How do I stop FunMoods from opening every time I open a new tab.

I tried changing the about:config line url:blank but that didn't work. Screw FunMoods.

Try to reset the funmoods prefs on the about:config page.
*Open the about:config page via the location bar and do a search for funmoods via the Search bar at the top of the about:config page. 
*Reset all funmoods related prefs that appear bold (user set) via the right-click context menu to their default values.
If you do not keep changes after a restart then see:

How do I stop InDesign from crashing every time I open a certain file?

I tried to move a 2 page spread to the beginning of a 52 page layout and InDesign crashed. I tried recovery and it would crash each time seconds after opening. I tried closing every thing, hard boot, then opening from the file. It opened fine then in 2 seconds it crashed. I tried a different file and there was not a problem. How do I keep it from crashing my 52 page file?

The file could be corrupted. Do you have a backup?

How can I stop Firefox from 'talking' every time I click a new item on my laptop screen?

Without my doing anything, all of a sudden my Firefox started talking every time I click something on my laptop screen. Example: I clicked the link that took me to this page. Firefox said "new window... Firefox menu ... Ask a New Question ..." I don't need this, it interferes with all that I do that requires my speaker turned on. How can I stop this?

You can also manage all permissions on the about:permissions page via the location bar. 
Use "All Sites" to set the defaults.
You can open about:xxxx pages via the location bar like you open a website. 
Firefox uses the about: protocol to access internal Firefox (setting) pages.

How do I stop iPhoto from freezing every time I open it?

My O/S is Mac OS X Version 10.6.8.
iPhoto version is 8.1.2
Does anyone know of a way to fix this so iPhoto will open without freezing?

Remember this was a test. It tells us that iPhoto is essentially sound and the issue is within your main library.
Let's try repair that:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

How do I stop apps from reloading every time I unlock my iPhone?

How do I stop apps from reloading every time I unlock my iPhone? I have an iPhone 4 and at least 95% of the time I unlock it, some apps act as though they are reinstalling. It only lasts for about 3 seconds if that but it makes me feel like something is wrong with it. Does anyone else have this problem??

Could you explain what you mean by this? What is happening that makes you think they're reinstalling?

I don't want to see the Create, etc window when opening PS CC2014. How do I stop it from appearing EVERY time I start PS?

Overall, I like PS CC 2014. However, the most annoying thing is the popup window that appears EVERY time I start the program. It's the one with "Create", etc at the top and links to a bunch of videos. How do I make it so I no longer have to see it any more?

Scroll to the bottom of the Welcome screen. There you can tick 'Don't show ...'

How do I stop iPhoto from launching every time I sync my iPhone?

I have looked for something in Preferences on both my iPhone's PHOTOS tab as well as in iPhoto but cannot find where to tell whatever I need to tell to stop iPhoto from launching automatically every time I hook up my iPhone to my Mac to sync. This is really annoying and I'd so much rather just handle anything like that via the iTunes interface vs. another window/program that has to operate to deal with stuff on the iPhone. It's INelegant at best and just simply a pain in the arse at worst.

You mean I can use this Image Capture thing for moving stuff from scanners as well?
You bet. Some don't prefer using iPhoto to store all imported digital camera photos or any such application (not sure why but to each his/her own) so Image Capture can be used instead which is a simple import/transfer application. Using Image Capture, you can download some or all, remove photos from the camera after the download process, select a default download location or create a new folder in the location of choice and use a chosen automatic task such as crop to a 4' x 6' which occurs after the download process is complete.
A nice simple little application which has some juice for those who don't like using iPhoto or similar type application.
I'm in the habit of rooting around the applications folder and utilities folder with a new Mac purchase so I was aware of Image Capture but I've always preferred using iPhoto for my digital camera import process.

How do you stop iPhoto from loading every time you dock the iPhone?

I would like to NOT have iPhoto start up every time I plug in my iPhone. I am sure there must be an easy way to do this. Thanks!

There are two different topics in this thread, and two separate "sync photo" issues with iPhone.
1) Syncing photos to iPhone, similar to the process if you had an iPod. This is handled as mentioned above, from within iTunes.
2) Syncing photos from iPhone, as with any camera. This is handled from within iPhoto, also as mentioned above.
I just wanted to point out that these are two independent processes, able to be modified separately.
If you have cleared out the iPhone and/or not taken any more pictures, it will not cause iPhoto to pop up.

How do I stop Photoshop from crashing every time I select the print command?

