Is there a way to disable the brightness on my keyboard keys?

It's really bad if I accidentally hit my keyboard brightness keys because my monitor must be calibrated very at all times since I was a photographer.  Someone knows how to turn off these keys I don't accidentally hit?

Thank you!

There is a way to disable ALL the F1, F2, etc. keys, but I don't think there's a way to just disable these two keys.

 > System Preferences > keyboard > keyboard (tab) > check "use all F1, F2, keys as standard function keys etc.

Note that this will prevent all Mac controls, associated with the F1, F2, etc. keys. While this check box is selected, you can still use the features such as the brightness and spaces, but you need to hold the function (fn) key while pressing F1...

This will allow to use the Pause/Play, spaces, Launchpad and keys of brightness by pressing fn and then the F1, press F2 etc to the action you want.

Hope this helps

    Is there a way to disable the function where firefox opens a new tab when you scroll a click in the header bar? This feature in conflict with my program of multiple monitors (display fusion) since this program allows you to change your current active window the monitor 1 monitor 2 and vice versa BY clicking the header of BAR SCROLLING (or whatever you call the highest part of your window). With firefox, I can't easily change my active window between monitors because instead, it opens a new tab.

    If the window is maximized, you can then switch this pref to disable the display of the tabs in the title bar:

    • browser.tabs.drawInTitlebar = false

    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.

    Hello.

    Is there a way to disable the timestamp in the file history?

    Original title: file history

    No, you can't turn the timestamp in the file history.  That's how the backup system knows what backups are latest to avoid corruption and file damage.  It is also an inherent requirement of the NTFS file system, which require that all the files have the underlying timestamps.

    I'm not a technical guy either! It is how to configure the self-service score card. It seems unusual, but this is the method of support.

    In fact, it is not as technical as it seems. You will need some technical assistance (e.g., s/n), but only to recover and then download the ldt.

    You will need recover the such appropriate LDT file specified in the file table in the document that I've referenced.
    You can then open it with any text editor (such as wordpad or Notepad).

    Here is an example of the type of text you will see (using for example cost center):

    BEGIN HXC_LAYOUT_COMPONENTS 'XXCU Exception Timecard Layout - cost center'
    OWNER = 'ORACLE '.
    COMPONENT_VALUE = "COSTCENTER.
    REGION_CODE = "HXC_CUI_TIMECARD."
    REGION_CODE_APP_SHORT_NAME = "HXC".
    ATTRIBUTE_CODE = 'HXC_TIMECARD_COST_CENTER '.
    ATTRIBUTE_CODE_APP_SHORT_NAME = "HXC".
    SEQUENCE = "210".
    COMPONENT_DEFINITION = "CHOICE_LIST".
    RENDER_TYPE = 'WEB '.
    PARENT_COMPONENT =
    * "' Exception Timecard Layout - day laid Building blocks for matrix worker scorecard" * "
    LAST_UPDATE_DATE = ' 23/05/2004.

    BEGIN HXC_LAYOUT_COMP_QUALIFIERS 'XXCU Exception Timecard Layout - cost center'
    OWNER = 'ORACLE '.
    QUALIFIER_ATTRIBUTE_CATEGORY = "CHOICE_LIST".
    QUALIFIER_ATTRIBUTE1 = "Custom9VO".
    QUALIFIER_ATTRIBUTE4 = "N".
    QUALIFIER_ATTRIBUTE8 = "DisplayValue".
    QUALIFIER_ATTRIBUTE9 = '#NUMBER value '.
    QUALIFIER_ATTRIBUTE10 =
    * "Oracle.apps.HxC.selfservice.Timecard.Server.Custom9VO" *.
    QUALIFIER_ATTRIBUTE11 = "TIMECARD_BIND_END_DATE" TIMECARD_BIND_END_DATE ".
    QUALIFIER_ATTRIBUTE17 = "OraTableCellText".
    QUALIFIER_ATTRIBUTE20 = "N".
    QUALIFIER_ATTRIBUTE21 = 'Y '.
    QUALIFIER_ATTRIBUTE22 = 'L '.
    QUALIFIER_ATTRIBUTE25 = "FLEX".
    QUALIFIER_ATTRIBUTE26 = "Dummy economic context."
    QUALIFIER_ATTRIBUTE27 = "Attribut3".
    LAST_UPDATE_DATE = ' 23/05/2004.
    END HXC_LAYOUT_COMP_QUALIFIERS

    END HXC_LAYOUT_COMPONENTS

    To delete this article, just comment it by putting "#" (hash space) in front of each line between HXC_LAYOUT_COMPONENTS BEGIN and END HXC_LAYOUT_COMPONENTS

    Then save your file and get the DBA to uplaod again.

    You must make sure that filename ldt so the section at the top of the file with the entry
    BEGIN HXC_LAYOUTS "XXCU TIM EXCEPTION-SCORE CARD" "HXC".
    OWNER = 'ORACLE '.
    DISPLAY_LAYOUT_NAME = "XXCU Tim Exception Layout - time sheet entry Page"

    have a unique name. You will see that my example has 'TIM' in the name of layout and display name.

    Make you the ldt file name unique so that it does not replace the Oracle version seeded and you're doing the DISPLAY_NAME and LAYOUT_NAME usinque because that's what you will see in your list of page layouts in the preferences in OTL. If you do not change the names, you will see duplicates and won't know which is yours!

    It's about as technical as it gets.

    Good luck. I hope that answers the question further.

  • Whenever I get up for a minute, my computer turns off is there a way to disable the functions "sleep" and "hibernate"?

    My computer used to stay... since I work with clients, my computer work is often interrupted. He is turns off if I stop for a moment and it's annoying to keep back on each time. The function 'Start'-j' looked where you shut down your computer and noticed "Sleep" - who says turn to turn off and saves the info... and "Hibernate" - which goes out and saves the info... but I don't remember always those who are there. Is there a way to disable this option, so my computer stays on?

    It is not related to firefox, but I think I can help you:

    1. Click on the stack (if you are connected, there a picture of a plug) in your taskbar (near the clock) windows
    2. Click more power Options
    3. Otherwise, go to control panel-> power options
    4. Click change when the computer sleeps
    5. Adjust the settings so that your computer does not sleep for a long period of time.

  • Is there a way to disable the persistence of application frame?

    First of all, I love the beta release - the combination of the small interface, more instant layer improvements and typographic research make this obvious upgrade for me.

    But with the new awesomeness comes new issues: with CS5, if I single clicked on, say, my office so I had Photoshop (with no open files PSD), the entire application would be bit go further than I can get stuff without having to watch the big old empty shell of the app.

    This is not my experience with CS6. Maybe a beta version problem, or some prefs that I found not yet, or maybe the app is somehow interpret a pref "persist application framework" last I checked somewhere, but can't access (although I can never remember counted something like that). Whatever it is, it seems that I now need to each option-click on the desktop (which is painful, as I do on my other screen), or type the command "Hide Photoshop" to get the app out of my way, so I can do other things (I often switch between multiple applications). So my question: is there a way to make the framework of the non-persistent application?

    Otherwise, great app. I have not been this excited about a Photoshop upgrade over the years.
