How can I stop what I don't want?
Sorry, but you'll need to provide a more complete explanation as to what it is you wish to do before anyone can offer intelligent advice.

My MS outlook on the PC is sending two invites in the icloud calandar. How can I stop this? I ony want the email send with my email address not the apple email.
My phone is the 4. Not the 4s. And I went there but it's nowhere the option to delete from server.
I only see: ask before deleting and it's on. -
What is org.postfix.master and how can I stop it? Do I want to?
Hi All,
I have this going on in console every 10 seconds, endlessly:
18/07/2011 18:20:41 com.apple.launchd[1] (org.postfix.master[313]) Exited with exit code: 1

I don't know why but my instinct says this should not be happening.
Can someone please tell me:
1. do i need this? if so, what is it?
2. if not, how can i stop it?
Thanks!here you go:

I guess the gist of it is, somehow my user does not have permission to open some file. Strange since I own the thing...
Any ideas? -
Every time I open my desk top my Windows Excell automatically opens. How do I stop that? I just want my desktop to open.
Thanks, JamieLook in System Preferences - Users & Groups - Highlight your user Account - Login Items - and then if you see Excel in the list then select it and click the - symbol in the box to remove it. Log out of your account and login to test.

How can I stop what appears to be a virus in my e-mail sending out e-mails
Hi,
I keep getting undeliverable messages from my service provider. It seems I have some virus that keeps sending out some spam about winning money. It is going out to addresses I do not have in my address book or have ever dealt with. I'm not sure what to do or what software I can use to make these stop. Any help would be appreciated.My machine sends them immediately with a prefix in the Subject line saying <RE: hi > then the original email title.
And you have verified that they are indeed being sent by your computer based on an analysis of tcpdump logs or Wireshark logs running on another "believed clean"computer on the same LAN? I would strongly encourage you to submit excerpts of these logs to the likes of Intego, MacScan, etc., if so. You haven't downloaded any freeware from sites of unverifiable integrity, right? Is your DNS settings directing you to the DNS servers that you think they are (perhaps rerouting your sent mail to a rogue smtp server)? In Terminal, type scutil⏎ then type show State:/Network/Global/DNS⏎ and make sure you recognize the IP addresses of the reported DNS servers. (type exit⏎ to exit scutil)
Spammers in Africa can't send their results immediately. Looking at the long headers of a spam returned to me, it's got the same routing info as me and was sent at the same time.
Why not? I doubt that there is some guy sitting there manually doing this with email messages, it is automated, and would probably take milliseconds to duplicate your email, append the canned spam message, and shotgun it back out onto the internet. I live in Colorado and I picked a random server in New Zealand and pinged it (don't trust even pinging anything in some locales). The results?

Thunderbird keeps wanting to compact files How do I stop this,I don't want this
Thunderbird keeps wanting to compact files!
I do not want this as I deleate them after a couple of weeks or save them to a file on the computer
It keeps wanting to compact a dozen times a day !
once a day is ok but everytime I look at an email it wants to Compact
Don't like that
Thank you
BarryMy Question is
WHY would I lose my email, only if someone that thinks! I'm smart takes them,or writes a program to do that
1) any I want, I save into a file on my comp, not in the email program
2) when I deleate at least once a week I delete the deleted files
I donot use the deleted folder as storage
ON my previous email I had it to empty the deleted folder on closing the program, more sence
3) This is a dusy about 10 or more yrs ago ! I compacted my email because my disk space was low, guess what! IT used up the space I had and locked my computer that I had to format the drive!!
SO in my opinion compacting does not save disk space! ITS B S
4) I have read that your compactor slowes down the email program
SO why is it in my face all the time

