How do I stop a page from collapsing towards the sidebar?

Suddenly I find the page to the right of the sidebar collapses to the sidebar. When I try to drag it out by grabbing the corner and dragging it to the right when I let go it collapses back again. Viewing in full screen brings it back but then I don't see the bars at the top. I'm failing to do something simple but I don't know what it is.

How do I stop iPhone Safari from dynamically resizing the visual viewport?

Sorry I post this here, but I couldn't access the developer forums (no error given, it just keeps returning me to this page https://developer.apple.com/devforums/) I'm not even sure wether that's been moved here and it's just the redirection non working.
I need to Stop iPhone Safari from dynamically resizing the visual viewport, or in other words, to stop it from trying to "fit" the layout into the viewport.
Why?
Because any recalculation javascript does on absolutely positioned elements makes the whole site super IRRESPONSIVE.
I don't know wether the issue is the element going out the already-set layout viewport (which triggers the page resizing to fit the visual viewport) or just the calculations being made constantly, but I can stop the calculations from happening when not "touching" the screen, but I need a way to stop the page resizing.
I tried setting the viewport width to 1040px, as my layout width, and it fixed the header's width being narrower than the body (or shifted left?), but the whole page is still resized with every motion-frame (one every 3 seconds, due to overloading the redrawing engine)
Is there a way to prevent that?

No, that link doesn't solve it. It just says the same is found everywhere online.
There's probably no way to do it, as per their way they "accidentally" omitted the oposite case: the page being wider than 980. They only mention what to do if the site is narrower. Something I learned is big companies (with reputation management) could let you run in circles for years no answer rather than telling you something is not possible.
I'm the developer (can't access the dev forums, don't know why) and I DID setup the viewport, scale and other properties but none of them stopped from re-fitting the new re-sized layout in the viewport. They just ensure the "initial" view.
I think the feature I'm looking for must be achieved with some JavaScript function targeting Safari-proprietary variable/property… if even possible.
I just had to make things never reaching the edge until somebody contributes something useful

How do I stop unnecessary programs from running in the background on a Macbook Pro 2010?

Hi recently I bought a Macbook Pro OSX 10.8.3 2010 (2.4 GHz Intel Core / 2GB 1067 MHz DDR3). Im pretty content with it considering its my first Mac. Up until recently I had no problems with its speed.
My brother directed me to the activity monitor and showed me how to quit a program. However there are still a several running programs I do not recognize and/or do not use (such as photo stream, Calendar Agent, UserEventAgent, Notification Center, AppleSpell service, cfprefsd, talagent, xpcd, imagent, com.apple.dock.extra, fontd, loginwindow, SystemUIServer, tccd, usernoted etc etc etc UGH!! The list just goes on and on. There is a circular graph at the bottom in pir form highlighted with the colors green, red, blue and yellow indicating what is taking up space or speed? If I quit Safari a huge portion of the green is highlghted. but I can not seem to get it to fill the majority of the pie graph. I see there are all these running programs (most of which I do not use or recognize) but I cannot get them to quit even if I highlight it. How can I stop this? Quite frankly its so frustrating. Again I am new to Mac.
Thanks

First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
Reset the System Management Controller.
If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane.
Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
Boot into Recovery mode, launch Disk Utility, and run Repair Disk.
Otherwise, take the steps below when you notice the problem.
Step 1
Launch the Activity Monitor application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the icon grid.
Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
Select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for % User, % System, and % Idle at the bottom of the window.
Select the System Memory tab. What values are shown in the bottom part of the window for Page outs and Swap used?
Next, select the Disk Activity tab. Post the approximate values shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec (not Reads in and Writes out.)
Step 2
If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long.

How do I stop Guest Account from appearing on the login screen?

All of a sudden - like since I upgraded to iCloud - my login screen displays "Guest User". I have Guest disabled in Accounts. The only account I have active is mine. I don't want Guest to appear on the login screen. How do i stop it from doing so?

Even when the Guest Account / Access is disabled, the login option / and lock screen, still have a guest login.
This is because in Preferences/ Security & Privacy/General the bottom item is turned on.

How do I stop a query from running when the page is loaded

Hi All,
I'm using JDeveloper 10.1.3.4. I have a JSPX page that is used to collect search parameters and then when a button is clicked uses those values to run a query and then populate a table on the same page. The problem is that when the page is loaded the system attempts to run the query. The query is a method in a session bean. I can keep the method from running the query code by wrapping it in an 'if' statement and checking the parameters for null (or other value). Once the parameters are collected the query is invoked but it looks like the method is running twice, once with the parameters (here I've checked that the result actually has rows in the list) and then again where the parameters are null and the method returns null.
What is the best way to do what I want here? From the buttons action method I am called the session beam method and returning null to stay on the same page. I think that is why the method is running the second time and returning null.
TIA,
Dave

How do I stop my pages from changing (paragraphs breaking, chapters moving) when trying to export?

I'm fairly new to indesign and am self teaching myself via the internet and books. I'm working on a novel layout and I had it finished and what I thought looked nice. The last step was to export it to a PDF format I thought. Well, when I export it and then view the PDF a few paragraphs are broken with a few lines between the first part and second part. Chapters also lose their position. I would go back into InDesign and check and it would be that was in indesign as well. I've fixed it a dozen times. Double and triple checked the pages before hitting export again. Again, more trouble, but it would be in different places. Am I doing something wrong during the export?

Did you start this book in an earlier version if InDesign and convert it? If so, the text engine is different in the new version and stories reflow when you touch them in some way. You can force ID to recompose all stories using the Keyboard Shortcut Ctrl + Alt +/ on Windows or Cmd + Opt + / on Mac, then check carefully throughthe whole thing.
You can also force a recompose by exporting to .idml and opeing that, then saving with a new name. (See Remove minor corruption by exporting)

How do I stop a page from scrolling vertically?

