HT2128 how do i turn this annoying guardian off?

I went through this "Guardian Stuff" with Microsoft back in Vista and in Windows 7. But there I found I could turn the annoying dialogue boxes off that came up every-other keystroke. Now Apple has gone this route. It infuriated me then with Windows, but now I just would like to determine how to turn the
"Guardian Boxes" off that try to safe-guard me. I have been through all the options in System Preferences and cannot identify where the on/off switch for these annoying dialogue boxes is located. Help.

I too would like to have this "guardian" turned off. I'm using 10.6.8. OS. Every time I open a browser, Chrome or Firefox, I get the following: (and yes, I really do want to open Chrome - every time).

You can't turn it off.

I want to type "0800" or "20.00"; Pages automatically "corrects" the entries to: "800" and "20." ! How can I turn this automatic correcting OFF?

In my business it is critical that I be able to enter numbers in the format I choose. I want to type "0800" or "20.00"; Pages automatically "corrects" the entries to: "800" and "20." ! How can I turn this automatic correcting OFF? I am a relatively new user of Pages and cannot find a means of turning the autocorrect OFF.or of setting the number formatting rules.

Pages v5.5.2 does not change 0800, or 20.00 when entered as body text for me. There is nothing in substitution, or Pages preferences settings that can effect these values.
However, when typed in a Pages table cell with the wrong data format, mischief does occur. In order to preserve 0800, select the Cell tab on the format panel, and set the cell data format to Text, or a custom data format. To preserve 20.00, you must set that cell data format to either Automatic with 2 decimals, or Number with 2 decimals.

iTunes is not a website, it is a program installed on your computer.
What happens when you launch the iTunes program?
Your library (media) exists on your computer, iTunes is not required to make this happen. Installing iTunes will not magically cause media to appear on your computer.

i need to stop this asap its driving me crazy!

None of the above.
I have no hub (not even a USB one), or any other Firewire Video devices. I have the iSight connect into the only port that is available on my iBook G4.
I have noticed that it stops working when my iBook goes to sleep. I am going to turn it of next time I take the laptop home and see if a cold reboot helps. If so it could be that the Firewire buss is disconnecting during sleep mode and not coming back on once the system is woken up. The only caveat to this salutation is that I never had that problem when I used my Canon Video Camera as a Web Cam.
It’s just annoying to have to fiddle with the thing every time I want it to work.

How do I SHUT THIS ANNOYING VOICE UP?????

How do I SHUT THIS ANNOYING VOICE UP?????

Based on the second post made, I suspect this is the Universal Access voice. Go to Apple menu -> System preferences -> Universal Access and disable the VoiceOver feature. If that's not the problem, turn off Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Speech. If neither are affecting it, what program is currently active according to the menu to the right of the Apple logo menu on the upper left corner of the screen?

You likely have iCloud turned on in at least Safari. If you don't want Safari to sync between these devices turn one of them off. System Preferences - iCloud - Safari (uncheck the box)

We have 2 iphone 5s sharing the same apple ID. When browsing Safari on one phone it automatically sends a link to that page to the other phone. How do we turn this off please?

@apup80
It sounds that you are running the same iCloud account with two phones. I recommend you to create a different iCloud account and you should be all set.

On my own website vdha.us, I am now getting many words that are purple and when you mouse over them, a new spamming window opens trying to sell something. IE-9 does not do this. How do I turn this off in firefox?

Sirs,
The below URL came up immediately when I tried to access our Newfangled website this morning http://vdha.us :
http://surveyprizecenter.com/survey/claimgift-GT-kw-7b.php?t202kw=Vdha.us&trimmedKeyword=Vdha.us
I prefer to use Firefox and very seldom use IE-9. but now I might be forced to remove Firefox 4.0.1 and resort to using IE-9 because of this situation.
I don’t know how spammers can use our website to exploit their spamming, but I can only imagine the complaints I am going to get from our Board of Directors and members about this.
Can you make them stop, or at least explain how it is that anyone can do this without our permission.
We have never allowed advertisement on our website and don’t plan on starting now.
I am now also getting many words that are purple with two lines under them, and when you mouse over them, a new spamming window opens automatically trying to sell something. How do I turn this off?
I would appreciate any expediency in the return of an answer that you can provide.
Kindest Regards,

