How do I turn off the time? The lock screen appears each time I open the smart cover.

No matter which app I'm in, when I open the smart cover, the lock screen with the time shows. This is on an iPad Air
On my iPad Mini, it goes right to the app and skips the lock screen.
It's sure nicer not to be reminded what time it is in the middle of the night--and not have the brighter lock screen flashed!

Appreciate the reply. The settings are identical, so that's not it! I do not use the pass code lock, in any event. The behavior I'm describing is, in fact, turns out to be unrelated to the lock settings!
It depends upon whether an alert has occurred after the last time you closed the cover! In iOS 7, that will show the lock/unlock screen with the alert when you next open the cover. In iOS 6, more properly, it will show the alert over the screen you were last looking at--no lock screen at all.
On our iPad Mini, iOS 6, we do not use the calendar, so no alerts, and we never see the lock screen or its glaring time (count me among those who would rather not know it's 3am when I decide to read in the middle of the night!) On the Air, we return to where we left off if there hasn't been an alert--but to the lock screen if there has been one!
Truly wish that Apple would give us options as to displaying the time or not--on the lock screen and on the status bar!

How can I turn off Keychain from asking for my password EVERY time I check for mail?

how can I turn off Keychain from asking for my password EVERY time I check for mail?
This is really driving me nuts.....
Thanks

Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Security & Privacy, and then click General.
Open the General pane of Security & Privacy preferences
2. Select “Require password...NEVER after sleep or screen saver begins.” You can adjust the amount of delay before a password is required in the pop-up menu.
From what I am aware, you cannot turn off the keychain.
I hope this helps.

Turn off message preview on lock screen

Hi,
I've found some archived threads on this subject, but with no real answers on them.
iOS's "Messages" app allows you to choose wether to show (or not) the contents of a received message on a lockscreen notification.
How can I confiure that in skype? I'm just finding an option to disable lock screen notifications altogether which is far from useful.
Thank you
p.s.: I'm using iOS 8.x

Hi , I have the same promblem. Can anyone tell me how to turn off prieview message in locked screen on my iphone 6,

Turn off email preview on lock screen not working

In Settings > Notifications > Mail I have Show on Lock Screen OFF and Show Previews OFF for all of my email accounts. Yet I'm still getting email notifications WITH previews of the email content on my Lock Screen in iOS 8.1.3. I tried turning the switch on and off and restarting my iPad Air 2 without affecting this issue.
I could turn Push off and go Manual, but I'd like to have Push on and be notified that an email has come in just without the Preview showing on my Lock Screen.

Hi , I have the same promblem. Can anyone tell me how to turn off prieview message in locked screen on my iphone 6,

HOW DO YOU TURN OFF "FIREFOX PREVENTED THIS PAGE FROM AUTOMATICALLY RELOADING". I did the "see Advanced - General - Accessiblity. and still having problems

HOW DO YOU TURN OFF "FIREFOX PREVENTED THIS PAGE FROM AUTOMATICALLY RELOADING". I did perform the "see Advanced - General - Accessibility. It worked for me and my "user" site (don't know how to say my site) and still having problems with my wife's. I have gone to OPTIONS → GONE TO → ADVANCE and CLICKED THE LINE → ""Warn me when websites try to redirect or reload the page…""
This did not rememdy the problem. I did try to get on the other site suggested
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Accessibility.blockautorefresh
but got a 404 error...
I have googled the "ff prevented...." and after a number of hours searching I still have not found a fix...
REALLY HOPE SOMEONE CAN HELP ME....
JM

You should still disable this setting:
*Firefox > Options/Preferences > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"
The setting in "Options > Advanced > General" is meant as an accessibility feature, as you can see by the label of that section, so that people with disabilities or people who use screen readers do not get confused and is not meant as a safety protection to stop redirecting.
What is the value of the accessibility.blockautorefresh pref on the about:config page?
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/accessibility.blockautorefresh
If you have problems with preferences, see:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
*Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

How do i turn off TFS adding bulds to Global List? and or to the "Found In" drop down in work items?

We do not use the standard TFS build definitions in our drop downs, and have scripted updating the global list with our standard build numbers. However, we get both the TFS builds and our build numbers in the "Found In" field of work items. How
do I disable TFS automatically adding the "Builds - " list into the "Found In" field Rules? and or updating the Global List?