I have just started using Adobe Muse and am using a accordion text widget on one page. The problem is that when I preview the site the whole page scrolls up and down, including the footer. The accordion is overlapping the footer.
I don't want the pages to move at all, I want everything just on one page so that there is no scrolling up and down and I want the footer to stay where it is.
I can't solve this, I've tried everything!

Hello,
Please go to File -> Site Properties and disable sticky footer and see if that resolves the issue.
Cheers

How do you stop a movie from playing past the end?

I uploaded a video to Vimeo I made from various clips and there was about 40 seconds of black after the end. How do you add a marker so it knows where to stop and hopefull return to the beginning. I already put the 'stop' marker in but it plays past it in the elements editor and assume that's what it did in the uploaded video. I believe 'stop' marker is only for DVD play. I have Elements 11.

Expand the Timeline with the -+ slider above the Timeline. Make sure that the slider is all the way to the right so that you are at maximum expansion. Then, as Hunt suggested, hit the End key and inspect the area where the Timeline Indicator stops. These possible fragments/leftovers present typically as very thin vertical black lines scattered in the tracks. After you delete any such fragments, repeat the process to make sure you have all the fragments.
The major reason for me adding to this thread was to remind you never to put a stop marker at the end of the last item on the Timeline. It is a bad practice to fall into. It is not needed and creates all sorts of problems especially as seen in burn to disc.
Please let us know the outcome.
Thanks.

How do I stop Address Book from opening with the same searched name?, How I stop Address Book from opening with the same searched name?

Hi Romulus949,
You should take a look at the Knowledge Base article [[How to set the home page]].
There are steps in that article to reset your homepage preferences to default. I would try that first to clear out any strangeness. Then you can set your homepage to anything you like.
Hopefully this helps!

How do I stop Java processes from appearing on the dock?

I have a Java application that has a fairly extensive build process using ant. It builds fine on OSX, but constantly annoys me. There are a large number of unit tests that run using JUnit, and each test starts in a new Java process. The problem is that when each process starts (and there are about 100 during the course of the build), a new Java icon appears on the dock and stays until the process finishes. First of all, that slows down the build (since it has to do all that graphics work to keep changing the appearance of the dock). Secondly, every time a new process starts, it takes away the keyboard focus from whatever I'm currently working on. I either have to click in the window I want again, or else wait for the process to finish.
On Windows, this is handled with an alternative version of the JVM called "javaw.exe" that does not get a foreground window. However, I see no "javaw" in the Java directory on OSX. Is there some option to start Java with that will stop this dock updating? Note that there are times when I want the dock to be updated (when I'm running a "normal" Java app).

Even when the Guest Account / Access is disabled, the login option / and lock screen, still have a guest login.
This is because in Preferences/ Security & Privacy/General the bottom item is turned on.

How can I stop Adobe Reader from reading (seeking) the floppy drive when opening/closing any PDF?

Ever since I opened a PDF file from my floppy drive Adobe Reader insists on checking/seeking/reading the floppy drive whenever I open and whenever I close any PDF (not using the floppy). It is very annoying, as I use many PDFs per day and it creates a delay and noise every time.

Edit>Preferences
Under Page Display:
Where it says "Location of referenced files", if it shows "Floppy Disk A:/" clear the box, or choose an alternate location if you can't clear it.
Also, under Search:
Click "Purge Cache Contents"

How can I stop my iPad from mixing up the order of photos when I sync from my PC?

Hi-
I have a 1st generation iPad. I have noticed that when I sync photos from my PC (Windows 7) to the iPad (using iTunes) that the pics do not end up in the same order on the iPad that I had them arranged on my PC. Mostly this is not too much of a problem. But recently, I have a batch of photos that really need to be in a particular order. I spent a lot of time on my PC naming them in such a way that they'd STAY in the order I desire. There are about 185 of them, so this took a lot of work! How can I keep them in the order I want when I sync to the iPad?
Thanks for your help-
Betsy

Hi again-
Just as a final follow-up on this topic, I have been able to change the "date taken" property of each photo file without downloading any extra software. In the Windows Explorer, all I have to do is select the file and then I can edit the date in the properties pane at the bottom of the window. Since I have to change each file to a unique date so that I can control their order on the iPad, I have to do this all by hand anyway, so I did not spend much time looking for a software to do it.
Just in case this might help someone else, I thought I'd post it.

How do I stop my iPhone from connecting to the WiFi connection that my laptop just used?

I have an iPhone (7.1.2) and MacBook Pro (10.9.4). When I connect to a WiFi connection on my laptop, my iPhone always connects to the same network, even though I've explicitly told my iPhone to forget about specific networks.This issue ends up disabling the internet on my iPhone, as I often connect to networks on my laptop that require VPN connections, logins, etc that I am unable or unwilling to do on my iPhone. How do I keep the two separate?

Let me give you an example. I'm at a United lounge at O'Hare Airport right now. They have WiFi here but it requires that you log on in order to connect to the internet. I connect to WiFi from my laptop. All good. Then, immediately, my iPhone connects to the same network. But because I haven't logged on from my iPhone, I can't get online. This kills the internet on my iPhone because I'm connected to a network with no internet access. If on my iPhone I "Forget this Network" and then come back next week, I'll find that it connects to the exact same network.
I travel a lot and almost all of the networks I use on a daily basis require a login of some sort.
I could turn off WiFi but then I have to remember to turn it on when I actually do want to connect to a network, like when I'm at home.
Any idea how to prevent the mirroring of WiFi connections? Or at a minimum make sure the "Forget this Network" option actually works?
