I don't want website names to pop up as I type

When I type a web address into the browser bar, website suggestions show up based on my history. I don't want these to pop up.

Is there a way to turn on auto complete for text that has to be entered repeatedly? I don't want to use a pop up list.

No, not in Number for iOS.

You haven't mentioned any steps you might have tried to correct this so I'll suggest you try the first troubleshooting step. Reset your iPhone. Press and hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Then release the buttons and let the device restart. No data will be lost doing this. It's like rebooting a computer.

How do I remove the digital signature option on Adobe Acrobat 7.x? I don't want it, but it pops up every time I need to sign a form, and I cannot find a way to remove

I created a digital signature to sign forms using Adobe Acrobat 7.x. I really don't want or need this feature, but do not know how to remove it or keep it from popping up every time I need to sign a form. Can anyone help? I'm not that technically savvy, so please explain in layman's terms. Thanks!

It's not clear to me what you're trying to accomplish. If you get rid of your digital ID you will still be prompted to create/add one when you need to sign a form, which you say you still need to do? Do you really just want to e-sign (hand-drawn signature, or stamp) instead of digitally sign? Do the forms you're using have digital signature fields?

I don't want previous info to pop up when I'm filling in forms. How do I keep that from happening?

When I fill in forms, suggestions (previous answers) pop up. I don't want this to happen.
e.g. when I began typing my email address to register, firefox gave me the address as a choice

Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs. 
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. 
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

Suddenly the bottom part of the browser window, under the slide bar, has vanished. I can't see where it says Done, or a website name or all the icons on the right side

The window just ends right below the slide bar. I tried closing the window and reopening it, even restarting the computer, but it didn't fix it. At first I thought the window was too big, so I tried resizing it, but it didn't work.

You have out-of-date plugins with known security issues. You need to update them.
* Macromedia Shockwave for Director Netscape plug-in, version 8.5
**Very old version. Probably best to uninstall before installing new version. Windows Start > Settings > Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs, click "Adobe Shockwave Player 8.5", click Remove. Then install current version.
* Next Generation Java Plug-in 1.6.0_21 for Mozilla browsers (new security update released 10-12-2010)
#'''Check your plugin versions''': http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/
#*'''Note: plugin check page does not have information on all plugin versions'''
#'''Update Shockwave for Director'''
#*NOTE: this is not the same as Shockwave Flash; this installs the Shockwave Player.
#*Use Firefox to download and SAVE the installer to your hard drive from the link in the article below (Desktop is a good place so you can find it).
#*When the download is complete, exit Firefox (File > Exit)
#*locate and double-click in the installer you just downloaded, let the install complete.

Is it safe to download adobe reader for my macbook? i don't want any viruses to pop up

can i download adobe reader for my macbook pro? is it safe or will i be at risk for viruses?

You may be confusing Adobe Flash - which is known for security issues - with Adobe Reader perhaps.
I think you are safe to download Adobe Reader. Always update the software when updates are available since many updates do include security fixes as well as bug fixes and any new features that have been added.
I have always had some version of Adobe Reader on all of my Macs and have never had any virus, Trojan or Malware on any of them.

Pop up is in safari from a third party website and won't let me do anything in safari unless I click on it. I don't want to click on it because it is probably a virus. I hae tried restarting safari and also the computer, but it's still there.

Thomas' answer is the preferred technique. Sometimes, these pop-ups will block you from quitting Safari. In that case, press option+command+esc, select Safari, and Force Quit. Then, use the shift key with Safari when relaunching it, per Thomas' suggestion.

My password pops up everytime I go to enter my email for logging in to a website. This is a shared computer and regardless of that, I don't want my password appearing, unencrypted.

I accidentally typed my email AND password in the email box when logging on to a website. Now my password pops up everytime I go to enter my email for this website. This is a shared computer and regardless of that, I don't want my password appearing, unencrypted. I have cleared the cache, deleted cookies, cleared history, shut down and restarted the computer. How do I keep this from automatically appearing please?

Hmmm, Norton extensions are broken again in Firefox 4.0.1. It seems that Norton didn't allow for Firefox 4.0 security updates when they updated their Firefox extension for Firefox 4.0. Norton says they'll have a fix in two weeks. A Norton user posted a fix in this forum thread.

In Safari menu, under preferences, under privacy, in the window appears the statement: cookies and other website data. A multitude of names appear in the info window, some with extensions, some without, some in cache, some in storage. I don't want 'em.

I don't want all those cookies being stored either in cache or storage, as reported in Safari menu under Preferences, under Privacy. I tell the system to delete them and they come right back. I want to know how to keep those things from peeking in on my traffic. Thank you.

