Disable the Eject button

I'm a teacher with 27 eMac's and I'd like to know if there is an application or another way to disable my students from opening - closing - opening - closing the cd tray everyday. They have no need for it, as I use only flash drives.
Thanks for the help.

A thought (not tested) - can you use the keyboard shortcuts control panel to assign the eject button to some other action? Would that override the default behaviour?

HOW DO I FIND THE EJECT BUTTON ON MACBOOK PRO WITH RETINA

It's not a matter of failure, it's the idea of training people to associate the Trash with unmounting a volume. The Trash is a mechanism for the permanent deletion of your data, and designed to appear as such. Apple haters used to laugh at this..."Eject by dragging to the Trash? And you say the Mac is intuitive? Ha ha ha..." And they were right. It's better to teach ways that actually make more sense.
The great thing about all the newer ways is that they are easily discoverable, you don't have to remember or figure out that you have to virtually trash your disk. A new user would naturally expect to find an Eject command or button, and there they are in plain sight.

I always find a ton of mounted installers left behind by users who install stuff on their systems. I don't understand why Apple cannot make an automated process to unmount the installer once it's done. Just seems stupid to me I guess. I've seen that mounted installer confuse people into clicking on it each and every time they want to start the app because they don't understand that once it's installed, that installer should be ejected because they're done with it.
I agree about the installer volume behavior...and Apple made it worse in Mountain Lion by putting the volumes on the bottom of the Finder sidebar, which is often out of view. Incidentally, drag-to-trash does not seem to work with volumes in the sidebar, but the other Eject methods do.
The "installer problem" is another reason I love the other methods much more than dragging to the trash. To eject multiple volumes by selecting them and pressing Command-E is much faster than the time taken to gather them up with the mouse and drag all of them to a specific spatial target.

How can I disable the previous button in the first page and the next button in the last page?

Hi all,
I have created a new skin for a webhelp by modifying the layout and the buttons. However, I am not able to find a way where in we can
disable the previous button ini the first page of the webhelp and hte the next page in the last page of the webhelp. If both the next and previous button is visibile in the first and last page, it is sort of misguiding the user.
I am using Robohelp 9.
Please advice.
Thanks,
Parag

I think you are mixing Previous and Next in a browse sequence and the Previous and Next that you get in the browser itself.
In a browse sequence, they are automatically disabled at the start and finish. When in the first topic in the sequence only Next will be enabled, when in the last topic only previous will be enabled.
Previous and Next in the browser are working on the topics your user has viewed which is not the same thing.

Is there a Way to lock apps or disable the home button?

I often allow my 16 month old to play toddler games on my iPhone. He knows how to slide his finger to unlock the phone and he loves pressing and holding the home button to activate Siri so he can talk to her! LOL! I am worried that he will accidently delete or move an app to another screen by accident so is there a way to prevent that from happening. Also while he plays his games, he likes to press the home button which closes him out of his game. Is there a way to disable the home button so he can just stay within his toddler games?

You can use Guide Access to restrict your child to using a single app. See:

How to disable the Tools Button in Bex Analyzer

Hi Guys,
How do I disable the Tools button only in Bex Analyzer so as to avoid the users messing with Query Designer.
Thanks,
Recca

Recca,
Can you do this via authoirsations instead? ie. Allow two types of users, Designers who have access and Users who don't.
User will be able to access the Query Desinger but have no access to create or save. That should suffice.
If you start tweaking with the toolbar it may have wider negative implications.

How to disable the Save button For a pdf?

Hi,
I have a requirement that when you open the livecycle developed pdf, the Save option available in the toolbar (Save As icon) and File menu of the Reader should be disabled. A button will be provided in the form separately to provide the Save functionality. Can anybody help me reg. this? Is there any setting available for this in Adobe Pro or any other tool?
Regards,
Maria

It's not really difficult to disable the save button. But it depends on the context from where you want to delete it. even if you disable the save button the user has the option to print screen and create a fresh pdf. So your question has some philosophical aspects to deal with. Please mail me at [email protected] incase of further quries. I've understood your problem and have got a solution but it's not somewhat legitimate to do. I can share it with you through email.

How to disable the cancel button in the ProgressMonitor

hi,
I need to know, is there any way to disable/remove the (cancel)button in the ProgressMonitor?
One more problem is,
Once i click the cancel button, isCanceled() return true, how to make it false again so that the process continue....
It is very urgently.....
please help me out.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Deepa Raghuraman

I don't think that's a good solution, because Cancel button itself is not disabled, so user is tempted to click it and nothing happens.
A better but dangerous solution is this:
progressMonitor = new ProgressMonitor(ProgressMonitorDemo.this,
"Running a Long Task",
"", 0, 100);
progressMonitor.setMillisToDecideToPopup(0);
progressMonitor.setMillisToPopup(0);
progressMonitor.setProgress(0);
JDialog dialog = (JDialog)progressMonitor.getAccessibleContext().getAccessibleParent();
JOptionPane pane = (JOptionPane)dialog.getContentPane().getComponent(0);
pane.setOptions(new Object[]{});Refer to the same question here [http://stackoverflow.com/questions/512151/how-do-i-disable-the-cancel-button-when-using-javax-swing-progressmonitor] .

Disabling the Open button in the JFileChooser dialog

Hi,
I would like to enable/disable the Open button in the JFileChooser dialog, after the dialog is shown.
I looked at the Java APIs but I could not find a method that gives me the access to this button.
Could anyone let me know how to either retrieve the Open button from the JFileChooser or enable/disable it through Java APIs?
Thanks in advance,

As I'm editing with multiclips in my sequence, if I select "open" from the middle pulldown menu in the canvas or viewer, it will open the multiclip in the viewer and play it in sync with my timeline playhead (like the gang feature). I.E. so I can hit play in my timeline, watch the multiclip in the viewer real time, and make edits (to the clip in the timeline) as I watch. My issue is that the syncing of the viewer playhead and the timeline playhead often break when deleting clips and I constantly have to reselect the "open" button, and it would be way nicer if there was a shortcut key instead of having to mouse it. It only takes a second to use your mouse and select "open" but when you have to do it constantly, it makes you wish for a quick key.

Disable the 'CHANGE' button in CRMD_ORDER

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement, where I need to disable the change button in CRMD_ORDER transaction for only few orders...
am not sure about the disabling the change button, so I tried to disable the fields for input.
I tried to use the function module 'CRM_INTLAY_SET_PROCESS_TYPE' and also other BADIs like CRM_ORDER_AUTH_CHECK, CRM_BTX_EXTENSIONS...but not able to disable the fields completely.
The Conditions tab at the item level is still in change mode...
Appreciate your help on this..
Thanks
Padma.

Hi Padma,
If you plan to use your idea with CRM_ORDER_AUTH_CHECK, you must also set the CRM_PRIDOC_COMM_BADI for the item condition tab. Set the CS_COMADM_I_COM-KAEND_TYP as 'X' in this BAdI.
And implement note1148666 too, if your version is fit.
Regards,
Masayuki
