How do I temporarily turn off ical reminders from iCloud?

I have reminders popping up all the time, which is OK, unless I am listening to music and I want them turned off.  How do I temporarily turn them off?  Also, is there any way to control the amount of "snooze" time like the old version of ical?

Oh, that's a general instructions many installers give to avoid conflicts. I suggest ignoring that instruction and trying to install normally. After all, can you really trust a downloaded program??
Regarding your antivirus status, it's critical to have antivirus software, and Firefox doesn't offer that feature. If you check the "Security Center" in the Windows Control Panel, it should tell you whether you have antivirus software installed and, if so, which program it is. If you don't have one, try Microsoft's free one:

If you have any suspicion that your system might not be completely clean, these two tools are highly regarded for cleaning up:

  • Turn off iCal reminders on MacBook Air.

    I have searched the internet about how to turn off the reminders from my iCal, but I can`t find the check box where it says: "Turn off all reminders".
    Is there another way to do it? Its driving me crazy!!!

    I don't see an option for turning off all reminders but you can set the default to not create them in Preferences... > Alerts.

  • When installing third party software, how do I temporarily turn off the factory installed virus sw and firewall?

    when installing third party software, how do I temporarily turn off the factory installed virus sw and firewall?  Is it necessary on a Mac to do so?  I come from the Windows world and am still in the learning curve on the Mac.

    Correct.  I have not installed ANY other software for anti-virus, etc.  I want to install a Synch app for my HTC phone to sych with MS Outlook 2011 installed on my Mac.    HTC will not synch with it otherwise.  That was really the basis for my question....if installing a non Apple app can be done without messing with factory settings on the Mac.  In Windows I remember that I needed to disable Norton and the Firewall in order for installation to occur. 
    Thanks.

  • How do I temporarily turn off my Mac's firewall and/or virus protection so Carbonite can upload my data?

    I downloaded Carbonite software to periodically back-up my data.  But my Mac cannot contact the Carbonite server.  I think this is because of my firewall or virus protection.  How can I temporarily turn off my firewall and/or virus protection so Carbonite can upload all the data on my Mac?  How will Carbonite be able to periodically upload my data when my firewall and virus protection are back on?

    Watch out with Carbonite!
    I found that it is not able to return many of the database for Apple products are not returned in a usable format.
    I highly recommend that if you are going to use Carbonite that you test everything before commiting to it as your backup solution.

  • Kids are using the WiFi all night long and not sleeping... How can I temporarily turn off the WiFi at night using the Airport Extream or Airport Utility?  I must keep the guest network up as I have a tenant in an apartment over my garage using that.

    My kids are up all night streaming Netflix and using the WiFi on their iPads and Apple TV. The next day they don't want to get up and go to school. Is there a way I can set up a separate access point for just the kids in AirPort Extreme and then turn that one off when i go to bed? Or somehow turn off the main network when I go to bed, without having to reconfigure the entire router the next day, and then simply turn it back on the next morning?  I have to keep the Guest Network up as I have a paying tenant living in an apartment over my garage that uses that network.
    In the event it's not possible with the AirPort Extreme, any other suggestions would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    You can configure the AirPort Extreme for Timed Access using the AirPort Utility. Basically what you are doing is restricting the time of a wireless device by its MAC address has access to the base station's wireless network.
    To access this feature: AirPort Utility > Select the Extreme > Edit > Network tab > Enable Access Control: Timed Access Control...

  • TS3999 How can I restore an earlier iCal version from iCloud?

  • How do I permanently turn off fullscreen view in safari?

    How do I permanently turn off fullscreen view in Safari?  I never want my menubar to autohide and it has been doing so since the last update.  Once I click on the little blue arrows at the top right of the screen, it is temporarily fixed but then resets to fullscreen when I re-open Safari.

