How do I stop Quicktime plugin from opening all WAV files?

I have iTunes on my Windows 7 Ultimate computer to support my iPhone. iTunes installs QuickTime, QuickTime installs the QuickTime browser plugin, and the QuickTime browser plugin DOES NOT RESPECT THE WINDOWS FILE EXTENSION ASSOCIATIONS. This causes problems because I DO NOT want QuickTime to open WAV and MP3 files as I have other applications for those file types. So my question is...
How do I tell the QuickTime browser plugin to open file types a, b, and c, but NOT open file types d, e, and f? I can't find the file type association dialog for the QuickTime plugin.

Hi turningtest2,
Actually it is linked content - pages that have links to play sound samples rather than having players built into the page, "How To" videos, etc.
Firefox and Chrome seem to have workarounds, and in playing around with Firefox tonight it looks like using Firefox (or Chrome) will solve a lot of the issues here at home, but at the office I'm limited to IE 9, 64 bit when using a Windows 7 box. Odd as it may seem, I have IE 8, Firefox, Chrome, Safari, and Opera on my office XP Pro box. So, I'm having to "reverse migrate" as I move from a Windows XP Pro box to a Windows 7 box at the office, and switch from using Firefox and Chrome (XP Pro) to using IE 9 (Win 7). Thus, the problems with the QuickTime plugin in 64 bit IE 9 are a real annoyance.
Hmmm, so Quicktime is no longer needed for iTunes. That's interesting. I have iTunes at both home and office and maybe uninstalling Quicktime at the office will solve some of the problems ... except for playing ".mov" files...
I'm considering some registry hacks for the office Windows 7 Ultimate box, but I'll have to get the sysadmin to make any registry changes.
Have you tried any of the registry fixes?

How do I stop new tabs from opening - all I want is one window that I can click back and forth on the page history

I do not want multiple windows or multiple tabs. In older Firefox versions just one window could be set, using the page history to go backwards or forwards. How do you disable new tabs or new windows from automatically opening in firefox 7?

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

That is a bug, so you need to wait until this get fixed.

I don't have any problem attaching just a MS Word file in Mail. My process is pretty simple....with a message open I click the attach icon (paperclip) at the top of the message, then navigate to where the file is located and select it. I make sure I have the cursor at the bottom of the new message below my signature line. FWIW I use MS Word 2011.

How do I stop Quicktime player from auto-launching after I've exported a movie from iMovie 10?

How do I stop Quicktime player from auto-launching after I've exported a movie from iMovie 10?
It's really annoying for Quicktime player to auto-lauch!

It may not be that simple David. They're using a "server" and some of the Apache software may want to launch QuickTime at boot.
This isn't really a QuickTime question. It's a sever question best answered in those Discussion pages.

How do I stop extra tabs from open on start up?

How do I stop extra tabs from open on start up? When I save new tabs the next time I open I have the new saved tabs. On the next opening after that are the same 7 tabs I don't want and didn't save. edit

Make sure that the pages aren't set as multiple home page, see
* [[How to set the home page]] - Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' symbols
See also:
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
If you use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the 'Browsing History' when you close Firefox then restoring tabs from the last session ("Save & Quit" or "Show my windows and tabs from last time") doesn't work.

How do you remove duplicate images from your all images file on your mac desktop

How do you remove duplicate images from your all images file on your mac desktop?

Don't under any circumstances.
All images is not a file. It's not a place. It's a list. Specifically, it's the result of an instruction: List all the images on my machine.
When you delete something from All Images, then you have no idea what you're removing from where - files that are part of word processing docs, interface elements, corrupting your iPhoto Library. There are many perfectly legitimate reasons why you might have what appears to be duplicates but are not.
Rule number One: Never delete anything on your machine whose job you don't understand.

Stopping quicktime player from opening

hi everyone,
Im pretty thick when it comes to this kind of stuff. Im gonna install quicktime pro but how do i stop the factory installed quicktime player from opening when i want to watch movies?

Right click on a movie file and go to 'Get Info...' Twirl down the 'Open With' section and select 'QuickTime Player 7.app' (This is QuickTime Pro). Then click the 'Change All' button.
You will need to do this for every movie file type, ie. .mov, .mp4, .mpg, etc.
Unfortunately this process may not work for everyone. QuickTime X, (the default Quicktime Player.app in Leopard and Snow Leopard), tends to override your player preferences. If after clicking the 'Change All' button it reverts back to QuickTime Player.app, then you will know. You can fix this by installing the Preference Panel RCDefaultApp. http://www.rubicode.com/Software/RCDefaultApp/
You can then use RCDefaultApp, (found in your System Preferences after installation), to change your file type associations.
I think it's pretty ridiculous that Apple tries to force QT X over the Pro version, but it is what it is I suppose and this is one way to fix it.

How can i stop sharepoint designer from opening my site with WEBDAV

I have a second collection in my web application for Project Server
http:\\servername\PWA.
Whenever I try to edit a page using sharepoint designer, it tells me that
The website has been configured to disallow page editing with Sharepoint Designer.
That isnt the reason. Searching on the interweb, It seems that whenever you have a second collection, designer always connects using Webdav and this doesn't support designer.
So ----- Can anyone tell me how to get around this problem without installing PWA as it's own Web Application?
Thanks in advance - Mickeal Davis

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to stop sharepoint designer from opening my site with WEBDAV.
What’s the main reason of the problem that related to Project Site Template this by default set to DisableWebDesignFeatu es in
ONET.XML.
To enable edit Project Site in SharePoint Designer, you need to remove the DisableWebDesignFeatures="wdfopensite" from ONET.xml of the PWA site.
More information:

How do i stop the plugin from showing up and crshin??

how can i stop plugin from showing up while i play my games??

Use VMware Fusion? But seriously, Fusion does what you want. It just puts a mini VM control menu at the top when running full screen (and that's configurable, too), so the main menu bar doesn't appear at all. Which means that it's up to Parallels to handle this. Are you running Parallels 7, which is designed for Lion? If you are and Parallels still doesn't offer something similar, you need to contact Parallels.
