Can i turn off sync for some files?

In dropbox and box you can decide which files to sync to the desktop. I have limited space on my computer to sync all the files that I want to keep in the cloud portion.

Hi there,
We recently enabled a part of this capability by enabling users to turn off syncing of selected shared folders from Creative Cloud and I've added some instructions on how to do this here:
How to: Choose which Creative Cloud shared folders you sync
We do not currently offer the ability to selectively sync your own files and folders unless they are shared folders but it's useful to hear that you would like this feature and we are working on how we might enable it.
I hope that helps.

Once I have synced my Google calendar to iCal, can I turn off syncing and save all info in iCal?

I have been using Google Calendar, and syncing info from it to my Mac, iPad and iPhone. Now that all the info I originally entered into Google Calendar is on my Apple devices, can I turn off syncing it and save all the events, birthdays, etc. that were put into iCal up to this point? I have only been adding to my iCal via the Mac, iPad or iPhone for several months now, so it seems silly to keep using Google Calendar.

Unless you have backed up your iCal data, there is no way to retrieve the now missing data. To easily back up your calendar data, simply choose the Back up Database… option under the File menu in iCal.
Microsoft cautions users that deletion of the Entourage calendar in iCal—without first disabling the synchronization function with Entourage—will result in exactly the outcome you see.
If you have not subsequently synchronized with .Mac since you deleted the iCal calendar, you can selectively restore calendar files as a collection of calendars from .Mac by using the Reset Sync Data… option in the .Mac preference pane by launching System Preferences, pressing the .Mac icon then the Advanced tab, and waiting for your client list to update. Once you've done that, press the Reset Sync Data… button, choose Calendars from the drop down menu and pick the option to replace the data on your Macintosh with data stored on the .Mac servers.

How can I turn off imessage for just one of my contacts? Me and my husband just upgraded (both had iphone 4), I got the iphone 5s and he got he note 3. All my text to him automatically send as a imessage. Ive tried to delete his contact and then went back in and reentered it but that doesnt work.

Have your husband text the word "stop" to 48369. This should take his number out of the iMessage system.
Go into your settings under messaging and make sure the box to send as an SMS if iMessage is unavailable is checked.
Hopefully this will get your messages sending/receiving to each other.

I play music from my iPhone via Bluetooth on the car radio. The phone also connects over the radio. Can I turn off Bluetooth for phone and leave it on for music?

I play music from my iPhone via Bluetooth on the car radio. The phone also connects over the radio. Can I turn off Bluetooth for phone and leave it on for music?

I haven't tried it yet, but I believe this would disconnect Bluetooth for both the phone and music. I have a 2013 Hyundai Sonata if this will help.

Can you turn off notification for emails

How can you turn off notification for email but leave it on for text?

Suds57 Thanks for posting, made me look a little deeper because I kept looking in general settings not specific app settings. Appreciate both of the responses to this!

Can't turn off shuffle for iTunes 11.1.5

Since iTunes upgraded, to 11.1.5, the I can't turn off shuffle. But, it only shuffles through some of my songs and artists so I hear them A LOT and other artists I don't hear at all. It's VERY annoying. The settings show that shuffle is off, but it still shuffles (still among a limited list). This appears to be a bug.

By Plays... That's interesting. I don't think I've listened to songs in that order before. Good idea. I just tried it on my Mac (latest version of Mavericks and iTunes), and it seems to work as expected, for the play order.
There is a recent new feature called Up Next. It is a song list that you can see by clicking on a symbol that looks like three lines with a dot to the left of each line; it is at the right side of the box that shows the song's info at the top of the iTunes window. It's a song list that you can add to, like a temp playlist, with songs you want to hear "next" in order (by dragging songs to the Up Next symbol). If you are just playing from a list, like your library list or playlist, the Up Next list should just show songs on the song list in order.
Does it show the expected song list order, or the oddly shuffled order? If it's the oddly shuffled list, click the button to Clear the list (at the top of the list). Then, restart playing from your song list by double clicking on a song. Does that make any difference for this problem?

Mail shows up in several different inboxes, including the one it was intended. How can I turn off notifications for these duplicate messages?