Sorry if this comes to late, I just now came across this thread. I have rtorrent and rutorrent sunning successfully on my x64 Arch Linux install.
Try putting the "SCGIMount /RPC2 127.0.0.1:5000" line in your httpd.conf file right after the LoadModule lines (it's line 124 for me).
I seem to recall it not working when I put it at the end of the file.
Best of Luck!

How can I get rid of this message that keeps popping up: Widevine Media Optimizer Update Available? Don't know what it is but don't want it.

How can I get rid of this message that keeps popping up:
Widevine Media Optimizer Update Available? Don’t know what it is but don’t want it.

Any third-party software that doesn't install by drag-and-drop into the Applications folder, and uninstall by drag-and-drop to the Trash, is a system modification.
Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
Here are some general guidelines. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickYourMac.” First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickyourmac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, contact the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickYourMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickYourMac.” If not, open “BrickYourMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button.
You may have to log out or reboot in order to complete an uninstallation.
If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase your boot volume and perform a clean reinstallation of OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" that purport to remove software.

I want to sync my I phone user name (my current e-mail address) with my iPad, PC user name (old e-mail address.) If I delete that current address in the iPhone, won't I also be deleting it in my other devices? They are synced. I don't want to lose it

I want to sync my I phone user name (my current e-mail address) with my iPad, PC user name (old e-mail address.) If I delete that current address in the iPhone, won't I also be deleting it in my other devices? They are synced. I don't want to lose it. I just want to get it out of the way on my iphone so it doesn't confuse the transfer of ID names and then I want it back again.. I tried deleting the cloud account, being told the current e-mails would be spared. But all it did was pop up a prompt asking me for the password to my still current email ID. So I assume now that I have to go to mail and get rid of the e-mail account. But I'm scared I'll lose everything in my other devices too.

You can change the email address you use as your apple ID. this doesn't mean you have to delete the old email address as email.
When you delete an email from your device, it is only removed from the device, it does not delete your emails or the email account.

Myinfotopic has appeard and now I have adds popping up all the time that I don't want. I feel infected. How can I get rid of it

I really have liked Firefox but now I am having a lot of problems with "myinfotopic" and all the adds that pop up unwanted. I don't know how it got in my computer and I can find no way to get rid of it. I have a service called Answers by Technical Support and they say the problem comes from your website and they can't fix it. There is an add the runs across the bottom of the screen and before I updated Firefox it would just stay on the screen and obscure whatever I was looking at. There would also be adds that would slip out from the side of the screen on each website I went to. Both types of adds could be removed but there was always another one that popped up when I went to a new site. Also, before I updated Firefox pages would just start opening automatically and I have no idea where they were coming from.
On your browser I also have the security warning coming up 2 times every time I go to my start page to try a new search for something..
I like your browser better than any I have tried but I will have to change if you can't help me fix this.
Please advise what I can do.

Try removing these extensions:
* AllCCheeappPreiicie
* DownSave
Open the Add-ons page using:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. If they can be removed great, if they can only be disabled, disable them for the moment.
Usually a link will appear above a disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the add-ons page and click the link as the last step.
Does that help?
To continue the clean-up:
(1) Windows Control Panel, Uninstall a Program. Click the "Installed on" column heading to see the most recent infiltrations, I mean, installs. Check the install dates often reveals what was bundled with what. Try to uninstall everything you don't want.
(2) Supplement your regularly security scans with the malware cleanup tools listed in this article: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]].
Can you get back to normal?

I assume Apple got their data from somewhere like the NHS (or american health board equivalent). Hopefully as nick101 says, it will become customisable in future Apple Watch updates.
On the NHS website, this is stated as the recommended activity time for adults aged 19-64:
One way to do your recommended 150 minutes of weekly physical activity is to do 30 minutes on 5 days a week.
All adults should also break up long periods of sitting with light activity. Find out why sitting is bad for your health.
What counts as moderate-intensity aerobic activity?
Examples of activities that require moderate effort for most people include:
walking fast
water aerobics
riding a bike on level ground or with few hills
doubles tennis
pushing a lawn mower
hiking

rollerblading
volleyball
basketball

How do I turn off 'additional plug-ins' pop-up reminder? I don't want them installed! Audio and video ads are annoying.

How do I turn off 'additional plug-ins' pop-up reminder? When I'm surfing websites or Facebook, for example, I keep getting the little pop-up, that reduces my screen size, saying additional plug-ins are available to play all content. I don't want them installed! Audio and video ads are annoying. If I want it I'll click it.

Type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit Enter.
''If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.''
Pref = '''plugins.hide_infobar_for_missing_plugin''' - double-click that preference to ''toggle'' it to '''true'''
Then restart Firefox.
