VERY ANNOYING PROGRAM!!!

I have a very annoying program that got installed and now cannot be installed. I have tried everything, including AppCleaner and I even tried going directly to its file path. It just won't go away, there is no traces of the program where spotlight can find it. The icon is still in the toolbar and it never leaves. Any suggestions?
The program that I am asking about is next to the Sopohs icon and before the LogMeIn icon.

How do I unhide all files?
This is the fastest way to do it on an occasional basis.
I use a application I built using Applescript, but I don't see that you would be appropriate here.

InDesign (CS4) takes focus back after switching to other program: very annoying

I am getting more and more annoyed by the fact that InDesign keeps taking back the focus after closing a document. I am working in InDesign (Mac OS X 10.6.4), I close the document and switch to (for instance) the Finder and suddenly I am back in InDesign again. It happens DAILY that I am doing something thinking I am NOT in InDesign anymore while I am there (again). For instance, it happens quite frequently that I want to open a Photoshop file and that I suddenly notice I am not in Photoshop but back in InDesign again. Even worse: it also happens that I get a dialoge and press No and find out I just closed another InDesign document which I didn't save yet because I thought I was in another program already...
In short: very annoying. What is causing this...? Why does InDesign keep focus? When I go to the Finder, I want to stay there and I do NOT want InDesign to become active automatically!
Anyone knows what is causing this and, more important, if there is a way to get rid of this annyoing behaviour?

I guess you mean when you have InDesign document open and you cmd-tab to let say Photoshop the Indesign document window is still accessible by one click even if Photoshop menu is active on the top.
This is solved in CS5 by "Application Frame" option.
What concerns the CS4 I do believe that this behaviour is simply how Apple OSX handles the document's windows, Not much you can do unless you will minimize all documents before switching to another app.

I think there is a very annoying bug after the latest update of firefox, can I talk to someone, or chat with someone so I can get rid of it

Since the latest auto update of my firefox browser I am experiencing strange issues. Every evening when I stop working, I close my browser (closing all the tabs that I am working on and in the morning, I restore the session) . For many years everything worked just fine ... untill after the last auto update of the firefox browser .. all of a sudden a got 302 errors ( a blank page with the description 302 and I believe "page moved here" or something to that extend ... i try to click the link and get nowhere.
I first noticed it on a few wordpress pages (backend ) that I was working on and which were restored from the previous day ...
thinking it was a server error, since we have several vps and dedicated servers .. i contacted the company who hosts our servers ..
they looked into it and apparently .. there were no issues on the server side and neither on that particular computer ... but our server hosts told us .. that it is probably browser related and seemed to have something to with a bug with the cache of the browser
we didn't know what to do .. it was very annoying .. but at that point it only happened once on a hew pages .. so we decided to see what happened the next time
Next time we did not restore a session with wordpress pages .. but with the google search engine open and on a few other tabs logged into social media .... and as was saidn by our server hosts it was indeed not related to work that we did on pages on our servers ... since that time even the google search engine homepage ... showed us ... moved here
Can you pease look into it and fix this .. we are doing the same thing as many years on the same computer also a few years .. so it is not anything we do wrong either .. it is most definitely browser related
so can you please fix it asap .. since when we work on wordpress .. that is not the only thing that goes wrong .. we also have difficulty uploading updates ... when updating sometimes after the update of any particular change on a wordpress page is done ... we are also redirected to a blank page .. so the updated page does not want to load ... in that case we have use our back button ...
which sends us back to the right page ... but with the old data on it ... then we have to refresh that page .. and only then we see the page updated ... so it seems that there is an issue in both direction with the caching of the browser after the last update
Kind regards,
Robert

uninstalled firefox ....deleted all files still remaining under mozilla firefox directory in program files ... to avoid having to reprogram all my settings, reisntall all addons as well .. I did not remove anything from mozilla firefox that is stored in either appdata or under the windows users directory (if any)
... the as suggested reinstalled the latest version of the firefox browser using the link you provided in the email ..; tested and several issues still remain present and unresolved ....
so please this is urgent or I will have to jump browsers and start using chrome .. because we work 14 hours a day 6 (sometimes 7) days a week, to get ready for the launch of our newest venture and we cannot lose that much days on browser related issues ... so please instead of putting me through week long step process .. of do this .. do that .. can you please actually look into the issue from your end .. I use firefox for so many, many years thta I deserve this kind of support .. thnx Robert

