Is there a way to hide the Safari icon?

I have some good web filtering software for kids, but it doesn't work with Safari. So I want to remove the Safari icon from their accounts (without making a seriously restricted account.) All I want to do is hide the icon, not remove it because the web filter software will likely include Safari in the near future.
What I don't want to do, so please don't suggest it: I don't want to use the built in parental controls for Safari because it doesn't work like I want it to. I also don't want to set up a seriously restricted account for the kids - I want them to have "Standard" user privileges.
Suggestions?

If you really want to do that, be aware that Safari would be invisible to everyone, not just the kids. Even so, you'd need to login as the Admin user and use a tool like Super Get Info to change the visibility setting for Safari. After that's done, you would need to remove the Safari icon from the Dock of each account for your kids; otherwise they'd still be able to run Safari, even if they can't find it.

    Is there a way to hide the reading pane in iPad mail after a message is read?

    Selecting a different email will change what is displayed. Tapping the Home button will take you back to the Home screens. Tapping the power button on the top of the iPad will put it to sleep. Those are pretty much your options.

  • Is there a way to hide the SSID?

    On my old Linksys router I could choose to not broadcast the SSID as a form of added security (a hacker won't hack what he doesn't know exists). Instead of it showing up in the list of available networks, you had to type it in manually.
    It finally broke and I bought an AirPort Extreme which I just set up a few minutes ago. Created a new network, new password, etc. But there doesn't seem to be an option to not broadcast the SSID that I could see.
    Is there any way to hide the SSID from people looking for available networks?

    yes.
    launch *airport utility* and enter +manual setup+ for your device. go to the wireless tab and click on +wireless options+. find the check box for +create a closed network+ and update the AEBS.
    edit: don't be fooled, though. clients connected to a hidden (closed) network still broadcast the SSID openly. there are a number of freely available tools out there that can pick up a hidden network in a snap.

  • Is there any way to hide the column header in BW workbook?

    I have inserted a query into a workbook. But I don't want the column header to be shown. Is there any way to hide the column header? Thanks.

    Hi,
    If you want to do any custom formatting to the workbook and you do not want it to reset when you refresh the workbook,
    You will have to You can deactivate the function for adjusting the formatting (Adjust Formatting after Refreshing) in the Display Options of the Query Properties.
    When you do this, you can have your own formatting for the workbook and it will not be affected when you refresh the workbook.

  • Re: Is there a way to hide the launcher in Win95?

    If you read the Systems Manager manual you can find how to use the short cut to
    start your application using the ftcmd or ftexec.
    The following is an example of one that I use.
    C:\forte\install\bin\ftexec.exe -fi bt:C:\forte\userapp\APPWIN\cl0\APPWIN0 -fns
    SYSNAME:5000
    Hope this helps.

    I'm guessing what really needs to be closed is the launch server window,
    right? That's the one that runs as an "MS-DOS" box in the task bar.
    The launcher is just the little applet that can run other applications.
    As far as we have been able to discover here, the only way to make the
    launch server close after the application exits is to code it into your
    application. Forte doesn't really want to close it though, because it is
    used to fire off any and all application that get run using "ftcmd" or
    the LaunchService.RunApplet method call.
    If you don't need to use Forte's application distribution mechanism
    (i.e. having it create icons in "Forte Applications" for you), you can
    do as mentioned earlier and run things as an "ftexec" instead of an
    "ftcmd".
    It would be nice if Forte let you decide what type of icon you want it
    to create when you install an application on a given node.

    Joseph,
    Try setting FORTE_LAUNCHER_CLOSE=TRUE. This is supposed to
    shut down the
    launcher after an application is launched. The default is FALSE.
    You can hide the console window when launched via FTExec by:
    aW : Window = new();
    aW.windowsystem.ConsoleWindowDisplayState = DS_HIDDEN;
    Hope this helps!

  • Is there a way to put the bluetooth icon on the homepage?

    I pair my iphone with my car when I'm driving. Is there a way to put the bluetooth icon on the homepage so I don't have to go through settings to turn the bluetooth on and off?
    I don't like to leave the bluetooth on all the time because it drains the battery, but it's kinda a pain to have to go through settings everytime I want to use this feature.
    On my last cell phone I could assign a "hot key" to automatically turn the bluetooth on and off. I really liked that. This bluetooth system seems a little dated to me.

    No not yet, hopfully soon.

  • Is there a way to hide the tab bar on my I Pad 2 in IOS 5?

    Anyone know of a way to hide the tab bar in an I Pad 2 using OS5? It wasn't there on the previous operating system.

    I can only assume that you are talking about Safari and the answer is no. Safari now uses tabs. If you want a tab free browser, download iCab. You can use tabs or you also have the old Safari way of browsing open web pages at your disposal. Another rally nice feature is that you can swipe from one open web page to another open web page. It also has a ton of other features that Safari does not have.

  • Is there any way to hide the menu bar?

