How to disable bluetooth?

Hello

I just got a g4-2368 Pavilion, with Windows 8.  I am looking for a way to disable the Bluetooth connection when I don't use, so far without success.

In other portable HP that I used, I had HP connection manager or used HP Wireless Assistant available for this exact task, but the machines Windows XP or 7 is installed. It seems that all applications are available to win 8. Anyway, I installed the wireless Assistant, but it does not work I have the machine, because it doesn't detect any wireless network card.

Y other another way (other than the activation and deactivation of the Device Manager)?

Hey Morgoth,

You can essentially disable the Bluetooth by UNCHECKING the checkbox that allows Bluetooth connections to your computer.

See the document below:

Using Bluetooth (Windows 8) devices

When the box is turned OFF, Bluetooth devices are not allowed to connect to your computer.

    I had lost support for bluetooth switch power switch with one of the recent updates to vista (so I think). Now I have the bluetooth enabled all the time. I tried to reinstall the bluetooth software, productivity Center thinkvantage and customization for windows Mobility Center.

    There is no bluetooth in Windows center mobility switch (although I remember there used one), and I don't have Bluetooth in application 'wireless power' (only wireless lan). Bluetooth works all the time (when bluetooth is activated). Also, I tried to manually turn off the bluetooth radio in the Panel, but the bluetooth remains on.

  • How to disable the SOS on Apple Watch 2 function

    How to disable the SOS on Apple Watch 2 function?

    Hello

    It is not currently possible to completely disable the SOS emergency feature.

    However, to disable "hold to call auto":

    • On your iPhone, in the application of the watch, go to: Watch My > General > emergency SOS - deactivate Hold to call self.
  • How to disable the feature CALL SOS?

    I've just updated to iOS 10 and 3 watch OS, but I can't find how to disable the feature of emergency SOS on my Apple Watch.

    I thought it would be a good feature for me so I turned it on, but my fingers are clumsy, so I struck the wrong cursor when I turned off my watch and accidentally, I called 911. I've disabled "Stick to Auto Call" and deleted all my contacts SOS in general in the application to watch on my iPhone and I restarted the iPhone and the Apple Watch, but emergency SOS still shows on my watch when I want to turn off my watch.

    I think that before I turned emergency SOS, I saw "Power Reserve" under the "Power Off". I read that once you turn Hold for Auto call in the app shows and then turn off, the cursor of SOS emergency will always be displayed when you turn off the watch.

    How can I disable the cursor of emergency SOS when I turn off my Apple Watch? Can I use Reset under general, or désapparier my watch and pair again? I don't want to do that, because it would take a lot of time to get all my settings that I want them to be.

    Hello

    I'm not aware of any option settings to remove the emergency SOS cursor in the menu that appears on pressing them and holding the button.

    If you want Apple to consider adding an option to disable the feature, you can submit a request here:

  • How to disable permanently the spell check in Notes

    How to disable permanently the spell check in Notes?

    Here are my steps:

    1. With the help of Notes in OS X 10.11.5, click Edit/spelling and grammar and then clearly the 2 options "check spelling as you type" and "automatically correct spelling."
    2. Close and re - open Notes.

    What I expected:

    only the two options "check spelling as you type" and "automatically correct spelling" is always disabled when Notes is reopened

    In fact:

    the two options "check spelling as you type" and "automatically correct spelling" is enabled once more

    Spell check in Notes for a reason any seems particularly disruptive and unnecessary. Any way to turn it off permanently?

  • How to disable alerts in shared calendars?

    Hi all

    My question is this: is it possible (and if so, how) to disable alerts on changes in a calendar shared on ios 9?

    Calendar sharing 'A' from mac to iphone to my wife, and whenever I change something in an event it receives an alert on the screen of her phone, with the sound.

    Is there a way to remove the notifications on every single events change?

    Thanks for your help

    Hi bart,.

    I understand that you want to disable specific notifications on the iPhone of your wife? You can certainly take the control whose opinions are given on your iOS device.

    To change notifications for that agenda shared so that an alert is not indicated for each change made to the calendar on your wife's iPhone, go to settings > Notifications > calendar > calendar changes. You can then select the option to "None" so that no alert is displayed on his phone when there is a change to the shared calendar. The this link below will also be you become familiar with the different settings that you can use to adjust your alerts specifically to your liking!

    Use the Notifications on your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    Have a great day.

  • I don't have a message to tell me the image my takes up screen is set to full screen. How to disable the who and the fade slow when he goes to fs?

    In Firefox 42

    When a site like youtube when I make the video fullscreen it just melted slow useless when it does. And then tells me that it is full screen. I know that it is full screen for two reasons. One, I hit the button fullscreen. Two, the video takes up my entire screen. The message point. Use the fade. How can I disable them?

    To disable the fade, you can change these preferences of the topic: config page.

    • full-screen - api .transition - duration.enter: "0 0".
    • full-screen - api .transition - duration.leave: "0 0".

    You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
    You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.

    I do not know how to disable the warning, but it might be possible to hide this message with code to userChrome.css or elegant.
    This message is displayed for security reasons because a malicious script can switch to full screen mode and take over the entire window without noticing you (i.e. show a fake office).

  • How to disable the photos app to compress the video?

    When to use photos app to manage the photo and video (for example, automatically import the iPhone for photos), if I drag a video in the library of photos on the desktop, the application can continue to block, without warning, without answers, I thought that something is wrong and try to kill the App actually found it is because the app is compress the video file. I must say that it is really a lousy design. Why can't slide video original in a folder? I don't like the decommissioned video. In addition, why can't photos give a warning indicating that the application is busy on video processing, but give the user a terrible experience? Could someone tell me how to disable compression of the video? Thank you very much.

    Do not drag all that fate Photos - export (menu, file == > export) and if you want no compression or other changes export only the original unmodified - giving you an exact bit for bit copy of the image you impoerted
