Is There A Way To Make The "Check Out CNN On Twitter" Pop-Up Stop?

I had an old DVR that I had to get rid of and before that I got this annoying pop-up to stop appearing but it's been weeks with my new DVR and no matter what I do it keeps popping up on the screen. Sure, you just hit 'exit' on the remote and it goes away but it keeps coming back and I'd like to know how to disable it.
Just to note, I have gone into the menu --> settings --> PopUp Alerts and have set it to "Never Show Me Again." Is there something else I should be doing???

Hi bushleaguer,
I believe that you are referring to the Interactive TV information that pops up in the upper right corner of the screen several seconds after tuning to channels such as CNN and History. I find these to be extremely annoying and was thrilled when I finally discovered how to get rid of them. This function can be disabled by following this path:
Menu > Settings > Television > Interactive TV > Disable > OK > Exit
Hope this helps.
FYI - I do not have PopUp Alerts disabled.

  • Since downloading the 2013 Keynote upgrade, the slide image size on handouts with 3 slides per page option is very small. Is there a way to make the slide size larger while still keeping 3 slides per page   lines?

    With the new Keynote upgrade (version 6.1), the slide image size on handouts is very small, which makes it difficult to read slide content when compiling lecture notes for students. Is there a way to make the slide size larger while still keeping to a format of 3 slides per page with lines?

    A number of posts have reported the same issue, two workarounds:
    1
    check the paper handling options or equivalent in your print dialogue box and set to scale to fit

    in the Keynote option, in the dropdown menu in the Print section, select Individual Slides
    then choose Layout, and set the number of pages, when printed you will have multiple pages on a single sheet.

  • Is there a way to make the icon/words larger on the screen without changing the screen resolution?

    Is there a way to make the icons/words larger on the screen without changing the screen resolution?

    If you right-click in the top of title bar of any  Finder window there is an option to un-check 'use small icon size', though toggling between the two makes little difference on my screen.
    Another trick is you can zoom the whole screen by holding down the 'control' key and using a two-finger swipe up on the trackpad to enlarge, down to go back to normal.

  • Is there a way to print the check register with the Text field

    Hi,
    Is there a way to print the check register with the Text field and also each item's Text field?"
    When we enter a invoice we enter a generic text on the Basic Data tab then enter a "+" on each individual line item which in turns defaults to the generic text. Just wanted to know if the check register could draw in the individual line item detail where we can enter text that relates to just that line item. Sort of like the MIR7 draws in the detail for each item.
    Kindly help me in full fill the above requirement.
    Thanks

  • Is there a way to make the colour picker in the toolbar bigger?

    Hi,
    Is there a way to make the colour picker in the toolbar bigger?
    I've been using Illustrator for some time now and find this part of the software to be annoying as I frequently mis-click this tiny area and the switching between foreground and background colour is easily mismanaged and you end up changing the colour of the one you didn't intend and then have to make two clicks to remedy that.
    Do any other users find this to be a badly designed part of the software?
    Also, while I'm here I suggest that when in the colour creation dialogue the 'preview' tick can somehow be switched to on as default.
    I can understand that there are situations where it might be better not to see your colour change in the document in real time, but to have to click this (again very small) tick box again and again feels like bad design.
    ^ both the above are frequent tasks for many users
    Interested to hear if there's any work arounds to fix this.

    Thanks for the tip,
    I do use x and shift x and also / to make a no stroke or no fill. But / is a long way across the keyboard. I guess I could reassign that function to a key that's nearer x.
    I think the real annoying bit is not only the small size of the two overlapping squares, but the fact that they change size depending on which one is selected. So the button that is not selected is encroached by the one that is selected (and overlaps it). This to me seems counter to interface design - ie, make the switch button smaller. Worse still is the no fill / no stroke button; insanely tiny.
    I would gladly redesign this corner of Illustrator for Adobe, and I'm sure quite a few other people would too!

  • HT4972 I replaced the computer I originally used to synch my iPhone. I get the message stating that my content will be erased, even though this is the computer I now synch with. Is there a way to make the update recognize the new computer?

