Unfortunately, there is only a 50% solution: it allows you to act on all 
hosts in a host group and or all services on a host, but not on multiple 
services that are not on the same host or mutiple randomly selected 
services.

1 To enable or disable notifications or checks of all services on a 
host,

see the corresponding icons in the extinfo CGI (the panel that has the 
complete details about a host or service)

2 To enable or disable notifications or checks of all hosts on all hosts 
in a host group.

2.1 From the top level CGIs (status summary, status overview etc)

2.1.1 select (click) the short name - that in parentheseis [()] - of the 
host group.

This should show a panel like

'...No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the
continent, a part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a
manor of thy friend's or of thine own were. Any man's death diminishes
me, because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know
for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee...'