I'm a new user and learning, I bought and installed Premiere Pro cs6. I got a nice video clip but has a baby cried in the background and very annoying. My question is, is this noise remover is separate from the cs6 or I need to get this software downloa

I'm a new user and learning, I bought and installed Premiere Pro cs6. I got a nice video clip but has a baby cried in the background and very annoying. I have tried all of the sounds in Prem cs6 but didn't work. My question is, do I need to get a separate sound software download and install to be able to use it?

In the CS versions, there was some audio capability in PrPro but you needed to get a separate audio program for major work. Lessening a baby definitely qualifies as major work. That's lessening, i dont mean eliminating. Adobe's audio program is Audition. There are others "out there'. In the CC versions one just downloads Audution also.

I get a general failure when I click on links in my email. This happens more frequently now that I've downloaded the latest version of Firefox. Very annoying. Help!!!

I get a general failure when I click on links in my email. "General Failure" is followed by a link and I have to click ok to get rid of it. This happens every time I click on a link in my email. I've turned my computer on and off several times, but it persists. It's very annoying and I'm considering returning to Internet Explorer because of it.

This is a known bug, and has been for years. It occurs when Firefox is your default browser and some glitch (or program) changes that default. Thankfully, there's a fairly easy fix, though it does involve monkeying around in the Registry.
(Note: These instructions apply to Windows Vista and 7 only.)
1. Click Start, type regedit, and then press Enter.
2. Navigate to the following entry: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\FirefoxURL\shell\open\ddeexec
3. In the center pane, double-click the Default entry, then remove whatever value is there (it'll probably be a weird string of numbers and commas).
4. Click OK, then exit Regedit.
5. If Outlook and/or Firefox are open, close them, then restart them.

I am using windows 7 pro this issue has drove me crazy for some time, now finally it's fixed by doing the exact same steps as above, hope this works for everybody that is having this problem. I just had to share this with my fellow firefox users. :)

VERY annoying thing with XServer "Can't open display" after a while

This issue is *very* annoying I would love if someone could help.
I had this issue for a long time, thinking I'll fix it. I googled, but everybody seems to have the same problem, but no fix (only temporary ones).
So here's the problem : I installed archlinux on my (very old) laptop, everything works great, now I even installed the XServer, which however is causing this problem:
everything works good for a while, but after a while, I can't launch any new programs, but existing ones work good... If I try to start any X-App in an already running terminal, it gives me:
No protocol specified
xterm Xt error: Can't open display: :0.0
However, all already running apps run fine, they even can create new windows!
The only fix I found for this is to kill & restart the xserver with ctrl+alt+backspace.

Firefox 5.0.1 open a website automatically at a new tab from time to time which is very annoying

I have Firefox version 5.0.1 on MS windows XP. My problem is that Firefox open a website automatically at a new tab from time to time which is very annoying.
I have scanned my computer for viruses and malwares using lot of programs but this did not fix this annoying problem.
The websites which automatically open are:
- http://www.netadfusion.info/r.php
- http://www.humananatomycourse.com/
- http://www.lonelylonelylonely.com/
Any idea how to fix this problem?

this will stop and remove netcut and the redirect problem.
I have tested this in vmware and I have emailed the guy who makes netcut and also posted this on cnet downloads.
no antivurs or malware program will pick it up i think it down to the activepacket.dll

Very strange but very annoying problem?

Hey everyone, quick question about something that while not a big deal is very annoying. For some reason even though im the only person who uses this laptop its my brother that os x seems to think is the owner. In other words any scenario where os x has an auto fill or something it always puts my brothers name or email in. Incredibly irritating and ive no idea how to fix it.
There are no other accounts besides my own and ive created a card in the address book for myself and set it as "My Card", that is all i can think to do.
Any help appreciated.