The "MySearchDial" app needs to be removed in 4 places.
1) Go to "add / remove programs" in your windows control panel select mysearchdial and remove it.
2) Open your Firefox browser then click the Firefox tab at the top left and select options. You will need to change the start page settings back to your preferred start page.
3) Again under the Firefox tab select "add-ons". In the add-ons manager you will need to remove mysearchdial from both "plugins" and "extensions"
4) In your search bar (top right of address bar" use the drop down menu and select "manage search engines". You can restore your preferred search engine and remove mysearchdial from the menu.
This should remove all the components of the nuisance hijacker and restore your browser back to your preferred settings. If you are comfortable with a more in depth removal I would also suggest going to your "programs" folder within the "C" drive of your machine and deleting the "MySearchDial" folder altogether. However, only do this AFTER you have uninstalled it from your system and if you are familiar with this type of removal.

My iphone 4s is dictatating everything. I can no longer scroll through the phone. I have to double click all icons How do I turn this off?

My iphone 4s is dictating everything. I can't scroll through the phone. I have to double click on everything. How do I turn this off?

With Voice Over, you highlight whatever you are trying to select and then double tap anywhere on the screen to select.
So for your password of 1234 you have to
"Highlight 1, then double tap the screen, Highlight 2, the double tap the screen,... etc."
In order to remove you have 2 options:
Option# 1 – Turn off Voice Over
Go to setting by, highlight "SETTING
Double tap screen to go into settings
Use 3 fingers to (swipe) scroll of down and highlight "GENERAL"
Double tap screen to go into general
Use 3 fingers to (swipe) scroll of down and then highlight “ACCESSIBILITY”
Double tap screen to go into accessibility
Once you are in make sure that EVERYTHING in that section are shown as “OFF”
Option #2 - Reset your Phone
Go to setting by, highlight "SETTING
Double tap screen to go into settings
Use 3 fingers to (swipe) scroll of down and highlight "GENERAL"
Double tap screen to go into general
Use 3 fingers to (swipe) scroll of down and then highlight “RESET”
Double tap screen to go into reset
Select “Reset all setting” and continue to follow the instruction
(When you reset, all of your data and music WILL NOT erase. So don’t worry about that)
Hope this helps.

I have 30+ iPhoto Libraries, so every time I open one, iPhoto wants to copy the 3 events I had out there when MobileMe shut down. Those 3 events are already saved in the appropriate iPhoto libraries. Wish I had deleted them on MobileMe! How do I turn this process off?

As Larry mentioned I use a different DAM (digital asset management) appliclation, Media Pro 1. For other possible DAM apps visit The DAM Forum which is for professional photographers. There the various apps are discussed along with workflows. If nothing else you'll get some good information on managing digital "negatives".
Media Pro lets you manage the folder organization of your photos and write metadata, keywords, titles, and other metadata directly back to the files. No matter what app you go with have a backup plan in place to keep current backups of your source photos on separate hard drives.

After downloading iOS7 on my work phone, all of my personal iMessages come in on both my personal phone and work phone. How do I turn this off?

I recently updated my work iPhone to iOS7 and now all of my iMessages from my personal phone are also coming in to my work phone. How do I turn this off? I only want my iMessages to come in to my personal phone.

You can either turn off iMessage on your work phone, use a different Apple ID for iMessage on it (by going to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID), or go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive on your work phone and uncheck your personal phone number under "You can be Reached by iMessage at".

When trying to send a comment to a web site I get a message, Firefox has blocked this site, how can I turn this off?

when trying to send a comment to discussion sites I get an error message that says "Firefox has blocked this site" actions offered "allow"
or "X". When I enter "allow" it ignores the command and the message disappears. A lot of wasted thought and typing. How do I turn this feature off.
