Script to list and remove browser extensions?

I want to write an AppleScript to list and remove extensions from Safari, Firefox and Chrome.
The problem is, I'm not finding any obvious ways of doing this in the AppleScript dictionaries for those apps. Does anyone know of a way to do this in an elegant manner, or am I stuck parsing the files/folders where these apps store their extensions, and trying to figure out which ones correspond to the ones I want to find and get rid of?

Bump.... Anyone got any ideas?

Hi Friends,
Please check this below script, It is finding the duplicate items and removing it. This script is not working to find the duplicate items from document

How to remove Yahoo Extension

Got an email from Yahoo about new Yahoo Extension for Firefox. I installed it, but did not like it. It did more than I thought it was going to do, it changed my home page, default search engine, etc... so I went to my Add-On manager and Removed the extension. Reset my home page, etc, but even though the Yahoo Extension no longer shows on my add-on manager page, it is still active. When I click on the + to get a new tab, it automatically opens www.yahoo.com/?ilc=301&fr=ff-tab instead of giving me a blank page. How do I remove this.

Well... this did clear the problem, but I had to reconfigure Firefox and was unable to get it back the way I had it... so, found instructions on how to restore my old firefox data by creating a new profile, deleting all the new info and copied the data from my "Old Firefox Data" folder and went back to my original settings, which included the new tab always going to Yahoo problem. Kept searching for solution online and found instructions on how to reset the NewTab option in the config file... here are the steps that were much easier and less painful that doing a total reset of Firefox. All I had to do was reset the newtab option:
"manually reset the new tab page by entering about:config into the firefox location bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up), searching for the preference named browser.newtab.url and right-clicking & resetting it to its default value (about:newtab)."
This worked perfect and got me what I needed and firefox is back to normal for me with all my add-ons, extensions and prefrences sill in place.

WorkFlow Issues: Appending (not replace) Attendee Field in Calendar List and Email Variables (including .ICS file link)

Kind of new to attempting any custom development in SharePoint. Working with 2013 and have the 2013 Workflow Farm setup/working. I am trying to have a calendar that users can register to appointments via custom list. I
have the list that pulls the title into its own "Event" field as a lookup. Also have a workflow on the calendar that adds the current user as an attendee and made that field "not required". I'm trying to accomplish this:
1) Have the Custom List update the Calendar list attendee field with the username. Currently it wipes out what is there and replaces with the "Created By" name. Tried to set a variable that would put the current attendees in a string
and just add the current user, then use that variable to update the attendee field. No luck. Ultimately if I can understand this enough and get fancy enough, I'd setup a workflow that can have someone delete their own registration item in
the custom list and remove only their own name from Attendees...
2) Have a workflow kick off an email that sends the registrant the calendar details. Have tried to pipe in variables to get the ICS file (some variation of this )
If I put the List ID in brackets I get an error about having that and variables in the same code for an email workflow. In any event I can't really get the email workflow to give any kind of nice piped in values the best looked like this and had
the wrong date: You registered for {"results":[{"Id":22,"Value":"Test Event 8"}]} on 1/1/0001 12:00:00 AM

Hi Jason,
seems your requirement a bit complex, we forum team may have limited resource regarding this issue.
you may consider to use infopath for example from this 3rd party article:
http://www.bizsupportonline.net/infopath2007/programmatically-add-item-sharepoint-calendar-infopath.htm
or for general example:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-001/infopath-help/customize-a-sharepoint-list-form-HA101821257.aspx
the article is to add an item to your calendar list, so then you may need to do wipe or other procedures, by infopath you may add the data as
you need.
if should infopath feature may not be possible to use in your environment, i may need to suggest you to open an advisory case to us, by contacting our representative,
https://support.microsoft.com/

Aries

How to use single ant build script to package the application with and without native extensions

Hi,
I am using iOS native extensions for Adobe air. For this I am listing the extensions in the application descriptor file. Since the package with native extensions are meant to run only on device, I want my build script to work without native extensions too to be able to run on simulator. Is this manadatory that I need two separate application descriptors/basically two build scripts to compile and package them? Please suggest and let me know if more explanation is needed.
Thanks,
Swathi.

