How to turn off marketing texts about Smart talk?

I seem to constantly get texts from BT about using my mobile for using smarttalk to make calls
It says to text 61998 with Stop, to make them stop, but unfortunatly, the texts never go through, so the texts keep on coming.
Anyone know of a way to stop these freaking things?

Ah I think it's because the iphone keeps putting a space after the second digit.

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 Smart Address feature in Mail in iOS?

You seem to have found the right setting. From my notes:
Add the following line to $ORACLE_HOME/search/webapp/config/search.properties and then restart oc4j:

Maybe you didn't restart oc4j (using "searchctl restart")?

How to turn off smart mail account selection?

How do you turn off the extremely annoying smart mail account selection?

On the iCloud website, set up three Rules (click the cogwheel icon at top right and choose Rules) to move all messages addressed to [email protected], [email protected] and [email protected] to the Trash. It will be deleted from there after 30 days.
You can't set up an automatic bounce, but in any case please, never bounce spam. Most spam has forged 'From' addresses so all you are doing is sending yet more spam to totally innocent people (who are probably already getting a lot of bounces because of this) and making a bad situation worse. Even if the 'From' address is genuine, I very much doubt any spammer is going to remove your address from a huge list (they certainly would get a lot of bounces from actually dead addresses) - and in any case they can probably tell it's not a genuine bounce easily enough, so now you've just confirmed that your address works. Don't bounce it - just delete and forget.

How to turn off automatic correction on text message?

How to turn off automatic correction on text message?

At this time I don't think there is a way to turn it off. the software will learn new words and shortcuts you use when typing as you go. To do this type in the word/phrase and then hit the x when the suggested word pops up or tap on the word to keep what you have. Then hit the space bar and type away, it should have added that word to its dictionary and if you type it again it shouldn't offer up a new word instead.

How to turn off automatic variable code suggest for a single page?

Does anyone know how to turn off the code assist feature where CFBuilder tries to assist you by listing all the variables on the page? I have a CFC with over 3000 lines and it causes CFBuilder to hang/freeze like you wouldn't believe. I'd like to turn off this feature for large files (or at least see if I can tune the feature to be smarter about what variables it suggests).
Does anyone know how to disable this feature on a specific template or turn this feature off altogether? Note: I do want to keep the tag attribute suggestion if possible.

Update: I tried using CFBuilder as a plugin for Eclipse (64 bit) and then followed the steps here: CFBuilder 2 Performance Problems on Windows 7 64-bit Solved » websolete.
So far I have experienced noticeably faster response times. However, the program still hangs when trying to suggest variable names. It would be great if there was a way just to disable that feature until Adobe fixes it.

Turn off linking text boxes in Pages

I find the linking text boxes annoying because I'm always fighting trying to STRETCH a box and Pages wants to add a linking floating text box.
Does anyone know how to turn off this feature completely, so it never comes back on unless I want it to?
For a while it was OFF, and then all of a sudden I'm back fighting the linking text box feature when trying to move my text box where I want it.
Thanks for any suggestions or help!

Pamela,
No, I don't believe that you can disable Text Box Linking. Just keep your mouse pointer away from the Link Handles.

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.

I've got a 3GS/3.1. I can't figure out how to turn off the phone keypad beeps. Under settings/sounds I've turned off keyboard clicks, but the phone keypad still beeps. Any suggestions?

Did you ever get an answer to this question about you not being able to silent your keypad (ten key) tones on your Iphone? I am having this same issue, my boyfriend and i compared our settings and set them exactly the same. His keys are silent, my beep with each one I touch. I can't stand this? Did you ever get it resolved?
Thanks
