Who is inbox? They've taken over my Firefox Application. How do I get rid of this, or is it you rebranding?

When I click on my Firefox icon on my front page, I get a whole other "internet browser" called Inbox, which seems to have displaced you all together. It has not affected my internet explorer browser. I suspect that I have been hacked, despite a two-month-ago installation of AVG antivirus softwarre, which was recommended by a friend, but is cumbersome and annoying. Any ideas? Are you rebranding to Inbox? I would not think so. I like my Firefox just the way it is. thanks for your help in advance , Laura Beauchamp

See if this helps you: <br />

I installed a music downloader Imesh which has taken over my Firefox browser, how can I get rid of it?

I installed a program called iMesh to play music on my computer via the internet. When I used Firefox now the search windows have been taken over by 'iMesh Web Search' and they don't bring up the same lists when I searched Firefox previously; e.g. it is very difficult to get 'Hotmail' to come up. I have uninstalled the iMesh program from the computer (not just deleted the icon), but my Firefox remains invaded. Please can you help?

Use the instructions at [[How to set the home page]].
If the problem persists after that, you probably have an add-on that is adjusting it. See [[Uninstalling add-ons]]

BearShare has taken over browser page. How do I get rid of it?

I stupidly download BearShare. I have uninstalled it in all the usual places but it has taken over the firefox opening page of Google with a BearShare one. The problem is not on the laptop I am using but on a new Acer laptop with Windows 7. Help!

The safest and most thorough way of cleaning it out of your system is to download Revo Uninstaller, run it in advanced mode and press delete all when prompted. Do NOT go messing about in your registry unless you are a real expert. The other way is to go into system restore and tell your computer to restore to a date & time before you downloaded Bearshare. Just remember that any software you installed since that date will be deleted so back it up first. Good luck. Bearshare is a pain in the Jacksy!

VIDX Has taken over my browser. How do I get rid of it?

Hello - I have been trying to get rid of this VidX virus that has seem to take over my browsers... Pop ups all the time - Re-directing me to SPAM pages.. its a mess!!
The way I think I got it, was by downloading some "update" I thought I needed to get my videos to play on this blog I watch reality shows on..
anyways - I found out it was a phony, becuase pop ups started to happen the minute I finalized that "INSTALL"
I have the "AppZapper" I tried getting rid of it in there, and it did, from the "Applications" folder - but the pop ups never stopped happening.
Attached are some of the stuff that's been happening on my browsers... and it says "Ads By VidX"

Downloading software from untrustworthy site caused adware to be installed. This can occur when downloading anything from software aggregator hosting sites such as C net dot com, Softonic dot com, Soft pedia dot com, Download dot com, Mac Update dot com, or others.
Don't do that. If you want to install software that isn't available from the Mac App Store, go directly to the source - usually the developer's own website, or the distribution source authorized by the developer.
In general, searching for software by following the first Google result is a bad idea. The top ranked results will include one or more of the untrustworthy sources above, for the simple reason that Google gives first preference to sites that host Google's advertisements - and since Google tracks your search history and knows what browser and equipment you're using, you'll be targeted for garbage Mac apps that will result in even more misery if you were to install them.
To fix your Firefox popup problems, go to Tools > Add-ons > Extensions. Remove "VidX" as well as anything else you aren't absolutely certain is required. Do the same with Plug-Ins and Services.
Don't use AppZapper to delete anything either. It's not necessary and you might delete something required. Merely deleting the VidX app from Applications by dragging it to the Trash is enough.

When I click on a link that is highlighted in green with a underline beneath it I am taken to an advertisement. How do I get rid of this? I expected to get more detail on this subject.

This has been going on for a few weeks.

I recently updated my Ipad2 to iOS7 and suddenly have 794 emails in my inbox which were previously reviewed and deleted. How can I get rid of them without doing one at a time?

You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup. If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup. You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone. However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.

SharePoint does not remove users from SharePoint permissions just because they were deleted/disabled in AD. This is to maintain referential integrity. In fact, when you delete a user from SharePoint, that user remains in the SharePoint content database,
just marked as deleted.
They do not have access to SharePoint given their account is deleted/disabled. But as far as automatically managing this, I'm not aware of a tool. On-prem there is Metalogix ControlPoint which does a great job of this, I haven't explored the O365 options.

You probably will need to force-quit Word. Go to the Apple menu, choose "Force Quit", locate and select Word in the list of applications and click the "Force Quit" button. You will of course most likely lose any changes you made to the document since you last saved it (or it was auto-saved, if you have that option turned on in Word).

You should be able to delete them from the bookshelf in the iBooks app via the Edit button at the top right of the bookshelf. If they show on the bookshelf with a cloud symbol on them then try turning Settings > iBooks > Show All Purchases 'off'. Is that what is happening ?

You can't delete the All On My Mac as it is an automatic group to display all of the contacts that are stored "On My Mac." You can delete all of the contacts that are in the ON MY MAC section by selecting All ON My Mac and then selecting all contacts. Press delete and approve the deletion. Then, select each group under ON My Mac and delete those individually.
Then, Make sure iCloud is set as the default account in the General Address Book Preferences.

There are several login keychain items I'd like to get rid of. I've deleted them but they come back after several hours. How can I get rid of them for good

There are several login keychain items I'd like to get rid of. I've deleted them but they come back after several hours. How can I get rid of them for good.

Back up all data before proceeding.
Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select
          Change Settings for Keychain "login"
In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
From the menu bar, select
          Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
If the box marked
          Keep login keychain unlocked
is not checked, check it.
Select
          Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.

I recently updated Firefox and something called Fantistic Games has taken over my homepage and I can't get rid of it.

I used to get a field of 9 options to open when I opened a new page by clicking on the + button on the right side of the Search tab. After I updated Firefox a couple of days ago, my homepage had been taken over by something called "Fantasti Games". I can't find it anywhere to uninstall "Fantisti Games". I now have Google come up as my homepage when I open Mozilla Firefox, but each tab that I open comes up with the "FantastiGames" search engine. I need to get rid of that from my computer and revert back to what I had before, which was when I opened a new tab, I got nine large icons on the screen that gave me the choice of common sites to go to (such as AOL, YouTube, Weather.com, Google, etc.). Please tell me how to uninstall "FantastiGames".

This is embarrassing. It sounds like you have a third party program that has taken over your search engine, home page, and/or the default new tab page. Fortunately, this can be remedied easily:
# At the top of the Firefox window, click on the Firefox button (Tools menu in Windows XP), and then click Add-ons. The Add-ons Manager tab will open.
# In the Add-ons Manager tab, select the Extensions panel.
# Select the toolbar you wish to remove.
# Click the remove button.
# Click "Restart now" if it pops up. Your tabs will be saved and restored after the restart.
After Firefox restarts, install the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/searchreset/ Search Reset Tool]. This will remove the rest of the traces of this program from your Firefox.
For further information, please read [[Remove a toolbar that has taken over your Firefox search or home page]].

I have smart playlists on my iphone that i never created and when i connect to itunes and go to "on my phone" they are not listed there but they are definately on my phone. How do i get rid of them?

I have smart playlists on my iphone that i never created, a couple of them are duplicated and I cant figure out how to delete them. When i connect my phone to pc using Itunes these "Ghost" playlists do not even show up when I click "on my phone". These lists are there and they do have songs and work, I just want to get rid of them and I dont know how. Any help would be appreciated.

Okay. Try checking "manually manage music and videos", and then click the flippy triangle next to your device. Then select the items you want to delete and just press Delete on your keyboard.
Uncheck when you're done.
