How can I stop Front Rew kicking with ATV remote?

I have all new kit and trying to work out how to avoid the Frontrow or iTunes on my iMac reacting to the remote while directing the ATV2 device.
Does anyone know how I can do this?
I have tried shielding the signal which worked with the previous version ATV (1) and remote but not this time.
(I do not really need to use the remote for the iMac but would in future like to be able to switch on or off for use with iMac.)
Thanks for any help!

In the Security System Preferences you can disable the infrared remote on the iMac. Or, you can "pair" one remote with each device. Unfortunately, if you have only one remote you can only pair it with one device. The other device won't know it's been paired with something else.

    I think this is probably a sign that your network could be better than it is.
    Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
    You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
    Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
    There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first.

  • How can I stop an action sequence with another

    Hi,
    I am quite new to flash catalyst. I made a side with an office where you can click the phone to go to the status "phone". In there you should be able to call some virtuell people. I made buttons with names that trigger different action sequences with showing the name of the called person in the display and playing a sound file that sounds like a call. Now my problem is when I am clicking a different name while it is still in one action sequence, the other one shows up over the first and both sounds are playing at the same time.
    How is it possible to tell the action sequence to stop all others when it is started?
    Thank you for your help.

    Sorry, I'm a bit confused now. Just to clear this out:
    WDDOBEFOREACTION is for validating user inputs BEFORE Actions and HERE you can prevent actions from happening
    WDDOAFTERACTION is called JUST WHEN an action is happening for all visible Views (it's to prevent redundant code which would be equal for all event handlers)
    WDDOBEFORENAVIGATION is AFTER Actions and BEFORE navigation.
    Check the chart in the following Link (sorry it's german, english version seems not available, but the chart is in english nevertheless)
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw73/helpdata/de/49/b8c706c7c26d7ce10000000a421937/content.htm
    In my opinion put an if clause into WDDOBEFOREACTION, check whether the respective field is filled; and in case it is filled, execute your method; if not, don't.
    That's why I am confused, you kind of answer your question within your question itself )) or I still don't understand what you want to accomplish.
    best regards, hope this helps you (if not, try to explain it even more detailed for me ;-D)

  • How can I STOP mail from syncing with .mac????

    I don't have a .mac account, I will never have a .mac account, I have in mail prefs BOTH boxes under "synchronize with other computers using .mac" unchecked, and yet Mac Mail tries to tie up my entire system "synchronizing with .mac" all the time, especially when traffic is heavy (downloading or uploading). I've got activity viewer on and the stop sign is ghosted, there appears to be no way to stop Mail from doing this useless tie up time wasting process that manages to completely freeze up mail until it's completed and sometimes slow up other programs as well. I only have POP accounts, no IMAP accounts that have to be synced.
    This didn't start happening until I upgraded to 10.4.11. Prior to that Mail blazed through everything, and it NEVER tried to sync with .mac.
    Is there any way to turn this useless "feature" (for me) OFF?
    Thanks!

    I was on Tiger earlier, but just got home to a Leopard machine... and a power outage during the day seems to have blown my Tiger's Monitor, but look for...
    /Users/bd/Library/Application Support/SyncServices/Local/clientdata/com.apple.DotMacSync
    I'd try dragging the whole folder, if it exists...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Application Support/SyncServices
    to the Desktop & reboot, we can always move it back if need be.
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.DotMacSync.<ethernet MAC address>.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.DotMacSync.plist
    are both other good choices to drag to the desktop.
    We might even have to go in and Copy this to the Desktop then Trash the originl...

