Is there a way to have hardware acceleration without the text font change? + Eye straining firefox!

Is there a way to have hardware acceleration without the text font change? I remember there was a way to go into settings before and getting hardware acceleration to work without the font change. Unfortunately I lost ALL my previous setting when uninstalling the beta ver Nightly and clicking delete settings :(.
Also, I fixed a problem before where firefox was visually eye straining to me, I think it was some settings in anti-alias tuner, but I cant seem to find the right settings that puts less strain on my eyes, anyone know? Thanks ahead. Currently using FF7.

Try to toggle some Boolean gfx.font_rendering prefs on the about:config page to disable some features.<br />
Filter: gfx
Others to try:
* set gfx.direct2d.disabled to true to disable Direct2D
*Anti-Aliasing Tuner: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/anti-aliasing-tuner/

  • I have two Macs: an MBA and the new iMac.  Is there a way to have iTunes and all the content in it identical on both machines?

    I have two Macs: an MBA and the new iMac.  Is there a way to have iTunes and all the content in it identical on both machines?

    Yes you can copy the content to your new machine and use Home Sharing to keep the content identical
    Connect the two machines via an ethernet cable it is 3 times faster than Wifi. Turn wifi off on one machine to enforce ethernet connection
    In System Preferences, Sharing turn on File Sharing
    Then
    Copy the music/itunes folder from the Macbook pro to the music/ folder on the imac
    Both machines should now have the same library
    Disconnect H the ethernet cable
    Set up Home Sharing and under Settings at the bottom of the Home Sharing page. Select to transfer new purchases.
    Do the same on the other machine.
    Then when you r machines are connected by wifi and each time you start itunes it will transfer your new purchases

  • When I reply to emails my reply is at the bottom of the thread-is there a way to have my replies at the top so my recipients see them?

    When I reply to emails using icloud my reply is at the bottom of the thread where none of my recipients see it-they think I am not adding any content.  Is there a way to have my replies at the top of the thread so my recipients see them?

    This is so horribly frustrating! If you just hit "Reply" and start typing, your new reply starts right at the end of the original message, without even a carriage return. It's the exact opposite of how MobileMe -- and most other mail apps -- work.
    Can we either:
    Move the cursor position in replied messages back to the top, as it was before; or
    Add the option in Preferences to determine where you'd like your cursor to appear when you reply to messages

  • Apple remote not working, is there a way to setup Apple TV without the remote

    Apple remote not working, is there a way to setup Apple TV without the remote

    Welcome to the Apple Community Sylvia.
    There is no way to set up home sharing on the Apple TV without the original remote from Apple, you will need to purchase a new remote from the Apple Store.

  • I recently upgraded my old powerbook to an iMac.  I've dumped the files of my backup drive into the new iMac. Is there a way to have access to all the files (new and old computers) when logged on as the same user vs. logging in and out to access each?

    I am new to posting to this support community but have often referred to it for answers.  So thank you all who've contributed; you've been a great help!

    Sure-glad to help you. You will not lose any data by changing synching to MacBook Pro from imac. You have set up Time Machine, right? that's how you'd do your backup, so I was told, and how I do my backup on my mac.  You should be able to set a password for it. Save it.  Your stuff should be saved there. So if you want to make your MacBook Pro your primary computer,  I suppose,  back up your stuff with Time machine, turn off Time machine on the iMac, turn it on on the new MacBook Pro, select the hard drive in your Time Capsule, enter your password, and do a backup from there. It might work, and it might take a while, but it should go. As for clogging the hard drive, I can't say. Depends how much stuff you have, and the hard drive's capacity.  As for moving syncing from your iMac to your macbook pro, should be the same. Your phone uses iTunes to sync and so that data should be in the cloud. You can move your iTunes Library to your new Macbook pro
    you should be able to sync your phone on your new MacBook Pro. Don't know if you can move the older backups yet-maybe try someone else, anyways,
    This handy article from Apple explains how
    How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support''
    don't forget to de-authorize your iMac if you don't want to play purchased stuff there
    and re-authorize your new macBook Pro
    time machine is an application, and should be found in the Applications folder. it is built in to OS X, so there is nothing else to buy. double click on it, get it going, choose the Hard drive in your Time capsule/Airport as your backup Time Machine  and go for it.  You should see a circle with an arrow on the top right hand of your screen (the Desktop), next to the bluetooth icon, and just after the wifi and eject key (looks sorta like a clock face). This will do automatic backups  of your stuff.

