Turn off window animation

Firefox animates tab and window creations. For example, on OS X, a new window is animated to grow from the center of the screen.
Tab animation can be turned off by setting the "browser.tabs.animate" property to false. How can I do the same for windows?
Thanks!
My setup: OS X 10.9.2 with Firefox 28

Thanks, you are right! I used the "secrets" app to disable the opening animation, now I'm happy :). Great answer.

  • How to turn off window animations?

    How do you turn off the window animations in Mountain Lion. It feels slow and I can't start typing or deleting things until the window is finished animated. For example when in adobe light room, when I hit the delete key to delete a photo I then have to wait until the animation stops before comfirming the delete. In Snow Leopard it was seamless, much faster and it kept track of what I had typed even if the window was not up yet. Thanks for any help

  • Lightroom Developer turn off Windows 8.1 itself - Developer sammuttaa koneen

    Lightroom Developer turn off Windows 8.1 itself
    At first, I downloaded the pictures; Import pictures work properly and I can see the downloaded image on my desktop.  Next, I press the Developer button in and the PC computer restart/shutdown!!!
    Operating system is Windows 8.1 / 64 bit, RAM 16  GB, nVidia - Graphics Adapter WDDM1.1, Graphics Adapter WDDM1.2, Graphics Adapter WDDM1.3, with  NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 card. Lightroom is installed SSD-drive (C:\) and Lightroom_Catalog is HDD drive D:\Lightroom. All my images are d:\pictures\..  folders or subfolders. What's the matter - what should I do?

    Lightroom Developer sammuttaa koneen
    Kuvat onnistuu ladata työpöydälle moitteetta. Kun painan ladatun kuvan kohdalla Developer-painiketta, koko Windows kaatuu/käynnistyy uudestaan. Muistia pitäisi olla riittävästi. Mitä tehdä, missä vika?

    Hmm, not sure I completely understand now. What exactly simultaneously should mean in this context? The thing is that it seems there's no chance in getting the connection to work when I first turn on the client on my Windows computer. The other way (starting on my Linux computer) it works just fine, and I am able to connect from my Windows to my Linux anytime.
    Also I'm not sure that this is the problem, cause it seems that same problem apply to connection to other computers as well (however this impression is based on a testing with just a very few tries, so I'll try to test it more soon).
    Thanks for the explaining anyway!

  • Turn off transition animations?

    Is there a way to turn off transition animations? Specifically for Preview!
    The way Preview goes into fullscreen is super distracting and disorienting. (your entire desktop slides away while preview slides into the center moving in the opposite direction) The main problem for me is that it always lags and freezes midway through the transition, which convinces me that the transitions cause problems.
    I'd like to get rid of all transitions, but mainly preview.

    Try hitting Escape or just go to View –> Exit Full Screen. Don't think there's any solution for all programs, you probably have to do it for every individual program that cause the freezing.

  • Turn off window shade effect in Preview

    When multiple JPG files are opened together in Preview, I can "flip" from one image to the next with the arrow keys or page up/down keys. But in Lion this "flip" is literally an animated window shade flipping effect. I find it distracting, and now it's actually intrusive because I want to quickly compare to very similar images by flipping back and forth repeatedly.
    I cannot find a preference to turn off this "window shade" effect.
    Any help?

    You can't turn it off the Ken Burns effect, but if you set the same start and end positions for zoom and pan then it won't appear to do anything.
    5.0 seconds seems to be the default display time for each picture. I can't find an option to change that anywhere.

  • Raid building tip - Turn off Windows "Automatic update"

    If you are running Windows and are in the software configuration setup stage of  creating your raid, make sure you have windows update NOT set to automatic.
    Otherwise during your long raid building stage (in my case it took almost an entire day when I configured my raid back in June) Windows could download an update and automatically install it and keep warning you that it will reboot in "so many " minutes unless you tell it to delay rebooting.  As you know, it will keep bugging your that it about to reboot over and over again.
    Fortunately I have automatic updates turned OFF on my editing machine so I have no surprise rebooting.
    Since automatic update can be complety silent, you might go to bed expecting to see your raid finished in the morning, only to be surprised to find that your computer rebooted sometime during the night -- and  your raid not completed.
    Rowby

    Raid rebuilding will continue after a reboot. Restarting the system will not stop a rebuild from continuing.

  • Turn off Unnecessary Animations iOS7

    My god it takes me so long to navagate through my phone now.  Does anyone know of a way to turn off these fluffy animations???  I just want my phone to unlock, I don't care about watching the tiles fly in.  In addition is there anyway to change the folders back, what use is a folder if i have to wait for it to load through an animation and then scroll through pages of tiles.  Frustrated!

