How to disable Faces.

I want to disable Faces.  It is causing problems and I have no need of it.

The following is a partial disablement of Faces.  It prevents iPhoto from creating the many Faces image files and adding to the faces database.  It won't prevent iPhoto from scanning for faces.
1 - open the library like this in the Finder.
2 - in the Database folder move this file to the Trash: Faces.db.
3 - close the package/folder and launch iPhoto.  Close it after a moment.
4 -  open the package, find the new version of the file and lock it via the Info window for the file.
5 - while viewing the contents of the package type Command+F to start a search.
6 - set the criteria of the search to:  Kind is Image and Name Contains "face".
7 - select all of the files in the search results window and drag to the Trash.
8 -close the package and launch iPhoto. 
You will get the faces spinning wheel as it tries to index the library the first time it's opened but it won't be able to write to the database file if you should try to add a face and won't create any new jpeg faces files. Of course make a backup of your library before trying this and no guarantee implied.

  • How to disable faces in iphoto

    I am seeing if there is a terminal command to stop with faces running in iphoto?  It is becoming a storage issue with our student mac books.
    Thank you for your time.

    There is a way to sort of kill Faces and keep iPhoto from creating the small faces image files (and to clean them out of the library).  It won't stop iPhoto from doing scans but after the first scan it's not much of a problem.
    1 - open the library like this in the Finder.
    2 - in the Database folder move this file to the Trash: Faces.db.
    3 - close the package/folder and launch iPhoto.  Close it after a moment.
    4 -  open the package, find the new version of the file and lock it via the Info window for the file.
    5 - while viewing the contents of the package type Command+F to start a search.
    6 - set the criteria of the search to:  Kind is Image and Name Contains "face".
    7 - select all of the files in the search results window and drag to the Trash.

  • How to disable extra visit to portal server

    hi Experts,
    I am using wcp11.1.1.8, in a customized page template with portal builder, I used an EL expression to generate link like this:
    "http://localhost/webcenter/portal/Portal1/page1?_adf.ctrl-state=1dvjebskda_596"
    I clicked this link, using httpwatch to monitor network traffic, found IE visited portal server twice: first visit is a "Get" method for ""http://localhost/webcenter/portal/Portal1/page1?_adf.ctrl-state=1dvjebskda_596"", result code is 200, the second visit is a "Post" method for "http://localhost/webcenter/faces/oracle/webcenter/page/scopedMD/s64679523_e5d0_454a_952a_55128e607e07/Page7.jspx?wc.contextURL=/spaces/Portal1&_adf.ctrl-state=1dvjebskda_596", result code is 200.
    If I paste this url "http://localhost/webcenter/portal/Portal1/page1?_adf.ctrl-state=1dvjebskda_596" to ie addressing  field, and press return, httpwatch showed me there is no "second visit" for "/faces/oracle/webcenter/page/scopedMD/s64679523_e5d0_454a_952a_55128e607e07/Page7".
    Seems the "second visit" is auto generated by portal framework, how to disable it?
    Best regards

    Hi.
    Sorry about the delay, I was too busy and I only could do a small testing.
    I was checking quickly how WebCenter Portal (formerly Spaces) works with links compared to Framework Portal.
    The responsible of the "possible twice visit" is the following ViewHandler: oracle.webcenter.webcenterapp.internal.view.navigation.NavigationViewHandler in spaces-model.web.jar (method getPageTargetViewId, getActionURL and also isRedirectRequired).
    First of all, try to check that you're Pages have the "Redirect" checkbox unchecked (or you're navigation-model links). In case of being checked it will be 2 Requests.
    There are following behaviors:
    Using <af:commandLink> just will navigate using PPR and doing a POST.
    Using <af:goLink> using goLinkPrettyUrl there are many behavior:
    Already wc.contextURL is present in the URL and then it will call just one GET.
    If not is present, getActionURL it will add it in order to maintain the correctly the relationship Page - Space. It will generate you're behavior.
    I'm trying to understand why sometimes just call one GET and why sometimes generate a GET,POST,GET behavior.
    Anyway if it's urgent open a SR to Oracle.
    I think that If you try to add to your goLinkPrettyUrl the wc.contextURL parameter it just should do a visit once time (one GET). Try it if you have free time .
    I hope this information helps.
    Regards.

    i think.
    this is your requirement: for all your customers dont need to show the navigation toolbar(or) address bar (i.e) dont what show the address
    which is current running:
    http://127.0.0.1:7101/xxxJApp-GeneralLedgerUI-context-root/faces/login
    these thing have to be handled inside the adf code.
    if am right? means:
    adf reendering output just utilizing the browser to display. we cant control that broswer objects.
    As far as i know. answer is no. if am understood correclty.
    some experts better comment on it.

  • Disabling face tracking on webcam - S405

    Does anyone know how to disable or turn off the face tracking feature (on the webcam) on the S405? I see it uses quite a bit of CPU resources. The only way I can turn it off is by killing it in the task manager. Then it comes back after a reboot. I want to permanently disable it. Called Lenovo, they were no help at all.

