Turn off reminders for an account but not calendar events
I sync my work calendar and email on my personal Mac, but I do not want to see my long list of tasks and reminders. I can't discover how to achieve that. When I go into the "Mail, Contacts & Calendars" setting panel, the two are lumped as "Calendars & Reminders".
Anybody know how to do this?
Is the Firefox profile folder included in this image and restored on each start?
If you restore a profile that has the default update settings then this can happen.
If you do not keep changes after a restart or otherwise have problems with preferences, see:

I turned on my icloud account but suddenly some of my contacts disappeared ... I tried to turn off and delete icloud account but still some of my numbers are unreachable ... Help pls
Hi Prince,
OK, so you did turn on PhotoStream on your device. On iCloud.com there is no setting for PhotoStream - it is not needed. PhotoStream only get "turned on" on a device or a computer (in the computer settings - not on the website).
So, once it is turned on, you take a picture, and it may take a few minutes before you see it in the PhotoStream on your phone. If you take a couple of pics and they don't show up, say within a half an hour, then you might want to do a reset on your phone (press the Home and Power buttons at the same time, and hold them down until the silver Apple appears - you won't lose anything by doing this....) Once it comes back up, you could try a couple more pics, or check the PhotoStream to see if the ones you took previously are there.
Not sure about the option at the bottom of the Photo App - I think it is a permanent item (like Places - I don't use Places for my photos, but it is there all the same.
I agree with you that it is a great backup for your photos - especially if you don't regularly sync to a computer. PhotoStream will keep up to 1000 of your photos, so it's good insurance against losing them. Just as a major user of the camera on my iPhone, I would recommend that you do back up to your computer as well. Videos are not saved in PhotoStream, so those would be lost if anything ever happened to your phone and you had not backed up to a computer....
But don't give up on PhotoStream either - it's not only great for backing up those last 1000 photos, it is also great for sharing between devices (say, if you have an iPad).
So, give it another try, and if you have any questions, post back!

Turning off reminders for iCal locations
Good Morning,
I wanted to know if anyone could tell me how to turn off the reminders for the locations in Lion Servers iCal server. It is a bit annoying that the location is sending reminders and the only way to stop them is to go event by event and change the setting on it. We are already getting reminders for the attendee and there is no need for the ones from the actual location. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Mystic Rose @}-----|---Hi Chris,
This has been asked for before, but there are no current plans to change the default of "18 hours" or to allow a means to modify the value.
As a workaround, you can use code in a macro, script, COM Add-in, etc. to reset the Reminder time to something more adequate to your needs.
DISCLAIMER: The code is provided only as a courtesy to our customers. It is not supported in any way by Microsoft.
Dim oApp As Outlook.Application
Dim calFolder As Outlook.Folder
Dim items As Outlook.items
Dim appt As Outlook.AppointmentItem
Dim i As Integer
Set oApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set calFolder = oApp.Session.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderCalendar)
Set items = calFolder.items
For i = items.Count To 1 Step -1
If items.Item(i).Class = Outlook.olAppointment Then
Set appt = items.Item(i)
If appt.AllDayEvent = True Then
If appt.ReminderMinutesBeforeStart = 1080 Then '1080 = 18 hours X 60 minutes
appt.ReminderMinutesBeforeStart = 60 '60 minutes
appt.Save
End If
End If
End If
Set items = Nothing
Set calFolder = Nothing
Set appt = Nothing
Set oApp = Nothing
I have emailed the Outlook Feature Requests alias on this. This is monitored directly by the
Outlook Product team. Additionally, you can call in and open a support incident regarding this issue and we can investigate this further.
Hope that helps!

Printer Prints fine for Admin Account, but not for "Regular" User Account.
Printer works perfectly when signed on as Administrator, but not when we use non-admin login. I can see the printer - it says ready, but it won't print.. although job does not sit in printer queue.
I did a full driver install FROM the local account, using "Run as" - but it can't find the printer. I did a Full Driver Install from the Admin account, with no change to the non- admin account. Any help would be most appreciated.
Thanks .Hi @maggie-o,
I understand you can print when printing form an admin account, but otherwise can not. I would be happy to help you with this.
If you are running Norton Antivirus, go into the Control Panel and click on Printers & Faxes, then right click on the Printer and select Properties. In the Properties, click on the Advanced tab., and set it to Print Direct to Printer instead of using the Print Spooler. I think there is something in Norton that prevents the Limited Users account from accessing the Print Spooler.
If the issue persists, please take a look at the following articles: Security permissions for printing, & To set or remove permissions for a printer.
I hope this helps.

