Is there a way to disable a user to unlock boot disk FileVault on Lion?

When I enabled File Vault on Lion, I asked every user to type in its password to enable them to unlock the boot disk, later i regreted my decision, I'd prefer to let only a few users to unlock the disk. Is thre a way to revoke this privilege from some users?
I konw I can do this disabling file vault and re-enabling it, but it requires a lot of time.
Thanks.

Ok, I figured it out. It is easy. Go to:
Menu
Settings
Device
Sound
Volume
Then slide the System bar to off.

Is there a way to disable the "user forward task" from workspace in ES2.

In ES2 "Assign Task" operation there is no taskACL options to uncheck the "Forward" option to disable the user from forwarding their tasks. I think this option is available in workspace start point, but my process is not invoked/triggered by workspace start point. So can any one help me with this?

At the top of the properties tab there is a toggle for basic/all. Switch to all and the "Task Access Control List (ACL)" will be available like the deprecated assign task.

Is there a way to disable a user's Parental Controls through ARD?

So, we have Users with AD accounts, and for some reason Parental Controls is ON, and the only thing it limits is Printer Administration. I don't need this on, there's actually no need for Parental Controls at all, they are all Users, not Admins..
So, is there a terminal command that turns all Parental Controls OFF for all accounts that have it?
And, can i 'push' that out through ARD?

Assuming that they are local and not handed down by AD, you can remove the managed client settings for a local user from the commandline like so:
sudo dscl -mcxdelete /Local/Default/Users/username
sudo rm -rf /Library/Managed\ Preferences/username

Is there any way to disable the objects owned by a user?

Hai every body....My problem is..

(60 Users) for a period of 2 days,After that i wanted to enable them....Is there any way to disable the objects owned by them with out dropping the users?(The users should be able to work as prevoiusly on the new objects they will create after i disabled the objetcts owned by them previously)?

hi
if my understanding is right you want to disable the users for 2 days for any reason let say he is on holiday for 2 days then why dont u lock this user and submit the job for unlock after two days.

In keynote 2.0, is there a way to disable clicking to the next slide?

I'm trying to create a Jeopardy template that lets the user click on the board to choose a question but I can't get it to stop moving forward one slide when someone click on the background of the question. Is there a way to disable that like in Powerpoint? I want to create clickable objects instead but if someone misses them by accident it could mess up the game.

In the Document Inspector, in the Presentation dropdown menu, choose "Hyperlinks only". This option allows navigation of the presentation solely through explicit hyperlinks.

Question:-Is there any way to disable the installation location/folder of da Adobe AIR Application?

Is there any way to disable the installation location/folder of the Adobe AIR Application or can we skip that part automatically?

xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx" is the spark mx address, which is completely different than the original 2006 mx library.
The thing is: I love AIR, hate spark, loved the 2006 pre-spark functionality. It is so much more convenient and user friendly. Given the choice between having the display seperate from the processing, or having it be convenient and easy to work with, I choose the later option.
For the most part it seems like the AIR api is like a layer on top of the spark - flex system.. I would like to be able to over lay the same AIR functionality on top of the the old system....
Possible or no?

HT5019 Is there a way to disable the toolbar from preventing windows being dragged to external monitors configured above it?

My preferred display arrangement is to have 2 external monitors (extended display) above my macbook pro screen. While it is possible to configure this in my display preferences, the toolbar on my desktop prevents me from dragging anything to the external monitors. Is there a way to disable whatever the toolbar is doing to cause this?

I have exactly the same concern. It seems it would be a simple fix for Apple to allow users to turn off the camera (and even the mic) while keeping FaceTime open -- especially now that it turns out FaceTime must remain open in order to send and receive iPhone calls on a Mac.
I like to think this new functionality of FaceTime will be baked into a future release of Yosemite, as the current setup has that not-quite-finished feel of a work in progress. In the meantime, there's nothing like a little piece of Post-It stuck over the camera to keep the NSA from watching your face as you type a post to the Apple Support Communities.

Is there a way to disable OIM entity adapters while doing batch upload ?

