This is how my pom.xml file looks in IDEA 12.
I hate how the app highlights the opening and closing < > signs.
How can I disable it?!
IDEA 12 XML Highlight
Go to Settings (Preferences) | Editor | Colors&Fonts | XML. On the right side choose Tag and select Background checkbox.
If you want to get rid of the grey background for XML, HTML and related formats, go to Settings (Preferences) | Editor | Colors&Fonts | Language Defaults and uncheck Background for Markup Tag.
I think the default setting was intended to highlight the difference between tags and content, but indeed, it's not very pleasant looking.

I'm looking to get rid off these helper texts. I do not know what they are called so I don't know what setting I need to remove. I'm sure it's just some check box that needs to be unchecked.
What are these called so that I can turn them on and off?

I need to know how to change settings, so that i will be able to write as well as see the >= operator as it is. Because if I'll see this operator every day, i might not remember in future.
Preferences / Settings | Editor | Font or Preferences / Settings | Editor | Color Scheme | Color Scheme Font and disable Enable ligatures option.
When I hover the mouse on a HTML tag in the tiny bar under the file tab, the background of the highlighted element is very bright, and the text becomes unreadable.
I couldn't find a way to customize this in the settings, can somebody help?
Here's what I mean:
It uses your caret row color (it just automatically makes it lighter so it's more visible) and not some separate style which you can disable/modify.
ATM there is no option to disable such behaviour. I mean -- IDEA-139930 ticket is fixed, but not available in 141.xx branch that PhpStorm is currently built on.
If it annoys you a lot then right now I may only suggest to disable that breadcrumbs bar altogether until PhpStorm will move to 142.xx or newer branch. For that: Settings (Preferences on Mac) | Editor | General | Appearance | Show HTML breadcrumbs (you will have to close and reopen that file to see the changes).
You should post more info about specification: exact version of PhpStorm etc.

Maybe do I do something wrong, but I can't open Idea's Quick list. I tried do that on Intellij 12 on Windows and 13, 14 on Linux by assigning shortcut, search action, search everywhere with no luck...
No action when I'm trying open it
First you need to create Quick List in File | Settings | Appearance and Behavior | Quick Lists and then it would appear in File | Settings | Appearance and Behavior | Keymap where you can define a shortcut for it.
