How to turn off hyperlinking of hostnames in Snow Leopard Mail

I think this started after the 10.6.1 upgrade, but Mail is now transforming anything that looks like a hostname into a blue hyperlink. I realize this is probably a problem for very few people, but for me, who receives a lot of email containing syslog output, it's highly irritating. The hyperlinks are extremely distracting when trying to quickly scan through a bunch of syslogs.
I don't know if this is due to a change in Mail, or in the URL handling framework. Does anyone know of a way to turn this off?

  • Turn off mavericks upgrade notification in Snow Leopard

    I'm happily running Snow Leopard with no plans to upgrade, but lately I've been getting uninvited update to mavericks notifications front and center on my screen in the middle of whatever I happen to be doing and Apple doesn't appear to offer any way to turn them off.  The only options provided are "yes" or "later."  I can't see any way in app store or system preferences to turn them off.  The notices are invasive and show a surprising lack of respect for the professionals who choose to work on Apple workstations, with the OS of their choice.
    Can anyone tell me how to turn them off?
    Thanks,
    Dave

    So what you are saying, is you want to remove this from your header? 
    I would say, don't rely on the update page.    Instruct people to avoid the update page, or do not grant people admin rights.  
    Some have suggested downloading the 10.6.8 combo and extracting Mac App Store 1.0.2 from the combo update using Pacifist.  I've got Mac App Store 1.0.2 and have applied no updates, and still get this screen on the update page.

  • 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?
    Sasha
    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.

  • Yoga 2 Pro -- how to turn off switching mode notifications -- e.g. "tent mode", "tablet mode", etc?

    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.

  • I simply want to know how to turn off iCloud* without losing my contacts

    Call me old fashioned, but I really do NOT want to use iCloud EXCEPT for ONE THING*: and that's to find my phone, ipad or laptop if it goes missing.
    Having said that, I have figured out how to turn off icloud on my ipad and my iphone (I am not using the phone as a phone, just as a glorified ipod) while keeping the "find my ipad/iphone" function active, BUT
    I can't quite figure out how to do it on my laptop.
    I seem to have done it already for photos, and for the calendar, (I know this from checking iCloud to see what it's got) but just cannot figure out how to turn it off for contacts.
    And YES, I've backed up all of those things at LEAST 3 different ways, I just don't want the Cloud to be one of them.
    So can anyone tell me how to turn off contacts in the cloud without it also magically deleting them in my laptop? (I had it happen on the ipad, that's why I'm worried.)
    Thank you for understanding-I'm older and this stuff just keeps getting more complicated and I'm a simple person. I'll back up my own stuff!

    If you are refering to documents such as Pages and Numbers files....
    The only way around this is to "save as" you icloud documents using the associated app to a local folder on your mac.  Then turn off icloud.
    Of course, when you sign off of icloud, the docs are removed from the mac, but remain in icloud.  In the future when you sign back in, the documents are available to you again.
    Oh, and the icloud documents are also stored locally in ...
    ~/Library/Mobile Documents
    Note that Library in the user's home folder is now hidden, so you'll have to set Finder to view hidden files.
    The Mobile Documents folder has subfolder where copies of the doc/data files are stored.
    You can move these files to another folder to save them.

  • I'm using same icloud and same apple ID on two iphones. Now i get calls from same number on both iphones at the same time. How to turn off that?

    I'm using same icloud and same apple ID on two iphones. Now i get calls from same number on both iphones at the same time. How to turn off that?

    Apple ID's are not device specific, so when you changed it on the iPad 2 it changed it on the iPhone 4 as well, since it's the same account still. What you need to do is create a second Apple ID (so you'll have two accounts, one for iPhone 4 and a seperate one for iPad 2).
    To create a new Apple ID on your iPad 2:
    1) Go into Settings > Store.
    2) If you are already signed in, tap your Apple ID on the screen and you will be given a few options, one of which is to sign out of your account.
    3) After you sign out, now click the "Sign in" button.
    4) Tap "Create New Apple ID" and follow the instructions on-screen.

    The only way you can turn it off is to close the lid - so you would need an external wired or wireless keyboard and mouse/trackpad attached.
