How do I configure the settings(?) to not have to log in every time I fire up a dark screen?  I'm coming off a PC.

Open System Preferences, go to Accounts (or Users and Groups if you're on 10.7), click Login Options, change Automatic Login to the name of your account. You will have to authenticate with your password. If all the boxes are greyed out, click the padlock first to unlock the screen.

    Once you've signed in the first time, don't sign out and you'll never be prompted again.

  • How do I configure the settings on my MBP and Apple TV so it will stream my Netflix movies from my MBP to the TV Screen?]

    I bought a new Apple TV 3rd Gen.(which is currently updated) so I could stream the Netflix movies on my MacBook Pro Computer running Yosemite, onto my TV Screen. However, if I configure the settings on my Computer and Apple TV so that everything on my Desktop is displayed on the TV Screen, then Netflix can't even get the movie on my MBP open. It just keeps spinning until I get an error message about not being able to use Mirroring or Air Play if I want to stream my movie to the TV. So, when I switched the settings so that all mirroring and Air Play options were unchecked and selected all the streaming options using the internet. Then the Netflix movie would open up quick and easy, but there was nothing on the TV Screen.
    I also was never able to Pair my Apple TV with my Bluetooth.(If they;re even supposed to be Paired, but something I read implied they should be Paired.f)  My MBP Bluetooth discovered the Apple TV immediately and issued a Pairing Number to enter in the Bluethooth's setting for the Apple TV, but the Apple TV Bluetooth just kept spinning. I don't know if that is part of the problem or not, since it wasn't mentioned in any documentation I read.
    Also, when I was digging for information on the browser, going to Netflix Website and Apple TV's information at apple.com, I did come across a few links while searching the browser for any answers to my questions, that said I needed to Activate my Netflix Account for streaming by finding my Apple TVs activation code and then enter it on Netflix's site in my Netflix account.  And other's mentioned a registration code from my Apple TV needed to be entered to activate the "streaming" of Netflix movie content. And again, I've searched for hours and hours trying to find out where or how I could find the two codes, but never had any success. So, I have exhausted all avenues I can think of and with no luck, and I'm hoping my wonderful Apple Community can help me out or get me heading in the right direction.  Thanks, RVAF

    There is a native Netflix app on Apple TV. If you are attempting to use a VPN via MBP then that is not supported.

  • How can I change the settings so notes don't sync to my email?

    I don't like how notes always syncs to my email, because it's pretty much send my diary out, even it there's not much stuff there. How do I change the settings so they don't sync?
    Thanks. It might seem like an obvious question, but I can't find the preferences in settings.

    Go to Preferences in Mac Mail on your computer. Open Accounts. Open Gmail Account. Select Mailbox behaviors and uncheck "Show notes in inbox". I just figured it out a couple minutes ago, but so far notes will update on the computer, iphone and ipad and nothing has been erased.

  • How can I get MY LOGIN to stay logged in for twoweeks or more.....Currently I have to log in every time I go to firefox with ID & Password. The box does not affect it.

    When I click on the Firefox logo it owns screen and the mail box button appears. I click on that and it requires me to enter my e-mail address and password. There is a box with a checkmark in it to stay logged in but it doesn't work. Whether it is once a day or 4 times a day I go to Firefox to look at mail I have to put in the full e-mail address and password even though the box is checked to stay logged in. I really like firefox as a browser but we have to fix this for me to stay with FireFox.

    Apps can only be updated using the same Apple ID and password they were originally purchased with.

  • How do I stop the check plug in page from popping up every time I double click the firefox desktop icon?

    Two pages pop up when I double click the firefox icon on the desktop, the home page and the check plug in page. How do I stop the check plug in page from repeatedly popping up when I double click the firefox icon?

