Make the update nag go away?

Anyone figure out how to make the app store stop nagging you to update, and better, hide the updates in the app store?  I have no intention of updating to the new iWork until it's a finished product.  I can't find anywhere on apple.com to submit feedback.

Menu > Apple > System Preferences > Software Update > uncheck Auto Update
If people only kept this turned off they would they wouldn't be ambushed by Apple.

  • My server keeps telling me that I have an update for 10.10.1 and that I should look for it in the app store. I do that and am not finding anything that makes the update notification go away. I have installed an update the app store says I need.

    I updated to Yosemite on my Mac mini/server. Then my server wouldn't work. I updated and bought the software needed when updating to Yosemite. The server seems to be working. Subsequently I've started getting a notification on the server icon that an update is needed. When i look for details I'm instructed to go to the app store. I've done that. In the updates category no update is found by the app store system. I then went to the purchases category and was informed I needed to install the server software I'd purchased. While I'd installed before, I did it again. I still have the 1 in a red circle covering part of the server icon. I have restarted the mac mini. I can't figure out what step I'm missing. The continued presence of the red circle suggests that the software still isn't installed. Looked into restarting the server in help but don't find clear instructions that make sense. Suggestions from someone who has a mac mini server and has worked with this topic would be greatly appreciated. General comments from anyone who has not looked at this kind of problem before might turn out to be unenlightening for this neophyte.

    I tried turning the computer off and then back on. The alerts don't show the notice to update as resolved. Hopefully this is not a problem or an indicator or another problem. Should I ignore or reload 10.10.1 from the app store to trigger a resolved check in a green circle?
    Interesting that I had to buy server software after my free Yosemite download. I would have hoped that the two pieces of software would have gone together without any complication. It is not positive to end up buying a problem. Ah well, time to move on.

    Yes, many know what this means.  You can too.  Just type in "error 1004" in the search box at the top of this page.  Or, just look to the right.  You'll find many links in the "More Like This" box. 
    Always good forum etiquette to search for previous posts on the topic before posting.

  • I keep getting a pop up to install firebug and its getting really irritating. I think it could harm my computer (because my computer has warned me it might be a virus). How can i make the pop up go away?

    you keep sending a pop up message saying that i need to install firebug. Its getting annoying... really annoying. Please make it go away. My computer warns me it might be a virus or affect my computer in some way. I see no need for this firebug. Just make the pop up go away please.
    ''moderator deleted the email address in the title of this thread - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Forum+and+chat+rules+and+guidelines''

    You probably installed an extension which requires Firebug to be installed. Get rid of that extension and that message won't appear any more.

  • HT4972 I replaced the computer I originally used to synch my iPhone. I get the message stating that my content will be erased, even though this is the computer I now synch with. Is there a way to make the update recognize the new computer?

    I replaced the computer I originally used to synch my iPhone. When trying to update to iOS5.0, I get the message stating that my content will be erased, even though this is the computer I now synch my phone with. Is there a way to make the update recognize the new computer so that my content will be kept?

    The best option is to copy your entire iTunes folder from your old computer to your new one using one of the methods described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527.  This will allow iTunes on your new computer to recognize and sync with your phone without deleting content.  You will also need to copy over any other synced data not in your iTunes library such as photos synced to your phone, calendars and contacts.
    If you can't do this, these articles will help you start syncing with your new computer with minimal or no data loss:
    Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive
    Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device

  • HT201263 My iPad 1 can only be updated to iOS 5 yet most apps run on iOS 7. Why can't I make the update on my iPad 1? Is this so I buy another iPad 2+? Now why would I want to buy something that will be obsolete in a few years?

    My iPad 1 can only be updated to iOS 5 yet most apps run on iOS 7. Why can't I make the update on my iPad 1? Is this so I buy another iPad 2+? Now why would I want to buy something that will be obsolete in a few years?  I really want to purchase an Live TV plan yet I need iOS 7 to run most TV apps.
    Can Apple tell me why my iPad 1 is obsolete?
    g

    It's not obsolete as much as the first gen simply lacks the power to run the newer operating systems. IT doesn't have enough RAM. If someone managed to hack it to get iOS 6 or 7 on there they'd just have a slow, boggy and unresponsive device. (think putting windows 7 on an old laptop.
    Unfortunately software moves faster than hardware. Every thing goes obsolete. I've had my ipad 2 for two and a half years now and I know it only has so much longer left to it too. Just the 'joys' of advancing technology.

    To Final Cut Pro X? You want it, you just buy it. No separate upgrade pricing.

  • I cannot make the update of the iphone any more because the preceding owner made the jailbreak blow my telephone does not want to be re-ignited more and N accepts any restoration which must I make? thank you m to help

    I cannot make the update of the iphone any more because the preceding owner made the jailbreak blow my telephone does not want to be re-ignited more and does not accept any restoration which must I make? thank you to help me

    To put your iPhone back in jail do a restore.
    This will put iPhone back into factory condition and you can get your updates (assuming you want the updates).

