    How to stop Mail from selecting addresses from the list of Previous Recipients?

    This is a related question.
    I deleted ALL my previous recipients and when I create a new e-mail it STILL is getting addresses that I don't want - they pop up and I don't know how to stop this!
    I switched from one ISP to another - I deleted the old e-mail account in MAIL - I DID use the same name on the account - is that why it keeps bringing up the old address? 
    ARGH!

  • How to stop Flash from automatically playing videos?

    Some web pages have, either for advertisement or content, a box playing videos automatically. An example is Yahoo Finance playing Bloomberg videos. It costs bandwidth on some devices. I was not able to find any way to stop it. Some advices found elsewhere recommended checking ActiveX Filtering. In Yahoo case it doesn’t work. What else can be done to stop this behavior? Windows 8.1, IE11, FP 16.0.0.235.

    I revive this question. Maybe this time somebody will know the answer.

  • I find very annoying that, although the cursor is flashing in the serch box, unless that box has been clicked in to enable it, typing goes to the nearest topic in the bookmark list. how to stop it from happening?

    i use Google home page as my firefox home page. often i find that although the cursor is flashing in the serch box, unless that box has been clicked in to enable it, typing goes to the nearest topic in the bookmark list instead of accepting the typing. how to stop it from happening? why not stop the cursor from appearing in the search box unless you have clicked in it?

    Do you organise your email into separate folders, or do you just let it accumulate in the Inbox?
    I would strongly advise you not to let it sit in the Inbox.
    When you see this happening, try right-click on the affected folder, select '''Properties''' then '''Repair Folder'''.
    Large folders (actually, a folder in Thunderbird is stored as a file, so it is sensitive to file size limits set by the underlying file system) can be problematic. This is one reason not to let messages collect in one folder. I use Thunderbird's Archive folders so that accumulated mails over several years can happily coexist because they are effectively stored in many small folders. No single mail store folder then exceeds the 2GB or 4GB sizes that have been known to stress the OS. I appreciate that current builds of Thunderbird and a modern 64-bit OS should be able to cope, but practically I find it slows down when given huge files, so I err towards a pragmatic solution; a large number of not very big files.
    Archives are searchable, and a Saved Search folder can give you a virtual composite folder allowing access to the entire Archive.

  • When I search in safari, how do I stop it from quessing what I am typing?

    When searching in Safari, how do I stop it from guessing what I am typing?

    Go to Settings>General>Keyboard>Auto Correct>Off.  This will also turn off spell check. You can also tap the X next to the word that Safari suggests to get rid of the word and keep typing what you want.

  • How to stop iphone from autoplay when plug into car audio system usb?

    how to stop iphone from autoplaying when connected to your car audio USB ?

    You need to remove the association that Windows has with that particular file type. To do that, you need to open Windows Explorer. From there, click on Tools, then Folder options. Click on the tab that is named file types. You then need to find the extension for the photos that appear in the iPhone, then click that registered file type. Once you do that, there is a section to select the program to open that file type with. You can click on the change button, and that will allow you to change the program that it opens with, or restore the default. There is also a box that can be checked to always use the selected program. If you unselect it, it will prompt you next time on what program to use.
    Hope this helps.

  • I have itunes set up to sync with my Ipod Touch and my Ipad.  As of today, it keeps looking for an iPhone to sync with and give me an error message.  I don't have an iPhone and don't know how to stop it from popping open with this error message.

    I have Itunes set up to sync with my Ipod touch and Ipad.  As of today, iTunes has started searching to sync with an iPhone, which I don't have and pops open with an error message stating it cannot locate the iPhone to sync.  I have looked in devices and only the iPad and iPod Touch are listed.  Any ideas on how to stop iTunes from searching for any iPhone it is never going to find? It is annoying to have it popping up all the time with the error message.  Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    You should really read the manual.
    "How do you restore from backup? "
    Restore.  When given the choice, choose to use backup.
    "And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
    They would only be where you put them.  What program did you use to import them?  Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all.  You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
    If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.

  • How can I change (or select) what is being being used when I share, as the file cover. When I Share lets say "Master File" i want to select a frame that is used as the file cover. So when its on my desktop I see this image as the file icon.

    How can I change (or select) what is being being used when I share, as the file cover. When I Share lets say "Master File" i want to select a frame that is used as the file cover. So when its on my desktop I see this image as the file icon.

