How do I turn off the downloads window?

How do I turn off the downloads window? I recently upgraded FF, hated the new one, so downgraded back. When I upgraded I got the new downloads ribbon at the bottom of the screen and no longer had the downloads window. However, for whatever reason I decided to turn the window on. But when I downgraded I realized that this interferes with programs that I had previously set up to download directly to a certain program. Bottom line... I do NOT want the downloads window.

I know you can go to Tools, then Options, and click the Downloads tab and configure how you want it that way. Do you have the Download Manager Tweak as an add on?

    To not display the built-in Firefox downloads window, Tools > Options > General tab, un-check "Show the <u>D</u>ownloads window when downloading a file". See: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Options+window+-+General+panel

  • How do I turn off the multiple windows aero peek feature for CS5 on Windows 7?

    I'm not sure if this only happens with floated windows but in Photoshop CS5, when I have multiple files open, each one of those files have their own windows open on the Windows 7 taskbar. I'd like it all to be combined as one like how it was in CS4. I searched through the preferences and couldn't find anything related to this problem. Does anybody know how I can turn this off?

    function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}

    When I first loaded Win7, I went over the GUI changes from XP (I passed on ever using Vista) carefully.
    Out of curiosity, how long ago was that?  I'm guessing not long.
    That you chose not to use Vista is also part of the problem.  Many things in Windows 7's UI are evolved from Vista's changes.  You're viewing Windows 7 from the perspective of one who has changed suddenly from XP, and that is no doubt a shock.
    You also expect it to be a system that facilitates work, and that's a fundamental problem.  Windows is now first and foremost an entertainment vehicle for the masses.  Those of us wanting to use it for real work have to work at it to tune it up for that task.
    If you sense the resource usage of Windows 7 Aero then quite possibly your computer isn't up to the task.  When run with a good video interface Aero becomes smooth and instantly responsive, and that (with a few tweaks besides) actually makes using Windows quite a pleasure.  It definitely can be made to get out of the way and lets you concentrate on the work.
    The basic trouble is, Microsoft doesn't make changing to any new version of their operating system an easy task...
    As a career computer/software engineer, I chose to understand Windows 7 from the inside-out (for the first time ever I ran the beta versions in a virtual machine, to get used to it).  I've had to find dozens of tweaks and turn off a number of things that shouldn't be running.
    AFTER ALL THAT I can say Windows 7 is a dynamite system, that often outperforms XP (both in compute power and in UI performance).  And it's more stable than any version of Windows to date.
    I can only encourage you to stay with it.  It may take a year or more, but it really does grow on you.  On my main Windows 7 workstation I run virtual machines with XP and Vista almost daily for development testing, so I haven't forgotten their UIs, and I sure would never want to go back!

  • How do I turn off the auto window arranging?

    I have a dual monitor system, and whenever I drag a floating
    window (usually the Code Inspector) to the main display, it docks
    and fills up the whole screen, and then I have to drag it back off.
    I have to be very careful not to drag the window within about 600
    pixels of the screen edge, so it doesn't attach itself.
    I couldn't find anything in the Preferences or window context
    menus to turn off this "feature". Is there a way?

    I've got options for 2, 5, 10, 15 minutes and Never. Have you got an Exchange email account on your iPad ? 'Never' can be removed so as to protect a company's potentially sensitive email - they may not want the iPad being left/stolen with the emails on it accessible. If you remove the account the Never option will probably reappear

  • How do I turn off the feature that allows the duplication of App downloads to more than one phone? As in my wife downloads an app and I get a dulpicate download on my phone.

    How do I turn off the feature that allows the duplication of App downloads to more than one phone? As in my wife downloads an app and I get a dulpicate download on my phone.

    To disable that feature it will depend on whether or not you sync everything in the cloud using Apple's iCloud, OR if you both use the same desktop/laptop computer with iTunes. Here is a link to the Apple support page in regards to the automatic download feature included with your iPhone and corresponding softwares such as iTunes.

    Follow those instructions and it will all be taken care of.

  • ITunes U: how do I turn off the 50 MB download limit for mobile data connections?

    Since I rarely have access to Wi-Fi networks I do actually want to download iTunes U content using mobile data. Videos (and even some slide decks) exceed the 50 MB limit that iTunes U will allow you to download over mobile data connections. How do I turn off the 50 MB download limit for mobile data connections?

    You can't unless the phone is jailbroken (which in turn voids your warranty)

  • How do I turn off the automated Adobe Cloud ID window that opens everytime I turn on my computers.  Do NOT subscribe to CC. HELP.

    How do I turn off the automated Adobe Cloud ID window that opens every time I turn on my computers.  I want this annoying window to stop appearing.  I do not and will not subscribe to "Adobe Cloud" but the program (all 197 MB) somehow found it's way onto both my computers.  Nefarious at the least.
    I'm afraid to uninstall the "adobe cloud" programs from my computers because I fear that they are linked to my stand alone version of cs6 and my somehow corrupt the operation of my cs6. 
    HELP.  PLEASE.

    Have you installed any trial of Adobe CC because in all probability the auto prompt to purchase CC appears when the trial run ends.?
    The stand alone version of CS6 is not going to be affected if you uninstall the trial CC.

  • How can I turn off the "Free Subscription is ending in X days" pop-up. I bought the subscription and downloaded it. I'm using the paid version.  It all appears to be working accept for the silly pop-up.

    How can I turn off the "Free Subscription is ending in X days pop-up. I bought my subscription but still receive the notice.

    Hi Carl,
    Is it the Acrobat trial that's ending? (Adobe doesn't offer free subscriptions that expire after a set time.)
    If you're referring to the Acrobat trial, have you logged in with your Adobe ID and password? If not, click License this Software in the pop-up that states the trial is ending soon, and then log in with your credentials, and you should be set.
    Please let us know if that is not the case.
    Best,

    What OS X version are you using?
    Can you take a screenshot of the pop-up notification?
    To take a screenshot hold ⌘ Shift 4 to create a selection crosshair. Click and hold while you drag the crosshair over the area you wish to capture and then release the mouse button. You will hear a "camera shutter" sound. This will deposit a screenshot on your Desktop.
    If you can't find it on your Desktop look in your Documents or Downloads folder.
    If you want to attach a screenshot to a response here, click the "camera" icon above the text field:
    This will display a dialog box which enables you to choose the screenshot file (remember it's on your Desktop) and click the Insert Image button.
    ⌘ Shift 4 and then pressing the space bar captures the window the cursor is on.
    ⌘ Shift 3 captures the entire screen.
