How do I turn off list formatting in Notes app?

I want the Notes app to function as a plain text editor.
But I was experimenting with formatting & selected "Insert Numbered List" from the "Format" menu. Now I can't turn it off!
E.g. any time I enter "1) " as the begining of a line, Notes indents & converts it to a non-editable list item ("1."). But I'm writing to paste into a forum that only accepts plain text, so this is useless. Plus, I want the parenthesis. If I copy & paste, the numbers don't even come over!
"Jane, stop this crazy thing!"

To make your user library visible, hold down the option key while using the Finder "Go To Folder" command. Enter ~/Library.
If you prefer to make your user library permanently visible, use the Terminal command found below.

You might want to bookmark the command. I had to use it again after I installed 10.8.2. I have also been informed that if you drag the user library to Finder it will remain visible.

Pages: how do I turn off auto formatting and auto indenting!

I've got Pages 5.2.2 and for the life of me can't figure out how to turn off auto formatting!
When I hit return to move text to a new line, Pages automatically indents the new line, creating a new paragraph which is not what I want at all.
I'm using a blank template and have not altered the default settings at all. Any geniuses out there who can help?

If not already present, turn on your document rulers via View > Show Rulers. Does a ¯ symbol appear by itself, or is it accompanied by an inverted triangle below it? The first symbol indicates that you have a First Indent set to other than 0. The inverted triangle says that you also have the Left indent set to the First indent amount.
In Pages, if a First indent is set, any hard return will invoke a new paragraph with an auto-indent corresponding to the First Indent amount. First lines will be indented, and subsequent lines are flush left margin (unless Left indent is not 0). In word processing, we only do hard returns when we deliberately want a new paragraph. If you want to force an end of a sentence, without forming a new paragraph, with/out auto-indent effect, use either shift+enter, or control+enter.
The First, and Left indent settings in Pages v5.2.2 are here:
Toolbar > Format > Text > Layout

How can I turn off the monitor but not the computer on my touchsmart 310..

I leave my computer on at night to keep wireless network going, but I want to turn off just the monitor. All of the advice I've seen is to turn off the touchscreen feature -not the monitor itself. Thank you.

You can set the timing for the display to turn off.
Try this:
Click:
Start.
Control Panel.
Hardware and Sound.
Power Options.
On the left bar you'll find Choose when to turn off the display.
At Turn off the display: there is a drop dowm menu to choose the number of minutes before the display turns off. Make your selection.
Try that and see if it works for you.
I hope this is what you were looking for,

How do I turn off auto-formatting {Bullets} in Word Processing mode

Go to *Pages Preferences* (Command–,) and under the Auto-Correction tab, deselect the checkbox beside *Automatically detect list* option. Close the preferences dialog box, and you will have no headache thereafter.

How does one turn off the format column as the default

I would like to have the Format sidebar "off" as the default when opening Numbers. How can I do this?

I am not aware this is possible. I tried saving a document where I had turned off the sidebar as a template and when I opened the template the sidebar was still visible.

HOW do I turn off SQL Formatting for existing objects?

SQL Developer's formatting does not match mine and is driving me mad.
My version is 2.1.1.64.
I create a view, I run it in a database, I look at in in SQL Developer ...
The SQL tab shows everything every which way.
I have tried all the options.
ALL I WANT is to see the code just as I ENTERED IT ...
Instead, I get all my column names in quotes (I HATE quotes!!!!!!!)
and it aligns things, no matter how I tell it to turn off stuff.
I want to see ...
create or replace view XYZ (Col1, col1, col3 ... coln) as
select a.yadda, zeda,
(select b.yadda_desc from somewhere where b.yadda=a.yadda) as col3,
something_else, ... more things as col N
from somewhere a
where something=true;
BUT INSTEAD I SEE THIS ...
create or replace view "schema"."XYZ" ("Col1", "col1", "col3" ... "coln") as
select a.yadda, zeda,
(select b.yadda_desc
from somewhere
where b.yadda=a.yadda
) as col2, something_else,
... more things as Col N
from somewhere a
where something=true;
and it insists on wrapping the columns and subselects and function calls in some willy-nilly way.
I just want it to stop .... no quotes, no schema, wrap the text the way I entered it.
How can I get it to do that?
Please help me, please ...

