How do I stop text from resizing to the size of the browser window

Hello there,
I am using a DW CS3 template that has a sidebar div and a
main content div - the text in the main content div keeps resizing
to the size of the browser window - I don't want the text to resize
if I make the browser window smaller - I want it to remain the
same. I am trying to float the text right and input a width but
this is not working for me. What am I doing wrong?
HELP!
Many thanks!

>>What am I doing wrong?
Not giving us a link to the uploaded page so we can see the
page, how it
behaves and the actual code.
Until we see that you are unlikely to get a definitive
answer. The problem
is unlikely as you state it because text itself is never
dependant on the
browser viewport size.

I have all my music on my external hard drive when I try to add it to iTunes it is automatically added to my MacBook Pro's hard drive. How do I stop this from happening? I just want the music to stay on the external hard drive. Thanks!

I have all my music on my external hard drive when I try to add it to iTunes it is automatically added to my MacBook Pro's hard drive. How do I stop this from happening? I just want the music to stay on the external hard drive. Thanks!

This is true of course, but doesn't cover the situation where some files are in the iTunes Media folder and others are on an external drive. In my case I keep my music in the Media folder and all my films on an external drive (there are too many to have on the internal drive). In iTunes 11, and before, it was easy to add those external files by holding down the alt/opt key while dragging to the sidebar. In iTunes 12 this is no longer possible. There are several workarounds: use TuneSpan to move the file after it's been added; delete the file from the Media folder and empty the trash then use iTunes Get Info which will report the file is missing and allow you to locate it; constantly switch the Add to iTunes toggle on and off as required. All of these require a lot more work than just holding down the alt/opt key while adding.
It constantly gets harder.

How do I stop texts from being seen on multiple devices on the same iTunes account

I just updated my iphone 4s to ios 6 and now my texts are being viewed on another iphone connected to the same itunes account. How do I stop this from happening??

Go into Settings -> Messages -> Send & Receive on the devices that your would not like to get your text messages to.
Then remove the email addresses that you would not like to be reached on, especially the one that is the same as your Apple ID.
Just leave the phone number there, and then the text messages should only appear on your iPhone 4s.

How do I stop texts from coming to the new Messages app on my macbook?

I was on my computer and wanted to try out the new Messages app so I opened it up, and wrote a message to my g/f and one to my friend. Now everytime they text me I get notifications on my macbook pro. I have clicked the X next to their name on the Messages app to delete the conversation from Messages but whenever they text me I still get pop ups on my macbook.
I do know how to turn of notifications for the messages app completely but I don't want to do that.

Hi,
You could just disable the Account as has been said (Untick the "Enable this Account" box)
You can remove the Apple ID
GO to the Preferences > Accounts and the iMessages account
Use the Account Detail Button
Use the Sign Out button (Removes ID)
Either or these will stop Messages logging in to the iMessages server and trying to Sync iMessages sent to your Apple ID.

How do I stop text from changing colour when hovering over it?

Hello, I have downloaded a template for Dream Weaver CS6 (Which is the version i am usig). When you hover over one of the boxes the top text changes colour to black instead of staying white... does any one know how i can make it so the text stays the same colour. I will post a print screen of it.
Before clicking:
View image: 1
When hovering over it:
http://postimg.org/image/wdsii9mab/
I will post the code of the index page aswell: <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <title>Home</title> <meta ch - Pastebin.com
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Your unwanted pink hover color comes from style.css line 181 here
.btn_{
    background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #cf3046;    border: medium none;
    border-radius: 3px;
    box-shadow: 0 3px 5px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
    color: #ffffff;
    font-family: "Open Sans",sans-serif;
    font-size: 12px;
    font-weight: bold;
    line-height: 15px;
    margin-top: 20px;
    padding: 7px 13px 8px;
    text-decoration: none;
    text-shadow: none;

JTabbedPane - How do I stop it from resizing?

I am resizing a jTabbedPane. Problem is, when a tab is selected, jTabbedPane revalidates and repaints, causing it (and any other controls inside its container that were resized, moved) to go back to the original size; is there any way around this? why is it going back to its ORIGINAL size, eons after its been resized? I know how much SWING loves to be in control of the layout, but pllleeeeeeeeeaaaaaseeeeeeeee...
ps: i am using the XYLayout manager, but this behaviour is evident in all layout managers..

are you doing something squirrely with the layout? you are absolutely correct that Swing is obnoxious about resizing things after the fact. have you tried taking the components in the JTabbedPane and dropping them in a JPanel in a JFrame and resizing them from there? (i.e.: test that your layout mechanism is correct.)
something else that might help is to use the setPreferredSize(), setMaximumSize() and setMinimumSize() methods.
i recently laid out some JButtons with ImageIcons in them that were fixed 24x24 pixels. when i put them in a GridBagLayout, they were fine until i started resizing the parent JFrame. calling just the setPreferredSize() method was not enough to solve the problem, despite the fact that Swing often ignores the other setXXXSize methods. if you have static size components, this may do the trick.
if that doesn't help, post the code.
good luck,

How can I stop text from being show when I print it?

