CS5 Smart Guides: Can't Turn Off?

Maybe I'm missing something, but I can't seem to turn off the smart guides in CS5. The menu item is unchecked; turning them on and then back off again does nothing.
Is this a known issue? Operator error? Something else?

Wow that was quick.
In reply to:
And how do you figure turning off frame edges is going to make it LESS likely that you'd move the wrong object?
Well it wasn't in previous versions and now it is. Therefore I can gauge my performance based on previous versions.
For example at this moment I have a 2 sided A4 brochure that has to be at the printer by the morning. The job is for a surf company. The file contains a place illustrator file of a pretty complex illustration. There are photos and text boxes and on top of that I have several cut and pasted vector files from Illustrator as part of the theme that I need editable so I can change colours, gradients and transparencies. So all up there is a lot going on. I have quite a few more layers than usual, so that I can lock layers to prevent the "smart highlighting" happening. But in the design process I need a lot of elements active to be tweeked to get the file the way I want it to look.
Now I have a new mac with lots of RAM, but still when you have a complex file with lots of stuff going on, and you want to zoom in and change something quickly because the client who is sharing screen with you on skype wants to put a gradient fade behind a some text to give it some pop... which then makes a millisecond of redraw time happen and your mouse is also loaded to place an image at the same time into a frame, I have found that when you are moving your mouse across the page, while the "smart frame edges" function is occurring, the highlighted frame sometimes will dump the loaded image or eye dropped colour into an unintentional frame or element. It doesnt happen all the time but it is enough to make you want to write in a forum like this. I do this kind of work enough to know it is stifling the creative process. If I was designing a catalogue with a photo on one side and a description on the other there wouldn't be as much of a concern.
Sorry if the spelling is bad its almost 2am and I still have about an hour to go.

Smart Connect can't turn off Bluetooth

Hello,
I purchased an Xperia Z3 Compact and Smart Connect is unable to turn off Bluetooth at the end of an action. Below is the setup I have been trying to get work.
- Bluetooth turned on manually
- Turn on Bluetooth headphones.
Smart Connect:
- Start Action:
     - Connect Bluetooth headphones
     - Start Walkman App
     - Play track
     - Adjust Volumes
- End Action:
     -Disconnect Bluetooth headphones
     - Pause track
     - Turn off Bluetooth
The problem is that the Bluetooth will not turn off and I must do it manually. The Bluetooth on and off works for wired headphones, but not for Bluetooth headphones. Can this be addressed or at least send me information to get this fixed?
Thanks

I have this exact problem with my new Z2.
- End Action:
     - Adjust Volumes: set wrong volumes
     - Turn off Bluetooth: does not work
Sony, fix it with an update, please!

Can you turn off the automatic guide grids in Aperture books?

Can you turn off the automatic guide grids in Aperture books?

Yes you can do this - either the way you're already doing it by editing the published content or by changing the source code in the template itself.
I won't get into the details here cuz I have all this documented here:
http://web.mac.com/sboben/iWeb/11Mystics/
See the iWeb Templates page. In short, what you have to do is show package contents for the iWeb app, open the Resources folder, open the .lproj folder for YOUR language, likely english, open the Templates folder and then one by one, for each page-type folder you find in there, you have to show package contents for your chosen template, unzip the index.xml.gz files, find the hyperlink settings in the XML, turn off the underline setting, save the file again and rezip it. Then any NEW pages you build will not contain underlined links. It sounds worse than it is.
If you tell me which template you're using, I'll go look in the file and tell you how to turn the underline code OFF. But you should read my instructions at my site before you even try to do this - I outline some things you should know before even opening up those XML files.

How can I turn off the 2 blue lines running vertically in my image in Photoshop?

How can I turn off the 2 blue lines running vertically through my image in Photoshop? I want to save my work but do not know if these lines will persist in the saved image.

I assume the Rulers are showing. In that case, to get rid of each line use the Move tool to straddle the line and drag it whence it came. I really didn't need to add this comment but it is the first time in years I have had a chance to use the word "whence".
Is this a guide I see before me? Doeth it conspire to confuseth mine eyes with sapphire lines that afoul my worthy parchment, and draw my quill from its righteous path? Be gone foul guide from whence thou cometh. Verily, forsooth, and hey nonny nonny.

Can i turn off spacebar shortcut in Finder ?

Can i turn off the spacebar shortcut in the Finder. It is causing me difficulty while using keyboard shortcuts in CS5. If by mistake I tap the desktop to make Finder active, while still viewing an inacvtive window, the Finder automatically selects a folder on my desktop. The next time I hit the spacebar while mistakenly in the Finder, it springs the selected folder to the front. It's totally annoying. I talked to Apple Care and they have no solution.

Okay - just wanted to be sure!
You can test your preferences theory fairly easily.
Create a new user account. Log out of the current one and into the new one.
Make sure the folders/pictures spring forward when the space bar is depressed.
Go into the Finder Preferences and uncheck that box. Test to see if the folders still spring forward. You should not need to restart the computer.
If they do not, I can get you instructions for deleting/moving some preference files that might need to be trashed to fix this.

