How to STOP microphone sensitivity from changing by itself?

I'm using Skype and I keep the sensitivity of the mic low through the sound pref. pane. It keeps automatically raising the sensitivity when something louder is picked up by the mic and this is really annoying.
Anyone have a fix for this ?
thanks!

You might try checking the ambient noise reduction box under the sound section of system preferences. I can't remember which way it works, so it may be checked and you need to uncheck it. Try it both ways.

How to stop the users from changing User Profile

Hai,
It is not possible to restrict SU3 to display, because it has only S_TCODE has the authorization object.
If you really want to restrict users from changing their profile you have to remove the SU3 access and give SU1 or SU2 which gives access only to Personnel details and Parameters.
Hope this helps.

How to stop the computer from changing its local network name when waking up from sleep mode

How do I prevent a mac mini from changing its' network name automatically when it wakes up from sleep mode... It will wake up and display a warning that the network name is already in use and it changes its name to (n+1) name with number after it... I know that there is no other device with that name because the only other things on the network are 2 hard drives (one being used for time capsule) and a printer..
This is very annoying and needs to be fixed.... don't tell me to make the computer never sleep because that defeats the power savings settings under power management.

Go to System Preferences>Network>AirPort and delete your network from the Preferred Networks box. Reenter your network information. Make sure that AirPort is the topmost listed interface when you Show Port Configurations. Apply the changes and Restart. Does it work now?

How to stop expression pedal from changing patch volume

I'm trying to use an expression pedal with Omnisphere in Mainstage but the pedal is controlling the volume of the sound. How do I stop this so that I am only controlling the parameters I have selected in the modulation matrix in Omnisphere?
Thanks

the problem seems to be that when you set Controllers:Output to Expression(11) it controls the Expression disc/dial at the top of the channel which controls the volume IN to the channel and if you set the Controllers:Output to Volume(7) it controls the volume Fader. the first is pre-fader volume and the second 'post'-fader volume.
here's what i don't understand. if i change the Controllers:Input to anything other than Expression(11), then it reverts back to controlling the Expression disc/dial.
so why is Controllers:Output to Expression(11) always controlling the pre-fader input? why can't i change where that 'goes'? i only have 4 choices. the reason i don't directly map it is because i use my MINILAB to change MIDI Channels and so i when i'm on MCh1 it only plays and controls the EP on channel one. MCh2 plays and controls the lead on channel 2, etc through 4 channels. this way i can switch between the channels by selecting such on my MINILAB controller.
to add another issue, the expression pedal i'm using is from my Apogee GiO and it doesn't change channels..it goes to all Expression controls everywhere.
—Caleb
^ i discovered that i had the Expression Pedal 'knob' set to Automatic. this for some reason sends it to all my channels even though they are on different MIDI channels/inputs. when i set it to just one input it only controls the Expression disc/dial for the channels that are mapped to that input (Keyboard1).
still, i'd like for it to change channels when i change MIDI on my MINILAB, though that seems like an impossible desire. second, it still doesn't explain why Expression is functionally synonymous with pre-fader gain.

How to stop Outlook 2007 from changing my telephone number format?

I'm using Windows 7 and Outlook 2007 (and Exchange 2007 SP1).
Now, in Outlook's contact, whenever I enter a telephone number, the stupid Outlook 2007 always tries to be smart and add brackets to the first few digits! There's no brackets in tel number. How could I make it stop from being too smart and changing anything?

I've found another PC with XP and Outlook 2007, but I still can't find any service called "Windows Dialing". But I tried it anyway. Guess what I got: in this computer, a normal local telephone format isn't changed. But when the number is in long distance format, ie +XX YYYYYYY, Outlook 2007 stupidly removes the '+' sign in front of it!
I then tried in my first PC to see what would happen to international telephone number format.... it's OK, the '+' sign isn't deleted.
What a f**k! What's this ____ called Outlook 2007 which tries to reformat things it can't understand??
I have exactly the same problem - I am in the UK and have a pile of UK numbers stored in international format (which most cell phones recognise and some generate automatically from incoming calls). So the number would be entered as +44 1234 56789. Outlook strips off the + and, because I sync with my pda, the numbers get exported to it in a broken state :-(
In the UK, we don't drop leading digits - to dial a number I either dial 01234 56789 or +44 1234 56789. We don't really use local numbers a lot in the UK - it doesn't make any difference within a local area if I dial the full code, just the local number or the international version. So there is no need for Outlook to do anything.
This is extremely aggravating - sure ly Outlook is not hard coded to use US phone dialling methods?
There must be a way to disable the automatic parsing of numbers - if not it is bug that needs fixing, IMHO...

Using Spry how to stop Dreamweaver CS3 from Changing Code

Hi
I am using Dreamweaver CS3 to build/maintain a website www.ghoter.net. I started using Spry to insert data from an xml file as I need the data in the xml file to show up on several different pages, includeing the home page. The data in the xml file changes from time to time. This is working wery well. But I am having a problem with Dreamweaver automaticly changing a line of code in the html files every time I make a change to the html file. The line of code that is being changed is in the head of the program.
This is the line of code that is being changed: The xml's name is data-3.xml The date from the xml file goes at the top of the left collumn.
The good code is: var ds1 = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("data-3.xml", "customers/customer",{distinctOnLoad:true});
The above line of code is automaticly being changed to this below, which does not work:
var ds1 = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("data-3.xml", "customers/customer",<MM:BeginLock translatorClass="MM_SPRY" type="MM_SPRY_DATA_REFERENCE" orig="{distinctOnLoad:true}" ><MM_DYNAMIC_CONTENT DYNAMICDATA=1><MM:DECORATION HILITECOLOR="Dyn Untranslated Color">{distinctOnLoad:true}</MM:DECORATION></MM_DYNAMIC_CONTENT></script><MM:EndLock>);
I can replace the bad line of code with the good code just befor saving the html file and the good line of code will be saved with the file and the web page works as it should.
Any help would be appricated. Thanks

