How do I permently turn off message pane
Every time I pres F8 or uncheck the option in "view/layout" and close Thunderbird or shut down my laptop, it comes back up when I open Thunderbird again.
Thunderbird saves the settings you are using when you close it and will use those same settings when you open it next time. Some software, like CCleaner, think they know better and will erase or change those settings. Are you using CCleaner or anything like it? If so tell it to leave Thunderbird files alone.

How do I turn off messages on my iMac after upgrading to Yosemite?
How do I turn off messages on my iMac after upgrading to Yosemite?
Hi,
Open the Messages app.
Go to the Preferences item in the app's Menu.
Select the account pane in the Preferences.
Each active account should have a tick in the Enable this Account box.
This can be unticked.
This will stop accounts logging in but will not stop the app Launching in certain circumstances.
First of all check the app is Quit before shutting down the computer.
The fact the app is open even if all windows are hidden can cause the app to restart when you Start up the computer.
Messages is a Multiple window app and using the red button on the top left of a window only closes that window and does not Quit the app.
Also check the System Preferences > Users and Groups > your account > Login Items tab.
This will list items that are set to Start up when the computer does.
I have a couple of External Drive on other computers, some Anti Virus software and the common iTunes Helper plus an old version of TextExpander that will work if I launch the Preference Pane this way.

How can I turn off messages on iPad while students are at school
Is there any great way to turn off messages on the ipad without shutting down the ports required to connect to Apple on the firewall? Kids will be kids but teachers are pressing administration for solution. If you shut off messages, I may be mistaken but you can't restrict the kid from turning it back on correct?
If you own/control the iPads that run iOS 6, you can turn off Messages via Apple Configurator or an MDM solution and the students would, to the best of my knowledge, not be able to turn that back on without knowing the Restrictions passcode. For personally owned iPads, the only way to block Messages would be to block the ports at your router. Messages uses port 5222, so if you block that port, that should block the transmission of messages, though the students will still try. For more information on ports, see:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4245
Of course if the student has a cell connection on a personally-owned device, there won't be any way you can block the sending of messages at all.

How can I turn off messages for certain Action Center items?
I'd like to find a way to turn off messages for Windows Update, Network Firewall and Windows Backup. Ideally I'd like to do it with Group Policy however I can't find a policy for this. We're deploying Windows 7 right now and we'll need a solution that's domain-wide.Orange County District Attorney

when installing third party software, how do I temporarily turn off the factory installed virus sw and firewall? Is it necessary on a Mac to do so? I come from the Windows world and am still in the learning curve on the Mac.
Correct. I have not installed ANY other software for anti-virus, etc. I want to install a Synch app for my HTC phone to sych with MS Outlook 2011 installed on my Mac. HTC will not synch with it otherwise. That was really the basis for my question....if installing a non Apple app can be done without messing with factory settings on the Mac. In Windows I remember that I needed to disable Norton and the Firewall in order for installation to occur.
Thanks. -
How do I permanently turn off fullscreen view in safari?
How do I permanently turn off fullscreen view in Safari? I never want my menubar to autohide and it has been doing so since the last update. Once I click on the little blue arrows at the top right of the screen, it is temporarily fixed but then resets to fullscreen when I re-open Safari.
Thaty is quite odd behavior as I have never seen that happen
in any Safari version since full screen was added to OSX.
It almost sounds as if the preference file for Safari may be
corrupted or some other setting file. However, before messing
with that, export your bookmarks (File->Export Bookmarks...)
so you can retrieve them and under the Safari menu, select reset
Safari. If this doesn't resolve things, and since you saved your
bookmarks, in Finder hold down Option key and on the Go menu
select library. In the Preferences folder, find:
com.apple.Safari.plist
and move it to Desktop or trash it. Next time Safari opens it
will recreate the file and see if this fixes the issue. -

How do you reduce/turn off keypad sound when making a phone call
How do you reduce/turn off keypad sound when making a phone call?
If I understand the question correctly, it is not about turning off keyboard clicks, it's about silencing the beeps made when manually keying in a phone number. With keyboard clicks turned off, the beeps still sound when keying in a phone number. If I'm reading the iPhone User Guide correctly, it explains how to turn off keyboard clicks but not how to silence the beeps when keying in a phone number. The only way I have found to silence the beeps is to put the phone into silent mode.

How do I temporarily turn off Firefox virus protection to download an update?
How do I temporarily turn off my Firefox Virus protection to download an update for my Mobile HTC sync
Oh, that's a general instructions many installers give to avoid conflicts. I suggest ignoring that instruction and trying to install normally. After all, can you really trust a downloaded program??
Regarding your antivirus status, it's critical to have antivirus software, and Firefox doesn't offer that feature. If you check the "Security Center" in the Windows Control Panel, it should tell you whether you have antivirus software installed and, if so, which program it is. If you don't have one, try Microsoft's free one:

If you have any suspicion that your system might not be completely clean, these two tools are highly regarded for cleaning up:

I downloaded Carbonite software to periodically back-up my data. But my Mac cannot contact the Carbonite server. I think this is because of my firewall or virus protection. How can I temporarily turn off my firewall and/or virus protection so Carbonite can upload all the data on my Mac? How will Carbonite be able to periodically upload my data when my firewall and virus protection are back on?
ZevWatch out with Carbonite!
I found that it is not able to return many of the database for Apple products are not returned in a usable format.
I highly recommend that if you are going to use Carbonite that you test everything before commiting to it as your backup solution.

How do I completely turn off iPhone backups to my Mac?
How do I completely turn off iPhone backups to my Mac? I have an MBP with a 250 GB SSD running Mountain Lion that I use primarly for work and I'm getting low on disk space. I'm having a clear out and I noticed that my iPhone and iPad back ups use about 20 gigs which is too much. Neither carries important data and my phone photos are already covered by iPhoto auto backing up to a remote library. I don't want to pay for an iCoud account. Any ideas?
You need to sync your iPhone contacts with the Address Book on your Mac, which is as designed and intended.
Before the first sync for this data, enter one contact in the Address Book on your Mac. Make this contact up if needed, which can be deleted later. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync for this data, which you want to select.
Syncing contacts with the Address Book is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
The same applies before syncing calendar events with iCal if you aren't using iCal on your Mac for calendar events.
