How to remove completely Safely remove hardware and eject media" icon

firstly i can remove that icon, as long as i left/right click it then i click Eject-HL-DT ST DVDRAM GT50N, but after the laptop restarting, it will show up again, I want to make is diasppear completely. How can help me ?

This is a hardware thread anyway and it sound like a software issue. You might want to see if there is a software thread in the community on this.
I have re read the post and don't understand what you're typing anyway.

  • Cannot eject ultrabay harddisk in "Safely Remove Hardware and Eject media"

    Just installed my T430s with Win7 x64.
    But I have a problem with ejecting my ultrabay harddisk using "Safely Remove Hardware and Eject media" icon.
    I installed the lastest Intel Rapid storage driver (RST) ver. 12.8.10.1005 from Lenovo download.
    Ultrabay harddisk not in the list using Lenovo RST driver!
    If I use the native Win7 driver (Standard AHCI 1.0 Serial ATA Controller) it works:
    Works fine using native driver.
    I assume the Intel RST driver might have some improvement to the native driver.....so I would frefer using that.
    This is how it looks like in the Device Manager:
    Intel RST driver:
    Win7 x64 native driver:
    Any suggestions......does anyone have a newer RST driver?
    Tried to find one at Intel without luck :-(
    Solved!

  • How to remove bullets and spacing for url links in the Related Links iview?

    I tried to look for a property that I can edit the look-n-feel of the url links in the Related Link iView using "Theme Editor".
    All I need is to remove the bullets and increase some vertical spacing between the links.
    Currently, it looks like this:
    URL iView A
    URL Iview B
    I go through the whole section of Related Links properties, none of them seems to do what I want.
    Here are the list of properties in Related Link section (of Navigation Panel):
    Link Color
    Text Decoration of Link
    Hover Color
    Text Decoration of Hovered Link
    Initially, I thought "Text Decoration of Link" should be the right property I should look at. But there are a drop-down with 5 options: None, Underline, Blinking, Overline and Line-Through, which really can't achieve what I want.
    Thanks for advice.

    Hi, Kai.
    I checked the Related iView properties (URL Template), I don't see what layoutset it is really using. I am not sure, is that a layout set apply to the Related Link Iview?
    For the regular KM iView, I will see what Layout Set I want to apply, then I can go and change the properties (of layout coontroller, collection renderer & resource renderer)you mentioned. But for this Related Link iView, I really don't know. I guess it may be in the code itself.
    If there is a layout set for Related Link iView (or the place to apply layout set to it), can you point to me which one is that? (I did a search through the layout set names, I only find the AppQuicklinkExplorer (I used this for Dynamic Nav. Link iView before), if I can aply this layout set to Related Link iView, my problem will be solved.)
    Thanks for help.

  • Use of BAT file - How do you completely delete 150 phones and their associate DNs?

    How do you completely delete 150 phones and their associate DNs? All the phones are in the same device pool. I prefer BAT way.
    Version of the CUCM: 8.6.2
    Type of phones: 7962 phones - associated with the same device pool.
    Additinal questions: Is there a way to delete elegantly all the phones and their associated DNs when all the phones are associated to the same device pool? I rather not work with specific extensions and MAC addresses.
    Thank you,
    Calin Lupas

    Hi Calin,
    Using BAT this will require 2 - passes. 1 for the phones and 1 for "unassigned DN's". this is nicely shown in the attached doc;
    http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucm/bat/8_0_1/bat-801-cm/t03delph.html#wp1342774
    Of course for the DN's you could delete them via the Route Plan report>Unassigned DN>select all>Delete
    Cheers!

    How can I completely get my iPhone and iPad disconnected from iTunes Match? I don't usually have Cloud access and find iTunes Match to be very annoying.

    Csoud1 is correct. But if you still want to keep your iTunes Match subscribed and did not want to sync with your iOS devices, do the following:
    On you iOS devices, just go to Setting > Music > disable iTunes Match

  • Partial installs - how to remove them and start afresh

    Hi,
    I'm in the middle of installing BOXI 31 on a 32 bit unix machine, distro Red Hat Ent 5.0.
    How do you uninstall the partially deployed BO install. Is there a script that removes what was installed. Or is it simply a case of Add/Remove Programs and then physically removing the files copied top the directories.
    I'm keen not to lock up any of the ports from previous installs thereby affecting the workings of the correctly installed version.
    Here's the error in more detail below.
    Thanks for taking the time to read this post.
    I've managed to partially install the software but got an error midway through of
    [error] Errcode 1: cp -r /home/o2mars/perl/* /home/o2mars//perl
    [error] [PostInstallScripts::WaitForCMS] CMS is not started, giving up.
    ~                                                                               
    I presume this is due to my hosts file
    # Do not remove the following line, or various programs
    # that require network functionality will fail.
    127.0.0.1               localhost.localdomain localhost
    ::1             localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6
    192.168.0.162   oxygen