Hi
I'm having the exact same problem with SQL Dev 2.1.64
Don't recall this ever happening before, looked through all possible options/preferences and no luck.
I completely agree, this default formatting really gets on your nerves specially if your source is quite large and you need to preserve the code formatting in a very structured and clear way!.Anyone found out how to prevent this? im considering rolling back to one of the not so stable previous versions.
E.g... i compile it like this
SELECT DISTINCT
F.DEVICE,
SUBSTR(F.PROD_TYPE,1,6) B_TYPE,
F.INBOUND_BNR BNR_INBOUND,
F.COUNTRY_OF_ORIGIN
FROM (SELECT DISTINCT C.LOT AS LOT,
c.inbound_bnr AS inbound_bnr,
C.PROD_TYPE AS PROD_TYPE,
FROM (SELECT DISTINCT
A.TRANS_DATE AS TRANSD,
a.lot_number AS lot,
a.quantity_1 AS waf_qty,
and after compiling i get this
SELECT DISTINCT F.DEVICE DEVICE, -- ' ' DEVICE,
SUBSTR(F.PROD_TYPE,1,6) B_TYPE,
F.INBOUND_BNR BNR_INBOUND,
FROM
(SELECT DISTINCT C.LOT AS LOT,
C.WAF_QTY AS WAF_QTY,
c.die_qty AS die_qty,
FROM
(SELECT DISTINCT A.TRANS_DATE AS TRANSD,
a.lot_number AS lot,
a.quantity_1 AS waf_qty,
FROM sf_movem_move a,
(SELECT DISTINCT pred_bnr_1 AS labbnr,
PRED_BNR_1 AS INBB,
bnr AS outbb,

How do we turn off list of updated apps in iOS 7 App Store?

In previous version of iOS, after you updated apps in the App Store, the Updates tab in the App Store would go blank until there were more updates. But now, the Updates tab shows a list of apps that were updated and it sorts by date. Anytime I go in there, it makes it look like there are a bunch of updates to install. Is there a way to turn this off so that it only shows apps that need updating, not the apps that have been updated already?

I guess I've personally never needed to know when I updated an app or to have a list of apps I've updated. Wouldn't this be a problem in the future when you have years of updates to scroll through? It just seems like that would unnecessarily increase the load time of the Updates tab. It would still be nice to have an option to turn that off or at least make it a collapsible menu item or something.
I could see where it might come in handy if you have the automatic app updates turned on, but I have that turned off since I like to see what changes an app is making before I install it, so I don't need that turned on since I manually update my apps.

How do I turn off automatic formatting of JSP pages

Whenever I drop a component into my JSP from the component pallete JDeveloper automatically formats some "seemingly" random part of the page. This is very annoying since I spent time formatting the code the way I like it and then it's just re-written.
I really want to turn this option off since it makes the pages almost unreadable, especially if you have a small print margin set.
Help????

I answered my own question. What I found happening was that every time I pasted into my JSP page the code seemed to be reformatted. What really was happening was that the indentation was being adjusted and the line formatted to fit within the specified right margin.
If you go to Preferences|Code Editor and check off 'Adjust Indentation When Pasting' and 'Reformat Code Block When Pasting' this behavior goes away and the document stay's pretty much intact. It seems to be a good idea to increase the right margin also.
The only formatting that occurs now is for the line you pasted and any lines below the pasted line are moved up under the pasted line.
This change at least minimizes modifications so that if multiple developers make changes any code merges are reasonable.

How can I turn off auto formatting whilst working in the SQL Worksheet?

Hope you can help with a quick question.
Is it possible to stop the auto formatting of SQL statements in the SQL worksheet?

I am using SQL Developer 2.1.1.64
Thanks in advance

Have fun,

How do I switch off the Genius for iPad App Store?

How do I turn off the Genius for iPad App Store. Its recomendations are very poor.

I don't believe there's a way to "turn it off", per se. Can you not just not tap the Genius button? Unless I'm missing something, that's the only way you see Genius recommendations in the iPad's App Store app.
BTW, questions about the iPad will generally get the quickest and most applicable responses if posted in the iPad forums.
Regards.

How can I turn off Recently Websites when opening new Safari window? After tapping on the two overlapping boxes on the bottom right of Safari, a new blank window appears with Favorites, but now in iOS 8, recently viewed websites are listed.

How can I turn off Recently Visited Websites when opening new Safari window?
After tapping on the two overlapping boxes on the bottom right of Safari, a new blank window appears with Favorites, but now in iOS 8, recently viewed websites are listed. How can I turn this function off? I do NOT want my new Safari windows to have history displayed of previous websites I visited. I only want my Favorites (on the top) to be displayed. Please help.
Thank you for your time, patience, understanding, kindness, and concern.

Thanks for replying, but that isn't the answer I am looking for. Also, there is no + sign, UNLESS you do tap the overlapping boxes.
Let me try to ask my question a little more clearly:
When I tap the two overlapping boxes on the lower left (the option to Open New Windows), the new Window that appears will show your Bookmarked FAVORITES. But with my new iPhone 6, and the new iOS 8.0.2, when I tap the two boxes to open a New Window, my Bookmark Favorites show (as they always have and should), but below them, there is a dividing line underneath them, and it says Recently Viewed Websites, and has these websites available to tap.
So my question is, HOW DO I TURN THESE OPTION OFF?
*UPDATE (10.13.14): Since I have asked this question, I no longer see these Recently Viewed Websites under my Bookmarked Favorites in my new Window tabs. So I hope that Apple fixed it, or somehow it was a mistake, or somehow I changed an Option on my iPhone 6 that stopped this for reoccurring.
Thank you for your help bobseufert! I appreciate your concern, kindness, and the time to try to help. I am grateful.
Have a blessed day.
