Yahoo has suddenly appeared on my MENU bar and I can't get it off.

I deleted the program, removed it from addons. Nothing works.

If you are referring to the menu bar in Firefox. You need to select the "Tools" menu and go to "Add-ons". In the Add-ons dialog box select "Extensions at the top, then scroll down to find the "Yahoo" entry. Press the "Uninstall" button.
You will need to restart Firefox to complete.

  • How did a Yahoo! item suddenly appear in my menu bar, and how can I get rid of it?

    I connected to the internet as usual to find that the menu item Yahoo! appears as described above.
    As I has lost all my previous tabs (from doing some offline housekeeping), I had to manually establish access to my favoutire tabs.
    When tryign to establish contact with Gmail, Yahoo kept intercepting my requests and presenting me with a doce 404.
    Even when I tried other sites, the same problem occurred.
    I eventually managed to overcome this issue, but I am still concerned that Yahoo! appears to be taking over as my search engine.
    Any help would be most appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Mike.

    HI there
    Thank you for trying to help me. You're going to think I'm really thick, but I can't seem to do a screen shot.
    I pressed the command and the 3 button, plus what I believe is the shift key, Hat is the one on the left hand side, with an arrow on it, which you use for a capital letter yeah?
    But nothing happens.
    Also I can't see what you are reffering to when you say click onto the camera icon? I can't see any such icon.
    Sorry to be so useless.
    I have just noticed that it is obviously connected with the sound. It has a row of boxes undeneath the logo, and as you increase the volume, the boxes fill up from left to right, and the logo flutters at the same time.
    have alogitec amplifier and speaker system connected to it, and have just noticed that the sun logo looks very similar to the Logitec symble/Logo.
    Is that of any help please?

  • CC icon is not appearing in my menu bar and I can't open it from the finder. apps work from within osx environment , just not CC app

    any thoughts regarding this CC issue. do you think someone else is logged in using my password info?

    You might try uninstalling the desktop app using the Cleaner Tool: helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html
    Then reinstall it from creative.adobe.com/products/download/creative-cloud

  • Yahoo has hijacked my web browser from Firefox and I can't get rid of it.

    I have tried every way to change it, and my settings say Firefox is still my default browser yet it opens with AT&T/Yahoo as my search engine. I hate AT&T and have eliminated them completely from my life and don't want them as my search engine. I am currently running a virus extractor as I read that could be the problem, but if that doesn't work, any other suggestions?

    My browser was hijacked to switct to Bing. If you have a similar problem, try this:
    1- download & run "Hijack This"
    2- check to see if there are any entries that mention "sweet" or "Sweetbacks"
    3- delete any entry that says "sweet" of "sweetback"
    4- open browser’s "Settings"
    5- open “set pages”
    6- delete all entries with "sweet" or "sweetbacks" backs in them
    7- check all the browsers listed under "set pages" for malware or just a
    bad reputation
    8- reboot immediately
    If sweetbacks was the problem, your browser should be back to normal
    and it should work the same for all browsers

  • When a document gets hidden behind the menu bar and you can't move it

    Whe, say, a Word document opens up so it's own header is behind the Apple Finder menu bar at the very top of the screen, you can't click on the header to move it anywhere on the screen. Like it's stuck there.
    How Can I access documents like that?
    I think this happens to me because I have a second screen (Apple 20") and when I drag documents from this screen to the PowerBook screen, this has a tendency to happen.

    I tried to solve this problem using the plist method described at the following thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1408414&#1408414
    This method did not work.
    The sucessful procedure is to access the small gear (or wheel?) icon in the bottome left corner of the character palette and select "Minimize Palette on Application Switch". Then change focus to another program that you are running, or just open a new application. This will cause the palette to shrink into a window so small that only one character is displayed. In my case the window also moved to a new position near the bottom of the screen. In this new position the palette is accessible and can be moved freely. I have even deselected the minimize feature and closed/reopened the palette successfully.
    I hope this post can save someone else out there a lot of time if this happens.

  • A video has popped up on my start page and I can't turn it off or stop it from replaying.

    My start page is the basic firefox page. Just today (11/18/14), a video popped up about the internet. I watched it, but it keeps replaying and I can't find a way to turn it off. FYI, I don't tweet or use facebook, so if I'm supposed to vote or go there, I can't.

    The easiest way to get around that is to just set your own homepage.
    See - [[How to set the home page]]
    Many of us have disabled the changes to the top part ''[brandLogo portion]'' of the Firefox Start Page, so that we don't see that "stuff".
    If you feel venturesome, here's how to "fix it".
    Type '''about:config''' in the Location Bar and hit Enter. Accept the "dragons" message to see the advanced prefs screen. ''Use the Search field at the top to enter the pref mentioned below.''
    You can set the <b>browser.aboutHomeSnippets.updateUrl</b> pref to an empty string to stop your Firefox from retrieving "snippets" and brandLogo changes. Right-click that pref and select '''''Modify''''' then clear the Value for that pref in the box that appears, then click OK. ''That will also disable the "snippets" that appear below the Search container on the default homepage.''
    Then you need to open your Profile folder, via Help > Troubeshooting Information > Profile folder >> Show Folder ''button''. Then close Firefox.
    With your Profile folder open and Firefox closed ("3-bar" Firefox menu button > Exit/Quit), wait minute or so, then delete the <b>storage\moz-safe-about+home</b> folder in the Firefox profile folder to remove the brandLogo and snippets stored in IndexedDB to make Firefox use the default brandLogo and a default snippet set.
    If you should later changes your mind about those modifications, you can reset the browser.aboutHomeSnippets.updateUrl pref via the right-click context menu and use Reset to get the default value back and start using the '''''storage\moz-safe-about+home''' folder again.