    Hi Caroline,
    cheers for the reply.
    Impatient and went ahead and removed the the directories completely - bit rash but it worked OK.
    On reinstall still managed to get that error but the progress of the install as a whole didn't fall over as it did previously on about 55% of Total Progress. This time it reached about 90% then came back with the message of
    BO installed with Errors etc.
    I then ran the setupinit.sh, everything was OK then on login to CMC and InfoView.
    I asked around the traps here (my colleagues would have loads more experience with Unix than I) and the said don't worry about it once the perl dir was there since it seemed to be copying to itself.
    [o2mars@oxygen ~]$ du -hs perl
    67M     perl
    so not as big as you say.
    It is a bit of a worry I suppose I would have preferred a clean install entirely.
    So far only the Red Hat Ent 5.0 and BOXI 3.1 itself are the only programs loaded so it would have only been the partial installs that could have consumed those port resources (it happened on a previous install I did before Christmas)
    Thanks for your tips
    Cheers, Ed

  • How to remove folder and leaf icons from a tree

    Hi,
    I know how to remove when we have a mx component i.e.,
    <mx:Tree folderOpenIcon={null} ...../> similarly for
    closed and default leaf icon.
    But how do i achieve this from an action script like say i
    have,
    var tree:Tree = new Tree();
    tree.setFolderOpenIcon(null); ///is there something like this
    or any other alternative.
    Please advice.
    Thanks,
    Lucky

    the folderOpenIcon is a style so you have to set it with the
    setStyle method
    try:
    tree.setStyle("folderOpenIcon",null);

  • How to remove Header and Footer from Flat File

    Hi,
    In a scenario , we are going to recieve a flat file which will contains header , footer and data. We have to have to load data in Oracle tables and remove header and footer.
    once the data load is complete , we have to delete flat file from source directory.
    Please help me in solving this issue.
    Thanks,
    Kamlesh

    You have a header parameter in the file datastore. You can provide any number to skip rows from top of the file. For footer you can create a filter in staging area.
    Filter coould be something like this.
    where source_alias.source_column not like '%FOOTER_OR_ANY_VALUE_AS_PER_YOUR_REQ'

  • How to remove rootkits and malware?

    I have downloaded and ran the programme Rootkit Hunter and the results are worrying.
    I don't know much about malware other than a malicious individual has persistently been installing it onto my machines via malicious emails - this time targeting my iPhone 4 (which I promptly got rid of upon discovering this individual's presence and replaced with a new Samsung S4, which is probably infected as well now) first; and from there using my house Wifi network to get onto my Macbook Pro 10.8.3 (which is the machine I am on now, and the machine the results refer to); and also my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1; and most likely the phones and computers belonging to other members of my family are compromised as well.
    The following are the worrying results identified by Rootkit Hunter:
    For "Checking LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable", it says in yellow "skipped".
    For "Checking for hidden processes", it also says in yellow "skipped".
    I also have red warning notices in relation to system configuration file checks and filesystem checks alerting me to the following:
    "Checking if SSH protocol v1 in allowed The SSH configuration option 'Protocol' has not been set";
    "Checking if syslog remote logging is allowed Syslog configuration file allows remote logging: install.* .0.1:32376"
    "Checking /dev for suspicious file types Suspicious file types found in /dev: /dev/fd/6: MS Windows icon resource"
    "Checking for hidden files and directories Hidden file found: /usr/share/man/man5/. rhosts.5: troff or preprocessor input text".
    I do not know how to interpret these results other than of course realising they are alerting me to the fact that something is wrong and needs fixing.
    I do not know exactly what Rootkit Hunter is telling me is wrong, and I do not know how to fix the problems it has identified.
    I would greatly appreciate it if anybody could perhaps tell me how I can do these things. And any advice on which programmes to use for my Samsung machines and the best way to protect my devices in the future would also be greatly appreciated.

