Startup sound - how to switch it off?

Just wondered if somebody knows how to switch off the sound playing when Mac Book loading? Can't find this option
Thanks a lot!

There is no option for turning off the start-up sound (which is actually meant to signal the end of a successful hardware check). I believe there are (or used to be) third party gadgets which might turn it off, but I always shy away from such things.
The simplest solution is to mute your sound before you shutdown/restart.

How to switch on / off data service to Vivaz?

While I was abroad, I experienced data roaming which is charged per KB, when I was connected to WiFi in my vicinity. I would like to know how to switch on / off data service by changing settings on my phone, SE Vivaz.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi,
There is no way to simpy switch data off and on with the Vivaz handset I'm afraid. However my best suggestion would be to create a dummy data account on the handset. If you set this as the account you wish to use when browsing the Internet through your network operator, it will be unable to connect. If you are using Wi-Fi, this will mean that if you go out of range, the handset will not be able to switch to your mobile network data.
This can be done by following these steps:
Settings > Connectivity > Destinations > Access Point > Add New > Packet Data > Name the account (for example, Dummy account) > Select Internet.
Once set up, go into Internet within Destinations and set the dummy account as priority 2 for Internet behind your Wi-Fi connection.
I'd also recommend tapping your Data Internet connection, selecting Edit and ensuring 'Use Access Point' has 'After Confirmation' written under it. This will ensure you are asked if you wish to use that connection before it automatically connects.
Let me know how you get on

How to switch iSight off

Hi
I have purchested a video grabber but iSight is coming over it, do you know how to switch iSight off?
Ta

Technically the MBA's camera is called its "FaceTime" camera. The "iSight" name was dropped some years ago and now refers only to the iPhone's rear camera, and I'm assuming you are not referring to the external, FireWire iSight camera or its LED.
For privacy concerns Apple decided to make software control of the FaceTime camera's LED impossible. If the LED is off, so is the camera.
Stick tape over the LED as Klaus1 wrote. There is no other way to disable it, without physically disassembling the camera, potentially destroying it in the process.

Air Port Extrem: How to switch on / off automatically time based ?

I like to have my Air Port Extreme switched off during night. How can I switch on at 6am and switch off at 11pm ?
Horst

The AirPorts do not have a feature to control power-on/power-off the base station itself, although, you can control access to it based on time. For what you are looking for, you may want to consider using a timer which you can plug the AirPort into.

"Local snapshots" takes up all resources - how to switch it off?

I have a MBP 2,4 GHz Intel Corde Duo 2, 4 GB Ram, 500 GB HD, Time Macine and on Lion. I want to switch off Local Snapshots as it takes all my CPU an Mem however the Terminal command sudo tmutil disablelocal only holds until the next reboot. Rebootking takes forever and indexing should be far behind me as well. I would be grateful for any hints on how to swith Local Snapshots off permanently and how to get back to the performance I was used to under SL.
Many thanks, EF

thanks, this only works until reboot, so unfortunately not much use
Since I usually only login after a reboot, it helped to define the following apple script and to add it to the start up items:
tell application "Terminal"
activate
do script "sudo tmutil disablelocal" in 0
end tell
open Utilities -> Apple Script Editor
Type in the script above
save it as an application
Open System Preferences -> Users and Groups -> Login Items
Select the current User and - in the left column- click "+"
Then select your new script.
The draw back will be that each time you log in you will be prompted for your super user password. So it will be annoying if you log in frequently. But at least you will not forget to turn off snapshots after a reboot.

How to switch ON/OFF Unassigned Hierarchy Nodes during Query Runtime?

We have a GL Account Hierarchy based on an FSV that we use in BW reports.
All our reports are web reports accessible via BW Portal.
This hierarchy has an Unassigned Node also that we have suppressed (switched off) for display via Hierarchy Attributes Settings.
When you check the Suppress Unassigned Node box the unassigned nodes do not show on the report.
This has been working fine so far until we have this one requirement where user would like to see unassigned GL Accounts also.
We would like to check/uncheck this flag (Supress Unassigned Node) during the query run time.
Is there a way to control showing/hiding of unassigned node of a hierarchy during query runtime?