Hi
This is a known issue addressed by CR205204
As you said, IBM actually does not have rt.jar in its JDK - they have moved contents of rt.jar into various jars.
IBM is not using org/apache/crimson/tree/ in their JDK at all.So the error shows up in the end of build even if it succeeds
You may need to add crimson.jar to wlwBuild classpath, since it is not part of IBMs JDK.
Note: the build will work even w/o crimson.jar giving a non build related IDE exception in the very end.
Thanks

How do I get rid of funmood browser extension toolbar and search redirector . I suspect it's a malware. when I try option in firefox a window opens up asking me about setting changes

I tried to uninstall the toolbar through Control Panel and changing browser settings and it worked temporarily a couple of times, but the toolbar keeps coming back. Now a window has opened up and can't be closed. it says:" browser settings change, an unknown change was detected on your browser search settings: keep current settings" or "I'm aware if this change and approve it". I have 2 accesses to firefox: one on the bottom toolbar and one on the screen. This window stops me from accessing firefox from the toolbar. It looks like very soon I won't have access to firefox anymore. I found a site that claims to remove it but provides ni identity: http://removal-tool.blogspot.com/2012/01/remove-funmoods-browser-extension.html is it safe to try it?

Hi Jessbee. In Firefox, go into Tools>AddOns>Extensions, and disable then uninstall the toolbar from Firefox. Reboot Firefox. You also have to go into Control Panel/Programs and uninstall the software from there. Then run Malwarebytes Antimalware to get rid of the leftovers.

[JS] Need Help Removing File extension (in CS2 and CS3)

Hello All.
I have a menu in a dialog that needs to list some file names, but without their file extensions (which will always be .txt in my case). The following is some code that successfully does this in CS3, but I also need it to work in CS2. Do you have any other ways to do this? One code that works in both versions (CS2 and CS3) is ideal.
myNameWithoutExtensionFunction = function( myNameWithExtention ) {
myNameWithoutExtension = myNameWithExtention
myEndOfFileName = myNameWithoutExtension.lastIndexOf( "." ) // get the last period (.) in the filename
if ( myEndOfFileName > -1 ) {
myNameWithoutExtension = myNameWithoutExtension.substr( 0, myEndOfFileName )
return myNameWithoutExtension
Thanks in advance.
Dan

I realized my mistake. The above code works just fine in CS2. My mistake was elsewhere. The name I was sending to this function wasn't being recognized by CS2. Once I corrected that and sent a valid name to this function it worked. So in case someone needs to remove file extensions, feel free to use the above function!

Powershell Script to Enable and Disable SharePoint list versioning

Hi,
We have a Sharepoint list with a date and time field named 'Today' which we update overnight
via PowerShell script to give the current date and this recalculates other calculated fields
in the list.
All is fine but we have versioning enabled on the list and so we get a new version created everyday.
Is there a way to disable the versioning prior to running the update and then re-enable
after?
This is the script
Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell
Start-SPAssignment -Global
$SPWeb = Get-SPWeb "<SharePointSiteUrl>"
$List = $SPWeb.Lists["ListName"]
$Items = $List.Items
foreach ($item in $items)
$modifiedBy = $item["Editor"]
$modified = $item["Modified"]
$item["Today"] = Get-Date
$item["Editor"] = $modifiedBy
$item["Modified"] = $modified
$item.Update()
$list.Update()
$SPWeb.Dispose()
Stop-SPAssignment -Global