You can see the webpage I am working on here: http://www.peterforkes.com/Resume.html
I created a staylesheet called "print.css" and added the following lines to my Resume.html file:
<link href="_css/Resume.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" />
<link href="_css/Print.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="print" />
In my Resume.html file I have a link that will print a PDF of my resumé. However, if you print the resumé then I do not want the link to print the resumé to be shown.
In the print.css I created the following class:
.doNotPrint {
color: #FFF;
I applied the class to the 'offending' text, thus:
<p class="doNotPrint"><a href="PDFs/Peter A. Forkes - Resume.pdf">Resume.pdf</a></p>
however, it does not seem to have any effect. I am assuming (since the background is white) that changing the text color to white should make it invisible.
If you can suggest either how to make my method work (or suggest a better method) that that should mean that I have finished everything I want to do with my webpage.
Thanks,
Peter

I am assuming (since the background is white) that changing the text color to white should make it invisible.
The problem with the CSS is that you've targeted the <p> tag with the rule, not the <a> tag so it has no effect. Normal text in that paragraph will print in white but links will display in #333 because of your rule on a:link and a:visited
Nevertheless, I would avoid those tricks in case you incur the displeasure of the search engines. They're widely used by spammers and are punished accordingly (even though I know we're talking about a print stylesheet and your intentions are honourable :-).
In your print stylesheet, change
.doNotPrint {
color: #FFF;
to
.doNotPrint {
display:none;

How can you stop slideshow from resizing the browser window iframe ?

Does anyone know where the code is that causes the iweb slideshow to resize the browser window when it is opened?
When it is placed on a page using <iframe src="http://homepage.mac.com/coreydee/slideshow/index.html" width="760" height="580" scrolling="no" style="border:none;" frameborder="0"></iframe> It resizes the browser window when it starts.

The iWeb .Mac slideshow, which you previously tried to add in an iframe, does have a function to resize the window. But it would not cause the whole window to resize, just page within the iframe so you would never know.
However, the autoviewer one you are using should not do this.

How do i stop Safari from freezing while i'm surfing the internet?

Ok, so here's the problem. Every time I go onto Safari, it doesn't respond after i search for something on google or go on Facebook. now, i have to use Safari in Safe Mode each time and the audio is disabled so i can't watch or listen to music videos. Can someone tell me how to stop Safari from doing this? Thanks.

Maybe try another browser like Firefox.
Also, try creating a new user account on your mac, and log in to that, to see if you continue to have the same problems.

* somewhere else

How do I stop Flex from transferring underscore prefixed folders to the bin?

I started using Flex Builder 3 only recently. There is a behavior I want to change. Flex apparently looks for folders that have underscore in front of their names (e.g. _docs_, and _demos_) inside the libraries on the project path, and transfers them to the bin directory. This often results in several megabytes of junk in my bin, and I want to change this behavior.
Does anyone know how to do that?

I'm pretty sure that the space is used up on your computer's hardrive.
Anyway my solution to this nuisance of apps/itunes transfer was to allow itunes to download the apps from my phone...
...First of all I had tried to uncheck a few boxes in itunes a) automatically sync when device is connected (in the summary section) b) prevent devices from syncing (edit>preferences>devices) and c) Automatically sync new apps (apps section of device)
HOWEVER, when I would click sync in any section, apps tried to transfer to itunes from my iphone.
So after all my apps went on my computer (approx. 9 GB), I checked the boxes back, disconnected my device and deleted all the apps from itunes and my computer simultaneously (by clicking del/move to recycle bin).
Now when I connect my iphone it does it's backup/sync thing automatically ...but no apps try to transfer
Note: apps from your library cannot be set to sync with your device
I can now also click sync in any section and no apps transfer.
(This problem started when I downloaded an app from itunes rather than my device and I later transfered the app to my device. My apps section in itunes is completely empty now and no apps appear in windows explorer either)
the only thing I am unsure of now is; what's going to happen if I purchase an app from itunes on my pc again ...I'm guessing I'll have to repeat the process (might want to avoid that)

How do I stop iMovie from resizing photos?

I have made a show reel that invloves a number of images that are of all different sizes and I want to keep them that way. iMovie enlarges the images that are smaller than the screen and I want to stop this happening.

You don't have to select a complete folder, you can select individaul files or groups of files. See:
http://help.apple.com/imovie/mac/10.0/#mov6fa10197d
Note that you can also drag files from a folder with the Finder into iMovie as an alternative to using the Import function.

How do I stop texts from going to 2 separate iPhone numbers? (Not Group Texting)

I have a friend and her husband who both have iPhones. Whenever I text her, the text also pops up on his phone. They were sharing an Apple ID, which I suspected might be the problem, so I helped her create her own Apple ID, but it's still happening. This is not a Group MMS. It's an individual text. If I send it to her, they both get it. If I send it to him, usually only he gets it.
This has been going on for months. Both are now using the latest Apple software update, but the issue still remains.
They tried to contact Apple, but were told that without an service agreement, too bad.
Can you think of any way to fix this issue?

Hello,
i think from what i can gather the issue here is that the iCloud on your child's ipod and on your iPhone are using the same apple id and that is why there is some confusion with the messages.
the best think to do would be to assign that iPod to another Apple id for use with iCloud but if you do not have access to that iPod you could use a different apple id yourself now or if that isn't an option you could just change the password instead and as long as the iPod touch owner doesn't know it only you will get the messages and a password prompt is displayed in the other devices and they will be unable to gain access to your data until the new password is inserted.
kind regards,
Joshua
