Should Apple make VoiceOver be permanently removable or disable-able?

Should Apple make VoiceOver be permanently removable or disable-able? It is interfering with my games, I can no longer use F5 in my games because it just turns on voiceover every second time. Or Just make the command to turn it on editable?
I'd really appreciate anyone with an apple support program asking them about this, because for some dumb reason they charge for support now.
This is quite infuriating because there was no warning that I was going to lose my F5 button to something I don't need.

Firefox keeps wanting to start in Safe Mode and it says I can make some changes permanent such as "Disable all add-ons" and others. When I select one of the options I can then "Make Changes and Restart".

When I make my selection it can then proceed to use Firefox. However the next time I open Firefox I get the same problem.
I'm using Windows 7. I have used Firefox for many years with Windows XP and never had this problem. Is there a solution?

See [[Firefox is stuck in Safe Mode]]
"Reset all user preferences to Firefox defaults" on the [[Safe mode]] start window.
Delete the files extensions.* (extensions.rdf, extensions.cache, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox [[Profiles|profile folder]] to reset the extensions registry. New files will be created when required.
See "Corrupt extension files": http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
If you see disabled, not compatible, extensions in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the "Find Updates" button (in Firefox 4: right-click the extension -> "Find Updates") to do a compatibility check.

You've tried contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ , click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption ?

When installing the new iTunes software, the message : "the older version of apple software update cannot be removed." What should I do? I tried deleting files related, but nothing works.

When installing the new iTunes software, the message : "the older version of apple software update cannot be removed." What should I do? I tried deleting files related through control panel or the manual way, but it doesn't work. Am I missing something?

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Apple Software Update entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) downloaded from the Apple Website:

Does it go through properly this time?

Does Apple make/sell the new "Apple In-Ear Headphones with Remote and Mic" with a one sided configuration? So that a person that is deaf in one can hear both sides of a stereo recording? Also, since the "other" bud is not necessary/useful...it's removed.

As far as I know, Apple sells no such configuration. However, under Settings > General > Accessability, there is an option to play back audio in monoural mode, which would then play both halves of a stereo mix in each earbud.
Hope that helps.

Apple really needs to let iPhone 4S users upgrade to the iPhone 5 instead of buying a whole new phone. Apple should just make a small fee of $50 or so.

You should be able to upgrade.

You can upgrade... for the full purchase price.
Why should Apple take a loss because you want a new device. If you want it, buy it.

How do I make screen arrangement permanent?

How do I make screen arrangement permanent? I set it in system preferences -> arrangement tab, but it switches back after a reboot. I have 3 external monitors. One being driven by the DVI port and the other two by two USB display adapters (Display Link with latest drivers installed). I have the DVI monitor in the middle and the two USB monitors on both sides.

Here is a reply I posted about Dual Monitor problems on another thread, whereby Mountain Lion forgets the arrangment of the monitors, I wonder if a similar approach may work with your particular case?
Possible Solution.... needs testing, but initial trial has been successful. Does this work for anyone else?
There are two .plist files I have identified which record the screen arrangement:
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver.plist (top level library, not user library)
~/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.windowserver.FE******-****-****-****-**********2E.plist
(user library, where *** are unique code) I think the first drives the system arrangment (e.g., login window at startup etc), and the second is a user's own setup.
I modified the screen and menu arrangement through System Preferences, which modified file (1).
Using a text editor I copied and pasted everything into a new blank document and saved as com.apple.windowserver.plistthen duplicated the file and named it as per file (2). *even though there were some minor differences.
I backed up and deleted the windowserver plists from both the system and user preference (ByHost) folders, including the lockfiles.
Moved my new documents into their respective folders and rebooted... windows appeared where they were supposed to. (I should mention that I moved the screen and menu arrangement back to the 'wrong' way first, which showed me that the files had indeed altered the arrangement).
The question is - will this now hold?
Perhaps locking the file / changing the permissions to prevent the system updating it might help IF the problem reoccurs?