Hi
Here is a quick powershell script to iterate a site collection and remove versioning on all list of base-type Document Library. Also the iteration removes all the current versions of list items. Great for freeing up space and also to make publishing sites
a little more easy to manage content for trusted content approvers!
Check the below powershell script
[void][System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SharePoint")
# Get site
$site = new-object Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite("http://YoServer:1002")
# Iterate all the webs of the site
foreach ($web in $site.AllWebs)
# loop through all lists in web
foreach ($list in $web.Lists)
# Ensure list is of base Document Library
if ($list.BaseType -ne "DocumentLibrary")
# Move on
continue
# Loop through each item
foreach ($item in $list.Items)
# Get the file
$file = $item.File
# Delete all versions
$file.Versions.DeleteAll()
# Remove version from the list
$list.EnableVersioning = $false
$list.EnableModeration = $false
# We still want to ensure check out
$list.ForceCheckout = $true
$list.Update()
$web.Dispose();
$site.Dispose();

I have not been able to select on any search results in iTunes. I uninstalled a browser extension program (Spigot) and I was able to resolve the issue.

I was having an issue with selecting any of the Search Results when I perform a search in the iTunes Store on my Windows 7 professional computer. I went through my installed programs and looked for any programs that were installed around the time I started having the issue. I removed 2 of the programs, one was a Browser Search Extension and the other was Spigot another browser extension. After removing these programs the issue was resolved! I hope this helps others that may have this issue.

Try this:
Change the Apple TV resolution:
Press and hold the Menu and Up button on your Apple Remote for six seconds.
The Apple TV will automatically cycle to the next resolution at approximately 20 second intervals.
Press Play on the Apple Remote to keep the current resolution or Select to manually cycle to the next resolution.

Firefox does not put the file extension ".exe" onto the firefox application, and the browser will not open.

I downloaded firefox 3.6.6 from the website, followed the install directions and the browser does not open. I opened the task manager and firefox.exe was not in the process list. Locating the target using properties from the desktop icon if found that the application file did not have the ".exe" extension that it showed in the icon field for location. I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times with the same result. I am running windows XP Media Center Version 2002 service pack 3.

This would usually only happen if the originals were .doc, .dot, .docm, .dotx or .dotm files and someone changed their extensions. Does your Office installation open docx files created in Word 2013? If not, perhaps the Office installation is
faulty. In that case, try repairing the Office installation (via Programs & Features > Microsoft Office > Change in the Windows Control Panel).

Uninstall the whole worthless "WebSense" product.
Any third-party software that doesn't install by drag-and-drop into the Applications folder, and uninstall by drag-and-drop to the Trash, is a system modification.
Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
I never install system modifications myself, and I don't know how to uninstall them. You'll have to do your own research to find that information.
Here are some general guidelines to get you started. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickMyMac” (a hypothetical example.) First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickmymac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, contact the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickMyMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickMyMac.” If not, open “BrickMyMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button.
Back up all data before making any changes.
You will generally have to reboot in order to complete an uninstallation. Until you do that, the uninstallation may have no effect, or unpredictable effects.
If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase and install OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
WARNING: Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" such as "AppCleaner" and the like that purport to remove software.

Need help with a script for moving bulk users to another OU and removing/assigning groups

I've never used PowerShell before and have been asked to track down a script that can move bulk users from one OU to another, and remove and assign new group membership. I've been googling it for about 30 minutes and haven't really gotten anywhere. If
somebody can point me in the right direction or give some tips I'd greatly appreciate it. I'm sure this kind of task has been done by several people in similar environments I just haven't been able to find those people/examples.

Here's what I've got so far...
Moving to new OU
CSV constructed like below...
DN
TargetOU
“CN=John R, OU=BB,OU=ES,OU=Students,OU=OSD,DC=usd233,=DC=local”
"OU=PRT,OU=MS,OU=Students,OU=OSD,DC=usd233,DC=local"
Import-Module activedirectory
$UserList = Import-Csv "c:\yourCSVhere.csv"
foreach ($User in $UserList) {
$User.DN
$User.TargetOU
Move-ADObject -Identity $User.DN -TargetPath $User.TargetOU
Would this work? I also need to remove the user from two groups and add them to two different groups as well. Would I need to use the addUsertoGroups and removeUserfromGroups commands?
