How do I get rid of annoying voice telling me my every move?

How Do I shut off the voice telling me every move I make, especially When I am editing?

If it's a computer voice telling you what to do then it's a lot easier than Ian's suggestion.
System Preferences>Universal Access>Seeing Tab, turn OFF Voice Over.

  • How do I get rid of annoying arcade game on new firefox start page?

    Most recent update of Firefox plays an annoying arcade-type game on the start page. How can I get rid of it?

    Heheh, it's Mozilla being cheerfully quirky on the Firefox page (you are talking about the Mozilla Firefox Start Page or "about:home", right?).
    If so, Mozilla will be changing it with another image in the future; I don't know when, though. For now, you have a few options:
    * Set Google/Bing/etc. as your homepage so that you won't see the Start Page when Firefox launches.
    * Use the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/stylish/?src=userprofile Stylish] extension to remove the image.
    '''Using the Stylish Addon''':
    # Click the Stylish icon > Write new Style > For this URL (as seen in the first image below)
    # Create a style as seen in the second image (you can name it whatever you'd like, but <br> <code>#brandLogo {<br> &nbsp; visibility: hidden;<br>}</code> <br>must be kept. This makes the arcade game invisible. If you'd like to remove it altogether, swap <code>visibility:hidden;</code> with <code>display:none;</code>.
    Save your style. A few weeks later, you can check to see if the arcade game has been removed by Mozilla by disabling the Stylish style on the Start Page. I know it's not a straightforward fix, but it's the best I can do. :)
    I hope that helped you!

  • How do I get rid of annoying popups

    My husband uses the IPad to read and play card games. How do we get rid of those annoying pop up ads while he's playing cards.  Specifically Hearts and Solitaire.  Pop ups will appear when dealing another hand.  Sometimes the entire screen goes black except for one tiny little x that we have to click numerous times before the fame comes back.  he really gets frustrated and i cant help him.  Any suggestions?

    I don't play hearts, but I do play Solebon Solitaire. I play the iPhone version on my iPad, but I see that they have a pro version for the iPad.

    probably didn't buy it cause I already had one. Anyway, lots of games, actually programmed so that you can win every once in a while. I really like it.
    For Hearts, I'd look at reviews and ratings. That often gives you an indication if the app is any good or not.

  • How can I get rid of annoying "Unnamed USB device" messege??

    Whenever I boot into OS9.2.2 on my other drive in my dual 500Mhz. G4 I get a usb upgrade messege window:
    "Software needed for the USB device "Unnamed device" is not available. Would you like to look for the software on the internet?"
    This appears everytime I boot, restart, startup on this drive. I've looked for this "unnamed device" in various places like the extensions folder to delete it but I can't find it anywhere. All of my usb devices are functioning and have been named including my MIDI controller. It would be great if I could get rid of this annoying reminder.......how can I get rid of this???
    500mhz. Dual processor (revision B) dual boot   Mac OS 9.2.x   1.25gig RAM

    I think it's my midi controller. I unplugged iton startup and I didn't get the messege. I've got the right driver installed for it and it's working fine so I don't know why I keep getting the messege. It's annoying to have to answer the question everytime time I startup.

  • How do I get rid of annoying text at end of yahoo email?

    Using Safari and Yahoo email.  No signature has been set yet every email ends with a tailing set of characters, one character per line as follows:
    Preferences § 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 - = Backspace Tab q w e r t y u i o p [ ] Return capslock a s d f g h j k l ; ' \ shift ` z x c v b n m , . / shift English alt alt Preferences
    What is causing this and how can I get rid of it?
    I am actually asking for my daughter.  This has been going on for a long time and I am stumped.  I have gone into both Yahoo email and Safari preferences and can find no reason for this happening. 

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain iMacs.  The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • How do I get rid of annoying popups even after the proper settings have been checked?

    Popup blocker is on but I still get annoying popups. When I use Google Chrome I do not get any popups. I tried for hours to get rid of these and also have asked questions with no answers.....I guess if you people cant help I'll have to resort to making GOOGLE CHROME my default browser....thats how bad the popups are!

    I don't play hearts, but I do play Solebon Solitaire. I play the iPhone version on my iPad, but I see that they have a pro version for the iPad.

  • How can I get rid of annoying sounds?

    I just received my first iPhone.  I like it, however, there are two annoying sounds/noises that I cannot seem to turn-off.  The first sound is what appears to be a "baby laughter" every time I send out a text.  I have all sounds turned off  on the texting and it is still there.  The second sound is every time I want to put the iPhone in a sleep mode with the button on the top of device, I get what appears to sound like a "camera click."  I would appreciate some input in getting rid of these two sounds.

    There is not an option to disable the alert sound when a text is successfully sent.
    To disable the click sound, go to Settings > Sounds > Lock Sounds > Off.

  • How can I get rid of annoying, unwanted playlists put on my phone by apple?

    I hate that I can't personalize my phone. Everything with apple is so generic. Why can't products be suited to the user rather than users conforming to the product? I hate all the annoying playlists and app icons for things I don't want.
    Do I have a choice? 

    You do under some circumstances, however you are not addressing Apple here. We are users like you. As far as icons are concerned, native iOS icons cannot be deleted, but many people just create a junk folder to put them in and put that folder on their last home page. I understand this isn't the solution you are searching for, but it does help some people. Some playlists can be removed, however some cannot.
    As far as letting Apple know how you feel about this, they do not come to the forum. Use the feedback page here: www.apple.com/feedback and click on the appropriate link. This is where they get user feedback.
