    How do I stop ITunes from loading every song I play into my library from an external hard drive?

    Mac OS X: Double-Clicking a File Opens the Wrong Application - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2291
    -= Changing the application used to open all files of a certain kind (written with reference to OSX 10.4 but may not have changed) =-
    1) In a Finder window highlight a file of the kind you want to change the application to open that kind of file.
    2) While that file is highlighted, select File > Get Info or press command (apple or propeller icon) + i to get a file information window.
    3) In the lower part of the info window there is an "open with" menu with a list of applications.
    4) If your application is already in the box then it is the default application for opening that kind of file and you don't need to do anything more.  Close the get info window.
    5) If the application showing in the menu is not the one with which you wish to open the file then select a new application. If your application does not appear there then select the "other..." and track down the application (usually in the Applications folder at the main level of the computer).
    6) If you wish to change all files of this type to open with this application in future, make sure the "change all" button is selected.
    7) Close the get info window.

  • How can I stop Firefox from loading automatically when I startup my computer?

    A while ago I setup Windows so Outlook and Firefox opened automatically when I log on. Now I want to stop FF from opening automatically. I have gone into the Startup folder and removed the shortcut to FF several times but it keeps coming back. I changed the name of Mozilla Firefox in the Windows Programs Directory to xxMozilla Firefox and that didn't keep it from loading. If necessary, I will remove FF from my computer altogether but I would rather not do that.

    Aaarg! I tried Matt's suggestion of using msconfig, restarted my computer, and it seemed to solve the problem. Today when I turned on the computer it hung up before loading Windows. I had to use the F12 button to get it to load. I did and it did and Firefox did not load.
    Now, this evening, I turned on the computer, the startup procedure was normal, and there's Firefox fired up and ready to go!

  • How do I stop Firefox from opening old tabs/windows after a crash?

    whenever it crashes and i try to reopen the program, it opens all my old tabs and windows. often these are videos which all start playing at once. or worse, it opens the page that made it crash in the first place and crashes again.
    how do i stop this annoying feature?
    if there's no way to stop it, can you recommend a simple browser that doesn't try to think for you?

    hello, enter '''about:config''' into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named '''browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash'''. double-click it and change its value to '''false'''.

    Why is Quick time loading pdf file and how do I stop it .

    I have the same issue with Safari opening Web PDF links in Quicktime.  When I click on a PDF URL the Quicktime logo will display in Safari, then the first page of the PDF will come up, and only the first page will be available, there is no way to scroll to subsequent pages.  I have not found any settings in Safari, Quicktime, or Adobe Reader to turn that off.  How can I get Quicktime to not be the default imbedded reader for PDF in Safari.

  • Firefox "Welcome" tab loads every time since Version 10 upgrade. How do you stop it from loading?

    Ever since I upgraded to Version 10 the Firefox "Welcome" tab loads when I open Firefox along with my home page.

    Check to make sure you didnt set the "Welcome" tab as a homepage.
    *[http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/How%20to%20set%20the%20home%20page How to set the Homepage]
    Select Default as the Homepage, restart Firefox as see if the "Welcome" tab loads still.
    Also note, Firefox changes a setting in its preferences file to determine whether you've seen the "Firefox Updated" tab. If you are having problems with that file then Firefox will be unable to save this information and will show you the "Firefox Updated" tab each time you start it.
    *To correct this, use the steps outlined in the [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Preferences%20are%20not%20saved Preferences are not saved] article.

  • How can I stop URL from loading when I paste it into a page without selecting a text field first?

    I'm using a chat where I often copy links; if I forget to click the text field when copying an URL, it opens, forcing me to go back manually, which is really annoying. Can I disable URL autoopening somehow?

    It's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and themes and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
    If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.
    If the problem does not disappear when all add-ons are disabled, please tell me, so we can work from there. Please have no fear of following my instructions to the line, as all can be easily undone.

  • How can I stop FCPX from loading every project on a drive?

    Every time I connect an external hard drive with FCP projects and events on them, Final Cut reads and loads every project which significantly slows down the program and my MacBook. Are there any settings or plugins/scripts that would give you the option of loading only a specific project and it's events and ignoring the others on the drive?

    Move them out of the Events and/or Projects folder!
    There is an App that will manage it for you, if you like..

  • How do you stop iPhoto from loading every time you dock the iPhone?

    I would like to NOT have iPhoto start up every time I plug in my iPhone. I am sure there must be an easy way to do this. Thanks!

    There are two different topics in this thread, and two separate "sync photo" issues with iPhone.
    1) Syncing photos to iPhone, similar to the process if you had an iPod. This is handled as mentioned above, from within iTunes.
    2) Syncing photos from iPhone, as with any camera. This is handled from within iPhoto, also as mentioned above.
    I just wanted to point out that these are two independent processes, able to be modified separately.
    If you have cleared out the iPhone and/or not taken any more pictures, it will not cause iPhoto to pop up.

  • Stop itunes from downloading old deleted tv shows

  • Stop iTunes from downloading old TV shows.

    How do I stop iTunes from downloading old TV episodes that I have already watched? I have turned off automatic downloads in preferences. However every time I try to download something new, all my old TV shows I have already watched start to download. I then have to manually stop and delete dozens of TV episodes manually. I don't want multiple TV episodes clogging up my hard drive. Once I have watched something and delete it from iTunes, I don't want to download it again. Please help.

    I have this problem OFTEN with past Daily Show episodes. Just this morning, in fact, iTunes tried to download 1300+ (yes, 1300+) episodes of The Daily Show, dating all the way back to 2006.
    When I called iTunes Support on the phone, the completely unhelpful person asked me for the serial number on my computer. I told her that the problem wasn't with my computer, that the problem was with iTunes itself, and she was completely unwilling to help me. I've had this problem before, and an Apple support technician simply went in and cleared my download queue for me (a feature that individual users should have the ability to do) but I can't figure out how to get back to the person who helped me last time, because this receptionist insisted that nobody could help me if I wasn't using an Apple computer.
    This issue is not going away. Apple needs to fix iTunes. Nothing needs fixing on my computer.
