How do i stop auto eject

How do I prevent my apple from auto ejecting a cd when prompted by a program. This happens when I am playing a game and after beating a certain level it asks me to insert a cinematics cd then the apple ejects the disc. In the game I am able to chose to cancel from watching the cinematic preview but the cd still ejects from the drive. Thanks.

If this happens only with this one game CD then contact the game's developers for help. It's not likely a Mac problem.
If this happens with all CDs then your optical drive may be defective. Contact AppleCare or your local Apple dealer.

How do you stop auto play only go to next slide on click once published Version 7

How do you stop auto play only go to next slide on click once published Version 7? I mean to stop the play slide bar moving down the bottom?

Thank you, I already have click boxes and buttons on every slide - the slider at the bottom still automatically moves, it doesn't go to next slide until button or box is clicked. I want to stop it moving if possible?
Update: looks like it does the same on the old versions - I'm assuming its the time set to play each slide. I will just even these up so the don't look so inconsistent.

To the best of my knowledge, there is no way to prevent the automatic downloading of the SD version when you buy an HD show.
You can, if you wish, suggest that the ability to prevent the SD version from downloading through the iTunes feedback page. But since the SD version is needed for use on iPods and there at least at present is no mechanism for someone to download the SD version at a later time should they decide they need it, Apple may just continue to force the downloading of both versions. If they get enough feedback on the issue, though, they may figure something out.
Regards.

How can I stop auto deletion of messages from my inbox?

How can I stop auto deletion of messages from my inbox?
I've tried to fix this by changing the IMAP account's Junk settings so that they are moved either to the
"Junk" folder on 'account name'
or
Other: (drop down list for choosing accounts and one of its folders) Junk on 'account name'
I am sure I lost all of my important, not junk mail, amazon.com messages as well as other messages from comercial sites.
Secondly: Please tell me what the difference is between the 2 junk folder choices above.
Thank you,

How to disable the auto eject of a failing HD

My kids HD just started to fail. Apple replaced it this AM, however my kid's TM backup is about 5 months old. I am trying to recover the data from the old disk.
She put the old disk into an enclosure and connected it to her MBP. As I try to copy as much of the drive as possible it gets an error, ejects, then reconnects and give an annoying message that I didn’t eject properly. This is making it very difficult to get all the data off.
I figured if I mounted read-only that it’d stop doing that, but it does not. I’ve run fsck, etc…
All I need is for this stupid machine to log errors and move on just like single user mode. However, I cannot use single user mode because I am 2000 miles away from the machine. And using Facetime to remote control my kid has pushed me to the edge. There has to be a way to make OSX as “unfriendly” as Linux. OSX needs a “pro” mode.
So, I ask again. How do I stop OSX from auto ejecting a disk when it errors?
Thanks.

Have you tried ditto?
From the ditto manpage
ERRORS
     ditto returns 0 if everything is copied, otherwise non-zero. ditto
     almost never gives up, preferring to report errors along the way. Diag-
     nostic messages will be printed to standard error.

How do i stop auto synching

How do i stop my phone from synching as soon as i plug it into my pc?

If you have trouble selecting the "Prevent iPods/iPhones from syncing automatically" setting, what happens if you change your computer's screen resolution?
But Carolyn's suggestion actually does prevent automatic initiatation of auto-syncing. If you de-select the "Open iTunes ..." option and here's what happens (unless its different on a Mac):
If iTunes is not running, connecting the iPhone will not launch iTunes (nor initiate a sync, of course).
If iTunes is not running, but you launch iTunes with the iPhone connected, iTunes will boot up but it will not initiate an auto-sync -- that will commence only when you click the "Sync" button in iTunes.
If iTunes is already running, connecting the iPhone will not initiate an auto-sync -- that will commence only when you click the "Sync" button in iTunes.
This is how my iPhone and iPad are set -- I auto-sync but I don't want that to start until I'm ready, and I do not have the "Prevent iPods/iPhones from syncing automatically" option set. This feature seems more applicable to non-iOS devices which are set for auto-syncing.

How do I stop auto select or hovering with my trackpad?

How do I stop my track pad / mouse from auto select (Hovering)?

I've been having this problem on my MacBookPro for some time. I live in China. In January I took it in to the Genius' in California and they replaced the trackpad.
I think it's a software problem. I continue to have this problem in Firefox and Safari. I use a VPN and I also check preroidically for viruses. I have a clean computer with no viruses. I don't open spam, links or attachments from anyone I don't know well or recognize. My computer is clean.
I use the latest versions of OS and update my software when there are new updates. I'm using 10.8.2. Haven't added 10.8.3 yet but will do so as soon as I see that it is stable.
This problem is quite frustrating. When reading and scrolling down a page of news a new item is selected or text is selected without a click. Sometimes I will be taken to a new page without having clicked anything.
It's quite a hassle sometimes.
Apple hasn't helped at all with this.

TS3147 How do I stop auto updates for an HP printer I no longer have?

I keep getting auto update notices for a printer I have discarded. How do I stop this? Within the last year my "HP" printer quit and I replaced it with a "Brother" printer. It is annoying to keep getting the HP irrelevant update notifications. I removed the HP printer info in the application folder on my hard drive, but that did not help.

I use Find File myself. I think it has been discontinued.

How can I stop auto refreshing a new web page in XP immediately after its opened?

In XP, once I access a new web page Firefox auto refreshes that page once the page is ~80-90% opened - how can i stop this refresh?

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the ''Safe mode'' start window.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (on Mac: "Firefox > Quit")

How Do You stop Auto opening apps?

How do you stop the previous apps from auto starting when you start your machine? I have already turned off the retsore windows in system prefes and I dont have any auto startup items... so what gives, can someone tell me how to stop them from opening up? I suppose I could go and close every app before I take my laptop off its power plug (battery is dead now days)... but I was just hoping there was some otehr way rather than going into each app before I pick up and run.

Kind of...but not exactly. This has been discussed at length over the last few months.
