I can't turn off the mute feature

For some reason I can't get sound on my MAC Book Pro. In System Preference, Sound. I can't get the Mute button to uncheck.

There are two ways that your location can be determined. One is thru the Geo-Location feature, which uses WiFi signals on mobile devices; doesn't work on desktop computers unless you have a wireless card installed. Geo-Location can be turned off in Firefox.
The other is by the IP Address for your connection, that can't be turned off in Firefox. You would need to use a Proxy server / service to act as the intermediary connection to hide your true IP Address. It would be easier to use Adblock Plus and just hide those advertisements, then to mess with using a Proxy, IMO.
Not going to be much different with other browsers.

Can you turn off the charging feature when using accessories?

Can you turn off the charging feature when using accessories with the iPad?

You cannot overcharge the battery when using the power adapter. Once the battery is fully charged, the iPad will no longer continue to charge if it is still connected. I leave my iPad on the power adapter for hours on end - on weekends when I am not at work.

These are both worthwhile reading for concerns about the battery and how to properly maintain it.
I know nothing about external speakers with the iPad since I do not use them - but If the speaker is with a dock of some sort that charges the iPad - you should have no worries. If it is a dock that charges the iPad - I know of no way to turn off the charging feature, but it will not shorten the life of the battery anyway as long as the battery is properly maintained and cared for.

How can I turn off the Pinch feature while in IE Browser yet continue to use the writing feature

I found that I can use a stylus pen while in a browser with my HP TouchSmart 300. It works flawlessly to write however when I rest my hand on the screen (to write) it recognizes my hand as one point and the stylus pen as the other and the pinch feature makes my screen big or small. If I could turn off the pinch feature yet leave the writing feature on, all would be perfect. Can anyone help, please

It's not possible, it doesn't use pressure on the screen to sense your stylus or hand, it uses the sensor array around the screen.

Acrobat: How can I turn off the "smart" feature of the select tool

I am trying to figure out how to turn off the feature of the select tool in Acrobat which auto-completes words of my text selections. This feature is a huge nuisance while trying to select code in my textbooks and has caused me to mis-copy examples many times.

The smartness I am referring to is when I try to select text Acrobat will attempt to automatically select the entire word (I can reverse the whole word selection by selecting back one character then going forward, but when I reach the first character of the next word Acrobat will again try to select the entire word). Worse is when I am trying to select text starting in the middle of a word, Acrobat will automatically select the entire word when I get to the last character.
In another program this option is disabled by a clearing the checkbox "When selecting, automatically select the entire word".
I've found an alternative PDF solution which does not have this nuisance, however, this is not an ideal solution...

Can I turn off the touch feature?

Is it possible to disable the touch feature entirely from my tx2 1370? And if so, can I disable touch for all but the pen?
I'm running Windows 7.
Thanks in advance!

I've found 2 different places to disable the touch and to detect the pen only. The N-Trig control panel, and the Pen & Touch configurations. However, even then, the touch screen will respond to my finger (or, more annoyingly, my hand) when I'm writing. This happens even when my pen is close to the screen, or clicking, so that I get long lines across the screen when I'm writing.
Is there anyway to fix this? Can I change my driver to a driver that doesn't support multi-touch, and would that help?
Thanks!

How can I turn off the security lockout features on my Palm Treo 650?

I know the password, but don't seem to be able to turn off the feature.
Post relates to: Treo 650 (Verizon)

If you press the Home button and open Security, you can change "Auto Lock Device" to "Never". Does that do what you want?

How can I turn off the monitor but not the computer on my touchsmart 310..

I leave my computer on at night to keep wireless network going, but I want to turn off just the monitor. All of the advice I've seen is to turn off the touchscreen feature -not the monitor itself. Thank you.

