I totally disable updates, so I stop doing a gazillion of pop-ups on an update, I don't want?

I am very happy with the version of Thunderbird that I use.

How can I totally disable updates, so I get a gazillion of pop-ups on an update, I don't want to stop me?

Tools > Options > advanced > Update tab

This is where the settings are about the updates.
There are three options:
1 auto check and install updates
2 auto check but ask me if I want to install
3. do not check

Looks like the second option is selected, it's check and asking with a command prompt. I also use this becaue I want to keep updated with corrections of bugs and security issues, but I want to update when I say and not when I'm in the middle of something important.

Thunderbird update will contain updates of security, bug fixes etc.
You should be aware that selection update may affect your security risk.

    When I changed my mind on a site that Firefox has already begun to look for, how to stop the process?

    Firefox 4 and later versions use a combined Stop/Reload/Go button that is placed at the right end of the address bar. During the process of loading page it shows as a stop button and once the charging button is replaced by a reload button. If you type in the address bar this button would then become a button go. If Firefox takes on a site and you want more, you can press the Stop button and then the load should stop.

  • Disabling update the configuration file without stopping the VI

    I would like to perform a function that when the new modules are added in the existing system of the public Service or hot swapping modules autour, the VI can update its configuration file. I don't want the VI to stop we will collect data 24/7.

    I use cFP2220 and two or three modules of different types. I have my work VI and it is fairly straightforward FP read.vi in a time loop. All data are stored in the database using the Labview database tool. My screws are hosted on the local PC, not on the controller. I'm using Labview 8.6.

    I guess I have to get the file configuration (iak), whenever new modules are added, the iak file can be changed (without MAX aperture). In any case, I would have the flexibility to run the VI continuous. I know there is a similar code here: http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/3221and they get the configuration file in the ini file. But I don't know how it's done as I can save only the configuration file as a file iak for FP system.

    Another potential problem associated with that, I guess, is the database format. For now, I use a three column structure, i.e., DateStamp, value and ChannelID. In this case, if I want to add/remove/swap channels, I can just change the ID of the corresponding channel. What happens if I have a horizontal arrangement of the database, namely 10 columns corresponding to 10 sensors, would he be in trouble if I change channels modules?

    Thank you very much.

    There is a way to change the module and programmatically updated the IAK file without stopping the VI.  You will need to change the FP read.vi front right by with the constant e/s FieldPoint.  You will need to use the Open FP, FP create Tag, read FP, and close to the public Service.  The trick to this is that you must pre-create files IAK in MAX first.  The way to do is to set up your cart in a configuration and then find devices to MAX.  Then save the iak.  Then reorganize your bottom of basket to the next setting would have desired, then have MAX find devices and who save in a file different iak.  You will need to do this for each configuration you have.  Then, you need to place the code below when you want to Ministry the configuration file.  I have also included a screenshot of MAX that you can see what the strings are correlated with.

  • 9.2 iOS disable update reminder

    The automatic update that was introduced with iOS 8 was trouble for many users. There are many discussions about this on the forums and so far the only solution seems to block a certain address in the firmware of your router to prevent the download of this firmware.

    This solution doesn't really work for me, because I charge my phone in different places with different networks Wi - Fi. No matter how many times I remove the update, it downloads always again. Of course, to implement a function that stops this behavior is apparently unintentional. What a smart software which downloads a new file bit matter how many times you remove.

    There has been some improvements on the part of apple, reducing the file size of the OTA updates is a step forward. However, with iOS 9, they introduced a function much more disturbing.

    iOS wonder every night if I want to install the update during the night, of course the reasonable options are missing again as remind me never. I can only choose the opportunity to remind me later. It's embarrassing because it becomes really annoying interrogated every night.

    I can understand that it is a good idea for the inexperienced user to be informed of the updates, but there should be a way to disable simply with. They can include a warning, then it should be good. I don't understand why apple is forcing me to update my phone.

    There could be a question as to why I don't want to update my phone. There are new bugs introduced in each version of the software, I used to keep a stable version of each major version of iOS (... 7.x, 8.x, 9.x). Stable in this case means that everything works I use everyday without fail. Because I can't go back to an older version of iOS, I don't want to take the risk of a bug that will not be fixed until a new version is available.

    I'd appreciate advice to solve this problem, but I'm afraid that there is not a fix (probably never will be).

    Apple does not monitor this forum and they will not read your message here. I suggest that you post your message, which includes some valid points here:

    Apple didn't respond to you directly but they will read your message. If enough people share your concerns, Apple might do something. They did in the past, with the original "do not disturb" implementation

  • How can I get windows update to stop suggesting updates, I know that I don't want.

    I have windows update set to alert me when there are updates available, but let me choose who is accepted. That's how I like it, and I don't want to change this setting. However, I don't want to know if there's a way to deny successfully an update, so that I'm not yet on this subject whenever I start my computer. It's a gene. I want to just delete some of the list. I don't want to stop doing alerts on updates that I can accept. I'm on vista Home premium. Thank you.

    Understanding Windows Update and Extras in Windows Vista

    Read the tutorial above on how to change the way you receive updates.

    Vista offers four different methods for how Windows Update updates your computer. Below, we explain each method and when this is the recommended setting.

    Install updates automatically (recommended) - if you select this option, then all the critical updates will be automatically downloaded and installed on your computer. These updates will install at the time, you specify the fields to install new updates. This is the recommended option for the majority of people because it ensures that you have all the critical updates installed automatically on your computer.

    Download updates but let me choose whether to install them - if you select this option, Vista will download the updates on your computer, but not install them automatically. If you want to install updates, then you must install them manually. You should only select this option if you have a reason to not install updates automatically. Only advanced users should use this option.

    Check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install them - if you select this option, you'll be alerted when there are new updates available for download and install. You can then choose to download and install the updates that you want. This option should really be reserved for people who know exactly which updates they need, or those who have little access to the Internet.

    Never search for updates (not recommended) - if you select this option, Vista never automatically checks updates. This option should never be selected as it puts your computer are likely to be affected, infected or hacked

    See you soon. Mick Murphy - Microsoft partner