Turn off push for Exchange account?
I don't want to use push for my work Exchange account. In Settings, when looking at "Mail Folders to Push" for that account, I can't uncheck "Inbox". However, I have turned off push in the "Fetch New Data" global setting. Which one takes precedence? Is push on or off for this account?
If you go to settings, mail, fetch new data, advanced, and select your exchange account, you should be able to turn fetch settings to manual for that account. If you have pushed turned off under fetch new data, then no accounts should get push mail.

Yahoo login page incorrect for sub accounts but not admin account.
Using: Windows Vista OS and Mozilla Firefox 4.0.1.
BT Yahoo has a login page that allows the user to create a seal on the login page to help identify a valid website.
I am th main account/admin and I have no issues; everything looks good and correct.
My husband has a sub account, but there is no seal showing nor is there a clickable facility to create a seal.
This occured immediately after upgrading to Firefox 4 and unstalling and reinstalling did nothing. Had no issues prior to upgrade.
Appreciate any helpful suggestions.Any ideas regarding the weirdness of why my computer with a main account and a sub account with only one version of Firefox 4.0.1 manages to view the login page of Yahoo completely differently?

How do you turn off the displayed start time in individual calendar events? (Mavericks)
In iCal there was a preference option. It would seem that has gone away in Mavericks Calendar. Any work-arounds?
You could make them all day events, which will display as a banner.

How can i delete my icloud account but not the password to turn off the find my phone
how can i delete my icloud account but not the password to turn off the find my phone setting
Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID. If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.) Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iPad and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID). Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless using iCloud Photo Library). When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out and choose Delete from My iPad when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device). -
'm sure your'e going to tell me I just need a new phone but maybe there is hope for my iphone 4. It will not charge past 66% (it's not the charger), it turns off when unplugged, and it will not even let me turn my wi fi to the on possition. Help!
Hi there 8472kck!
I have some information for you that can help you troubleshoot this issue a little further. That information can be found right here:
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 15 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
and that information comes from this article:

How do I turn off reminders in one MS Outlook Calendar, but not the other?
I have my calendar and I also have a calendar (lets call it Shared Calendar) in which I copied all of my team's calendars into. I want to keep the Reminder alert on my calendar and turn off the Reminder alerts on the Shared Calendar. How can I do
this?Hi,
Yes , like Rajitha said , the reminder comes from organizer. Unless the organizer uncheck Reminder in OWA or Outlook (File—Calendar—uncheck Default Reminder/change the reminder value to None
directly when create an meeting) when we arrange the meeting.
But if we do like this, all the user who be invited will lost the reminder.
We can dismiss the reminder, or single click an meeting in Calendar and then change the reminder value to “None” for single meeting
as workaround.

How do I turn off notifications for Software Updates?
In the 'Notifications' section of the 'System Preferences' app, there is no tab for managing the notifications of System Updates nor App Store.
Hey--- I like auto-checking for updates, and hey--- I like auto-downloading them in the background.
BUT I do not like being notified of updates in the middle of working! Especially when it's iTunes updates. Grrrr.
Any chance this is easy and I just missed it?

Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at

How can I turn off imessage for just one of my contacts? Me and my husband just upgraded (both had iphone 4), I got the iphone 5s and he got he note 3. All my text to him automatically send as a imessage. Ive tried to delete his contact and then went back in and reentered it but that doesnt work.
Have your husband text the word "stop" to 48369. This should take his number out of the iMessage system.
Go into your settings under messaging and make sure the box to send as an SMS if iMessage is unavailable is checked.
Hopefully this will get your messages sending/receiving to each other. -
I was using my iPhone got a text opened in and all my contact names had gone went into my contact and it had deleted them all . I turned my phone on and off and 100 came back but not most off them what do I do ?
I suggest you immediately make a backup of your data. You don't know if or when the computer will show some symptoms from the drop. You may want to, for piece of mind, take the computer to an authorised service center for assessment. No one here can assess any internal damage you may have done.

