How to get rid of lock screen notifications?

I've tried suggestions found elsewhere(turning off app switcher, etc), but nothing helps. I'm getting FB, message, and other notifications on the screen. It seems worse since I upgraded to iOS 8. Thanks in advance.

Go to Settings>Notifications>select the particular app and turn off Show in Lock Screen.

How to turn off all lock screen notifications?

I give up. How do I turn off the notification messages I get at the locked screen from my apps? I've tried everything. I went into settings and turned off the notifications there and I went into the apps settings and turned it off there. Still messaging me. Very annoying. What do I do? The specific apps I'm getting notifications from are Temple Run 2 and Asphalt 8 and a couple others I can't remember.

I'm sorry, is this a game that is connected to Game Center? I don't use Game Center, as a matter of fact don't even play games on my phone at all, so I couldn't explain this. Is this the only notification that you have received since we talked last? If so, is this a game you use on a regular basis? Can you try to delete the game from the phone to see if it will stop then? Have you tried to get in touch with the game developer and see if they can provide any background as to why you cannot stop notifications?

How to get rid of locked file

I have a file that's locked that I kept in a folder titled junk because five years ago I couldn't figure out how to get rid of it. Just installed a new HD and tried to trash the folder and file. It's not working and now it's in two places because when I moved it it asked for name and password, then copied it into the trash and left it on the desktop. I know there must be a way to get rid of it. Secure Trash in Onyx didn't work. the file is nununu HFS+private data?
Any suggestions?

*Trash Problems*
If trash can't delete because an item is busy, try restarting the computer.
If trash won't delete because an item is locked, try holding down the option key when emptying the trash.
Try booting to Safe Mode (hold down the shift key while booting, restart may take a long time but let it go), sometimes just doing that works. Restart normally.

How to get back default Lock Screen Image of Windows 8.1

I recently upgraded windows 8 to Windows 8.1, but it reset my custom lock screen image . I tried for default lock screen of windows 8.1.I can't find any default lock screen
images of windows 8.1 (Only custom images are available). How to get default lock screen images? Does any any one know? please help me..

The last "solution" works only for pressing Ctrl+Alt+Delete and clicking
Lock. If you sign out of Windows and sign back in, that ghastly Windows 8.1 lock screen picture will come back.
You can delete the img100.png file from your WinSxS folder: right lick on this file, click Properties, click the Security tab, click Edit, click Add, type your Windows user name in the white rectangle under "Enter the object
name to select", click Check Names, click OK, then click Advanced, click Change, take ownership of the file, give yourself Full control over this file, click Apply and then OK. You may see your name three times in the Security tab (as user, administrator,
and yourself). Make sure that each instance has full Control
If this does not work, you can disable the Lock Screen: press Windows+R, type
gpedit.msc, click OK, in the Local Group Policy Editor window that opens click on Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Control Panel > Personalization, right click on the "Do not display the lock screen" option, click
Edit, check Enabled, then click Apply and OK.
This, however, is a workaround rather than a real solution, which, it seems, Microsoft does not have.
I have exactly the same issue with the horrid stripey thing. Furthermore, in Settings, Lock Screen Preview is completely blank both on current and past images.
I've tried all the tips I've found around the web with no success. I get the horrid stripey thing back.
I found this freeware called Lock Screen Customizer. Seems to work so far but time will tell. (Note that the download includes both win8 and win8.1 versions.)

How to get rid of full screens that won't go away.

I was using my MacBook Pro with my tv through HDMI. I made a window full screen on my tv ( I was using Blender 3D software and the window on the tv was the same application I had on my screen). When I unplugged the HDMI the full screen window on my tv went onto my MacBook. The problem is that the window from the tv is now full screen on my computer, and there are no options in the tool bar to minimize it. When ever I open this file that window pops up along with the window that was on my screen. It creates lag and I need to get rid of it. I need this file. Please help!

There are 3 ways to exit a fullscreen app:
Escape key
Command+Control+F
Hover the cursor at the top of the screen until the menu bar drops down then clcik the Arrow icon on the top right.
Have you tried plugging it back into the TV?

How to get rid of blank screen in PS

I'm sure it's something basic but whenever I close a PS file, I end up with an empty frame. Tools and menu bars are there. Very annoying. When I close the file, I want to see my desktop, not a blank PS window. How do you get rid of that blank frame? Thx.

Thank you, c.pfaffenbichler - that solved MY problem!

How to get rid of Facebook "screen" covering Skype...

When I try to use Skype, its screen is blocked by a suggestion to write something in Facebook or see what friends are doing, and I can't get rid of it to actually use Skype. Help!
Thanks

There are no viruses. You should be able to locate the thing on your drive, as noted above, and get rid of it.
It's hard to understand what you mean by email server or free software update. I'm guessing you mean you updated safari. That wouldn't do anything. If you downloaded something else and installed it, then that would likely be the issue. Find it and toss it out.
If the window appears when you're opening Mail, that would be truly weird. If it appears when using Safari or another browser, then follow the advice I gave.

How to get rid of menu screen? Video stalls at menu.

Hello,
I am submitting a video for a credential I am working on, and the video must be completely unedited with no menu screen. The best I have been able to do so far is to clear out the titles on a black movie screen (working with a theme in iDvD), and add my video footage onto the back of this. But when I try to play the video I have created in a DVD player, the video will stall on the black menu screen and not proceed to my actual footage unless I press STOP, then PLAY. Unfortunately, this is not acceptable to the organization to which I am submitting my video.
How can I get the video to burn straight from iMovie to the DVD burner (LaCie Lightscribe) without any themes or frames? Or, how can I get it to stop getting stuck on the black menu screen?
Thank you for your help.

In iDVD, you can drag your movie to the box before the menu starts. It will play in full before the menu comes up. You might even be able to totally delete the menu slide once you have done this, but I haven't tried that yet since I usually use a menu.

Extremely slow boot. How to get rid of white screen in Windows only boot.

Hey guys I have a Windows 7 only MacBookPro 17". 2.8ghz core 2 duo, 4 gig of ram, 7200 rpm 500gb hd(passes s.m.a.r.t. btw)
It boots extremely slow. I turn the computer on and it stays at the white screen for around 20 seconds. Then it moves to Windows 7 and continues to boot from there. I have a video:
http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xc5taaslow-windows-7-boot-on-macbook-protech
In a windows only setting how would I get it to just boot Windows without going threw the white screen? It also gets hung when logging in on a black screen.
There was a post on Ubuntu forums about Ubuntu only boots about doing something to get it to only boot the MBR. I didn't really understand if this would work with Windows 7 though. Thanks for any help.

I shut down all but one of the extensions, and that seems to have resolved the problem. Thank you!
Now to figure out which extensions I need, and which I don't, because I don't have a clue. I don't remember installing most of these, I only recall one or two (nothing looks spammy like funmoods, but still don't remember when or why these were added...)

How to get rid of white screen

My daughters Ipod touch now has a white screen on it after we took it off of charge. How do we get the screen to go away and back to normal?

If no joy... Try letting the Battery Fully Drain... Then Charge the Device for at least 30 Minutes...
If you try these Steps and you still have issues... Then a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is the Next Step... Be sure to make an appointment first...

Try looking at System Preferences: Universal Access: Seeing - to see if one of those settings is what has happened (and can then be reversed).

You don't, unless you disable the Camera app entirely.
It's such a nuisance...
Really, how so?
I don't want people going into my photos or my iphone!!
If you add a passcode to your iPhone as you should, then there's no way they can see anything in your iPhone. Of course, if the passcode is set but not enough time has elapsed that's different -- but that has nothing to do with this icon.
