Blocking Notifications

How do I block a notification that keeps on popping up for me to buy an app when I have already deleted the free trial version of the app.

Hi Kellypolignano, welcome to the forums,
which operating system is installed on the systems? Are the students clicking on something; desktop shortcut or..., to provoke the notifications and can that something be removed from the user profile?

Is there a way to block add-ons from being installed in Firefox, even add-ons coming from 3rd party sites?

I work in a small call center and I have been working on trying to convince IT and management to use Firefox on the computers on the call floor. The main issue I have been having in convincing them, is that you can't block add-ons and things like that as easily as in IE. I thought I had it with blocking addons.mozilla.org, which wouldn't allow access to Mozilla's add-on site. However, with that, techs would still be able to go to 3rd party sites, generally the creators of the add-ons, and download them there. Anybody have any ideas on how to stop this?

You can configure Firefox settings to notify you before installing an add-on.
-> click Firefox '''button''' and click '''Options''' (or Tools Menu -> Options)
* '''Security''' panel -> place Checkmark on '''Warn me when websites try to install add-ons''' -> click '''Exceptions''' button -> click '''Remove All Sites''' button and click '''OK'''
* click OK on Options window
Check and tell if its working.

Folders don't exist for blocked add-ons. If they do, where are they?

I read and followed all the instructions for uninstalling blocked add-ons. Safe mode didn't enable the Uninstall buttons and the folders for blocked add-ons don't exist in either the profile or installation extensions folders. They still show up as installed. Now what?

Where did you find instructions for removing '''blocked addons'''? <br />
I have seen articles for un-installing '''''disabled extensions''''', but not '''blocked''' ones.
Specifically which addon are you referring to? Chances are that addon was installed globally, through the Registry, and the actual addon isn't even in any Firefox related folders on your hard drive. That makes it difficult to find.

Could the method of blocking add-ons be changed so that it does not prevent uninstalling those add-ons?

I have Firefox version 3.6.13. One of the add=ons it came with is blocked from running, and won't uninstall.

You can disable block listing temporarily to see if that allows to uninstall the extension. Some extensions are installed globally and can't be uninstalled via Firefox.

How to block add-ons from getting automatically reinstalled?

Two add-ons, particularly, get reinstalled every time I launch mozilla firefox. These are advertisement add-on. I have to disable and remove them as they interfere with my work. Is there a way to dlete them permanantly?

PCI-6251 into LABVIEW DAQ Assist block interruptions and resets

Signals being received from PCI-6251 into a LABVIEW DAQ Assist block interrupts and resets every 10 seconds after 1 minute of data acquisition. Would this be a memory buffer problem or is it something related to the hardware? I am using a BNC-2110 hardware connector. Please view the attached image.

Hey Peter,
Ahh, I understand the graph now! Hmm, this is very strange behavior. Instead of using the DAQ Assistant, try to use the explicit DAQmx VIs (see picture). You have more explicit control over what is going on with the DAQmx VIs and keep as much as you can out of the loop.
Regards,
Erik

Facebook Notifications

Okay, when I first got my BB I installed Facebook and everything was working perfectly. The last three days I have not been receiving notifications. I checked my Facebook settings and all my notifications are set to "on", my email address is correct, and my BB is logged into Facebook. I have tried reinstalling, turning phone off/on, removing battery...all to no avail. Can anybody help me?? Please?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

....also, I'm very close to sending my BB through a wall right now because I've been trying to troubleshoot this problem all day.

[PlayBook] Sort-order of "MyWorld", "Update all" and notifications

One of the things that bugs me when using the App World on my PlayBook is the fact, that when the "My World" tab features updates, I have to scoll through the whole list to see which Apps got updates and apply them.
Would be much better if they were on top of the list just like on Android 2.2+ devices because it's much usable interface.
Also, an "Update all" button is missing. Because there are no automatic notifications that tell you (without opening the App World App) that there new updates available, it's possible that you only check for updates once a week or less frequent. Then when you check, there are so many updates that clicking those update-buttons makes you angry (or at least annoyed .
So three things an update of the App World on the PlayBook should cover:
1) display Apps in My World that got updated on top of the list,
2) check for updates in the background and notify the user via notifications and
3) add an "Update all" button to click one instead of ten buttons.

Did anyone think about the update all button?
It's still missing in OS 2 but after just having to approve some updates, it continues to be one of the things that would be nice to have

Cannot customize contact notifications on BB Classic

I can get custom ringtones for different contacts, but I can't get custom notifications for contacts (a different tone for texts from a specific contact) to work. I see how it's supposed to work (notifications-> contact notifications -> choose a contact, etc.)...but no matter how I set it up, it just doesn't work. I get the same notification for everyone.
Is anyone else having this problem? Any solutions?

Ditto. I just purchased the classic from A&TT and I cannot change the text and email notifications for specific contacts. The ringtone is changed, but not these notifications. It shows them changed, but there is no sound when an email or text comes in from that contact. Do I have the sound turned off somewhere? I had a bold 9900, so this is my first experience with the 10 operating system. I'm not sure what the different profiles mean. Perhaps I don't have something switched on. Anyway, it is aggravating.

Unable to customize notifications & wallpaper.

On My BB Z10, after going to System Settings and selecting Notifications, I am unable to customize notifications for contacts & applications. Also I'm not able to change wallpaper. On clicking the select wallpaper option (under Display Settings) , the list of other wallpapers does not come up and nothing happens.
The OS on the device is 10.2.1.3062
Please Help.

