Removing icons from the navigation bar.

I have two icons on my navigation bar that I can't remove. One is from Amazon and the other is from Ebay. I've tried holding Command and dragging them into the trash. Nothing. I've tried using the "customize" option and dragging them there. Still nothing. Any ideas? My Macbook has Mountain Lion as OS. Thanks in advance for any help,

Sorry, I should have been more clear. The navigation bar on my web browser, Firefox. There's a navigation bar at the top of the screen, just under the URL address bar. There are some plug in icons here, but somehow also these icons from Amazon and Ebay. I'd like to remove them. What do you think?
thanks,
bgstreet
PS:  check out on the screen shot, the right upper corner, the icons are there.

  • How can I remove icons from the menu bar?

    Help tells me to hold down the command key and drag the icon off the bar. But all that happens is that a dropdown menu appears which lists various actions which can be performed by the application. None of the actions listed include deleting the icon. When I try to drag the icon (still holding the command key down) it does not move at all.
    I am running OS X 10.7.4.

    Do you mean the screen's menubar or the Finder's toolbar? Would you take a screen snapshot of what you are trying to remove? Some menubar icons are generated by the application and cannot be dragged out. Instead you have to quit the application that installs the item. I suspect this applies in your case.

  • How to remove icons from the menu bar

    Hi,
          I've read all the other ideas on how to remove or re-arange them ( CMD - drag off etc ), well none of this works for me !!
    I have a Macbook Pro running 10.6.7. So does anyone have any ideas please

    Usually the apps belonging to these icons have an option that allows you to hide the Menu Bar icon by allowing them to run as an app in the dock. However, certain applications like Caffeine must show their icons as otherwise you wouldn't be able to access them.
    For example, Dropbox doesn't allow you to remove its menu bar icon:

  • I want to Remove RSS icon from the address bar when I click on My SMF Forum

    I have a SMF forum when I click on the login page I see an RSS icon in the right of the address bar next to a star.
    The forum opens in an RSS to subscribe, which is stupid as it is not an RSS feed, it is a forum. I want to get rid of this and do not know how to do it.

    This is a feature of firefox, although it may have been removed from firefox 4beta ( at least in default set up, no idea why). The appearance of the RSS icon within the location bar is intended to inform that RSS feeds are available from the site in use. You may note that this firefox forum we are using has such an icon displaying in the location bar, that is because feeds are available allowing you to track the threads, no doubt something similar happens with the SMF forum you mention.
    If it is possible to remove the RSS icon from the location bar it will certainly not be straightforward, other than by upgrading to 4beta, and that is available now, and may be run whilst the stable version firefox 3.6 is still installed on your computer. (iirc there is an add-on available to add the rss icon to Fx4)
    If a post answers your enquiry, you may wish to use the button alongside it to mark it as solved.

  • How do I remove the Adobe updater icon from the menu bar?

    How can I remove the Adobe Updater icon from the menu bar? It's pixelated and looks broken. Any help is appreciated.
    I found this thread, but it doesn't work. When I click on the Updater icon, then click "Open updater," it opens the Creative Cloud instead. I haven't found a way to remove the updater icon from within Creative cloud.
    Remove Adobe Updater from OS X menu bar?

    Anyone know how to remove it?
    Thanks!

    Found it, thanks to later posts in that thread I mentioned in the OP. Here is what they suggest (you have to use Photoshop):
    1. In Photoshop, go to Help >Updates:
    2. Click "Preferences" at the bottom right.
    3. Uncheck the box labeled "Notify me of new updates on the menu bar." Then click "Ok."
    Hope that helps anyone!

  • How do I remove the Box icon from the menu bar?

    I have an account on Box, which is a sync program.
    Before the last Box updated, I could hide its icon from the menu bar, but now it is not possible and I really don't want it there.
    I have tried to drag it out of there, by pressing CMD and dragging, but nothing happens.
    Is there any other way to remove it?
    Thanks in advance for any help, and sorry for the bad English.

    The problem is that I don't have the option to remove it anymore. And I don't want to uninstall it wither.
    Anyway... Thanks for trying to help me. I'll have to get used to it.
    Thank you again.

  • How can I remove icons from the Finder sidebar?  Were transferred when I set up laptop from my desktop computer.  Tried dragging off but that didn't work.

    How can I remove icons from the Finder sidebar?  Transferred info from my Mac Pro desktop computer (using target mode) and there were folder icons on the Mac Pro Finder sidebar that are now on the MacBook Finder sidebar, even though these folders do not exist on the MacBook.  Tried to drag them off, which is the usual way to get rid of folders that the user adds to the sidebar (as opposed to those that can be added via the Customize Toolbar dropdown menu) but was unsuccessful.  I then unchecked all of the Customize Toolbar menu items and the folder icons still remained.  What else can I do?

    Did you hold the Command (Apple) key while dragging them off the sidebar? That usually makes them go *poof*.

  • How can I remove an application icon from the loc. bar and prevent it from auto loading?

    I don't know the "lingo" of how-to's with Firefox; but I subscribed to www.catalogchoice.org. Somehow, the icon appears to the right of my print icon in the location bar and automatically pops-up when I go to any website. I can't find how to remove it from the toolbar and remove it from Firefox. I cancelled my subscription with them but continue to have this annoyance.

    Can you attach a screenshot?

    Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot.
    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 or otherwise make changes.

  • I need help recovering the DOWNLOAD ICON from the side bar thing

    i don't know how but the download was gone from the side bar one day, i guess my parents did something accidentally and took it off. But i don't know. is there any way for me to get that icon back on the side bar?

    To your other post - where is the home folder - - it's the little house in the Finder sidebar with your username after it.
    Yanda the panda wrote:
    but the download folder is completely gone from everywhere
    it only pops up a window when i download something
    That is not the downloads directory - that's the Safari local Downloads window. Not the same
    Now, are you saying that the real Downloads directory has been removed - deleted?
    Click on that home folder - the house icon and look carefully for a Downloads Folder. It should look like this:
    If you do not see it, perhaps it was moved.
    In the Finder search window, enter downloads. Select "This Mac" and "File Name" and see if it pops up.
    If not, do you have a backup? TM or something else?
    If not, we can create a new Downloads folder but alas, everything in the original is gone.

  • When I drag and drop an icon from the address bar to the desktop is does creat the shortcut but will not display the website icon, only the firefox icon, how can I display website icons?

    When I drag and drop a website icon from the Forefox address bar to the desk top, the short cut is created but the icon that appears is the firefox Icon. I want to disply the icon from the website that the short cut refers to. I have checked all I can think of in my computer to no avail.

    You have to assign the favicon yourself to the desktop shortcut (right-click the shortcut: Properties) after you have dragged the link to the desktop.
    You can usually find the favicon in Tools >Page Info > Media and save the icon there.
    Otherwise use the main domain of the website and add favicon.ico (e.g. mozilla.com/favicon.ico ) to display the favicon in a tab and save that image to a folder.
