How do I disable Fast Fox

I get Fast Fox popups when I don't want them. Fast Fox over rides all my web searches. Fast Fox is not always accurate and takes be down paths of misinformation. I want to disable Fast Fox. If it is not possible to disable Fast fox I will uninstall Firefox altogether.

That is an extension installed in Firefox. Uninstall or disable it via the Addons Manager > Extensions tab.
In order to uninstall a possibly unwanted extension, please do the following:
#From the Firefox window click the Firefox button at the top left and select ''Add-ons'', or, if the Firefox button is not shown, click the ''Tools'' menu and click ''Add-ons''.
#Once the Add-on Manager has opened in a new tab, click the ''Extensions'' button on the left side of the window.
#You should now see a list of your installed extensions on the right side together with buttons on the right side of each extension.
#To remove an extension from Firefox, simply click the ''Remove'' button. You should see a message that informs you about the successful removal of the add-on.
#Note that some add-ons require a Firefox restart to be removed completely. To perform a Firefox restart after the add-on removal, click the ''Restart now'' link in the message.
You can find further information about uninstalling extensions in the following articles:
[[Disable or remove Add-ons]]
[[Remove a toolbar that has taken over your Firefox search or home page]]

How do I disable linked smart-object auto-update/refresh?

Working in the CC3D features, I am constantly making changes to my bump map. Every time I step-backwards, or make a significant change to the bump texture (smart object?), CC auto-saves the layer. This specific file is a very very large document (3 gigs in the bump texture layer alone), and the 3D layer has lots of lights and is very complex. This auto-refresh/update really bogs down the time that it would take me to make my changes. I have a very fast machine (I know it's fast, I dont need to list my specs), and I have all shadows disabled.
How do I disable linked smart-object auto-update/refresh?

If you do not like a feature like smart objects there is nothing forcing you to use it. Use some other features to do what you want. Please don't ask Adobe to introduce bug into smart object support.
You could work on your bump maps textures in external files. When your done some time in the future you could edit your project with the smart object layer and use replace smart object. Only then will all smart filters be applied to the smart layer with the replaced smart object.
Or if by CC Auto save Layer you referring to CC Generate feature you can disable that feature.
I have no idea what your referring to when you write "CC auto-saves the layer" being a feature. I know CC Generate will write layers out as web files but that more a Web feature then a 3d feature. Where do you see your layer being saved?

How can I disable the double-tap to zoom in function?

I play a game where I must click fast on a button, but tapping the button zooms in/out the screen all the time.
I also don't need to zoom in. Thus, how can I disable the tap to zoom function?

The double tap focuses on elements on the page and to zoom pinching in and out are the main features of zooming in Fennec. Currently there are no ways to disable this feature.

How can I disable window snapping/docking?

Ever since CS4 came out I feel like I've been less productive in Photoshop due to annoying window dock/snapping. Windows are constantly sticking and resizing themselves in ways that blocks the work I am trying to do. Also the main image itself automatically resizes to feet the work space and I find this also an annoyance. This is my main question: How can I disable "sticky" windows?
In fact if there a way to get the old classic skin back that would be great, also...because all the programs in CS4 are missing a handle bar at the top of the window, making it difficult to find a place to click to drag the window around...which also wastes time. Sometimes the classic skin is visible underneath buttons in graphic glitches..
Finally, is there a way to disable hardware acceleration completely? My processor is fast enough that it can complete tasks faster than the latency of accessing the GPU, so hardware acceleration actually slows things down. Also the hardware code has bugs in it that prevents me from opening massive images (eg, 21600 x 21600 image crashes).

Edit, preferences. Everything is there to play with

Disable Fast User Switching for RDP (NOT HIDE ENTRY POINTS!)

Windows 7 Pro.
I do virtually all my administration of 150 workstations (various domains and workgroups) remotely via RDP, and with Windows 7, I am finding more and more complications with Fast User Switching. Anything running under another user account may well
interfere with what I need to do: it may slow me down by consuming system resources, or it may, in fact, lock files that I need to remove or update.
When I log on remotely via RDP, I am notified that another user is logged on, but I have no option to log the other user off. If I then attempt to update a program that the other user has open, it may not update correctly because the other user has files
in use. I have been told I can use WMI to force another user logoff. I could probably run shutdown -i and force the user off (but, of course, that might log me off as well). However, this is not a good approach; when I run updates, I typically connect to anywhere
from five to 30 workstations simultaneously, and by the time I get logged onto all of them, I have no idea which had other users logged on and which did not. I would have to repeat on each of 30 workstations just to find out. I need a way to force-logoff the
other user during my logon process.
In the middle of running software installation, I may disconnect (NOT LOGOFF) from a workstation, take it to another site, then reconnect to the station to finish the installation. I may even just walk away from my computer for 15 minutes while updates are
running. If a non-administrative user attempts to logon, it asks me for permission, but allows the user to logon if I do not manually deny it. All non-administrators must be automatically denied logon when I am logged on.
It seems that disabling Fast User Switching would do this, but every time I have posted anywhere on the issue, I get another set of instructions on how to hide the entry points for Fast User Switching. That may work well for managing local logons
but fails miserably to protect my administrative environment.

