How can I get rid of the media support is outdated question on the home page that appears each time you open Firefox?

Everytime I open Firefox there is a window that says "media player is out of date" and won't let me not go further until I close the window, and then reopen Firefox. When I try to update, it says that it does not work for Mac.

Please do NOT install this suggested MediaPlayer. This message is caused by an extension that I recommend withdrawal, following these steps:

Please try to disable all non-essential or unrecognized extensions on page modules. Either:

  • CMD + SHIFT + a
  • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

In the left column, click Extensions. Then deal a critical look at the list on the right and, when in doubt, turn off (or delete). Especially if you find something called MediaPlayer. Keep in mind that all extensions are optional and none is included with Firefox when you get it first.

Often, a link will appear above at least an extension disabled to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links in the last step.

That get rid of messages?

  • How can I get rid of the black bar that appears in the middle of the screen every time I have set the basic like the volume control features, or brightness levels?

    Hi, can someone help me with a really annoying (and I'm sure a simple to fix) problem?  I don't know if it's related to Windows 7 or if it's just my laptop plays up.  I recently upgraded to Windows 7 from Visa and whenever I have increase/decrease noise, brightness, etc (no matter if I do this using the key on the keyboard or via the control panel), a black bar appears in the middle of the display, indicating the levels that I'm reaching with the adjustments.  It's useful... except it does not disappear after that I'm done.  The bar stays there for all the time that I am connected and text blocks, images on the screen that I can't minimize or even move it out of the road.

    Hi Mkum

    The bar you describe look like this image?

    If so, this is part of the HP software that is installed on the computer.

  • How can I get rid of the little boxes that appear with the controls unwanted?

    Using OS X on my 21.5-inch iMac 10.11.6 find small boxes containing unwanted orders often open on my computer screen when I place my cursor in a position to order an action such as 'delete' (for example) which is already there and requires nothing more than a pressure on my mouse to work. These boxes often vary in content, and all are difficult and time consuming to remove. Is there a way to prevent their unwanted interference? They began to appear after that I upgraded my operating system of Mountain Lion 2 months ago; no such troubling interference never occurred before this conversion.

    Please post a screenshot of what you're trying to describe.

  • How can I get rid of the flowery banner that Firefox automaticall put at the top of my browser?

    When I downloaded the latest version of Firefox (8.O) a flowered headband came with it. This banner obscures the text which makes it difficult to work with links. It seems not only on the home page of Firefox, but on what I chose to look on the web. I create websites and this banner makes it very difficult to see things, I work on and is extremely irritating. How can I down it the page? I don't want anything and do not appreciate the assumption of Firefox that they can force right on me. I would appreciate help on this. I went through your menus to help and tried to return to a single page but nothing seems to work. Thanks for your time, and we hope, your help.

    Sounds that you have installed a Persona.

    You can uninstall your current Persona and go back to the default theme (Tools > Modules > appearance/themes).

  • How can I get rid of the new toolbar that have been added by versions 20 and 21?

    I tried both versions 20 and 21, and both have the bugs below, so I ended up having to reinstall version 19:
    Versions 1.) 20 and 21 Add a new toolbar that has nothing more than a button "Firefox" on it--and no way to get rid of this toolbar is provided. It wastes far too much space on my laptop screen - button should be placed on an other toolbars, or simply part of the defined icon that users can use to customize their menus or other toolbars bar.
    2.) this new toolbar is not customizable. Therefore, I don't have the ability to recover space on the screen by the way all of my sidebar on the new toolbar, and then hide the MenuBar.
    (3.) the back, forward and stop. reload buttons in my menubar no longer work. Return to the navigation toolbar and display this toolbar do not solve the problem. Or I can right-click on a web page and select these functions in the context menu: they are disabled for life again.
    4.) I can no longer right-click on the menu bar or a toolbar and get a context menu you I can choose an option "Customize" - I can't ALL a context menu. In order to customize things for versions 20 or 21, I must first reinstall the version 19, make customizations, and then reinstall the version 20 or 21.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).

    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe or make changes.

  • How can I get rid of the error code 0 x 80010108 when you insert the SD card

    My SD card is good and I can access images using my computer to start up. I can also see my saved photo gallary pictures. What I can't do, is when I insert the SD card and select images I get the above error message. Help.

    I would say that you have two choices,

    Photo Gallery of windows open before inserting the sd card,

    Then click on import, then insert the sd card.

    Or you can click on the Start button and click computer.

    Insert the sd card,

    He appears as a removable disk that you can right click and click Open,

    Then manually, copy and paste the files in a folder or an existing one,

    Do not use auto play close the dialog box or use the Windows Explorer instead.

    Oops, that's three choice :)
