Locking Application Position

Is there a way to lock the position of your applications, ie an application? When my son plays with the phone he sometimes holds the icon long enough to wiggle/move/delete them accidentally.
Thanks for the help/suggestions.

No way to lock icon positions, but you can reset the home screen layout in the settings under General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout. This will arrange all Apple icons to their factory default positions, and apps will be ordered in alphabetical order.

Is there a way to permanently locke a position? No unlocking possible?

I have created a template in InDesign which our company uses to create "Job Sheets" for Architectural projects that we have completed.
At times, there are multiple people who use these templates.
To ensure that our Job Sheets are consistent, we like to lock certain image frames and text boxes.
It is very important that these objects not be moved because we create many Job Sheets and they all must be consistant.
We want the user to be able to change photos and text, but not the position and size of the text boxes and image frames.
I know that we can lock the position of these objects, but anyone can just as easily unlock them.
We want them to be locked either permanently, or to be locked with a password.
I don't think this is possible based on the research I have done.
But, can someone suggest an alternative that will accomplish the same thing?

Anyone who can’t follow simple directions such as “don’t unlock that frame position” needs to be better trained or fired.
IOW, what you want to do can’t be done.

Baffling: Locking SMPTE position of events within a region

So I have a project with lots of tempo changes and MIDI notes recorded to it. I now wish to paste those notes into another project with a fixed tempo (120bpm) but preserve the original positions (reflecting the tempo changes) of the notes. I don't need to have a grid or anything for this region, I just want the notes to appear at the same SMPTE positions as the original project but in a fixed tempo project. I hope this is clear...
So, I figured it's simply a case of selecting the original region in the first project, opening the event list and selecting Functions>Lock SMPTE Position. This does indeed bring up the SMPTE lock symbol next to each note (looks promising). So presumably I can simply paste this region into a new project with a fixed tempo and the notes will appear at the same position as the original region... but alas no. The notes are simply locking to the new project tempo and not preserving the original SMPTE position.
Can someone please advise me if this is the correct way of doing this, or what I'm doing wrong because I cannot get this to work and I can't think of any other way of doing it. Cheers!

SMPTE-Lock everything (including automation) in the old project.
Set the old project's tempo to 120.
Copy-Paste or drag all Regions over to the new Project.

Is it possible to Lock Title Position

I have used Appleworks for many many years. A few years ago I downloaded a trial of iWork after they started offering a spreadsheet program. I was happy with the Numbers software with one huge exception. It did not offer a way to Lock Title Position as Appleworks spreadsheet does. Quite frankly, I don't see how anyone can use the Numbers spreadsheet if the document you're working on encompasses more than one page without having the title locked. Each column was named and I would have to scroll up constantly to see which column I was working on. I wound up calling Apple Support and they confirmed that there was no way to do this. My question is, has this been corrected in the current version of Numbers?

For me it's not a problem. I used my memory and, to help it, I applied different background colours to columns so I was able to know in which column I was. And, most of the time, it's quitr easy to recognize it by the kind of content which is in the surrounding cells.

Locking Widget Positions in Dashboard

Hi,
Is there a way for me to lock the positions of my widgets in the dashboard? I've arranged them in a particular manner and I don't want to accidentally move them. For instance, when clicking a post-it so that I may type on it, often times I'll accidentally move it. So I want to be able to lock them in place, so that they cannot be moved unless unlocked.
There was another post about this... but it was quickly side-tracked and never really discussed the issue.

I use two weather widgets. They kept moving down so this is what i did to fix it.
1. Open terminal app
2. type cd /Library/Widgets/Weather.wdgt and then hit enter
3. type sudo vi Weather.js and hit enter
4. type :set nu and enter. This will show the line numbers.
5. type 484G and no enter. This will move the cursor to line 484 which is
               var y = (window.screenY + lastTopOffset) - (isReloadedWidget ? 0 : topOffset);
6. hit i to start typing as currently it wont be typing and change the above line to
               var y = (window.screenY + lastTopOffset) - (isReloadedWidget ? topOffset : topOffset);
     that is change 0 to topOffset.
7. type :wq and enter.

Keeping "Lock Zoom Position" always enabled, also after restarting Lightroom?

I use "Lock Zoom Position" a lot in Lightroom. Unfortunately it gets switched off after restarting the program.
Is there a way to keep it enabled all the time? I would like to set and forget it and only in certain situations maybe turning it off.
I haven't found a way to enable it by default using the settings or so. :-(

I think the "Available Memory" figure is pretty standard for a 32bit system, which is what I think the OP is running.
@howmanyetc: A couple of observations: the systems specs would seem to be not much higher than the minimum requirements for LR4, so blazing fast it ain't ever going to be. Also is the J drive the new external drive that you bought? If so I'm guessing that it may be USB2 connected? If so having the catalog on a "relatively slow" external drive is probably not the best idea from a performance perspective. The "red lining" of the CPU during exports is entirely likely, the processor is simply not sufficiently powerful to do the work quickly. As a comparison, exports which take maybe 3-4 seconds on my desktop would take upwards of 30 seconds on my old Thinkpad laptop (similar specs to yours) with both cores at 100% with no deviation (and that was back in LR3, so I can't imagine how slow it would be using LR4). The "getting real slow" after a while is more than likely due to your RAM limitations, especially on a 32 bit system.
I'm not saying that you should rush out and buy a brand new powerful system, though I do think you might struggle to make significant improvements given your specs. It sounds as though you are doing everything you can to improve things, however as I said, if the catalog is on a USB2 external drive, trying it back on an internal drive would be the first place that I would start. Having the images on the external is probably OK, your bottleneck for things such as Exports is CPU, not I/O.
Do you need to be writing XMP for all your files? Do you have the "Auto write XMP" setting enabled? If so, turning that off and using Ctrl+S to manually write the XMP at the end of a session may help a little.
Sorry I can't be of more help.

How to lock applications in iphone 5?

Sorry - there is no way to do that. If you are looking for parental controls, then go to the App Store and do a search for Parental Controls to see if there are any apps that meet your criteria.

I want the program to lock applications in iPhone-like program applock

I want the program to lock applications in iPhone-like program applock

I don't believe there is anything you can do to change this, which is by design.
If you always want the root directory or All Contacts available when selecting the Contacts app, you need to leave the app with All Contacts selected.

Lock placeholder positions?

Is it possible to lock the position of placeholders and textboxes in Pages? It would be nice to have templates where only text and pictures could be changed, and not the position of them..

It doesn't look like it can be done. I can lock a placeholder, but then selecting it & going to Insert > Choose… just results in the new image being placed on top. The same thing happened with drag & drop.
A text box just stays where I locked & I couldn't select it's contents.
Definitely something worth leaving feedback to the Pages team about.

Changing application position on desktop when starting application

Is there a way to change the screen position of an application when I am starting the application? Every time I open QuickTime, it starts in the upper left corner.
Even after moving and closing the application it starts up in the upper left corner again.

Settings like this are generally application dependent - that is, you can do it if the application gives you some kind of control over default window positions. Most don't, since the standard is for the upper-left corner. There's no easy way around this
