My default search engine is Google and I deleted Bing. Whenever I open a new tab, Bing is displayed and it takes the focus so if I am trying to type a URL in the new tab, it is entered in the damn bing search box. HOW DO I GET RID OF THAT ACCURSED BING?

You will Not be able to get rid of it entirely...
Other is usually around 1 GB...
A ' Large Other ' usually indicates Corrupt Data...
First Try a Restore from Backup...
But... if the Large Other Persists, that is an Indicator of Corrupt Data in the Backup...
Then a Restore as New is the way to go...

I set my home page to my school website, but everytime I open firefox it opens to a conduit search Bing website how can I get rid of that a nd lock in my home p

I set and want my home page to be my school website, "northbranch.k12.mn.us" I have gone to option and set it as my home page. Everytime I start up the computer and start up firefox, i get a conduit search engine with Bing. How can I get rid of this permanently and have my school website come up as the stratup window?

hello tomterrimort, if your manual changes don't 'stick' after a restart of the browser, please look out for any suspicious extensions (like 3rd-party-toolbars or things you have not installed intentionally) presently installed under '''firefox/tools > addons > extensions''' or the programs section of the windows control panel and remove those entries.
in case this doesn't solve the issue please try this: go to firefox > help > troubleshooting information > profile folder - "show folder", then a new window will open up. in this window look out for a file named '''user.js''' (it might be used to overwrite your custom settings). in case it is present , delete or rename this file and restart firefox afterwards.

When opening a new tab, Pogo with Yahoo search pops up first - how do I get rid of this

When clicking on a new link, the page changes to Pogo.com with a Yahoo search bar mid screen until the new tab starts to load, then it reverts to the originale page. Im using vista with yahoo as a home page, links open in a new tab. Tried changing home page to Google and reloading different releases of ff 4., started after latest updates of microsoft vista - help!

It took me most of a day to figure this out, but I finally did, after uninstalling the Yahoo toolbar all over the computer, including Internet Explorer but when I went back to Firefox it was still listed on my toolbars, and continued to produce the Pogo search screen whether the toolbar was enabled or not. I found the answer by accident by phrasing it slightly differently on Firefox help. I have XP, but the basics is go click on Tools, then Add-ons, then Extensions. Uninstall Yahoo toolbar and that should do it. Mine is now free of it. The point being that the download came in with something else (in my case a game I was trying out) and you need to get rid of the download on Firefox.

Yahoo installed a Yahoo tab in my Firefox toolbar that I DO NOT want there- how do I get rid of it for good?

Yahoo took over my Firefox- help!
About two weeks ago for some unknown reason Yahool basically took over my Firefox. All of a sudden it was my preferred search engine, Yahoo! TAB shows up in my toolbar (can't remove it) and in general it's been doing some goofy things. I swear I didn't give out any permission for this, but I hate it and it's driving me crazy (actually temp swithched back to Explorer). Tried uninstall and reinstall, but it's still there. Read somewhere that Yahoo hides it's files in hard to figure out places so it can't be deleted. Can anybody help me figure out how to get rid of Yahoo? (ESPECIALLY THE TOOLBAR TAB AT THE TOP) Many thanks!

This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

When firefox opens it had Incredimail as the search engine. I disengaged that, now have nothing there, but Incredimail still shows in the upper left by the tool bars. How can I get rid of this and get back a search engine that I want?

When Firefox opens here is NO toolbar! But Incredimail shows as something up there, even though I deleted it from my Firefox Home page. I do not want anything to do with Incredimail. How do I correct all of this and get a server that I want?

That file could be set as a Launch Agent or Daemon in your ~/Library or /Library, You could try to look for it or Safeboot your computer and then empty the trash. Safebooting disables Launch Agents/Daemon and Third Party Kernal extensions. Here's the article to Safeboot OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode? - Apple Support

Select  ▹ System Preferences ▹ Spotlight ▹ Privacy. The list of items excluded from Spotlight indexing is shown (it may be empty.) Click the plus (“+”) icon to add an item to the list. Select your boot volume (under DEVICES) and add it to the list. Then remove it from the list by selecting it and clicking the minus (“-“) icon.
Spotlight will rebuild the index. If you try to do a Spotlight search now from the magnifying-glass icon in the top right corner of the display, a pulsing dot will appear in the icon. When the dot disappears, the indexing is complete.

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.

How do I get rid of two tabs opening when I first open Firefox?

When I first open Firefox I get my home page in one tab but another tab opens also. That one is set for Facebook. How do I get rid of the automatically opening second tab?

Do you get both pages if you launch a new window using either:
* Ctrl+n
* "3-bar" menu button > New Window
''If yes:''
Check your home page setting to see if you have multiple home tabs. A vertical bar (|) is used between the addresses. This article shows where to check this in the Options dialog: [[Startup, home page and download settings]]. This article has more background on multiple home tabs: [[How to set the home page]].
''If no, or if the Options dialog is okay:''
Add-ons may display tabs at startup or in a new window. If you check the address of the Facebook page, is it the normal Facebook URL ([https://www.facebook.com/]) or a different address?
Do you have any Facebook-related extensions? You can review, disable, and often remove extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable.
Often 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.
Any improvement?
