How do I disable the webpage preview that pops up when I hover my mouse over a tab?

I don't know why this started today, but it is driving me nuts!
I was surfing the net, when all of a sudden I noticed that whenever I hovered my mouse over one of my tabs, a (poorly rendered) preview of the webpage popped up from my mouse. I really do not need this feature. I don't need to have a mini-webpage preview of another tab.
Please, how do I disable this feature?
*note: I have disabled all my add-ons, and still nothing. I disabled my hardware acceleration, and still nothing. Please!

I've never noticed that. Do these old threads shed any light?

Can I disable the URL tooltip that pops up on the bottom of the screen?

Title says it all: I want to disable the url tooltip that appears when hovering over a link. How can I do this?

See the screenshot for Status-4-Evar Preferences. You will want to set '''Links''' to '''''None''''', and probably set '''Status Text''' to '''''None''''', too.

I want to eliminate an autofill choice that pops up when I sign into yahoo using the Firefox browser. I tried yahoo help which said hover over the unwanted line and press delete, but that did not work. I am using a Mac if that makes a difference.

Diaabling the window that pops up when you start recording

I finally got my friend to try Logic and he loves it, but he complains about the window that pops up when you start recording audio. Its not a problem for me but he swears it annoys him so I told him I would find out if it can be removed. So does anyone know if that window can be disabled?

I don't think you can remove it. I agree, that would be a nice option to have.
I think though, that if he were to move it over to a corner of the screen, Logic will remember this placement, and whenever he goes into record, it should open up where he left it, hopefully out of the way enough not to bother him so much...

Is it possible to delete an addressee that pops up when I start a message on Mail

Is it possible to delete an addressee that pops up when I start typing in a name for a new e-mail? The name is not in my Contacts so must relate to an earlier incoming e-mail I have received.

Unfortunately there is no way to delete this remembered addresses in the mail app. I keep reading that eventually they go away if you ignore them - but YMMV on that.
Those addresses have nothing to do with the Contacts app in this regard. The mail app has a mind of its own.
Let Apple know that you would like to see this feature come to the iPad.

The app notification keep popping up when I am another app, how can I stop it. I downloaded it but it still pop up. It's very annoying...

The app notification keep popping up even after downloading, how can I stop it? Thanks

go to Settings > Notification Center > scroll down to the app that is causing the problem > Alert Style and touch the word None under the left-most image of an iPad. An oval will appear around the word to indicate that this is what you have selected

Why does my computer create web connections to addresses in the Amazon, Google and Youtube range when I start Firefox?

I think I already disabled all the updating functions, yet, SOMETIMES when I start Firefox, (with about:blank), my network monitor shows one to five connections to IP addresses mostly in the 74.125.225.x, 74.125.227.x, 74.125.228.x, and 72.21.x.x ranges. Those ranges include Google, Amazon, and Youtube.
I use Kaspersky, and have scanned multiple times for malware, and even had their technical support look into my computer. They see no malware. It is the Kaspersky Network Monitor that revealed the problem.
As I find them happening, I try to jot down the addresses, (quickly, because some of these connections only last a second or two), then add those to a firewall rule I created to try to combat the problem. Yet, next time I start, new addresses are "attacking". Of course, some get away, because I don't get the address jotted down before it goes away. At one point I used masking that ended up keeping me from Google and Youtube, so I have to add the addresses individually, and my block list in that one rule is 13 items long now. The only IPs not in those ranges are 23.5.251.27, and 173.194.46.5. Not sure where those go.
I used to get attacked by addresses in the range that includes Amazon ... 72.21.x.x. I have a separate firewall rule for them that has 33 addresses being blocked.
I should not have to do all that. Firefox should start and just sit there quietly until I start clicking or typing in it. This has been happening in Firefox versions going back to 11. May have gone on before that, but I wasn't tracking it then.
Also, it doesn't always happen, or, more precisely, with addresses I have not already blocked, (because my only way to know it's happening is when the connections are allowed to be made). It does not always happen right after Firefox is up, but sometimes several minutes later. I have started Firefox and just sat and watched the network monitor without doing anything in Firefox, and have seen this happen up to 15 minutes after I start Firefox ... mostly just two or three minutes when there's a delay at all.

Firefox does not do anything but sit on about:blank after I start it as long as I have a firewall rule enabled that completely blocks these subnets:
74.125.222.0/24
74.125.227.0/24
74.125.228.0/24
173.194.46.0/24
173.194.115.0/24
173.194.121.0/24
64.233.171.0/24
54.230.90.0/24
54.230.88.0/24
72.21.194.0/24
72.21.195.0/24
72.21.215.0/24
207.171.163.0/24
Otherwise, Fire fox creates connections to one to five addresses in those ranges. Note that there are more than 5 subnets above, but usually three connections satisfies whatever purpose these connections are being made for. If I had some links or whatever that is causing these connections, I would expect all of them would come up every time.
Also, these connections do not start immediately upon starting Firefox, they wait up to 15 minutes to start ... fifteen minutes of just sitting idle ... no actions on my part that could possibly initiate them. Usually these start within three minutes. A typical ploy of malware is to wait until no one is looking, or the until there's a forest to put their tree in so it won't be noticed.
While the above rules are in place, I do not have access to Amazon, Youtube, or Google, (or any of the various blog sites and services sponsored by Google, including Google Maps and Gmail). That list may not be complete, as I have other firewall rules in place that mainly block individual addresses.
It seems to me as simple as; figure out who owns those subnets, and you have your bad guys. Then go after them.
It's true that I have a bookmarks to Google, Gmail, and Youtube, but these are not "active" bookmarks nor RSS feeds. I have not voluntarily gone to Amazon on this computer.
The traffic being transmitted is unknown. It is usually not extremely large amounts of data ... less than a meg, but I have seen close to a Gig transmitted out of my computer, and over 400 meg transmitted to my computer, when I was not paying attention to block the offender. Even if it's small amounts, things like cookies, path structures, configuration settings, histories, etc. do not involve a lot of data, but, to me, represent a security breach, if someone decides to look at them unsolicited by me, not unlike your landlord, mortgage holder, or neighborhood police officer walking into your home while you're not there, and taking pictures of, or simply inventorying your belongings.
It is VERY much like some sort of backdoor malware. No malware is detected on my computer.
I looked at the suggestion above for OS changes for logging HTTP activity, but the author neglected to include instructions for backing out these changes after using them. If this were to create more jewels in a drawer the thief has access to, reformatting and restoring my drive is not the kind of back out process I enjoy. Therefore it would be foolish to apply them. To me it would be like bungee diving with no bungee. Fun until you hit the bottom. Give me the bungee, let me make sure it's short enough, then I'll dive.