Hi Ram,
If you have set hierarchy attribute as display unassigned node, then you can simply select the root as filter in order not to display the unassignd node.
However if you have set hierarchy attribute as suppress unassigned node, then you can't choose the unassigned node by the filter.
So if users want both, you need to set hierarchy attribute as display unassigned node. You cannot really change this setting at runtime by user.
Regards,
Patricia

AA on import (how to switch it off!)

I'm trying to import pixel-art footage into Premiere. Whatever I try the package will represent the art blurred.
Is there a way (should be) to switch off the automatic anti-aliasing of the artwork while importing?

I don't know what "pixel-art" is or what you mean exactly by "package", but I'm going to assume you're importing an image into Premiere which shows up with jaggies.
If so, check the Playback and Paused resolution of the Source & Program Monitors (right-click on them for the resolution options) . If they're set to anything less than "Full", the content might show up blurry.

I think my iphone is overloaded by open apps - i cant remember how to switch them off

i cant remember how to shut down open apps - i did it last time my phone wasn't working properly and it solved the issue

Your phone is not overloaded by open apps. Very few, if any, of the recent apps list you are thinking of are open.
If you feel you must, double-click the home button to see the list of recent apps and delete them in the usual way. But read this as well: http://whenwillapple.com/blog/2010/04/19/iphone-os-4-multitasking-explained-agai n/

How to switch totally off Firefox updating reminders?

I don't want any upgrade reminders. Anytime. Never.
When I decide to upgrade sometime in the future, I'll use manual upgrade.
How can I do that?
Thanks in advance.

You should probably never open the Help > About window as that can trigger a search for updates...

How to switch autocommit off

Hi i am using this dll System.Data.Oracleclient.dll.
which contains System.Data.Oracle.Client namespace using Microsoft .NET Data Provider for Oracle.
I am unable to do rollback.
In java i m set this property using connection.setAutoCommit(false);
How to do this using this System.Data.Oracleclient.dll.
I had tried with savepoint and rollback also but no luck.
I want to rollback the last update operation.
How to do this?
Thanks

Hi,
There's no equivalint of SetAutoCommit(false) in .NET that I know of. You'll simply need to wrap the operation in a transaction and then commit/rollback explicitely.
Hope it helps,
Greg

How to switch on/off the creation of internal order at item level

Dear experts,
When create service order in CRM, is there any way to control the creation of internal order at item level?
For certain item category, the cost should be distributed to R/3 Back End system, but for others it should never be transferred.
Please advise, thanks in advance.

Hi Yukun,
We are also struggling with the same problem.
did you find any correct solution to the problem by now.
However one setting in backend r/3 is that of controlling scenario-- just check whether the controlilng scenario is set with the level 'transaction'
i guess if you set it to transcation and at the next level you create for a particular transaction type you need to create a controlling scenario then i guess the problem will be solved.. we tried tthe same settings however we are unable to find the result to the problem.
if you find something important do write back...
hope that your problem is solved...
and ours also...

Update of FF beta to 8 made it a lot slower. Music on Windows mediaplayer now gets interrupted when I use FF. FF beta (8) asked for auto feedback - opted yes. Wonder if that function slows FF, but how to switch it off? FF 7.0.1 (non beta) is just as slow.

Laptop is 7 years old, but previous version (beta) of Firefox was nice and fast.

Turn off startup sound and red led.

Hey,
i need to turn off my vado startup sound, how to i do that?
Also, i dont want my red led to light up when i am filming. Help needed with that on also.
Thanks.

Turn "Instant Record" on in the setting by pressing the Play/Pause and Delete buttons at the same time. When it comes out of sleep mode it doesn't make a sound.
Being able to turn off the display while recording would also be useful or at least be able to dim it. I've disturbed some people while recording a play in a dark theatre. And I know it bothers me when someone is playing with there cell phone or other device in a low light situation.