An automatic update ran this morning. Noticed when I started up the computer, a message came up saying that Firefox was running, even tho' it wasn't. Update finished, and now I cannot get the search tool to work. Help!!!
Is this the search bar on the about:home page/
Try to reset some preferences to the default with the SearchReset extension:
*https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
If there is a problem with searching via the default about:home page then try to reset the search engine used on the about:home page.
Reset the <b>browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone</b> pref via the right-click context menu to the default on the <b>about:config</b> page and close and restart Firefox to restore the about:home page to its default.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
#Open the <b>about:config</b> page via the location bar
#Type in the Filter bar: mstone
#Right-click the browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone line and select: Reset
#Close and restart Firefox
If this didn't help then delete the delete the chromeappsstore.sqlite file in the Firefox Profile Folder and repeat the above.
You can also check for problems with preferences and try to rename or delete the prefs.js file and possible numbered prefs-##.js files and a possible user.js file to reset all prefs to the default values.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Resetting_preferences
Also check that you do not have a mozilla.cfg file in the Firefox program folder. -

I want to listen to itunes through my 5.1 amp thru apple tv but the sound stops when when my television is switched off how can I stop this?
All I want to be on is my PC and my amp connected thru ATV via optical linklWelcome to the Apple Community.
Yes there have been a number of reports posted about this, it seems different people experience different results here with some finding the same as you, some finding that it won't work at all with the TV turned off and some finding that if music is sent from iTunes on the mac/pc that as long as the TV is on when the stream starts, the TV can be turned off afterwards.
My assumption here is that it depends on the TV itself, although that probably doesn't help all that much. -
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

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:
* [http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/default.aspx Microsoft Safety Scanner]
* [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free/ MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware]
* [http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208283363 TDSSKiller - AntiRootkit Utility]
* [http://www.surfright.nl/en/hitmanpro/ Hitman Pro]
* [http://www.eset.com/us/online-scanner/ ESET Online Scanner]
[http://windows.microsoft.com/MSE Microsoft Security Essentials] is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.
Further information can be found in the [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]] article.

Every time I fire up my iMac a window pops up saying "Mount notification quit unexpectedly" and it gives me the option to either "Reopen" it or click OK, which gets rid of it. What is this please and how can i stop it?
Hopefully this will help you. Try placing your iPad in recovery mode again. You may have to try this a few times.

When I want to return to my home page after looking at a website I click on the home icon and it resets the page to my home page but also open a blak tab which i don't want.How can I stop this as I have too many tabs open and have to close all of them.
You may have an unwanted extension that is modifying sites (or the toolbar area). Try this:
Disable ALL nonessential or unrecognized extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable.
Usually a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
Does that flush the tab?
Please report back on anything suspicious you find so others can learn about its bad behavior. -
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. -
How can I stop iMovie from making thumbnails of clips from past projects when first opening the program to digitize new clips for a new project. It takes forever for it and is very annoying. I have looked in the preferences and couldn't figure out what would disable this problem.
You do not need to move your cursor much when pressing the mouse button to cause the tab to tear-off/tear-away into a new tab. No "sensitivity" setting that I am aware of. The tab in the new window can be dragged back to the original window.
To disable the feature, install this: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bug489729-disable-detach-and-t/
*Read the information on the above page
*Set options for the add-on: Add-ons > Extensions, click Options next to the specific Extension (the 2 options are defined/explained in the above page).

When I try to record a video on the Ipad Air, the screen automatically "zooms in" closer than when I'm taking a photo. So I frame the interview and record it. But when I export it to post it or edit it, I discover that only the screen was zoomed in, the camera wasn't, so I have all this extra stuff around the edges of my frame.
I don't need to zoom in, but I do need to be able to see what I'm shooting--otherwise, as I'm videotaping, I'm guessing at my picture's framing. But every time I switch from photo to video mode, the screen "zooms in." How can I see what I'm actually recording?
I've been searching for an answer for this for a while, but I can't find any responses to it! Thanks.Make sure that you allow pages to choose their colors and that you haven't enabled High Contrast in the Accessibility settings.
*Firefox > Preferences > Content : Fonts & Colors > Colors : [X] "Allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above"