    First, before I respond on specific points, I'd like you to take a look at my web site:
    http://www.thesafemac.com
    ...just so you can see what qualifications I have for speaking about this topic. I'm not just blowing wind, as many folks on forums can do sometimes.
    I was sent a dodgy email to the old iPhone 4 [...], and I clicked on it, had a quick look at it and quickly deleted it.[...] I did not know at the time that just opening them can open the door for malware to install itself onto given device
    That is absolutely not true... at least, not using the Mail app on either a Mac or an iOS device. Opening an e-mail message does not do anything that could run unauthorized code on your machine, so there's absolutely no way that any kind of malware could have been installed just by opening and viewing an e-mail message. If you opened a malicious attachment, of course, that could infect your Mac with something, but only if it somehow managed to bypass all of the Mac's built-in security. On an iPhone, the only code allowed to run must be downloaded from the App Store, so it's not possible for any code attached to an e-mail message to run.
    I reached over to phone and when I picked up I saw that it was asking me for my Wifi password. [...] I checked and it was Wifi was off, but when I tapped Wifi and opened it, underneath it was revealed that it was actually on - same with Bluetooth etc.
    Sounds like a glitch with the phone. That's definitely not evidence of malware.
    the person had half an hour to crack my parents' home 10 character Wifi network from the Iphone 4
    If your wifi network actually got hacked (you don't say how you know that it was), it is probably mis-configured to allow remote administration with no password or with the router's default password. That definitely wouldn't be something they did via the iPhone.
    The person even taunts me that they can see exactly what I am doing on them - they can see all my pictures; wallpapers; know what online radio stations that I listen to; read my emails; watch me playing video games; and know everything I type in my browser; and what I don't type as well via screenshots. I know this because they confirm to me.
    There are a few possible explanations for that. One is that this person has gotten access to some online account of yours that gives them access to your machines. For example, if your Apple ID/iCloud account is hacked, depending on the settings on your computer and how you use iCloud, that person can see a lot of your data, locate all your devices and even potentially get access to your Mac via Back to My Mac.
    If you use other remote access software, such as LogMeIn, that would explain the issue on all the machines. The LogMeIn account (or whatever other remote access account you have) has been compromised.
    It's also possible that your hacker has somehow gotten access to your network such that he/she can see all the network traffic being sent and received. This could expose passwords and other sensitve information that could lead to gaining access to cloud-based data or accessing your computer via some remote access software that you have already installed.
    Another possibility is that this person has a local accomplice who is able to get physical access to your machines, and who has installed remote access software of some kind. With physical access, a knowledgeable person can do a lot!
    What is really not a likely possibility is for all these machines to be simultaneously and transparently infected with malware remotely. Each device would have to be infected with something completely different, through different means, and each of these pieces of malware would have to get past the protections running on each system. (To see more about what protection is built in on Mac OS X, see How does Mac OS X protect me?.)
    I hear what you say about the iPhone, but I have been reading news articles online recently which actually claim it is the least secure phone.
    I'm not sure what news site you were looking at... probably not a reputable one! Android has gotten a reputation for being the most insecure system on the planet, while iOS is known to all but a few biased detractors as being quite secure. Take a look here, for example:
    http://thenextweb.com/google/2013/08/26/internal-us-government-memo-warns-author ities-about-android-malware-threats/
    Fixing it so my devices aren't recognisable to snoopers on a network is also somewthing which I am interested in knowing how to do.
    Well, the first order of business is to find out if this is all just a bunch of smoke-and-mirrors on the part of the person harassing you, or if they have actually gained access to something. If they have access, you need to find out what and how.
    I'd advise changing passwords on ALL online accounts, resetting the wifi router to factory defaults and setting it up securely, and installing Little Snitch on your Mac. (Little Snitch is difficult to configure correctly, and will warn you about all kinds of normal processes. You will learn a lot about what your Mac connects to on a daily basis, and if there's actually any hacking going on, Little Snitch should catch it and prevent it.)
    I'd also advise you to take a look at my Mac Malware Guide for more information on what kind of malware threats are out there, how your Mac protects you and what you need to do to stay safe.

    Well, I don't really understand the DnD interface so maybe my chess board example will be easier to understand and modify:

    Basically what you would need to do is:
    a) on a mousePressed you would need to create a new JLabel with the icon from the clicked label and add the label to the glass pane
    b) mouseDragged code would be the same you just repaint the label as it is moved
    c) on a mouseReleased, you would need to check that the label is now positioned over your "drop panel" and then add the label to the panel using the panels coordinates not the glass pane coordinates.

  • How do remove Safari and MobileMe Mail completely????

