How to preventing files from downloading when I open them

Hi there,
Is there a setting somewhere on my computer that will allow me to open files (in emails, on webpages, etc.) without first having to download them? Please help....

No.
If you are using an email client such as the Mail.app to access an email account, a message attachment must be downloaded with the message in order to open it and the same when accessing the account via webmail access using a browser.
Why is this a problem?

How to prevent computer from sleeping when downloading Lion from the recovery partition?

Hello,
I just got a new MacBook Pro that came with Lion. I'm reinstalling from the recovery partition and I'm on the downloading additional components stage. It has 3 hours to go and the computer keeps going to sleep. How can I prevent this? I don't want to have to babysit the computer for 3 more hours.
Thanks.

Looking for an answer to this question now. Did you find one? I'm about an hour into a 6+ hour reinstall of Mountain Lion from the Recovery partition on my MacBook Pro. So I can't change the sleep corners or caffenate it or do much of anything but wait. I want to go to bed and let it install overnight, but I assume it will go to sleep, and that will kill the download. It there any way to prevent it from sleeping now?
Even trying to think of something I can put on the trackpad to trick it into thinking I'm touching it.
Maybe ill put it under my dog, and her movements will keep it awake? Thinking outside the box here.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

How to save file from download folder

how and where do I save a file from the download folder?

Glenn,
The downloads folder (for your user) is located in the folder:
/User/<your user name>/Downloads
You can get to this folder by (in the Finder) by using the menu item "Go > Downloads":
or using the key combination <option> + <command> + L
you may use installers and files directly from this folder and may move them to other folders in your user space. Where they go depends on how you like to organize files.

How to keep files from disappearing when using Dynamic link to AE in PremProCS4?

I am at my wits end here and hope someone can offer a solution. I use Dynamic Link in PremProCS4 to link a clip in my timeline to AfterEffects. I follow the instructions in my book and everytime I close my files and reopen..I loose the clip along with the effects...I get the place card instead. Here are the steps I do as per the Adobe Classroom in a Book Explains:
I double click on my .MTS file in the Project Board so it comes up on my Source Screen.
I take select the part of the clip I wish to use in my timeline and drag it to the appropriate spot on a video layer.
I then right click the "clip" and select "Replace With After Effects Comp"
I then name the new file. name or whatever.aep
It opens in AE
I then apply two simple effects... keying and a cartooning effect I use from NewBlue Cartooner.
As instructed I then go directly back to PremPro and do a "render" by pressing the Enter Key. This does not work since I only get a yellow bar above the clip instead of a red on???
So then I save the PremPro project and close it then go to the AE project, save and close it.
When I reopen PremPro the file has a place card in it and in AE it says I am missing a file.
I have tried many different ways to do this process including re-importing the .MTS file.
I can close PremPro and reopen it and all is the same as long as I don't close the AfterEffects project. Once AE is closed it looses the file. On a note here I keep all my computer source files in the same place and it never changes plus they are in my PPro Project as well. I never change the names so this isn't this reason.
Is there a tried and true method to select a piece of clip in the video layer in Prem Pro and add effects from AE and not have it misplace the files?
Thanks Kate

Hi Curt, and thank you for taking the time to respond.
Its odd how I've been trying to figure this one out for a long time and I tried your suggestion but it didn't make any difference..darn.
In the AE forum they say this is quite common and no one really knows why...double darn.
So I went back with a fresh mind this morning and tried something else..and it worked...so far anyway.
So far I figured it out... I guess I just needed to ask the question and write it all out to help get my brain working in the right direction:
Since the normal process to do this doesn't work for me ..and apparently many others..here is the solution for those of you having similar issues.
In PremPro select the desired clip you wish to place effects on
Rename it and save
R click and "Replace with AE composition"
Name new file
You will see three files pop up in AE in the project panel.
The original source clip .. in my case.. shows an icon that lets me know it isn't the true file.
Highlight this file with a click and then go Ctrl H (for PCs)
The group of computer source clips you use for your project will come up.. double click on the original clip you had imported into your PPro project.
The source file icon in AE will change to an icon that denotes the true file...save
Go to your still open Ppro project and make sure it carried the effects over..save.
Now you can save and close the AE project.
So for this works for me today and I hope this helps anyone else dealing with a similar issue.
Thanks.

How to prevent iTunes from launching when iPad is connected?

I don't want iTunes 11.0.1 to launch every time I connect my iPad (3rd generation, running iOS 6.0.1) to my Mini. I want to decide if I want iTunes, and then, if I do, launch it manually. How may this be accomplished?
Notes:
1. iTunes .. Preferences .. Devices ==> "Prevent ... from syncing automatically" is UNchecked.
2. (in iTunes while connected) iPad .. Summary .. Options ==> "Open iTunes when this iPad is connected" is UNchecked.
3. When iTunes auto-launches, it does NOT sync. It "mounts" the iPad and then sits idle.
TIA for any ideas,
Mark

Found the answer via Bing:
http://www.brighthub.com/computing/hardware/articles/72004.aspx
With the iPad connected and (at least in my case) iTunes NOT running, start the program "Image Capture" (mine is version 6.1). In the lower left will be a label "Connecting this iPad opens:" and below that label is a drop-down box which, in my case, was set to iTunes (don't ask me how), and I have since changed to "No application".
Gee, that was obvious.