Hi CRHill,
Thanks for your post.
What’s the version of your TFS Server?
What’s the “not use the standard TFS Build definitions in our drop downs” mean?
You’re using the TFS Build Definition to build your solution but not use the default TFS build process template in it?
If you don’t use TFS build definitions to build your solution, how the TFS builds’ numbers be generated and added in team project Global list?
As far as I know all the completed TFS build numbers will be added in to team project Global list by default, and there’s no a default way to turn off that in TFS Server. Please refer to the workaround in this article:

How do I turn off Adobe Flash - too many sites have Flash Advertisements which slow the browser to less than a crawl.

Some pages have 3, 4, 5 or more adobe flash advertisements running at the same time, which slows the browser down tremendously. Then, if you happen to have multiple tabs open, the browser crawls to a virtual standstill, and many times, stops responding at all.
I would like to be able to choose whether or not a page can run flash content - not have it be something that runs all the time for every page, with the only option being to kill the plugincontainer process in taskmanager - which kills even the Adobe Flash items you might want to view; such as a youtube video.
Why is there not a way to turn Adobe Flash off in the browser? I have updated both Firefox and Adobe Flash but nowhere is there an option for turning it on or off depending on your needs.
Can a control be added to the Internet Options, that you can set, to have a page ask before it is allowed to run Flash Content? Having that kind of control would GREATLY enhance the enjoyment of browsing multiple pages.
Any information on how to do this, would be appreciated.

That seems to have done the trick. Thank you.
I guess it would have been too simple for it to have the same name. I was looking for Adobe Flash, whereas Firefox's add-ons manager page calls it Shockwave Flash.
Kind of hard to see an orange when the only label the box has is grape. :)
I truly appreciate your help.

How do I turn off sharing? My iMac is listed 8 times/

Hi
This just started recently. my iMac is listed 8 times under sharing in the finder. I don't know what happened but it's starting to cause problems.
The only things that have changed recently is I upgraded to Yosemite but that was working fine. I just bought a new iPad but that connects through iTunes. I never clicked to share anything.
At home here we have 6 computers. 1 PC is my son's, one PC Laptop is my wife's. Both of those are only connected to WiFi for the internet. In my office I have my main iMac for internet and daily work, my Mac Pro which I only boot when I'm doing video work, my Mac Book Pro which I use rarely now that I don't shoot video in the field and 1 old HP. These are all connect to my network Hard Wired to my Airport Extreme plus a wireless Canon Printer. When any or all of these in my office are up and running I see them in the Finder (NOT under Sharing) and I can swap files between them.
Here's a screen-shot of my finder window.
I have to get rid of all those duplicate "ghost" version of my iMac.
Thanks for your help.

GOT IT FIXED! WOW!
I did better than filing a bug report. I went to Apple support, chose chat support. When it wanted $15 or was it $19 I filed an exemption which was a choice on the page, based on the fact that I recently upgraded to Yosemite.
Got the chat fellow and here we go!!!! ;-) First off he sent me this app so he could see my screen. Then he had me do a few things like move the system configuration folder to the desktop and repair permissions. Then he had me reset the SMC and Pram. Nothing helped, all the ghost computers still showed in the finder.
As a last resort he had me reset my Apple Airport Extreme. Wala! Ghost Computers GONE! He said it was a combination of stuff but mainly it was the airport extreme when I installed Yosemite. Something to do with my network. We'll see if it holds or if the problem comes back but as of now there's no more ghost computers in the sharing part of the finder.
Thanks to all who offered suggestions. I hope maybe this helps someone else.

How to initiate numbers? I have iwork 08 screen coming each time and asking for the serial number even if I just bought Numbers and no serial number have been sent to me

I have just bought Numbers and while initiating, a iWork 08 screen is appearing asking for a serial number. I did not get a serial number and I can't work on it... Somebody knows how to go ahead?

