Disabling Mac OS X Dock badge notifications about additions to playlists I'm subscribed to?

I don't need to see the dock icon bounce and have a distracting red badge on Spotify just because someone added a song in one of the hundred playlists I'm subcribed to.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Update:
Go ahead and vote up this "idea" over here: http://community.spotify.com/t5/Spotify-Ideas/Add-an-option-to-disable-notifications/idi-p/156288
Apparently Spotify changes things only according to the amount of "Kudos" a certain idea receives.
 

This is indeed really annoying.
Shoving notifications into the user's face is never a good idea. Every single desktop application lets me turn them off, except spotify. Given the quality of the desktop application so far, this is a big flaw.

  • Mac app store not in notification center

    does anyone has this where the mac app store isn't in the notification center. I have checked and i see others getting notification banners and upadates in the notification center about software updates from the mac app store.
    mine is a mid 2010 macbook pro 15" i downloaded mountain lion a month ago.
    just curious and seeking some help
    Jon

    I thing this is a bug of Mac OS. Normally all apps sending notifications to the notification center should be listed under System Preferences -> Notifications. I wonder how apple forgot to put its own app under the list.
    Do not be confused. Disabling updates is different than getting notifications about the updates.
    I like to get updates for all my apps automatically but sinse I use my Macbook for work, I find it very disturbing to interupt what I do just to click "ok" to the notification because an app was updated. It is enough for me to know that all my apps are up to date.
    I hope to see this fixed soon.

  • Lion disables system info and software update in about this mac

    hey guys I have problem with lion when I reboot lion,
    it disables system info and software update in "about this mac"
    actually it says "this button is disabled because there is no system profiler application" or  "this button is disabled because there is no software update application"
    and also everytime when I reboot my computer it always changes default applicatons. for example
    it changes from VLC player to quicktime,  from Archive utility to textEdit and so on.
    each time i got to reinstall "Afloat application" if i want to use it.
    for making them ok I just need to open software updater from system pref. and the button becomes visible again.
    it is same with the system info. I gotto search system profiler via spotlight search and I run, button becomes visible again.
    for the archieve utility i got to go to coreservices and open Archieve utility then automatically it becomes default app for .zip files again.

    Did you just install Lion? If so, you might need to try to reinstall as something got messed up.
    Alfoat uses SIMBL which will break at just about every update. The reason you may have to keep installing Afloat is because the Resume feature of Lion is not compatible with SIMBL. See here: http://roaringapps.com/app:383
    SIMBL is a low-level system hack and may be causing your problems.

    See this article:

    Find the section that applies to your computer, and follow the instructions.
    Shut down the computer.
    Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
    On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
    Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer.

  • How do I stop the notification about whether I want to turn on my read receipt from constantly popping up after I click no?

    Even when I click no, the notification about I whether I want to allow others to see when I've read their messages keeps popping up, how do I stop it?

    Opening in the sidebar is the default for bookmarks that are created via a link or button on a website.
    You can check the properties of a bookmark via the right-click context menu in the sidebar (Ctrl+B; Command+B on Mac).
    In the Bookmarks Manager (Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks) you can click the More button in the Details pane at the bottom right.
    Make sure that "Load this bookmark in the sidebar" is not selected.

  • 'Display a notification about every script error' not working in IE11

    Hi all,
    I want to see script errors when script errors occur in pages (as a developer). In older versions of IE when you enable 'Display a notification about every script error' a yellow icon appeared at the bottom of IE and when you clicked it, you could see what
    was wrong in the scripting.
    In IE11 this no longer works. Is this a bug ?

    "This is actually by design. The scenario you are describing is better served by the F12 developer tools, and in IE11 we disabled this dialog entirely because of the performance overhead these old dialogs incurred and the fact that the F12 tools

  • Dot1x disable mac-address aging

    Hi, all!
    I have configured dot1x on 3560 switches on my network. Switches have been configured to send MAC notification traps. I have set mac address-table aging time to 1800 sec. but only 802.1x not enabled switch send trap periodically.  It seem dot1x technilogy disable mac-address aging process.
    Can anybody explain it.

    You can control mac-address learning for a VLAN by using this switchport command on a trunk.
    Router(config-if)# switchport port-security maximum 3 vlan 102
    Or simply use this to allow only a certain number of mac's per access port.
    Router(config-if)# switchport port-security maximum 1
    Here is the command reference.
    http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios122sr/cr/srir_r/ir_s4sr.htm#wp1015189
    PS: you cannot totally stop mac learning as the valid values are from 1-4097 so you cant set it to zero and i believe you dont want to as well , since you have a layer2/3 environment.

  • Constant notifications about unread Mail messages

    Hi everyone,
    Using Apple Mail on a 2010 iMac, OS X 10.9.5.
    I have been getting constantly repeating notifications about unread mails. Sometimes I receive an email which I want to deal with later, so after reading it I mark it as unread. The problem is that I then start getting notifications in the top right of my screen as if the message I just flagged as unread was a new incoming message. I wouldn't care if it just did it once, but it does it every minute or two! Needless to say this is a little annoying
    I'm not sure if this is a Mail problem, or a Mavericks problem. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks!

