How Do You Filter, Or Stop Automatic Updates From Windows or HP to a Windows 8, 2000 Notebook PC.

I would like to know how I can see automatic updates from Windows or HP before they go into my computer?  The reason is, is that these auto updates mess up my IE and my printer software.  I have a HP 2000 Notebook PC, Windows 8, 64 bit.  I would like to be able to filter or see these updates before they go in my computer.  Is there anything I can do, or a setting I can set?
Thanks,
Susie

  • How do you configure a client to update from the server

    I found the information on how to point clients to a software update server but the problem I have is the URL.
    The example is http://su.example.com:8088/index.sucatalog
    I don't have a URL as far as I know and if I did, is the default port 8088 or where can I change or check that?
    And where is a list of the catalog file for the specific versions of OS X?
    Basically I have 8 Macs all running Yosemite except for one running 10.8.5. Instead of all the machines hitting the internet for updates, I'd like just my server to down the updates and then all clients update from the server.
    If there is better instructions on how to do this, please point the way.
    TIA
    Chris

    This does mean you need to buy a DNS load balancer to do this. The Mac itself cannot.
    FWIW, OS X Server is capable of performing round-robin access with the inbound traffic using multiple IP addresses for a single host name.  The addresses are each of the software update servers in your server pool.
    This'll toss errors for some translations when one of the servers is down — you can tweak the definition if one of the servers is going to be offline for a while — but some of the updates will get through.
    Set the DNS TTL fairly short — probably somewhere between a few minutes and an hour — to allow the DNS translations to be changed fairly quickly, if your software update servers are prone to outages.

  • How do you get rid of the updates from the App Store

    Hi I'm trying to figure out how to get rid of the already downloaded updates? I don't like them being there and can't seem to get it to go away. Is there a way to do this please let me know. Thanks a lot.

    You can't get rid of it.
    It will start dropping the earlier updates after about two weeks (first in first out)

  • HT4913 How do you then download all the songs from icloud to itunes? I have over 2000 songs and don't fancy clicking one at a time..

    Thanks for all the help in advance!

    On your PC, create a playlist called something like "Touch"
    Add everything you want to download to your touch to the playlist.
    Wait a minute or two and then open the music App on your touch.
    Find the playlist and scroll to the bottom.
    Click "Download All"

    You have 10.6 on that machine, I suggest you stick with it for performance, third party hardware and software reasons as long as possible.
    Consider 10.8 (not 10.7) when it's released, because 10.7 and 10.8 will require a new investment in software and newer third party hardware as it requires newer drivers the old machines won't have. (forced upgrade because of software, really nice of them)

    Far as your Safari problem do these things until it's resolved:
    1: Software Update fully under the Apple menu.
    2: Check the status of your plug-ins and update (works for all browsers) also install Firefox and see if your problems continue. You should always have at least two browsers on the machine just in case one fails.

  • How do I stop automatic updates of my apps??

    I am sooooo angry. When I leave updates untouched it is because I do NOT want to update that app! Most recently I DID NOT want to update iBook. I'd read how ugly it was and I wanted to keep my existing version. But today, I noted that it had been automatically updated and guess what it is every bit as ugly as reported. I am fuming. Surely Apple will allow me to have SOME control over my own device?!
    Any help in stopping automatic updates on my iPad apps is much appreciated!

    First of all, note that apps are automatically updated only in iOS 7.
    If you are running iOS 7, open Settings > iTunes & App Store, and turn off "Updates" under "Automatic Downloads"

  • Safari RSS Stopped Automatically Updating!

    Hi,
    I've been using Leopard since November 2007. For some reason, all of my RSS Feeds have stop automatically updating themselves.
    If I go to Check for updates, it's set to every hour, just like it always has been. If I change it to anything else, THEN the latest RSS articles automatically download, but I keep having to manually switch the setting, in order to get any new RSS updates.
    Anyway, have any suggestions?

    Hi
    Look again in the Syndications folder. The system requires the database3 file to accumulate feed information.
    Other preference files: move these two preference files in your User Library>Preferences to the desktop:
    com.apple.SyndicationAgent.plist and
    com.apple.Syndication.plist
    Restart Safari. Again, watch the feed number for a change.
    If no change, try Safari from another User Account. For purposes of simplicity, after creating the new account, go to your regular User Account>Library>Safari folder. There, holding the option key, move the Bookmarks.plist file to the Public>Drop Box folder in the same user account. Then, after you log-in to the new account, go to the Public>Drop Box in that account. There, move the Bookmarks.plist file to the User Library>Safari folder. This way, when you open Safari, you'll have the same bookmarks file as used in your regular user account.
    Also, make sure you enable the feeds in Safari Preferences>RSS.

    Thanks,

    If there is a way to automatically open an attached file in a Mail item, it is not one that I would use, because I want to stay in control of my Mac!  Who is it from, whats in it and so on... To me bad idea but then the choice is yours.

  • How do you filter an email search (ie: Subject or From) in iOS 7?

    How do you filter an email search (ie: Subject or From) in iOS 7?

    Hello dh1316
    The way iOS 7 searches email has changed. I have made an excerpt of the new way search works.
    iPhone User Guide
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
    Search for a message. Scroll to or tap the top of the messages list to reveal the search field. You can search the current mailbox, or all mailboxes at once. Searching looks at the address fields, the subject, and the message body.
    Search by timeframe. Scroll to or tap the top of the messages list to reveal the search field, then type something like “February meeting” to find all messages from February with word “meeting.”
    Search by message state. To find all flagged, unread messages from people in your VIP list, type “flag unread vip.” You can also search for other message attributes, such as “attachment.”
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Where or how do you get the 2.0 update?

    I got the latest version of itunes, the latest version of software for ipod touch but I still can't find the "APPS" tab in the preferences setting. How do you get the 2.0 update? I had the same problem with the other update when I first bought this thing. Apple is really ******* me off.

    Ya know i would just wait because they dont HAVE to release it today, tommorow, or in the next year if they want too. Maybe they have a new idea and want to add that so you need to be patient... i know we were all dissapointed when i didnt come out in june but just shut your virtual mouth and wait!
    Take a chill pill and relax...
    Just a few more hours...