    I replaced the computer I originally used to synch my iPhone. When trying to update to iOS5.0, I get the message stating that my content will be erased, even though this is the computer I now synch my phone with. Is there a way to make the update recognize the new computer so that my content will be kept?

    The best option is to copy your entire iTunes folder from your old computer to your new one using one of the methods described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527.  This will allow iTunes on your new computer to recognize and sync with your phone without deleting content.  You will also need to copy over any other synced data not in your iTunes library such as photos synced to your phone, calendars and contacts.
    If you can't do this, these articles will help you start syncing with your new computer with minimal or no data loss:
    Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive
    Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device

  • Is there a way to make the mouse bigger

    Is there a way to make the mouse bigger

    Yes.  In System Preferences > Universal Access > Mouse & Trackpad tab > move the cursor size slider more to the right.  The graphics aren't very good the larger the size but a slight increase really helps.

  • Is there a way to make the music that plays on my iPhone 5 sound like it does on iTunes?

    I notices that the music that is played on iTunes sounds a lot clearer than it does when I listen to my music on my iPhone. Is there any way to make the music on my iPhone sound more clear?

    Have you not got a backup of your content on, for example, external drives or CDs/DVDs ? If not then you could see if any of the utilities mentioned in this old post still work : https://discussions.apple.com/message/11014893?messageID=11014893#11014893 .
    In terms of photos, then for those taken with the iPhone or saved from emails/websites then see this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
    For photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer (which has a free lite version called Simple Photo & Video Transfer) which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to a device, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

  • Is There a Way to Make the Background App Be Useable?

    Hi. Is there a way to make the background useable? For example, you have a fullscreen only app in the background and you want/wanted (which is the correct grammar btw, those who're native speakers and why?) and you have Safari for some tutorial, is there a way to access the background app (for example if it's a drawing app you're learning).
    It is possible I guess if the background is/was (which is the correct grammar again btw and why) was resizable.
    Thanks in advance.
    Gbu.

    Another way to be able to get to the tutorial in Safari would be to double-click the titlebar of the drawing app's window. Doing that should minimize it, dropping it into the Dock, thus making the Safari window visible. You can bring the drawing back up and front by clicking its icon in the Dock.
    I can see a lot of confusion happening if it were possible to have the top window inactive and one in the back of it active. One would have to be really alert as to which window was the active one, to avoid something happening in the wrong place. I'm glad it doesn't work that way.
    As far as the drawing app not behaving in accordance with Apple's guidlines re full-screen windows, well, that's on the publisher of the program. Apple publishes developer guidelines for a reason.

    Is there any way to make the page size of a PDF document smaller?  I'm at 30"x36" and want 8.5"x11"

    The quickest way is to print to a new PDF and use shrink to fit. Be sure you set the paper size in the printer properties. Normally this is not recommended, but it is a quick approach. You would loss any bookmarks and other markup with the print.

  • Is there any way to make the cursor appear larger in Mac OS X?

    Wow, love my 27" screen, but have trouble finding the cursor! Is there any way to make the cursor appear larger? Perhaps adjustable for fine print capture?
    Thanks!

    System Preferences -> Universal Access -> Mouse -> Cursor size
    However, I prefer using Mouse Locator (free download)

    I like this Mouse Locator Graphic

    when i Add a anchor point, without converting it?
    i like to be automatic just like in photoshop pentool.

    1. Path with straight segment selected.
    2. PenTool: click the segment to add the anchorPoint. If the straight segment has no handles extended, the added anchorPoint will be a corner point. The added anchorPoint is selected.
    3. Click the Convert To Smooth button in the Control Panel. The anchorPoint is converted to Smooth and its handles are auto-extended.
    OR
    3. Press Alt to invoke the convert tool. ClickDrag the just-added AnchorPoint to drag out both its handles to the length desired. If SmartGuides is on, the handles will snap to the segment.
    If a segment is straight and has no extended handles, clicking the segment with the Pen tool adds a corner AnchorPoint with no handles extended.
    If a segment is straight and has either of its handles extended, clicking the segment with the Pen tool adds a Smooth AnchorPoint with both handles extended.