Are you planning to continue to use Pages and Keynote from iWork '08 trial ?
If you don't,
Go to my iDisk (address below)
Download :
For_iWork:iWork '09:uninstall iWork '09.zip
Unpack it and run the script to uninstall completely iWork components (it don't delete the documents which you created).
It would also be a good idea to use a maintenance tool like the free Onyx to to clean the LaunchService databases.
http://www.titanium.free.fr/download.php
Take care to download the stable version dedicated to Lion ( it's Onyx 2.4.2)
Then, reinstall Numbers '09 from the MAS. You will not have to pay. The protocol is described in :

Verizon ONT keeps turning off randomly. I must manually reset each time, help!

As the title states, the ONT will randomly turn off, and in order for me to restore TV and internet, I have to unplug the ONT from the wall, unplug the battery backup, plug the battery backup in again, then plug the ONT into the wall.
I have had THREE technicians out this week, each stating they fixed the problem. Alas, each time, a couple hours after they leave, the ONT shuts off again... it is driving me insane, and I am quickly losing my patience. Has anyone experienced this before? Anyone have any tips as to what I should tell the 4th tech to do in order to fix the problem?

Did you restore it as a new phone?
If so, and you're having this issue, best take it to an Apple store to be evaluated. They can test the battery to determine if it's gone bad.

How can I turn off location tracking by Apple?

How can I turn off location tracking by Apple? Is is possible to roll the software back prior to Apple installing location tracking? I am very unhappy with this change by Apple. I know they probably included a reference to it in one of the user agreements, but this should have been clearly stated and offered a way to opt out. Anyway, any help on this would be appreciated.

Yeah, I do see your point. I personally feel perfectly safe using my iPhone wherever I go however I would consider that my usage is a lot less than the average user. I've had the phone for a year and have only made a total of 5 hours worth of calls and have only taken it out of my city one or twice. So for me I don't see any privacy concerns.
From reading the privacy statement though it seems that Apple are adamant that the collection of the geographical data etc is 99% personal information free. They use the term "non-personal information" and for that 1% where someone's personal information does somehow become mingled with their geographical location/movements etc Apple state that this information would be handled as though it was your credit card details or your social security number etc until such time as it's no longer combined.
"If we do combine non-personal information with personal information the combined information will be treated as personal information for as long as it remains combined."
But, I do agree with the fact that Apple really should have made us more aware of this. Instead we have found out through scientists and their research... that, coupled with the fact that no other smartphone collects this information hasn't helped either.
I will continue to use my iPhone as normal though... I am personally confident in Apple's commitment to privacy. I know not all share this view and that's fine. We all have our own perceptions of the implications of technology...
To answer your question about rolling back your software though that can be done. Might be a bit of a headache though and I'm not the best person to help with that. I'm sure there's some good information here though. Good luck!

Can anyone tell me how to stop / turn off my new macbook pro properly?

Hey. Can anyone tell me how to stop / turn off my new macbook pro properly? Every time I want to put away my computer for a while and then restart the computer again at a later time the battery has been used. That is, the computer indicates that I have used battery, even though I put away the computer with 100% charged.

Every time I want to put away my computer for a while
Prior to shutting down, attach the Magsafe. It will prevent your battery from draining while turned off or even sleeping.
is how you shut down properly.

How do I turn off Facebook text messages?

Hello,
I really don't know where to ask this question, so I hope I'm posting it in the right location. I transitioned from the iPhone 3GS to the new iPhone 4S. On my older iPhone, I NEVER received text messages from Facebook (which is a good thing). However, now that I am using the 4S, I am constantly getting bombarded with text messages from Facebook. They are "notifications", ie, when someone posts to my wall or if someone responds to a comment that I made.
I don't know if this is something that is controlled from the Facebook web page (using Safari on my iMac), or if it is controlled from the Facebook app on my iPhone, or if it is controlled from "Settings" or "Notifications" on the iPhone. I have tried all of these places and turned everything off. All notifications for Facebook are in the "OFF" position. I am at my wit's end because this stupid thing is waking me up in the middle of the night with Facebook text messages.
If anyone can help me in finding out how to turn this feature off, I would sure appreciate it. Thanks!

Okay, it has been a few hours and I have not had a single text message from Facebook. WHEW!!
It had to be your suggestion that fixed it. I don't know how I missed turning off that one notification, but I guess that's what did the trick. They have made this notification stuff a bit confusing, becasue there are multiple areas where you can go in and turn stuff on and offf, and you really can't tell what it is you're doing until it's too late.
Thanks again for your help. I will mark this question as "Answered".
