In Address Book how can I stop the cursor from wandering while editing a page?

At times when I am editing a page in Address Book, the cursor wanders, so the text I am typing shows up in the wrong place. Often it deletes exist text. Why does this happen? How can I prevent it?

Does this only happen in the Address Book or does it do this all the time and causes only issues in the Address Book?

How can I stop the cursor from being dragged outside the bounds of an intensity graph in LV 7.1?

Currently, an intensity graph cursor can be dragged outside the graph bounds, and the cursor position continues to change as if the graph had no bounds.

You can maintain the cursor (and the graph scales...) between defined boundaries programmatically, using an attribute node. Not a very elegant solution, since there is some quivering. See the example.vi.
Of course, if the user need to modify the scales (zoom in/out...), there will be some additional work ! :-)
Hope this help.

When I record an audio track, there is a waveform. When I stop recording, the waveform disappears and becomes a straight line. It also disappears from the track edit window. But the sound is there. How can I stop the waveform from disappearing?

When I record an audio track using Logic Pro X, there is a visible waveform which appears as I record. When I stop recording, the waveform disappears and becomes a straight line. It also disappears from the track edit window. But the sound is still there. How can I stop the waveform from disappearing? And can I do something to view it after it has disappeared? Anyone know the anser?

In Logic:
Preferences/Audio Set Recording Delay to 0 <zero>
This should always be set to zero unless a specific set of circumstances exist and you're audio drivers do not report position correctly.
On occasion, usually when importing a Logic 9 project, Logic-X randomly changes this to a negative/positive number. It's actually a bug in Logic, as it should always display the waveform.

Hi...I have this problem, everytime I want to print something out the mac asks me for the computer password...that is really becoming annoying after. That happened since I upgraded to mountain lion. How can I stop the computer from asking me that?

If you are printing via a Windows shared printer and it is the Windows user account that you are being prompted for then you can save this in the Keychain, as shown below.

while True:
and just indent everything else under it
Ends when you press ^C.
if you wish to have a way to break out of the loop, say, when you press enter at the VPC number without entering anything, add the following after your vpc input:
if not vpc:
break
which will break out of the while loop and end your program.

Use VMware Fusion? But seriously, Fusion does what you want. It just puts a mini VM control menu at the top when running full screen (and that's configurable, too), so the main menu bar doesn't appear at all. Which means that it's up to Parallels to handle this. Are you running Parallels 7, which is designed for Lion? If you are and Parallels still doesn't offer something similar, you need to contact Parallels.

How do I stop the cursor from spontaneously going to Line one space one in Notes?

How do I stop the cursor from spontaneously going to Line one Space one in Notes?
I am currently working on a MacBook Pro connected by Wi-Fi or Blue Tooth to my 16GB iPhone 4S; and supposedly to iCloud. I install every upgrade on each computer till the computer can take no more. My current MacBook Pro continues to accept upgrades.
I have been dealing with Address Book foibles since it first came out and the problems seem to get worse rather than resolved.
Problem #1: When a Company Name is checked to take precedence over a personal name the record/file does not surface during searches. This has happened for years on all my Macs, including most recently my MacBook Pro and its predecessor PowerBook G4. How do I fix this?
Problem #2: The Printing Defaults for Address Book Files are not useful and I can find no way to change them to my own preferences once and for all. I must reset them for every file every time I choose to print a file. Is there some way to set the defaults to MY preferences and only occasionally reset them according to my needs?
Problem #3: When entering information in "Notes" the cursor randomly and spontaneously goes to line one space one as I am entering information. How do I stop this? Then when I cut and paste the misplaced text to where it belongs it may or may not return to once again begin at line one space one and following.
Problem #4: When Printing a Record/File from Address Book I would like to use the whole 8.5" x 11" page. Instead it prints on an 8.5" x 11" page in three columns. Is there a way to format the output? I have not found one and the Mac 'Geniuses' do not know of any.
Problem #5: Subsequent to one of the upgrades in the last year or so, the search feature does not work. (I have had this computer since May 2011). No matter what I type in the search line I am stuck in the 'All' Directory. To find anyone or anything I must scroll through the address book manually. Is there a fix to this?
Problem #6: Sometimes, when I try to sync my MacBook Pro and my iPhone, the records simply duplicate. How d I undo this without manually deleting the duplicates?
Problem #7: Does anyone know of a third party Address-Book-type App that is better than the Apple version and can easily import over 3000 contacts information?