    Thaty is quite odd behavior as I have never seen that happen
    in any Safari version since full screen was added to OSX.
    It almost sounds as if the preference file for Safari may be
    corrupted or some other setting file.  However, before messing
    with that, export your bookmarks (File->Export Bookmarks...)
    so you can retrieve them and under the Safari menu, select reset
    Safari.  If this doesn't resolve things, and since you saved your
    bookmarks, in Finder hold down Option key and on the Go menu
    select library.  In the Preferences folder, find:
    com.apple.Safari.plist
    and move it to Desktop or trash it.  Next time Safari opens it
    will recreate the file and see if this fixes the issue.

  • Is it possible to temporarily turn off receiving group messaging?  If so what will the people sending the message see?

    Is it possible to temporarily turn off receiving group messaging?  If so what will the people sending the message see?

    Welcome to the discussions!
    Is it possible to temporarily turn off the wireless signal being emitted from an Airport Extreme whilst still remaining connected to the internet via ethernet? If so, what do you need to do to turn off the wireless signal?
    Open AirPort Utility - Click Manual Setup
    Click the Wireless tab located just under the row of icons
    Wireless Mode = None
    Update to save your new settings
    You can reverse the process to turn the wireless back on when you are ready.
    Also, how strong is the wireless signal? If placed in a basement of a residential property, is it likely that the signal would reach two floors above?
    It's just not possible to accurately predict wireless performance in advance for any installation. A guess would be that the signal will be very weak, and likely unusable, but you won't know for sure until you try it out in your house.

  • How do I completely turn off iPhone backups to my Mac?

    How do I completely turn off iPhone backups to my Mac?  I have an MBP with a 250 GB SSD running Mountain Lion that I use primarly for work and I'm getting low on disk space.  I'm having a clear out and I noticed that my iPhone and iPad back ups use about 20 gigs which is too much. Neither carries important data and my phone photos are already covered by iPhoto auto backing up to a remote library. I don't want to pay for an iCoud account. Any ideas?

    You need to sync your iPhone contacts with the Address Book on your Mac, which is as designed and intended.
    Before the first sync for this data, enter one contact in the Address Book on your Mac. Make this contact up if needed, which can be deleted later. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync for this data, which you want to select.
    Syncing contacts with the Address Book is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
    The same applies before syncing calendar events with iCal if you aren't using iCal on your Mac for calendar events.

  • How can I turn off the sound from the original midi  or audio tracks when I turned on the duplicate tracks for editing ?

    How can I turn off the sound from the original midi or audio tracks when I edit or listen to the duplicate tracks in Logic Pro 9 ?
    I'm using iMac desktop with Mac OS X Version 10.7.3. Pls advise.

    Dan,
    It sounds like one of your preferences has changed.
    Go to preferences > audio > general, and make sure "track mute/solo" is set to "CPU saving (slow response)". It is probably set to "Fast " at the moment.
    This setting (fast) basically causes immediate muting from the channel strip while your song is in play. This is because the audio is still being read from the hard drive, but the channel strip is simply muted.... like a hardware mixer. When set to "CPU saving", the audio from that track, when muted, is actually stopped from streaming from the hard drive, but there is a couple second delay before the audio is actually muted.
    One would think that the fast setting is generally preferable, except when you need to do what you are doing. The only way to keep duplicate copies of channel strips acting independent of one another is to leave this setting on the "CPU saving" setting.
    Hope that helps

  • How do you turn off the letters from the password showing as you type them?

    I have been trying to use my ipad for presentations and other expanded collaborative uses where my screen is public. Unfortunately, this is hindered because the letters of the password show as letters when the password is being typed in.  It is not reasonable to constantly go into the settings and turn passwords on and off when needing to interactively use the ipad in a collaborative setting.  How is this feature turned off?  Why is there in the first place?  Is there a plan to fix it with the next update.

    The "more like this" window gave me the answers.  No current ability to turn off.  I've submitted a request to add this feature.

    Some folks have discovered that changing their DNS service fixes FaceTime connection issues.
    The ideal way is to configure your modem/router with DNS service, but often settings in System Preferences/Network/Advanced/DNS on your Mac will override the router settings. Try either of these;
    OpenDNS
    208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220
    Google Public DNS
    8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4