  • How can I stop my phone buzzing with alarms

    using a 58000 Xpress Music
    I synch with Outlook - great!
    I have a todo item and the phone now reminds me too - great!
    Unfortunately the alarm assumes I am there, all the time with my phone, and it's default time is 6 a.m so if the phone s in my bedroom like today, and  have a todo item I get woken up.
    Even if I turn off the alarm tone I get woken up as there appears to be no way to suppress the vibrating buzzer which will carry on trying to wake me u until I get up and press the screen or until the battery runs out (which it does quite quickly when the buzzer is continually making the phone vibrate).
    Every other calendar app I have seen reminds you politely once only unless asked to snooze, and has the ability t be totally silent and non-invasive
    Can I make my phone behave in a "normal" way?
    Thanks in advance
    John

    John,
    Have you figured out how to turn off the buzzing? Really irritable! My only solution is to delete all the calender events and go on the market for a Windows Mobile phone. ..funny you would think in these times that Nokia would like to keep customers by giving them want they want...Not asking alot really...

  • HT1338 how can i stop recurrent beach balling with iPhoto 11 on mac OSX 10.7.5

    Iphoto 11 keeps beach balling and often takes the whole computer with it. - Mac OSX 10.7.5. I have run the internal iphoto repair database/thumbnail/permissions utility without effect.

    Can anyone tell me if a mac mini with 2 GB of RAM and a 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor should be able to run Mac OSX 10.7.5 and iphoto 11? I am thinking I am just short of resources causing recurrent beachballing of iphoto and crashing of the whole computer. I have 133 GB of 320 GB free on the HD. Thanks for any advice.

  • How can I stop broadband phone ringing with landli...

    If you call the broadband number only the broadband phone rings - which is what I want.
    But when you call my landline number both the landline phone and the broadband phones ring. I want just the landline phone to ring when you call the landline number.
    In the settings section of the Hub Manager, for phone sockets it only has two options to choose from:
    - BT Broadband Talk only
    - BT Broadband Talk and landline
    I need one that says "landline only" but there isn't one!
    What do I need to do so only the landline rings when the landline number is dialled?
    Thanks

  • How can I stop Dreamweaver spoiling my code layout?

    For example, if I have:
    <div class="Something">
    <some other stuff>
    </div>
    Then if I save the file and close and reopen it again, I
    sometimes find
    Dreamweaver has changed it to:
    <div class="Something">
    <some other stuff></div>
    Which IMO is far less readable.
    Also, if I paste the following nicely formatted code from one
    document to
    another:
    <p class="whatever">
    Some text
    </p>
    <p class="whatever">
    Some text
    </p>
    Then if I paste it into another document and save,
    Dreamweaver sometimes
    changes it to:
    <p class="whatever">Some text</p>
    <p class="whatever">Some text</p>
    Which again, if there's a lot of text, I find far less
    readable.
    How can I stop it from interfering with my code in this way?
    I looked under
    Preferences, but couldn't see any obvious setting.
    Dave

    That's very helpful, thanks - but what does it mean by
    "Formatted but not
    indented" and "Not Formatted"? They both look identical in
    the preview
    window.
    The other problem is that I don't use consistent rules - or
    rather, I do,
    but my rules are far more complicated and context sensitive
    than the
    Dreamweaver ones. For instance, in general, I have two line
    breaks after a
    </p> tag, but not always - and in any case,
    Dreamweaver's rules don't
    appear to allow for two line breaks before or after any tag.

  • I keep getting kicked off of my wifi on my macbook pro.  It is the wifi in my house.  I get kicked off like every few minutes or so.  Why is this and how can I stop it?

    I keep getting kicked off of my wifi on my macbook pro.  It is the wifi in my house.  I get kicked off like every few minutes or so.  Why is this and how can I stop it?

    I think the other devices are fine.  I'm not sure.  It usually only happens like a couple days out of the week.  I do know that the network I'm using when I click on the wifi symbol at the top of my screen doesn't have a padlock on it.  It IS MY network that is at my house, but maybe that has something to do with it.

  • How can I stop Firefox from asking me over and over (even on pages with no flash content) to install Flash? I don't want Flash installed and this stupid pop-up.

    So even when I load up websites (like ones we here at my job have created) with very simple HTML and absolutely nothing Flash related, I still get a pop-up asking me to install flash (pops down from the URL bar at left.) How can I stop this without disabling all plug-in updates?
    Moreover, why in the name of all that's good is it asking me about Flash when I have no pages open with anything remotely Flash like on them?
    Thanks to anyone who can answer.

