Is there an option to switch off flash-plugin completele?

Dear Reader,
recently I installed Firefox 21 (Win XP SP3 x86). I realized that a flash video (shockwave flash plugin 11.7.700.202) can be started even if the flash plugin was disabled. Please check the thwo links:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TuXAhH91CRg
http://www.youtube.com/embed/TuXAhH91CRg
The second one opens the player and the video can be started. I checked all the options I found in the GUI, but there is no additional switch to gain total control over the plugin.
Sometimes I need to view flash videos. Thats why I do not want to deinstall the plugin. Therefore I installed the add on QuickJava. I thought I can disable it comfortable with QuckJava. But obviously I can't. Because there are often discovered severe security issues in the flash player, I think this is an indirect severe security hole in FF.
What can I do to get (comfortable) control over it? (If other Players or automatically started EXEs exist in a similar manner, please tell me to control them, too.)
greetings from Gremany

is there an option to switch from Photoshop single app to the CC Photography package?
So what you are saying, asking, is you purchased a Photoshop subscription @ the original offering price of $19.99 a month cost (or whatever it was) and now what to Drop that in favor of the PS CC + Lightroom $9.99 subscription. Is that correct?
If so you have two options as I see it.
1) do as suggested above and contact Customer Care to see if you can switch over before the end of the original subscription.
2) If you are close to the end of that original subscription period wait for it to end, Do Not Renew and then sign up for the newer lower cost PS CC + LR subscription.

Is there a possibility to switch off in Firefox the functionality of quick launch key (additional key in laptop) that cause to run the homepage

Dear Support,
Is there a possibility to switch off in Firefox the functionality of quick launch key (additional key in laptop) that cause to run the homepage. I would like to switch this functionality off, because the key is malfunctioned and always pressed. I was able to switch off the functionality of this key in Windows system by deleting entries in registry Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AppKey. After this change, when somebody works in system the Firefox is not running is not launching all the time. But when I open the Firefox the setting in system is overwritten and when I am using it Firefox returns to the homepage instantly. I think because of this quick launch button. I tried to change settings in about:config like browser.startup.homepage, browser.startup.homepage_override, startup.homepage_override_url,… this is for Firefox version is 10.0.2
Thank you
Best Regards

Hi,
Thank you for your interesst.
This internet button key is one of buttons located above the keyboard near the power button. What I have achieved to this moment was to stop it functionality in the system by clearing the entries in the fields Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AppKey\17\ShellExecute and entry
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AppKey\7\Association that was http
After these changes in registry the behavior of the button was suppressed, the Firefox stopped to start unexpectedly all the time – so in system it works. But the problem is still when I have opened Firefox. Every time when you want to surf in internet – the homepage is activated also unexpectedly. I wrote this post with intention to ask if there is a possibility to switch off the functionality of this quick launch button in Firefox. Because I assume Firefox overrides the system setup – this I have made in registry. I tried with some option changes in about:config but without success. And I know that for older versions of firefox was some option in about:config do disable_quick launch button. But in 10.0.2 I couldn't locate it.
Thank you
Regards

Not too sure there's a way to turn flash off temporarily. You
will have to uninstall it and then reinstall it when you want it
again.

Below are the instructions to set your modem to 3G-only mode:
Open VZAccess Manager with your card inserted, but do NOT connect to the internet.
Hold Control + D on your keyboard.
You will be prompted to enter a password. Enter diagvzw.
Select "settings" from the menu.
In the for preferred operating mode section, select Auto CDMA Then click OK.
Your modem will now only connect to the 3G network. Just remember that you will need to manually change it if you travel to an area where you want to connect to the 4G network (if available).
We trust that you find the above instructions helpful.

Is there a way to switch off by default the video on FaceTime? I only ever use this app for audio/calls and hate the video being on. I especially hate that if I leave the app open to receive calls it means the camera and green light are on.

My issue is that I can't find a way to have the camera switched off when the app is open and so this means if I want the app open all day to receive calls then the camera is going to be on the whole time. Even if it didn't potentially drain the battery, or add to the CPU usage or whatever else may cause any problems whatsoever (wheel of death!), I just don't want the camera on as I don't see myself ever wanting to use the video call feature but I would use the audio/call multiple times throughout the day to make and receive calls. The camera being on when the app is open is enough to prevent me from using the app. Also ever since seeing that episode of criminal minds where if you saw the green light on above the screen then it meant the killer was watching you!
Basically I just can't believe there isn't a way to disable the camera whilst having the app running. I know when initiating an audio call the camera goes away, but I would like the camera away the whole time. To me it just would make sense that if you click the video option then the camera is on, and if you click the audio option then the camera goes off. It just seems waaaaay to basic a thought for apple to have missed... Let's face it, we're not all as pretty as the people in the apple adverts and don't want to see our ugly mugs staring back as us when we work all day at our macs!

