Can I Stop my Images from being Copied from my Web Pages

On some websites I visit, it prevents you from right clicking on the image and saving it. A message pops up saying the image cannot be copied.
Would any of you kind folk know of a way I can stop my images from being saved from my Dreamweaver web pages?
Many thanks in advance for your anticipated help!

I asked a question. Hans was kind enough to give me a solution, and for that I thank him! I have also learned a little more in the process!
We have already established that the solution stops people right clicking on an image and saving the image (be it in Windows Explorer or not), but it has also been established that it is by no means a fool proof way of protecting images and that there are other ways of copying images from a webpage. However, it is another level of protection.
Unfortunately, I do not want to watermark my images as I do not like looking as watermarked images myself. I also downsize my images for the web. I was just looking for another level of protection.
Thanks for the input anyway!

Prevent Requested Delivery date from being copied from one quote to another

Hello SAP Guru's,
How do I prevent the requested delivery date and the first date from being copied when I am creating a new quote with reference to an existing quote? What do I have to change in the copy control settings? I want everything else to be the same.
Sincerely,
Ketan

How can i stop tabs currently not being viewed from needing to be reloaded when i switch to it?

When I am viewing a website in firefox mobile, if I open a link in a new tab, switch to this link, and stay on that tab for more than a minute, the first tab has to be reloaded when I switch back to it. Is there any way to increase the amount of time before a tab would need to be reloaded?

How can I prevent my images from being copied?

This is a perennial question, but the simple answer is that you can't. It's impossible.
Don't believe snake oil adverts for products that claim to prevent images from being copied. Once an image is displayed on a computer, there are numerous ways of copying it. "Solutions" that prevent users from right-clicking or pressing Print Screen can be disabled by turning off JavaScript in the browser; and screen grabbing software can easily make a copy of an image.
If you want to show your photography on the web, but don't want others to steal your images, consider the following options:
Add a watermark to your images.
Embed copyright information in the metadata of your images.
Save images at low resolution (72dpi is standard on the web, but useless for printing).
The following image uses all three techniques:
You can create a Photoshop action to watermark images. Use the File Info dialog box in Bridge CS4 to add copyright metadata to your images.

How can I protect DVDs I create in PE from being copied?

How can I protect DVDs I create in PE from being copied? I know that I can't prevent 100%, but would like to stop a majority. Can I apply MACROVISION to my DVDs?

>cycle redundancy failure
Optical discs are prone to read errors, particularly when finger prints, fluff, etc. get on the reading surface, so redundant information is added in such a way that minor errors can be corrected. If the disc is damaged sufficiently seriously, e.g. a deep scratch running around a track, the error correction system fails to correct the error, and you will be unable to read that file on a computer by normal means. Note that only the last .VOB file that was scratched would be unreadable.
I bought a cheap commercial DVD that had a serious pressing error, causing the movie to jump. Windows explorer failed to read the DVD but I did find a program (forgotten which) which made 10 attempts to read the faulty sector before carrying on. The copied movie then played perfectly (well there must have been a minor glitch where the error was, but I couldn't see it).

How can I prevent a PDF file from being copied, printed or downloaded? Students should only be able to view the text and and not distribute it in any way.

You can prevent it from being printed by applying a security policy to it
in Acrobat. The rest can't be prevented, unless you spend a LOT of money
on DRM protection.

How to stop an embedded PDF online from being copied and pasted?

I have an issue which I need assistance with please.
I can secure a PDF file using Adobe Acrobat XI and it disables it from being copied and pasted (right-click brings no such options) but, when I upload it online (to Wordpress) and link to it then it opens in Adobe Reader (or whatever PDF viewer the user has installed on their computer) and because of this they can highlight the text and right-click and then copy and paste it to a Word document and such, even though this was not possible in Adobe Acrobat XI but as soon as it goes online it is possible. How can this be prevented?
Basically I want to embed PDF's online for others to read and view directly online but I want to disable them from copying and pasting text - can this be done?
Many thanks.
Ian

If I allowed the secured PDF as a download instead (because it could not be embedded) and they tried to edit it with their PDF software I assume the encryption on it and restrictions (e.g. no copy and paste) would still be enforced?
Not a correct assumption. Some PDF software respects security and some doesn't. This has nothing to do with whether it is embedded or downloaded.
Many people face this issue, but it is best to just get used to the idea that what you put on the web can be saved, shared, emailed, copied and recirculated. That's how the web is. Even if copy/paste wasn't allowed, the user could just do a screen capture and paste that. If that weren't allowed they could photograph the screen. And for some of the older generation, it even occurs to them to retype what they want...!

