Initial screen fills with applications of cookie/can't get rid of them
On my other computer, I open Firefox and get immediately a bunch of pop-up windows. These pop - ups appear to be requests for cookie of my sites to speed dial, and no matter what I click ('allow' or 'deny') they keep coming back and then freeze and I can't use the browser so I have to shut down the computer. Help, please.
You may have ad / bad-ware. More information can be found in the article troubleshooting Firefox problems caused by malware .
Run most or all of the listed malware scanners. Each works differently. If a single
program forget something, someone else can pick it up.
Download these to a USB key. Then plug it into the computer of bad.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the < shift >
(Mac = Options) key and then from Firefox. Is always the problem?

I have a lot of old e-mail files I try to delete, but they remain in the file from the Recycle Bin of 2009. How can I get rid of them?
If you have an IMAP account, go to Mail/preferences/accounts/box mailbox behaviors and make sure that the store deleted messages on the server is not checked. If this is the case, uncheck the box and see if you can remove the trash.
If that is not working, go to Mail/trash, select an e-mail message and then control - click/Delete. Does it work?

I started having these pop ups at the bottom of my screen. When the mouse passes over them, it is said, they are of betterbrowser.net/review #ata. I tried to reinstall firefox and run security scans and nothing gets rid of them. Also, when I click on the page I'm it opens a new window with an advertisement.
Hello jmartin6240, you can have present malicious addons. Please, try the following steps:
- Reset firefox (this will keep your bookmarks and passwords)
- then go to firefox > addons > extensions and where there are still extensions listed there, disable them.
- Finally, run a full scan of your system with security tools like the free version of malwarebytes and adwcleaner to ensure that adware is not present in other parts of your system as well.

perfect strangers (people standing or sitting in the background of an image that I took) are appearing in my list of people and there is no obvious way to get rid of them.
The only thing you can do about them is hide people or ignore them, if they appear in the section "Add people" from the album of peoples.
If you hide a person detected, no photo with this person will be added to a memory.
See this help page: http://help.apple.com/iphone/10/#/iph9c7ee918c
Hide and show people. Tap Albums, people, press Select, tap on the people you want to hide, and then select hide. To redisplay the people, press on show hidden people, press Select, people, then press display. Photos that contain hidden people appear not in Moments, Collections, the years and memories but are visible in albums.
Show hidden people. Press Albums, people, drag upward, on view hidden people. To see all the pictures with hidden people, tap Albums, tap Hidden.

When I save a document in pdf format, Adobe pdf displays the numbers of pages down which I didn't have in my original document footers. This happens when recording the word or Pages of Mac. Is it possible to get rid of them?
It depends on. With the player, you can not. Adobe Reader is simply to show you the pdf as it was created.
It seems that you use Mac? If so, you can use the pdf generator Mac so should ask in the Mac forums.

My files media-Cache-clogged my ssd drive. How can I get rid of them?
Hi, I have a few problems with my first Pro CS5 (with all the new free updates installed) on Windows 7 64 bit (up to date also). (I'm German btw. If that makes it easier to help you)
I just added a large number of videomaterial (SLR digital canon h264 fullhd) in my new project (dslr 1920 25 p) in first Pro CS5 and suddenly you have a lot of errors at the bottom right. The hard drive (my bootdisc) ran out of memory and I had only 6 MB left. I didn't know that I had the storageplace for the media cache files.
I immediately changed the two directories for these files after import has been over at my other big hard disks P: and clicked on something like "move the existing files. Unfortunately, this did not have the files to move and I've always had between 600 KB and 30 MB of space on my bootdrive.
Now, I deleted some other files since I can't access the folder to delete or move the files in cache-media-by myself. And I am logged on as an administrator. I'm afraid that my PC does not start with to little space on my ssd bootdrive left and am afraid to start again the CS5 first, since I don't have a lot of other things to delete if sth. won't again.
Does anyone have an idea how to solve this problem? How can I get rid of 50 GB of cache-files-media on C:? Please let me know if you do!
Greetings,
OLE
Since I've had 500 MB left I risked to restart the computer and files were deleted just by restarting I guess. Now, I'm still 18 GB free. Thanks a lot for your help! I deleted a file I accidentally created this way and now a gb. :-)