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.

C3-01 switches off, flashes

Hi All! After a month of service my new C3-01 started switching off automatically during conversation or while using Internet or when somebody is ringing me. When I turn it on it flashes black and white with around 1 second frequency and vibrates. Every time I have to wait up to half an hour until it can be switched on properly.
I passed the phone to Nokia Care and after 3 weeks the phone was returned with statement that the problem was resolved, but after a week of use I switches off again.. While the phone was in Care centre the software was updated and some hardware was replaced, but the problem still remains..
Can anyone suggest any solution? Please share if you ever had this problem and resolved it..
Thank you.

It's possible that the sim card could be the cause. If it's old or defective it could be causing the phone to crash when it's handling SMS or data connections. I suggest trying another sim or ask your network to replace yours.

Request: add option to switch off HTML by default

This forum has a lot of advantages over the old system, but also some annoying things... One thing I would like to see added is the option to have new messages (or replies) automatically open in the simplified editor, and not the full HTML one. I don't need most of those options 99% of the time, and loading them is just annoying. Cheers...

When you select the HTML screen, look over to the left above the window. There should be a link to set it to always use that screen.

What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?
Basic Troubleshooting Steps when all else fails
- Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, and swiping the App upward to make it disappear. (For iOS 6, holding down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.)
- Relaunch the App and try again.
- Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
- Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
- Reset All Settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
- Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
- Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
- Test the issue after each step. If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

How to switch off the plugin update notification?

I am getting the ''"Some plugins used by this page are out of date"'' notification on every page with Flash.
The version of Adobe Flash that I am using right now is v.10 - I don't want to update to v.11 'cause v.10 shows much better performance on my PC.
How could I switch this notification off once and for all?

You can set the plugins.hide_infobar_for_outdated_plugin pref to true on the about:config page.

Is there any other solution for Adobe Flash plugin crashing than the posted one about updating Flash and Mozilla? I cannot open any PDF files online and updated both Mozilla and Flash player to most recent with no change in the crashing.

I was able to open PDFs online until version 8. Since upgrading to version 9 and now 10, I have crashes every time I try to open a PDF online and can see the form briefly for about two seconds before the plugin crashes. I followed instructions on the solution to update Adobe Flash and Mozilla, and they are both to the most recent version and it still crashes every time, no dent in the symptoms with the upgrades. I tried also downgrading to version 3, and it sill crashes. Although in some cases I can get around by saving the PDFs for reading them through Acrobat on my PC, it is a hassle as I do not want to save everything to my drive just to see what it is, plus sometimes forms are generated on a click and I cannot see these forms at all.
I had to migrate to Chrome as I needed the PDFs and could not wait any longer - any suggestions to make Mozilla work again would be appreciated.

Hi,
Please check if this happens in [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe%20Mode Safe Mode] after enabling only the PDF plugin in '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Add-ons''' > '''Plugins'''. You can also '''Disable''' the PDF plugin and try an alternative, for eg. [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/pdfjs/?src=cb-dl-created pdf.js]. Please also go through the add-on reviews, ratings, help and FAQ.

ITunes Match is syncing my music library using 3G but I have the option switched off.

Hi,
I have found a problem syncing my music using iTunes Match and my iPhone has used 2GB of my data plan in a day. The steps to reproduce the problem are:
Precondition: iPhone is using iTunes Match and has a list a few songs in the cloud without syncing.
Steps:
Switch on 3G connections in the settings. (Settings > General > Mobile data > Mobile data & 3G ON)
Start syncing a list of music.
Switch off the option to use data plan to sync music (Settings > Music > Use data plan > OFF)
Result: iPhone continues downloading all the songs of the list using my data plan.
Expected result: iPhone stops syncing the music because there is only a 3G connection and the option is switched off.
This is why I would like to make a complaint to Apple. How can I do it?
Thanks.

Everything that is on your device should be in your library too. If that is not the case then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device. See also Backup your iTunes for Windows library with SyncToy.
Once you have secured your content you can work on resolving the sync issue.
When the media on the device won't update as expected during a sync the method that usually works is this:
Export the contents of the camera roll. (You should do this routinely anyway.)
Backup the device, unless you have a recent backup that you would prefer to restore.
Restore as a new device. (The general restore process doesn't seem to clear things out before reloading, so there can be issues with missing artwork or incorrect capacity calculations.)
Restore the chosen backup.
In some cases it might pay to use the recovery mode method given in HT201263: If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch at step 3 to ensure that a device has been completely reset before reloading your content.