  • Help!  I'm stuck on the Task Bar and I can't get up!

    I recently upgraded to Premiere Elements 8, and now I can start the program but as soon as I open a project the window minimizes to the task bar.  I can not restore the window to show-up on the screen.  The Organizer works OK, and the Adobe startup window show-up OK.  Even the Premiere Elements window will show-up while it's loading a project, but as soon as the project is loaded... it hides down on the task bar.  It was working fine just after I installed it.  It's been a couple of weeks since I ran it last.  I have installed the 8.0.1 update.  What a tease!
    I've attached a couple of images of the program on the task bar just in case this helps.  My system is Window 7 Ultimate.  I have two 24" displays (both working fine), lots of memory and disk space, and it's a Dell XPS 9000 box.
    Please let me know how to coax my beloved Premiere Elements out of hiding!

    Hi Steve -- Thanks for your quick response.  I do have the 64-bit version installed on the C drive as shown in the screen  snippet below. The reference to the D drive in my earlier post was to the Premiere project file, which I dont keep on my system drive.  You've also suggested that I update my video driver, which I confirmed was up to date (as per snapshot below).
    You questions got me poking however, and I think I've found a way to circumvent the problem (which looks ilke a bug to me).  Apparently, the Welcome window always launches the Premiere editor in maximized mode.  When you subsequently open (a new or existing) project, the window resizes to the size that it was when you last used it.  When I was experiencing the problem, this size was "minimized on the task bar forever".
    To get around this, I used the settings menu on the top right of the Welcome window to set the option "Always Launch Premiere Elements Editor behind the Welcome Screen".  This show the editor window maximized, but it allows me to resize the editor window in the normal way, before I open a project.  Now when I subsequently opened a project file, the editor window did not dive into the Task Bar!
    Moreover, on subsequent launches the Welcome window still shows the editor window maximized, but the auto resize after opening a project now uses the size that I manually set in my manual sizing procedure in the above paragraph.  For me it's fixed!!
    Perhaps the context that provokes the bug is that I never set a non-maximized size for the editor, and the auto resize gets confused about the desired size of the editor window?
    -- Thanks, Ole Pa

  • In every update the old cs6-updater appears at the menu-bar and blocks the cc-app (10.8 & 10.9)

    i've to quit the cc-app and choose "update" from cs6-updater.
    after that the cc-app starts and shows the upate correctly.
    i've two cs6-apps installed next to the creative cloud.
    i have seen this problem on osx 10.8 and 10.9.

    Same here. Sometimes it appears, and sometimes it doesn't. And I don't understand why because it should have been deleted with the creative cloud app, as Adobe says.

  • All my photos are in one album but it's hidden behind the menu bar and I can't reach it

    Every time I pull down the page goes back up and touching the album does nothing. This is new behavior. Syncing and restarting the phone has no effect.
    The OS is actually 4.3.3 but that choice wasn't available when I entered my iPhone.

    This seems to be a common problem.  The only fix I know of is to double-tap the home button to bring up the recently used apps bar.  Find the Photos app.  Tap and hold until a red x appears.  Tap the X to close the app.  Then tap the home button again.  The Photos app should work normally when you next use it.

  • TS1702 I have a problem with an app called GSN casino. It has appeared on my app screen and I can't get rid of it.

    There is no way that I can see to get this supid thing off my app screen. I can't update apps I can't add new apps I can't do anything and I **** sure don't want this app.

    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

  • Tab Groups has ruined my browser and I can't get it off. I wat to completely lose it.

    Ever since I put Firefox 4 on it opens up to the last window I ws at - not my home page - not any reason except the obnoxious Tab Group you added. I drag it to the customize box off the tool bar - no good. Whatever page I was last in it comes up next time I open Firefox as New Tab. I JUST WAT TAB GROUPS UN INSTALLED FROM MY COMPUTER !!! I don't want to customize it , or learn how neat it is, I WANT IT GONE. It does nothing but creat new problems. If need be I'll go back to the Firefox 3.6. Tab Groups should be a option - not something you have to live with. GET ME OUT - PLEASE

    App (pinned) tabs and Tab Groups (Panorama) are stored as part of the session data [1] in the file sessionstore.js [2] in the Firefox profile folder [3].
    Delete the files sessionstore.js [2] and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder to get rid of the Tab Groups.
