Disable Charms Bar when using track pad on laptop?

Is there a way to disable the Charms Bar from coming up AT ALL when making ANY type of motions, gestures, etc on a laptop track pad?
My sister has a laptop with windows 8 and some random gestures she'll make (they're very generic movements) brings up the Charms bar and interrupts her work, which is imperative that it DOES NOT.
I have tried software and creating registry keys. But that has only disabled Charms when moving to the right hand side of the screen.
Charms is the only issue. If I can disable it, she won't have to dish out $100 more for Windows 7.
Is there anyway to disable it permanently from being activated with the track pad? I know it can be accessed with the Windows key + another key.
But this Charms is very intrusive, disruptive and interruptive to her work.

Is there a way to disable the Charms Bar from coming up AT ALL when making ANY type of motions, gestures, etc on a laptop track pad?
Turn off all Touch screen emulation features to make the touchpad emulate only a mouse. Then the Charms bar can only appear when the mouse pointer is in either the top or bottom corner on the right. Alternatively get a real mouse and disable
the Touchpad completely, enabling it only when desiring to experiment with Touch screen emulation features.

HT3981 how can use track pad in windows using macbook

Hi everyone.
Can anyone guide me , How can we use track Pad click and right click in Macbook while running Windows 7.?
Kind regards,
Kabir

It appears you did not complete the installation and set up of Windows. Did you install the Boot Camp support software/drivers from your Snow Leopard installation disk? If you did you shouls have the Boot Camp Tools icon on your Windows. Access these tools and set up the track pad.

Disable print output when using bapi BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE

Hello,
I am using BAPI BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE to post material documents in our programs.
I wish to prevent the print output of the documents created by the BAPI.
Meaning - when the user post good movement using MIGO, there will be a printout of the movement, but if the movement is created using BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE, no output will be printed.
I have tried sending blank values in fields VER_GR_GI_SLIP & VER_GR_GI_SLIPX in GOODSMVT_HEADER structure, but to no avail.
Is there a way to disable printing ONLY when using the BAPI?
Thank you very much.

Hi,
We cant restrict the print preview or print out of the material document. Once the condition record has maintianed for the material document, it ll applicable for all the material doc . It would be manual Gr or BAPI GR.
In your case Print is coming automatically or user is taking the print !!

Dhanush.

Disable finger input when using stylus

Hi,
It would be really very useful for those of us with Galaxy Notes to have an option to disable finger input when using the device's stylus. It could be that finger input should still be usable for pinch/zoom etc., but not for drawing or erasing.
An on-screen toggle button for this would be ideal, as in the Galaxy S-Note app, but even an option in the app preferences would be excellent.
This would make a great mobile app even better.
Please add a comment if you would find this useful.
Thanks,
Mike

I think this is a good idea, with the proviso (as you mentioned), that you could still use the two finger pan/zoom (and three finger 100% zoom toggle).
Why don't you stick this in the ideas section? Then people can vote on it.

My fingers have a burning sensation while using track pad. Is there a reduce-friction coating that could have worn off?

I have recently been getting a burning sensation, as if my finger tips are rubbed raw, while using my track pad. I have been using my MacBook Pro for two years now. I am wondering if the track pads have a special coating on them to help reduce friction? If there is a friction reducing coating I think it could have worn off over the years of use. Maybe my fingers have more oils/sweat than most people, which would cause a coating to wear off faster. I stopped using it for some weeks hoping maybe my fingers were sore from something else. But that was not the case. The burning feeling to my finger tips starts within the first five minutes of using the track pad.
Please let me know if you know anything about Apple using a special coating on the track pad.
Thanks
Its a MacBook Pro 13-inch Mid 2010

I have no different issue. Recently I bought MacBook Pro with retina display ang iPhone 6 plus. I have a burning sensation while using mac track pad. it becomes intense shortly using track pad and I cannot work.
The problem is same while using my iphone 6 plus. If it is an allergy to mixing of some metal with aluminium(as some of you have mentioned) it should not be a problem with iphone, but i have the same burning issue with using phone as well.

