How can I disable my unused applications?

Hello

I just bought a new Droid Mini and of course, it came with a lot of apps that I will not use. I understand that I can not disable them, but is there a way to disable them so that they do not run constantly. It is to undermine my battery life. Thank you

In fact, you can disable most of them. From the app drawer, press and hold each of them you want. A superposition of the home screen appears, and at the top of the screen, if you can uninstall it, this option appears.

If you are unable to uninstall it, you can always pull the high "app info" and opt to turn it off. You can repeat that for every unwanted app.

They'll always take upward of space memory, but not running memory, or if they consume battery.

    This isn't what Mary said.  You get 2 facilities by title.  You should have disabled software on your old machine first, but since you have now 2 methods to disable older facilities.

    My first recommendation was to contact support with your product purchase information and disable them.

    Mary offered another option which is to go ahead and install the software on your new hard drive.   If an error saying: you have exceeded the limit of 2 machine, press the button continue to disable older facilities.  You will then be able to install on you're your new hard drive plus one more.

    Hi mzdbid,

    I understand that you want to change some of the search results you see featured on your iPhone. I know it's important to have your iPhone to work more efficient for you, so I'm happy to provide advice to help with this.

    See the steps on how to change the apps are included in Spotlight Suggestions here:

    Use the search on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch - Apple Support

    Change search settings

    Go to settings > general > Spotlight search.

    From there, you can enable or disable the Suggestions of Siri and choose which applications to include in your search. For example, if you don't want to see the results of the research in your Messages app, you can deselect Messages.

    If you don't want Siri or Spotlight to suggest close places, go to settings > privacy > location Services. Then click on System Services and disable Safari & Suggestions of Spotlight. Find out where you can use the Spotlight Suggestions.

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support, cheers!

  • A new thing "Firefox Search", how can I disable it?

  • How can I disable touch sounds?

    I've recently updated to Android 4.4.2 and now I touch ring ONLY when I type in Firefox version 31.0. Any other apps have touch sounds, and I have disabled system/touch sounds. How can I disable them for Firefox?

    Hi guigs2,

    Thank you for your help. I tried to switch the keyboard preferences several times, including with reboots. No change. I should add that the Tablet is an Asus transformer TF701T so I also confirmed that I had Google touch keyboard as default and not the Asus touchpad.

    Will [topic: support] took me in a "Troubleshooting" page, but saw no reset button. I decided to uninstall and reinstall.

    A very interesting thing that happened at that time here. As soon as I uninstalled Firefox, I started to have touch sounds in ALL my apps. Before uninstalling, I only received them in Firefox. I checked again and the system settings Touch sounds Android has been still on off and Google keyboard was always set by default. So why am I touch sounds?

    I went to re - install Firefox and got a prompt asking if I wanted to use the Asus keyboard or keyboard from Google. I chose Google keyboard (as I always have) and all THE sounds of touch stops immediately. For all applications.

    Not sure if it's an Asus, Android or Firefox glitch. But there you go. Fixed a problem.

    Best,

  • How can I disable the auto restart (following updates) for Windows 7 Home Premium (without messing around w / the register)?

    Hello.  About all of the weeks I have my upload computer files from one day to the next.  It's a 17-hour process, and I don't want the computer off or restarted during this process.  Murphy's law usually results in an update windows & restart related happening whenever I put my computer to download said.  First of all, it is deeply annoying that windows would reboot my computer without asking me (Yes, I realize he asks you, and if you are away for an extended period, he just goes ahead and does it... but really, what the $#! % is the point of asking you if she goes ahead and that anyway when you get him just enough early?)  Wow!  Incredibly retarted the Windows for this.)  But anyway, how can I disable this for Win7 Home Premium?  (As if in the first place is not quite annoying, making it virtually impossible to figure out how to turn it off is like adding insult to injury).  Please NOTE, I've seen some other forum post responses on this site that is: (1) link to an information page on the group policies for system administrators, but nowhere does really explain where and how to access these policies and change them!  (2) has a process that begins with 'gpedit.msc' running, but when I started > box to search for this file, there is no result.  (3) the hacking the registry (seriously?  Please, don't.)  SO, please tell me how to disable the auto restart, step by step, without messing with the registry, for WINDOWS 7 HOME PREMIUM.  Ideally, I'd like to be able to potentially re - activate cela in the future and/or switches back as my usage dictates.  And for the record, it's nut that's not a simple option toggle any, as when my computer or monitor sleeps...  Thank you!!

    Thank you.  I'll do it and change my Windows Update settings.  BUT, FYI, in an act even more incredible, the same night I posted my question here, my computer was said upload, and I was still in place at 03:00 (when Windows is set to d/l and install updates).  I went to the kitchen for a bit and returned to my computer to find a countdown - he downloaded updates and "will re-start in 7 minutes" or so and counting down... I said "AH HA!"  I caught you! "I clicked the button of REPORTER and went to bed smiling that I myself had saved wasting many hours of work.  But when I woke up the next morning... HE HAD DONE IT AGAIN!  This means that it is: (1) downloaded another "critic" (cough) update later in the evening, which seems likely because it took to do this at 03:00 and had already done so... or (2) the REPORTER button defers only during a certain period of time (maybe an hour, or even less, by the look of it) and then do it again anyway.

    This is ridiculous.  As it is not ridiculous to called 9 10 patches 'critical', so critical that an urgent restarting your computer is necessary EVEN IF HE is BUSY WORKING, the substitution of the computer user asks to postpone and reboot anyway is absolutely unacceptable.  How the manufacturers of Windows might think this makes sense, let alone was a good idea?  Reporter should make the computer restarts DO NOT until * I * say he is allowed to do.

    In this case, finish the work of 17 hours, that the computer was in the Middle has been MUCH more critical that whatever is downloaded updated.  NO doubt about it.  I know.  Apparently, my operating system is not smart enough to know.  So to take it upon himself to replace my reporter application is crazy.  And in addition, the operating system MUST be smart enough to understand this - it's really not that difficult - if the computer is a lot of work, something intense, a download that is not finished, a sort of bar of ANY progress on ANY application which is not 100% yet, etc., it should be smart enough to WAIT to reboot anyway.

    Thanks again once, change Windows Update settings so it will download updates but let me choose to install them, since this operating system is so poorly thought.

  • How can I disable norton ghost when starting upwards?

    How can I disable some programs do not automatically run when I switch on the computer? IM on xp

    Hello

    If the application does not have an option to disable loading with Windows you can stop it yourself.

    In Windows XP, click START and use the application RUN.  In the box type "msconfig" (without the quotes) and press ENTER.  A new window should appear, click on the Startup tab and any application here may be prevented from loading by unchecking the appropriate box.

    Once you're done, click the button 'Apply', then 'OK '.  When you then start in Windows, these programs will run no longer.
