How to disable the annoying two fingers zoom?
Hi,
I bought an ubibody macbook pro 13.3". When I use firefox, the 'track pad two fingers zoom' is triggered every time I put 2 fingers accidentally.
Is there an easy way to disable it?
Thanks
Well....that is how its supposed to work in theory --
I think most people will find that it is not possible to change these settings as of the last OS update -- even if you have the "Zoom while holding" box deselected, it will still zoom if you touch it with two fingers -- and indeed, when you go back to check settings, you'll find that the box has been reselected. It doesn't really matter which of the three control keys you have selected to zoom -- it zooms with all of them, or none of them.
This question has been appearing a LOT in all the forums lately -- it just appears that it isn't something you can turn off right now. See also the forum: http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=8704537

How to disable the annoying security warning for all users in Windows Server 2008 R2
Hi,
The employees from the administration complain all the time about the different types of security warning that they get when trying to run some applications which are used frequently.
Since the number of the users is too big it is unfeasible to go through all the users and disable the User Access Control at their account settings.
Is it possible to achieve this through given account policy settings. I want to perform the changes on the server so it applies to *all* (or maybe those of Administration department) users.
One useful information here can be the following: we use 2 different severs, the application which cause the errors are in the terminal server, and the users are in the main server. Where should I perform the changes?
Best,
DHiya,
It could sound like that one indeed. There are a few options to go for, however it should be fairly easy to find out :)
Create a test GPO and apply to a limited amount of users. GPUpdate and verify that the GPO has been applied using rsop.msc
Then open the application to test and see if it has the desired effect. You might need to change more than one setting, depending on the application and desired behavior. -
How can disable the annoying "Install addons only from authors you trust" popup?
It gives no new information, but annoys me a lot. I know what I do and don't need warning poups, thank you, and would be the happyest if this browser had decent built-in features and would be useable without a cartload of addons, like Opera.
Hello nemecsek,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
[[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you. -
How to disable the annoying Itunes sound effect in Vista
Vista users: Right click on your desktop, and then go all the way down and click "Personalize". Then in personalize, click "Sounds". Scroll down until you see the iTunes category. Then simply click the "Page load complete" sound and choose (None) as the sound.
Annoying sound DISABLEDThis only works with "external" pop ups.
The sugggestion to restore auto complete comes from within Windows. A pop up killer wouldn't disable it.
The windows that pops up is telling me that I have auto complete currently turned off. Would I like to turn it back on ?
The answer is no, otherwise I wouldn't have turned it off in the first place.
What I would now like to do is get to the registry value that triggers this window and either change it or remove it altogether. -
How can I disable the annoying orange outline while I tap a link or a input area?
i'm a user of Firefox for android. i've found a problem since I update to 16.0.2 and above. every time i tap a link or a input text in the web page, there always shows an annoying orange rectangle outline around the focused link or input area. Moreover, this outline would keep showing while I drag the page and start browsing other parts of the same page. how can I disable the annoying feature?
This is the default feature of the browser to indicate which element are you on, if you are actually on focus with the input or tapping on the right link.
Since this is a default feature of the browser, it now depends on the website's developer to override this feature with custom focus styles. Normally, in a browser, you can override this with user styles/scripts but as far as I know, Firefox Android does not support such features.
However, I found [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/929362 an article] that states that there is a [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/stylish/ plugin] that is compatible with Firefox Android that handles user styles. -
Xorg & Dual Monitors: How to disable the ghost mouse?
As other dual screen users may have noticed, after upgrade to Xorg when you move your mouse between the two workspaces the mouse duplicates, aka it leaves a ghost mouse pointer behind the workspace you just moved the mouse pointer from. Does anyone have an idea how to disable this annoying thing? As a sidenote, this shouldn't be related to Xinerama as I'm using two separate X servers.
I have also found this really annoying. I haven't been able to find anything about it.
Here is a little script to make a single ghost cursor invisible (not really a solution, but if you don't need the mouse on monitor 2 then you only need to run it when you accidentally move the mouse there), if it doesn't work move the mouse a little bit and run it again:
unclutter -idle 0 & pid=$! ; xwarppointer screen +; sleep 0.5; xwarppointer screen +; kill $pid