Hi Brian,
Base on the KB article 279765
How To Use the Fast User Switching Feature in Windows XP, when not using Fast User Switching (FUS) and a non-administrator is logged on, a member of the Administrators
group can establish a remote desktop connection and has the ability to logon to the machine locally and gets a prompt to logoff previous logged on user. When an administrator is logged, any member of the Administrators group may establish a remote desktop
connection. If a non-administrator attempts to connect, you may receive the following error message:
“The user <Domain or Computer Name>\<username> is currently logged on to this computer. Only the current user or an administrator can
log on to this computer.”
In Windows 7, if the Fast User Switching is turned off, the Administrator cannot attempt to login locally. Administrator can do a Remote Desktop Session
to the Windows 7 machine and put his credentials. Once he attempts to login, he gets a prompt that looks like below.
“Once Administrator clicks on Yes, the User1’s session is disconnected.”
After logging in, Administrator can launch the Task Manager, click on “Users” tab and logoff User1. The prerequisite for the Administrator
to be able to do a Remote desktop session to the Windows 7 machine is to enable Remote Desktop services on the Windows7 machine.
In the interim, when the Administrator is logged in and has not attempted to logoff User1 yet, if User2 tries to login, the Administrator will get a
prompt that looks like below.
“If the Administrator clicks OK, User2 will be allowed to login and the Administrator’s session will be disconnected.”
This is a known issue.

Sabrina

How can I disable Chat in v8.0? Or, at the least, say I'm offline so that some bimbo won't be wanting to talk to me every time I start FF?

How can I disable Messenger Chat in v8.0? Or, at the least, say I'm offline so that some bimbo won't be wanting to talk to me every time I start Yahoo mail?
Sorry, I somehow mis-posted this under Mail Filters the first time.

I'm in Yahoo Mail v8.0. Options > Messenger Options offers four sub-menus: General, Appearance, Privacy, and Other. None of them offer an option to turn it off...which is ''exactly'' what I would love to be able to do!
If I choose Options > Mail Options, I can likewise find nothing under it to disable Messenger. Earlier I could simply choose Offline and not be bothered by it. These days, though, FF changes versions faster than I change underwear. If I'm just missing it in either option menu, I'll surely apologize.
Any other thoughts?

ADU disables fast user switching on XP

When ADU is installed on my laptop running XP with several user accounts it disables fast switching and I can only log on with one account. Removal of the ADU solves the problems. Is this a known bug or is it something my end. How do I work round it? If at all?
Rob

What you are seeing is a expected behavior. This is by design. Due to Microsoft limitation in the fast user switching, whenever Microsoft detects any 3rd party gina file, it automatically disables fast user switching.

How do you disable - hotsync manager window's fade out on close?

For the newer version of Palm Desktop and Hotsync Manager, how do you make the hotsync manager window stop fading out when closed or "done".
It stops me from being able to access ANYTHING until the fade is completed, and that is a complete waste of my time, also when I have much more important things going on (alarms/alerts) that can't be silenced during the fade.
And ... how do you disable the splash screen startup for the Palm Desktop, and how do you get the palm desktop to conform to standard windows start practices, so that when you open the program it comes up on the screen at the same windowed size I closed it at?
Thanks!!
Post relates to: Centro (Sprint)

