Prevent iPhone Mail from loading images in HTML e-mails

Hello there!
Is it possible to prevent iPhone Mail from loading images in e-mails?
If yes, where can I change those settings?
Cheers,
Thomas

Ian, thanks for your quick reply.
I just hope Apple is going to build this feature into one of the next firmware updates, since from my point of view this is not only a security concern, but could turn out quite expensive if you are on a bad price plan.

Is there a way to prevent Mail from loading non system fonts?

For over a year, and a system OS upgrade, Mail has been taking 7 - 10 minutes to load all the thousands of fonts I have on my computer for graphic design. This started with Snow Leopard on my 2009 Mac Pro (10 GB RAM, 2 TB HDD). At first I didn't know why the computer was taking such a long time to finish boot up. So I reformatted the drive--zeroing it out. Then I installed Mavericks and reinstalled everything else. Finally I tried logging the system activity during startup and noticed that something to do with fonts took up the biggest chunk of this time. Because Mavericks loads any programs you leave running at shut down, I saw that if Mail had the fonts window open, the list of fonts would slowly grow, filling up with the many font families I use for my work. I called tech support for my font management utility but they say the fonts are not in the system and and shouldn't affect the system during startup. In the end I gave up and just go drink a few coffees after hitting the start button. It's like going back to the early days 25 years ago.
Can I stop Mail from loading any non-system fonts? I never use anything but the default font.

Hey SchenkerBob,
It is possible to disable non-system fonts temporarily for all applications using the Font Book application. This article explains how to do so -
Mac Basics: Font Book - Apple Support
In particular -
Disable and enable specific fonts
In situations where you'd like to prevent a font from being available in applications, but you don't want to completely remove the font from your Mac, you can use Font Book to disable the font.
In Font Book, click "All Fonts" in the Collection column.
Click the name of the font in the Font column.
Choose Disable "Font Name" Family from the Edit menu.
Since it might be problematic to have to disable each font individually, you can create a collection of fonts and disable the collection. See the article for how to create a font collection -
Organize fonts as collections
When working with fonts, you may discover that you use certain fonts frequently, but rarely use others. To make it easier to find the font you are looking for, you can organize your fonts into collections.
From the Font Book File menu, choose New Collection.
Type in a name for the new collection.
Click "All Fonts" in the Collection column.
Drag the fonts that you want from the Font column onto the name of your new collection in the Collection column.
You can then disable collections of fonts -
You can also disable or enable all fonts in a collection: Click the name of the collection in the Collection column, then choose Disable "Collection Name" or EnableCollection Name" " from the Edit menu.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Happy computing,

Junk mail still loading images

Hi -- I've set my Mail program to NOT display remote images, and Junk Mail filtering is on, but if I click on a message marked as "Junk" it still loads up the image! Doesn't this kind of defeat the security involved in marking a message junk? Loading the remote image now tells the spammer that my email address is valid and I am clicking on their messages! How do I tell Mail to stop it? This makes me wary of even trying to check if a message is spam or not in fear of accidentally transmitting my existence to the spammer...

Hi geefunk3.
it still loads up the image!
What image? The setting is just to prevent Mail from loading remote images. There is no harm in Mail displaying images sent as attachments with the message. Only images that require connecting to a remote server to display them are an issue -- see How HTML Email Messages Relate to Unsolicited Commercial Email ("spam").

Mail is open but it is frozen, being this the reason why you cannot open the Mail window. Press Alt, Command and Esc keys or go to  > Force Quit, select Mail and force quit it. Finally, you will be able to turn off or restart the MacBook

Can't prevent unwanted toolbar from loading in Acrobat Pro 9

I downloaded an evaluation copy of EverMap AutoBookmark plug-in. I prefer not to automatically open toolbars that I don't use regularly when first opening Acrobat, but I can't keep the AutoBookmark toolbars from loading, even if I uncheck those particular toolbars. EverMap support claims that it is a problem in Acrobat. I have also had the same issue with a free plug-in from the Acrobat for Legal Professionals site. Plug-ins work fine, but I can't prevent the toolbars from loading on startup.
Anyone else experience this issue?

Sometimes it is simplest to simply enter the Acrobat folder and move the plugins that are a problem. Just copy then to a backup so you can put them back when you need them. I think that the presence or absence of the plugins is all that Acrobat needs.

