Disable hotkeys but keep navigation

I have an IdeaPas S300 and I really don't like/use the hot keys. The BIOS does allow for disabling this feature but then my Home/End/PgUp/PgDn also get disabled and are replaced by mostly useless Pause/Break/ScrLck/Insert keys.
Is there a way to disable the function (F1..F12) hot keys but keep the navigation?
Thanks
Itamar

Dear Customer

Thanks

  • Disable account but keep e-mail visible

    Hey guys & girls
    I'm using the latest Mail app for my emails and until now I've been using POP3 account. I have loads of e-mails and also sent items, which i need to keep.
    Just today however I did an IMAP account. From now on, i will use this one instead. However I need to jump back and worth to see e-mails i have recieved yesterday and so on. If I disable the account in prefs, it will remove it from the view. If I enable it, for some reasons, all the emails sent will be using this old account. I can not change this so it would use the new IMAP account.
    Just to make sure, I have the same e-mail address, just changed POP3 to IMAP.
    Is there a way ti disable the account (no more checkin mails and using it to send mails) but keep my inbox and sent items still visible?
    thanks!

    Is there a way ti disable the account (no more checkin mails and using it to send mails) but keep my inbox and sent items still visible?
    Yes, but it does involve some work.
    First, you need to move (not copy) the folder for that POP account to your Desktop. Then, in Mail's preferences, delete that POP account entirely. Now you can setup the account as IMAP (although I think you'll regret that in the long run) and let it retrieve whatever email is currently there.
    Next, you need to go to File->Import Mailboxes… and navigate to and select the folder that contains the POP mailbox for the messages you want to import; for example: /Desktop/[email protected]/INBOX.mbox/Messages and click Choose to proceed with the process.
    When that's done, you'll have an 'Imported' mailbox in Mail, after which you need to create your own new mailbox for those old messages from your Inbox and label it Old Inbox, or something to that effect. Then go to the Imported mailbox and Select All messages in there and drag them onto the icon for the new mailbox you just created for them; they should now all be moved into that mailbox.
    Now you can go back and import the other mailboxes (Sent, Drafts, Deleted, etc if you like) one-at-a-time, stopping after each one to create a new mailbox for them and moving the messages into them before proceeding with the next one.
    When you're done with that, you can delete the 'Imported' folder(s), then quit Mail and restart it to see if everything is still the way you want it to be. If so, then you can delete the POP account folder you moved to your Desktop previously.

  • How to disable Quicktime but keep iTunes usable

    Hi, thanks to anyone for looking at this...maybe you can help. I spend a lot of time on the US Patent and Trademark Office website, and to view patents filed online you need a special TIFF viewer, which I have. Quicktime, once installed, overrides it as the TIFF viewer which I hate because it gives no print options or sizing, save, zoom, etc. as my other TIFF viewer does.
    I've tried opening the Quicktime preferences menu and basically disabling all streaming or web options, and then disabled it from the Internet Explorer add-ons menu and enabling my other TIFF viewer, but as long as Quicktime is installed I cannot view the TIFF files except with Quicktime.
    Hope someone can help...I miss using iTunes! (won't work without QT).

    In QT settings have you tryed unchecking the TIFF preferences listed in File Types and in Browser Mime Settings? Also try right clicking on a TIFF that is on the computer, go to properties, where it shows Opens with: click on the change button and choose the media program that you want to handle the file.

  • Disable email but keep messenger

    I'm currently traveling outside of the US and I would like to turn off my email feature but still want to be able to use bb messenger.
    I can figure out how to turn off data services but than that turns of messenger too. since bb messenger is free around the world shouldn't we be able to keep it on when we travel but not incur expensive roaming fees with all data services turned on.
    thanks
    kristi

    hello,
    you can go on the BIs webpage of your carrier, and configure your account to not receive email.
    that way you can keep using the data on your device.
    beware, even if BBm is free around the world, data is not. And BBm relies on data. If you are staying for some time, I suggest you to look for a prepaid SIM card with a BlackBerry Data Plan in the country you are going to stay at.

  • Make T440s trackpad act like the older one? - disable touch but keep buttons?

    Is there a way to disable the "touch" portion of the new T440s trackpad - while keeping the "button" functionality?  I'm a big fan of the trackpoint plus the two discrete buttons (Like my old T420/430s had), and if there is some way to disable everything EXCEPT the "soft buttons" on the new T440s... then I can get very very close to the old behavior... any thoughts on whether this is possible?

    Yes, this is possible:
    - Disable the TrackPad in BIOS
    - Enable "Classical TrackPoint only Mode" in the driver

  • I want to disable parallax but keep the Animations on 7.0.3?

    I got the new iOS 7.0.3 and I want to disable parallax. On 7.0.2 I would enable reduce motion and it would turn of parallax. Now when I turn on reduce motion it turns off parallax AND the animations. How can I ONLY disable parallax and not the animations???

    That is very easy to do.Just go to settings>general>accessibility>reduce motion and turn that on  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5595

  • TS2709 I have AppleTV and Ipad2 running VJay app to my TV over a private cisco router disabled firewall but I keep loosing the video on my TV after a few minutes what can I do?