  • Can I make the personal domain go away?!

    Problem: I played with the personal domain thing in the 2.0 phase of iWeb, and decided to wait until the update fixed things. I USED to have my GoDaddy URLS point to each of my various iWeb sites, which they still do. However, when I publish now, iWeb loads to that personal domain, and I can't make it stop. I never changed the CNAME or anything on my GoDaddy site, just went on .Mac to add a personal domain to the list.
    Can I make iWeb STOP trying to load to that personal domain? I deleted it from the .Mac page, but iWeb still shows it at the bottom of the pane as a green dot followed by my email (domain). Now EVERY site loads to that domain, followed by /sitename.
    Old domain: www.swatphysician.com pointed to
    Old iWeb site: http://web.mac.com/macdaddymd/iWeb/swatphysician
    New iWeb is www.swatphysician.com/swatphysician
    I tried republishing the entire thing to .Mac after I deleted that personal domain from .Mac, but it did the same. What I want to do is go back to the old way... use my GoDaddy redirect to point to the various sites by their own personal domain names (www.76whs.com, www.76lancers.com, etc.).
    Can I make iWeb forget it ever heard of my personal domain?!

    I explored the possibility of setting up the personal domain feature, but was unable to get the support needed from my host to ensure that it would function properly. I'm considering simply using web forwarding to send people where they need to go. I added and removed the personal domain information from within my .Mac account and it had nothing to do with iWeb. Maybe I'm clueless on this, but that was my experience.
    Anyone who has previously been pointing to their .Mac iWeb site will discover that all the addresses will change after upgrading to iWeb 2.0.1 version. At least, that was my experience. Blog entries have a completely new method for naming pages (old pages are given new URLs based on the new naming system). The entire site was under an iWeb folder (as you pointed out in your message). The new sites are located directly under your .Mac account name.

  • Why has the updates taken performance away.

    I have owned an iPhone 4s 16gb for 2 years roughly. ( I only use 4gb of its capacity) It was the best smart phone in my opinion among 98% of the surrounding people i know, opinions also.  I can not come up with any other reason as to why the performance has dropped off the charts except for every time i was prompted to update its software with the little red dot notification, the phone immediately showed signs of being very unstable and unpredictable.  This makes me very hesitant to purchase a new iPhone 6 for a disrespectfully discounted price from the service providers ($199.00) I would have been more than happy to upgrade had the updates didnt make the phone so glitchy.  For example, when i rotate the phone while texting from vertical to horizontal, one of the following or ALL happens every single time since update. 
    1.screen turns black
    2.it records an audio text on its own
    3.half the keyboard disappears
    4.the texts appear to continue across the screen repetitively mirroring them
    5.that bar onto of the keyboard to help with words you're possibly spelling blinks and opens and closes by its self
    6.while texting horizontal and receiving notification of another text the screen freezes, and the notification appears opposite of the position of the phone.
    7.the safari history never clears after i clear data and history in the settings.
    I think thats all of them, but maybe 2 more.  Anyway, this is ridiculous change from the update, its embarrassing to complain about these problems in front of the now 2 people out of 37 that have samsung and LG phones.  Its really dissappointing and very unexpecting for me as I've never experienced such problems in the time I've owned iPad mini, iPod, iMac, and iPhone.  I have atlas 3 friends that have switched to Samsungs and LG phones because of these very problems i listed above.  APPLE REDEEM YOURSELVES, THIS IS WAY BELOW YOUR REPUTATION LATELY. 

    I agree.  The issue is the 4S is now 4 generations old, with 32 bit architecture trying to run an operating system designed for 64 bit.  The reality is Apple would have been better off not permitting the 4S to upgrade beyond what the 4 can (7.1.2).  But then people would have cried and moaned that their device was left in the dust.  Technology moves fast and a phone that is now 4 years out, just isn't going to handle the iOS like a newer phone.

  • I am getting a pop-up when opening Firefox. "It is strongly recommended that you apply this update as soon as possible". BUT, when I "click" on it, it never makes the update?

    A bar keeps moving across the page as if the update is being installed, but it never completes the install. Instead, it just keeps going on and on. I have left it going for over an hour & it still doesn't update? HELP PLEASE! If it is important, I want to get it updated as soon as possible. I've already been trying for over a week.

    Do a clean (re-)install:
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    * Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    * Do not remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • Why wont the updated apps go away in my update tab on itunes.

    After updating the apps, is there a way to clear the updated apps list on i tunes?

    Because Apps can now auto update if there is no history of what is updated you won't be able to see what Apps were updated and when, and also more importantly what was new. So it makes sense to have a brief history so you can keep tabs on these things.  This is by design in iOS 7.
