How to remove yahoo from firefox?

When I search something in the search at the top of the browser, it takes me to a list of items in google. When I click on the Web site in the search list, it takes me to a site that I want to see and then a second later it takes me to yahoo.
That seems to only happen when I use the search bars in the browser.

Any ideas of how I can stop this?

It is difficult to follow this URL for Yahoo, but a potential culprit is a plugin or extension (for example, a 'Community Toolbar' extension).

You can check your plugins and extensions on page modules. Either:

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

In the left column, click on Plugins. For those who don't are not essential for the next 48 hours (any other most Shockwave Flash), set them never 'enable '.

In the left column, click Extensions. For those who are not essential for the next 48 hours, click "disable". In the case of a double, "Disable."

You may need to quit and launch Firefox back before these changes take full effect. Any improvement?

  • How can I remove yahoo from firefox?

    I downloaded a screensaver and after installing it I'm done with a Yahoo Search page whenever I start Firefox.
    It is not in my plugins or addons so I can't remove it there.
    It is not in my list of installed programs so I can't uninstall it.

    I reinstalled Firefox and it's still there.
    How can I remove it?

    Hi gunnermac,

    You should take a look at the Knowledge Base How to set the home pagearticle. Your home page might have been changed by a particular site. Sites like MSN, Yahoo, etc. have been ask to become your homepage.

    There are the steps in this article to reset your preferences on the default home page. I would try everything first to clear all strangeness. If it works, you can try to set your homepage again to your personal preferences.

    If Yahoo has been set as the default search in the search bar, you should take a look in the Knowledge Base using the search in Firefox bararticle.

    If the address bar search has been changed, so you can take a look at Search the Web from the address bar.

    If this does not work, you should look the article How to fix preferences that will not save.

    Finally, your problem may be because you have been hit by some malware.

    Hope this helps!

    Hello KConstant,

    I understand that you're looking to remove photos from your iPhone, after you import the to your Mac. It depends largely on how the images are imported into your Mac.

    If you use iCloud photo library, remove photos from your iPhone, after they have synched to the Photos on your Mac afterwards would remove these photos on your Mac as well, like iCloud photo library is designed to synchronize your iPhone with iCloud and Mac.

    However, if you are importing photos via the USB port of the Photos app, you should be prompted to delete pictures from your device once the import is complete:

    Once the import is complete, a message asks if you want to delete or keep the photos on your device. Click on remove items to remove photos or click on keep items to keep them on the device.

    You can also (it not allowed you iCloud photo library on your iPhone), you can use the image capture on your Mac app to delete images from your iPhone. This can also be useful to remove the last images that have already been imported into the Photos on your Mac. Once you have selected the images you want in the Image Capture, you can click on the prohibitive red symbol () to delete the selected items.

    How to remove programs from the system tray without removing them from the startup on Windows XP folder?

    Hello

    The first step is to identify the program that represents the icon and decide whether it should be in the system tray (most are not necessary). Hold the cursor of the mouse on the icon to see the name of the program that launches the icon.

    The best bet is to click the icon to see if this opens the box of the program options. If so, look for a selection similar to "remove from the system tray.

    Alternatively, you can hide the icons in the system tray.

    Here's how:

    1. right click on the taskbar and select "Properties".

    2. in the "Notification area" click "Hide inactive icons" if she already unchecked and then click on the button "Customize".

    3. click on the ' column next to each of your current behavior and choose one of the three behaviors for each program icon that appears in the system tray: "Hide when it is idle," "Always hide", or "always show".»

    If you hide an icon, but then see it again the next time that you log on to Windows, you may need to uninstall the program to permanently remove the icon. Uninstall the program permanently removes the program from your computer. For more information, see Uninstall or change a program.
