  • In Logic, how can I turn off the prompt asking if I want to use airplay.

    Sorry if I have missed the obvious, but regularly during a session i get these prompts and they are interupting my workflow. I have looked around and have been unable to sort this out .
    Thanks in advance.

    It's a minor bug in OS X /Logic that at the moment, can be quite annoying.... and was supposed to be ficxed in Logic 9,1.8 but for some, this hasn't proven to be the case.
    The only solution at the moment, until a new update is released to fix this once and for all... is to either
    a) Turn off your WiFi on your Mac
    or....
    b) Turn off your Apple TV (or put your Apple TV on a different WiFi network to your Mac)
    I had this bug myself but after turning off WiFi and using my Ethernet connection instead, (Thankfully I had a choice)  I haven't been bothered by it since.

  • TS3988 How do I turn off iCloud and go back to the way I had it before?

    I am unhappy with iCloud for a number of reasons. I want to go back to backing up my music to an external HD, storing music on my devices, and turn off iCloud.
    How do I turn off iCloud? I have iTunes on a PC.
    THANKS

    Current Firefox versions remember the download directory based upon the URL, so if the URL changes then the default folder may be chosen if there hasn't been selected a download folder before for that server.

    Bug 536503 - Last downloaded-to directory should be remembered on a site-by-site basis
    Firefox 11 will have a workaround by providing a pref (browser.download.lastDir.savePerSite) to disable this feature.

  • How do I turn off icloud on my iphone 4s? Can I still use Find My Phone?

    How do I turn off icloud on my iphone 4s?
    Can I still use Find My Phone?

    You cannot use Find My iPhone without iCloud.
    If you want to sign off of your iCloud account on your iPhone, you go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and sign out. It will ask for your password so it can turn off Find My iPhone before removing the iCloud account from your device.
    Cheers,

  • How can I turn off iCloud without losing my documents?

    How can I turn off iCloud without losing my documents?
    When I try to sign out Icloud I get the warning (( If you turn off Documents & Data, all documents stored in Icloud will be removed from this Mac))
    I don,t want to remove my document on my computer, what should I do? 

    If you are refering to documents such as Pages and Numbers files....
    The only way around this is to "save as" you icloud documents using the associated app to a local folder on your mac.  Then turn off icloud.
    Of course, when you sign off of icloud, the docs are removed from the mac, but remain in icloud.  In the future when you sign back in, the documents are available to you again.
    Oh, and the icloud documents are also stored locally in ...
    ~/Library/Mobile Documents
    Note that Library in the user's home folder is now hidden, so you'll have to set Finder to view hidden files.
    The Mobile Documents folder has subfolder where copies of the doc/data files are stored.
    You can move these files to another folder to save them.

  • How do I turn off icloud for my music in iphone?

    how do I turn off icloud for my music in iphone?

    What exactly do you mean here...there's really nothing to turn on/off. Your purchased music is simply available for download, directly on your device, if not already on your device. If you don't want to download it, then don't.

    WE are travelling and it seems every time I want to listen to music it's on iCloud and not my device. I find a wifi connection and download the songs them bam next time they are back on iCloud!
    iTunes purchases are always on iCloud. They don't get uploaded there. They are simply there because you purchased them.
    When you first purchqse, iTunes (computer or phone) should download them. If they are not downloaded, you will see the cloud icon.

  • How do I turn off iCloud Drive?

    I don't like the idea of all my docs in the cloud.  I want to stop the syncing and just keep the docs on my computer.  However, when I try to turn off iCloud Drive it tells me that I'm going to be deleting everything from my Mac!  How do I stop iCloud Drive but keep my files secure in my Mac?

    The logic is that iCloud Drive is a hub for data shared among your devices, and the assumption is that if you delete something, you want it deleted. And practically, your file is treated as if the Drive copy is the only one. The Drive system may cache a copy on your device to allow easy, quick access, but the master copy is the one in the cloud. Delete the master copy and the cached copies have no "parent" and no way of maintaining any kind of sync.
    It's similar to using a corporate network drive to get access to your files from anywhere. Delete a file without making a local copy and it's no longer accessible.