Can't turn off face tracking on Live! Ultra for Notebooks

Please help! I've installed Live! Ultra for Notebooks and it works reasonably well, except for the fact that I can't turn off the Face Tracking feature.
When I installed everything, I selected "Smart", but I hate the way that the camera keeps panning off to different parts of the room. So, I just want to turn this feature OFF.
But every time I open the Face Tracking Utility, or go to the screen via "Tools," I can click "off". But, it doesn't actually turn off; the camera still keeps panning off to the far corners of the room. And the next time I access the Face Tracking Utility again, it has defaulted back to "Smart". Any suggestions on how to disable this feature?
My system is as follows:
Dell Inspiron 700M
Intel Pentium M 2.00 GHz processor
Windows XP Home Edition, service pack 2
Happy new year & thanks in advance..

Finally figured it out. In case anyone else has the same problem of your computer ignoring changes in the Face Tracking Utility screen, try this:
Go to Webcam Center. Click on "Capture" then the "Source" tab, one of two discrete grey tabs just above the video screen.
Under "Extended Settings" you have the options for face tracking: off, continuous or smart. Click it and your computer should actually hold onto this setting until you change it again!
Good luck.

Can't turn off twitter text in iphone4s. Tried settings, notifications, twitter is not an app there. Also tried settings, sounds, tweet, none, and still won't turn off notification for twitter texts.

Can't turn off twitter text notifications. I tried settings, notifications, but the notification center doesn't have the twitter option. I also tried settings, sounds, tweet, none- for alert tones. This is still not turning it off. Twitter people said it's not their problem. Is anyone having this problem?

It sounds like you may have multiple problems, but none of them are likely to be caused by malware.
First, the internet-related issues may be related to adware or a network compromise. I tend to lean more towards the latter, based on your description of the problem. See:
http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/baddns.php
http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/hackedrouter.php
If investigation shows that this is not a network-specific issue, then it's probably adware. See my Adware Removal Guide for help finding and removing it. Note that you mention AdBlock as if it should have prevented this, but it's important to understand that ad blockers do not protect you against adware in any way. Neither would any kind of anti-virus software, which often doesn't detect adware.
As for the other issues, it sounds like you've got some serious corruption. I would be inclined to say it sounds like a failing drive, except it sounds like you just got it replaced. How did you get all your files back after the new drive was installed?

Can't turn off crossfade?

Just got a new iPod Nano 6th G, and I can't turn off crossfading! Every time I skip tracks, it crossfades the old one into new.
I have the 'Audio Crossfade' options in Settings -> Music turned off, and it still crossfades.
Is there some setting in iTunes I need to make? Help!

From the user's guide:
"Crossfading Between Songs
You can set iPod nano to fade out at the end of each song and fade in at the beginning of the song following it.
To turn on crossfading:
1. From the Home screen, tap Settings.
2. Tap Music, and then tap [the off switch] next to Audio Crossfade."
From the OPs first post:
"I have the 'Audio Crossfade' options in Settings -> Music turned off, and it still crossfades."
So I guess they did read the user's guide.

Can you turn off color function on HP officiate 6600

Can you turn off color function on HP officiate 6600 on printer so it will still run without color cartridges? I just need to print a black and white word document and it won't let me without replacing the color cartridges.

Hi @justwest,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I see that you are wondering if you can turn off the color function on HP officiate 6600 so you can print without color cartridges. I am happy to answer this question for you!
This particular printer uses some color inks even when printing in black only. If you did run out of color and kept printing black only, you will cause problems with the printhead. FYI,HERE is the user guide to your printer, see page 72. I've also linked page yield information HERE.
Hope this answers your question, and have a good day!

How can I turn off the WLS 6.1 security in order to develop my own application-based security module?

Dear Colleagues,
I am currently developing a J2EE application using WLS 6.1.
My team and I have to implement a security requirement to suit our company's needs.
The security requirements are that, users' password need to be aged (30 days maximum) and we need to provided a GUI front-end (JSP) to allow users to change their password when these expire after 30 days.
Our internal contacts in the company, have already taken the lead to find out about whether we will be able to use the WLS 6.1 platform to do this and the answer we got back, was.
Now we need to develop our own security module.
I have 2 questions:
1. How can we turn off the WLS security in order develop our own application-based security module?
2. How can we develop a security module that allows us to age users' password and provide them with facilities to change their passwords when these expire?
At the moment, we are using the default BEA WebLogic login.jsp page and there some configuration in the web.xml for this. I will be grateful if you could advise me on how to turn this default security off so that we can write our own security module.

hi,
1.You can write your own realm in 61 which can plugged for your security
calls.
2. once you write your ownrealm.. you can access it through weblogic
api/ur api..
thanks