Actually in Safari its fine, its more programs that are the problem. Say iMovie for example it will fill the wrong details automatically into the template because somewhere on this thing it has my brother as the primary user/owner.

I am very annoyed at the Creative Cloud set up and the non-stop issues and problems

I am very annoyed at the Creative Cloud set up and the non-stop issues and problems! I am paying monthly for this service and it is constantly failing in some way! So far in three months I have had to uninstall and re-install Photoshop THREE times because it stopped working properly and Illustrator I have had to do that same to TWICE! That isn't including the other apps that have had issues! I don't have the time to constantly be un-installing and re-installing all or some of the Creative Cloud because your developers are not making a product that works consistently for the money you are charging! It is costing me more than just this monthly fee! And I am even less impressed with the fact that I cannot email someone for assistance in resolving these issues. Really Adobe?

Adobe contact information - http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html may help

You actually cannot do anything to your ipad when its locked but look at pictures the time and date, you need to restore it, and if it dosent let you restore, good luck chuck Heres how to restore it: Okay, i only know the itunes way soz, lol. Try to connect your ipad to itunes, if it does let you then you should be able to select the device you have in the corner somewhere, once you do that you should see a screen that looks sort of like your ipads setting, you should have a button that says "Restore" click that and your ipad should be restored. If that dosent work you should try going to your regular office depot or something. Good Luck!

Ever since I updated to iOS 8 on iPhone 5, sometimes when I press the home button just once it will open the app switcher or even the assistive button. Anyone else have this problem? Is it an iOS 8 glitch? Please help - very annoying.

I updated to iOS 8 on my iPhone 5 yesterday and now when I press the home button even once, it opens the app switcher (which is supposed to only open after pressing the home button twice quickly). Sometimes pressing the home button once even brings up the assistive button (which for me should take three button presses). This did not happen before I updated my software. Has anyone else had this issue? Know how to stop it? Very annoying and at this point feel like I should have waited before I did the update.

Hello ..do you have a history on the phone? did you get it wet? was it dropped? have you been using an authentic ORIGINAL apple charging cable?
this problem occurs when there is a short circuit in the phone... you most likely got it wet at some point and maybe didnt even realize it? The moisture in the phone hasb probablly oxidized one or several capacitors, integrated chips thereby short circuiting the phone. that is why he phone is acting erratic because these short circuits inadvertently "activates" other circuits.. eventually the phone will not turn on anymore- the heat will stress the citcuit board and you will have discontinuity along your main power lines and the phone will cease to function..i see this alllll the time in our shop
the fact you upgraded to ios6 will even work the phone harder because its a more powerful operating system taking full advantage of the A4 chip..

My iPhone 5s (16GB) is stuck with 3948 photos (shown on the iTunes storage bar) on and I can not find a way to delete them all! It's very annoying as it takes up 6.54 GB of space and leaves me no room to add films, music...etc on to it. Please help me!!! I have already tried the numerous articles Apple have sent my way and I am still having no luck.I'd be eternally grateful if anyone could find a solution for me as this has been a problem for almost a year. Thank you.

If they were put there via iTunes sync process, then simply untick the Music box before syncing again.

Very Annoying EXPORT problems

The first time i installed Lightroom, all the things went well, but i don't know why, one day i tried to export a photo and it appeared one of those common errors with "Send Error Report/Don't Send Error Report".
I can't do anything besides the preset export settings. I installed windows again, and the first thing i did besides installing the correct drivers for my pc, was to install Lightroom. I tried all versions of Lightroom, including Lightroom 2 Beta. I don't know why it worked once, and after a while it didn't work. If it never worked i could have said that my pc is a mess, and i need a new one, but why did it work at that time? (i tried to go back with all the installations i made since it worked, but nothing).
I really need help, because it's a very annoying problem.

Hello fellow Minnesotan!
Welcome to the forum.
Have you tried to repair permissions using Disk Utility, and trashed GB's ".plist" and ".cs" files, then restarted the computer?
And about the looping, just do it in GB and avoid all this mess. LOL!
Good luck and let us know how it works out!