Hi experts,
I have an adpater to generate UserID from a sequence based on user-type for creation of OIM users thru web UI.
I have attached this to Users form in data object manager.
We also have a 3-step batch bulk procedure from CSV file which checks data enterd, generates pword email etc etc and builds CSV file with records to be inserted.
In the 3rd step, scheduled task runs with CSV file as input and creates users in OIM DB.
The problem is the entity adapters are also getting triggerd which generate another UserID for each user created.
This leads to loss in sequence numbers.
Is there any way of disabling this ?? We need to have both in place, but this conflict should not arise ..
Please advice.
Regards,
Chetan

Even if i check the value of that UDF and execute the code to generate UserID based on that value,the function still has to return a value right ??Attach entity adapter at Post Insert.
Create UDF with Default value "CSV".
Add one more parameter in your java class which is responsible for generating userid.
You can directly map UDF with Class Parameter.
if (UDF == CSV){
Don't Generate
else {
Generate with your logic
And if that function is getting called for every user record in the CSV file, then i cant return a dummy value for it as well .You can use update User API of tcUserOperations

HP ENVY 17 G0U21AV - Is there a way to disable the Fingerprint Scanner?

I am using an HP ENVY 17 G0U21AV Windows 8.1.
This model came with a fingerprint scanner in the lower left of the computer. While this seems like a nice feature, it's not one that I am planning on using (I use LastPass for my passwords). I keep accidentally running part of my palm over the scanner which will bring up the screen for HP SimplePass. This can come up at the most inopportune moments, and it can get quite annoying trying to always conciously avoid the fingerprint scanner.
Is there any way to disable the fingerprint scanner?
Thanks.
This question was solved.

@DSWJoshua,
Thanks for posting. You can disable the fingerprint reader. To be thorough, I will provide steps to disable the driver itself, and Biometric support, so you don't have to worry about it later.
To disable the Driver, go to Control Panel, then Device Manager. Expand Biometric devices. Right-click on the Validity sensor and Uninstall.
To turn off biometric support, go to Control Panel, then Biometric devices. Uncheck Allow users to log on to Windows using their fingerprints and then save it.

Hi,
take a look at:

At the top you can (de-) activate the automatic login.
Does it work for you?

Is there a way to disable previously viewed iMessages from appearing as Messages notifications when waking my MacBook Pro from sleep?

Is there a way to disable previously viewed iMessages from appearing as Messages notifications when waking my MacBook Pro from sleep? Regardless of whether I am using iMessage from my iPhone or iPad, when I open my MBP, I get attacked by Messages notifications for iMessages I've obviously already seen or responded to. Is there a way to change this? Are others having this issue?
Additionally, previous iMessages sent or received from those devices sometimes don't populate into the Messages window on the MBP. I haven't been able to identify when or what causes this; sometimes it just doesn't seem to work (and I verified that the messages sent/received were, in fact, iMessages and not SMS).
Thanks - any help or insight would be appreciated!

First you need to determine what laptop model you have; then we can help you. A Mac Book Pro cannot run OS 9.1.
With your Mac booted up, click on the  at the far left of the menu. Then click on About This Mac. It will show what version of OS you are running. What is the version?
A MBP will be running something like version 10.x.
If you are running version OS 9.x, you don't have a Mac Book Pro.

Is there any way to create multiple users in a single shot in oracle db

Can Any one tell me, is there any way to create multiple users in a single shot in oracle database.

Hello Nunhum,
I guess this was not my question.. This is not what I m asking.. I know there is not a single sql statement in oracle ,which could create multiusers alike UNIX/LINUX(OS LEVEL), Whatever you have written..is simple creating them one by one.
What I am expecting is to have PL/SQL statement which could help us in this regard.

Is there a way to force a user to view all of Accordion Widget?

Is there a way to force a user to read, or at least view,
all sections of the Accordion Widget? We want to make sure the learner reads
all of the material before advancing to the next slide. Is there a way to do
this? I have searched all over, but I have been unable to find.

No way. This is a static learning interaction, no event that could be used eventually. Personally I prefer offering reading material that is engaging over looking for a way to push the learner to look (reading doesn't mean he understands or grabs it) at all the stuff. But that is my teacher's past, if student doesn't read your stuff, something is wrong with the stuff, not with the student.
If you have to force, you'll have to find another way than the accordion interaction .
