbar to move to the end. If I just use File > Save or the Save icon in the Quick Access toolbar it doesn't cause the icon to move in the Taskbar. This is a recently change in behavior. Has anyone
    else experienced this and know how to make it stop moving?

    Hi,
    From your description, I actually understand your issue clarity. Thus, I assume your scenario, please see the below image:
    Do you mean that the Excel icon would move to the end in Windows Taskbar when you pressed Crtl+S?
    If it's correct, the issue might be caused by the keyboard shortcut conflict between Excel and some third-program. I recommend we perform the Excel with
    Windows clean boot. And check if the issue still occurs.
    If this issue not occurs with Clean boot, please check the third-party programs one by one.
    If I misunderstanding something, please feel free let us know. I'll appreciate for uploading some screenshots here.

  • Firefox icon in the Taskbar will not start on the first click, sometimes needing to click 2 or 3 times for it to open (and this is after a fresh reboot with Firefox not running in Task Manager.

    Upon a fresh reboot the Firefox icon in the Taskbar will not work on the first click, sometimes it will not work at all and I need to go to Start-> then click the Firefox icon in the Start menu. Why is it that the icon won't start up on the first click?

    Same issue - however firefox will open but I can not click on only of my tool bar shortcuts - the writing on the google age is greyed out so I can not click on anything. Still no resolution? I have deleted the folders and re-installed - it will open and then locks and it will not work????

  • After updating to Firefox 24, Windows 7 64-bit breaks on reboot. The network icon in the taskbar not ready (blue circle stopped).

    After updating Firefox 24, Windows 7 breaks after reboot. The network icon in the taskbar is not ready (blue circle over wifi network icon). But I can't do much. I can not open the network and sharing center (never opens). Even the task manager will hang when I click to show processes from all users. I have to do a system restore to have a functioning network again. I never even launched Firefox.

    Thank you for your response. I agree that the steps you list should have a working Firefox 24, but it did not work. I don't know what other information to gather to help assist in diagnosing the cause. If I restored to a good state and then (re)installed Firefox 24 and reboot, I have a problem.
    Thank you.

  • I have two icons on the taskbar

    On previous versions of Firefox, in Windows 7 Ultimate, I have it pinned to the taskbar, and I used to open from there and it opened normally and the icon stayed. Now, in the new version (6.0.2) I want to do the same but when I start the Firefox, in the taskbar appears another icon than the usual, so I have two Firefox icons in the taskbar and I don´t want to have two, but I want to keep it pinned to the taskbar.

    Launch Firefox using the icon on the taskbar. When it opens and you see the second icon appear, right click on the ORIGINAL one and select 'unpin from the taskbar' - the original icon will disappear. Then right click the second icon and select 'pin to taskbar'.
    Close & open Firefox again to verify that this has solved the problem.
    Hopefully should be job done!

  • I want a new window to open when I click the Firefox icon on the taskbar. I don't want to have to right click, then choose "open new window". I have Windows 7.

    I want to be able to open a new browser window when I click on the Firefox icon on the taskbar. I don't want to have to right click and select anything. I have windows 7.

    This is a "pinned" icon? Try holding the Shift key when you click it -- that seems to work for me.

  • Firefox no longer shows on my full screen. When I rollover the icon on the taskbar, it shows the way it is suipposed to be but it does not ever show full size.

    Firefox was working fine yesterday. Now it's not coming up at all on my full screen but when I rollover the icon on the taskbar a mini screen comes up that shows the way it should be but it doesn't come up on the fuill screen. I did a system restore but it didn't help.
