How do I shut off automatic HP updates

Everytime we turn on the computer, HP autmatically updates which takes over an hour, then restarts the computer and updates again.  How can we keep it from doing that, we don't want the updates?  We have a 6310E desktop purchased in 2010.

Take a lesson from those who didn't take on the responsibility of vetting for themselves what goes on their Macs and ended up with damaged iWork files, without even knowing what happened.
You don't let anyone to come into your house to remove furniture whenever they choose.
And you don't give them unfettered access to your bank account either.
It is not going to kill you to check for updates and select which ones you want.

  • How do I turn off automatic Pages updates?

    I strongly dislike Pages 5.0.  For the past few months I have been deleting Pages 5.0 every time it is automatically re-installed on my MacBook Pro.  Now I want to stop these updates/reinstallations.  I just bloody don't want that software at all, it is so much inferior to Pages 4.3.  So how do I stop the system from updating Pages, preferably without stopping other software updates?

  • How do I shut off automatic  button navigation?

    I don't seem to have the choice in preferences it just has buttons navigate automatically right or left or up or down...I want to shut them off I have version 4.2.0 mac osx 10.5.6 version, 2x2.8 ghz quad core intel thanks

    On the menu screen, in the upper right corner, you will find a button for "Settings". Make sure "Auto Assign Buttons Continuously" is not checked.
    Then you can select each button individually and then look at the Inspector. Hit the Advanced tab and you will see you can program the Up, Down, Left, Right buttons however you want.

  • How do i turn off automatic software updat

    Every time I turn around, the little icon that wants me to update my creative software on my computer is running. I can't stop it until it tells me my player isn't connected and then I can turn it off. Thing is- I don't want to autoupdate any software and especially not the firmware. I'm worried that the software will start updating when I do have the player connected. The player works just fine at the moment and I really don't want any firmware or software updates, so I need to find out how to turn off that autoupdate feature.
    Anyone have any idea how to do this?Message Edited by nrfuller on 04--2008 03:32 PM

  • How to I shut off automatic email notifications?

    All of my preferences are set to "no".  I posted one question and now I'm getting bombarded with unwanted emails!  How do I stop this?

    I think that a response to an entry you make when it was turned on, the flag is tied to that entry.  So you may need to wait it out until the whole post fades away.   New posts will not have the flag, since you have turned it off.

    every time I go to a new site a bar is lowered and ask to update my plugin. I am using mac 10.4.11 G4 The new plugin will not work. How do I shut off the plugin update so I don't get this anoying bar ever time I go to a new web page. If there is no way to shut it off, I'll trash Firefox and go back to Safari. This just started and I'm tired of it.

    to turn off the messages about outdated plugins, enter "about:config" into the address bar of the browser, confirm the info dialog, then search for the preference named "plugins.hide_infobar_for_outdated_plugin" & double-click it in order to toggle it to "true".
    please also note that firefox 3.6.28 was the last build that ran on a powerpc, however if you want to use an up-to-date browser based on firefox you can switch to "tenfourfox" - the downside is it doesn't support plugins at all
    [[Firefox no longer works with Mac OS X 10.4 or PowerPC processors]]

  • How do I turn off automatic downloads in Yosemite 10.10?

    Since upgrading to Yosemite 10.10, the App Store is automatically downloading updates.  This creates an issue as my internet access is through Hughes Net satellite.  I have a daily download allowance.  The updates often quickly suck up my entire allowance causing me additional charges for an additional allowance.  I need to shut off automatic downloads/updates and can't find where to do this.  Please help.

    Go to system preferences>app store. Uncheck "automatically check for updates."

  • How can I shut off all of the pop-up windows for all the Firefox updates?

    How can I shut off all of the pop-up windows for all the Firefox and Thunderbird updates?
    Apparently now Mozilla creates new versions of their browser and email apps every two weeks instead of just creating updates... I'm tired of all of the pop-up requests for these constant installation requests and all the problems that the new version installations create... I just want to use the software and be left alone.
    I can't find a way to make Firefox and Thunderbird stop with the pop-up requests for new installations... is there a way to do this or has Mozilla just got it rigged so one can't just use the software without re-installing a new version every two weeks and running in to new plugin issues and missing features every time?
    Help!

