Recurring icon on the desktop!
OS X El Capitan - 10.11.5 Version
iMac late 2009
Have tried to uninstall Java, but find myself with 2 problems... Well well, nitpicking rather than problems. (I took everything that says Java Library/LaunchAgents but in system/library/LaunchAgents two Java files that I can't remove... There is - that true or are they a problem?
1. If I go to system preferences... Row from the bottom, I see the icon of Java which has changed (and has a wheel of gear image instead). If I click it it says 'Java' cannot be opened because it is not available. How can I get rid of this icon in the preferences panel.
2. (it's driving me crazy). I have a white dmg icon called 'Update Java 8 66' on my desktop which reappears constantly. No matter how many times I have move to the trash and empty the trash... No matter what I tried to do, whenever I restart it reappears. How can I break this link where this constantly re - icon.
Thank you
Hi there Callimac,
I read your post and see the steps you tried to remove Java from your iMac. I use the term "nitpicking" myself to the issues that bother me just. Because I don't like being "disturbed" either, I'll be happy to provide the steps that you should remove Java altogether of your iMac on OSX 10.11.5!
Java, itself, has provided the best steps to remove their program.

I can't find the FF in 10 Windows anywhere... I downloaded, refreshed, etc... but no visible icon on the desktop, the icon taskbar, dosen't show at "all apps".
See if there is a Mozilla Firefox directory in C:\Program Files (x 86). If so and there are files in this directory, you should be able to reinstall Firefox without losing your preferences.
Also, you should be able to run it by typing "Firefox" at a DOS command prompt. If it is running, then just create icons yourself.

I can rearrange the icons on the desktop?
I can rearrange the icons on the desktop of my iPad?
Yes, just press and hold an application until the icons wiggle. Then you can drag and drop icons around to put in the order you choose or move to different pages. You can't however move icons to create gaps between them. They will always be positioned in the upper left corner for the first available space. Once you've converted them, you can click the home button to turn off him jiggle.

Unexpected icon on the desktop called Null0 and have no internet connectivity
my fathers partners last week computer has been infected by adware, which was easy enough to remove safely. But last night he told me his return (he thinks ebay.co.uk is at fault?). In any case, when I had a quick glance, there is an icon on the desktop, titled null0. # .rar, which he had never seen before. Brilliant orange white white outline of the letter X. The computer does not connect to the internet, unable to open the system restore and the pop ups are quite common. Anyone can shed light on what I can do? Also, there is little to no information around on the net to give me an overview of what this thing is and what is going on this machine.