HT4527 I transferred my library to a new laptop and everything appeared on the screen. I turned off the old computer and the library disappeared. How can I make it a permanent transfer as my old computer is being scrapped. Thanks

Hello Terryfrank,
Congratulations on your new laptop! Also, thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with transferring your iTunes Library to your new computer.
I notice that you are coming from the article “iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer,” and it sounds like you might have used the Home Sharing method outlined in that article.
With Home Sharing, you can stream content from another computer, and it sounds like that is how you have it currently set up. The last step is to import the content to your new computer. Use these steps on the new computer (while the old computer is on) to import the music to your new computer’s hard drive:
Once your new computer sees the Home Share from your old computer, click that Home Share on the left side of iTunes on your new computer.
Select the content in the Home Share that you want to transfer to your iTunes library on your new computer, or choose Edit > Select All to choose all of it. Then, click the Import button in the bottom-right corner of iTunes.
Wait for the content to finish transferring.
Additionally, if you want to transfer your playlists, you can export them from the old computer to the new computer:
Transferring playlists
If you want not only your content but also your playlists to exist on your new computer, you will want to transfer a copy of all your playlists from your old computer. To do this, choose File > Library > Export Library on your old computer. Save the XML file that is created to your desktop.
Send the playlists file to yourself as an e-mail attachment, use an external drive, or use file sharing to move the playlists file to your new computer. Once the file is on your new computer, open iTunes and choose File > Library > Import Playlist. The import process will remove any items from the playlists that you didn't share via Home Sharing.

App store - permanently remove apps

Hi, I'm BJ from Wellington, NZ. I was just wondering if there is a way to permanently remove app entries from the app store - via view account. The only help entries I have seen talk about removing an app from a specific computer or device. This is good to a point but it can still be seen via iCloud or the App Store. I want a feature where I can change my mind and decide I do not want to ever see an app again on any device.
Surely I am not the only one who wants this! I want a way that I can remove it permanently so I never, and I mean never see it again. If anybody has any tips or pointers, look forward to hearing these.
Cheers.

I'm not ssure what the issue is, if you delete an app from your devices and hide it in the Purchases, the only way that you should see it is if you went looking for it.

Permanently Remove Images From IM?

I think Skype should be added the "leave conversation permanently" option.It will make all users have more options. In case, the user is added in a conversation group by someone (his/her friend) but it is not his/her expectation. He/she want to leave permanently that conversation and no one can be added his/her in that conversation.

In order to permanently remove these image files from your computer, you need to delete the references to these files in the main.db -> MediaDocuments table.

Can iMessage be disabled or permanently removed from the iPad

I am trying to disable or permanently remove iMessage from the iPads in our school. I am able to turn it off, but cannot disable or remove it. Any suggestions?

You cannot remove any of the preinstalled apps. From what I see - you cannot restrict it either with restrictions.
Perhaps you should try to contact Apple directly for a solution.
I have read about people that bought iPads that were missing certain settings - iPads that were Purchased as demo models from retailers and their iPads did not have certain standard settings. There must be a way that you can disable those types of things from iPads being used in schools, otherwise, you could have chaos on your hands with apps like Message.
Perhaps you can look for an "iPads in the classroom" forums and see if you can get some direction from one of those.

If that Apple ID's one of yours, click here.
If it's not, ask the person who set the lock to remove it.
If you're the device's original owner, you can also take it and its original receipt to a physical Apple Store.

How do I permanently remove "Authentication Required" window that continues to pop up?

I am running Firefox 15.0.1 on Mac OS 10.6.8. A window continues to pop up that reads, "Authentication Required" and "Enter username and password for ftp://ftp.radiogarage.com". This happens every time Firefox is opened and continues to pop up approximately every 30-60 seconds until I close Firefox. How do I permanently remove/delete/get rid of this pop up window? I have clicked on Help > Troubleshooting Information > Reset Firefox but that has not solved the issue. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

If you are using two iPhones on the same Apple Account by using the same Apple ID you can remove one by following the following:
Choose Settings > Store and tap Sign out
The apps and such should remain. If you want to clear all of that you can do the following:
The Erase all Content and Settings feature under Settings/General/Reset will remove your content and settings.
