How can I limit the number of attempts to print a web page

Hi I'm trying to find a resolution for an issue on our network.
We run several kiosk machines that allow customers to print out documents and web pages. However we are finding that we waste a lot of ink due to user's frequently sending the same print task to the printers.
Just yesterday we had someone print out over 70 pages because they just keep clicking print.
I've tried looking for an add-on that would address this but was not able to find one.
My question is this, Is there an internal setting that can be changed in firefox to limit the number of print attempts to say once every 30 seconds, or even a way to make a dialogue box come on screen saying that the print request is currently processing and not allow more printing until the current task is completed.

Sorry, there is no setting within Firefox to prevent that from happening. Once the user sees the "native print dialog" box (what is seen when you do Ctrl + P to initiate printing), the operating system and the printer drivers take it from there.
I have seen something similar to that on kiosk / rental PC's in FedEx Office stores, that notify the user of the cost per page the user wants to send to a printer, and if the user should happen to click again to print the same pages again it asked if you want to spend another $x.xx to print a second copy. Wouldn't be too much different to just shut off the printing of multiple copies of the same document and notify the user of that action.
My advice is to discuss that with whoever set up those kiosks to being with.

Hi, how can I limit the number of emails I can see on my iPhone 5. Every time in delete one and older email gets added from my live.co.uk account (where I want to keep my 2500 emails) I just don't want many on my phone. Thanks

You can't. Why on earth would you attempt to manage 2500 emails with setting up a folder structure or some means of doing so? Simply keeping them in an single inbox is not realistic, no matter what email client you use.

How can I limit the number of emails retained on my ipad air?

How can I limit the number of emails that are retained on my iPad Air? Because of legal requirements of a long-term project, I cannot permanently delete emails relating to that project from my ISP's mail server. My gmail account contains over 17,000 emails and, upon setting up my new iPad, and updating to ios 7.1.1, I now have all 17,000+ emails taking up space. I would like to limit the emails by count as I was able to do on my old iPad running ios 5.1.1 OR to retain them based on date range. I have not found any instructions on the support discussions or general iPad blogs that allow me to do that. Any way around this problem?
I also miss the 5.1.1 mail search feature that allowed me to narrow the search by from/to/subject/all. Does anyone know if that feature is available using some little-known ios 7.1.1 feature?
Thanks for your help.

If you have a decent mail provider like Microsoft Hotmail or Outlook.com mail it does.
If you have Gmail it does not. Quite right. Gmail is rubbish.

HT2729 I have limited space on my new ipad. How can I limit the number of songs from my itunes on my imac from going to my ipad when I connect the two?

I have limited space on my new ipad. How can I limit the number of songs from my itunes on my imac from going to my ipad when I connect the two?

you can do this by keeping the external hard drive connected and doing the following
-hold shift key down on computer while opening iTunes and a prompt will appear to choose a library
-select choose library, iTunes should bring up your explorer windows where you can search for the external HD
-after you find the external HD find the iTunes folder you just copied to it
-after opening the iTunes folder look for the file that says iTunes library.itl or if you can't see that extenstion just look for a document looking thing in the iTunes folder that shows up as a database file
-double click the database file and boom iTunes should load your library without having to copy it to the computer
PS: do make sure that if you are going to do it this way, make sure that the external HD is connected at all times, because if you don't then you will get exclamation marks next to your iTunes songs
double PS: if you are unsure how to find out if the iTunes library file is a database file just right click it and choose properties and under the type it should say database file
hope this helps:)

How can I limit the number of rows returned by a select stat

Watch out. ROWNUM is run before ORDER BY so this would only
order the 25 selected

How can I limit the number of messages coming into my email accounts on the IOS7

I don't like the new IOS7 system most annoying is the excess battery useage and need to recharge the other is I can no longer limit the number of emails that are in my cell's email accounts old system let you choose the amount of messages.
already did the basic things to eliminate battery drainiage getting rid of open pages which was also annoying to figure out how to use as you can't simply click and hold then delete all open apps running in the back ground you must touch and slide them off the phone. I don't let apps do auto updates.
They need to do something about the battery and having to have all emails on the phone which likely is sucking up space.
Any suggestions?

I don't think it matters what you use as your email client. This is a feature that existed before and was missed in the upgrade to IOS 7. I read on another post that if you contact Apple support they just tell you to report it in Apple feedback. I just submitted feedback at http://www.apple.com/feedback/ I couldn't find an IOS section to post it to, so I just posted it in the iPhone section. Maybe if enough people do this, Apple will fix it.

How can I limit the number of ros in TextArea?

As I turn on the line wrap and having used setRows method,
I cannot limit the number of rows of the textarea into 2.
How can I limit it?
Thanks.

