How do you disable the LOUD low battery beep on Envy M6 laptops?

I bought TWO HP Envy M6-1105dx laptops for Black Friday (Too late to return them now). I have spent days and hours speaking with HP tech support, case managers, supervisors, corporate office and senior case managers and it all seems to be the same. "Theres nothing we can do for you, theres nothing wrong." Well, HP is wrong. There is a problem when I listen to your tech suport to change settings, update BIOS and spend hours out of my day to "attempt" to  fix one of your design flaws. Want to know why this beep is a problem? Im a law student. We use our laptops all day for typing notes in class, homework assignments, 4 hour in-class exams (all on the computer) and for work in the library. It is absurd to think that you would sell me $1400.00 worth of computers and expect me to "deal" with a problem that literally scares professors, classmates and others in this type of quiet setting when a loud smoke-detector sounding beep rings through the room. How embarrasing! You just better hope that one day someone, child or adult, is not seriously injured by the reaction to this "smoke detector" alarmingly loud sounding beep. {Content Removed}If anyone else can come up with another solution to fix please help, since everything posted so far has not worked. Thank you!   

it doenst work..pls find a solution because this is anoying

    Hi,
    I do not think there is a solution at this time however you may try this workaround if it works for you. This will disable the notification completely.
    Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Power Options. or simply tyoe Power Options in Metro UI.
    Choose the plan you use most, or do it for all 3 if you switch it up, and click the 'Change plan settings' link under it
    click 'Change advanced power settings'
    after which you will get the power options window, then its just..
    Battery > Low Battery notification > turn it OFF.
    hope it works for you. Good Luck !!!

  • How do you disable the "Touch to return to call" banner on the top of the screen?

    How do you disable the "Touch to return to call" banner on an iPhone 4s and it is factory unlocked?
    Thank you.

    If your trying to just simply have it not show while navigating the OS during a call, then there is no option to disable it. If it's a problem where it's continuing to show after you disconnect a call it could be a fault in code that fails to run the script to terminate the banner need upon disconnect. I would restore the phone using itunes as a first troubleshooting step. Another avenue might be an issue with the phone failing to recognize the end of call signal from the carrier. In which case I would have the SIM card changed. Easy thing to do at your local carrier store.

  • How do you disable the Notification Center in iOS 8?

    How do you disable the Notification Center in iOS 8?  It seems the update has killed this ability.

    Are you in the "today" or "notifications" part of notification center?
    Settings--notifications works for the notifications part but doesn't control the today part of notification center. For that you have to drag down notification center, tap on today, and choose edit from the bottom. From there you can turn off widgets, activate new ones, and change the display order.

  • How do you disable the feature to 'keep iMessage conversations running between two devices'?

    I have 2 apple devices- an iPhone 4 and an iPad 2. When I set my iPad up and set iMessage up set it offered me the option to keep iMessage conversations running between the two devices, and i pressed yes. I now cannot stand this feature because every time I recieve an iMessage, I get two alerts, one on each device. How do you disable it?

    Hi DeltaNomad,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    You can disable the Substitutions feature completely, or add words you frequently use to the substitutions list.  See this information from the Pages User Guide:
    Replace text automatically - Pages Help for Mac
    http://help.apple.com/pages/mac/5.1/#/tanca15d8a79
    When Text Replacement is turned on for the document, a checkmark appears next to Text Replacement in the Substitutions menu. You can deselect Text Replacement to turn it off, but existing text won’t change unless you select the text, and then follow the steps above.
    Choose Edit > Substitutions > Show Substitutions (from the Edit menu at the top of your computer screen).
    In the Substitutions window, select the Text Replacement checkbox, then click Text Preferences.
    Click Text, click the plus sign, then type the text you want to replace (such as “teh”) in the Replace column.
    Type the word you want to replace it with (such as “the”) in the With column.
    Close the window when you’re done editing substitutions.
    Click a button to replace all occurrences of the replacement text in the document, or only in the selected text.
    Cheers,
    - Judy

  • How do you disable the menu asking to confirm putting file to remote?

    I am utterly perplexed by this function.
    When I have check files in /out DISABLED I get this menu asking me to confirm that I want to put a file on the remote because someone else has the file "checked out"
    When I have file check in and out ABLED I get this same !@#E@!~ message.
    I am the ONLY one servicing this website. so why !@$@# am i getting this message telling me that the remote file has changed and that I need to confirm putting the file there.  whats the deal?
    i get asked this if i have check in/out DISABLED and if I have this function ENABLED.
    what can i do to GET RID OF THIS MENU request?  its SOOOOOOOOOOO irritating!
    help! thanks!