I think it shoule modify some .js file under tomcat, but can not find the solution.
Thanks a lot, any information woulde be appreciated.
David ZhangI've had the same issue bugging me since installing Snow, er, lion, er, cat, er, cougar, er, Mountain Lion. Incredibly ANNOYING.
It's stupid stuff like this and reverse scrolling that really turn long-timer users off. I'm personally glad Forstall got fired for blunders such as these.
I'm serious peeved that turning off iCloud Documents & Data actually deletes documents and data locally. That's just incredibly stupid.
MANY thanks mende1 for the answer on how to fix it. -
How to disable the EO cache in AM ?
My customer share AM defination codes between two applications,and let EO coexist in multi AMs.And they have build a lot of codes.I wonder if this will exist trouble.
from the support documents, I know the AM has an EO cache. after one client update an EO,if second client get the EO from the same AM,It will get it from the cache. What I want to know:
1.if the EO also exists in another AM2 in same Application,can the AM2 cache refresh data according to the AM1 update?
2.if AM2 can't be refreshed,how to disable the AM2 EO cache,then let all query directly to database ?I need to clearify the scenario,this is really happening in a customer project,I just have a chance to review the codes today.
A team develops a system, they use AM1 to IUD data,B team also want to use the data,they have a separate app,and dont' want to define from EO to VO again,but A team don't want B team take the insert and update ability to A database, so they develop a simplify AM2,and give the source codes to B team.
I feel what they do is not right,but they must put it online and have no time to listen to me.Currently I want to find some fast way to avoid the data unconsistency risk.
But I dont know if am2 alone in an app,what the app should do to get refreshing data which is updated by another app.
BTW, from the customer concern,they could not create AM2 from AM1.because the AM1 and AM2 will not coexist in same app. -
i have changed the apple ID (email) but on my iphone , the icloud is stil asking me to log in whit the old email.And it is poping-up on every 10 seconds.I never used icloud, and i dont want to use it.I just dont know how to disable the icloud.
If you see that pop up you enabled icloud. Whether you want or do not want now to use it irrelevant until you actually disable activation lock.
In order to do that you have to change your apple id back to do that just long enough to sign in and back out. System will ask you to verify, don't.
Just sign in on the prompt you getting and then logout. Once done, change apple id to what you have now and verify. Then decide if you want to
use icloud (who does not want to be able to track their phone if lost or stolen). -
I have an older mac and it wants me to update to itunes 10 but my mac is too old and I cant figure out how to disable the update so I can use the store.
If Software Update is offering the update then it would be compatible with your model. Unfortunately, you haven't provided us with any information on your hardware that would enable us to determine if it really is too old.
If you really wish to disable the update alert then the next time Software Update opens, select the update in the list then select "Ignore update" from SU's Update menu. -

How to disable the selection of "Title and logo URL of a SharePoint 2013 site" from browser
how to disable the selection of "Title and logo URL of a SharePoint 2013 site" from browser or How can we able to set our custom default log to the sp2013 site using code.So that users are not allowed to change from browser again.
Thanks & Regards, KrishnaHi Krishna,
For your issue, you need to deploy a farm solution using HideCustomAction to hide site settings link. For example to hide “Title, description, and logo” link you can use below code:
<Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/">
<HideCustomAction
GroupId="Customization"
HideActionId = "ProjectSettings"
Location = "Microsoft.SharePoint.SiteSettings">
</HideCustomAction>
</Elements>

How to disable the status icon in Skype 4 for Andr...
Dear Skypers,
How to disable the status icon in Skype 4 for Android phones?
The guide on this following support page not working anymore: https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA12359/how-do-i-enable-or-disable-the-status-icon-in-skype-4-for-a...
Older version has the option to disable Skype Status and get rid of the Skype icon on Android status bar. But latest 4.4.0.31835 could not disable Skype Status in notifications settings. :/
Device: Google Nexus 4
Android: 4.3 JWR66Y
Skype: 4.4.0.31835
Please bring back the option to disable the Skype icon on Android status bar. This is the main reason I uninstall Skype. :/
Kudos to the team, the apps is really smooth and fluid to use. Would be nice if you guys are following the Android Design Principles and using Google Cloud Messaging for push notification to improve User Experience and battery life.
Kind regards,

how to get rid of skype icon on android status bar.png 46 KBLong click on this notification a sub menu having field "App info" would appear goto App Info. You can goto there by "Manage Apps">"Skype" also.
Uncheck Option "Show Notifications" A dialog will open. Don't worry about notifications for now just click OK. Now the notification icon skype has also been removed.
Now simply check "Show notification again". After doing this you would get notifications but skype icon would not be shown in the status bar anymore.
Issue: this is just a trick you need to repeat this every time sign out and sign in again. Mostly you don't do that so no need to worry. -

Is it possible to introduce a 60s delay in the encoding process?
I have what seems to be a fairly unique situation to deal with. I am successfully streaming "LIVE" using FLME to an FMS server. Currently the buffer on the FMS is set to 30s which means that our viewers have a native 30s delay on the live action.
