Accordingly, how do I remove a ring shade?

Simply loosen them and the shade will slide out. Some shades are held in place with a ring, called a socket collar, that screws over the light socket. To remove this type, carefully reach inside the shade and unscrew the ring. Once you've removed the shade, dispose of it safely in a bag or bin.

How do you remove a ceiling light fixture that has no screws?

A few ways:

1. There will be little finger nuts to loosen, usually 3, that if you turn counter clockwise will allow the lip of the fixture to drop down (into your hands! be ready to catch it!)
2. There are no visible nuts: turn the cover counterclockwise and it should 'screw' out.
3. Just pull - it may snap off.