Thank you ... however it was already set for "normal window". I deleted the icon and recreated and that seemed to fix it though, not sure why.
As for the splash ... its a waste of time ... the application loads faster than "they" would expect so all it does is extra advertizing for Access without having a purpose. And again, its not just a second or so, its 3 to 5 seconds depending on what else I'm doing.. and if I'm reading an email while double clicking the icon to have it start on my second monitor.. the spash covers my email till the program's running.
The worse delay is the fade. You already admit that it can vary depending on a number of things.. well that programmer may have thought it were very cool on a quad core intel @ 3 GHz .... try it on a 1 G p3, with an older video card. Or try it on an older laptop .... the delay is 6 to 10 seconds while it fades it self to the nethers, it certainly didn't "CLOSE" when I told it to.. it took its dear sweet time.
The programmer probably thought "hey this is really cool mahn.. watch it fade away..." by the third time of being into or out of the settings that re-triggers the closing fade, I was ready to kill that programmer. Make him suffer for the stupidity of his vision. Its one thing to make it "cool" and give people the option to live with that plain jane every day FASTER response... and quite the other to force people to relive your "cool" idea every f**king day, every time they go into settings, or need to see the log for what failed on backup.. etc.
Ever go upto a windows XP pc when someone says it seems slow and *de-select* the "FADE" option for their menus?? (Display Properties -> Appearance -> Effects -> deselect "use the following transition") I have ... and its amazing how perception changes because the menus are there NOW, not taking their time to pull off some grandious entrance ... the first time it may have been cool.. but by the 500 th time you've been into your start menu a year into the game.. that slow fade crap is working on your every nerve.
Poor impulse control would have had me killing the programmer that put that fade in there.. now I just want to put him in for an hour or two of waterboarding.
It was bad programming to force some idiots idea of a "cool" view on people, and the programmer should be shot down for it. It shouldn't be... and it wasn't there before, so some mornon actually went out of their way to put something in because the program just wasn't "cool" enough for them.. and then they decided to F the rest of us by making it so we couldn't DEselect that slice of programmers heaven.
It may sound like I'm blowing things out of proportion... but really, it was fine the way it was, now they've gone and F'd it up. Moves for the better get little publicity, you have to live with the knowledge no one is bitching, but when you screw something up ... you need to fix it and need to hear how badly your lack of vision made things for others.
and.. if they wont' fix it.. its coming off the pc.. I'll go back to the old "uncool" version.

How can I disable Firefox from automatically opening on system startup on my Mac - unchecking the "open at login" does not work?

We have Firefox 10.o on our Macbook Pro OS X 10.5.8. I prefer using Firefox as my browser but my husband prefers Safari for now because of a long history of bookmarks and saved information he doesn't have time to re-do. He is tired of Firefox automatically opening when we start up the laptop, and even when we uncheck the "open at login" it still opens at login every time. He is about to uninstall it because of this. How can we disable? It does NOT show up in our account on the Mac OS as an application that starts at login, so we can't disable it there.

For those of you running Windows, I found this on another site. (Unfortunately, not before getting totally disgusted and switching to chrome.)
1. click start (or the windows flag button at the bottom left) 2. in the "search programs and files" or the RUN dialog box, enter "msconfig.exe" or "msconfig". 3. That should open the system configuration program. 4. click the "Startup" tab at the top of the opened program. 5. Under the "startup item" column, look for Mozilla firefox. 6. uncheck that one. 7. Click OK or apply. 8. click "exit without restart". 9. you're good to go.

How can I disable iMessages from archiving messages and attachments?

I noticed while browsing ~/Library\Messages/ that iMessages has been archiving my messages (Archive folder) and saving attachments (in a separate Attachment folder). Under the settings for iMessages on OS X 10.8.2 Mountain Lion, I don't see any options to disable this. The only thing close to that is already unchecked: Save history when conversations are closed.
Any ideas why iMessages is saving all this information? How do I disable it? My concern is that it's going to keep accumulating data overtime. I don't want to keep having to go back in there and delete those two folders constantly.

Hi,
This somewhat date back to the way iChat's Saved Chats were once Stored.
At iChat 5 (in Snow Leopard) you could choose to see the last chat - (when opening an new chat with a person you had chatted with before) or parts of the Last Chat in terms of the Last so many IMs.
Example Pic of iChat 5's Prefs
Since then the management choices of the Save Chats has changed in both iChat 6 and Messages.
Messages stores Chats two ways if they are iMessages.
You can elect to Save them in Messages > Preferences > Messages.
It also store the chat.db and other databases items which includes the Attachment items
The chat.db is the bit that fill in the "history" if you iMessage the same person even if you are not saving the Chat in a formal sense in the App's Preferences.
This is irrespective if your delete the Conversation from the Messages main window.
How big these Databases get obviously depends on your iMessages usage.
Striker's link seems to be about a similar issue on an iPhone (I presume it transfers to other iOS devices) but I am not sure that it is relevant in this situation.
Edit.
I should have been clear that you cannot change the database behaviour.

How can i disable imessage from automatically starting up when i turn on macbook air?

how can i disable imessage from automatically starting up when i turn on macbook air? i dont know my imessages to pop up on my laptop when it turns on. But i dont want to disable imessage totally on my macbook.

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
First of all, check that Messages is closed when you turn off your MacBook. This is so important because, by default, OS X will reopen all opened apps the next time you start your Mac.
Apart from that, when you go to  > Shut Down, or  > Restart, in the window you see to restart or turn off your MacBook, unmark "Reopen windows when logging back in". This will avoid that your Mac opens all opened apps the next time you start the MacBook, so Messages won't start automatically at startup
