Don't know what it's called, but I want to turn it off.

Don't know why I have let myself suffer with this "feature" for so long. Don't know what it's called. Don't even know how to activate it if I wanted--which I don't.
Anyway, sometimes when using my trackpad and two fingers to move up and down a page, say when surfing, a semi-cirlce (I think its a semi-circle) appears on one side of the page or the other. Then, if I accidentally move my fingers too close to the side the page, it's like I've hit the back or forward arrow. I really want to turn this "feature" off. Anyone know how to do so.

@Barney-15E
Thanks much. Nope don't have any sort of gesture modification package. Incidentally, it is driving my wife crazy too--under Mt. Lion. FYI, the "feature" is very annoying especially in cases like now. That is, if I accidentally inovked it and went back a page, then, upon returning here, what I had typed to this point would be gone. When doing long posts, I have had to get used to copying what I have typed periodically to not lose everything if I accidentally invoke the "monster." Wife too. FWIW, we used different downloads of Mt. Lion to Install.
Incidentally, have you seen this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/message/21888143#21888143. I am surprised no one has replied. Seems like what I am asking about would be common knowledge at this point. But, I have not found anything particularly useful via googling. I have seen a few claims apparently supporting what I am interested in, but nothing overly concrete.
Thanks again.

How do I put shortcuts to web sites in a (?) tool bar/browser bar...don't know what it is called. With IE, I can just drag the tab for the site to the area I want.

Near the right-end of the address bar is a white star which can be difficult to see, but look closely. When you wish to bookmark a shortcut to the toolbar, double click the star. A window will open with the name of the webpage. Under that is the folder box which will probably read 'Unsorted Bookmarks'. Click the drop down arrow and change it to 'Bookmarks Toolbar' then click done.
I have several folders on my toolbar such as Music, Mail, etc. in which I add multiple websites. If you wish to add a folder, click the second drop down arrow next to 'Bookmark Toolbar' and click 'New Folder' and give it a name.
To add a bookmark to a folder, again double click the star, make sure you are in Bookmark Toolbar and click one of the two drop down arrows to find the name of the folder.
For other bookmarks use Bookmark Menu. Whatever is added here can be accessed by Bookmarks on the Menu Bar. If your Menu Bar with Bookmark, File, View, etc. is not visible, click the Alt key and they will become visible. To keep the Menu Bar, click View, Toolbars and check Menu Bar.

Not a good idea to post your email address on a Public Forum. I have asked the Hosts to remove it.

I don't know what to even call this type of problem

I have no idea what to even name what has happened to my MacBook Pro in the last two days, so I don't quite know where to begin to look for help.
As best I can describe it--a constant, VERY rapid opening of files--to the point that I thought the whole computer drive would fill up. These files were all of the same type--saying something about an alias being resolved.
I did whatever I could think of to stop the process.
Both instances involved attempts to use downloaded drawing-to-a-mac programs. Don't know yet if this was just a coincidence, or not.
In any event, if anyone knows what to term this type of event, I sure would appreciate learning even that; because then, if it reoccurs, I might be able to seek help more directly.
Thanks so much.

Thanks, OrangeMarlin. The second program was MacPaint. Sorry, but am not sure about the first one. I did delete both programs. And it may have even been WordPress, which I'm still quite new at using. (I was trying to make a WordPress customized header, by way of a kind of artsy program.) I've also been using Comic Life, but I don't believe that is the problem.
In all these years, I've never seen anything like this before.
Thanks for your attention.

I have never dropped my iPhone and when I try to take a video on my phone there is no sound and if I send it to someone they can't hear it either I don't know what the problem Is but will apple replace that? Or will it cost some money to fix it?

I have never dropped my iPhone before and when I take a video and or send it to a friend they can't hear it and either can I. I was wondering if apple would replace it by sending me a new iPhone or if it would cost money to fix?

Can't find songs, playlists, and don't know what this cloud is my music seems to be floating off to.

Ever since I got my new iPod, my music library is insane. I lost all my playlists to begin with. I can't see my full library unless I go to iTunes Store!!! I didn't pay for the cloud, yet all my songs in iTunes have a cloud next to them. My libraries are missing most of my songs, except, as I said, when I sign in to iTunes Store, then, as I said, still none of my previous playlists, are there. I have searched my Previous Libraries on my computer, and I can't find the very songs I was just working with the other day. This all started when I connected my Nano. I will not be using it again. Apparently it had something to do with this. Although I did upgrade to latest version of iTunes to use it, so maybe that's the problem. What's with this Cloud business? I didn't pay anything to get it, and yet it appears all my music is in it????? My biggest problem is that there is no Chat available, and when I go for help, they want a serial number. There's no serial number for iTunes. I am one step from leaving iTunes altogehter. But I have spent so much money here. HELP

I don't know what really the cause of my ipad. its just went off and I cannot user it now. someone knows what's them probl

What's the problem of my ipad?

Have you tried a reset to see if that will start the iPad?
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Most of my iPhone data is going into this section called "other", but I don't know what that means or how to fix it. Does anybody know?

On my G5 mac at work, I am getting - don't know what to call it - looks like extraneous matrix type code around prompt windows and in applications. Sometimes I will get large shapes of colors, yellows, magentas, cyans. Anyone else experience this?

I will attach a recent screen shot of a print window I opened and the extra code is above and below the window. There are matrix type blocks of code and then lines under the window. I get this all the time and it is getting worse.
Any help to get rid of it would be appreciated.
Thanks

I have to transfer volume licensing CS6 design and web premium (between 2 End Users) but I don't know what is the right module. I found some, in Adobe's website, but all different...
One module for transferor
One module for recipient
One module for both parts
I filled the forms, I signed them , I called the assistance for case number and they've sent me another module:
one module for both of parts, without field for to insert serial number...
What have I do? Which module must I use? I'm becoming histeric!
Thanks to all for help