Hi Jack,
I think (not sure though) that the Library Item is causing the problem. I never use the Library Item because server side includes are far more efficient and need less maintenance.
Have a look here http://foundationphp.com/tutorials/sprymenu/ssi.php
If you have PHP serverside scripting language, use DW to add serverside includes using PHP.
Getting back to your original problem, try without the Library Item and see if DW still changes the code.
I hope this helps.

How to stop symbol-content from changing size when symbol size changes?

When I change the size of a symbol, the content is also resized. I want my symbol to act as a viewport: when I make the symbol half as high, the content shouldn't be transformed, you only should see half of the content instead of transformed content. Make the symbol's boundaries act as a cropper, if you get what I mean. How do I do this?

Monogame, how to stop screen orientation from changing

Hi,
I am having a really annoying problem with mono game for windows 8 phone.
The landscape keeps changing its orientation even though I have it set to landscapeleft.
Someone please put me put of my misery.
Xaml
SupportedOrientations="Landscape" Orientation="LandscapeLeft"
Game cs
graphics.SupportedOrientations = DisplayOrientation.LandscapeLeft;

Hi Smilesprower,
How about the setting on your manifest? You have to check the supported rotations.
Besides,
Supporting screen orientation is also a helpful documentation if you are using DirectX part for Mono games

How do i stop my itunes from changing the location of my itunes media. i have it saved on a external HD and it keeps changing back to my local drive with out being told

how do i stop my itunes from changing the location of my itunes media. i have it saved on a external HD and it keeps changing back to my local drive with out being told

No, an external drive will not always be mounted. If the drive goes to sleep, it can unmount, or it may unmount for other reasons. As Chris said, confim that the drive is mounted and active before launching iTunes.

How do you stop your kid from changing the plan?

I can't actually call a number? There's none listed on this site. I need to stop my kid from changing the plan from 3 gig to 10 bc I can't afford it and I'm going to end up canceling the service if I can't get help. They shouldn't be able to do this. I e had nothing but problems from the start. First getting a used iPad and used phone out of the 3 and being locked out bc the previous owner had I tunes passwords on the phone and on the iPad. Then I was told I was signing up for the next plan and that wasn't so now I have a crapload of extra charges because I can't get ahold of anyone to try to fix this. I'm so frustrated I could blow up!!!

Put a passcode on the account. That way, he will have to know the passcode to change the plan. If he doesn't know the passcode, he can't change the account.

How to stop Time Machine from backing up Temp Files?

Hi folks!
I am trying to find out how to stop Time Machine from constantly backing up 'useless' temporary files accumulated from web browsing? Although I don't change or add large files to my HD, Time Machine backs up hundreds of MBs every hour. Those file amounts make sense when I consider that I browse a lot to YouTube, SoundCloud, etc to watch videos or listen to music - I just don't want them to be backed up.
Under Time Machine Options I already excluded the following items from backups:
~/Library/Caches
/Library/Caches
~/Downloads
But even though I did this weeks ago, Time Machine stills finds large files to be backed up every hour and my only guess is that I am still missing a location where either Safari or Firefox - the two web browsers I use - store temporary files.
Can you help?
Thanks a lot in advance!

Are you sure you need that? There are no viruses that run on OSX. None. Zip. Zero.
If you're running Windoze on your Mac, that's the same as running it on a PC, so it needs all the same anti-everything stuff you'd use on a PC.
There is some "malware," such as Trojans, for Macs, though. But (unlike viruses that can get onto your system without your knowledge), you must approve their installation (via your Admin password) and/or operation (via the "This application was downloaded from the internet ..." prompt).
Appropriately enough, some of these Trojans are included in pirated versions of Apple software, such as iWork!

How to stop the Calendar from editing your input?

How to stop the Calendar from editing your input?

I am constantly finding that Calendar Version 8.0 thinks it knows what I want to type but it incorrectly takes numbers and days and times out of my input and changes my appointments. I hate this new supposedly "smart" feature. Even when I edit my event correctly a second or third time it rewrites my input incorrectly again. I have to use my iPhone to override the annoying editing on my mac. I am ready to find a new calendar program unless Apple allows users to input what they want without their information being incorrectly edited.

How to stop the Dialog from being dragged

I was hoping that someone could tell me when calling a Dialog from Jframe, a how to stop the Dialog from being dragged
while a dialog is showing.
When it is visible I can still click and drag the Dialog
I want to set it so you can not drag it until the dialog has be closed.

If you don't have access to the parent frame, a "hack" that usually works:
Frame frame = Frame.getFrames()[0];
if (null != frame && frame instanceof JFrame){
JFrame jf = (JFrame)frame;
JDialog jd = new JDialog(jf, "title");
... code here ...
As each JFrame (or Frame) is opened, its stored in the array of Frames that you can get. Same thing with Dialog.getDialogs(). Almost always, at least so far for me I've never had this problem, the [0] index is the main window opened, or the parent/top frame. I'd put the check in there to be safe and make sure its a JFrame and usually you'll only have the one JFrame.