Mac OSX 10.9. Epson Artisan 1430 just installed driver update after it started crashing but it didn't help. Also crashes with HP printer.

Try the steps here:FAQ: How do I reset my preferences?
Then when you start Photoshop, Open a file, and Cmd P to open the Print dialog.
Then press your Option key and you will see the Cancel button, and it will change to a Reset button.
Click on Reset.
Close the Print dialog, close the file, exit and restart Photoshop.
Hopefully this will work.

How do I stop iTunes from autofilling every time I sync my iPod touch?

Everytime i sync my ipod touch 4th gen (32gb ios5) with my mac (10.7) itunes (10.5.1) removes and replaces about 1000 to 2000 songs! this is fine except it takes hours and all i want to do is put a new cd om my ipod, not change a couple of thousand songs.
so my question is how do i get my ipod back to normal manualy manged music mode?
also, restoring isn't an option as my music is stuck on a hdd that i don't have an enclouse for (previous one broke).
Any and All help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks, Jesse

Hello Jesse,
Autofill is only available when you sync manually. So switching to automatic sync (and then back to manual) should disable it.
Here is a a support page that explains how to set up auto fill, when you plug your iPod in.

This reads backwards, It is the other way as "Norton update is compatible with Firefox 9".

How do I block a popup window that I have allowed to open on Firefox once? I now have the popup blocker set to block all sites, but the popup still opens every time I open Firefox or open (sometimes) a new tab.

How do I block a popup? I allowed this popup to open once. Now I have set the popup blocker to block all sites but this popup still opens every time I open Firefox and sometimes (usually) when I open a new tab.
I Have stopped and restarted Firefox multiple times.
I have rebooted the computer.
I have set the tools/options/content/block pop-up windows/exceptions to block all sites (no exceptions).
I have no other issues with Firefox.
I have Adblock plus (with (1) subscription) installed
I am currently using Firefox version 4.0 on Windows7 Ultimate.

Just to address the last point: check your History menu to see whether you have the Restore Previous Session option and use that if you can. If that is grayed out or doesn't restore everything, check the Recently Closed Windows and Recently Closed Tabs lists for other pages.
The unwanted window may be generated by an add-on. Try disabling ALL nonessential or unrecognized extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable.
Usually a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
Any improvement?
Here are some other things to check:
(1) user.js file that changes Firefox startup behavior and overrides your preferences. This article describes how to track that down and delete it if you have one: [[How to fix preferences that won't save]].
(2) Possible hijacked shortcut. Check the "target" of the desktop icon you use to start Firefox to see whether it lists the unwanted page. To do that:
right-click the icon > Properties > Shortcut tab
For 64-bit Windows 7, the Target should be no more and no less than this:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
(3) Possible undisclosed bundle items. If you have installed any free software recently, check your Windows Control Panel, Uninstall a program for surprises. If you click the "Installed on" column head to group by date, it is easier to spot bundled junk. Remove everything suspicious or unrecognized.
(4) Supplemental clean up scans. Our support article lists tools other Firefox users have found helpful: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]].
Hopefully that cures it.

Any way to stop iPhoto from launching every time iPhone syncs??

The subject posting says it all: Is there any way to stop iPhoto from launching every time I synch my iPhone? I've clicked this and that, checked this and that. I must be missing something so if someone could help, I thank you in advance.

OR ... delete the photos from the phone after they were imported. If you want those photos to be on the phone, set them to import during a sync. Getting them out of the iPhone's "camera roll" album is the key here.
An easy way is to set up a iPhoto album called "for iPhone" or something. When your new photos are initially imported into iPhoto they will be in the "last roll" smart album. Select them from there and drag them into your "for iPhone" album and make sure that album is selected to sync. Either check the "delete photos after importing" box in iPhoto or delete them manually from your "camera roll" album on your iPhone after the sync. iPhoto will not automatically open until you take new photos.
Remember ... setting Image capture to not open iPhoto, as well as the setting iPhoto to delete photos after importing ... will apply to your camera or memory card device as well.

I-tunes is downloading my purchase from scratch every time I open it up...

Why is i-tunes downloading my purchase from scratch every time I open it up? This means I can't watch the episode as it freezes after 10 minutes and says it has 12 hours to go until download is complete...
I have also found that the words get out of sync and I have to pause it for it to catch up. This happened on my old computer but I now have a new one and it is still doing it...

Launch System Preferences and click on the “General” icon
At the bottom of the “Number of recent items” list, uncheck the checkbox next to “Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps”
