I would like to block the downloads window. Please tell me how. I don't need it. It's a nuisance.

No details necessary. Simple question.

Thanks, Tony. The "General" tab that opened first when I clicked Tools => Options didn't contain that setting, but when I clicked the "General" icon (first icon in the menu bar at the top), I saw your recommended selection.
Nice, simple solution. I'm looking forward to not seeing the downloads window again.
I appreciate your help.

  • Looking to run windows on my MBPro through Bootcamp or Parallels, but would like to use a downloaded Windows 7, is it possible to install without the Windows Disc?

    Looking to run windows on my MBPro through Bootcamp or Parallels, but would like to use a downloaded Windows 7, is it possible to install without the Windows Disc?
    Need to set up a workstation on my MBPro that will only run on Windows. Im willing to use Bootcamp or Parallels to see what works best. Need to get this set up this week to enable working from home on my MB - rural and hoping to buy Windows 7 online - am I able to get windows working through either bootcamp or Parallels without the actual Windows disc? Bootcamp set up guide calls for a disc.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    First, the answer to your question is yes, it IS possible to install Windows in Parallels without a disc, using an .iso image file.
    Boot Camp since OS X 10.8 also installs Windows without a disc: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4889551?tstart=0
    Parallels has complete documentation, series of forums, and a knowledgebase. You can also download the current release of Parallels 9 and try it for free for a few weeks before you decide to purchase it.
    The Parallels Desktop for Mac product page: http://www.parallels.com/products/desktop/
    The Desktop for Mac forums: http://forum.parallels.com/forumdisplay.php?58-Parallels-Desktop-for-Mac
    Documentation: http://www.parallels.com/support/desktop-virtualization/desktop/#c12970
    The Knowledgebase for Desktop for Mac: http://kb.parallels.com
    The primary difference between a Boot Camp installation and a Parallels installation is that in the Boot Camp installation, you're installing Windows into a separate partition on your internal mass storage device (hard drive or SSD) and then rebooting your Mac directly into Windows.
    In Parallels, you're always running OS X on the Mac and Parallels is running a Windows virtual machine.
    Not to get too technical here, but it is also possible for Parallels to run an installed Windows Boot Camp partition as a virtual machine. If you're evaluating system performance with a trial copy, that might be the way to go, because you only have to install Windows once on Boot Camp as a dual-boot system, then install Parallels Desktop and run the Boot Camp partition as the virtual machine.
    There is a performance difference between the two, with the Boot Camp Windows installation being faster, but without the convenience of running both Mac and Windows applications simultaneously offered by Parallels. Sometimes that convenience outweighs a performance hit.
    I can't give you more Mavericks and Parallels 9 specifics, because I'm currently running Windows 7 with Parallels 7 on OS X 10.8.5. Parallels 7 will not run on OS X 10.9 Mavericks.
    I've been using Parallels (to run a few old rarely-used WIndows applications with features that would require a steep learning curve and major expense to purchase and learn a similar Mac app) occasionally since Parallels 3 and Windows XP. With each new release of OS X, each new release of Parallels, and each new Windows release, there are ALWAYS 'early adopter' bugs that get worked out over time.

    Ok so sorry for clogging the community!! I figured it out - you have to copy your videos into itunes manually. I did that, synched and all good!

  • I would like to disable the small window that has started coming in with incoming Mail

    Hi,  I would like to disable a small window that has started arriving whwn I get incoming mail.  That is, when I open the message, it displays on the right screen, but also there is a small page/window that appears with the message to the left.  Thanks for any suggestions.  Using the new Mavericks 10.9 MBP.

    The small window sounds like a Notification. You can turn it off with:
    System preferences > Notifications > Mail. Select none.
    I'm not sure what you mean about the small page/window thing. Maybe you can take a screenshot of the mail window and post it here. Check out the options in Mail > View

  • The link "go to download page" in the downloads window is greyed out, how do I enable it?

    When I open the Firefox downloads window and select a file I had previously downloaded and right click on it, the "Go To Download Page" selection is greyed out, it wont let me click on it.

    i downloaded this. when I add it to Firefox is says it's incompatible with Firefox v22. v22 is messing with my "flow". I hate updates that mess with how my stuff was working beforehand.
    hmm, wonder can I go back to the previous version of Firefox that WAS working with my "download" button showing on every youtube page i viewed. how does one go back to the previous version of Firefox (better question, what WAS the previous version of Firefox?). I am not liking v22 and have taken it off auto update now.

  • HT1390 i rented a movie on my ipad but I am unable to download it on my ipad not enough space.  So now I would like to watch the movie on my laptop .. but i don't know how to get the movie on my computer.. help?

    I rented a movie last night on my ipad but I am unable to download it on my ipad I have no space.. so I want to watch it on my laptop computer but do not know how to get the rented movie on it.  I checked the itune store and they said I have it rented.. So I need help on what to do to download it on my computer so I can watch it any suggestions?  Thanks.

    Because rented movies from the iTunes Store are normally a one-time download per rental, and if that download was to an iOS device, they can't be transferred to any other device.
    Does that hold in the other sense as well? A rental on the computer is non-transferrable to the iGadget?

  • Would like to block the popup website, which firefox menu I need to set

    Once I am on internet, there is the other website automatically popup very often, I do need to block them, but I can not find the feature in Firefox to set. Now it's still popup!!!

    Firefox has a pop-up blocker built in: check Tools > Options > Content.
    However, popups can come from other sources, particularly external programs. To rule out the possibility of malware or spyware, try these scanners if you can access them:
    HouseCall : http://housecall.trendmicro.com/
    Malwarebytes Anti-malware : http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php
    SUPERAntiSpyware : http://www.superantispyware.com/
    Also, disable any nonessential add-ons under Tools > Add-ons (especially Themes and Extensions).

  • My desktop icons all sj=how the FF logo. I would like to see the company or website logo. How can I do this? Thnaks!

    Hello,
    I switched from Explorer to FireFox recently and all the shortcut icons I've created since all show the FireFox logo. How do I get the shortcuts to show the website/company logos they link to. It's enough to go back to Explorer. Driving my eyes crazy.
    Thanks.

    Many thanks for your reply, Waka – guess you're right that it's a new add on or bust... I still find it odd that such a common UI feature across mobile browsers is unavailable in FF24 either as an option under settings or as an add-on. Surely, I'm not the only person who finds this puzzling?
