How to turn off Firewire drivers -- to make Quark 7.5 work

I'm trying to get Quark 7.5 working on a new iMac with snow Leopard. It works on some new Macs (I have it working on an MacPro), but can't get it to launch on a new 27-in iMac. On another forum (planetquark), someone said they were able to get Quark 7 to work by "turning off/unloading" the firewire drivers. Can someone tell me how to do this and what the repercussions of doing this are -- ideally I would like a script/command that could be used in Terminal that would allow me to unload the firewire drivers and then another script/command to reload them when done using Quark. I know this is not an ideal solution, but I need to use Quark 7.5 for compatibility reasons with some clients. (I have tried numerous other solutions and am willing to try this with a little guidance.)
Thanks in advance for any help
Jeff

I'm more looking for help with the Terminal Commands for removing the firewire drivers. More specifically, if I use the the sudo kextunload KextName command can I simply use the sudo kextload KextName command to reinstall when I'm done using Quark??

  • Safari and webmail email alerts - how to turn off?

    One of the webmails I use has annoying feature - it alerts me with every incoming email. Safari icon starts to jump at the Dock and a small window appears telling me that I have email!
    I have searched my webmail settings but there is no way to turn it off. So there should be one at the Safari or Mac settings but I did not find anything there either! I have turned off pop-ups but apparently this small "thing" that appears is not considered a pop-up.
    Can anyone help me how to turn off this distraction?

    P.S. My Mac is iMac Intel and Safari is 2.0.4

    There is an option under Preferences > Auto-Correction to "Automatically detect email and web addresses." You want that one unchecked. There is also a link inspector, second from the right, with options to enable hyperlinks or make all hyperlinks inactive. Seems contradictory to me & I've found that if a document already has some linked text, changing these preferences doesn't change the existing links. And, if you paste in something with a link the link will still be active.

  • How to turn off camera-sound (6120 classic)

    i have no idea how to turn off the camera sound from my nokia 6120 classic
    no matter wich profile i use (completely silent, just vibra, etc.), the camera always makes this annoying "click" every time i take a picture
    is there a possibility to turn this sound off or at least replace it?
    thx

    well , you're right, but the law argues that a digital camera looks like a digital camera so it's easier to spot by the person being photographed. also, a digital camera has no other function but to take pictures, so one can't assume it's being used for any othe purpose. on the othe hand, a phone can't be identified as a camera right away. so it's easier to take pictures of unwilling subjects.
    Fear not those who argue but those who dodge

    One solution is to take a screen shot of the photo. That should make it last in line.
    Another solution. Make a new album. Transfer the photos to the new album. Then change the photo order, by tapping select, hold your finger on the photo, move it, tap done.

  • How complitely turn off computer?

    How complitely turn off computer?