    Welcome to Apple Communities
    You can't disable FaceTime remotely. If you activated Find my iPhone in the device, go to iCloud and Find my iPhone. You can block or erase your iPod if it's connected to Wi-Fi, but you won't be able to track it

  • Is there a way to have a Chicken of the vnc type GUI over internet in ARD3?

    Hello, to whoever reads this question, thanks in advance if you can help.
    My need is this. I regularly use Chicken of the VNC for multiple administration over the internet, but what I like is the possibility to have same IP but Multiple clients with fixed IP (local) behind Firewall, i.e. x.x.x.x:5910 x.x.x.x:5920, x.x.x.x:5930, etc. and i can connect at the same time to the different machines to admin them.
    Question: Is there any possibility to have the multiple connections with ARD 3 or even ARD 2 over the internet with same IP?
    At one point ARD 3 did work for me like that for about an hour and then it stopped, blocking out 2 of 3 machines in the same IP. I mean, it acutally let me have 2 windows open on the same IP with different ports over internet and was flabbergasted, but then it stopped! when I quitted and restarted, I could do it no more…
    I really like ARD, but if I got to manually change the port everytime I log in… yikes…!! I admin 20 machines in 10 different locations, so everytime i gotta log in to machine 'a' then change ports to machine 'b' for 10 locations everyday… well I hope you get the idea.
    BTW i tried looking all over the forum, but could not find this info specifically.
    PS thank you for your time

    I, too, was a bit bummed out by the lack of this feature. I wondered if ARD 3 had some sort of mode Apple themselves used "silently".
    There IS a way to make it work, however -- via VPN. I discovered that once I used VPN into my company's intranet, ARD 3's scanner could see EVERY Mac in the company.
    Setting up a VPN nowadays is pretty simple -- many routers handle the support for you. OS X's Internet Connect feature makes it trivial to connect to the VPN, once it is properly set up from the inside of the company.

  • Is there a way to have applications run in the background after I log out?

    New to Mavericks, have a new iMac after being on Leopard for years. After I log out, all the applications I had running stop and close. Is there a way to keep those running? It seems like logging out, and the applications stopping, would negate the ability to see any notifications on the lock screen. I have multiple users set up on this computer, is that the reason?

    By definition, logging out means quitting all your processes. If you want to log in as a different user without logging out, see below.

    Is there a way to coordinate email on your computer and on your iphone?  When I delete email on my computer it still shows up as unread on my phone.

    It depends on the type of email account you are using, POP3 or IMAP.  This article explains the differences:  http://mail2web.com/blog/2010/02/pop-imap-difference/

  • HT3986 Is there a way to install my drivers, without the install disc, or a way to get another install disc?

    I have a 27 inch, 2011 Mac. Its running Mountain Lion X, and I want to install Windows 7 via boot camp. I understand without the install disc, my mouse and keyboard won't work (or maybe it's just keyboard, as I have a Cyborg mouse). Without the disc - is there a way to get the required drivers, or a way to get another disc?
    Thanks!

    There is no install disk for Mountain Lion, you download the Windows Support Software using Boot Camp Assistant (as you are creating the partition)
    Backup your machine first, then Read This before you start.

  • Is there a way to install bootcamp drivers without the cd?

    Well, I know it is really easy to install te drivers, but i left my Leopard CD at my other house. Is there any way i could download the drivers or something? I bought Leopard, i just don't have the disc with me.

    Hi and welcome to Discussions,
    sorry but no luck.
    There is no download possibility for the drivers. At least not until the next BootCamp Update.
    And with BootCamp 2.0 the drivers are no longer part of the Bootcamp Assistant in OSX.
    You need the OSX DVD for the drivers.
    Regards

  • Is there any way in RH9 to search on the text that appears in images?

    I have a Webhelp project with many screen shots. Some of these screen shots contain messages. I think users mights want to search the help project when these messages appear on the screen. Are there any options in RH9 that would allow this?
    Thank you very much for any help or guidance you can provide.
    nankinnankin

    I doubt there is a chance with any software. The messages are part of an image so as far as any search tool is concerned, there is no text.
