Is there a way to disable the power button when iPhone is lock with a pass code?

This is for security reason as you can still track ur iPhone/iPad when someone decides to steal it. My iPad 2 64gb + 3G and a MacBook Pro 17 was recently stolen and I was able to track it 10-15 mins (after the incident) until the thieve(s) decided to turn the iPad off. It would be great if someone or even Apple could add this option to the cellular versions so victims of theft could have a slight chance of retrieving stuff back (with the help of law enforcements).

You cannot at this time. Feedback to Apple goes at www.apple.com/feedback. There are other ways for a thief to disable Find my iPhone. It is not really intended to track stolen devices although it will, it is more for lost devices.

In the firefox configuration under the General - Startup settings is there a way to disable the 3 buttons under the homepage? (Use Current Page, Use Bookmark, Restore to Default)

I am looking for a setting that I can put in the Mozilla.cfg file to disable those buttons from being clicked. Because when I set the homepage and lock that setting a user can still click the buttons below the homepage setting to change their homepage away from their "locked" setting

If you lock the pref that sets the home page via a lockPref line in mozilla.cfg then it should not be possible to change the home page setting.
Did you check that the pref(s) have a locked status on the about:config page?

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?

Just upgraded to a 6. I want to use my old 4S as an iPod touch. Is there a way to disable the phone and only have wi-fi?

Did you transfer the telephone number from the old phone to the new phone? If you did, I don't see how you could still have cellular service, even if you turned it off in settings.

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.

hello, I work at a school, in the IT department. one of my jobs is to manage all the ipads.
I have a lot of ipads that students use. some students like to make a passcode and lock me out.

No, but what you can do is use the free MDMs at http://www.simplemdm.com/ or http://www.meraki.com/products/systems-manager/ , enroll your devices, and clear passcodes set by students with the click of a mouse.

Hi,
take a look at:

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

Is there any way to disable the lock screen with out the screen staying on?

I know there is away to disable the pass lock but is there a way to disable the screen from locking every time the screen goes off? cause it's so much easier to just press the answer button than to slide it to unlock. phone versions iPhone 4s and iPhone 5c.

You're confusing a direct answer with a rude one. Wjosten's reply wasn't rude. It was accurate and direct, without any sugercoating. You can't get the device to operate the way that you want (lock the screen, but not really 'lock' the screen). It's not a 'screensaver' like on your computer. It's a lock screen, designed to prevent accidental activation of the device screen, and possibly launching apps, making phone calls, etcetera.
If you want an option added that allows the device to do what you want, tell Apple.

Direct, accurate information. That's what wjosten provided.

Is there any way to disable the expanding scroll bars in Mountain Lion?

Since I never scroll by dragging the scroll bars with the cursor, I find the expansion of the scroll bars to be a distracting and even productivity limiting feature. Is there any way to disable the expansion of the scroll bars (perhaps with a terminal command)? System Preferences doesn't have an option to switch this feature off as far as I'm concerned.
Thanks a lot in advance.

No!

the external GPS is used only for 911 but the device will not operate without it...this causes great inconvenience for me, having to run that cable to a window in the two houses I use it..is there a way to disable the GPS if I do not care about the 911 functionability..? this is the only downside I have with the network extender and it renders my device useless..

Nope, GPS is a Federal requirement for anything operating a cellular telephone signal. You don't ever plan to call 911 until you are in an emergency. I don't see that requirement changing any time soon.
If you are truly inconvenienced by the VZW network extender then perhaps you should disable you calling features in these areas and swap over to WiFi only. There are many services and apps out there that can route your phone services through internet service providers.

Joleney-
I do not know of any way to turn off the Sleep button. If yours does not work, there might be an internal problem like a loose connection in the iPad.
One thing you can try is to hold both the Home and Sleep buttons for several seconds until the Apple logo appears. Ignore the "Slide to power off" arrow if it appears. If successful, the iPad will restart after a couple of minutes.
If the Apple logo never appears, it is likely your Sleep button is bad. If the iPad is still in warranty, show it to an Apple Store Genius. You may get a replacement iPad if the Genius can not fix it.
If the iPad is out of warranty or there is no Apple Store near you, look for an Apple Authorized Repair Center near you. There may be one in your city. If out of warranty, the cost of a repair would most likely be less than Apple's replacement price. <Apple Authorized Repair Centers>