You can set the timing for the display to turn off.
Try this:
Click:
Start.
Control Panel.
Hardware and Sound.
Power Options.
On the left bar you'll find Choose when to turn off the display.
At Turn off the display: there is a drop dowm menu to choose the number of minutes before the display turns off. Make your selection.
Try that and see if it works for you.
I hope this is what you were looking for,

How can I turn off the sound from the original midi or audio tracks when I turned on the duplicate tracks for editing ?

How can I turn off the sound from the original midi or audio tracks when I edit or listen to the duplicate tracks in Logic Pro 9 ?
I'm using iMac desktop with Mac OS X Version 10.7.3. Pls advise.

Dan,
It sounds like one of your preferences has changed.
Go to preferences > audio > general, and make sure "track mute/solo" is set to "CPU saving (slow response)". It is probably set to "Fast " at the moment.
This setting (fast) basically causes immediate muting from the channel strip while your song is in play. This is because the audio is still being read from the hard drive, but the channel strip is simply muted.... like a hardware mixer. When set to "CPU saving", the audio from that track, when muted, is actually stopped from streaming from the hard drive, but there is a couple second delay before the audio is actually muted.
One would think that the fast setting is generally preferable, except when you need to do what you are doing. The only way to keep duplicate copies of channel strips acting independent of one another is to leave this setting on the "CPU saving" setting.
Hope that helps

Can't toggle off the Lock feature

I'm having trouble turning off the lock feature of my Ipod. When I hook it up, everythign turns on, and it updates from Itunes, but it does me no good because I can't do anything with it because the Ipod is locked. Suggestions?
PC Windows XP

The switch could be broken. (??? I don't know, I've heard of it happening before) That would suck. There's nothing you would be able to do about that except send it in to get fixed

How can I turn off the password remember question?

How can I turn off the password remember question? I never use this option on my laptop, as that would not be secure. And on sites with their own "stay logged in" feature, Safari's password memory sometimes interferes. Is there any way to stop Safari from asking me if I want to remember passwords, or am I stuck saying Never for this Site on every site I visit?

Password autofill can be secure or insecure, depending on how you use the computer, but if you want to disable it, select from the menu bar
Safari > Preferences > AutoFill
and uncheck the box marked User names and passwords.

How can I turn off the transition effect in Spaces? - It's making me sick!

How can I turn off the transition effect in Spaces?
Can I do this through the terminal somehow?
I have three monitors and the transition effect is giving me motion sickness.

Hi,
I'm afraid there does not appear to be anyway of turning off the sliding transition in spaces. There's no option to turn it off or to change it to another effect.
I use spaces all the time as I have a 15" MacBook Pro and it's incredibly useful to have a screen dedicated to e-mail and IM and another for Safari and two other screens for applications. There's just not enough screen real estate for all those windows. I think Spaces is one of the most useful user features of Mac OS X.
Maybe we should send in a feature request to Apple? I used to use some third party software to do the same before Spaces was released and it had a selection of transitions or none at all.
Personally, I'm now used to the transitions but as I don't have multiple monitors perhaps I'm being spared the motion sickness!
Good luck.

How can I turn off the beep my incoming callers hear when my phone is busy?

How can I turn off the beep my incoming callers hear when my phone is busy?

I appreciate your concern! This feature is unable to be removed. The only way an incoming caller would not hear this particular beep is if a ringback tone is active on the line.

How can I turn off the sounds of the firefox? I don't want to turn off my whole computer sounds, but just the sounds which comes from the internet. Is there any master button?

All the websites doesn't allow you to turn off the sounds, but that is just the thing I need to do. So how can I turn off the web browsers sounds? This is so small thing, that I refuse to believe that this kind of button doesn't exits.

In Vista you can set the volume and mute setting for each application separately in the volume mixer.
You can click the Volume icon on the Windows Taskbar near the clock and click the Mixer link at the bottom to open the mixer.<br />
You can adjust the volume level for each application in that window.<br />
You will only see the Firefox program in the Mixer if you are on a website that plays sound.