Cannot type or use track pad when waking from sleep mode - frozen!

I've had this ongoing and random problem that occurs when I wake my PowerBook G4 Titanium from sleep. Basically, I can't type or use the track pad, the only thing that works is plugging a mouse into the USB port and clicking OK numerous times or Cancel (so it goes back to sleep, then wake it up again). Usually, about the 2nd or 3rd time of putting it back to sleep and waking it up again, the typing returns. I've also noticed that if I lift the keyboard and put it back down firmly it sometimes works, however, I have a feeling it has nothing to do with the keyboard, but more an internal issue.
Any ideas?? I'm lost...
Chris

I purchased a 17" PB in early March.
I had various issues such as the one as you have described. I decided to never let the machine sleep and shut it down when not using it. Completely different than the way I treated my 15" which never slept or froze.
I have also had the issue of the computer freezing basically when not really doing anything RAM intensive at all... This would happen about once an hour.
I read through endless posts here and did endless tests, etc. I replaced both RAM chips and had apparently solved the problem as I did not have a crash in over a week.
But, recently it has begun freezing about once a day.
I really don't have an answer for it. I have an upcoming out of town project that I need to take the PB on, freezing or not.
When I return though, my first stop is to take the machine to the Apple Store for observation / repair.
I'll let you know what they discover.

Can i use track pad and mouse when using two displays

I have a second display I wonder if I can use my mouse for the other display and my track pad for my macbook pro.
if not what will be the solution.
ps: my second display is a tv.

Although Apple has enabled multiple Finder and Dock display functionality as an option within Mission Control preferences, there is no means to assign pointing devices to different displays.
I have two Apple devices: Magic Trackpad and Mouse. One mouse pointer is allocated to both devices regardless which screen I am using. That's the way it is.

Disable charms bar completely

Is there a way to completely disable the Charms Bar. My problem is that I need to restrict the entry point to the computer settings to the Control Panel only, because we're using a third party application where the proxy settings are exposed through
PC Settings and I can't find a good way of locking them down. The proxy settings are dynamic so if I force them using a GPO the application stops working. Works on previous versions of Windows because I can just remove the "connections"
tab from the Internet Control Panel but Windows 8.1 has an additional entry point though PC Settings.
I could just remove access to PC Settings altogether, but that also removes access to Control Panel altogether and users need to be able to change some of the settings.
Also for desktop users I think the Charms Bar is just a distraction, now that they can right-click and shut down, log off etc.
Various people have put stuff up on the web about doing it in Windows 8 but they don't seem to work in Windows 8.1
I think it's bad design to not have a GPO that allows you to lock down PC Settings and Control Panel independently.

Or have a way of killing access to PC Settings without killing access to Control Panel too.
I don't understand what good that would do but you could probably do it with permissions. Use ProcMon to investigate that possibility.   E.g. evidently clicking on that button in the Settings charm requires access to
C:\WINDOWS\ImmersiveControlPanel\SystemSettings.exe
So, for a hack, try just inhibiting access to that based on user class. However, it looks as if that cannot be executed from Desktop, so maybe you just need to find out how to inhibit MUF mode more generally.
In fact, just before that program is launched this value is queried
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\SystemSettings.exe\MitigationOptions
(and a whole bunch more above that.)
Oh neat...

PPro CC crashes when using Track Select tool

This is probaby the most bizzare bug i have encountered so far - everythig works - i can scub, play and adjust footage, apply effects, titles and time remapping, but when i select Treack Select tool and click on the timeline, Premiere Pro crashes.
This is a new develpment as well - i was able to use PPro CC just fine since i installed it (trial version), until yesterday.
No new applications or updates for Windows, Nvidia card or Adobe were installed lately, but all drivers are up to date (according to various update managers)
Premiere CS6 works fine with the same sequence (mixed RED and DSLR footage)

thank you

Yep, buggy project..
New project with same and different footage works fine
Other project created in CC works fine
Imported sequence from CS6 works fine
Imported sequence from a buggy CC project into a new project causes crash on using Track Select tool
I was able to revert the project in question to CS6 via Final Cut Pro XML, also works fine (for now, at least), just have to redo some time remapping which didn't come through with XML translation, small loss
I guess i'll wait few more months before switching to PPro CC, maybe mysterious bugs will be worked out by then
Thank you for your replies!