An error prevented the view from loading

I'm using SQL Server 2012 Express and I'm building a report with one table. I dragged and dropped two data set elements into the table that has two columns (Product Name and Product Description). Both the dataset elements have
a data type of varchar (50) in SQL Server 2012 Express. The table with those two elements is the only data I have in Design view. When I click on Preview, the Preview screen states 'An error prevented the view from loading.'. This is difficult
to diagnose, because in the Error List there are '0 Errors', '0 Warnings', and '0 Messages'. I would like help understanding if there is another error log I can observe to understand the issue, or if there are basic SQL Server 2012 Express Reporting
Services debugging techniques. Please help. Thank you,
Additionally, when I run the query in SQL Server 2012 Express and Reporting Services Query Designer the query results are correct.
Also, when I click the start debugging button, the report displays and I can export it to pdf, however the Previous still displays the error.

Well, funny stuff. I shut the solution down yesterday, then I booted my computer today and started the solution AND JUST LIKE MAGIC....it works. I can't explain it. Persistence pays, that's the answer sometimes.

How to prevent the User from loading more than one seq file?

Hi,
I would like to prevent the tester operator from loading more than one test sequence. Any ideas how to do it?
Thanks
Rafi

Hi Marty,

Hello mhousel,
Testexec.exe by default loads the sequence files that were last open when it runs. It is often desired behavior to have multiple sequence files load automatically.
[Mark Housel] Maybe for some but certainly not for me.
This should be easily handled by TestStand without any problems. What do you mean by "chaos ensues"?
Certainly Teststand doesn't care a bit how many sequences are open. But, when my sequences open they initialize HW of the ATE associated with
that sequence file during the sequenceFileLoad callback. e.g. I allocate TELNET handles to a terminal
server that connects to multiple console within the system and als for
the UUT.
If a second sequence opens it knows nothing about the other sequence and again tries to open a TELENT session to the same port of the
terminal server and obviously fails, so my sequence reports that it
can't properly initialize the ATE HW. Bad juju!
Are your sequence files set to run automatically when they are loaded?
I guess so. Other than the trick of logging in as the special noExecution user and having special code in my sequence and modified Process Model I have no idea how to prevent a sequence fronm "runnin" when opened.
If you want to prevent Testexec.exe from loading multiple files, you should be able to close out one of the open files when it loads and that sequence file should not load in the future. I hope that helps.
The trick I read somewhere else of modifying the Testexec.uir file to never re-load a sequence file automatically seemes to have covered up solved the problem.
Thanks,
Mark

How do I stop mail from loading old mail?

Mail stopped loading images...

Over the past few weeks, my mail has stopped loading images - they are there if I go to www.me.com, but not on my Powerbook. Over the same timescale, the regular Apple Hot News feeds on RSS have stopped and I cannot access iTunes store - get the message 'error-2094'. Any help....?

When you receive email in HTML format (that is, as a web page), the message will usually contain links to images hosted on a remote server. When you display those images, the sender of the message will know that you've read his message, when you read it, who your ISP is, and approximately where you are. You may regard this as an invasion of your privacy. If the message is spam, then your address has been confirmed as valid and you've been confirmed as someone who opens spam messages. That will ensure you get even more spam.
If you don't care about the above, select
Mail ▹ Preferences... ▹ Viewing
from the menu bar and check the box marked
Display remote images in HTML messages

When using "we transfer" to send great size documents, the mail is loading more times the same mail (from Digitalus)

It happen when I use "we transfer", but also when somebody else use it to send something big to me.
I load my mail from digitalus, it stands there for 1 or 2 weeks, because I want to download the same information on several computers. Every minute of 5 minutes Thunderbird download/transfer my mail from digitalus to thunderbird. But this happen more times when I or somebody else use "we transfer". Can you do something on the program, or can I change something, so this happens not.
Because now I have finished my mail, but after I get a mail from "we transfer", I can start all over again.
Thanks for the answer.
greetings

I had saved one copy as an .asp but then resaved it to .xhtml
I'm assuming this is a static web site. Rename (F2) all your pages with .html or .htm extension.
.xhtml is not a valid extension.