    Actually it does not matter whether check in/out is ENabled or DISabled. the same pain in the *** menu problem happens.
    this is the menu i get when it is DISabled
    “X is currently working on www/program/pr_index.php (Please enable Check In/Out in the Site Definition dialog box to avoid overwriting changes made by other users.) Do you want to upload the file anyway?”
    It then gives option:
    Yes, yes to all. No. no to all. Cancel.
    If I click yes to all. It will put it to the remote. Then I can immediately try to put the same file once again to remote and I will then again have to go through this SAME ROUTINE.
    Thus in other words, even with check in/out DISabled I get this message about using check in and check out that is just ridiculous.  Especially because I am the only person EVER editing the website. So how can this seriously possible?
    Thanks for your thoughts on this.

  • How do you disable the shortcut key in Mail that deletes all mail in the trash folder

    Is there a way to disable the shortcut key in Mail in Mountain Lion that deletes all mail in the Trash folder in all accounts: <shift><command><delete> ?
    I did it once by mistake and it deleted all my trash - it is very difficult to restore when there are thousands of messages in various emaiil accounts.
    Thanks

    While you can't (so far as I know) remove it - you can assign a different (& less likely to be used accidentally) one via System Preferences - Keyboard - Shortcuts.
    Go there, create a new one (or 2) for Mail only, and give it the exact name(s) if the menu item(s) in question, capitalisation & ... included.

  • How do you disable the touch screen (Broken and handicapping normal mouse use)

    Hi, I have an ideacentre B540. My two year old daughter did something to my computer when I wasn't in the room and ended up busting it right on the top left corner. There is only one hairline crack that was visable in the upper left corner. I've found a replacement LCD screen, but cannot afford it right now, so... Meanwhile, I would like to just disable the touch portion of my computer, because often, it will think it is active (probably damaged the sensor in the fall :-P and take the power away from my  mouse, open random windows, and generally... Make an otherwise normal PC unuseable. Is there ANYTHING that I can do to disable the touch pad? Even a list of the touch specific processes that I can immediately delete upon startup would be great, because it seems to give me a few minutes before it decides to start acting up. Thanks!

  • How do you disable the split screen / multi-window feature.

    I have had my phone for 2 days, and I can not figure out how to turn off the split screen/multi-window feature. It pops up automatically at the worst times and it is getting very frustrating. I have read many things on how to use it, but have yet to find any thing that explains of to disable it.

    Well, it doesn't seem that there is a way. But I solved my
    problem because my minimal player was Flash 7,0,29,0 and reset the

  • How do I disable the Symantics TouchPad on my HP Envy 14t notebook?

    I have tried to modify the sensitivity of the touchpad on my laptop, but it's still so touchy it's driving me crazy. The other issues I looked at here in the Community forum don't pertain to the machine or utilities I have.
    I want to COMPLETELY DISABLE it and use a plug-in mouse.  Where is the option to disable the touchpad?
    I have uninstalled the Symantic TouchPad driver, but the touchpad still shows up as a device as "PS/2 Compatible Mouse." When I open its Mouse Properties dialog, on the Driver tab, the Disable button is grayed out.
    How do I COMPELTELY DISABLE the touchpad and just use a plug-in mouse on the HP Envy 14t notebook?

    @kiltinshire, 
    Thanks for posting back.&nbsp; As you may be aware there are multiple versions of HP notebooks, most&nbsp;control functions are found in the user guide.&nbsp; If you can not find it there then you would have to go to how to disable hard ware in windows.&nbsp; That is a microsoft topic.
    You&nbsp;normally have 2 choices to&nbsp;physically shut it off.&nbsp; First the touchpad has a little button in a corner depending on model.&nbsp; Use a function key it will have a diagram of a square and a finger.&nbsp; These methods have been used for years for turning your touchpad off.&nbsp;
    Next is just google how to turn off touchpad in windows 8.&nbsp; Here is a couple links that you may find&nbsp;useful that I found using that search.
    TouchPad and Keyboard
    How to Enable and Disable Touch Pad on HP ENVY
    Disable Laptop Touchpad in Windows 8 / 7
    How to disable laptop touch pad in windows 8
    Now if you are actually trying to find a way of permanently shutting off the touchpad so that it does not come on again you will have to dig into Windows help for that.  If Windows sees the hardware at start up it will by default try and load the base driver for it and most likely turn it on when you reboot.
    The only other way is to open up your notebook and disconnect the cable that goes from the touch pad to the motherboard so that does not happen.
    I am hoping that helps.
