Can I stop the vibrating alarm clock?
I've just started using iCal again after a number of years. In past versions, I used to be able to control-click on the vibrating alarm clock when I got a pop-up reminder and tell it to stop vibrating. Now I can't seem to click on it. I like to leave the window open as a reminder, but that vibrating clock takes up a lot of CPU. Is this no longer possible to stop? Thanks!

Is there a way that iTunes can act as a Radio Alarm Clock?
I have found the radio station I enjoy listening to in the iTunes Radio List. Is there anyway iTunes (and my Mac) can be set to come-on from Sleep mode and start playing that Radio Station at specific times of the day?
Any App or plug-in that does that?
Many thanks
KevinTurning your Mac into a clock radio.
1. In iTunes create a playlist that contains just the radio station you want to wake up to.
2. Export the playlist (as .m3u works well). Get Info on your playlist file and look at the Open With entry to make sure it points to iTunes, VLC or some other app that will stream your station.
3. In iCal create an event entry at the time you want to wake up.
4. Right (or Control) click on your wakeup event and select Get Info.
5. For "alarm" select Open File.
6. Now under Open File there will be a place to add the file to open. It will probably be some default entry (like iCal). Click on it will allow you to select "other." Then use the file dialog to select your playlist file.
Your Mac will wake you up at the appointed time. You don't need to keep iCal running. If you want to put you Mac to sleep for the night then there is one more thing you need to do. Open System Preferences to Energy Saver and click on the Schedule button. Check Start up or wake and set the wake up time to slightly before your iCal alarm time.

How can I stop the sharing on the iPhones that are on my account because its sharing everything even text messages and its driving everybody crazy
An icloud account is designed to be used by one user to keep his/her devices in sync.
If you have muitiple family members or friends using the same account as yours, then have them get their own Apple IDs and icloud accounts.
If you mean you want to stop the sharing between all your devices, then on any one device, go to Settings>icloud and turn off the services you don't want that device to share/sync. Or turn off icloud altogether if that's what you want. -

When I record an audio track using Logic Pro X, there is a visible waveform which appears as I record. When I stop recording, the waveform disappears and becomes a straight line. It also disappears from the track edit window. But the sound is still there. How can I stop the waveform from disappearing? And can I do something to view it after it has disappeared? Anyone know the anser?
In Logic:
Preferences/Audio Set Recording Delay to 0 <zero>
This should always be set to zero unless a specific set of circumstances exist and you're audio drivers do not report position correctly.
On occasion, usually when importing a Logic 9 project, Logic-X randomly changes this to a negative/positive number. It's actually a bug in Logic, as it should always display the waveform. -

I am unable to download any files without multiple new tabs opening at the top of my screen. I am unable to identify what the tabs are for and can't stop the process without logging off Foxfire completely. FoxFire has also corrupted other files and made them impossible to download (saved files)
Could you check your PDF viewer preference and try changing it to a different viewer to see whether that helps? This article describes how to access that setting: [[How to disable the built-in PDF viewer and use another viewer]].
Unfortunately, the settings file that stores those application handling preferences sometimes contains crossed up settings or settings which Firefox cannot actually implement. In that case, you generally need to rename or remove that file and let Firefox rebuild it. The steps for that are in this article: [[Firefox repeatedly opens empty tabs or windows after you click on a link]] -- skip to the section "Reset actions for all content types". -

Whenever I try to upload photos into iPhoto, they load but when importing it just stops a picture or two into it and then just sits there. I can't stop the import so I have to shut off my camera when it is importing and start again. Does anyone know how to fix this?
As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Tru importing from your camera to it and to see if the same problem persists. Does it?

How can I stop the iWeb welcome movie from appearing every time iWeb starts up?
Oh yes and now that we are talking: when I plug in my ipod, I want iTunes to start, not iPhoto.
Who knows these tricks?iPhoto seems to be viewing the iPod as a camera. Therefore go to iPhoto's General preference pane and select No application in the Connecting camera opens: menu.

How can I stop the zoom in on some clips of old photos? I am using iMovie HD 6.0.3 I don't want to take it off of every picture.
Select the photo in your timeline you wish to change, then with Meda/Photo tab open, click the Show Photo Settings button.
In the new window that opens, uncheck Ken Burns Effect.
