I want to completely avoid Google in protest of new privacy policies
With Google's announcement of data collection beginning March 1, 2012 I want to completely avoid any use, and thus any support of this company.
Can Firefox be modified to leave Google out or do I have to go back to IE and Bing?
Google needs to hear this from others, too.
You can remove Google altogether from your tool bar through Manage Search Engines. Click to the left of the Google name, on the icon and that should enable a drop down menu. At the bottom of that menu it will have Manage Search Engines, click on that and you should see a list of the search engines available, you can delete Google and add others, have only one, there are several options available. I agree with you regarding Google. However, I also live by this Golden Rule: Never write down anything you don't want anyone to know. This applies to websites, social media (don't use them, myself), etc. Hope this helps.

How to completely avoid alignment procedure after a new cartridge install?
Is there a way to completely disable the annoying alignment procedure, every time I change the cartridge? I need to change cartridge about every month, and this is very annoying.
I want to make alignment only when I need it.
I have an HP Deskjet 3050.Hello,
Aligning the cartridges ensures high-quality output, The HP All-in-One prompts you to align the cartridges every time you install a new cartridge. I am sorry there is no way to turn that feature off.
I work for HP, However, I am speaking for myself and not for HP -
Completely avoid passing of Oracle user informations thru http
Hi friends,
I am using Oracle 10g Application Server & Oracle 10g Forms & Report services. But I have to pass all the parameters thru a query String. So the problem is all the endusers can view the Database details by taking the properties.
#) I want to set the Database Logon information some where in any confiruration file and this should read when calling forms. so that i can avoid passing of Database user informations. Is there any way to configure like this?
#) Multiple applications are running on Oracle AS and each applications are using defferent schema. How can I set the different User Informations in the configuration file.
I want to completely avoid passing of Oracle user informations thru http.
thanks & regards
LakmalHello Lakmal,
As I said, you can edit formsweb.cfg and a user parameter section. For example, lets take yur sample url:
add this section to formsweb.cfg:
[change]
userid=lakmal/mabil@ewis
form=change.fmx
note:
it is better to make the edit at EM console itself.
Then when you will run the form use this url:
http://dunhinda.com/forms90/f90servlet?config=change
The url has been shortened and your username and password is hidden.
and if your user would run diffeent forms, you can drop the form=change.fmx and speficify form name in the url like
section in formsweb.cfg
[lakmal]
userid=lakmal/mabil@ewis
then the url will now be:
http://dunhinda.com/forms90/f90servlet?config=change&form=formname.fmx

I am out of space on my Macbook Air and have a Time Machine Backup. I want to complete reset my mac, but wonder if I can pick and choose what I restore to my computer? Can I also use my time machine backup as external storage as well for the files I don't need everyday?
If you are using "Restore from Time Machine Backup" option from OS X Recovery, you can only choose from the broad categories presented.
... Can I also use my time machine backup as external storage as well for the files I don't need everyday?
To be clear, if you are asking if you can use the volume containing your Time Machine backup to store additional, non-Time Machine files, the short answer is yes.
It's not a good idea though, since the Time Machine backup will eventually fill all available space, after which it begins to remove old, "expired" backups to make room for newer ones. The presence of additional files doesn't change that fact, and Time Machine will not erase them, but you will encounter a dilemma should you want to store additional files on that volume when there is no remaining space. You will have to make room for them on your own, by deleting existing files. Furthermore, since Time Machine cannot back up its own volume, those additional files will not be backed up by Time Machine.
The easy solution for what you describe is to purchase additional external storage. External USB hard disk drives have become very inexpensive; about $55 will buy a perfectly suitable 1 TB drive.
You can also choose to replace your MacBook Air's internal storage with a larger capacity one. Look for a suitable replacement from OWC / MacSales:

That gets a little more expensive but it is the optimum solution. -
New problem, Lycos Mail is my home page. When I open a new window I usually get Google search, which is what I want. Now, somehow when I open a new window I get Yahoo search. How do I change it back to Google?
Thank you,
RandyA new tab opens by default as a blank tab (about:blank).
If that isn't the case then an extension has changed that behavior.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
You can middle-click or hold down Ctrl and left-click the Home button on the Navigation toolbar to open the Home page in a new tab.
You can look at this extension to set which page to open in a new tab:

