How do I keep people from knowing I am on line?

People can tell when I come on line. How do I prevent this from happening?

Can you please specify a little more?
Does this happen when you connect, or just when opening Firefox? Can he tell all the time, or only after you go to a website?
This doesn't sound like something from Firefox. It sounds like your brother may have:
1. A direct connection
2. A notification via Facebook, Gmail, forums, ect.
3. A program similiar to the Find-My-Friends app on an iPhone
You should probably talk to your brother as he may have more information.

How can I keep people from saving images from my website?

Hi,
have a look at this thread
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5645821&tstart=0#5645821
and the link I posted in that thread
However there's no way to avoid that people grab photos from your website. Nevertheless there are ways for making it a little more difficult.

How can I keep people from accessing my Thunderbird program?

I deal with a lot of confidential information and need to restrict access to Thunderbird. Is there a way to do this? I see that a master password does not keep people from viewing emails that I have already received or sent.

Hello,
     Here's what we do. We add a parameter check in the creationComplete action that checks for the domain from a server side global variable.
     Example:
     In the init function we check for domain. If you are doing it in PHP then,
     1.) Change your html file to a php file
     2.) Add a parameter to the embed tag for the swf to include the domain = $_REQUEST[URI]
     3.) In the init() function called from the CreationComplete
     private function init_app():void{
          domain = Application.application.parameters.domain;
          if(domain != "http://www.mydomain.com") {
               //Do whatever to kill the apps - (NavigatetoURL for your homepage to purchase the app)...
     This could be done with CF or asp. Doesn't really matter.
Kind regards,

I have blocked someone from calling/texting me. How do I keep them from knowing?

I have blocked some from calling/texting me. Is it possible to make it so they don't know? I don't want them to hear the message or receive a text stating that their number is blocked.

Punky45, we totally understand your need to be discreet about this. With the call and messaging block feature, you will be able to add 10 digit phone numbers from sending you text messages and calling your device. No reply message advising that their phone number will be sent. However, there will be an automated message that advises that this caller is unable to accept incoming calls. For more details regarding your block options, click http://vz.to/1siP4if

Someone is accessing my itunes account using my apple id and password. How do I stop this? I have changed my apple id and password, will that be sufficient? How do I keep this from happening? No one knows my id and password, my kids have their own.

I have an Iphone 4s. I noticed today that someone has been downloading music using my apple id and password. No one knows my id or password. Not even my children. How can I stop them from using it? How can I keep it from happening again?

Changing your password should be sufficient, that should be required to be entered to download anything from the store.
In case it's the new U2 album that you are referring to, then that was given to free to everyone last month - you can remove the album if you don't want it on your account : http://itunes.com/soi-remove
If not, and if you've been charged, then contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

How do I keep Microsoft from adding things to my computer. I have updates off, and recently they have put two new things on that I know of-bacause they caused a problem with my computer.

How do I keep Microsoft from adding things to my computer. I have automatic updates off (because one of their updates caused my computer to crash), but recently they placed an add-on for Firefox that required much time to remove, and they also added something else that caused Outlook to not work. I don't know what else they might have added that I know nothing about.
== This happened ==
Not sure how often
== The crash was a few years ago, the other two events were within the last couple of months.

In terms of the Firefox add-ons, see http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/.NET+Framework+Assistant
For MS installing things that are not part of Firefox, I think you're better off asking in a Windows forum.

How do I keep html from rendering in to a link, I need it to show

Hi All,
How do I keep html from rendering into a link, I need the html code to show in a comment box so others can copy and paste it in other comments on a photo sharing site.
The code rightful renders into a link and the html no longer shows how do I stop
it from rendering?
I would really appreciate any help! Thank you for your time.
Cheers,
Maria /eMe

Hi Eme
I don't know for sure w/o trying the site, but I guess you mean that a href ="some-site.com" type things are rendering as links, rather than text people can read? same as these forums I spose.
first, try replacing the opening < with < and the closing > with > for both the initial <a> and the closing </a>
hopefully...that'll allow the code to be visible, tho' you may find the site still converts the url to a clickable link.

How do I stop people from being redirected from my organization's website to another with a similar address and copied content (not a problem on IE or Chrome)?