Why does GarageBand audio work for guest user but not my account?
Hello, I have a 15-inch MacBook Pro (2.2 GHz Intel Core i7, 4GB 1333 MHz DDR3) from late 2011 that I bought brand new in 2012. I'm running OS X Mavericks 10.9.4 and my MacBook has 500 GB of storage.
About a month or two ago I tried to download the new GarageBand (10.0.2) but I had trouble completing the loops download. The download would stop halfway through because of a network error. So last week I decided to try to download it again, and I was able to do so after reading some discussions about the issue. I successfully completed the download in safety mode and then I restarted my MacBook. At this point I was able to open GarageBand 10.0.2 and create a new project. Unfortunately, there was no audio coming through the output and sound bar for the various audio components in GarageBand. I had no audio when previewing the loops or playing it back in an audio track. I didn't really test anything else out because I figured I needed to fix this problem first. I have read many discussion boards about audio problems with GarageBand. I have already made sure everything is set properly in the GarageBand preferences and the audio preferences in system preferences. I've tried restarting GarageBand and restarting the computer.
This evening I found a discussion from the username icewhatice and they seemed to have had my exact problem. I'm not sure that I found the answer on this discussion though. For reference, this is what icewhatice posted: "I have no audio coming from Garageband 10.0.2. Downloaded it on Saturday and have spent the last two days trying to figure out why it won't work. I'm using a macbook pro with an Alesis QX49. GB registers keyboard when I plug it in but no sound whatsoever, not even from the onscreen keyboard. It seems to read the keyboard as if I play a C chord, it appears in the display. I've done all the obvious stuff like check preferences, restart, I've deleted and downloaded new GB several times and always with same result. Actually, it took me about four attempts to download it in the first place as I was getting an internet connection error message right at the end of the download, and I see others have had that problem. Managed to solve that by downloading in safe mode but now the no sound thing is driving me absolutely crazy because I can't play my keyboard!!!!! Also, worth noting that there is no audio level being read anywhere, I believe in the new version this appears in the volume control at the top. I've also looked into it potentially being a problem with my keyboard and it possibly needing an update but can't find any difinitive answer for that anywhere. I've stopped looking into that because the on screen keyboard doesn't even work - if that worked then I would know at least GB works and it's something to do with the keyboard. So, I am at a complete loss. If anyone has any ideas about why this is happening or what I could do to solve then I would be very grateful."
After reading this, I realized that I am unable to create new tracks, and I realized that I have the same problems with old projects saved from the last version of GarageBand I had. I have not tried to download GarageBand again since it did not work for icewhatice. léonie ended this post by saying: "Something is certainly wrong - either the current project, some settings in your user account, or the downloaded GarageBand version. Or incompatible software may be interfering. If a new project does not work, try to test by logging into a different user account, for example the "Guest User" account. Create a new project using this account. Does GarageBand work better from this account? Then we will need to troubleshoot your preferences."
I have tried this and started a new GarageBand project in the "Guest User" account. GarageBand was working fine in the "Guest User" account and all of the audio was working properly. Does anyone know how I should troubleshoot my preferences?If an application is working in a different account, but not in your regular account,try t find out, what you configured differently in your own account, for example start-up items or preference panes you are using, applications and other helper tools, that are only installed for your regular account. As a first guess, remove GarageBands preference files from the user library in your Home folder.
But you will have to reset all settings you did in the GarageBand preferences dialog. And GarageBand will not remember the last project. You'll have to find the file manually.
Remove these files from your User Library to a folder on your Desktop:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.garageband10/
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.garageband.plist
~/Library/Caches/garageband
Quit GarageBand, then remove the files to a folder on the Desktop and restart the computer, before trying again to open GarageBand.
You user library may still be hidden, as is the default in Mavericks: To open your hidden user library:
Select the "Home" folder icon (the little house) in the Finder's sidebar and press the key combination ⌘J to open the "view options".
Enable "Show Library Folder".
Then open the Home folder and open the Library folder inside and navigate to the Preferences, Caches, or Containers folder. Remove these folders completely - don't leave anything inside: ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.garageband10/,
~/Library/Caches/garageband .