    ''I uninstalled AOL IM and disabled MetaStream 3 Plugin but that didn't work either. I don't currently have viewpoint media player that I'm aware of. ''
    '''''MetaStream 3 Plugin''' MetaStream 3 Plugin r4 Unknown plugin Research''
    This is apparently the Viewpoint Media Player plugin '''npViewpoint.dll'''. Even though you don't see the Viewpoint Media Player listed in your list of installed programs, it might be listed as a different application.
    Disabling the MetaStream 3 Plugin in the Firefox Add-ons Manager removes it from the about:plugins list but apparently does not stop the PluginCheck from finding it. You should re-enable the MetaStream 3 Plugin in the Firefox Add-ons Manager list of plugins. You can then find and remove the plugin file '''npViewpoint.dll''' from your computer, using the following instructions, from this thread at mozillazine:<br>

    The Plugin Check page listed about eight plugins with status listed as "unknown plugin." It turns out that the very last one on the list, ''''MetaStream 3 Plugin'''', which dated all the way back to 1/13/2004, was the one triggering this "Update" Nag. Here's what I did.
    #Enter about:config into the address bar
    #Locate the preference 'plugin.expose_full_path' by typing it into the filter bar
    #Toggle that preference true (right click, toggle)
    #Enter about:plugins in the address bar
    #The resulting "Installed Plugins" list will now show the full path and file name of the associated plugin DLL file.
    #Simply go to the directory of the suspect plugin (using Windows Explorer or whatever) and rename the DLL file (I just appended '.OLD' to the DLL file name, e.g., ''''npViewpoint.dll'''.OLD')
    #Quit firefox (file, exit) and restart.
    #If you don't get redirected to the Plugin Check page then problem solved. If you do get redirected to the Plugin Check page then the plugin you just nuked (by renaming the DLL file) should be gone from the list.
    #Repeat with the other "unknown plugins" until you don't get redirected upon Firefox startup.

  • "the video is not available". this message appears every time I try to watch a video on youtube or m.you tube on iPad 2 IOS6

    Why do I get the following message whenever I try to watch any video on either youtube or m.youtube?
    "the video is not available"
    The video is certainly available as I can watch the identical video on my macbook.
    I have an ipad 2, runnug IOS6

    Do you have an example of such a video?
    If you went to m.youtube.com did you switch to "Desktop" mode at some point? If so, switch back to "Mobile version" (at bottom of page).

  • How do I prevent the new tab page resetting to default (blank) every time I restart Firefox?

    I have used about:config to set the new tab page to the Firefox start page (value = about:home) and clicked OK. But every time I shut down Firefox it resets itself to a blank newtab page.

    '''browser.newtab.url''' change the value here

  • MacBook Pro Retina, Yosemite. I don't use Adobe CS5 any more. How do I kill the "To open 'CS5ServiceManager'" window that pops up every time I start up

    I want to kill a ADOBE product related window that pups up on startup.

    Look in a few locations in your finder under Library/Startupitems  and also /Launch Daemons and /Launch Agents (also under Library) and also look under you "user account name"/library for these same sub folders.  Also look in the System Preferences panel for "users" and then click the Login Items tab.
    Somewhere in one of those places will be a file that is starting that Adobe item. Copy it as a back up to another place and then delete it and reboot to see if it gets rid of that message. Then if it does, test Creative Cloud, etc,  to make sure that still functions as expected.

    Dreamweaver CS3 creates "_notes" directories. I don't want the "_notes" directories. How do I configure DW CS3 to not create those directories?

    No, it makes no difference to Run-time styling.
    A design-time stylesheet is a stylesheet that is only applied to the page as you are working in DW. This is very handy if you have elements on the page which are normally hidden/visible and you want to toggle that visibility while in Design view. Or when you have content that is styled in a way that DW doesn't understand, but the browsers do - you can use a DT stylesheet to modify this styling in Design view only. I'll give you an example -
    There is a metric that is used for font sizing called "rem". A rem is a relative em value - in other words, it specifies the ratio between the actual character size and the size of a base definition for the character size on the page. In previous versions of DW, this metric was not supported. So text content was abnormally large as a result when looking at a page using Design view. A DT stylesheet solves that problem by redefining the character size in px, but only when I am working in DW. Here's a good explanation (http://www.css-tricks.com/rems-ems/)
    You also will lose (I believe) details about which files have been recently synched, and some of your local settings for guides and snap to guides.
