How can I stop the auto-saving of Pages version 4.1?

Why not just open your eyes !
Under 10.6.8, we had two menu items :
Save and Save As…
Now we have a single Save…
Since the first delivery of the macintosh,
a menu item whose name ends with ellipsis is one which always open a dialog.
Under 10.6.8 and older the Save button was used to save and already saved document without opening a dialog.
If the document was never saved, it behaved as the Save As… one.
With Lion the Save feature : save an already saved once document is no longer required as the system autosaved everything.
There was no reason to keep this aspect of the Save item.
Remaining tasks are those which were dedicated to the Save As… button.
The engineers choose to drop one op the now duplicating items.
The synthesis is the Save… item which clearly state what it is supposed to achieve.
Triggering it, we may :
change the name used to save
change the destination folder
export as .doc
export as Pages '08
Of course there is always the black triangle allowing us to use the stripped dialog or the full one.

How can I stop the auto play feature automatically playing/streaming the next podcast?

Hi there.
I listened to podcast there were two things I found that helped me out. Both we're in the podcast app itself.
Firstly change the default sorting order. When looking at the list off episodes a available on your ios device tap on the description part at the top, this will bring up the settings for that podcast (subscribe mark as played etc) scroll to the Bottom and select oldest first. This will mean that if you are listening to the latest download it will stop at the end as there will be no more to play.
Secondly, and useful if listening to older podcasts in the list, you can use the timer to stop once the current episode has ended. To do this when you are in the podcast playback screen slide the "album artwork" up, revealing the playback options and nifty tape playing animation this is where you adjust playback speed and set a timer. The timer has a number of options to set playback to stop after set amount of time. However one of these options is to stop once the current episode you are listening to ends. This can also be current chapter if the podcast you are listening to supports chapters.
Hope this helps, if not clear let me know

Can I stop the continuous saving of Pages document?

Can I stop the continuous saving of Pages (iwork) document? I am currently working on a large Pages document - a school handbook that is topping 500mb due to the photographs. On a Macbook Pro I7 with SSD drive the continuous saving of the document when I do the slightest change is driving me to distraction - I have no idea what it would be like with non-SSD! It takes around 30 seconds each time I move a single photograph. Can I stop this versioning that Pages does?
Thanks

Your problem is not linked to versioning but to AutoSave.
Autosave try to save every change when we leave the app "unoccupied" for a short time and, if we don't, it force save on a regular basis. It's this feature which is at work in what you describe.
By default, Versions apply once an hour or when you force it pressing cmd + s so it's not it which is at work.
My own tip when I want to edit a large file is to rename it from azerty.pages into azerty.template.
This way, when I start a session upon this doc, I don't work on a document which was already saved once, I work on one which was never saved so, Autosave doesn't apply.
CAUTION: this feature is killed after the first save process.
Happily, there is an answer :
Use my script Save_As (thanks to FastScripts I gave it the shortcut cmd+shift+s) or use it encapsulated in a Service by Peggy.
This script trigger File > Duplicate
then File > Save…
This way it allow us to keep consecutive files storing the contents of our work in progress but the document upon which we work remains unsaved so free of AutoSave feature.
We retrieve what we were doing under 10.6.8.
To be able to work a more comfortable way, we will have to wait the delivery of the next upgrade which, I guess, will be iCloud aware which require deep changes in the app design so that it will be able to save the documents by small blocks as was explained during the late WWDC seminars.
Now, I will give a less technical advice :
I'm quite sure that on the long run, it would be better to replace your larges picture files by smaller ones fitting the true requirements. Inserting files with a rez greater than 300 dpis in the printed size is counterproductive. As you see, I add my vote to fruhulda's one. She was also perfectly right when she urged you to crop your pictures out of Pages. This one doesn't crop the pictures, it put a mask hiding what you wan't to drop.
It's fine to build quickly a draft of a document but for the final work, it's better to prepare the pictures with a dedicated application.

How can I stop the Mozilla Firefox Start Page from taking over my computer. I have reset the home page a half dozen times.

For the past month, every time I open Firefox, the Mozilla Start Page (with Google in the middle) takes over my home page setting (NY Times). How can I stop this from happening?

To the extent that I could, I tried the above, despite the lack of clarity at times. For example, how do the uninitiated find "sessionstore.js" and "sessionstore.bak" and the Firefox profile folder? Assuming that I eventually find them, what in the world does "check for problems" mean?
There are many of us out here with limited to moderate computer sophistication, and more detailed suggestions would be much appreciated. I am in the moderate to high category, but much of your response was marginally useful, to be kind. Not to say that I don't appreciate what you have written.

How can I stop the "Welcome to Firefox" page appearing before my default page everytime I access Firefox

Every time I access Firefox (my preferred browser) the "Welcome to Firefox" page pops up rather than my default page (Google). This started when I upgraded to the latest Firefox. I have had a good look but can see no way to prevent this. I have locked in my default page but Firefox seems to over ride this. I like to have control over my computer rather than dealing with pop up pages determined by others. Can you assist please?

I had this problem by updating to the new version through the help/about Firefox update feature. The '''ONLY''' way I found to resolve this was to totally uninstall the previous version of Firefox including all cookies and traces of Firefox. I backed up my cookies and bookmarks first of course... then, uninstalled and reinstalled the new 9.0 version with a fresh downloaded version of the new Firefox and the problem was '''ABSOLUTELY RESOLVED'''. The other methods of going to tools / options and setting the home page etc. just didn't work at all. THIS WORKED!

How can I stop the intro voice when I play a genius mix

HOw can I stop the intro voice when I play a genius mix?

Hi Diavonex. Yes I was aware of this option.
Subsequently I have done a litle research and downloaded a music app called "Track 8" which has a much clearer interface (larger type) and the abillity to change the background colour to dark or light.
This is much more readable in the car in bright light, and much better at night too.
You can also turn off auto-lock within the application, which is great, as it doesn't affect other apps.
Although this app is really only an interface sitting on top of the music app, it offers a much better experience
in my opinion that the stock player which seems to have devolved rather than evolved.

How can I stop the sharing on the iPhones that are in the same account because its sharing every thing even text messages

How can I stop the sharing on the iPhones that are on my account because its sharing everything even text messages and its driving everybody crazy

An icloud account is designed to be used by one user to keep his/her devices in sync.
If you have muitiple family members or friends using the same account as yours, then have them get their own Apple IDs and icloud accounts.
If you mean you want to stop the sharing between all your devices, then on any one device, go to Settings>icloud and turn off the services you don't want that device to share/sync. Or turn off icloud altogether if that's what you want.

When I record an audio track, there is a waveform. When I stop recording, the waveform disappears and becomes a straight line. It also disappears from the track edit window. But the sound is there. How can I stop the waveform from disappearing?

When I record an audio track using Logic Pro X, there is a visible waveform which appears as I record. When I stop recording, the waveform disappears and becomes a straight line. It also disappears from the track edit window. But the sound is still there. How can I stop the waveform from disappearing? And can I do something to view it after it has disappeared? Anyone know the anser?

In Logic:
Preferences/Audio Set Recording Delay to 0 <zero>
This should always be set to zero unless a specific set of circumstances exist and you're audio drivers do not report position correctly.
On occasion, usually when importing a Logic 9 project, Logic-X randomly changes this to a negative/positive number. It's actually a bug in Logic, as it should always display the waveform.

In your Optimize settings if you set it to "Make Compatible with Acrobat 5.0 or Later" it will bring it down to PDF 1.4
