Safari and webmail email alerts - how to turn off?

One of the webmails I use has annoying feature - it alerts me with every incoming email. Safari icon starts to jump at the Dock and a small window appears telling me that I have email!
I have searched my webmail settings but there is no way to turn it off. So there should be one at the Safari or Mac settings but I did not find anything there either! I have turned off pop-ups but apparently this small "thing" that appears is not considered a pop-up.
Can anyone help me how to turn off this distraction?
Sasha
P.S. My Mac is iMac Intel and Safari is 2.0.4

There is an option under Preferences > Auto-Correction to "Automatically detect email and web addresses." You want that one unchecked. There is also a link inspector, second from the right, with options to enable hyperlinks or make all hyperlinks inactive. Seems contradictory to me & I've found that if a document already has some linked text, changing these preferences doesn't change the existing links. And, if you paste in something with a link the link will still be active.

  • Any way to get imessages to show as texts when looking at my bill?  (and yes I know how to turn off imessages)

    I'd like imessages to show as texts on bill.

    As mentioned...the only way to do it would be to turn off iMessage. Otherwise, it isn't a SMS text that VZW can charge you for (or deduct from your texting plan) so it will not show on your bill. If you're wanting to do this in order to monitor someone else's iMessage usage I don't think there is a way to do so...iMessage isn't an option in the restrictions menu so I don't think you could even get your hands on the other device and put the restriction on it if you wanted to shut off the iMessage capability so they could only send text messages (if they had the code to change restrictions then that wouldn't work anyway because they could go back and change it). No idea if there is or ever will be a iMessage tracking app but that may be your only hope...

  • Itunes not opening and don't know how to turn off anti virus

    My Itunes wont launch, there is no error report, I turned my firewall off , I want to disable my Norton anti virus but I do not know how.
    Thanks
    Aimee

    Ok, you can go to Norton's website and look there. But if it is in the bottom right hand corner, you should be able to right click it to disable it. I hate Norton and I do not have norton, but I am sure you can do it that way. I scrapped Norton a long time ago.
    Good Luck

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    It's all or nothing. You can to selectively get notifications for one account and not the others. As for g-mail, how do you have it set up? If it's not set to poll automatically, or set up as push (as an Exchange account), then you won't be notified until you maually open the mail client and pull it down.

  • How to turn off "CD Imported Alert" for itunes

    I have a radio show where I play music from my computer while I am importing CDs and I need to know how to turn off the alert sound in itunes that tells me that a cd has been completely imported such that it will not play on my show. I just cannot find the setting to turn it off though. Please help.

    If you're doing a radio show, chances are you don't want ANY of the silly sound effects coming through your speakers. At least, I wish everyone doing audio work did that. (I hear that dumb Windows click all the time on the local NPR station.) Anyway, if you go into "System Preferences" and click on "Sound", use the "Sound Effects" tab to set the alert volume all the way to the left (off). And, while you're there, uncheck the 3 radio buttons below about playing sound effects. That should do it.

    How to turn off notifications when "Actions" and "Notifications" don't let you do anything?

    So what happens if you go to each of your posts here on ASC with this account (assuming you only have one) and click the Stop Email Notifications button in the upper right hand corner?  Is it grayed out for all of your posts? 
    Perhaps you'll get most assistance in the Using Apple Support Communities forum.

  • How to turn off receiving apple support communities emails

    how to turn off receiving apple support communities emails on imac and ipad?

    In addition ,you can  go to Your Stuff - Profile- Manage Email Notifications (in the upper right hand Actions box) - either check individual threads to remove or click in the top box which will check all the threads and then click on Remove Email Notifications.
    Also check the tutorial for managing email subscriptions
    You might also make sure that you haven't subscribed to one of the communities by mistake. 
    Go to the community that you are receiving the emails from and the same box called "Actions" will appear there just like it does next to the individual question.  Make sure that you are not reciveing email notifications for that community.  Probably the community  where you asked your question.  Typically that is what causes people to get 100's of email notifications. I think that this is not included in the tutorial so a lot of people miss it.

  • I'm getting a bell sound every minute, and don't know how to turn it off.

    I'm getting a bell sound every minute, and don't know how to turn it off.

    I just fixed it!  I believe it was my Time Machine Connection.  I have a wireless connection to a NAS storage device (MyBookLive), which was not working properly.  I fixed it yesterday, and after time machine was downloaded, the bell went away.  I think Time Machine was trying to work every minute, and gave an alert when it couldn't.   Does this sound plausible?

    I'm using same icloud and same apple ID on two iphones. Now i get calls from same number on both iphones at the same time. How to turn off that?

    Apple ID's are not device specific, so when you changed it on the iPad 2 it changed it on the iPhone 4 as well, since it's the same account still. What you need to do is create a second Apple ID (so you'll have two accounts, one for iPhone 4 and a seperate one for iPad 2).
    To create a new Apple ID on your iPad 2:
    1) Go into Settings > Store.
    2) If you are already signed in, tap your Apple ID on the screen and you will be given a few options, one of which is to sign out of your account.
    3) After you sign out, now click the "Sign in" button.
    4) Tap "Create New Apple ID" and follow the instructions on-screen.
