How can I disable the automatic hiding of known file attachments, and why are always about 10 internet pages where I have to download something when I use mozila firefox?
Windows Computer

1) If you are talking about the file names on the computer, there is a
setting to turn off known file types. Open your file browser. Then
just under the location bar, press '''Tools,''' then '''Folder Options.'''
A new window will open. Select '''View.''' Look for
'''Hide Extensions For Known File Types.'''
2) Never NEVER '''NEVER''' download anything unless you know what
it is. If a web site claims it needs to download something, what is it?
It could be something like the flash player, '''or a virus ! !'''
Ask questions, or go somewhere else.

  • How can i disable the automatic move command?

    how can i disable the automatic move command?  when i choose the move command it automatically moves whatever element that's selected, using the previous dimension used to move something.  Big Problem.

    went back to see if Preview was checked - it isn't.
    It happens when we double-click on the arrow to open the move dialouge box, but the box doesn't open - instead the selected item is automatically moved #!@**
    that's what we need to stop... any ideas?

  • VoiceOver Accessibility, how can I disable the automatic speakerphone / handsfree in a phone call?

    The blind people use VoiceOver for use the iPhone, it's a fantastic assistive software.
    For me, there is a feature that would change.
    If VoiceOver is enable, in a call, the speakerphone / handsfree automatic enable with a proximity sensor. I find it uncomfortable!
    There is any way to disable this feature?
    Can I propose it for the next version of IOS?
    Thanks!

    Hi Zoltan,
    Glad to receive your reply.
    According to your description, could you please tell me where you disable the Intellisense option in VS IDE?
    In addition, I tried to reproduce your issue in my side, I found that when I disable the Intellisense by going to TOOLS->options->Text Editor -> C/C++ -> Advanced->IntelliSense->Set the Disable IntelliSense True.
    And then I type such as the If, there have no the if tabulator key in the code editor, so I suggest you can refer the following screen shot check your issue again.

  • How can I disable the blue highlight on textfields in Safari and Firefox, using CSS?

    Hi, I'm trying to disable the default blue highlight on textfields in Safari and Firefox. I can get it to work in Safari by using the following CSS code:
    input {outline-style: none;}
    This doesn't work for Firefox, though.
    Can anyone help me to get it to work in Firefox?
    Thanks in advance!

    Are you referring the the border color or the actual field color?
    For field colour see the section on the input tag.
    However if it is the border color, this is set by the browser o/s, and cannot be changed with any 'cross-browser' technique, it can be changed in IE and other browsers using custom behaviors (IE), or by using custom skins (others).
    But the skins are only enabled by the user, and changing the chrome of the browser for form fields using JavaScript would probably affect the entire browser anyway.

  • How can I disable the automatic opening on the Backup Assistant Plus website (and video) every time I connect my Droid 4 to my computer?

    I am a mobile application developer (iOS and Android).
    Our company bought an unlocked phone.
    We have no need for backups.
    Every time I plug our Droid 4 into the host computer (a Mac),
    it automatically opens this website:
    http://products.verizonwireless.com/index.aspx?id=fnd_backupAssistantPlus&vid=1
    This is *REALLY* annoying.
    Is there any way to disable this (and if so, how)?
    Thanks,
    Chuck

    This can be a highly frustrating problem. I just spent 45 minutes working on an email. Nearing the end I go to grab my mouse after typing and accidentally hit mouse 4 and lose everything. This isn't the first time I have lost work or an email. I would say the ONLY reason why there currently lacks a strong feedback against this is because the majority of people do not have mouse 4+5 buttons on their mice. Please add the option to just disable this "feature". It's just far to easy to accidentally hit these buttons accidentally and potentially lose a lot. I don't know anyone who actually uses these buttons anyways.