  • How to keep that valve open for certain period of time and shut off automatically

    Hi everyone,
    The objective of the VI is to measure pH and then open acid or base valve based on pH valve. Below is my UNFINISHED VI
    My question is:  if, for example, the  pH is 10, then, the program will open acidic valve for 5 seconds and then shut off automatically. After that, wait for 5 second. this process will go on and on as I use while loop, but I just dont know how to control the valve on for 5sec and off and then wait for 5sec.
    Anyone can help me out?    Thank you very much
    In the picture, please enter those values before running
    P.S The VI is based on previously posted vi by someone who made it 1 yrs ago.

    1. The reason the valves close immediately is that the Elapsed Time VI does not cause any wait, it only measures the time. So the valves closed within a small fraction of a second of the time they opened.
    2. I modified your VI to wait until the Elapsed Time has ended.  See the "wait" state.  I probably modified some of your other functionality in the process, but this shows one way you could do the timing. 
    3. You do not need any Value property nodes.  They should never be used if the value can be wired directly.
    4. You do not need any sequence structures. Dataflow will determine the order of things occurring.
    5. If you use an enum for the state machine (and it is a good way to name and select states), you should make it a type def. Then when you need to change it as I did to add several states, you only need to change the Type Def in one place and the changes propagate through to every place you used the control or constants derived from it.
    6. I added a Halt state which will close both valves before stopping the program.  When you are controlling a real world process, it is important to consider the start up and shutdown requirements. For example the digital outputs of the USB-6008 default to inputs when the device is first powered up. And, the inputs are pulled high by a 4700 ohm resistor (at least I think I recall that value). Will this open your valves before the program starts running and sets the I/O lines to outputs and forces them low?
    The USB-6008 has rather limited drive on the digital lines. You will probably need a buffer between it and the valve coils.
    PID and PWM are more complicated than I want to get into here.  First, are your valves proportional or on/off? Second, (assuming that they are on/off) how fast can you open and close them without destroying them in the first week? What is their expected lifetime in terms of the number of operations? How fast do you need to be able to change them to keep your pH where you want it?  Are these values compatible?

  • My system keeps shutting off unexpectedly after updating it to OS X 10.8.2 (12C60). is there anything that can be done to correct this?

    My system keeps shutting off unexpectedly after updating it to OS X 10.8.2 (12C60). is there anything that can be done to correct this?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads 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 andWi-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 the test.

  • How do I turn off automatic sync?

    I recently accidently deleted most of my itunes music library. Previously I had itunes set to automatic sync. All my music is on my ipod classic and I want to keep it. I am worried that if I connect my ipod to the PC it will automatically sync and will delete most of the music on my ipod. How do I turn off automatic sync and set it to manual sync? Is there a way of changing the settings without connecting the ipod? Would it be of any help if I had access to another ipod and could I use this to change settings. I would be very grateful for any help.
    Padraig

    To prevent auto sync, connect the iPod whilst holding down the 'control+shift' keys and do not let them go until your iPod appears in iTunes.
    If you see a message that your iPod is associated with a different library and asks if you want to link to new one, make sure you press "Cancel".
    If you should click on "Erase and Sync" will erase all the content currently on your iPod and it will be replaced with the content of the iTunes library you just connected to.
    When you've pressed cancel your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list under "devices" and allow you to change the update setting to manage the iPod content manually, and that will let you use your iPod for the time being without the risk of accidentally erasing the contents.
    Then do any of the following to transfer your music from iPod back to the computer/iTunes.
    For iTunes version 7 or later, then you can transfer purchased iTunes store music from the iPod to an authorized computer by using the "file/transfer purchases from iPod" menu. Note that the maximum of 5 authorized computers applies here.
    Find out how to do that here.
    How to copy iTunes purchases from an iPod or iPhone to a computer.
    For all other non purchased content (your own CDs etc), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
    Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it is a little more involved than other methods.
    Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
    One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
    Other free programs are Pod Player, SharePod and Floola and iDump.
    If you want to recover just the structure of playlists from the iPod (and not the actual song files themselves), there's iRepo for Windows. which I understand has this feature along with all the standard features for these programs.
    iPodRip also has the feature enabling you to reconstruct playlists.
    There is also CopyTrans. This does preserve ratings/playcounts etc if those are important to you but this program is not free. It also supports video transfer.
    More information is contained here.
