How to make a computer invisible in network?

I was amazed that in the left-hand panel of FINDER, under the SHARED tab, there are about 6 other computers that I am seeing. I am concerned that others may be able to access my computer via my wireless connection. How can I make sure I am protected, and my computer is invisible to them?

Go to System Preferences > Sharing > uncheck everything in the left window. If you're not sharing anything you won't show up.

How to make my computer send all the audio through optical audio cable instead of headphone jack?

Howdy,
To listen to online radios or CD's played from my computer, I used to connect the computer to my home entertainment system from the computer's headphone jack to the AUX port on my home entertainment system.
I now wanted to get better sound and purchased the optical audio cable. However, I don't know how to tell my computer to send the audio signal to the home entertainmeny system through the optical digital cable rather than through the headphone jack. If I just unplug the cable connecting the headphone jack and the AUX port and only have the PC and the system connected with the optical audio cable, I don't hear any sounds. I suspect the computer isn't sending any data through the optical audio port. I'm not able to find how I can adjust the settings on my computer so that from now all sounds are output through the optical audio.
1) I'd like to do that mainly for my HP desktop (configuration below) and any advice on how to do that would be appreciated.
2) I also have a HP laptop (configuration below) and was wondering if that would be doable too (even though it doesn't appear to have a audio out, but it has HDMI out - can one convert it to optical audio?
Thanks in advance!

Hello @_goma,
Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
I have read your post on how you are looking to make your computer send all the audio through an optical audio cable instead of the headphone jack, and I would be happy to assist you in this matter!
To configure your desktop to enable the optical audio cable, I recommend following the steps below:
Step 1. Click the Windows Key Button on your desktop
Step 2. Type "Control Panel"
Step 3. Select "Control Panel" in the top right-hand corner
Step 4. Select Sound
Step 5. Under the Playback tab, right-click the white area below the devices available
Step 6. Select "Show Disabled" and "Show Disconnected Devices"
Step 7. Connect your Optical Audio Cable
Step 8. Select your Optical Audio Cable as the default device and click "Enable"
Since it is not possible to convert the HDMI out to audio out on your notebook computer, it is unfortunate that the notebook is not able to connect with an optical audio cord.
Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, and I look forward to your reply!

How to make the buttons INVISIBLE in the Application toolbar

Hi All,
I have a requirement to create a button in the Application toolbar of the Module Pool Screen. The field should be made Invisible by default. and it should be displayed based on one condition.
Could you please let me know how to make that particular button INVISIBLE. I think we can make it invisible by using EXCLUDING statement. But, How to make the button VISIBLE again when the check is satisfied.
I found from the portal that the FM 'VIEW_SET_PF_STATUS' can be used to make a button INVISIBLE. Could anyone help me out how to pass the parameters to this Function module?
or is there any Function Module available to make the button VISIBLE and INVISIBLE? Please help me on this issues.
Is there any possibility to make the button VISIBLE or INVISIBLE as we do for the screen fields using LOOP AT SCREEN..?
Thank you in advance.
Regards.
Paddu.

Hi,
Try to use below in the PBO module status_0100 OUTPUT.
DATA t_fcode TYPE TABLE OF sy-ucomm.
refresh t_fcode[].
APPEND 'Function code name of the button' TO t_fcode.
Check the condition here for which you want to make field visible.
DELETE FCODE of the button from T_FCODE table
ENDIF.
SET PF-STATUS 'STATUS_0100' EXCLUDING t_fcode.

How to make tab strip invisible?

hi Gurus,
i had used a tabstrip in my screen 100. now i want make my strip invisible initailly.
if certail condition is satisfied than i want to show my tabstrip.
can anybody help me this,
thanks in advance.

Hi vipul,
Tabstrip Controls
Tabstrip controls are made up of pushbuttons (the tabs) and several subscreens. Each tab has its own subscreen. These tabs are part of the main screen and are therefore displayed in the field list of the dialog box for the main screen. Subscreen fields are displayed in other dialog boxes.
According to how a tabstrip has been constructed internally:
● Either a sole dialog box is displayed for the subscreen that belongs to the tab that is currently active, or
● Dialog boxes are displayed for all subscreens that belong to the tabstrip control.
If an invisible tab is set to active by the application transaction, different subscreens are selected for those tabs remaining that actually belong to other tabs. If the subscreens are invisible, it is also possible that an empty screen will be displayed.
Technical Background:
The transaction variant sets another tab (the remaining tab furthest left) to active. This additional active tab is, however, unknown in the application transaction, which assumes that its tab is active and selects the corresponding subscreen. If this subscreen has been faded out using the transaction variant, then an empty screen is displayed.
CXTAB_CONTROL in SAP ABAP and TABLE CONTROL ... This field is used to make a particular column invisible or visible

How to make some nodes invisible?

I set up a xml tree with JTree.Now I want to make some nodes invisible like the nodes which the name of the node is "datatype",how can I ?Thank you.

I don't know if the nodes can be made invisible. But if you make cell renderer then you can evaluate the value before displaying it. If value is like 'datatype', you display (cell renderer displays) nothing as value in the cell.