  • How can I get the drop down window for a ID and P/W "Always remember" Auto Fill

    Recently I had a mail issue with my ATT (Yahoo)  Mail account and they temporarily changed by Password.
    After the issue was resolved I changed it back but the auto fill kept the temporary Password in Safari when I log onto my e-mail account via the internet instead of the Apple Mail program.
    In the Past, whenever I would put a different P/W or ID there would be a drop down window that said :
    Never, later or Always remember", at least something like that terminology.
    Since I have had no reason to change P/W or ID lately I do  ot know if it is Lion issue or if there is a way of getting the drop down to appear.
    Thanks,
    Greg

    If I am not making my request understood, please let me know and I will try and reword it.
    It is always easy to understand what I are asking but it does not always mean that others understand it.
    Thanks,

  • How can I disable iPhoto automatic launch?

    Hi,
    I do not use iPhoto to import my digital images. How can I disable the automatic launch when I plug my camera or card reader?
    Thanks!

    Hi Paul,
    To do this just open Image Capture, open its preferences and then under the general tab you can select the option of "When a camera is connected, open:"
    Just select no application and that should do it.

  • How can I disable the Photos app from automatically running when I plug in my iPhone?

    How can I disable the Photos app from automatically running when I plug in my iPhone?
    I have no intention of ever using Photos, in fact, having to abandon Aperture takes me one step close to moving back to Windows, but I digress.
    I just want to NOT have to kill the Photos app every time I plug in my phone.
    Thanks.

    I am still seeing the option Image Capture, like shown in the screenshot that Rysz posted.   But it is another example of the hide-and-seek Apple likes to play with us.
    The option has to be set for each device individually. With the device connected to USB, you have to click the tiny disclosure triangle in the lower left corner of the sidebar to reveal the option.
    I was perfectly happy with the program I paid for (Aperture), and now to maintain the functionality I have to pay for another application (LightRoom) to get the functionality that I paid for in Aperture.
    Aperture 3.6 is working well with Yosemite. I will use it, as long as I have a Mac, that will run Yosemite or a compatible system.
    Have you looked at Capture One?  It looks much more similar to Aperture than Lightroom.

  • How can I disable the system feature which automatically restarts applications i had open during a previous session ?

    How can I disable the system feature which automatically restarts applications i had open during a previous session ?

    When you log out, uncheck the box to reopen applications. If you're still using 10.7.3, then you will have to uncheck the back with each shutdown or restart.
    10.7.4 update was suppose to fix it that when you uncheck the box, it should remain unchecked for restarts after that.

  • How do I disable the automatic startup on HP Photosmart Premier when I turn my computer on?

    Someone else posted ths question a month ago, but still no answers.  Anyone?
    How do I disable the automatic startup on HP Photosmart Premier when I turn my computer on?
    Windows XP, SP3 operating system recently re-installed so I also reinstalled my printer software.  Now, for some reason, each time I turn my computer on, my HP Photosmart C4100 all-in-one photosmart premier software opens.  It is not in my startup.  This slows down my computer terribly, which is why I never used the program before my re-install.  How can I disable this feature?  I only print, I don't use it for photos.
    Any help here is appreciated.

    Run msconfig.exe from the start button (type in msconfig).  When it comes up go to the Startup tab and find and deselect the HP product you do not want to start.  Save and reboot computer.  Now try.
    Say thanks by clicking the Kudos Thumbs Up to the right in the post.

  • How can I disable the memory sharing with the video?

    how can I disable the memory sharing with the graphic card? it makes me impossible to run a software, grandMA2, on windows 7 installed and run via bootcamp. where should I look for changing the preferences of memory and video, on lion or on windows7? thank you

    so what do you think. I run a software on windows 7 running via bootcamp on my mbp, but I can't open it. the software is compatible with windows 7 on mac. I tried opening it as administrator or changing the compatibility options, like running it as windows xp, and changing the resolution of the video. it can't build the window and then it crashes. on internet I found a compatibility list of the software where it says please do not use any shared memory for the graphic card. what does it mean? I have just to remove the check in automatic graphics switching? what should I try to do? thank you.