    I don't think Finder does this (I've tried).
    iTunes does though. Where you can set artwork or the "poster frame"...
    This may not be what you want but if it helps, I know 2 ways  do this is
    Open the video in QuicktimePlayer7 | View | Set Poster Frame (even then, you might need to save it as .mov (ie in a 'mov container').
    Drag the file into iTunes and set the artwork (as in http://www.dummies.com/how-to/content/adding-album-cover-art-or-images-in-itunes .html)
    From there, iTunes will use that frame as the "poster frame" ie the photo/frame that shows when you browse your videos. Which is what you want, but limited to iTunes.
    When I do either of these above, the frame I set does not show when exploring files in "Finder" (or in the other Explorer tool I use called "Pathfinder").
    So it maybe, that exactly what you want, is not possible.

  • How to stop Firefox from launching everytime I turn on my MacBook?

    Hi Everyone,
    Everytime I turn on my MacBook, Firefox launches. It really bugs me, and I tried to stop it, but couldn't find how, either in system preferences or in the firefox menus.
    Can someone please help and tell me how to stop it from happening?
    Thanks already,
    Quentin

    This usually happens because you've added the application to the Login Items list in the Accounts preferences. Open Accounts preference, click on the Login Items tab, locate the Firefox entry, select it then click on the "-" button to delete it.

  • How to stop iPad from transferring apps to Mac?

    First off, let me state that I have iCloud backups of the most important app data and I don't care that I don't have backups for the rest. I don't care that those apps might one day be gone from the App Store. I don't care about saving my game data.
    What I do care about is that I shouldn't be forced to have a backup of ALL the apps on my iPad/iPhone on my MBP, which didn't come with unlimited storage space.
    I think at one point I was asked by iTunes if I wanted to transfer the purchases to my Mac (or if I wanted to backup the apps? I don't remember) and I foolishly clicked yes. Now, even though I have clicked on "Rest Warnings" multiple times, iTunes still insists on copying all the apps to my Mac without asking me if I wanna do it.
    I saw some suggestions about creating empty folders and stuff but I don't wanna do that. It just doesn't make sense that Apple doesn't give us an option to NOT backup our apps to our Macs. I thought the point of having an App Store where you can download your purchases anytime you want is so that you don't have to keep everything on your Mac.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    I hope you get a solution soon. I've been having this problem too. I under any circumstances don't want my apps on my computer either, I remember when I bought my first iPad iTunes used to have an option to choose whether or not to sync/transfer apps but now its gone and it drives me crazy everytime I want to transfer music. I remember this option was Under the tab "Apps" in the device and under the Apps list. It was a check box like the ones that the Music and other library syncing currently have. But i havent seen it in a while. Apple really screwed this up.

  • How to stop FIM from Deleting Connections?

    There is something that i need, but have ben unable to do... and that is to keep my BDC data even when there is no connection. I have not been able to figure out how to stop deletes from happening... this is what happens when my service is down
    This is the result of the DeltaImport... It adds a SPS-Dummy object and removes all my objects, this causes all my fields in the user profile to become empty. I do not want this to happen. How can I configure FIM to not do this?
    This is the result of the DeltaSync...
    I have been working on this for days, and I just can't figure it out. I am going crazy!!! Please assist me.

    Hi Marc,
    Sorry for the typo. It's a BDC source, I use a WCF client to access a SQL Database (HR External System) that has 4 fields that are necessary to present in the Sharepoint User Profile. The issue occurs with a Full or a Delta Sync. The problem is that if the
    BDC source is not present the fields are deleted (I get a SPS-Dummy Added and all of the pbjects in the BDC Connector Space are deleted).
    I do not want this to happen. I do not want the User Profile Attributes/Fields to be empty/deleted if there is no connection I simply want them to stay what they are... I have two issues.
    1) Is that the even if i change my data on SQL Server side, the changes do not get picked up by the sync. Since the only field that is being tested for change is an ADid, since the id does not change the BDC does not consider them changes.
    2) If there is no connection I do not want the attributes to be deleted. I have not figured out a way to effectively do this.
    So my issue appears to be simple to solve, but after 4 days and hundreds of tutorial pages read I have yet to figure out a proper way to do this.
    Here is the pseudo-specification
    The Fields that come form the HR System (SQL Server) are to be presented in the user profile. If there is no connection to the BDC file the fields remain as they are until there is a connection and updates can be made. Changes to any of the fields are performed
    manually in the HR system. These changes must be picked up by the daily sync.

  • How to stop Firefox from checking for add-on compatibility every time it opens?

    How to stop Firefox from checking for add-on compatibility every time it opens?

    That can be a problem with the compatibility.ini file in the Firefox profile folder.
    Try to rename (or delete) the compatibility.ini file in the Firefox profile folder to see if that helps.
    You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
    *Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    You can also check for problems with preferences.
    Delete possible user.js and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename (or delete) the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in the current Firefox release.
