How to stop ringing alert (fire alarm ringing) after start-up!

I have had an unexpected ringing alert (fire alarm) ring) occur right after the computer starts up with all the applications showing on the screen...and sometimes I will come home and find that it had been ringing all day. I have checked as many places as I could for alerts but I see none are enabled. Does anyone know how I can solve this issue? My second issue is that my mouse will not stay on the option I want to press...it flutters around all the choices. Any suggestions on fixing this issue? Thank you.

I had the exact same problem. Come to find out it was a bad keyboard. Try plugging in the mouse in the back of you mac instead of the keyboard. This helped me isolate the keyboard as the problem. Apple sent me a replacement.

    Hi,
    in OEM 10g GRID How to stop mailng alerts in OEM ?
    Thank you.

    I never excluded explicitly 'english' from the list, so I don't know what will happen doing this. But by default on a non-english server (that's at least my experience) you ever have preselected 'english' and your native language (in my case 'german'). I guess it's the same for OP, of course 'french' instead of 'german'. So he/she should change the browser default language and see what happens. If language remains 'french', no english components exist.

    how to stop the gray wheel from spinning after logging out?

    Frank ...
    Make sure to quit all open applications before logging out.
    Your proflie indicates your Mac has v10.7.1 installed.
    If that is the case, updating your system software will help as far as functionaly as well as security.
    Install the OS X Lion Update 10.7.5 (Client Combo)
    Then restart your Mac.

  • How to stop downloading a podcast that has already started?

    Hi, can someone please help me with this. I accidently started downloading a podcast i didn't want. How do i stop it?

    There is a button to the right of the name that looks like a stop square with a blue ring forming around it. Click that and it will stop downloading.  If you swipe it and select delete it will kill the data (be warned tho, it will also kill that podcast selection and I don't know how to get it back!)

  • How to stop an email from being sent after I hit send?

    How can I immediately stop an email from being sent after clicking "send"?
    I can't seem to find any info on this. I am assuming that it is impossible. Correct?

    When sending the emails with larger attachments that take a little time to actually upload and get out, you can open the activity viewer by pressing command-0 (or is it command-o?--)--it may also be under the window menu at the top--I'm not at my Mac right now to check. The activity viewer has a stop button on it. After you stop it, you should be able to either delete the email from the outgoing mail folder or drag that email to another folder, such as the drafts folder. I've done this a few times without a problem.

  • How to stop executing a piece of code after displaying the error message?

    Hi All
    I'm new to ADF, I am doing validation in java class. Like when i click the button, the control goes to a particular method, where i have written the below statements
    public void fetchValues(ActionEvent actionEvent){
    String firstName = getFirstName() == null ? "" : getFirstName();
    String secondName = getSecondName() == null ? "" : getSecondName();
    if(firstName.equals("") && secondName.equals(""){
    FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
    FacesMessage msg = new FacesMessage(FacesMessage.SEVERITY_ERROR, null, "Please enter the values");
    context.addMessage(null, msg);
    System.out.println("Exited"); // Even if validation fails, this line is being executed. Could anyone tell me how to stop executing this line if validation fails ?
    Regards

    Just add a return; at the point you want to stop execution.
    public void fetchValues(ActionEvent actionEvent){
    String firstName = getFirstName() == null ? "" : getFirstName();
    String secondName = getSecondName() == null ? "" : getSecondName();
    if(firstName.equals("") && secondName.equals(""){
    FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
    FacesMessage msg = new FacesMessage(FacesMessage.SEVERITY_ERROR, null, "Please enter the values");
    context.addMessage(null, msg);
    return;
    // UNREACHABLE System.out.println("Exited"); // Even if validation fails, this line is being executed. Could anyone tell me how to stop executing this line if validation fails ?

  • How to stop javascript alert popups from stealing tab focus?

    I have two gmail accounts, and usually a lot of tabs open. So sometimes I log into my other gmail account while a tab somewhere else still is logged in to my other. Sooner or later, the gmail with the old login session notices this, and makes a little alert() popup telling me I've been logged out, a couple minutes after I checked my emails on the other account.
    Now the problem is, that firefox because of this alert() popup instantly jumps to that tab, and I lose my place in my tab-jungle. This is very annoying. How do I prevent this inactive tab from stealing my focus/alert messages autofocusing tabs?

    Hello,
    Yes I know, but I don't want to do this. Is there any way to stop firefox from behaving this way?
    Thanks

  • How to Stop IMac to IMac Wireless Transfer Once Started

    I'm transferring old IMac Files to a New IMac using Airport because I didn't have the correct fire wire. What a mistake. 24 hours later it is still transferring. Is there a way to stop the transfer, hook-up the $14 fire wire and restart the transfer?
    Thanks

    There should be a small Copy window that shows progress. Next to the progress bar (on the right), there is a little x. Click the x.
    Connecting the two with a standard Ethernet cable will not be as fast as FireWire, but it will be much faster than AirPort 802.11g (or b). If both Macs have gigabit Ethernet, then it will be VERY fast (as long as the cable is Cat-5e or better).

  • How do you get alerts for expired events after iCal starts?

    Hello,
    If this has been covered please point me to the right direction because I couldn't find it.
    When I get into work I wan't to be alerted to any events that have happened between me shutting off my computer the night before and starting up my computer for that day. Currently, if I start iCal after the time the alarm is suppose to go off I will never see that event. Is there an option to show these past events when iCal starts?

    I get no menu that comes up when choosing import from device, only a finder level window allowing me to choose where I want to import files from. I did have to unmount, unplug and reinsert the CF card to get the "Import from Mass Storage Device" dialog that is what comes up when a card is inserted after Lightroom is already running and visible.
    The problem I am having is that 'Import from Device' is grayed out when the card is already inserted before I start Lightroom. That is why I could not choose it. Otherwise, if I go about it normally, to insert the card after Lightroom is running, the choice for "Import from Device" is not grayed out, but it doesn't matter then really because that menu comes up automatically after I insert the card.
