Win 7. Downloade and later uninstalled Winamp. Can't get rid of Winamp Toolbar.

Fairly new basic desktop with Win7. I downloaded Winamp to compare - didn't like it and uninstalled it. Winamp installed a toolbar (I HATE AOL) that usually pops up when I start Firefox. Can't get rid of it.

Hello
I have a Macbook Pro Os X Yosemite version 10.10.1 When I go to Mail and want to delete emails from my inbox, I do have this message on my screen
“556227.emlx” couldn’t be copied to “Messages” because an item with the same name already exists.
Is this a virus and if yes how can I get rid of it?
Thanks for your help

Back up all data. Rebuild the mailbox. Try again to delete the message.

I can't get rid of somoto toolbar search and default homepage. Somoto doesnt appear in the list of searching and also not as installed software in my computer.

I can't get rid of Somoto, it doesnt appear in my search engine list and also not in my list of installed add ons or software, but its there, it is also my default homepage if i open a new tab. any idea?
thanks

Please do the following. 
#In the location bar where you normally type in a web address, type '''about:config''' and hit Enter. 
#If you see a window which says "This might void your warranty!", click the button which says "I'll be careful, I promise" so you can continue with the next step. 
#In the filter at the top, type: '''keyword.URL''' 
#Double click it and remove whatever's in there and replace it with http://www.google.com/search?q= and then click OK. 
#Close the tab
The URL to add in "keyword.URL" becomes a link in this post, so right click it and choose "Copy Link Location" to copy it to the Windows clipboard. Then hit CTRL+V to paste it. Saves you having to type the whole thing.
'''To reset your home page, do the following'''. 
* Go to the site you want to set as your homepage. 
* Click the Firefox button, go to '''Options '''| '''Options '''| '''General'''. 
* Make sure it says "''Show My Homepage''" in the first dropdown menu. 
* Click the button called "'''Use Current Pages'''" to set the homepage to the one you have on the screen. 
If this suggestion resolves the problem for you, please click the '''Solved it''' button ''next to this post'' after you log in into the forum. This will help others searching for a solution to the same problem.
Thanks.

TS1702 How can I get a refund for an app that I accidentally purchased. It's called "Flash Drive Pro". I was feeling sleepy while trying to find apps to download and try out. Can I get a refund?

I accidentally downloaded a paid app, while laying down on my sofa and while fighting to stay awake. But I fell asleep and woke up just in time to see me press "Yes" on the "Are you sure" question (at least the way I remember it).
Are all sales final, or can I get a refund?

I bot a book on my iPad2 it started downloading and then stopped. Can't get it started to download or to cancel. What should I do?

Please help me to get an eBook ok that I downloaded to continue to download after it stopped midway. Thanks

Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping upward on the app window (not the smaller icon) off the screen.
Then reset: hold down the home button along with the power button until you see the Apple, then let go.

My week old MacBook w/ retina has half of its storage taken up by the "other" category. I don't have any downloads or backups. How can I get rid of it?

I now no longer have any storage and it is only 1 week old!!

For information about the Other category in the Storage display, see this support article. If the Storage display seems to be inaccurate, try rebuilding the Spotlight index.
Empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. If you use iPhoto, empty its internal Trash first:
iPhoto ▹ Empty Trash
Do the same in other applications, such as Aperture, that have an internal Trash feature. Then restart the computer. That will temporarily free up some space.
According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of the data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
When Time Machine backs up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of recently deleted files. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown as Backups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself. If you followed bad advice to disable local snapshots by running a shell command, you may have ended up with a lot of data in the Other category. Ask for instructions in that case.
See this support article for some simple ways to free up storage space.
You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) or GrandPerspective (GP) to explore the volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one. Note that ODS only works with OS X 10.8 or later. If you're running an older OS version, use GP.
Deleting files inside an iPhoto or Aperture library will corrupt the library. Any changes to a photo library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
ODS or GP can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
Back up all data now.
If you have more than one user account, make sure you're logged in as an administrator. The administrator account is the one that was created automatically when you first set up the computer.
Install the app you downloaded in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
Triple-click anywhere in the corresponding line of text below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper sudo /Applications/GrandPerspective.app/Contents/MacOS/GrandPerspective
Launch the built-in Terminal 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 Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator. Ignore any other messages that appear in the Terminal window.
The application window will open, eventually showing all files in all folders, sorted by size. It may take a few minutes for the app to finish scanning.
I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
When you're done with the app, quit it and also quit Terminal.