Sounds like you have set up the Blackberry OK to use the wireless internet connection,
but you also need to set up the E-Mail aswell, as you will have a new E-Mail server from your new Internet service provider.
From the Main Menu click "Setup" then either the "Setup Wizard" followed by "E-Mail",
or go straight to "E-mail settings" and follow the on screen instructions.

Notifications not going away

Hello
I have a Curve 8330 and I received two notifications on the very top of my screen that I needed to update some apps on my phone. I went into my BlackBerry app word and updated them, but the notification is still on my screen. The same thing is going on with a Facebook notification. I have checked my Facebook, but the icon is still on the top of my screen. Does anyone know how I would remove it?

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
For AppWorld, it is a two-step process:
1) Go into MyWorld and check all of your apps...update any that have such available -- done.
2) Go into Messages and find (you can use search for all services and unread messages) the messages from AppWorld...deal with them (read, delete, etc.) and the icon will go away.
For FB, typically the notification stays on until you read your new messages inside of the FB app on the BB (doing so on the FB website from a PC will not clear the icon on the BB). If it's truly stuck, I suggest a batt-pull reboot:
Anytime random strange behaviors creep in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Good luck and let us know!

My computer is old and any add-on's take up memory space. Usually these cause other programs to not work. How do I block add-ons?

Anything that occupies more space prevents my ability to use my computer. I have taken off all pictures, all programs which I can delete (including games from the Windows program.) I cannot download any new programs because it it at a maxiumum of 50% space occupied. I have to keep the older Firefox program because they use less space. Every so often I have to delete firefox and return to earlier versions because too much has been automatically added on. Then my computer refuses to work.

Also, after [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/ updating to the latest Firefox], you can consider the [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/reset-firefox-easily-fix-most-problems Reset Firefox] feature via '''Help''' ('''Alt''' + '''H''') > '''Troubleshooting Information'''. You can also try to update via Firefox '''Help''' ('''Alt''' + '''H''') > '''About Firefox'''.
(To revert to the previous profile, close the new profile, start Firefox and choose the '''*.default''' profile. While the [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles Profile Manager] is open, you can also delete the newly reset profile (the one containing random numbers)).

It would also be a good idea to periodically clear the cache via '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Clear Recent History'''. Usually the websites cache could be the main reason for the filling up of the hard disk.
Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
To clear cache and cookies do the following:
#Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
#Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
#Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
#From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
#Now click the ''Clear now'' button.

IMAP Notifications broken after 1.3.5 for read messages

After updating my Sprint Palm Pre to 1.3.5, my email notifications do not automatically update their status after messages have been read elsewhere.
For example, prior to 1.3.5, if I recedived 2 new messages on my IMAP account, the Pre would show the notifications for those two messages at the bottom of the screen. If I then went to a desktop email client and read the two messages on the desktop client, the message status would change to 'Read' on the IMAP server, and the Pre would get rid of the notification for each read message almost instantaneously. Now, the Pre retains the notification until you actually go into the email app on the phone.
Anyone else experience this?
Rick
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

There was really only one thing I was hoping that 1.4.0 would fix and it was this incredibly annoying bug that was introduced with 1.3.5. It is still present in 1.4.0! Now with LED notifications finally officially supported (which I'm really very thankful for btw) this issue has become more irritating than ever, the phone will continue blinking for emails that have long been read elsewhere.
When can we finally expect a fix for this?

Phone not ringing and voicemail notifications on SMS not occurring

Can someone help with this issue as it is beginning to drive me nuts ! Phone is not ringing and any voicemail message is not being notified by SMS. This seems to have been happening since late 2013 but can't be sure of that. Is this a SIM card issue, or a possible software issue.

Could be either.
Are you using a Q10? Your profile doesn't show a device or carrier. it really helps us if you have that info added to your profile. Since you're posting in the Q10 forum I'll assume you have a Q10.
I would do a security wipe on the device first:
To perform a Security Wipe please follow the instructions below. Be sure and use BB Link to make a full backup before proceeding with the wipe:
http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB33591
Once the wipe is complete you can restore your backup. Keep in mind that data in the backup may be the source of the original problem and restoring it may restore the problem, as well. To alleviate this I recommend not restoring the Settings portion of the backup.

Calendar Notifications / Alerts / Reminders killing my battery

I haven't found any comments on this specifically....
I have noticed that if I leave a calendar notification/reminder on the screen, my battery dies very rapidly. With the phone in airplane mode, a notification on the screen seems to kill the battery in 6-8 hours (maybe less). If I disable notifications and leave the phone in airplane mode, the battery drops only ~ 5-10% in 6-8 hours.
It looks like pulseaudio, mediaserver, and LunaSysMgr are all pretty active while the notificaiton is on the screen. (I left top running before a notification appeared so I could see what was going on.)
Has anyone else seen this? Perhaps it is well-known and I am missing it in my searches.
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

I saw this before the most recent update. I had noticed that my battery life was generally better on weekends than during the week. It has always been that way. One big difference is that I tend to have a lot of calendar appointments during the work day, and I don't always dismiss them.
In the process of looking at possible improvements (kernels, etc.), I happened to leave Govnah open and noticed that the CPU was running at the higher/max frequency all the time when I had the "on demand" governer enabled when I turned on my phone and there was a notification/reminder on the screen. As soon as I dismissed it, the frequency went down.
So, I went back to the default config and left top running and noticed pulseaudio was running, etc.. With the "normal" / default kernel running, I see the same behavior -- my battery dies very quickly if I leave notifications on the screen (even with the phone in airplane mode).
To clarify... airplane mode is not required to see the issue. I only enabled that as a debug step to eliminate differences due to being connected to a network, etc.. This issuce occurs in airplane mode or when connected to 3G, etc..
