HT4753 Is there a way to disable autosave and version in Mountain Lion

Hi,
Is there a simple way to specify to witch app we want it enabled or disabled, instead of using command lines in terminal.
Or disable it permenantly using preferences ?
If it it possible, I have the same question for Lion.
Thanks to all.

Thanks a lot for your suggestion to report with Apple. In fact, this would be so easy to enable or disable it globaky from the system preferences, and or make it available from within the application preferences. In that way, each of us would be able to manage witch app is doing what.
If this is it, maybe we could ask Apple to give us some more room to manage our files.
Thank again.
Regards.

Can you turn off autosave and versions in mountain lion?

Is this possible?

Still haven't checked in ML, got delayed with real-world things like doctors, but FWIW, this Terminal command turns off auto-save globally:
defaults write -g ApplePersistence -bool no
You might be able to do it on a by-apo basis. E.g., for TextEdit, try:
defaults write com.apple.TextEdit ApplePersistence -bool no
Finally, since versions are stored in each user's hidden ~/Library/Saved Application State/, lock the specific app subfolder,
com.vendorname.appname.savedState/, to preclude versioning.

Is there any way to disable F14 and F15 brightness controls?

I'm wondering if anyone knows a way to disable the F14 and F15 brighness controls that appear to be built into the Apple OS? I calibrated my cinema display a couple of days ago and was supprised to find that I can still change the display brightness by just bumping the keyboard.
Thank you for any help that anyone can give me.

Unfortunately it does not seem possible to disable the brightness keys.
I found this Apple developer technote document.
on page 12 question #19 reads:
How do I disable the video brightness keys available on some keyboards?
Answer: There is currently no way to disable those keys.
send Apple Product Feedback requesting that feature.
good luck

Is there a way to disable drag-and-drop on the pages panel?

Hi, I'm using Indesign CS3 on Windows XP. My computer is a laptop and the problem I'm having is that when I have the pages panel open, I have sometimes drag-and-dropped pages of a document into a new order without meaning to (the laptop touch pad seems made for these butterfingers-type moves). The documents that I'm laying out are several hundred pages long, so sometimes I don't notice that I've screwed a few pages up until much later. If there is any way to just turn this feature off, that would be great. Due to the arrangement in which I usually work best (on a sofa), I would prefer not to have to attach an actual mouse to the laptop. Thank you for any help.

Not that I know of.

Is there a way to Disable "Takes" and go back to older way of working

In Logic 7 you could just "Create tracks and mute in cycle record" for audio recording, now we have the new take folder as standard (Logic Pro 8)
Can we disable this function as im not keen on it?

It sounds a bit like some kind of widespread prejudice…
No, that's a bit of a naive statement, imo. I've just had a conversation about this on another forum.
I'm with the OP - I wish the take folder thing could be optionally turned off so we could revert to the old pre-8 behaviour.
I had developed a very fast and efficient workflow over years - for example, while a vocalist was recording takes in cycle mode, I would be splitting, colouring, muting, naming, selecting and rejecting phrases as we went.
This is much faster than doing a bunch of takes, and then comping them afterwards.
Unfortunately, this is now no longer possible in LP8, as you cannot do a "create and mute tracks in cycle record" as you could do before (this option still exists in LP8 for MIDI, but not for audio). At least it was, I haven't looked at it again for a while, but I seem to remember it was the case.
Also, quick swipe comping will not let you nudge segments in time, so you have to do your comping, then move the comp to a flattened file, then split and retime when you need to do this. And you certainly cannot comp or organise your takes while recording.
While there are some nice things about quick swipe comping, it's not a fully developed solution, and at least for me and some others, the newer workflow is *far less efficient* than how we used to do it.
Good reasons for being able to optionally turn take folder management off.
In fact, when people would ask for this take folder method pre-8, I was against the feature. I find having multiple "hidden" tracks on one "real" track (like how some other DAWs did it) a much inferior solution than Logic, which could have multiple tracks all on the same audio object - so everything was visible and directly editable - none of this "choose which take to play" stuff. This was (and still is) a great feature of Logic.

Is there a way to see Mail in Finder with Mountain Lion?

I've got my mail synced to Gmail and sometimes I click on All Mail, so the computer procedes to try to download everything I've got.
I really would like to go into Mail in the Finder & delete the contents of that folder, which I'd done in Leopard, Snow Leopard, and Lion.
Anybody know if it's gone or if I just can't find it?
Thanks!

