How to disable OSX from adding www to an address

I have to visit a couple of websites that are simply http://domain.com
One of them is a wizard for one of our websites.
But OSX automatically adds the www, which causes a *URL not found*
I can get to it via Virtual PC, as Firefox won't add the www automatically on the PC side. Unfortunately, Safari, Firefox, and Camino will all follow OSX's rule of adding the www when I try to get there from my mac.
Suggestions on how to do an end-around this benefit?
Thanks in advance.

Before you enter the URL, press the space bar once. This will keep URL prompts from appearing. This is the only work-around. There have been requests to Apple to make the URL prompt an option in the Preferences selections. You can add your voice by sending feedback to Apple.

  • How to disable user from adding personal devices to EAS?

    I have enabled the EAS mobile device policy for a user (John) with a specific policy named "Samsung S4".  It works perfect, he connects as designed.
    The issue is he has taken it upon himself to add additional devices (personal iPhone & iPad) with the settings that are in his Samsung S4. 
    How can I disable other devices and only allow him to connect one device the "Samsung S4"?

    Martina,
    I ran that as of now.  Is this something I could have done in the EAC?
    Yesterday, I was in EAC opened up his mailbox, went into the Mobile Device Details and selected "Access Denied" for the iPhone/iPad and selected "Allow" for the Samsung S4.  But, when I checked this morning the following was shown;
    Samsung S4 - Access granted
    iPhone - Remote Device Wipe Successful (I think his supervisor initiated this)
    iPad - Access Denied
    Do I need to do anything else to clean this up correctly?

    Do not use Erase. Instead use Lost Device. However, if the items are automatically erased then you cannot locate them nor change the setting.

  • Is it possible to disable some popups from FEP Client on the desktop. But how to disable popups from real time protection

    Is it possible to disable some popups from FEP Client on the desktop. But how to disable popups from real time protection. This is so that end users who are non technical are not disturbed and only the I.T is aware of the viruses in teh environment.Shahid Roofi

    You could set policies which when a malware detected an action perform automatically without user interaction but there is no GPO which stop the notification, one reason could be that when notification keep appearing, then user will know something is wrong
    otherwise why FEP should display any warning.

  • How to disable iMessage from a computer if your iPod got stolen?

    My iPod got stolen and I have things I don't want people to see on it, How can I disable iMessage from my computer?

    - If you previously turned on the FIndMyiPod feature and location service is on, and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud, sign in, and go to FindMyiPhone. If your iPod shows you can remotely wipe it. Otherwise there is nothing you can do.It the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - Did you have a screen-lock passcode ?
    - Report to police and change the passwords fro all accounts used on the iPod.
    - Apple will not help

  • Disable users from adding-deleting row/columns

    we are running sharepoint 2010 and I would like to setup some type of persmission that will disable certain users from adding-deleting  rows/columns.
    any suggestions will be appreciated
    thank you

    Each list in sharepoint can be assigned certain roles.YOu can break the inheritance for that list and assign a group as a new role to the list.The users belonging to that group will only have access to that list depending to what permissions you give that
    group.The code goes something like this:
    SPWeb web = (SPWeb)properties.Feature.Parent;
    string ListName = "C";
    SPList list = web.Lists[ListName];           
                list.BreakRoleInheritance(true);           
    string GroupName = "Owners";
    SPGroup group = web.SiteGroups[GroupName];
    SPGroupCollection removeGroups = web.SiteGroups;
    foreach (SPGroup removeGroup
    in removeGroups)
    if(removeGroup.Name != GroupName)
    SPPrincipal principal = (SPPrincipal)removeGroup;               
                        list.RoleAssignments.Remove(principal);
    SPRoleDefinition rDefination = web.RoleDefinitions.GetByType(SPRoleType.Administrator);
    SPRoleAssignment rAssignment =
    new SPRoleAssignment(group);
                rAssignment.RoleDefinitionBindings.Add(rDefination);
                list.RoleAssignments.Add(rAssignment);
                list.Update();

  • How to disable MOH from playing on 1 queue

    We have several queues in our
    CUCCX ver 5.0 and need to disable MOH from playing while
    callers are on hold for 1 queue. Does anyone have any info on this?

    Hi Carlo,
    The MOH is played to the customer via the CTI ports.  So when the CTI port places the caller on "hold" they hear whatever the hold source is defined for that port.
    So, if you have a Call Control Group with all the CTI ports and you are using your CSQ's so that they share those ports across all CSQ's then you can only do an all or none on the MOH because you can only change that to the whole CCG.  When you navigate to appadmin and find under the Subsystems - Unified CM Telephony menu to the Call Control Group, choose the group you want to change.  Then click the Show More button at the bottom and look for the following:
    User Hold Audio Source
    Audio source heard by the caller when the Cisco Unified CCX Script places the caller on hold via the Hold Step (when the user presses the hold key).
    Network Hold Audio Source
    Audio source heard by the caller will when Cisco Unified CCX performs a Consult Transfer (when Unified CCX calls an agent). Use this entry for the .wav file (for example, .wav file playing a ring back tone) to be played to the caller during this Consult Transfer.
    If these values are set to None, then the callers will not hear any MOH.
    So to summerize, if you are sharing one CCG with all CSQ's you will affect all CSQ's if you change this value.  If you want to ensure that only the CSQ that you want to disable the MOH on is affected, I would recommend creating a new CCG with User Hold and Network Hold set to None and assigning that to the CSQ that you do not want MOH on.
    Hope this answers your question.

  • How to boot OSX from SSD?

    Hi,
    I have just installed a OWC Data Double in my Macbook Pro 13" 2010.
    What I want to do is boot up OSX from the SSD and also to have iPhoto Library on this for fast access.
    I would like the HDD for everything else.
    What is the best way to get the OSX on the SSD and to leave everything else on the HDD?
    I currently have the sparsebundle file on Airport Timecapsule from the regular backups.
    Thanks in advance.

    You would think that would be the case,.....installing several shows otherwise.

  • How to move contacts from iphone to mac's Address book WITHOUT DELETING?

    I want to move contacts from my iPhone to the address book in the computer. I'm scared about it deleting contacts in my iPhone instead as I've heard horror stories. Syncing is so freaking confusing???

    So far playing around with it back and forth. My understanding is the following;
    1. Add on iPhone / Sync / Adds to Address Book
    2. Delete on iPhone / Sync / Deletes from Address Book
    3. Add in Addres Book / Sync / Does not add to iphone (with no regards to Advanced option in iTunes)
    4. Delete in Address Book / Sync / Deletes on iPhone (with no regards to Advanced option in iTunes)