How to disable the onscreen notifications that comes for ios update

We are using the new ipad 2s at kiosk system, while the new ipads that we got are coming with the latest ios but the one we installed earlier are ios 5.0 we do not want any notifications of any sorts that allows the user to get out of the app that we are using. All the other ways of coming out of an app are covered but the one with the ios update notification that comes in the middle of the screen is the only one that is coming in the way. We are testing our app for the new release of ios and are working on it, in mean time we need some solution to disable that blue notification that comes in the middle of the screen and has the two options of cancel and goto settings

What does it mean when the dialogue box that pops up when you want to bookmark a site says " Remove 3 bookmarks?"

Using Firefox 17.0. When I click on "Bookmark a Page" under the star in the dialogue box that appears it may say "Remove Bookmark" or "Remove 3 bookmarks." What does it mean - will it really remove three bookmarks?

'''Try the Firefox Safe Mode''' to see how it works there. The Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.''
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open the Firefox 4.0+ Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Don't select anything right now, just use "'Start in Safe Mode"''
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shift key) to open it again.''
'''''If it is good in the Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.
Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.

How can I disable the menu bar to pop up when I move the cursor to the top of the screen?

Greetings, guys!
I'm completely new to Os X.
I want to know if the menu bar can be disabled not to appear when moving to the screen top.
It unnecessarily appears when I play a shooting game like Contract Killer in Full-screen Mode, in which I occasionally happen to move the cursor to the top.
Thank you...

There are 2 Fullscreen modes for some games. And some games only use 1 of them. The usual Fullscreen that you'd expect, and the one we call "Borderless Window".
The classic Fullscreen utilizes all your display and things like menu bar, OSD's, "Always On Top" windows won't pop up while you are playing. But the Borderless Window is just a window that has the same resolution and dimensions with your desktop, and has no borders. Other elements like menu bars, OSD's and "Always stay on top" windows can get into your way while playing. And it's also slower than the classic fullscreen.
Check if your game offers any option of selecting between these 2 Fullscreen Modes, and select the classic fullscreen mode.

How do i remove the id suggestions that pop up when i'm filling a form or how do i delete the id's which have been logged on from my computer

i want to know how do remove the id suggestion that keep popping up every time i fill a form or try logging on on a site. i got a computer from someone and its bugging when all his ids keep appearing. i've tried removing the saved passwords and everything but everytime i fill a form.. they're still there. is there any way i can get rid of them. thanks.

Select the item (arrow down or move cursor) but don't click on it, then press the "Del", users on a Mac would do the same but must continue to use the older shortcut "Shift+Del".

How do I change the background picture that is shown when i start my Mac?

On the iMacs in my school they have a different name for everyone of the after for example the band Queen and then there is a picture on the inlogg screen with queen on it. So then you log in and there is another background picture after that. I Have a macbook pro and I would like to change that "start-picture".
Right now it´s kind of boring and grey. Can you change it somehow?

It sounds like you're using Adobe Send for Outlook. Correct?
Unfortunately, there is no way to change the default text that is inserted into your message. You'll have to change it each time.
I will pass along your request to the Adobe Send team.

When ever I start I have 2 tabs that open one to my start page the other to a funeral directory. How do I stop the funeral site from opening up when I start firefox?

Every time i log on 2 tabs open.

Firefox lets you set multiple tabs to open when you start up or click the Home button. Not sure how that other one got on there, but you can remove it.
Probably easiest to display your desired home page and close all other tabs in that window. Then use the steps in this article to reset that page as your home page: [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How%20to%20set%20the%20home%20page How to set the home page | How to | Firefox Help].

How do i deal with 'security certificate' issues on my iPad2? I'm unable to answer the security questions that pop up when Im trying to download an app because the pop up does not load properly...

Basically my Ipad2 stopped allowing me to go to sites such as Tumblr a little while ago. It wouldn't display the page properly because of 'security certificate' issues. This in itself would not have been such a problem, but when I went to the App store to try and download the Tumblr App, a pop up appeared asking me to answer some security questions before I could successfully install the App. However, the pop up would not display correctly because of 'security certificate' issues and as a result I can't download any apps from the App Store. Can anyone help with this??

Well, I maged to delete some stuff, download the update...
My Mac mail is still not ok. Still only displays today, yesterday and everything is the 16th of the month previous to this?