How to lock apps from being copied/stolen

I haven't put much thought into this before but had a few other Techs. ask me about this.
Is there away to lock down applications from being copied.
For example, how to stop a user from simply dragging MS Office to a thumb drive then take home with them.
I know some apps put the SN# and such info in the library's but this is not hard to get around. A lot of apps are just drag drop apps.
Is there not a way?
Thanks,
Carter

Hi, Carter.
AFAIK, there's no way to prevent this. Even if you installed the applications on a Mac OS X 10.4 Server volume and used ACLs (Access Control Lists), there's no ACL permission that allows Read while prohibiting "copy." What can be read can be copied, so merely using Read permissions generally won't prevent copying.
You can read about ACLs in the PDF document Mac OS X Server 10.4 File Services (Manual).
This is why so many third-party applications are employing "activation" and "phone home" technologies to assure the license is both valid and running on the computer on which it was originally installed. As one can see from reviewing the information on software piracy published by the Business Software Alliance, these methods are still being circumvented, but they are getting better.
If piracy is an issue in your firm, it should vigorously enforce an anti-piracy "condition of employment," i.e. if someone is found to be stealing apps, they should be fired both immediately and publicly, the latter to set an example that the firm has zero tolerance for piracy.
Good luck!

Protecting your email from being copied

Does anyone know if there is a function for mac that can protect your emails frome being copied by another person.

+Outlook does not include these capabilities which is impossible.+
Don't be silly. Information rights management has been an integral part of MS' Office suite since the 2003 version. I might add that there are other programs that do the same thing, for other kinds of documents, for example Adobe Acrobat for pdf files. Unbelievably enough, even various well-known pieces of Apple software do the same thing for certain kinds of media files. You simply do not know what you are talking about.
This is straight from Outlook's Help:
"By using Permission on the toolbar, you can restrict permission on an e-mail message for specific recipients you want to read the message. As the message sender, you can remove restricted permission from a saved draft of a message by clicking Permission on the toolbar again. Recipients can open and read an e-mail message with restricted permission just as they would a message that doesn't have restricted permission. If recipients don't have Outlook 2003 or later installed on their computers, they can download the Rights Management Add-on for Internet Explorer or another program that supports content with restricted permission.
E-mail administrators can create permission policies to include on the Outlook Permission submenu (or Permission on the File menu). These permission policies define who can read messages and what actions recipients can take with those messages. For example, an e-mail administrator might define a policy called "Company Confidential" that specifies that a message using that policy can be opened only by people inside the company domain. When you compose a message, you can choose from up to 20 customized policies on the Permission submenu (depending on how many policies the e-mail administrator provides)."
+Regarding security, there is a night and day difference between Windows and OS X.+
More nonsense. See my above remark.

Generally speaking, as long as you are in the same processor family (4u, 4m, 4c, 4v etc) you can do so.
The caveat is that the OS has to support the particular model you are on. No worries with S10 though.

Hi, Mylenium,
Thanks for your prompt reply, I'm afraid it hasn't helped. I don't see anything wrong in my device manager.
I have also gone and updated every driver, especially the motherboard chipset and the Sata Intel Rapid Storage Technology driver.
Unfortunately, this hasn't made any difference.
Any other suggestions?
Many thanks in advance!

Can I not add images to my itunes from Google images or other search engines as when I click get artwork it does not always work

Can I not add images to my itunes from Google images or other search engines as when I click get artwork it does not always work. I used to be able to do this.

The sort fields should generally be empty unless you've putting in custom values to sort solo artists by their surnames. You can apply common changes to thousands of tracks at once, just don't apply the wrong change because there is no undo.
It is a good idea to backup before undertaking large scale changes. See this backup tip for a suggested approach.
