New download of version 4 has colored snow in the background and it is worse than distracting. How do I get rid of this?
I downloaded V.4 of Firefox, and it has colored snow all over it. I cannot find the way to get rid of it. It is distracting to the point that V.4 is entirely unusable. What happened. I never downloaded anything from you guys that was this broken.
The cross indicates an overflow of text. Increase the size of the box as needed. Since you didn't indicate that some of the text is missing it may just be an invisible character or that a little more space is needed below the text.

I have tried all the troubleshooting and everything.
Follow these steps please.
#In the location bar, type '''about:config''' and hit Enter.
#In the filter at the top, type: '''keyword.URL'''
#Double click it and remove whatever's in there. You'll see it revert to "Default" and "String".
#Go to File | Exit
#Restart Firefox, go to the site you want to set as your homepage.
#Go to '''Tools '''| '''Options '''| '''General'''.
#Make sure it says "''Show My Homepage''" in the first dropdown menu.
#Click the button called "'''Use Current Pages'''" to set the homepage to the one you have on the screen. -

I am getting an error message saying "an unknown error has occurred" everytime I try and down load an App. My ID and password are entered correctly. What am I doing wrong and how do I get rid of this?
If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
Launch the Console 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 Console in the icon grid.
Select "/var/log/install.log" from the file list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar. Then select the messages from the last installation or update attempt, starting from the time when you initiated it. If you're not sure when that was, start over and note the time. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting. -
I don't like Firefox 4.0 and want to go back to the last version.. how do i get rid of this version?
the other version let me access my email on the homepage now i have to go to bookmarks...how do i get rid of this version???!!!
That sounds like the difference between the new Firefox home page '''about:home''' and the previous Google Search page which has '''GMail''' at the top if you used GMail.
You can change your home page so that it points to what you had before, which It would be something like:
* http://www.google.com/firefox?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official
Note on Google pages
* They won't show GMail at the top until you have gone to GMail
Directions to '''reset your home page''':

More on Search and on Keyword Shortcuts
* [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/search.htm Search and Substitution Shortcuts especially for Firefox users]
* [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/kws.htm Firefox Keyword Shortcuts]
But I don't really understand why you or anyone else would want to use such a page for a home page, it is redundant. You have as many search engines as you want in the search bar, the default search is Google.
You can invoke '''GMail''', any search, any bookmark, any bookmarklet with a [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/kws.htm keyword shortcut] .
'''You're not stuck with how the toolbars have been changed''' in Firefox 4.0, '''this is Firefox''', you can '''customize''' it. That is why Firefox became so popular, you can customize it how you want it with Customize Toolbars, Extensions, Themes, Styles.
You can make '''Firefox 4.0.1''' look like '''Firefox 3.6.17''', see numbered items '''1-10''' in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 look like 3.6)] -
I have a new iPad. I am using Comcast as my email provider but when I send a message, it pulls up the facebook email addresses for my contacts instead of the addresses stored in my comcast account. How can I get rid of the Facebook email addresses? The comcast addresses are stored in the comcast (xfinity) app. I do not use the "mail" or "contacts" apps ....I go straight to comcast (xfinity). I wish I could start over!!! thanks.
iPadI could be wrong, but it sounds like Facebook imported to your contacts. I have the Xfinity app on my new ipad, too, but none of my stored contacts from the online version are showing, only what I manually entered into the iPads contacts are there. When I did add the FB app, I did not grant it permission to push and pull from my ipad (not a fan of FB knowing every detail about me), so that may be where our difference lies. You could try to open the app and change your privacy settings, or delete it and then reinstall without granting permissions to integrate.
I'm sure someone here with a lot more knowledge then me can probably diagnose your issue better, though. Good luck! -
my mac book air has a virus which is creating a lot of issues...how do i get rid of it? is there a free software to detect it and remove it?
There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
You may have installed one or more of the common types of ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it. It's been reported that some variants of the "VSearch" malware block access to the page. If that happens, start in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime, then try again.
Back up all data before making any changes.
One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, ask for further instructions.
Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. It may have come from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
Malware is also found on websites that traffic in pirated content such as video. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
or
Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
if it's not already checked. -

I am trying to update my wifes 4s to iOS 7 but her "other" has so much space taken up that it will not update. How can i get rid of "other" data space?
tgarmy wrote:
Now it tell me Itunes cannot backup because an "error" occured???? If i can't back it up then what do i do?
Restart the computer and the iPhone might resolve a backup issue. Also, try resetting the iPhone by holding both the sleep/wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least 10 seconds until the Apple logo reappears. Afterward, attempt to restore again.
Before you restore, consider a few other things... One particular onging thread regarding "other" data has users finding that text messages with photos and/or videos taking up the "other" space. Deleting those text conversations helps regain space. (Before deleting, transfer any photos and videos you want to keep to your camera roll or computer.) In addition, check for any deleted phone voicemail messages and delete those to as well as voice memos.
If you decide to restore, the recommendation is to restore as new phone because the backup probably has the "other" data.

Ever since the last update, I'm having problem accessing my e-mail account. I keep getting an annoying bar at the top of the screen "Firebox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page." I have to keep hitting the allow button, sometimes twice. And when I do get into the accounts the bar jumps in and out every time I open a new e-mail, or delete and old one.
How do I get rid of this. I've had this account for years, with a very reputable private e-mail provider. This is nuts.See:
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"
The setting in "Tools > Options > Advanced > General" is meant as an accessibility feature, as you can see by the label of that section, so that people with disabilities or people who use screen readers do not get confused and is not meant as a safety protection to stop redirecting.

i get a pop-up window saying the current version of Safari does not support the community toolbar. How do I get rid of this?
You need to uninstall the Community / Conduit toolbar add-on.
Locate the files in bold print and move them to the Trash. The first five are in your root /Library
/Library/Application Support/Conduit
/Library/InputManagers/CTLoader
/Library/ScriptingAddtions (anything CTLoader realted)
/Library/Receipts/<Toolbar name>.pkg
/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/CT2285220.bundle
The next one is in your Home folder.
~/Library/Application Support/Conduit
When you're done, try Safari. -