I never installed the IOS8 in my iphone 5 but the app is still there as it was downloaded from Apple. How can I get rid of it?

Deleting uninstalled IOS8 app

Again, it depends on what you have been using. If you did not request the IMAP account from Comcast/Xfinity yet, then you still have the POP account. However, the phone may recognize Comcast as an IMAP account. You can fool the device to allow you to set it up as POP. You are correct that the POP mail servers are mail.comcast.net for incoming mail, and it is smtp.comcast.net. I don't use a Mac computer, so I'm not familiar with those settings. If it is necessary to delete and reconfigure your account on the iPhone and you have not registered for the IMAP Comcast account, and you and your husband are using the same account, then after deleting the account, when you begin to enter it again, misspell your email address or your password so the verification will fail. Then you get the option to choose between IMAP or POP. You can then choose POP and enter your correct settings. Make sure you enter the username and password even where it says optional, and you will need to use SSL as well.

Can't get rid of NCH toolbar - went to add-ons, but nothing to uninstall NCH bar

NCH toolbar installed covertly with some NCH software. I subsequently deleted software, but toolbar remained and is not visible in my install/uninstall. Re-installed FireFox, but NCH toolbar remained. I want it GONE! Followed FireFox troubleshooting instructions about going into add-ons in toolbar, but no sign of any place to uninstall NCH toolbar. Over 300 people have had this problem, according to your records.

'browse to save' goes by a few names apparently-
mine called itself Vaudix (uninstalled it and problem is gone)
other names include Yontoo apparently
hope that helps- my first and only ? post!

In Modified Preferences I have a URL that keeps coming up as a search engine. I have deinstalled it and removed it from the Tabs and History. How can i get rid of this?

I accessed this site then decided it was not what I needed.
I De-installed it by going to my control panel and removing it.
I restarted my PC and it comes up as my home page. I deleted it from my History and recently visited sites. restarted my PC and it still comes up as the primary search engine as the opening page.

I was trying to set up my home page using my web settings. That did not work.
Set it up using foxfire. Works great.
Thanks.

Why are my pending apps in the update screen saying open and not install. Can't get rid of the badges because of this.

In the App Store on my iPad and iPhone the updates screen has gone squiffy.
When I have updates pending they say open on the button and not install. When I click it, it opens the app instead of installing the update and the badges for the updates will not go away.

I got a warning that I was going to lose all my content including content and I am assuming the paid for Apps that I have.
Yes. When you do a restore, it will erase everything that is currently on your iphone and put everything you had from your last backup back onto your iphone. BTW, you could always redownload your paid apps for free.
Was trying to figure out if there is a way to delete individual apps from the iPhone.?
To delete individual apps, hold onto the icon until it wiggle. You should see an "x" on the top. Just hit the "x", You cannot, however, delete apps that Apple put on the iphone. Those apps will not have an "x".

How can i get rid of toolbar.exe

Tried to download street map looked good but got firefox turned into toolbar. have tried everything to rid but no joy. M

Hi Matt, I'm not really clear on what happened to your Firefox. You have an unwanted toolbar in Firefox?
Usually a new toolbar is created and maintained by an extension (a kind of add-on). Please visit the Add-ons page and review the extensions. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if you do not recognize an extension click Disable, and if you want it gone, click Remove. If in doubt, disable.
''If the Remove button is missing, then usually the extension was added by an installer that runs outside Firefox. More on that below.''
Usually a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
For system-installed extensions, try the Windows Control Panel, Uninstall a Program. Click the "Installed On" column heading to sort by installation date so you can see what was recently added. You may find some unexpected tag-alongs that can be removed without losing the programs you actually want.
Can you get rid of the toolbar?
If I misunderstood your problem, please describe it in more detail.

Can't get rid of mactune pro software or notifications

I was mistaken in downloading mactune pro.
I can't get rid of the notifications it keeps giving me , despite having trashed the software and deleted the download, including the desktop alias I created.
I have searched my iMac and there appears to be no trace of it, but it still send me notifications, any ideas ?

Your profile 10.7.3. You might consider changing it.
Go to the web site where you downloaded it and search for un-install instructions.