    I have been having problems with both MobileMe email (I am not on iCloud haven ot upgraded to Lion),
    and Safari.
    I forward IMAP mail to MAIL from gmail. At one point mail would be sent from the WRONG email address,
        and it began sending what I had just sent back to my inbox as if I had checked to send me a copy - did NOT.
    I changed ALL of my email P/W 's and it is working okay so far, but don't trust it will continue. And can mail
    pprombles be connected to the Safari problems below? 
    ALSO...Safari is very slow, will freeze and close,  and need to be restarted - but here is a clue that I think
       it needs to come out:  occasionally when going from one page to another I will get artifact for a split second that is
        like many tiny (different sized) rectangular boxes in black and blue colors. Never saw my Mac do this before.
    Could these be due to an extension?  How do  you find the extentions for Safari adn remove them to see if that
        will help the problem?  I only added  AdBlock but according to Apple Ext.  it says I have Translate installed to
       read entired pages - which I don't recall installing at all.
    I am running Safari 5.1.9  on  MacOS 10.6.8 --- it was suggested I up Memory, etc., but I recently reformatter to
    decrease need.  However, is it possible that all the updates are too large for what I have now?  Is does not matter
    how much space I have (plenty of room) but what's in it now needs more processor and speed to run because the
    updates are less efficient?
      Model Name:          Mac Pro
      Model Identifier:          MacPro1,1
      Processor Name:          Dual-Core Intel Xeon

    Hatter,  if I were upgrade for the new OS -  what all do I  need if I ordered it all to do myself at  home? Incl. the type of RAM, or anything else  needed please.  Thank you.  My understanding is that when I upgrade a computer the RAM must match  each other if I insert it a new one  - for example, if I have 1 GB,  I need to get another 1GB and not two 500 MB....etc.   Correct? 
    What about upgrading processors or ????  
    What do you know about the new Maverick?  Or is it too new.  Should I just get Lion?  and is it better to get the stand alone Lion OS,  as opposed to putting in the previous OS's and updating?  Will that save space?  Thanks.
    I am sooooo frustrated with this think bouncing back to freeze, crash and burn I am about ready to go back to PC if MAC is going to model them with a new OS every year.  Grrrrrrrrrrr.

  • How to remove DeviceCentral and Bridge ?

    Hi all,
    after installing DW CS3 (which took more than 30 min.) , I
    was very unpleasantly surprised to notice that some apps named
    DeviceCentral, Bridge and Bonjour were silently installed along
    with DW - without prompting me, and even without a notification.
    These occupy about 250MB, far more than DW itself. After reading
    what are these for, I see they are all completely useless for me.
    IMO it's a very bad practice to distribute such
    installations.
    The so called 'Bonjour' is even a third party program - and
    not only that, but an additional service was installed, which
    starts this program automatically when Windows boots.
    As I don't need any of these, is there any way to safely
    remove them? None of them has a separate uninstaller, but if an
    Windows installer package was used to install them, they can be
    probably removed by using msiexec in command line mode?
    Thanks for any suggestions.
    PS: maybe a proper installer of DW CS3 exists but I
    downloaded by mistake some bundle?

    > Anyway, are there some guidelines for manually removing
    these additional

    I haven't seen any. They are what is known as "shared
    applications" meaning
    that other programs in the CS3 family rely on their presence.
    Why they are
    all necessary for DW is something I am not certain of.

  • How to remove mails (and attachments) permanently?

    Hi!
    I just realized my Archive.mbox (~/Library/Mail/V2/Mailboxes) is quite big (8.5GB) and I decided to remove old mails with large attachments.
    As I use GMail account via POP3, first I removed mails from the Google account and I freed up about 1.5GB extra space. Later, I searched for mails with attachments in Mail.app, then sorted then and started to remove and emptied the trash. This operation was quite weird as some of them where moved to the Trash folder, some not.
    As I was controlling the space of the Mailboxes folder this is what I noticed:
    - Archive.mbox - the size of the mbox didn't change (anyone know why?)
    - Deleted Messages.mbox increases while removing another mails then decreased while wiping it out (this is what I expected)
    In summary, I removed a lot of mails and didn't free up ANY space! Does anyone know how to do it properly?
    Also, while googling I found out about "Mail Downloads" folder which is moved from Library to ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail/Data/Library/Mail Downloads. As I set "Remove unedited downloads" to "When Mail Quits" can I simply remove all subdirs from this dictionary to save some space? This folder is only used for copy of attachments, right?
    Thanks for anwers,
    Bart

    Each IMAP account it's own Archive folder. POP accounts all share the same Archive folder.
    I removed a POP account in Mail but the archive messages did not delete. You would need to move them out of the Archive folder then trash to remove if you have archived other POP account messages. However, if it's only the one account, you can manually delete this folder in the User's Library then rebuild the Mail index.
    Quit Mail
    Go to the User's Library folder. This folder is hidden by default. To unhide: Select the Finder in the Dock. Under Go in the Menu bar > hold down the Option key and you’ll see the Library.
    Scroll to Mail folder.
    Mailboxes folder stores the "On My Mac" messages. IMAP accounts store it's Archive folder in the account's folder.
    In Mailboxes you'll find the Archive folder. Delete.
    In the MailData folder, delete the 3 files with envelope in the name.
    Open Mail and it will reindex your messages.
    Let me know if this helps.