I give up. You don't know specify requirements and I'm not going to prompt you every 5 minutes for more information.
due to setText method So this implies that the text comes from somewhere, maybe a database, but the user does not type the text directly into the text area.
If you define the text area with 2 rows, then the third row will not be visible, so I don't see the problem. Just don't add the text area to a scroll pane and the user will never know the third row is there.[http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z55/nwoedf/temp/error.png ]
it demonstrates the problem with excess line
The third row is still visible even I have used setRow(2).

How can I edit the number of columns in a header in Pages?

I'm trying to set up headers in an APA style document and the middle field in the header is cutting off my copy. How can I make the header only two columns? Or is there a way to hide the middle one so it doesn't cut anything off?
Help please!!!

As far as I know, the three header columns in Pages v5+ are not changeable. If you had Pages installed prior to version 5, it was moved into /Applications/iWork, and is your best bet for Pages productivity.

How can I limit the number of rows in Oracle?

Hi All,
I am using very complex query where I join 6 table to fetch data from database.
I have requirement like fetching a first 10000 row and then fetching another records after 10000 and so on.
I just want to know how to fetch a limited number of rows using sql query. Moreover, I also want to know how to calculate the total number of row (alternative of count method because I don't want to query the database twice because its affect the performance).
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Sunny

Regards,
SunnyThis smells like a very fishy requirement based on a fundamental misunderstanding of how Oracle works. Could you explain why you want to arbitrarily limit the result set to 1000 rows? What will happen between that and getting the "next" 1000? What triggers getting the "next" 1000? and how do you define "next", since there is no ordering in a heap table.
I suspect we can make that requirement go away be presenting a better approach to the real issue.

How can I stop the swf file from repeating on different web pages

I have my entire website built and am using a flash
navigation bar that also has a movie presentation attached to it. I
uploaded it to every page in my site because it is required for
navigation. My problem is that the movie plays every time you
switch to a different page, I only want it to play once on the home
page, and then just have the flash navigation work on the rest of
them. I know that there is a way to use cookies to tell the
computers IP address that is viewing the site not to replay the
movie if it has already played within the specified time frame. But
I am not very good with actually inputting code into flash, I am
new to it. I have seen sample code on another website but I think
it was referring to the wrong flash version, and it did not specify
exactly where to put it in. Please help!

Well I am actually using a template. And the flash video that
was created is way beyond my ability. So I tried initially to
separate the two, the intro video, and the navigation. But they are
intertwined in a way that I do not understand. I do need to do the
variable thing. I took a flash class in school, and my book does
not touch anywhere close to this. I know its probably too
complicated to explain through a forum, but can you recommend any
resources online or books that would go more in depth with this
sort if thing. If I can just see the way it works on another site,
I know that I can do on mine.
Thank you!!!

How can I limit the number of simultaneous downloads on my Mac?

Hi Everyone,
I'm using an old Powerbook G4 runnnig 10.4.11.
Whenever I'm downloading a large number of files simultaneously, my OS insists on downloading them all at the same time. When I've got 50+ files coming in, it gets kind of messy and makes it hard to use the internet. Everything slows down.
It seems to me there should be a preference somewhere that will allow me to enter a number which would be the max number of files being actively downloaded. The rest of the files beyond this number would be in "queue" state, waiting their turn.
You know ... if I'm clicking on 50 files to download, I only want two or three of them downloading at one time. The rest can wait their turn.
Darned if I can find such a pref, though.
Does 10.4.11 have such a feature that will allow me to have only a small number of files actually downloading and the rest of them queued up?
-JOHN
ps. By the way, I'm using Firefox. I don't find any such pref in Firefox, either.

Thank you for the reply. I had no idea I had so much access to Firefox prefs.
It's still a strange design though. Yep, the original setting was set to 30 simultaneous downloads. I set it to four, which would see to make my Mac more usable as four downloads are rolling while all the rest are in queue.
Only probably is, Firefox doesn't just think of what is in the download list as a "download". Once all four downloads are rolling, no more webpages will open! (Strangely, sometimes they will, but very slowly ... but usually not at all.)
Apparently, even a browser tab is a "download" and is stopped once the assigned number of simultaneous downloads is reached.
So I'm still back to not being able to limit my downloads for the benefit of having good use of my browser while downloads are coming in.
Right now, one pages where I have boo-koo downloads I want to initiate at one time, I'm clicking "download", starting the download, going to the downloads list, pausing it, getting another download, pausing it, and so on until I have a complete queue ready to go. Then I start the downloads once I know that I no longer need the internet.
That seems sort of for the birds, doesn't it?
Does anyone have any suggestions? Other specialized download programs get the concept of an active queue and a paused queue with a number-setting to determine the max downloads. Why doesn't Firefox get this? Or does it and have I just still not found it?
