Can I eliminate that annoying size box on Rectangular Marquee tool?

I have CS6 on two Mac computers, a desktop and a laptop. On the desktop, everytime I draw a Rectangular Marquee, a very distracting black box with dimensions comes on at the lower right corner of the selection. This does not happen with CS6 on my laptop. I can't find a control to turn this box off. Where is it?

In Preferences > Interface, set Show Transformation Values to "Never".

You can hide the box that shows the snippets with code in userChrome.css

Can't find rectangular marquee tool, etc.

I can select the Quick Selection Tool, which then presents the Quick Selection Tool and the Selecton Brush Tool options in the Tool Options bar (bottom left corner). But nowhere is there an option for rectangular marquee tool or elliptical tool. Please help. (This is for Elements 12)

Hi,
You need to be in Expert Mode to see all the tools - the rectangular and elliptical marquee tools share the same place with the tools options used to select which one you want.

That annoying yellow box

Is there a way to get rid of the yellow box that hovers over the text when you're editing it? I'd like to never has to see the ** thing again.
This one:

I think I've figured it out, and your mention of the carats is what triggered the thought. In the document I'm working on I'm using track changes, and I had to change the first line indent for every paragraph in the document. Most changes in track changes are marked by the carat for deletions and the color blue for inserted text.
When you change the format of a paragraph, however, it can't be indicated by a simple carat because you've altered an entire paragraph, so that annoying box pops up when you hover over a paragraph (and anywhere in that paragraph) whose style has been changed.
If I accept the change on a paragraph, the box stops appearing when I hover over that paragraph. So, it's a 'feature' that gets in the way of actually working on the document.

How can I eliminate this annoying pop-up window?

I am using Flash Player 10 (build 10.3.181.34) under Windows Vista Home Premium SP 2, Firefox 5.01/Internet Explorer 9. I run an application (an internet game) with dozens of mighty images to be displayed on the screen. With nearly every image a window pops up messaging as follows:
"Adobe Flash Player 10 slows down by a script inside this picture. If the script furthermore will be executed, the computer potentially will respond no longer. Do you want to abort the execution of the script?" Buttons: YES or NO
I wonder if it is possible to avoid this window to pop up and in these cases automatically to abort the execution of the script (i.e. conforming to the decison YES).

Yes, it is a good idea to use Find My iPad. To sign out without losing anything, do the following:
If you're running iOS 8.1, save any start by saving any my photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then Save Image. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out, choose Delete from My iPad and provide your password when prompted (any iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Then sign back in (any iCloud data will download back to your iPad).

No. You can't see that on the box. Don't buy iPhones from unauthorized sources and you won't have a problem.

How can I disable "download error" dialog box when saving a complete web page?

Sometimes, when I try to save a web page as type: "Web Page, complete", firefox displays download error dialog box stating a file "could not be saved, because the source file could not be read."
I don't have a problem with firefox couldn't save that file, but I have a problem with firefox displaying that dialog box, because I have to click OK everytime.
Is there a way to disable that annoying dialog box?

I modified the host file mainly to block ads. But that's not the problem. It's OK for me for firefox to not saving some parts of a page (ads usually within a frame). It's my intention to NOT saving those files. I just want to save the main content of a webpage.
But I'm having a problem with firefox displaying the dialog boxes.

Spaces + Rectangular Marquee = annoying error?

Hello,
since about 4 weeks I'm proud owner of Adobe CS3 Design Premium. I use it on Leopard 10.5.2 with spaces and expose activated. And here comes the problem:
If I edit a image in Photoshop, the Rectangular Marquee tool sometimes changes fast between the cursor used in OS-X and the Rectangular Marquee tool cursor. Its impossible to choose anything when this bug occures. I have to restart Photoshop to get this away, just closing the image or selecting another tool does not work. This issue starts randomly after using spaces.
Do you know anything to do against this except stop using spaces? And where can I report bugs on adobes site?
Thanks for helping

This button enabled? See the screenshot.

How can I turn off the annoying yellow boxes that have started appearing?

It seems that recently I have started having annoying yellow boxes appearing when I hover over thing in the finder window. This is something that I didn't have going on in the previous 3 versions of Mac OS X.
Here's an example...
How can I get rid of them?

This appears to be a third party extention of some sort with the bright yellow background? Start there if you modified.

I cannot find this 300GB "Backup" in the Finder, only in the Storage info when I check "About This Mac".
You are probably using Time Machine to backup your MacBook Pro, right? Then the additional 300 GB could be local Time Machine snapshots. Time Machine will write the hourly backups to the free space on your hard disk, if the backup drive is temporarily not connected. You do not see these local backups in the Finder, and MacOS will delete them, when you make a regular backup to Time Machine, or when you need the space for other data.
See Pondini's page for more explanation: What are Local Snapshots? http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html
I have restarted my computer, but the information remains the same. How do I reclaim the use of the 300GB? Why is it showing up as "Backups" when it used to indicate "Photos"? Are my photos safe on the external drive?
You have tested the library on the external drive, and so your photos are save there.
The local TimeMachine snapshot probably now contains a backup of the moved library. Try, if connecting your Time Machine drive will reduce the size of your local Time Machine snapshots.

hi barbara
thank you for your response, i appreciate it. there's definitely nothing wrong with the mouse or trackpad, both work fine in every other application....i can also easily change size dimensions in other programs on my computer so it doesn't seem to be that either. it seems like there is something weird going on in the way that pse and my mac are interacting with each other, just wish i knew what it was. thank you again, wish me luck!

In Captivate 4 swf output, box borders break up. How can I prevent that?

I'm working in Captivate 4. If I capture a screen that includes a box with a thin border, the border sometimes breaks up in the published swf. Parts of the border are missing, and lines display where they shouldn't. (See included image.) Anyone know how I can prevent that?
-Stuart

I'd suggest going into Edit - Preferences - SWF Size and Quality. Try de-selecting the Advanced project compression check box.
Then re-publish.