Hi,
This is my first post here. I searched around and couldn't find an exact answer.
I use Windows XP. I got an iPhone about 2 months ago, and before that I had never used iTunes before.
I'm a musician and a music lover, so I'm always wanting to transfer music to and from my iPhone. When I first got my phone, I downloaded iTunes and proceeded to create a huge clusterf*ck. It was transferring every single audio file on my computer to my phone, which I do not want to happen.
I must say that, so far, I've found iTunes incredibly non-intuitive and incredibly confusing.
Anyway, what I would like to do is completely start over if possible. And I'm not just talking about uninstalling and re-installing iTunes. (I've already done that probably 5 or 6 times for various reasons.)
I mean that I want to completely restore my iPhone to its factory settings and start completely over with iTunes as if I'd never used it before.
My biggest complaint is that it's a total, f*cking mess. It searched my entire computer for audio files, and so everything (little sketch recordings of song ideas, etc.) on my PC is showing up in iTunes, which I do not want. I only want the files that are in my "My Music" folder to show up, because those files are neatly organized into folders of albums, etc. As it is now, I have this mess of 283 items in the "song" category in iTunes, and most of them are not songs---they're just scratch recordings or whatever (things I only want on my computer).
So ... I know there's a way to bring the iPhone back to factory settings. But is there a way to do this with iTunes? I remember that the first time I installed it, it asked me some things like where I wanted to look for audio files and things like that. But now when I reinstall it, it doesn't do that anymore.
I really hate the iTunes interface, and I've tried several other alternatives. Sharepod seemed perfect, because I would just love a simple drag/drop interface like that. But unfortunately, it won't work properly for me. It won't recognize my photos, my purchased songs, or my voice memos. And it won't work when I try to copy a song from the PC to my phone.
And, of course, iTunes won't let you copy a song from the phone to your computer (does anyone know why?).
I just want a way to do both of those things in an easy fashion.
For the record, here are the alternatives I've tried, and none of them have worked completely for one reason or another:
Sharepod
Copytrans Manager (this works well, but it won't let you copy songs from the phone to the computer)
iFunbox (worked great for me on everything except music)
Is there a way to completely restart on iTunes as well as my iPhone? If I do this, will I lose the apps I've purchased? Or are they always available to me now from the app store to redownload?
I know this is much more of a ramble than a question, but I'm so frustrated at this point.No one has any ideas on this?
Thanks -
I accidentally downloaded a website for coupons and its toolbar keeps popping up at the top of my internet window. I went to the toolbar options and unchecked it but when I get back into the internet it is up again. I want it completely gone so that it doesn't even have a chance to be seen. I don't want it. How do I get rid of it?
I would start off with Firefox's Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then look for unwanted extensions and try the Remove button.
If the Remove button is missing, this usually means the extension was installed through the Windows installer. In that case, check for it in the Windows Control Panel, Uninstall a Program. Clicking the "Installed on" column header will bring the most recent additions to the top for easier spotting.
After you get rid of it, assuming you can remove it in one of those two ways, I suggest "mopping up" with some malware removers. This article lists tools that other Firefox users have found helpful: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]].
Any luck? -
Can't open web pdf files from my newly installed Reader DC because my IMac wants a completed license to use agreement to Reader, and I never saw that page during installation. How do I get past this?
You need to accept the EULA on first launch of the Reader DC application.
Go to the Applications folder and launch Adobe Acrobat Reader DC.
This will bring up the EULA.
Select the "Agree" button if you agree with the terms
Assuming you selected the "Agree" button, Reader DC should open.
You should now be able to open PDF files in your web browser. -

I want to completely eliminate Babylon form Firefox. Nothing seems to help. What can I do?
When I downloaded Firefox, several features of Babylon appeared with it. I managed to disable Babylon by changing my homepage to Yahoo but I want to completely remove all features related to Babylon.
You can try and force the extension to install and be enabled however it will not mean it will just work without any issue.

My blackberry curve 8530 shut off and now it doesn't want to completely turn on it stays loading.
My blackberry curve 8530 shut off and now it doesn't want to completely turn on it stays loading.
Hello !
Try the following.
Just pull out the battery and reinsert it again for the POWER restart.
Once it reaches to the loading screen, just connect your device to the charger and keep it idol for 2-3hours.
At times BlackBerry Curve 8520 takes longer time then the usual for rebooting.
Hope this resolves your Problem!

I want to complete information about Payrolls in abap hr?
i want to complete information about Payrolls in abap hr?
Hi,
SAP HR Payroll Overview
In a broad sense, payroll accounting is the calculation of remuneration for work performed by an employee. More specifically, payroll accounting consists of a variety of processes that are becoming increasingly important due to the employers increased obligation to supply benefits and medical welfare.
These benefits are products of:
Labor law
Tax law
Contribution law
Benefits law
Civil law
Reporting law
Information law
Statistics law
The remuneration is calculated in the following steps:
1. Calculation of gross remuneration
2. Calculation of net remuneration
Gross and net pay comprises the individual payments and deductions which are calculated during a payroll accounting period, and are received by an employee. These payments and deductions are included in the calculation of pay by uniquely distinguishable wage types.
Payroll is predefined in the SAP HR system for many countries specifically (e.g. Payroll United States, Payroll Spain, Payroll Japan) and all other countries' payroll comes under the heading of "International Payroll".
