Removing Short Cuts from Finder Tool Bar

Hi
I have got some email, folder and question mark icons on my Finder Task bar. I can't clear them using preference or right clicking. I can't drag them off ether. Does anyone have any idea how to clear them?
Thanks

If you placed an item in the toolbar, then hold down the COMMAND key and drag the item out of the toolbar. If it's an item that is put in the toolbar by the OS, then select Customize Toolbar from the View menu of the Finder, then remove any item.

How to remove random icons in Finder tool bars...

How do I get rid of these things? My finder windows all have, in addition to the normal items, the poster art for an MP4 file I haven't watched in weeks, a question mark and the icon for an app I rarely use. When I normally click on the MP4 it opens the movie in QuickTime, on the question mark it tells me the item cannot be found and the app icon opens the icon. When I left click on any of them, I'm only given the options to make all my tool bar items tiext, text and icons or customize my tool bar but in the customize option there is no way to remove the MP4, question mark or app icon. Why are they there and how can I get rid of them?

Dominic,
Why would you bother to take the time to respond to a question you refuse to answer? If searching relating items had proven useful, I would not have posted my question. Why do you waste your own and everyone else's time posting completely unhelpful responses? What do you get out of that? Why are you trolling a board which mainly exists for problem solving if you have no interest in solving any problems? What's wrong with you?
Best.

How to remove an icon from customize tool bar

Try clicking and holding the icon while holding the command key down. Drag it from the toolbar.

Remove "Business &Financial" from my tool Bar

When I first open Firefox, I get a screen with a heading at the top:"Business&Financial News." I can't get rid of it. Will you remove it permanently for me, please?

I would guess that the "Business & Financial" is either set as a home page, or is being loaded by some other software. If you actually have a toolbar of that name it could be some plugin or other software and it may need removing from Windows 7.
See

I accidentally moved iPhoto off from my tool bar. Now i get the message that iPhoto can't open because it may be damage or incomplete.

I accidentally moved iPhoto off from my tool bar. Now i get the message that iPhoto can't open because it may be damage or incomplete. Can someone help?

To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.

I cannot access gmail from any opiton, web address, or tool bar. it gives an error of cannot find root? other pages from the tool bar work ie, utube, or g +..............I have checked my cookies and all are accepted. Specific message is: This page isn't redirecting properly Firefox has dected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete. this problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

I have alike problem: I can access my account on Google+ or YouTube but when I try access GMail or Calendar I see error message about invalid redirect to https://accounts.google.com/CookieMismatch ("server redirects to this address in such way that request will never complete") with comment that this error usually occures when cookies are disabled. But I see that cookies are enabled in FireFox Setup. What's wrong?

* If the menu bar is hidden then press and hold the Alt key down, that should make the Menu bar appear (Firefox 3.6 on Windows) (see [[Menu bar is missing]]).
* Make sure that you have the ''Navigation Toolbar'' and other toolbars visible: View > Toolbars .
* If items are missing then see if you can find them in the View > Toolbars > Customize window.
* If you see the item in the Customize window then drag it back from the Customize window to the Navigation toolbar.
* If you do not see that item then click the Restore Default Set button in the View > Toolbars > Customize window.

How can you get the unknown previous owners on iPhone 5 Apple ID account be removed old device from Find iPhone ?

After recent update 7.0.3 iPhone 5 started activation after I put in sim and did not accept sim bc of Apple ID of previous owner was still on the iPhone and can't activate it without the previous owner removing the account from find my iPhone .

No, you first use common sense then you put it in a company IT policy document. So you are saying that you cannot create an Apple ID for each individual, because it is a hassle? So I guess it is also a hassle to create company email accounts because there are many people "coming and going"?
Have the IT department create an Apple ID for each user with a "temporary" password. Then the user can change it. Once the emplyee leaves, he turns in his phone and gives the password to IT so they can deactivate his Activation lock and reset the phone. Or do what razmee209 has suggested.
I guess the above might be a problem in your company where it is apparent that people are getting run over by buses all of the time and dying every hour.

How can I make disappear the finder tool bar in the second monitor?

How can I make disappear the finder tool bar in the second monitor?
(I have to use ProVideoPlayer, a professional application for presenting videos and I really need a clean second monitor!)

After changing that setting and logging out and back in as it indicated, do you still have two menu bars?
If you are already set up that way and want to move the menu bar to the other monitor, drag it there in the Arrangement tab of the Displays system pref.

Your reply is blank. The forums do not accept attachments, so if that's how you tried to post a screen shot please come back to the web page and use the camera icon to embed it in a post, like this:

Some of the tools have disappeared from my tool bar in PS CC. How can I get them back? I have burn but dodge has disappeared.

The deeper levels of tools have all disappeared from my Tool Bar. Clicking on the arrow beside the tool does nothing? How do I get them back? I have restarted both Photoshop and my computer and this does not help. Thanks.

Try "Reset All Tools" Right-click on the Hand Tool in the Options bar, or whatever tool is active, and click on Reset all Tools from the menu.
This screen shot will show you where that is.

Creative Cloud icon disappeared from Apple Tool Bar after I installed some CC updates. Does somebody know what the problem can be?

Creative Cloud icon disappeared from Apple Tool Bar after I installed some CC updates. Does somebody know what the problem can be?

I had a similar issue. I closed the Cloud icon, and when I went to open it again, it just died.
I uninstalled Adobe Creative Cloud, went to the Adobe CC download page and requested a trial copy of PS, being sure to enter my CC name and password. It then reinstalled Adobe Creative Cloud, and all is working again (I hope).