Prevent Plug-In From Loading/Running

Hi Folks,
What is the recommended way to prevent a plug-in from loading (CS3 and CS4, Mac and Win)? I'm releasing a pre-release build of a plug-in, and I want it to expire after a certain date. When the user starts up ID or IC after the expiration date, I want to pop up an alert and inform the user that the pre-release has expired, and then not load the plug-in.
Another way to do this would be for me allow the plug-in to load, but disable all of the UI, but I would rather just not allow it to load at all.
Thanks in advance for any help!
-- Jim

Ages ago ...
ID3SDK/docs/references/sdkdocs/api/classPlugIn.html#a3
Called when the application loads the plug-in.
Typically a plug-in that needs to do some action at startup should use IStartupShutdownService. The plug-in should override Load only if there is some global state which, if missing, would cause the plug-in to be useless.
Returns:
bool16 kTrue if plug-in loaded OK, false otherwise.
This never worked correctly, some of the resources would still load and cause defunct menu items etc. Instead of fixing the feature, the comment was adjusted. :(
I fear you're stuck with locked UI.

Prevent Startup Form from Loading using Command Line Arguments

Hi there
I'm developing a VB.NET windows forms application in VS2013.
The application will have 2 ways of being executed, one being by the user manually and the other being automated by the task scheduler.
When executed by the task scheduler, command line arguments will be used so that the application is aware that it is being run automatically and not by a user.
My problem is that I want the startup form to load when run by a user but I don't want it to load when it is run automatically, I just want to execute code.
Is it possible to prevent the startup form from loading by using the commandline arguments from the MyApplication_Startup event?
Cheers

Hi Aureuz,
>>Is it possible to prevent the startup form from loading by using the commandline arguments from the MyApplication_Startup event
It is impossible to accomplish it in the MyApplication_Startup event, we can use Form.Shown event:
#Form.Shown Event
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.form.shown(v=vs.110).aspx
If we start a form by using the commandline arguments, the count of CommandLineArgs will be above one, if so, use Me.Hide() method to hide this form.
Private Sub Form1_Shown(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Shown
Dim args As String() = Environment.GetCommandLineArgs()
If args.Count > 1 Then
Me.Hide()
Else
Me.Show()
End If
End Sub
You can also uncheck "Enable application framework" on the project properties application tab and select your startup object to a module object:
Module Module1
Sub Main()
Dim args As String() = Environment.GetCommandLineArgs()
If args.Count > 1 Then
'Run your background code
Else
Dim f As New Form1
f.ShowDialog()
End If
End Sub
End Module

Preventing Desktop Mananger from loading at startup

Hi
I am running Vista and the latest version of BB Desktop Manager on my laptop.
Sometimes, I need to be up and running quickly, but DM takes ages to load on my laptop and prevents other programs from starting too.
Is there a way to set DM so that it only starts when I want it to - not when Windows starts?
Any help appreciated!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

This option comes while installing Desktop Manager. You need to modify installing option from Add/Remove programs of you computer. There you'll find Modify option and then go to Repair Desktop Manager. Uncheck the start up option.
Another way is modifying Startup process of the windows by using msconfig command.

Preventing Startup Items From Loading

How do I get the startup items to not load in OS 10.8.5? I've upgraded and now when I press the Shift key after I login to an account it doesn't prevent the startup items from loading. What key(s) do I press to prevent the startup items from loading in Mountain Lion?
Thanks

Are you trying to boot into the Safe Mode? If not, why don't you want the startup items to load? More information about what you are trying to do would help.

How to prevent recalcitrant programs from loading

After a reboot I have one program that continues to load at start-up even after I am sure it is 1) not in the "login Items" window in preferences, 2) is not set to "open at login," and 3) I have quit the program before re-boot. Can anyone tell me what else I can do to prevent the program from opening at login. I am set as current (and only) user and adminstrator. I have searched Library for clues, but found none.
Thanks,
Fred Wolfe

...now that i've found it, i'd have to agree with the
last thread's advice to not worry about it, except
for one exception: when my app is executed, it checks
for a settings file. if not present, it initiates
these settings (asks the user to setup a password,
etc). if a second instance were loaded, the potential
exists, depending on which instance were closed
first, for the user to unknowingly save over their
initial program setup.
any suggestions for getting around that?
Perhaps you can create the settings file as a place holder when the program detects that it isn't there, either empty or with default values. Get the user input and overwrite the place holding file.
Subsequent executions, or a second execution on the same desktop, "see" the settings file exists and skip that portion.