How to prevent applet from InterruptedException when the page is refreshed

Hi Guys,
Is there a way we can prevent an applet from being interrupted when the user navigates away or refreshes the page ?
I am getting the below error whenever the user invokes the applet and navigates away or refreshes the frame.
My requirement is the make the applet complete it action before it is destroyed or stopped.
I am not sure if this problem is due to new java life cycle. I tried setting the legacy_lifetime=true and I got the same error or java.io.IOException when legacy_lifecycle=true

An applet cannot access the client's filesystem. So there's no worry. All the .class files come from the server, unless you're using a ClassLoader to explicitly load from a certain location in clients hd with all the necessary security permissions.

How to prevent files from being overwritten in PE7?

On a european tour I took about 1400 photos. I then downloaded 600 pix from a friends camera (both Canon). My pix were overwritten by his. Luckily I have my pix on a thumbdrive. How can I prevent overwriting photos taken on similar cameras on the same dates from overwriting each other?

Pinning tabs is potentially a great feature but I too have issues with it in it's current state. Specificaly, I don't like how you can navigate away from the pinned domain.
Addition to the suggestion above, what would be great is if pinned tabs were forced to stay in their domain ('''example.com'''/whatever). If you click on a link outside this domain or type another URL in the address bar, a new tab would open.

How to prevent Aperture from launching when iPhone is docked.

How can I stop Aperture from launching and trying to import the photos from my iPhone every time I put the iPhone in its dock? It is annoying !

image capture (the program) is recognizing your iPhone as a camera ... you have it set to open Aperture when a camera is connected, yes ???
well ... the only way to turn it off (to the best of my knowledge) would be to open image capture and set it to do nothing ... that is when any camera/card/iPhone is connected image capture does nothing ... you will manually have to open aperture and import from your cards/cameras ...

How do I get internet files/email attachments to automatically download when I open them again?

Hi - I was wondering of someone could help. I recently installed Adobe Reader... and very quickly regretted it. I deleted it but found that in Safari I could no longer open PDFs (I got a black screen instead). Following advice in the forums, I deleted the two Adobe plugins I found in Library. This worked and I am now able to view PDFs through Safari again. However...
Before all this happened, whenever I opened an attachment in Mail or an online document (PDF, Word etc.), it was automatically saved to my downloads folder. Since the events detailed above, this no longer happens - I have to save documents manually. I'd be really grateful if anyone can help me make it download automatically again...
Any ideas?
Cheers!

How stop ad videos from starting when I open FIrefox

Whenever I start Firefox, unwanted advertising videos start playing in a superimposed window that I can't turn off. Should these not be stopped by popup blocker?

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

Why are my PDF files so big when I open them or when I print them out? I only see and print half of the document, didn't have any problem on internet explorer

I was trying to print something from the internet and when I did what came out was half of the document. What should have been printed in 1 sheet of paper was printed in 2 and it was only half of the document because the letters and images were too large.
I noticed that when I saved the document from the Internet to my folder the document was in half. I tried to save it again but it didn't work. I tried to fix the printer to see if that was the reason but still I continued to see only half of the document. I tried printing again but still the same thing happened.
I thought it was a problem with my printer but then I remembered that the same thing happened with other PDFs files. I then tried the same thing on Internet Explorer and when I saved the document I saved the whole document not only half of it and the letters and images where not large like when I used Mozilla. I was also able to print the whole document in 1 sheet of paper.
I don't how to solve this problem, thank you for your help and attention

Hi efacg,
Most printing issues are solved by resetting the Printing preferences. When you print from Firefox and you click on the down arrow, do you see Defualt and Firefox? Please make changes to the preferences here and preview the document.
If this continues to be an issue please also see [[Fix printing problems in Firefox]]
If there are any other questions, please do not hesitate to ask, we are here to help.

Firefox is preventing some files from downloading off the internet

Today I had to go to the Dell website to update some drivers for my laptop. Every time I downloaded the driver file from the site to the download manager and then clicked on it to run, I would get a message that there was no file to download. The tech from Dell then had me download Google Chrome and the downloads went smoothly without a hitch. Something in Firefox is preventing the Dell files from downloading. I need instruction on how to correct this problem. I am also wondering why when I go to download files using firefox I do not get an option to run the file instead of save it. II only get the option to save it and then have to click on it from the download manager to run it. I would like to change this as well if possible
Thanks,
Maria

It is possible that you run into this maximum (the default value is 20):
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/dom.popup_maximum
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. 
*Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
*Preferences that have been modified show as bold(user set).
*Preferences can be reset to the default or changed via the right-click context menu.

I had the same problem after I gave my old iPad to my parents and tried to install Netflix. This is what you have to do: Open iTunes on your computer, the one you sync your iPad to. Then go to iTunes Store and search for and download Netflix app. After you download it, if your iPad is set to download new purchases it may start downloading on your iPad. If so, tap and hold to delete the app (because it is trying to install the new version on the iPad) Next step, go to the App Store on your iPad and find Netflix and it should say install since you already purchased it on the computer. Tap to install, and it will say the version is not compatible, tap to download a previous version. Click that and it will install the older version! One more thing, if and when you sync to your computer again it will say something like " Unable to install Netflix on your iPad" Just click the box to never remind you again, because it's trying to sync the newer Netflix app to your iPad, but it doesn't work so it displays the message. The old app will remain on the ipad. Hope this helps, good luck
