Personal Folder - how can you hide it?

Is there any way of removing/hiding the "Personal Folder" link?
We've taken it off the start menu and desktop, but it still appear on the 'desktop' when you view it through open/save dialog boxes. We redirect all My Documents etc to other location and the "Personal Folder" link is enabling people to save into their
roaming profile.
Thanks

Hi,
Thank for posting in Microsoft TechNet Forum.
As my understanding, you want to hide user folder on desktop, also “open/save desktop”. You could try the following steps:
Note: before this operation, please backup your Registry.
1.
Open the Start Menu and type regedit.exe in start search box, press enter. If prompted by UAC, click Yes.
2.
Find the location below in Regedit.
1). If your system is Windows 7 32bit, go to
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{59031a47-3f72-44a7-89c5-5595fe6b30ee}\ShellFolder
2). If your system is Windows 7 64bit, go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Classes\CLSID\{59031a47-3f72-44a7-89c5-5595fe6b30ee}\ShellFolder
3.     Right click on the ShellFolder key and click on Permissions, select the Administrators group, then check the Allow box to the right of Full Control and click OK.
4.     In the right pane of regedit, right click on Attributes and click on Modify. The default value is
f084012d, now change to f094012d.
5.     Close Regedit.
Now, the personal folder won’t appear at desktop. If you want to add it to desktop, you can repeat the steps above, and change the Attributes value to
f084012d.
Hope it helps.

Alex Zhao

How can you hide a Continue button until all clickboxes are clicked?

I have seen similar questions to this one, but none seemed to be the exact situation as mine.
What I have: Several images on a screen. When a user clicks an image it is replaced with another image. I am using clickboxes for this task. I do not wish for them to toggle back and forth. Once they click the original image it should stay changed.
What I am trying to do: Once a learner clicks all the images (in no particular order) a Continue button appears that allows them to go to the next screen.
If anyone has some suggestions on this situation please let me know, thanks.

I cannot log in on the forum for the moment, so will try by answering by
mail. I was aware of that problem (have presented those solutions so
often), thought that since you left all images visible once the click box
was clicked it wouldn't be a problem.
Two possible solutions:
   1. Easiest one: add a statement in the Always decision that will Hide
   the click box just clicked. It has no sense to click it another time. That
   will mean that you still can do it with a shared action but that shared
   action will have two parameters now, the second one being the click box
   that has to adapted on each application of the shared action.
   2. If you don't want to make the click box hidden (which means at the
   same time disabled), you'll need a user variable for each click box,
   starting with a default value of 0, and toggle it in the Decision 'Always'
   to 1. The second decision will then need a condition that checks the value
   of all the user variables (with AND) and shows the Next button only when
   all variables have the value of 1.
Sorry, but have to mail, cannot offer a screenshot in that case.

How can you hide folders?

Everytime I plug in an external drive or flash drive I always see the 'recycled' folder for that drive..and sometimes other annoying folders I do not wish to see...Does anybody know how I can 'hide' these folders..as deleting them only brings them back the next time I plug in the drive..
hmmm...

Open the Terminal and type (or paste) this:
chflags hidden
(Note that there's a space at the end... make sure that's there.) Next, drag the folder you want to hide onto the Terminal window. Finally, press return to execute the command. The folder should be hidden, though you might need to unmount and re-mount the drive to see the change.
If you ever want to reverse it, do the same command, but change "hidden" to "nohidden"... of course, you won't be able to see the folder to drag onto the Terminal, so you'll have to enter the path manually. If you're not well-versed in Unix and how file paths are structured, you may want to copy the path from the first command and store it somewhere for future reference.

How can you hide file extensions?

Hello i have a ton of pictures in seperate folders with the extensions .JPEG and i really hate that it shows. I have tried going to the finder and unchecking the show all file extensions, but it does not fix that issue. I also saw this in another topic but i haven't been able to understand it.
Open the Script Editor in the /Applications/AppleScript/ folder and paste in the following:
tell application "Finder"
set extension hidden of every file of entire contents of (selection as alias) to true
end tell
Select the folder enclosing the documents in the Finder, and press the Run button in the Script Editor. If they are enclosed by multiple folders or are at different levels in the folder structure, select the first folder which encloses all the documents.
(22397)
I don't know if it still works. Im also not sure where i put the folder. I have tried programs but they take away the extension and make the picture not open up then.
Please if you can help

yes i found it, but this is how i enter it i dont think its right:
tell application "Finder"
set extension hidden of every file of entire contents of (selection as alias) to true
end tell
/Users....
then i get Syntax error "/"

How can you hide the parameter in Crystal XI

I have three parameters but I would like to hide the 3rd. How should I do that?
ST

It is not possible to hide parameters in crystal XI. Once it is created you should enter all the parameters in order to run the report. In CR2008 you have a new option optional parameters in which you can run the report without entering any parameter value but here also you cannot hide the parameters but you can run the report without entering parameter values.

How can I hide photos in my library?

How can you hide photos in the library in iphoto 4.0.3 ?
Please help,
David

One way you can (unsecurely) hide your photos is to put iPhoto into View by FilmRoll. Simply close any rolls containing photos you don't want seen though this will put all photos in those rolls out of sight. This doesn't block anyone from opening those rolls but it keeps them out of sight as people scroll thru (under supervision).
Another way is to simply trash all pictures you don't want seen since most people don't bother looking in the trash. You can pull them out later unless you make (or allow) the big mistake of emptying the trash before undeleting them. Make a backup.
Perhaps the best option is to go to iPhoto preferences and turn on sharing. You can then choose which albums to share with other accounts on the same computer. Log into a different account (create one if necessary) when you want to let someone browse your library. From that other account they will only be able to see the albums you have approved for sharing

How can you make your persona show on the top and bottom?
Also can you make it bigger at the top to show more of the picture?

Add extra empty toolbars if you want to see more of the persona.<br />
You can create extra toolbars to get extra space via View > Toolbars > Customize<br />
You have to put something on a toolbar (drag a Space item onto it) before closing the Customize window because empty toolbars are automatically removed.<br />
