Want to get rid of update page

Every time I open Firefox, I get my homepage, Plus the You have upgraded page for Firefox. I have tried resetting my homepage, no, it didn't work. I tried unchecking the updates boxes in the Advanced Tab of Tools, it did not work.
I am using the latest update of Firefox on a Toshiba Satellite Laptop.

You can check for problems with preferences.
Delete a possible user.js file and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename (or delete) the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in the current Firefox release.

You can also try to rename (or delete) the compatibility.ini file in the Firefox profile folder.
You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:

    No. You must use a computer to sync and update both devices via iTunes on the computer. The iPad2 cannot replace the laptop for syncing purposes.

  • Bing and Ashampoo have hijacked my Firefox page and I want to get rid of them.

    When I click on the Firefox icon, I am now taken straight to Bing by way of Ashampoo. First Bing appeared and I had to then click on Firefox. Then Ashampoo took over Bing and I still have to click on Firefox. I really want to get rid of them and just get Firefox when I click on it.

  • I want to get rid of the Bing screen but there is no "menu at the top of the Firefox window" for me to "select Tools and then select the Add-ons menu item. "

    I suddenly have a "Bing" screen when I sign onto Firefox---and I want to get rid of it. The support section of Firefox says
    1. "From the menu at the top of the Firefox window, seledt Tools and then select the Add-ons menu item."---but I see no "menu item" nor Tools, much less Add-ons.
    2. "In the Add-ons window, click on the Extensions panel."---but how do I find the Add-ons window?
    3. Find the Bing Bar and Search Helper Extension in the list and click Disable for each of them."---but what and where exactly is that?
    At the top of the screen is only a Yahoo icon on the left and to the right of it a search box, "Web Search,", "My Apps," Yellow Pages," "Weather," "Updates," and "Skype." to the right of those there is a green cross saying "Add more apps. to your toolbar" and to the right of that a sort of gear shift looking icon saying "toobar settings."
    So, in short, how do I get rid of the Bing screen and how do I access those Tools?
    Thanks.

    To get rid of Bing Search Window..............
    Click on View tab / Tools and un-check 'Search' (alias for 'Bing')

    How do I get rid of web pages I'm through viewing?

    Not sure exactly what you mean but while you are using Safari, just tap the X on the left side of the tab to close a it. Only the active tab shows the X. You have to tap on a tab to make it active or the foremost window.
    If you want to clear the history - Settings>Safari>Clear History.
    These are instructions for Safari in iOS 5. What version are you running?

  • How to 'get rid' of a page flow template

    I added a page flow template instead of a page flow and wanted to delete it (get rid of it forever) but couldn't see how to. So I selected 'exclude project content'. Then I created a new page flow with the same name but it went back to the other item I excluded. Then I tried to change it to a page flow but I couldn't get it back into my project. I finally closed JDev and deleted the project and am starting over. How does one delete one of these?

    I'm not sure I understand you correct.
    If you want to get rid of the template, go to the file system folder and just delete the template file. If your jdev was open you have to refresh the project. It's normaly better to close jdev before deleting the template in the file system and then start jdev again. Jdev then will rescan the directories and delete the file from the jpr file.

  • I have Fox, CNN, and BBC always open on my screen using AOL within Firefox. I want to get rid of AOL. What can I do to have the same screen (yes, bookmarks are on the left.

    I want to have several web sites open on my screen at the same time, in "boxes" showing the headlines, like I now have on my AOL screen.
    AOL is not working right, and I want to get rid of it.
    Thanks for your help

    Firefox 4+ versions use a new build-in home page named <b>about:home</b> with a Google search bar on it (no internet access needed to load that page).<br />
    That about:home page only shows some snippets and has a button to restore the previous session if applicable.
    If you want a home page without the Restore Previous Session button and the snippets then set another page as the home page like www.google.com used in Firefox 3 versions.
    You may be seeing a similar ad on the Google site to install Google Chrome.<br />
    In that case use the close X on that ad to close that pop-up and it should stay away unless local storage gets cleared.

    I have an old apple ID I want to get rid off but keeps popping up

    If you used the Apple ID to buy content, you will need to maintain the ID to update or redownload the content. Apple does not transfer content from one ID to another, nor does Apple merge Apple IDs.

  • I Downloaded the Little Snitch Trial, and I Want To Get Rid Of It. How?

    so I have the Little Snitch trial. (an app that shows your network usage and stuff) There is no way I can quite it or stop it or delete it or anything
    ZERO search results come up when i search little snitch in finder
    it is not in the preferences of my mac.
    I just want to get rid of it! it sits in my menu bar, and when i click it it displays the following..
    Little Snitch Network Filter Off
    Start New Filter
    thats it...

    The application has the uninstaller built into it, so if that item has
    been dragged into Trash without running the uninstaller to get
    the other parts removed correctly, you would have to download
    the app again to get that uninstaller...

    {This item gets installed as a system preference modifier so the
    uninstaller is required to remove the parts you can't see. Since
    Little Snitch has/had earlier versions, some of the documentation
    may vary online from that which accompanied a later version.
    A simple search of their product site or the application's Help in
    the Finder menu should provide some insights on this.}