    I do not see why this should happen because of Firefox. Maybe you have some sort of adware on your system.
    Please attach a screenshot of the popup
    * [[How do I create a screenshot of my problem?]]
    Try Firefoxin safe mode to rule out your standard extensions. if that does not solve the problem then scan for malware with multiple and up-to-date tools.
    Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
    You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:

  • I do not want to upgrade to 7.0, I am attending online college and the upgraded version does not work with my school. How can I stop Firefox from upgrading? I have to keep uninstalling the upgrade and installing the old one.

    It's not a good idea to allow websites to redirect to another site until you know for sure the original site is trustworthy.
    But if you still want to do it (again not a good idea).
    Tools>Options>Advanced>General - In Accessibility, uncheck "warn me when web sites try to redirect..." option.

  • HT1766 Hi, I share an iTunes account with my wife. Sometimes she gets my iMessages and I don't and vice versa. Also if people face time me it goes to her phone. How can I stop this from happening?

    Hi, I share an iTunes account with my wife. Sometimes she gets my iMessages and I don't and vice versa. Also if people face time me it goes to her phone. How can I stop this from happening?

    You can share the same Apple ID in
    Settings > iTunes & App Store > Apple ID: here
    But for all other Apple services like:
    FaceTime, iMessage, iCloud, etc, one of you should use a different Apple ID.

  • I was trying to get the iOS 8.2 on my iPhone 5 but then it stopped and my phone is now on recovery mode I have pictures I need and they did not all fit on iCloud  how can I use the phone again with ALL my pictures and videos without restoring it?

    I was trying to get the iOS 8.2 on my iPhone 5 but then it stopped and my phone is now on recovery mode I have pictures I need and they did not all fit on iCloud  how can I use the phone again with ALL my pictures and videos without restoring it?

    Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
    Pictures taken with the device are designed to regularly be copied off the device to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
    If you have failed to use the device as designed it may be too late to recovery anything.
    Is the device regularly backed up to a computer via iTunes?  If so, the most recent backup (when restored to a replacement iOS device) should contain all contacts and pictures as of when the backup was created.

  • How can I stop multiple tabs from opening along with Mozilla Firefox Start Page at launching time.How can this be stopped?

    Whenever I launch Firefox, multiple tabs also start to open along with the Mozilla Firefox Start Page, which is very irritating. How can I stop this to happen each time I launch the browser?

    See these articles for some suggestions:
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Firefox+has+just+updated+tab+shows+each+time+you+start+Firefox
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page - Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' symbols
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
    It is also possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    Delete the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    * Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js
    If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.<br />
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note).

  • Better privecy does not work with windows vista home prem. what other program removes LSO'S AND HOW can I stop trackers?

    Question
    better privacy does not work with windows vista home prem. what other program removes LSO'S AND HOW can I stop trackers? edit
    Details

    As a temporary workaround, I believe this Adobe management page allows you to clear your "Flash cookies": [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager07.html Adobe - Flash Player : Settings Manager - Website Storage Settings panel] (hosted on macromedia.com -- Macromedia was the original developer of Flash).
    Regarding the script error, if I'm reading the script correctly, it is related to accessing your Flash cookies directory. It seems the publisher's support forum is not currently available for searching, but that might be a good next step.
    In the meantime, could you check whether the script has the correct location for your Flash cookies directory? If you can't access Tool > BetterPrivacy, you could check here:
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the filter box, type or paste '''bpr''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) There should be a bolded setting named '''extensions.bprivacy.DataDir''' which looks approximately like the following:
    C:\Users\''yourWindowsUsername''\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia
    Do you have a similar value? If you paste the path used by BetterPrivacy into a Windows Explorer window, does it open? Also, click a couple levels in the folder, can you see:
    Flash Player \ #SharedObjects
    If the value is wrong, right-click the wrong value and choose Reset. BetterPrivacy should update the value the next time you try to access it.
    If the value is blank, you could try inserting a sensible value and see whether that helps.
    Any luck?