    I have AppleTV and Ipad2 running VJay app to my TV over a private cisco router disabled firewall but I keep loosing the video on my TV after a few minutes what can I do?

    I also get this problem on my iPad, so probably not related to the AppleTV. On the iPad I restarted Airport Extreme this time, and then the iPad saw my Home Sharing.
    So to recap, restarting the router or Airport Express allowed the iPad and AppleTV to see Home Sharing. Restarting AppleTV also allows AppleTV to see Home Sharing.
    So does anyone have any idea?
    Thanks

  • I have multiple devices that have my iCloud E-mail, I want to disable the E-Mail on some of the devices but keep it on others, I do not have physical access to the ones I want to disable but I do have access to the devices I want to keep receiving mc

    I have multiple devices that have my iCloud E-mail, I want to disable the E-Mail on some of the devices but keep it on others, I do not have physical access to the ones I want to disable but I do have access to the devices I want to keep receiving mail, can I do this with a simple password reset or will that still leave all devices enabled?

    The simple way would be to uncheck 'Mail' in System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud, but as you would need access to the devices in question to do that you will have to change your password, at http://appleid.apple.com. You will then need to sign out and back on all the devices you want to be able to receive mail, and it's important that you follow this procedure and note the warning:
    Firstly, if you have 'Find My iPhone/iPad/iMac' enabled on any of your devices, turn it off.
    Go to http://appleid.apple.com and click 'Manage your Apple ID'. Sign in with the current ID.
    Where it says 'Password & Security' and gives your current ID email address, click 'edit'.
    Enter your new password and click 'Save changes'.
    Now you will need to go to each of your devices and sign out in System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud - 'Sign out' on a Mac, 'Delete this account' on an iOS device (this will not delete the account from the server).
    Then sign back in with your new ID. Your iCloud data will disappear from your devices when you sign out, but reappear when you sign back in.
    I re-iterate: before you start, turn off 'Find My Mac' (or whatever) or you will need the services of Support.
    The devices on which you have not changed the password will throw up continual error messages as they attempt to contact iCloud and fail.

  • I have ios 7.1.2 and I still can't find a way to completely disable the parallax effect but keep animations

    I understand that reduce motion disables the parallax effect but it also disables the animations. When I turn perspective zoom off, it keeps the background from moving when I tilt my iPhone but the apps still movie. How do I make the background and the apps stay still but keep the animations? Is there even a way to do that?

    In technical support, sometimes you have to make educated guesses. I'm sorry that you were offended.
    iTunes does prompt when it is going to erase a device, and the message is clear.
    She said in her message that she was able to successfully sync the old ipad. This indicated to me that itunes wiping the data was not an issue, because either it had been setup at the apple store (in which case it doesn't actually wipe the ipad despite saying it will*) (*based on a single case I saw), or because the itunes media folder was migrated.
    Furthermore, my solution was to tell her how to backup her ipad (by either doing it manually, or as a last resort, by deleting the corrupt backup -- that she couldn't access anyway.)
    I got that last part of the instructions from the "Taking Control of your iphone" book which I found samples of when I did a google search for "corrupted backup itunes".
    She marked this as a solution, so it worked for her.

  • How do delete photos from iPhone but keep them on the cloud?

    Is it possible to delete photos from an iPhone but keep them on the cloud? If not what is the purpose of buying extra storage for icloud If you phone can only hold up to 128gb?
    finding it hard to get a straight answer on this, so maybe have to go to a local shop and find out.

    Refer to this Faq.
    How does iCloud Photo Library save space on my device?
    iCloud Photo Library can move the original high-resolution photos and videos to iCloud and
    replace them with lightweight, device-optimized versions on your iOS device. This helps you
    make the most of your device storage while giving you access to more photos than ever.
    You can turn on Optimize [device] Storage from Settings > iCloud > Photos or Settings >
    Photos & Camera > iCloud Photo Library on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. You will need
    an Internet connection to access an original photo or video that’s stored only in iCloud.
    Yes I want to know the answer too.
    If I subscribe to iCloud storage but my iPhone can just hold up to 16 gb.
    Why do I have to do it ? to make my iPad see photos from my iPhone?
    I did try to disable icloud photo while i had 1gb photos stored in my iPhone
    and wipe them out, yes ,nothing left, 0 data. but when I turn on iCloud Photo -
    again. everything come back as preview photos but when I look at each, my phone
    will download them all anyway. so, how can you manage space on devices actually?
    if I have 16 gb on my phone , So I can see all of my 1tb photos on iCloud ?
    and have enough space on the phone to do other things right?

  • Disabling Ultranav TouchPad keeping TrackPoint

    I have a Ultranav keyboard and I want to disable the Touchpad but keep the Trackpoint.  I'm using the latest driver (noted below), but it doesn't have an Ultranav tab in the Control Panel.  I've searched the net and can't find any real solution.  Has anyone tried physically disconnecting the Touchpad?  Is so, some tips on doing that without destroying the keyboard would be much appreciated.  Thanks.
