The Pop-up That Won't Die In Pages Tracking

Pages version 4.1 (923) running on Lion, OSX 10.7
When you turn on Tracking, an annoying translucent post-it pops up—no matter where you put your cursor. It tells you the last thing you did in the document, and when you did it—like that's something you need to know.
And it won't go away until you click someplace else in the document.
AND there's no way to turn the feature off. Really, I looked everywhere in preferences, and an Apple Pages specialist confirmed that on the phone.
I swear, it's as bad as the paperclip in MS Word.
OH! And on Lion -- the damned thing stays on the screen when you switch apps. I'm looking at one right now at the bottom of the screen, while I'm in Safari. And it MOVES—now it's on top of this message's menu bar. It appears and disappears. To get rid of it, I'd have to switch pack to Pages and click somewhere in the doc. It's like a villain in Doctor Who.
Since there's no way to turn it off in the program, that leaves the terminal—which I've never used but am willing to brave if someone would be so kind as to tell me what the frak to do and how to do it?
Pretty please?
Or is there someone smart enough write an Applescript or patch?? I'm dyin' here.
Thank you in advance,
outlaw

As far as I know, the local menu entitled "Bulles de suvi" in French isn't deeply buried !
Check the item "Hide All" and, what a wonderful surprise, the post-its will no longer pop.
To Peter's attention, it's not a system feature, just a Pages's documented one

You may have installed the "VSearch" trojan, perhaps under a different name. Remove it as follows.

You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that this Internet criminal has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing, has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.

I had to manually download the new version of itunes.. via tools, it gave me 4 items to download and i did not download all 4 compenants. Does anyone know how to get back to the pop up that contains tools so i can redownlaod all of them.

I lost my old iphone and have a new 5s.. i need to sync to itunes. i had to donwload manually via tools but i didnt download all four files. now when i plug my phone into itunes it says there is an error bc i didnt download all the files. so when i go into itunes now and check for updates it says its up to date. the problem is with the phone support file i didnt download.
Does anyone know how to get back to the pop up that has the music player update and itunes update bc this is the only place i have seen "tools" to be able to manually update all four files....
***IF i completely uninstall itunes and reinstall will it still have all my songs, photos, apps etc... bc i need to sync my new phone to get all my stuff back

this is a follow up from the profane post earlier....
i have done this twice in two other posts..
here is my problem.. i started off trying to update itunes, it failed twice and said i needed to install manually via tools.
the only place to get to tools is the pop up box that appears when you click check for updates.. if there is an available update then the pop up shows up with the quick time and itunes files to download. so i finally figured that out. i clicked on tools and manual update, four files were saved to a file. Apple mobile device support, another one similar, itunes, and another one i cant remember. I only downloaded the itunes file seeing as though thats all i needed to accomplish in the first place.
so then i restarted my computer bc you need to reboot and then reopen itunes for update to take effect. once i have itunes back open i plugged in my new 5s which i am trying to sync to my computer to get all my stuff back bc i lost my previous phone over the weekend.. once i plugged the phone in an error stating i needed to unistall the apple mobile device support and itunes and then reinstall. well i dont know where those files were originally stored on my computer AND since my itunes was updated, just not the other 3 associated files, when i click check for updates it says its up to date and then pop up containing the quick time and itunes does not pop up thus i cant get back to the tools tab to manually save the 4 files again.
so i was just going to uninstall itunes all together and then i thought well what happens if it erases all my photos apps songs etc... which would defeat the whole purpose in the first place of me trying to sync my new phone to get all my stuff back.
so i literally have no idea what to do at this point.. if you have read this you are probably just as confused as me...

My iTunes won't update, it starts to install then just says it can't. I decided to try uninstall it but it won't even uninstall anymore, there is some type of ERROR going on. I tried to just install iTunes from the website and that won't even work.

Trouble with calculating fields. Can't select (check) fields. Also can't figure out what's wrong with a division field (percent) that I created. Keep getting the pop up that format of the field doesn't allow blah blah blah... Help!

Trouble with calculating fields. Can't select (check) fields. Also can't figure out what's wrong with a division field (percent) that I created. Keep getting the pop up that format of the field doesn't allow blah blah blah... Help!

1. Use the mouse to select the field and then press the space bar.
2. A null string is the same as zero. What is the result for division by zero?

You don't have enough media.

HT1918 After seven ios updates, why is iBooks still the only app that won't synch between iphone & ipad?!?

After seven ios updates, why is iBooks still the only app that won't synch between iphone & ipad?!?

Hi there,
Thanks for the reply. I did think that could be the case but then other books would also show up as apps on phone but not counted as an app. Maybe book apps downloaded from the app store work in this way whereas books bought from the ibooks app show in ibooks and not as apps.
I guess that would make sense, it must be because they are books but downloaded from the app store rather than the book store so they are visible as an app but don't actually get counted as an app.
Would you think that's the case too?
Thanks
Adam

TS1387 this is the pop up that comes up when i plug in my phone "itunes could not connect to this iphone. Could not allocate a resource" what should i do?

The pop up that comes up as soon as i plug my iphone into my mac is 'itunes could not connect to this iphone. could not allocate resource" what should i do?

HOW TO FIX CANNOT ALLOCATE A RESOURCE ERROR!!!
I found a fix that worked for me after failing with all the others:
IF your computer has an old cydia app called Wi-Fi Sync (you'll recognize it on your toolbar as a black silhouette of an iphone that NEVER goes away), then this is probably your main culprit. Simple fix.
1. Goto your hard drive in the finder
2. Goto Library
3. Goto Launch Daemons
4. Throw this in the trash: com.ghughes.wifisync.root.plist
5. Goto Library
6. Goto Application Support
7. Throw this in the trash: Wi-Fi Sync (it's an entire folder).
8. Restart.
9. Thank me.
Peace and Love, Peace and LOVE!

I have tried bit defender, Safari settings (blocking pop-ups) and nothing seems to work. Coud I get some help, please?

You installed the "DownLite" trojan, perhaps under a different name. Remove it as follows.

There are tabs with bookmarks showing up in the tab bar that won't close. Why do they come up and why can't I close them?

I can't close the bookmark tabs that show up automatically at the tab bar. I don't want them to open or show up. When they show up I can't close them and everything in the tab bar gets frozen. So I'm just stuck. Firefox won't even quit when this happens. How can disable these bookmark tabs from showing up. They are a nuisance.
I also need instruction on eliminating bookmarks that came with Firefox. I deleted them, but they showed up again.

Choose Force Quit from the Apple menu, close Safari, and then launch it with the Shift key held down. If that doesn't work, temporarily disconnect the computer from the Internet.
If that message continues to appear, click here and run Adware Medic; the MacKeeper popups may also be produced by adware. You may need to use a different web browser.

How do I turn on and turn off the pop-up that displays the true URL when I hover over the link?

I would like to know how to set Firefox so it displays the true URL of a link when I hover my mouse over that link.

It's been many moons since I've used a Fireberd, since I'm no longer with the phone company, but if memory serves, that can be turned of directly with a fireberd command. You might check the manual for that. If so, then all you need is a simple "send GPIB" command from Labview