    Maybe you can try uninstall and reinstall the software.

  • How to disable parent window while popup window is coming

    Hi,
    I am working on Oracle Applications 11i.
    I am able to get the popup window using the Java script in the controller.
    Please see the below code for the reference.
    String pubOrderId = pageContext.getParameter("orderId");
    StringBuffer l_buffer = new StringBuffer();
    StringBuffer l_buffer1 = new StringBuffer();
    l_buffer.append("javascript:mywin = openWindow(top, '");
    l_buffer1.append("/jct/oracle/apps/xxpwc/entry/webui/AddAttachmentPG");
    l_buffer1.append("&retainAM=Y");
    l_buffer1.append("&pubOrderId="+pubOrderId);
    String url = "/OA_HTML/OA.jsp?page="+l_buffer1.toString();
    OAUrl popupUrl = new OAUrl(url, OAWebBeanConstants.ADD_BREAD_CRUMB_SAVE );
    String strUrl = popupUrl.createURL(pageContext);
    l_buffer.append(strUrl.toString());
    l_buffer.append("', 'lovWindow', {width:750, height:550},false,'dialog',null);");
    pageContext.putJavaScriptFunction("SomeName",l_buffer.toString());
    But here the problem is, even though popup window is there, i am able to do the actions on the parent page.
    So how to disable the parent page, while getting the popup window.
    Thanks in advance.

  • How to Disable "Auto Align" in [System Pref.] - [Display] - [Arrangement]

    Does anyone know How to Disable "Auto Align" in [System Preferences] -> [Display] -> [Arrangement]?
    It always want to align the two screens from the top when they are lined up close together and I need them to be aligned from the bottom. Since the resolution heights are so close together (1080 & 1050) it does not allow one to align side by side from the bottom as it prioritizes top alignment.
    I guess I'm looking for a script to disable this feature.

    Anyone got any ideas?

  • How to disable the "turn page" event triggered by the scroll/swipe function?

    The problem is as follows.
    The default behaviour of Acrobat Reader (both stand alone and browser plug-in) is to allow scrolling/swiping with the mouse wheel/trackpad. This is useful when the pdf's page length is greater than the screen's own length, because you can read the pdf with no need to distract your attention from the text to the scrollbar button. However, the same scroll/swipe function turns into a usability problem when the pdf is embedded in a html page and the pdf's page length is smaller than the browser's length. In this case, the scroll/swipe turns the page, distracting your attention from the text to the unintended behaviour of the browser. What happens is that you are so used to scrolling/swiping that you did it unintentionally in the pdf's caption area. You really did not want to turn pages in the pdf. Furthermore, if the pdf takes the whole html page, being a website, the scroll/swipe function flips the website pages in ways that neither the reader nor the writer had ever intended. Hence the question. How to disable, in this case, the "turn page" event triggered by the scroll/swipe function? A JavaScript should do, but the SDK documents did not help so far...

  • TS3367 We have 2 iPad2s on the same iTunes account how do we face time ach other?

    We have 2 iPad2s on the same iTunes account how do we face time ach other?

    Some users create another Apple ID just to use for FaceTime and Messages, but I have 4 devices using both apps and I use one Apple ID on all four. I added another email address on the other devices as the contact at email address and kept the Apple ID email address on my iPad as the contact at email address.
    Settings>FaceTime>You can be reached for FaceTime at>Add another email address. Add the email address, Apple will verify it. Go to the InBox of that email account, read the email from Apple, follow the instructions to complete the verification. Go back to Settings>FaceTime and uncheck the Apple email address and check the address that you just added. You can also tap on the blue arrow next to the Apple ID email address and remove it in the next window if you like.
    Do the same thing in Messages and ...obviously you need another working email address. You can use your wife's own email address on her iPad as the contact at address.

  • How to disable airplay mirroring on iPad with ios7

    How to disable airplay mirroring on iPad with ios7?

    I've had this problem ever since I was at my friend's house- she has Apple TV- and my iPad connected automatically. So, I have no idea why any of the practical solutions that people think of are not options BUT, in terms of just getting it done, I did figure out a way. The key for me was getting near another Apple TV. I was out of town so I took my iPad to another friend's house who also has TV. Once I was logged onto their wireless network (the same network that their Apple TV is on-- that's how it connected in the first place), then the Airplay icon and options showed up from the bottom-draw menu and I was able to make sure that mirroring was turned off from the Apple TV section and to make sure the selection was on iPad instead. Problem solved. Now whether or not this will stay the same (rather than me having to make sure it stays at this setting everytime I link up to a network that has an Apple TV on it) I don't know. So my advice is find someone with Apple TV and connect to their network with your iPad and then change it.

    You would need to use one Apple ID for purchases in order to get them across all of your devices and computer. If you want you can use one Apple ID for purchases and the other one to sync personal data. The article below will explain further.
