How to disable mobile account functionality?

For quite some time now I have had a mobile account because I used to use a home server in conjunction with my laptop.  Now, however, I no longer do but there seems to be no way to switch my user account back to a normal account.  Even when I try to edit the settings for the mobile account to try and just simply not sync anymore all the options are greyed out. 
I'm tired of having to cancel the sync every time I log in and out of the machine.  Isn't there some way to turn this back into a normal account?
Currently running os 10.8.3

a friend send me this. I'm trying it with limited success.

  • How do you disable mobile account settings/parental controls

    My school had a one-to-one macbook program, but I switched schools. Now i have a heavily restricted computer. They had my account set to mobile and had parental controls enabled, so I used single user mode to create a new admin (remove /var/db/.applesetupdone and reboot) and remove them. However, even though no account has parental controls turned on, they are still enabled somewhere for all accounts, even admins. I have two questions: how do i disable mobile account settings, and where are the parental controls files located? I found some in /library/managed preferences/<account name here> , but editing these gives only temporary relief from parental controls, and they are reset when i restart. There has to be somewhere else that parental controls are flagged as on/set to sync on login. i removed the actual parental controls executables and stuff somewhere in /system but after that i couldnt open activity monitor and i didnt want to risk a reboot. please help me as this is very annoying. btw im on OS X 10.6.7

    HI,
    Try this..
    Open System Preferences/MobileMe and select the Sync tab.
    Deselect the box where you see: Synchronize with MobileMe. The last sync will noted at the bottom left side of the window.

  • How to disable "Smart account selection"?

    How do I disable the following function on an iPad mini?  Default email account ("From" field) is changed after I select a contact in the "To" field.
         iOS 7 notes who the addressee is and what server it came from, then automatically adjusts the From field for you.

    Thanks for your reply!  Changing the "From" field is only a temporary solution.  I have already set the default account.
    When I select a photo or a note to send, the "From" field will be automatically changed from my default account to one of my other accounts (depending on what I choose in the "To" field).  I just want to stop this so called "Smart account selection" introduced in iOS 7 on my iPad mini.  Thanks!

  • How to Disable battery charging Function?

    Hi;
    I have a question about charging funtion of my "HP Compaq Business Notebook, 6720s":
    How can I disable "battery charging" function in windows 7? Is there any "advanced setting change" or "software"  that while battery is in its slot, stop my notebook from charging its battery?
    Thanks

    After some days trying many methods, yet I haven't find a solution to my problem. Then I ask is there  any one
    knows which software should I download for HP Compaq Power Management (similar to the software that Huffer
    mentioned, but that was for Lenovo) or which registery or BIOS change should I do , so that I can manually disable
    charging function of laptop, or at least put a starting level that up to that level, laptop won't start
    autolatically to charge battery, because in this manner once that my Battery reaches to below 100%, instantly begin
    to be charged & it would decrease its life time. Please consider that because of my power cable is to some damaged, sometimes it suddenly disrubt & cause my laptop abruptly shut down, then necessarily the battery would always be connected tob prevent this suddent effect.
    If any one could help me, I would appreciate him a lot.

  • MSI installation, how to disable the online functions (like Cloud and login)?

    How can I disable the online functions which need a login with the adobe id? I want to do this while I install the Adobe Reader DC with the MSI installer.

    Hi Yannic,
    I can understand your concern, however Document Cloud is a core part of Adobe Acrobat Reader DC and Adobe Acrobat DC so it cannot be disabled. If you don't want to use this feature then you don't need to sign in.
    If you really feel that this does not suites your requirement then you can uninstall it & re-install Adobe Reader 11 Adobe Acrobat Reader DC Install for all versions.
    Let me know if you have any further queries.