My organization's website is: www.wallingfordseniors.org
Many people when using Firefox are being redirected to another website (www.wallingfordsseniors.org) which has lifted our content verbatim. Even when typing in our address, people get sent to the other one. This other website is being operated by an unknown entity and the hosting company has no contact information we can find to send a DMCA violation letter to. Anyway to keep people from going to the other site? For now all the links are the same but we are concerned that they will mess with our link to submit donations and route money to themselves with our donors thinking they are giving to us. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It depends on how it's happening. For example:
* DNS Server glitch (OS or router level): however, you would expect the same result in all browsers
* Custom DNS/proxy setting in Firefox - users can check their connection settings as described in this article: [[Advanced settings for accessibility, browsing, system defaults, network, updates, and encryption]] (network mini-tab under Advanced settings)
* Non-default search engine plugin -- if the user puts a space in the domain -- that doesn't display search results normally: user can make sure Google is selected
* Hijacked by a browser extension: user can try Firefox's Safe Mode
* Redirect hacked into your website (in .htaccess or a PHP/JSP/ASPX file under certain circumstances)
Once the wrong address is in Firefox's history, for example from making a typo once, users may find it hard to notice the difference when given autocomplete suggestions.
Hopefully you can track it down.

How do I keep iMessage from going to the upper right and out of sight?

Imessage in Mavericks at random, on sleep, and when minimized, goes to upper right on the screen and I cant get it back. Even Mission control can not access it. I have close iMessage and restart. How do I keep it from going to the upper right and out of sight?

Hi,
I think a Screen Shot will help.
Use the CMD+shift+4 and then decribe around the area when you see the cross hairs.
To Post here use the Camera icon in the reply screen and then select/navigate to the Screen Shot (normally on your Desktop) and select it.
Then use the Insert Image button.
I don't use Sleep so I can't speak to that.
Minimise should put it in the DOCK.
Do you mean coming out of Minimise ?
Actually where is your DOCK (mine is at the bottom and I nearly forgot other people have it in different places)
If it is on the right is the Finder icon top of the icons ?
If the windows of an App are minimised then it does not appear in Mission Control (some of this is mixed with normal behaviour).

How do I keep jboss from trying to start?

I upgraded from 10.4.10 to 10.5. I read that Jboss isn't supported in 10.5 - which is OK since I don't need it and don't know why I had configured 10.4 to start it.
So how do I keep it from trying to launch? The console's filling up with the following messages:
11/1/07 5:47:34 AM com.apple.launchd[1] (com.webobjects.jboss323[11630]) Suspicious setup: User "appserver" maps to user: _appserver

Hi!
I got the same problem, and here is a suggestion. I haven't tested it yet, but...
Go to: /System/Library/LaunchDaemons
Startup items are placed in this directory. Whenever the Server boots, they are launched. There are more directories like this, all with .plist-files.
There is a file called: com.apple.jboss.plist
Move it out from the directory (but don't delete it) and reboot your server.
If you have programs you want to launch at startup, you can write a .plist-file for them and put them in one of these directories. Apple has documented this somewhere, but I don't remember where.

I have multiple devices backed up to the same computer each with different data. how do i keep them from syncing all data when i back up or transfer stuff from the computer to a device?

i have multiple devices backed up to the same computer each with different data. how do i keep them from syncing all data when i back up or transfer stuff from the computer to a device? one is an iphone 6 and the others are ipad mini first gens, each ipad has 64gb and the iphone has 128, need to keep the data seperate as they are not all mine

Itunes content and pics are NOT part of the backup that itunes performs.
Backing up, updating, and restoring iPad, iPod touch, and iPhone software
You should transfer any purchases from iphone regularly: File>Transfer Purchases , if they fail to be transferred when you sync.
You buy one and only one download. It is your responsibility to move/copy/backup your purchases.
You can try contacting itunes support and asking for an exception, but they are under no obligation to allow.

How can I keep lion from generating .DS_Store files on windows network partitions, but not disable it for all network partitions?

How can I keep lion from generating .DS_Store files on windows network partitions, but not disable it for all network partitions? I am fimilar with changing the setting for all network partitions(defaults write com.apple.desktopservices DSDontWriteNetworkStores true), but that is undesirable when I connect my laptop to my home network. A preferable solution would be where I could control the writing of these files based on disk format (NTFS vs HFS+).

Go to MacUpdate or CNET Downloads and search for ds_store. There are numerous utilities for preventing them from being transferred to Windows systems.

How do I keep itunes from putting things into the cloud after I've downloaded them?

Hello - Not everyone lives in Silicon Valley or New York City. I have a relatively slow internet connection so it takes about 2 hours to download a 45-minute tv episode. Yesterday I did that, and today I went to watch it and it had been put back in the cloud! "No problem," says Apple, "You can download it again." It takes f**** 2 hours to download it again. How can I keep Itunes from putting things I've already downloaded back into the cloud?

How do I keep itunes from putting things into the cloud after I've downloaded them?
You don't. They are in the cloud as soon as you make a purchase. As in immediately/right now. They don't get uploaded from yoru computer to the cloud.
Did you delete it after you watched it?
