Is there any way to disable "Checking Your Add-ons" window that comes when user starts Firefox after update for the first time?

we have over 1500 firefox users and its very confusing to them if after update they start their Firefox and this "Checking Your Add-ons" window comes.
It would be much appreciated if it can somehow skipped this or do it silently.

Unfortunately this link does not help.
We currently have 3.6.x versions of Firefox in most computers, and if i do a silent install via sccm to version 12, then if user starts the new firefox for the first time, it checks addons, like java quick starter and browsing protection (f-secure) etc. Second time when they start firefox, it starts normally.
My question is - is there some way to avoid this first run addon compability checking?
I've tried numerous preferences in mozilla.cfg, nothing helps so far.

There's a number of potential problems here, and they may not necessarily be at your end.
First of all, it should be clear that CMYK is not so much a generic "image mode" as it is a description of specific press conditions. If you produce final CMYK, you must have the right profile. Don't use Image > Mode, use Convert to Profile.
Given that, I would question anyone who doesn't accept Adobe RGB photographs for a magazine article, because it implies a process that isn't properly color managed and generally not up to date. A standard workflow today would use InDesign, where images are normally placed in their original RGB space whatever that is. Then the conversion to final output CMYK is done as the last step, when producing a press-ready PDF from InDesign.
It helps tremendously if you know that final CMYK, because then you can proof to that so your file survives the CMYK conversion with the least possible damage (we're talking gamut clipping here; not general color shifts). But it's not absolutely required, which is why this workflow is relaitively safe.
Third, CMYK jpeg is in itself risky, because many jpeg decoders (in some software) don't have proper CMYK support. The result can be weird colors. This could well be the problem here, because it sounds as if your client uses a non-standard workflow.
So what to do? I would send two files. One sRGB as reference, which is guaranteed to come through correctly. Then find a way to send TIFF for the CMYK version if they insist, or ask them to try opening it in different software. Of course you should have a calibrated and profiled display, but I agree that's probably not the immediate problem here. There's no particular reason a CMYK file should come back with twisted colors if it's opened and processed in properly color managed software.

Disable "Checking Your Add-ons" When Launching Firefox

Currently in our enterprize enviroment we have an older version of Firefox that we can not upgrade (long story).
When a user first launches Firefox, the first windows says "Checking Your Add-on's"
How can I get Firefox to not have this pop up?
Note: This is on a Citrix Provisioning Server, I have a default profile that when people launches Firefox all the certs etc gets loaded. Is there a way in the default profile to configure not to check Add-On's ?

You could set lastVersion prefs to the value of that new Firefox version to prevent such a check.
<pre><nowiki>user_pref("extensions.lastAppVersion", "32.0");
user_pref("extensions.lastPlatformVersion", "32.0");
</nowiki></pre>
You could do that via user.js file in the defaults\pref folder in the Firefox program folder to initialize new profiles or via a mozilla.cfg file for all users (use pref() instead of user_pref()).
These functions can be used in the mozilla.cfg file:
defaultPref(); // set new default value
pref(); // set pref, allow changes in current session
lockPref(); // lock pref, disallow changes

Hi Jim,
Thanks for the post. I researched on your issue using different combinations of VI, pane, and path control event and was unsuccessful in getting an event to fire when the drag starts outside of the LabVIEW window. I think you are on the right path with using a Windows API, which then could be interfaced into LabVIEW using ActiveX or .NET containers. If you are able to detect it, then you can use a user event to fire a drag start in LabVIEW. This should then allow you to successfully fire a drag over event. The NI Developer Zone article below will get you started on creating and using user events:
Using Dynamic Event Registration to Watch for User Inaction With a Control
Hope this helps to get you started on the right path. Have a good evening!