    Finally put in 7.0.3 weeks after most of the rest of you had this discussion.
    I swear, like a complete goon, I sat here for 10 minutes trying to swipe the icons for the apps, upward. Finally dawned on me to swipe the 'screen shot' of the app upward.
    As I just posted on Facebook, I wonder how my 2012 Hyundai Elantra is going to get along with my iPhone 4S now that I've updated the OS. I'm guessing little or no difference, but that car is pretty stupid in doing some of the clever things it does.

  • Turn off Windows Native look?

    I not a huge fan of the windows native look, and I want it to look close to the mac version, like the old Safari. Can I turn off the windows native look?

    Hi guys!
    I thought that I was the only one "crazy" willing to see the native Mac appearance for Safari. To be frank, I partly understand Apple. They want Windows users to use Safari and feel good on Windows. But what about those of us who love Mac and everything connected to it?
    I am a fan of Mac starting from my first job at 1993 where I first saw Macintosh. Since than I admire it. Unfortunately it is too expensive for me to buy one for my home use. But I am used to using Safari and iTunes on my home PC since these products appeared on the Windows platform. I know that I will become a happy Mac owner once in a while. Meanwhile, I hope that guys from Apple read these discussion lists and at least seriously think of providing us with the ability to choose how Safari looks like. However, I believe using fonts and gray color for toolbar is not all. Have you seen the ugly small dialog box that appears when you try to add a new bookmark? And what about the "amazing" Windows scroll bar that appears if the list of bookmarks is too long? I love those dialog box sliding from the top of the window with the blue blinking default button and Apple style pop-up menu. This is how native Apple products look like and what all of us like.
    I hope this was just like an experiment. Believe me, Safari with native Windows look is ugly. I was really disappointed with the appearance of version 4 when it was released. Having worked in a software industry and knowing Apple Human Interface guidelines, I just could not believe Apple released a product with such an awful appearance. Hope Apple will hear us.

  • Error when turning off Windows XP

    Hi
    I from chile, I don't speak much English but I will attempt
    when I turn off the PC he appears me the following error:
    DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
    STOP: 0x000000D1 (0x00000048, 0x0000000A, 0x00000001, 0xF9F26D9C)
    CX88AUD.SYS - ADDRESS F9F26D9C BASE AT F9F26000, DATE STAMP 3DDD9283
    I already downloaded the it finishes version of the driver, but it doesn't pass anything  
    also the operating system one this updated
    please help.
    thank you

    I posted about this a long time ago. If you use the search engine here (provided it works currently) you'll see what I did.
    As mentioned, it's an IRQ issue. This card and it's drivers, do not like IRQ sharing in some configurations. Some share without problems, and other configurations simply wont tolerate it.

  • Mac Mail - How to turn off the animated "boxes"

    Best place to put this question hopefully ? As they seem to have gotten rid of the dedicated "Mail" forum here.
    In mail, how do you turn off them outlines/boxes that magically appear around a whole paragraph or number, etc.. when your mouse gets close ?
    Its so annoying, and used to not do this. I am sure some people find this cute, useful and cool. I find it a nuisance since it messes me up when trying to copy and paste text here and there and structurally manipulate emails. My workflow just finds it "in the way" all the time and I never actually use what its purpose is. So I was hoping there was a way to turn it off so it doesn't do that.

    Well you can always select 'plain text' from the format menu (or button in toolbar if installed) but of course you will lose formatting for the whole document.

  • T61 Wireless Repeatedly Turns Off Windows Control

    Upgraded firmware in my wireless router, and now my T61 can't connect wirelessly.
    Wireless Network Connection is properly identified, Signal Strength is Excellent, speed is 54 Mbps. Status is Limited or no connectivity.
    Something keeps turning off my Wireless Zero Configuration Service. EIf I start it manually, and check off "Use Windoes to configure my wireless network setting,", I get wireless access back. But those actions get reversed when I reboot the computer.
    What can be causing this?
    In case it's relevant, the Lenovo PC Doctor 5 wireless troubleshooting test fails on the TCP/IP Network Connection Test, saying "Cannot Run". That happens even if I've gotten my wireless connection working.

    Hello,
    Have you tried upgrading the ThinkPad T61's wireless drivers as well?  If so, did that make any difference?

  • How can I turn off the animated download arrow (on top-right of screen) in FF 20.0.1?

    The new animated download arrow is extremely distracting & quite annoying (and I know I'm definately not the only one who thinks so). If there is no option to turn it off, I really hope you include that feature in the next update.

    Hi Landstander, just to make it clear to all readers, setting browser.download.useToolkitUI to True switches from the new history-integrated downloads window back to the old separate-download-manager window.