'''I had the same problem when I updated to firefox 4. This is how i fixed it:'''
The problem seems to be caused by the 'New Tab Homepage' add on. So:
# Disable or remove the 'New Tab Homepage' add on and restart firefox.
# Download and install the firefox add on called 'NewTabURL' and restart firefox.
# Click on the Options button for NewTabURL and uncheck 'Select location bar after loading new tab'
# Under the 'Default URL for new tabs' heading, choose 'Home Page'
# Click on the Save button.
Hopefully, problem solved!

How Do I stop the phone from locking while the navigation program is running.

I have a Blackberry 9630 V4.7.1.40. The phone is on an enterprise server network through work. The phone is set to password lock after a couple of min. of non-use. When I have the Sprint Navigation program running, the phone locks after a few min and loses my satellite. I then have to type in a password to unlock it and I then get the signal back.
I called Sprint and they said to press a button after every couple of min. to keep the phone "active". That sounds a little fishy to me!
How do I keep the phone from locking while the Nav. Application is running?
Thank you for your help

Agreed, that is the simplest thing to do... probably much easier than talking your IT guys into raising your timeout.

How do I stop the cursor from having a mind of its own?

I just received this computer T400. A mac user wswitching over to pc - not famliar with the land. I am using a notebook and the cursor clicks on its own when I let it rest and then transports me to whatever information/page that it happens to rest upon. needles to say this is very tiring. I have tried to go to the help section and there is not informaiton about how to stop this from happening. There is informaiton for mouse control. The information I found on the cursor only spoke to the rate of blinking.
also, I would like to incluse word in my start up programs and can't figure out how to do that.
the cursor information would be most useful to me at the moment. Thank you.

onlinebabe, welcome to the forum,
you probably need to turn off or adjust the sensitivity of tapping in the UltraNav Touchpad properties. Go to Control Panel > Mouse and select the UltraNav tab and adjust the settings.
Do you mean that you want word to start automatically when windows starts? Right click in an empty area of the task bar and choose properties > Start Menu > Customise and add Word to your Autostarts folder.
Hope this helps

How can I stop iCloud music from playing while my iphone is on shuffle?

The hide feature does not stop the songs from playing it only removes them from sight. Or how can I remove songs from my iCloud.

Hello RationalPuppet
If you go to Settings > Music and then toggle off Show All Music that will prevent from seeing your downloaded music. I have also provided other articles for hiding purchases and even deleting purchases from iTunes in the Cloud.

How can I prevent the cursor from stopping when I press down on the trackpad?

On my MacbookPro 13" Retina with the new trackpad, when I press down on it and get the force feedback, the cursor stops moving even if I'm still moving my finger. This happens when I miss-click and try to correct myself and when I'm dragging something. It drives me nuts!
How can I disable it?

Hi Esquared!
Thanks for your answer. The problem with this is the following: "Also note that this will only work for applications and text fields that are coded with Apple’s text view coding objects, so programs that use alternative text handling routines may not show a difference in blink rate." So it does only work for pages and keynote and textedit but not for the menu itself and the browser and alle the other areas.
It seems like there is no overall, no global command available..what a pity

Since the last update my iCloud on my tablet is stuck in update will not let me sign out of it or chande anything how can I stop the upgrade from running. I've tried everything nothing is working.

My Apple iPad is stuck on the update in iCloud will not let me sign out of it or do anything in icloud. How can I get it to stop running. I have tried everything that I have looked up online and nothing works. Every time I put in my apple ID it disables me. Ugg I am frustrated!

Have just seen the answer to this in a another thread.