Office for Mac 2011: Tips for speeding up Word when using tracked changes and comments?

I run a fresh installation of Office for Mac 2011 (v. 14.4.1) on a brand new Macbook Pro 13" Retina 2.4GHz with 16GB RAM running 10.9.2. The Office package is fully up-to-date.
I mainly use Word and find that it is extremely slow when I track changes. Documents need not be particularly large - even in a 30-page document after a few pages of tracks typing becomes a pain, in particular in comment bubbles where the text shows up letter-by-letter and only finish several seconds after I've stopped typing. Other programs run at the same time do not suffer from this horrible lag.
I have searched and seen that this is not uncommon so it appears that Microsoft's coders are not particularly well versed in coding for Mac.
My question is if other users have found ways to improve the situation, for instance by trashing plists or something like that? This is really driving me crazy
Many TIA
Philip

K3011w - How disable the touchpad when using USB mouse?

Is there a way to disable the touchpad on the docking keybd when using a USB mouse? It is a real pain typing along and be in the middle of sentence some where else on the page.

hi whippetguy,
Thanks for Posting,
   The touchpad on the dock uses a Windows driver and does not have any special Software to Disable it via shortcut,
How I found to go around on what you need is
With the tablet on the dock with no USB mouse yet
                  Press (Windows key+x) and choose device manager on the list
                        On Device Manager window open mice and pointing device and rightclick disable
This should disable the dock touchpad and Now you can plu in your USB mouse,
Before you unplu your USB mouse after use, Go to device manager again and Enable the device you disabled.
Hope this helps
Cheers!

Does anyone find that the new iPad Air sounds sort of "hollow" when using the pad?

Maybe I don't know what I am talking about, but I feel like when using the iPad Air, it seems a bit hollow when using the screen pad or basically just using it in general. My last iPad (the latest one before the Air) seemed like it was more quality. Does that make sense?

Yes it does have a slightly hollow sound when you tap the screen. This is because the screen is made a bit differently than the older ones...there's a gap between the layers in the screen, which causes the sound you're hearing...it's completely normal on the Air. I took my Air back tho! It's awesome but just a bit big for my taste. I'm hoping the Mini comes soon!
And I don't know why Kappy is saying the speakers can't do the low frequency so well. The speakers on the Air produce a way better sound than earlier gens..including low frequencies.
cheers

Two Finger Scrolling using track pad doesn't work.

You know how you can drag 2 fingers down the track pad to sroll down a page. Well, it doesn't work for me using Vista through Boot Camp. I tried the update, but it wouldn't install.
Is this as good as it gets?
Hypnoguy

Hypnoguy,
Sorry I haven't used boot camp for a long time my memory is a little fuzzy. Also note I used it with XP and not Vista, but don't use it at the moment anymore.
Here is a list of Supported Macs for 64-bit windows: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1846
As per your trackpad problems after the drives have been installed I would try to install the update again: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3336
Here are the boot camp updates and also may help with errors:
64 bit: http://support.apple.com/downloads/BootCamp_Update_2_1_for_Windows_Vista64
32 bit: http://support.apple.com/downloads/BootCamp_Update_2_1_for_Windows_Vista32
Also I would look in the boot camp system tray tool to see if there are settings related to your function keys.
Sorry I don't know of a function key that changes the startup volume, I only know of the select from the boot camp system tray (Windows)/Startup disk preference pane (Mac) or the hold option during startup. More on that here http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/11892.html
A good place to find a lot of Bootcamp support would be here: http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/
Hope that helps,