How to make the message invisible.

use transction "CNMASS" to mass change the activity.
but there is a message. the message no. is CN354. "No authorization for processing: WBS element XXX"
how to make this warning message "CN354" is invisible.
Please explain me all the steps to be required.
Thanks in advance!

Tense,
From the looks of it, the error message seems to be authorization-related. You should try CNMASS with an userid that has the appropriate authorizations instead of trying to circumvent the problem.
Next time you get this message, immediately do a /nSU53. This will show you what authorizations failed. Send this log to your Security team to get the required access.

How to make a field invisible using t-code SHDG

Hi Experts,
I got a requirement to disable a field Business unit in all transactions of Plant maintainance. I heard that it can be done with the help of transaction SHDG.
I am not aware of this transaction. So anyone please provide some information or the material related to this transaction.
Also let me know. If i make this field invisible using this transaction. If the same field business unit is used in other modules such as SD, FICO then there also will it get invisible?
If that is the case how to overcome the above scenario.
Useful answers are rewarded....
Thanks
Kiran.

Hi,
I think its not shdg but shd0.
the best way to do it is Screen Variant and Transcation Variant.
Tcode for it is SHD0 and you can disable, make any field invisible, make screen invisible , can have default value can be done through SHD0.
Try it. It will be helpful for you.

How to make Visible and Invisible using a Button?

hi!... I've a Text3D using Oriented3D object and I would like to know how to make it visible and invisible by clicking a button.
I know there is a function, setVisible() in RenderingAttributes, which can be set by the object's Appearance.
Since I want to use a button to change the object's appearance, I need to change it in the button's actionPerformed function, but it has thrown an exception:
"Shape3D: no capability to set appearance".
I'd tried using those setCapability flags... but still nothing...
Could someone help me please?...
Thanks

When you create Shape3D, setAppearance to it and
setCapability(ALLOW_APPEARANCE_READ).
For the Appearance, you should setCapability(
ALLOW_RENDERING_ATTRIBUTES_READ).
For the RenderingAttributes, you should setCapability(
ALLOW_VISIBLE_WRITE).
So in the button event handler,
shape.getAppearance().getRenderingAttributes().setVisible(true/false).
Now you can control the visiblity of Text3D

How to make a button invisible?

I'm sure this is something easy that I'm missing, but I can't figure it out. How do I make a button invisible? I need it to be invisible through frame 43 of my movie. I have tried changing the alpha to 0, but it's not letting me change that, except in the edit button mode which changes it for the entire duration and not just through frame 43.

It can vary slightly depending on which version of actionscript your file is using, but just turn the visible property off and on. For AS3....
btnName.visible = false;
btnName.visible = true;

How to make MAC print to an network printer on a non default port.....

Hello
I have a Gestetner 3235PCL printer at the office. The printer is on IP address 192.168.1.10 using Port 9101.
I can't seem to find a way to make the computer print to anything but the default port.
Any ideas if this is possible using a Mac?

Bruce is correct, but be certain you select IP > HP Jetdirect-Socket. Then enter the IP address with the port number separated by a colon " : ".
You could also use the CUPS web page to add the printer. At the Device menu, select 'Appsocket/HP Jetdirect' and then at the Device URI menu, after socket you can enter the IP address with port 9101, such as
socket://ip_address:9101/
Do you know if the printer is using a Fiery controller? I know the Fiery's offer three ports alternate to 9100 so that you can connect to a specific queue. 9100 will print to whatever has been selected as the default queue in the controller config, such as print, while 9101, 9102 and 9103 are the direct, print and hold queues respectively.

How to make a folder invisible of a particular user

Hi All,
I want to make a folder/report invisible for a particular user, but I want to access that report through hyper link of another report.
Is this possible?? can anyone suggest me?

Hi,
What version are you on?
If you deny access to the folder in which the report is placed the user should not be able to see the report. If you then provide view access to the user on the report explicitly (you might have to turn off inheritance for the object), then this should override the deny and you shouldbe able to hyperlink to it. So the user has access to the report but has no way of getting to it, except through your hyperlink
Let me know how you get on

How to make script depended on specific network???

I hope that someone can help me with this. I do not yet have much experience with scripting, but I made a script which connects my macbook to a folder on my NAS. However, if my local network is not available the script will hang itself waiting until it can mount. Also limiting the repeat loop does not help since it will still hang within the loop. I was just wondering if I can start the script with a command which says that the script should only be executed if connected to a certain ip adress or Network-name. This is my script sofar:
tell application "Finder"
repeat
if not (exists folder "Backup" of desktop) then
try
mount volume "afp://user:[email protected]/Backup"
end try
end if
if (exists folder "Backup" of desktop) then exit repeat
end repeat
end tell
Thanks for any help in advance!

Thanks, that's helpful! Reason of the repeat is that the real script contains three folders to which the computer has to connect. Sometimes the computer/NAS is still busy doing something else so it needs an extra attempt before connection is made.
By the way, for those who are interested, I seem to have managed to make a script to check for the network first:
set myIP to (do shell script "system_profiler SPAirPortDataType|grep -e 'Current Wireless Network:'")
if myIP does not contain ("Current Wireless Network: xxx") or myIP contains ("turned off") then error number -128
