How to turn off Sublime 2 updates notification?

UbuntuText EditorSublimetext

Ubuntu Problem Overview


I've installed Sublime 2 on Ubuntu using a PPA repository and update it via this native Ubuntu mechanism, so it just annoys me to see "A new version is available..." every time I start Sublime. I've found nothing searching for "update" in Sublime configuration file. Where can I disable the notification?

Solution 1 - Ubuntu

There is update_check field in Sublime version 2.0.1 build 2217.

Just go to Preferences -> Settings-User and add there: "update_check": false

Sublime then stops checking for the new version.

enter image description here

Note that at least for some versions this check is deliberately broken during the evaluation period.

Solution 2 - Ubuntu

You can add this entry in your /etc/hosts file:

127.0.0.1       www.sublimetext.com

This will stop Sublime Text from accessing the update URL (http://www.sublimetext.com/updates/2/stable/updatecheck).

Solution 3 - Ubuntu

put this and it will work:

{
	"color_scheme": "Packages/Color Scheme - Default/Monokai.tmTheme",
	"font_size": 13.0,
	"update_check": false,
	"ignored_packages":
	[
		"Vintage"
	]
}

Note that at least for some versions this check is deliberately broken during evaluation period.

Solution 4 - Ubuntu

Use "apt-get install sublime-text" to update it. Preferences didn't help me.

Solution 5 - Ubuntu

Add the following to '/etc/hosts' which also applies to windows 'C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc' file

    # This will block sublime text updates
    127.0.0.1 sublimetext.com
    127.0.0.1 www.sublimetext.com

Solution 6 - Ubuntu

Go to preferences -> setting user And, Write the code :

> "update_check":false,

Solution 7 - Ubuntu

This is a link to answer by Site Admin of Sublime Forum it seems like you have Dev version. http://www.sublimetext.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1776#p8152

This is quote from description of PPA repository: https://launchpad.net/~webupd8team/+archive/sublime-text-2

> Sublime Text 2 packages - the .deb will automatically download the > latest build from www.sublimetext.com/dev

You should install sublime from source.

Solution 8 - Ubuntu

I had the same issue, so I resorted to actually keeping mine updated (I update via the terminal with apt-get, but you're of course welcome to do it anyway you like, including the update manager). I'm not suggesting you update, but I do want to reassure you that the updates haven't created any trouble for me. No new problems after updating.

Solution 9 - Ubuntu

This is the correct format for the problem of a version check in Sublime Text 3

{
	"color_scheme": "Packages/Color Scheme - Default/Monokai.tmTheme", "update_check": false
}

Note that at least for some versions this check is deliberately broken during evaluation period.

i disabled update popup by patching executable file with olly but it's only for win users. maybe you can do the same on ubuntu using different debugger tool, search for string "A new version is available...". The working version for win users: http://www22.zippyshare.com/v/51437901/file.html

Solution 11 - Ubuntu

Put These codes in sublime text editor as it is....

 {
 // Sets the colors used within the text area
"color_scheme": "Packages/Color Scheme - Default/Monokai.tmTheme",

"font_size": 11,
//sublime update check disable
"update_check": false,

"word_wrap": "true",


}

Solution 12 - Ubuntu

Just go to sublime and here go to Preferences -> Settings-User and add there: "update_check": false as given below

{ "font_size": 12, "update_check": false }
