I want to disable versions and autosave

This is simply idiotic. Is there ANY way to disable this?
I dont like at all the feature, but maybe i could live with it if i were not loosing files. I'm glad i noticed it only after a day of work. they give an option to disable this or i im giving my mac to my wife.
Also, i dont know who the **** designed this feature, but not everyone working on a file wants to save it, i need to touch a lot of files in a day, sometimes just to get to something i can copy and paste in my final document, if i have to bother about wich "version" was the good one and wich one is not... its like i now have twice the work.
This is not making my experience simpler, its complicating my work to the max.
On top of that, versions and autosave does not work as it is supposed over network (my work is on a RAID NAS, not on my ssd), but it tries to save the file every fu**ing time. I do a lot of copy/cut/paste from files i just dont want to save, and today i had to look for 4 files into my backup just to recover them. That means Lion make me loose information. Something a reliable OS should not be doing nowadays.

Jiminez, you're one of many.
I have my own list of 30 reasons why Lion s***s. Until they're all fixed I'm staying with Snow Leopard, although I fear Apple has gone down the toilet with Lion and no-one is willing to put a hand down there and fish it out.
Autosave is one of them, and Versions is another.
Another, uh, feature you haven't found yet is that all your files will be automatically locked after a certain number of days. Don't ask me why. But it's a royal PITA. The Apple fanboys think it's absolutely fantastic.
I feel sorry for your wife. Don't do this to her. You might L-O-S-E her.

Still hate versions and autosave

I've given it a week and I still can't get used to the save version/duplicate set up. I understand what they are meant to do, but it is just an awkward workflow for what I do. I hate duplicating an existing file just to edit it and save it as a new one. I also dislike not being able to save a version as a word doc without duplicating it to do so. I don't work with large documents, mainly notes for lectures and keynote presentations. The version I save is the version I edit. If I were writing a book or disseration I would love to have access to versions/autosave, but as it is the old save/save as set up served my purposes well. Also, keynote now has the nasty habit of saving my work while I'm typing. I don't notice this in Pages, but it is disruptive in Keynote.

I'm beginning to think that because versions and autosave were available to beta testers only in programs from Apple, like Preview, that they didn't get a whole lot of testing. I've found autosave to be transparent in Pages and Numbers but Keynote is another story, just as you've found. I was editing a 90+ slide presentation for my Intro to CS class and autosave was intrusive. The following day I was working in Photoshop and I starting thinking about autosave there. Not pretty as it is.
As for the loss of Save As... if you use a macro program like QuicKeys or Keyboard Maestro you can easily recreate it. I tested it with Keyboard Maestro and it worked just fine.

in foreign country, want to disable email and data but want to text? Is that possible? How to do it?

No, that can't be done. All desktops will show what is in the 'Desktop' folder in your home folder.

I clicked on "remember this computer" accidentally. I want to disable this and not have my sign in name and password already there. How do I disable "remember this computer"?

When wanting to sign in for email, a screen pops up asking if you want "to remember this computer"? I accidentally clicked on remember instead of the X, to close it, and now my computer has my email name and password in place whenever you want to sign in. I share this computer with 4 other family members, and I do not want my name and password remembered on the computer. How do I get the remember this computer changed to no?

I want to STOP the automatic loading of the tab that tells me "Almost There!" or "Your Almost There" suggesting that I download the new version. I DO NOT WANT A NEWER VERSION- and I am SICK of seeing this tab open when I start Firefox. How do I stop this?

''Duplicate post, continue here - [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/781986]''
I find this reminder/suggestion to upgrade Firefox EXTREMELY annoying. How do I stop it? What about:config settings do I change-- because I have been unable to find the one that will do the trick.

See these articles for some suggestions:

* [[How to set the home page]] - Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' symbols

How to disable drag and drop feature for a document library?

Hi
How can I disable drag and drop feature for a document library? Do I have an option to disable it from the SharePoint's feature set?
Or can I disable it using a script? If so, how?
Regards
Paru

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to disable drag and drop feature for a document library.
Drag and drop in SharePoint 2013 is a feature that depends on HTML5, which requires version of browser, SharePoint by default doesn’t has feature to disable or enable this.
You can try disabling the drag and drop feature by disabling an add-on in Internet Explorer, or
using Internet Explorer 9 or lower.
Here is a similar thread for your reference:

New application version and subprocesses

Hi,
I have a workflow in LC ES2 which uses some subprocesses that are contained in the same application. Now I want to use versioning and create a new version of the application. Unfortunately the process V1.1 seems to use the subprocesses of V1.0. If I undeploy version 1.0 and deploy version 1.1 the process stalls, because the subprocess V1.0 is not found.
If I open the main process v1.1 in workbench and open a subprocess by using the right click menu, workbench opens the v1.0 version of the subprocess.
I would expect the new version to be consistent in using all elements and assets of the new version, not to mix up with old elements. espacially when the old version is undeployed. If I redefine a subprocess call, all the input and output variables are reset to empty. So reconfiguring all subprocess calls would result in a lot of work and maybe some errors...
The documentation describes what I want: the newest version of a subprocess should be invoked... (http://help.adobe.com/en_US/livecycle/9.0/workbenchHelp/help.htm?content=003741.html).
Is this a bug in LC ES2? Is this fixed in SP1? I think I rember LC ES to work as expacted...
Thanks and regards,
Lars

This bug is currently in the team's backlog. Unfortunately there is no workaround.

HT3209 HD version started download. I want only SD version! How to proceed?

HD version started download, BUT I want only SD version! I stop download, try selecting SD on purchase page and download again. HD starts again.

When buying HD versions of shows, only the HD copy will automatically download now (probably due to requests from people who don't need/want the SD version and complained about it being forced on them). The SD copy can be downloaded from your purchases area in iTunes. On the main iTunes Store page, go to Purchases under the Quick Links and then select TV shows. Click the "Not On This Computer" button. Uncheck the "Download HD when available" box and you should then see the SD copies of the shows and be able to download them.
Regards.

I want the old version of iMovie

The new version of Imovie that came on my MacBook Pro is extremely difficult to use. I want the old version and am having a hard time figuring out how to get it without downloading other things that I don't think I need. Please help!! I just want the old Imovie software!!

You're in the wrong section bud! Although I believe you will not be able to downgrade without purchasing the software off eBay or Craigslist, you may have better luck here:
