How to stop securuty/indexing breach for privacy?

How do you stop Leopard from indexing and cataloguing all your activities / opened docs /viewed pics etc.? You can hide the tabs or viewing option but if it is turned on again all the data and activity is still there. It seems this is a major security/privacy breach and a step backwards.Time machine is not turned on. The icons are called today, yesterday and past week and are found under "search for" on the bottom left of every opened folder.Is there a way to turn off the recordings or to delete them.Creating another user account is not a solution I'm looking for.
Cheers

Keep in mind that the index is stored on the drive that is being indexed. As such, indexing an external volume does not affect your main drive.
Remember also, that when you do update your external drive, the indexing only updates the changes made to the drive on the fly, provided of course if it is mounted and allowed to do so.
My suggestion, let Spotlight index the drive. Particularly if you are using it as a backup. Once in place, updating the index and searching is extremely fast.
Be careful however, of using third-party solutions. Some will affect Spotlight's normal indexing process and their preferences have to be changed for Spotlight to work.

    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.

  • 802.1x on Cisco 3750 switch: How to stop retrying the authentication for the un-authorized guests

    Hi experts,
    I'm trying to stop the authentication retry for the guests. They won't have the credential to be authorzied and will be put in the guest VLAN. However the switch seems by default always retries the authentication every 15 seconds or so. It's fine if the guests are few but I'm implementing it at a hotel where most users are guests (like 1000 of them at the same time...).
    I really need to turn it off or at least find some timer to decrease the frenquency... It's urgent because the hotel is about to open... The following is the config I put on an interface:
    switchport access vlan 1055
    switchport mode access
    switchport nonegotiate
    switchport voice vlan 657
    ip access-group ACL_PortIso_IDF21 in
    authentication event fail action authorize vlan 1055
    authentication event no-response action authorize vlan 1055
    authentication host-mode multi-domain
    authentication port-control auto
    authentication violation protect

    Elly,
    Soon I will have a Windows laptop plugged in. Then I will be able to run the wireshark. Now I have to run the "debug dot1x packets" since the attached device is a phone.
    So first I "clear dot1x session int f3/0/13". After a couple of "failure" eventually it will show this:
    "%AUTHMGR-5-SUCCESS: Authorization succeeded for client (Unknown MAC) on Interface Fa3/0/13"
    (Weird... why it's showing "success"? Anyway when the authentication restarts again after several minutes there won't be any "sucess" any more, as shown in my previous text file. They are)
    Then I have the debug turnned on:

    2) What is he url for xsd docs in 11g. for example: in 1og i can use this url to scan the xsd documents..
    http://<<HOSTNAME>>:<PORT#>/<<XSDDIRECTORY>>/
    3) What is the equivalent in 11g? I see this directory structure in 10g.. $SOA_HOME/Apache/Apache/htdocs..

    Only thing is you wont be able to browse through URL, not sure though and you can browse through the XSDs and WSDLs through JDeveloper by connecting to MDS.

  • How to stop pwsswd  change option for Admin user id or SLD or monitor ID

    Hello frineds,

  • Confirmation on How to Stop Spotlight Indexing an External Hard Drive

    Hello everyone,
    I know there are a number of posts on this but I just want to confirm: Can I stop Spotlight from indexing my external FireWire hard drive by adding its name to the Privacy pane in Spotlight's preferences when the drive is mounted? (I'm a little low on internal hard disk space on my iBook so I want to keep the index as lean as possible.)

    Keep in mind that the index is stored on the drive that is being indexed. As such, indexing an external volume does not affect your main drive.
    Remember also, that when you do update your external drive, the indexing only updates the changes made to the drive on the fly, provided of course if it is mounted and allowed to do so.
    My suggestion, let Spotlight index the drive. Particularly if you are using it as a backup. Once in place, updating the index and searching is extremely fast.
    Be careful however, of using third-party solutions. Some will affect Spotlight's normal indexing process and their preferences have to be changed for Spotlight to work.

  • How to stop spotlight indexing?

    When I start working in the morning the iMac is slow due to spotlight indexing.
    How do I stop this until later that day?

    When you see a beachball cursor or the slowness is especially bad, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.  
    These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Scroll back to the time you noted above.
    Select the messages entered from then until the end of the episode, or until they start to repeat, whichever comes first.
    Copy the messages to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of it useless for solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

  • How to stop iTunes index files (*.itl) from backing up onto office server ?

    Several of us new iPod users on my office LAN have been plagued by iTunes' unasked decision to locate its index files (I.e. iTunes Library.itl and itunes Music Library.xml) at
    \My Documents\My Music\iTunes.
    Why is this annoying? Because, for example, when I
    a) dock my notebook at work, to be my desktop or
    b) log on to the work server from home via broadband
    I have to wait while Windows synchronises those files with the copies on the server, (at \\bsecfs\users\bjc18\My Documents\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\.
    This
    1) wastes server space, 2) wastes my time and broadband costs by extending the synchronisation and 3) adds no functionality to my life - it is personal data and I want it all on my C: drive.
    Another colleague found the library got placed on her Desktop and therefore the entire Library was synchronised into the server copy of her user profile. The LAN Manager was aghast!
    I consider it impertinent of iTunes to choose where these files shall be placed.
    QUERY: How can I instruct iTunes to place (or to move) those two files onto my notebooks C; drive where all the music lives?

    Cyclone   Windows XP  

    I consider it impertinent of iTunes to choose where
    these files shall be placed.
    It's not impertinent, it's the Microsoft recommended practice. User specific files go into the My Documents folders. In iTunes case, the My Music folder is the logical place to put them.
    QUERY: How can I instruct iTunes to place (or to
    move) those two files onto my notebooks C; drive
    where all the music lives?
    You can't. iTunes always puts the library files into the "My Music/iTunes" folder.
    You can, however, change the location of the My Music folder. This is a folder specified in the registry. If you use TweakUI for Windows XP (google for it, it's on Microsoft's site), and change the location of the "My Music" special folder, then the library will be put there instead.

  • How to create search index files for Java Pet Store

    Hi All,
    As you may know, the java pet store application uses for the search function a search index object, which itself uses the following files '_36.cfs', 'deletable', 'segments'.
    Now as I want to change the data of the database (delete some pets, and names, etc.), it does not have an effect on the search results. This is because the application uses the search index files and does not use the database for the search query.
    So can anybody help me and tell me how I can create this three files from my *.sql file, so I can search in my own data?
    Thank you very much for your help.
    Regards,

  • How to Stop "Password Incorrect" Prompt for Exchange

    OK, first off, please don't say "enter the correct password". I am, but my company's Exchange server is having some issues and it's not accepting requests from the iPhone (or other ActiveSync devices).
    As such, I'm getting the popup/prompt that says "Password Incorrect". When my company fixes their end, I'm sure it'll be fine, but for now, how do I get it to stop popping up? Doesn't matter if I hit "Cancel" or "OK", it just comes back 10 seconds later. I've turned off PUSH and FETCH, so I don't know why it's still making requests to the server.
    This is getting really annoying. I can't type a SMS message, surf the web, or listen to my music without it getting in my way every 10 seconds. I've tried rebooting the phone, but that did nothing.
    Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance

    Well I never setup an Exchange account, but with other accounts, when you go into Settings, then Mail, Calendar etc Settings. I can go into any of my mail accounts setup and there is a flip switch to just turn off. It leaves all the settings to be there later when you turn that account back on, but turning it off fully removes it from the Mail app.