    Are you talking about where it shuts itself down after going through the shutdown routine?  If it's not doing it automatically when you issue a "shutdown -r now" (or the like) then it's probably an issue with power management.  There's a few ways to tackle that.  Either use APM or ACPI.  ACPI tends not to work all that great on computers that have really old bios.  In that case it's better to utilize APM.  Probably your issue is that the your system may not support ACPI very well or even at all.  However, it may support it, but the kernel is turning it off by default from detecting your BIOS being dated beyond a certain point in time.  They did that to error on the side of caution.  They opted to choose a conservative default assumption since it makes more sense in that at least most systems will be able to boot up without any problems by default.
    My computer used to be able to shutdown automatically through the use of APM, but not ACPI (ran into this issue when I upgraded my kernel from 2.4 series to 2.6 series back when I ran with Debian), but I ended updating it's BIOS and it worked fine with ACPI from there on.  My system is pretty old too, so it doesn't completely implement ACPI.  I think it's laptops that tend to make fuller use of ACPI anyway.  However, it seems like most desktops with the last 8 or so years make some minimal use of it at least.  So you can see there is many ways to approach this issue. 
    First thing to try is to look around in your BIOS setup to see if there is any ACPI related setting, like mentioned earlier.  That's a good place to start.  If you don't see any settings, it either means that your BIOS setup either don't allow you to set ACPI, doesn't support it, or just the current version of your BIOS doesn't allow changing related settings or make use of it.  So naturally, the next thing to check is the manufacturer's sight for your motherboard and find any BIOS related info.
    Upgrading the BIOS is probably the most elegent solution but it can be openning up a whole can worms if you don't know what you're doing.  If you botch flashing the BIOS you run the risk of turning your motherboard into a paper weight.  So the key there is make sure you at least read your manufacturer's instructions carefully and also make sure that your use the right utils and BIOS version for your BIOS and motherboard.  And don't dare have a power failure or shut the system off while it's rewriting the boot block.  That where people run into a serious problem of rendering their system completely unbootable since the system no longer has the most basic of code needed to even get the system to a state that it can even begin bootstrapping.  Technically, the motherboard isn't probably trashed, but at that point you have a chicken before the egg syndrome going on.  You can't get it to boot far enough to boot to anything, much less a floppy, to be able to reflash the bios to get yourself out of the pickle.  So when, and if that sort of thing happens, then it would require replacing the BIOS chip itself which may or may not require soldering. 
    Anyway, don't let that scare you, it's just to point out that when you're doing things like flashing a system's BIOS it's critical  to do it right since it's modifying the system on such a fundimental low-level.  If that part of the system isn't functional, everything else, like HD and floppy being able to load anything, is a moot point.
    If all of that stuff makes you uncomfortable, you may opt to utilize APM instead.  I can't remember exactly how to instruct the kernel to use APM instead of ACPI.  I believe there is kernel parameter you can set in your bootloader's settings.  I can't remember it off hand.  Sorry.

  • How to turn off receiving apple support communities emails

    how to turn off receiving apple support communities emails on imac and ipad?

    In addition ,you can  go to Your Stuff - Profile- Manage Email Notifications (in the upper right hand Actions box) - either check individual threads to remove or click in the top box which will check all the threads and then click on Remove Email Notifications.
    Also check the tutorial for managing email subscriptions
    You might also make sure that you haven't subscribed to one of the communities by mistake. 
    Go to the community that you are receiving the emails from and the same box called "Actions" will appear there just like it does next to the individual question.  Make sure that you are not reciveing email notifications for that community.  Probably the community  where you asked your question.  Typically that is what causes people to get 100's of email notifications. I think that this is not included in the tutorial so a lot of people miss it.

  • How to turn off connection sound

    When I connect my iPod to my iPod speakers it makes a sound that I previously disabled. However, yesterday I reset my iPod back to its factory settings just to remove any issues that may have developed with the software. Now I can't figure out how to turn off the connection sound. I have disabled all the sounds in the Settings menu, but can't disable the connection sound.
    Any ideas?

    menu->setting->profile (assuming u in general profile)->option->personalize->keypad tone set to off.

  • My time capsule all of a sudden disconnected from the wireless system and can no longer be fund by my MacBook Pro. The little lamp on the the capsules has turned off, but it still makes a noice inside,

    My Time capsule did a backup yesterday in the morning without any problem. All of a sudden, it disconnected from the wireles system last night and the little indicator lamp turned off. It still makes a noice, as if a disc was turning inside. The Time Capsule was bought last year in June. Any suggestiom what to do? What happens if I press the little buttom (reset?), will I loose af my backup?

    Do a reset.. power off the TC..
    Hold in reset and power on.. keep holding in reset until it flashes rapidly.. if it turns on at all.
    If you bought it in June.. take it back today.. it is broken.. at a guess.
    Some Gen4 are failing this way.. get Apple to replace it.. even if it is a few days out of warranty it won't be much.

    Does anyone know how to turn off the notifications that pop up in the upper right corner telling you that you have just changed from one configuration to another -- e.g. changing from tent mode to tablet mode?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Just disable it -
    Task manager > Startup > Click "Yoga Picks" > Click "disable"
    Next time you start your computer no more annoying pop ups.  If you want to be annoyed again you can always re-enable it.