Turning off sync for an audiobook

In the new version of iTunes, how do I tell software not to sync a particular audiobook to my iphone after I have finished listening to it? I think I see how to turn the sync on, but not how to turn it off.

Oh, I see. It's pretty much the same as before. I clicked on the audiobooks button while I was logged onto iTunes, which lets you see what's in your library, but can't turn off the sync. I forgot you have to click the iphone button first, then go to your audiobook library. It's easy if you do the rigth way.
Thanks!

Can you turn off imessage for just one person?

my boyfriend went from a iphone 4 to a windows phone but kept the same number and it still sends him imessages when my imessage is on and its annoying to hae to click send as a text every time. how do i fix this? can i turn it off for his number?

I have one friend that I text a lot who has an iPhone and I want to be able to text her using text message instead of iMessage. Another one of my friends only has an iPod though, so I don't want to turn off iMessage. Is there a way I could turn off iMessage for just my one friend?
No.
They can turn off iMessage and they won't send/receive them

Can you turn off alerts for when your on a call

It drives me nuts when my cell beeps and vibrates while Im on a call...
can I turn off alerts/notification for when I am on the phone.

Maybe we shouldn't have to? It seems like a very simple setting to include that allows us to silence alerts while on a call. No other phone has ever blasted my text tone in my ear when I'm talking to someone. And there's no way to silence it once it starts, I had to listen to a 10 second text tone after telling the person to hold on today. Pretty stupid that this tiny feature was overlooked when they released the iphone 4, it was available on the 3. It's become so irritating that I'm considering returning my phone and going droid.

How can I turn off messages for certain Action Center items?

I'd like to find a way to turn off messages for Windows Update, Network Firewall and Windows Backup. Ideally I'd like to do it with Group Policy however I can't find a policy for this. We're deploying Windows 7 right now and we'll need a solution that's domain-wide.Orange County District Attorney

How to turn off syncing for 2 devices that share the same Apple ID?

Hello, I really need help, my dad and I share the same apple ID and when he updated his phone to iOS 7, my messages autimatically syncs to his phone. So now he can read my imessages, is there a way for me to turn this off? Note that my dad does not live with me and I have no physical access to his phone. Also my phone is the 4 and his is the 4s. Please let me know soon! thank you!

HI. Me and my dad share the same apple id. I just found it out recently since he bought a new apple device ios 8, and all his bookmarks in safari kept on appearing on my ipad and the customer guide books that he purchased for his ios 8 appeared on my ibooks. How can i stop syncing with him ? Also i want to know if the old books i have in my ibooks and photos in my photo stream have been synced to his new ipad also? I cant see his ipad since he's far away from me right now. I just turned off all options in my icloud setting, will this erase all the syncing between our devices? Please answer soon. Thank you so much.

How can I turn off sound for a single application?

So I'm playing iTunes while browsing the web. I come to a webpage with some really annoying Macromdia Flash content. Lots of noise. I'd like to turn the sound off for my browser (Firefox) without turning off iTunes. Similar problem occurs when I'm playing games ... I'd sometimes like to be able to play my own music instead of the game soundtrack. So I'd like to be able to tell the game to be silent without turning the sound of my Mac off completely.
On my Windows XP machine, whatever application currently has control of the sound is the only one that can make noise. On the Mac the sounds layer together. That's much better in the case of, for example, e-mail app signaling that new mail has arrived. But it is really annoying for the two cases I mentioned above.
Is there any way in the MacOSX operating system to control the volume for a particular application? Is there any other sound control software that folks know about that I should consider acquiring?

Kinda funny... I found this article while searching for an answer to my question:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93610
At the very end of the article, it mentions the "bug" that only one app on Windows can play direct sound at a time. That's exactly the "feature" I'm looking for on the Mac. Funny how one person's bug is another's feature.

Can I turn off iMessage for one contact?

My wife recently switched from the iPhone 4 to a Galaxy S3, and in order to be able to send her a text message, I have to turn off iMessage. Is there any way to turn it off for an individual contact instead of turning it off completely? Or can I tell my phone she no longer uses her Apple ID for imessage?

She should switch iMessage OFF on her iPhone, change her Apple ID password, delete her profile registeration.