Hi Jonah,
Thanks for your efforts in confirming my results. I'd prefer not to use any activex or .net containers, since this will make the code extremely coupled to a specific platform. If I can find a way to do this, using window handles or something, via WinAPI that would be preferable, because I could use a conditional disable structure to comment out the code on non-windows machines.
If anyone has any ideas about how to receive these events, using window handles and messaging, that would be great.
Thanks,
-Jim

Is there any way to create a mini Now Playing window that can "float?"

Hi,
I've been reading the Help in iTunes, as well as searching the Net, but I'm not finding the functionality I want. Basically, I want to have a mini Now Playing window that I can reposition so it's not covered up by other windows while I'm working. Is there a plugin that will do this, or is it a standard feature of iTunes, that I've overlooked?
Thanks,
Jason

I'm not sure what you're asking about. What "announcement" are you seeing? Is it possible you've installed a plugin of some sort? iTunes, on its own, doesn't announce what song is playing, except in its usual little gray window.
You can get rid of the iTunes window entirely by clicking the red "close window" button in the upper left (or typing command-option-1). If you are still looking for an answer to your original question — creating a mini-player that floats on top of all other windows — click the green "minimize" button and select "Keep MiniPlayer on top of all other windows" in Preferences > Advanced.
I don't know which Chris you're talking about.

Auto correct is making me look like an idiot. I have to go back and psychically spell check my documents now. Is there any way to disable it?

Auto correct on my desktop Mac is making me look like an idiot. After I type it's changing words into other words I never typed and it even pushes words together that I'd typed a space in between in order to create new words that I never typed which make absolutley no sense.
Now after I type a document I have to go back and psychically spell check my entire document the old fashioned way to make sure auto-correct isn't making me look like a clown who can't spell.
Is there any way to disable "auto correct" on the desktop MAC and still keep spell check running?
The amount of messages I've sent out with horribly misspselled words or errrors as a result is maddening.
HELP!!!
Running OSX 10.9.1

I had turned off auto-correct in the keyboard preferences, but in Mail all my spelling and grammer choices were grayed out. The key for me — as Kingoftypos points out — was "For Mail, open a new message/reply/forward. Then go to the Edit menu and scroll down to the Spelling/Grammar."
It would never have occurred to me to open a new message to be able to change the settings.
Thanks, King

Is there any way to disable the use of the "Delete" key to delete an email message?

It's very frustrating when I hit the delete key and iCloud automatically erases the selected email message. I receive some HTML formatted emails that include a text box that I can utilize to directly reply to something. If I don't make any mistakes at all, I can utilize this box and post a reply. But if I mess up and need to delete text, instead of deleting text iCloud deletes the email message. Is there any way to disable this?
Thanks for your help.

I don't believe it's possible to disable the delete key, but could be wrong. However, if you delete an email in error, you can restore it by pressing cmd + Z to undo the deletion.

Is there any way to disable USB charging on N8?

It might be a strange question. But many time, my battery still nearly full and I just want to transfer a couple of files. When I plug the cable in, it start charging right away. This may makes battery deteriorate faster. Therefore, is there any way to disable USB charging? Thanks!

charging by usb isn't a problem , modern batteries do not suffer 'memory effect' just do what you want to do and don't worry about it . My N97 is connected to laptop most nights for anything from 10 minutes to an hour , no battery problem in 18 months and left on charge overnight every night . Enjoy your new phone and don't worry about a problem that doesn't exist

This might go into too much detail but I suspect since you're referring to a basic system function you're going to have to address this at a pretty basic level in the system operations which isn't always easy without major hacks.

Is there any way to disable right click and drag and drop for photos on iweb?

Re: protecting photos when using iweb as your web designer...
Is there any way to disable right click and drag and drop for photos using iweb? I have seen tutorials about creating a text box around each image - but is there a better way?

However, there is no way you can prevent someone from making a screenshot of the image as it is displayed on the screen no matter what application you use to create the web page.
You can add a watermark to dissuade the casual "thief" but those who are serious about stealing the photo for their own use can remove the watermark with some effort.