    I've been trying to find out if there's a way to hide the menu bar unless the mouse pointer is pushed up to the upper edge of the screen, I know there are third-party applications that let you do this (Menufela which uses Application Enhancer that I prefer to avoid as it is causes more problems than it solves as far as I'm concerned), I also know that it's possible to write applications that cause the menu bar to exhibit this behaviour while they're focused.
    But what I'm looking for is a way to make it behave this way all the time without installing Application Enhancer and having to deal with all the headaches that come with it.

    It does seem odd that you can't get the menu bar to hide itself though, I seem to recall something about editing certain files in .app directories to make it hide itself on an app-by-app basis.
    To hide the menu bar for a single application, you need to modify the Info.plist, as described -> here <-.
    This will work on nearly every application. Only on a very few applications it will cause incorrect behaviour, mainly Finder.app.
    So a simple way to realise your wishes, is to create an Applescript, that will "hide and unhide" the menubar for a couple of apps at one time.
    Here a demonstration example: Choose one or more apps. Menu bar will be hidden/unhidden:
    <pre style="
    font-family: 'Courier New', Courier;
    font-size: 12px;
    line-height: 1;
    border: 2px solid #1E90FF;
    width: 700px; height: 200px;
    color: #000000;
    background-color: #F5FFFA;
    overflow: auto;">
    on run
    set xyz to choose file default location (path to "apps" as alias) with multiple selections allowed without invisibles
    repeat with i in xyz
    set appName to name of (get info for i)
    if appName ends with ".app" then set proName to text 1 thru -5 of appName
    tell application "Finder"
    try
    if exists (process proName) then
    set x to display dialog "Is " & "\"" & proName & "\"" & " still running? If so, please quit it now!" buttons {"Cancel", "Quit it!", "No! Not running!"} default button 2 with icon 0
    end if
    end try
    end tell
    try
    if button returned of x is "Quit it!" then
    tell application appName
    quit
    end tell
    end if
    end try
    try
    ((i as Unicode text) & "Contents:Info.plist") as alias
    set infoPlist to quoted form of POSIX path of ((i as Unicode text) & "Contents:Info")
    try
    do shell script "defaults read " & infoPlist & " LSUIPresentationMode"
    do shell script "defaults delete " & infoPlist & " LSUIPresentationMode"

  • Now that the "Status Bar" is gone, is there a way to hide the "status notification" (bottom left corner) when a page loads? This is on Windows & FF5/6

    The so called "Status Bar" has apparently gone away since FF4, I'm now onto 6 I think, on my work machine. But one of the things I liked about the Status Bar was that it could be hidden entirely.
    With no Status Bar, now when a page is loaded in FF, you get a floating "Status Notification" in the bottom left corner for a second or two while the page is loading (this even happens in FullScreen F11, something I never had to deal with when the Status Bar existed).
    What I want to know is, is there a way to turn off this "Status Notification" entirely? A setting somewhere? Something in About:config? I haven't been able to find anything.

    1. Install the addon Status 4 evar, which puts the status text back in the status bar: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/status-4-evar/
    2. Hide the status bar by right clicking the refresh button and unchecking "Addon bar"

  • Is there a way to hide the account ranges when creating a web-adi for budgets?

    Hi,
    I'm trying to create budgets for an end-user. The user doesn't want to see all account ranges defined for that budget organization and would like to populate them on his own. I can hide the account ranges in the document creation page but not in the web-adi excel file. Is there a way to do hide the account combinations from being displayed in the excel file?

    you'd have to disable javascript - but this won't be a very practical solution since many sites are broken without it. you can use an extension like [https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/noscript/ noscript] & do a whitelist approach - disable js by default and only allow it on sites that you trust/need.

  • In QuickTime 10 is there a way to hide the movie controls when paused?

    Is there anyway to hide the movie controls in quicktime when pausing movies?

  • Is there a way to hide the source of a page?

    I would like to know if there's a way hide the source of a page.
    In the near future I would like to sell access to a CF app to resellers, so that they can sell my app as their own service. I'm looking for a reasonable solutions to hide where the page is coming from. Not for my sake but to give my resellers some privacy.
    the way I do it now is:: <iframe id="myFrame"   frameborder="0" scrolling="auto" src='http://mysite.com/applications/main.cfm/?id=14' width="100%" height="100%"/>  this offers no privacy.
    a nice example of what i would like to do is this web site:
    service provider -> http://mailinglistorders.com/index1.cfm
    customer -> http://www.wizcounts.com/index1.cfm
    Any ideas, suggestions, pointers would be greatly apreciated!!
    Thanks!

    thanks for your input, that is a solution, but I would prefer to find a simpler to implement solution, something that if possible could be automated. It doesn't have to be unbreakable, as there is no sensitive data being sent, it's only a customer id and some parameters. Is there a way maybe to encrypt the URL at the clients side and decrypt it at the server side (maybe I'm showing my ignorance )
    I'm just trying to avoid being obvious.
    Thanks again!!!
