Not quite. When invisibles are off you still see the paragraph symbol when you select the text.

  • Can't shut off the voice!

    OK, my son was playing internet games last night and he somehow created four problems that I can't fix.
    1. He's activated the voiceover option. When I go to the System Prefs>speech it's listed as "speakable items off" But it's still speaking to me. (Thank heaven the mute is still working!)
    2. I have hollow black frames around select back buttons, applications, etc.
    3. In my dropdown Apple menu, I now have two "restart" options, two "shutdown" options, two "Logout" options.
    4. My F Keys (for volume, brightness, etc.) are not working without applying the FN key simultaneously.
    Can anyone help me?

    hi ramones_nyc,
    the first three are all definitely related to VoiceOver. perhaps the 4th too, but i don't know - the timing certainly suggests it is too somehow...
    if clicking it on/off in system preferences doesn't help, you could try rebuilding the preferences file.
    go to [home] > Library > Preferences and drag com.apple.universalaccess.plist to the desktop. log out and then in again.
    post back if that didn't help. if it did, go ahead and delete the plist you dragged to your desktop.
    cheers

  • Can you shut off the Internet on a iPhone 4s and still use it with a wifi connection ?

    Can you shut off the Internet on a iPhone 4 and then use the phone as normal

    I assume that you're asking if you can shut off cellular data (as no individual can shut off the Internet! )? Yes, you can turn off cellular data and use the phone features (except for MMS which requires cellular data) and access the Interenet via WiFi.

  • Can you turn off the voice tags when someone rings...

    I think the subject says it all, but here's the story - My girlfriend's sister has an E71, and a ringtone she really likes.  She wants to be able to hear the ringtone without interruption when people call, but for all my poking about in the menu and settings I can't find a way to turn off the voice tag that announces the name of the person ringing.  The tags are somewhat annoying anyway because they don't tend to read Irish names very well 'Grainne' being pronounced as 'grain' and such.
    Can those tags be disabled?  If they can, how?
    Thanks.

    also dont forget to activate the profile your using once this is done or it will revert to default

  • I can't get rid of a "Not Enough Storage" pop-up on my IPad2.  Can't close it and can't access settings.  Can't shut off the device either.  It's just locked up.  What can I do?

    How can I get rid of the "Not Enough Storage" pop-up on my IPad2?  It won't go away, I can't cancel it, I can't access settings, and I can turn off the IPad to reboot.  It is just locked up. 

    Reboot the device.
    Shut down the device by holding the sleep/wake button  and the home button at the same time.
    Hold them both until you see the screen go black. In some cases, you may need to keep holding them even after the red power off slider appears. If it does, just keep holding it.
    Wait until the white Apple logo appears.
    When this happens, you can let go - the iPhone is rebooting.

  • How can I shut off the iPodService?!?!?

    With iTunes 5.x, you could set the iPodService to "Disabled" and keep it from running (useful if you DIDN'T own an iPod!).
    But with iTunes 6.0.2, every time you start the app, it reenables the service.
    How can I shut this damned service off for good? I *don't* have an iPod!!!

    ctl-alt-del > Task Manager > Processes tab, you can end it there.
    Maybe you can use these MSCONFIG directions to disable the iPod Service permanently.

  • Can I shut off the hpsetup network and leave WiFi on?

    Hello,
    I can't believe I can't find this anywhere... I want to shut down the Ad Hoc network hpsetup in my hp 8600 but the only instructions I can find about tell me to disable wireless.
    I want wireless. i am set up in infrastructure mode connecting the printer to my AP. That is all working. but I can see the hpsetup network on the same channel (6).
    Is there any way to disable hpsetup without disabling wireless altogether? Can I move what chanel it uses or does it always use whatever the infrastructure chanel is?
    Thanks!
    Henr

    For printer models before 2011, if you still see a "hpsetup" SSID on your network even after configuring youir printer to connect via infrastructure, you may actually be "seeing" another HP device that is not setup wirelessly but its radio is left on and still broadcasting its adhoc SSID. You may ignore it.
    Click on the KUDOS button on the left to say "Thanks"

  • HT2307 How can you shut off the option command click shortcut that minimizes all windows?

    I can't find a place to turn off the option click shortcut that minimizes the last window and option command click that minimizes all of the other windows. Is there a way to do this? They don't show up (or I can't find them) in the Dock Preferences or the Keyboard Shortcuts.

    I use Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign and that's the zoom shortcut keys with space. If I use another program on my second monitor and go back to that and want to zoom in it minimizes everything else.
    Why reply if you don't know?

  • How can I shut off the automatic login when I turn on my MacBook Pro?

    Ever since I updated to Yosemite I have been forced to enter my password whenever I turn on my MacBook Pro. I went to System Preferences/Users & Groups and see that the automatic login option is set to off, but it is shaded and I can't use the dropdown menu, even though I've unlocked it.
    Is this a common issue? Am I just going to have to get used to signing in every time? I'm the only one who uses it, and it's a little annoying.
    I've tried searching for help in the discussions and also on google, but I'm not finding any answers.
    Help, please!

    Did you turn on FileVault when you upgraded to Yosemite? If it is on then a login password is required (sort of obviously). You can tell whether it is on by going to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Security & Privacy and click FileVault at the top and see if the words "Turn off FileVault" are in the button. I'm the only one who uses my Mac also, but the remote possibility of it being stolen makes it worth it to me to have FileVault turned on and a password required.