    I HAD a blackberry downloading my .mac email. It was marking them as opened for some reason - no way to change the seeting.

  • Remove the App Store update Badge notifications

    How can I remove the App Store update Badge notifications?

    you CAN delete them it has to do with metadata!!  google metadata  removal of notifications and there will be plenty of explanations, Also look it up on youtube, I just finished watching a video on it!!  there are always ways to remove things on any operating system, Just some are easier than others.  if you don't know or only have wrong info to give  then just keep your trap shut!!!! obviously there is a way to go around everything, Hackers have taught sony and the government all about this! (common sense)  so if you don't know move along!!  obviously I'm not advocating hacking, What I am advocating is people in chat rooms judging others or giving misleading info just to mess with others. You don't have anything more important to do than to  try and misguide an innocent until proven guilty user with a question?   Just because they don't want to update an app doesn't mean they are "doing something illegal:"  many apps with updates lose features and  actually makes an app that we use to enjoy very much, now not so great!!   you all know I'm right because anyone with a smartphone has been through this, Do i update or not?  we've all had that question. and as far as apple is concerned,  had everyone "updated" there software last year when they rolled out the new what i like to call SECURITY BREACH update  a lot more than the millions that were already exposed would be  ****** off too!!  Software update for the most part is a good thing, they fix bugs and allow our machines to run smoother, but don't for one moment think that the software updates are without flaws and certainly don't think they "the apps companies" have your best interest in mind!!

  • Clear badge notification from Settings App

    So I recetnly installed the iOS 6.0 update on my iPhone 4, problem is the badge notification (big red "1") is still showing up on my "Settings" app/icon. How do I clear it, because it is soooo annoying?!?!
    Thanks

    I am VERY cautious about software updates and have therefore not updated any of my devices. I might, and I stress, might update the 4S to get Do-not-disturb, but most likely only when .01 or .1 comes out. The iPad will most propably stay on 5.1.1 as there are no real benefits for it in iOS6 over iOS5 (for the functions I use). I believe that if something is working properbly, why rock the boat?
    As mentioned I gave the iPhone 4 to my parents. They are both in their 70's and only use it to make calls and send SMS messages. iOS6 will have no benefit for them and I'm not risking a 4 in perfect working order with a software upate that can cause WiFi issues, FaceTime issues and the usual battery drain. The 4 is working perfectly for them. No need to take the risk.
    Hope this helps.

  • Notification about new purchase made on other iOS device

    Hi,
    I would like to ask if there is an option to get notification about new purchases made on other iOS devices? Autodownload feature is cool but it's an "all or nothing" situation. I don't want to download every app to my iPad what I bought on my iPhone and vice versa.
    IF I remember well, when I set up my new iPhone and made a purchase on my iPad, iPhone asked me about turning on/off autodownload. But after that I have no notification. Or my memory is bad and it didn't happened.
    Thank You for your help!
    Janos
    P.S.: I know it is not the perfect community for my question but there is no community such as "App Store", "iOS App Store usage" as there is one for Mac App Store.

    Thanks for your answer! Yes, I tried that but that's not what I would like to use.
    If I turn on "Automatic Downloads" for Apps e.g. or Books, it'll download all the Apps I buy elsewhere.
    I would like to get only a notification like "You've downloaded XY app on an other device. Would You like to download it now?". Is there any option for this?

  • I want to use a video projector with powerpoint can I use my mac to drive it- and what about sound?

    I want to use a video projector with powerpoint can I use my mac to drive it- and what about sound?

    Hi Scott,
    You should be able to. If the projector has a speaker with acceptable sound, that's one option, otherwise powered speakers or a surround system.
    What connections does the projector have?
    Exactly which MBP do you have?

  • Hi, please help me , i get notification about a new update for my iPad when I do the instal for the new version it is asking me for a passcode but which passcode may I have to enter? Because when I enter my gmail passcode it is call me that my pass fail

    Hi, please help me , i get notification about a new update for my iPad when I do the instal for the new version it is asking me for a passcode but which passcode may I have to enter? Because when I enter my gmail passcode it is call me that my passcode is failed

    The passcode you need to enter is the passcode you set on your device. It is the passcode that you enter when you turn on your iPad or awaken it from sleep after and Auto lock.
    If you do not know or remember your password and did not store it somewhere then you will have to restore your device.

  • Can't disable FB, Twitter and LinkedIn from Notification Center

    Hi everyone, here is my "issue".
    I disabled Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn from notification center (their account are still enabled).

    Many thanks!

  • IPhone is 17 month old and shutting down when not connected to the mac any this I can do about it?

    iPhone is 17 month old and shutting down when not connected to the mac any this I can do about it?
    should I bring it to apple ?

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these steps in order until the issue is resolved.
    Replacing or even suggesting replacing hardware without doing basic troubleshooting first is not very smart.
    If basic troubleshooting does not resolve, take it to Apple for evaluation.  There is no obligation to pay for anything, the evaluation is free.
