If you mean the flash that Photo Booth delivers, see Photo Booth Help. If Help is not working:

To turn off the countdown or flash:
• To turn off the countdown, press the Option key while clicking the Shutter button.
• To turn off the flash, press the Shift key while clicking the Shutter button.
• To turn off both the countdown and flash, press Option-Shift while clicking the Shutter button.
it makes the photos look so washed out,.
If you find that you need to keep the flash because NO flash is too dark, adding LOTS more room light while using the flash will help the make the picture not look so overexposed. If STILL too bright, moving a few inches farther away from the screen should also help a bit.

  • Every keystroke and mouse movement, I get an audio notice that I need to shut off. In Safari, the cursor cycles thru every link and metadata field and I get a verbal/audio notice of what it is.  How do I shut this option off???

    Press the key combination command-F5 to deactivate VoiceOver. If that doesn't work, proceed as follows.
    For OS X 10.7: From the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences ▹ Universal Access ▹ Seeing ▹ VoiceOver: Off
    For OS X 10.8 or later: Select

    Try to position your iphone that the screen is facing away from your skin.
    Make sure that the back part of your phone will be the one that will contact your skin inside your pocket
    Thats what i do:)

  • When I adjust the duration of a clip or transaction, iMovie automatically adjusts the duration of another clip; how can I shut this feature off?

    In iMovie when I adjust the duration of a photo clip or transaction, iMovie automatically changes the duration of another clip; how can I shut this feature off?

    Ok, well you won't get a "speed scale" indicator when editing a title clip. You can only adjust duration. Now, is there music attached to the title clip? Are you adjusting the TITLE TEXT box ONLY? Try adjusting the clip BELOW Title Text box 1st, then Title Text clip.  Is the Title attached to your own video OR is it one of iMovie's default Titles??

  • When I turn on my wifi in top bar and connect,minutes later I get an annoying pop up notification letting me know I'm connected, AGAIN. It freezes everything including psswds and I have to start all over This is petty but how do I shut this popup off?

    When I turn on my wifi in top bar and connect,minutes later I get an annoying pop up notification letting me know I'm connected, AGAIN. It freezes everything including psswds and I have to start all over. This is petty, but how do I shut this popup off?

    What OS X version are you using?
    Can you take a screenshot of the pop-up notification?
    To take a screenshot hold ⌘ Shift 4 to create a selection crosshair. Click and hold while you drag the crosshair over the area you wish to capture and then release the mouse button. You will hear a "camera shutter" sound. This will deposit a screenshot on your Desktop.
    If you can't find it on your Desktop look in your Documents or Downloads folder.
    If you want to attach a screenshot to a response here, click the "camera" icon above the text field:
    This will display a dialog box which enables you to choose the screenshot file (remember it's on your Desktop) and click the Insert Image button.
    ⌘ Shift 4 and then pressing the space bar captures the window the cursor is on.
    ⌘ Shift 3 captures the entire screen.

  • How do I shut the damn thing off?

    I can not load an update of Adobe until I close Firefox. How do I do this?

    Ya the Off/sleep thing is how it works. When you hold down the Play button the iPod screen shuts off but the iPod is just sleeping. If you leave it off long enough it will eventually go into a more OFF state and next time you turn it on you will see the apple screen boot up.
    Also, if the iPod is not playing and you don't touch it, it should turn itself off (well that sleep mode) in a couple minutes. So you can either leave it and let it turn off or push and hold the play button to force it to sleep. In either case, get in the habit of moving the hold switch (on top) to the hold position so it doesn't get accidentally turned back on in your pocket, a breifcase, etc.
    Sorry, I don't listen to audio books, so can not help you on that one.

  • TS3988 When setting up icloud I entered through the section that ask if i want to sync various devices. and now all texts emails,contacts are duplicated on all devices. I don't that to happen. How do I shut that function off?

    Hoe do I shut of the sync function on Icloud?

    The first time an iPhone is connected to iTunes that is used to sync with another iPhone or iOS device, you are prompted to transfer the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device or to set up the iPhone as a new iPhone.
    The former does as provided - it transfers the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device to the iPhone replacing all data on the iPhone that is included with the backup being transferred. The latter does nothing allowing you to make your various selections for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
    This is designed to be done right away with a new iPhone.
    If you don't have a backup for the iPhone with iTunes on your computer and don't have an iCloud backup that hasn't been updated since choosing to transfer the backup for your iPod Touch to the iPhone, the data that was on the iPhone is gone.

  • HT3176 how does one shut this **** thing off?

    Apple tv works great - can someone tell me how to turn it off?

    There is no on/off without cutting the power, only sleep mode.
    They use very little energy when inactive and only around 6W max when being used.

  • 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!
    Thanks,