I may just have to go to the darn Genius Bar and ask them what's going on.
You did click Go while holding the option key down, didn't you?
One more thing, check the Gmail account setup, if it is Imap DO NOT delete the content of the All Mail folder !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is there a way to disable animation?

I have multiple sensory issues, including visual and auditory issues.
Is there any way to disable animation and autoplay, everywhere? Because parts of Mac OS X use animation, Apple's "help" feature uses animation, this web site uses animation, many other web sites use animation and autoplay... It hurts.
I would like to be able to enable things if and when I want to watch things, but given the choice I would rather be able to disable it all everywhere than have it enabled almost everywhere.
I currently use Firefox which has separate tools to blocked animated/pain-gifs, block various types of video, block ads, etc. I can't find similar tools for Safari, and I need some similar tools for Yosemite itself.

I tried the terminal command as well and didn't get it to work. Does anyknow how to do this now? I'm in ML.

Is there a way to disable previously viewed iMessages from appearing as Messages notifications when waking my MacBook Pro from sleep?

Is there a way to disable previously viewed iMessages from appearing as Messages notifications when waking my MacBook Pro from sleep? Regardless of whether I am using iMessage from my iPhone or iPad, when I open my MBP, I get attacked by Messages notifications for iMessages I've obviously already seen or responded to. Is there a way to change this? Are others having this issue?
Additionally, previous iMessages sent or received from those devices sometimes don't populate into the Messages window on the MBP. I haven't been able to identify when or what causes this; sometimes it just doesn't seem to work (and I verified that the messages sent/received were, in fact, iMessages and not SMS).
Thanks - any help or insight would be appreciated!

First you need to determine what laptop model you have; then we can help you. A Mac Book Pro cannot run OS 9.1.
With your Mac booted up, click on the  at the far left of the menu. Then click on About This Mac. It will show what version of OS you are running. What is the version?
A MBP will be running something like version 10.x.
If you are running version OS 9.x, you don't have a Mac Book Pro.

Is there a way to disable push mail from Yahoo? It's draining my battery

I'm on the prepaid plan and every 10-15 minutes my iphone turns on with a "The last transaction cost $0.00" message. I don't mind the message (although it is a bit annoying) but my problem is that this turns the LCD on for about 2 minutes at a time.
I charged my battery to 100% last night, haven't used it at all today and after just turning it on a few minutes ago I had the "Your battery life is at 10%" message followed by a 5% remaining message a few minutes later.
I've heard that it's the yahoo push mail service thats causing the phone to give the message (since it connects to the internet). My Yahoo account is my main one and I'd hate to have to login to yahoo's site each time to check it (the email functionality was a big selling point for me with the iphone). ATT/Apple don't seem to want to disable this message/"Feature", so I'm guessing I would need to step in and do something on my end.
Is there any way to disable yahoo mail from "pushing" messages to my phone? I can hit the Check Mail button if I have to.

Hi Everyone,
To give an update on the situation: I disabled the Yahoo account and it seems to make a VERY NOTICEABLE difference in battery life - prior to this my battery would drain quite rapidly but since disabling it it's only lost about 15-20% over the past 24 hours (and thats with using the video/music/internet functions for about an hour and a half).. Prior to this it would have been close to drained under the same circumstances.
Also, to confirm, the "Your last transaction cost 0.00" messages only appear when accessing the internet manually now. before they appeared every 10-15 minutes with no interaction from myself at all (while it was sitting idle, while watching videos, while charging, while in my pocket, etc..)
I do have it set to only check Manually but Yahoo would seem to check on it's own even though this setting is checked (I'm guessing it has to do with the Push setting). Aside from draining the battery, it was quite annoying having 30 or so "Your transaction cost $0.00" messages to click through whenever I turned on the phone.
I did have the screen set to shut off after 1 min, but the 'your transaction cost..' messages would first wake the iphone up, the screen would stay bright for about 30 seconds, dim for about 30 seconds, then turn on bright again for 1 minute until it shut off. I'm guessing the screen (being on for about 10-15 minutes per hour due to this) and the fact that yahoo accesses the internet on such a frequent basis are what cut the battery life down.
I really wish I could make Yahoo work more like Gmail and have it manually search for new mail
