HOW DO YOU STOP THE ANNOYING SOUND THAT HAPPENS EVERY TIME YOU OPEN A NEW WEBPAGE?

Every time I open a new page with Firefox I get an annoying click sound. I have gone into sounds> program events>clicked on none for Start and Stop Navigation but the sound continues. Operating System used Windows XP.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Regards,
David Parker

hello, can you try to replicate this behaviour when you launch firefox in safe mode once? if not, then an addon (like noscript or autofill) is causing this - you'll have to change that in the extension's preferences...

  • How do I stop the side toolbar from appearing every time I open a pdf in Acrobat DC?

    Right side tool bar is annoying in Acrobat DC . How can this be fixed?

    Hi, VP JonRerera.
    1. This is a very ugly design -- I understand Adobe wants users to pay money for those functions, but make it occupy users' precious screen space by default is a very awkward way. 
    2. Acrobat DC does not really "remember" the last state!! Every time, when we open a pdf file, the tool pane will be on the right. You are wrong with your product !
    3. As an computer software engineer, I do not think fixing this one takes ~3 months. It only need to switch the default mode, unless Adobe is unwilling to do it.
    4. People have figured out how to solve the problem (smarter than Adobe engineer??)
    Solution by tmmcentyre
    Go to the install directory, i.e." C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat Reader DC\Reader\AcroApp\ENU". Create a new subfolder (I used "Disabled"). Move 3 files from the "ENU" folder into the new "Disabled" folder: AppCenter_R.aapp & Home.aapp & Viewer.aapp. Open a PDF and no more Tool Pane!  I originally moved just the "Viewer" file but if you clicked on "Home" or "Tools" on the toolbar you couldn't go back to the "Document." Moving all 3 files takes care of that issue. Like a lot of people I don't and won't ever use any of the tools. I just want a reader. Let me know if this works for you.
    The new "right hand toolbar" in Acrobat DC is always on by default, proving instant access to frequently used tools. That said, we're definitely hearing a # of customers that want Acrobat DC to "remember" the last state. So if you close it, it'll remain closed when you open it next.   Looking to have a fix in place in next ~3 months here.

  • How can I stop the download dialog from appearing every time I open Firefox 5.o latest version?

    Ever since I downloaded Firefox 5.0 the other day I get the download dialog every time I start Firefox 5.0.1. I told the download dialog to save Firefox 5.0.1 when I downloaded it. If I now say yes to the dialog it will download and save a new copy of the program like 5.0.1 (1). If I say cancel on the dialog I keep getting the dialog every time I start Firefox 5.0.1.

    I have heard that Norton released an update patch for Firefox 5.0 on Tuesday 06-21 when Firefox 5.0 was released. ''(versus taking their normal six to eight weeks)'' Some Norton users have reported that the toolbar may not work if the Norton patch was installed before Firefox 5.0, instead if after Firefox 5.0 was already installed.

  • How do I stop the pop-ups that happen every 5 minutes since I updated firefox P.S. firefox is the one that they come from

    normally the firefox browser stops all pop-ups because of the add blocker I have but lately videos and even a new window will pop-up and It will usually play or advertise so I installed another add blocker and they still get thru so the only way they can get thru is ether they are well programed adds or firefox can't block them a/o supports these pop-ups themselves some info would be nice

    Hi Hadosan
    Please find an article on pop-blocker in the link below.

    There is a section on pop-up not being block, try it and hope it solve your problem.

  • How do I get rid of the annoying freezing that happens EVERY time I link my computer to Apple tv?

    Everytime I try to watch a movie from the internet on Apple TV I get a frozen screen.  This is not what was advertised.  Netflix runs fine.  Itunes movies have to be sent via 'the cloud' as i tunes won't work directly either.  Basically it seems Apple tv is an expensive paperweight.

  • How do I stop the annoying sound alerts when opening up a new production?

    I'm sure I'm not the only one going through this so I thought I'd ask. I'm running FCSver and whenever I open up a new production or asset, I get this annoying "alert" sound effect (the Sosumi under system preferences), and I was wondering if anyone knew how to turn this off. I'll keep looking, and I'll post if I find anything, but if anyone knew the answer, or could point me to another post, I'd really appreciate it.
    Thanks in advance.

    I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that you've got a custom timecode field somewhere in your production and/or asset metadata group(s), right? And I'm going to further guess that this timecode field has dashes in it like this --:--:--:--, right? If so, try this: Click the arrow next to the timecode field and adjust the timecode so that it has a number (it doesn't matter what the number is as long it's not dashes - "00:00:00:00" is fine). Then Save this asset, close it and then reopen it and see if the beeping madness has vanished. Then, to make this change permanent for all of your new assets, make sure to edit the default value of any custom timecode fields to put zeros (or some other numeric default value) into them when a new asset is generated. If the asset still beeps when you open it, check the other metadata groups in your set to see if there isn't another empty timecode field lurking in the shadows.

  • How do I stop the "other" data from growing every time I sync my iPhone?

    I recently started putting music on my iPhone 4s, and I found that every time I sync music, the "other" storage keeps growing. This only happens when I sync music. If I don't have music on my iPhone, the "other" doesn't grow. Why is this?? Does anyone know how to make this stop? I had to restore my phone as new to delete the "other" storage (I had almost 3 G on my 8 G iPhone). Because the "other" data takes up so much room, I find it difficult to add everything that I want to on my iPhone (like all of my music). Please help!

    Hello brownielox,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information, take a look at:
    iPhone, iPad, and iPod: Understanding capacity

    iOS: "Not enough free space" alert when trying to sync
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1503
    Resolution
    Try disconnecting and reconnecting your device, then syncing again to solve this issue.
    Orphaned files may remain on your iOS device if it is physically disconnected while syncing music, podcasts, videos, or photos. This can prevent iTunes from syncing the iOS device on subsequent sync sessions. When this happens, the Capacity indicator in iTunes may report a large amount of "Other" disk usage for the iOS device. To resolve this issue:
    Turn off the music or photo sync option in iTunes for the device.
    Click Apply to sync the changes to the device.
    Turn the music and photo sync options for the device on again.
    Click Apply again to try to sync the device to iTunes.
    If the 'Not enough free space' alert appears, continue to step 5.
    Turn off the automatic syncing functions for the iOS device. To do this:
    Select the iOS device from the iTunes window and click the Summary tab.
    Deselect "Automatically sync when this device is connected" and select the "Sync only checked songs and videos" checkbox.
    Click Apply to sync the changes to the device.
    Reduce the amount of data that is being synced to the device and resync the device. For example, if syncing your Music library exceeds the memory capacity of the device, choose "Selected playlists" to transfer rather than "All songs and playlists" under the Music tab in iTunes.
    If the 'Not enough free space' alert appears, continue to step 6.
    Restore using iTunes.
    Have a nice day,
    Mario

    I'm having trouble keeping up with this topic ... every time I've finished a post, there's three or four new replies showing up and the troubleshoot has moved on.
    The toolbars can be (silently) installed by a number of different packages/websites, although I fear I'm well behind the times on what packages/websites are most commonly installing them for folks nowadays. There's a lot of variations about, as it's a platform rather than a specific application:

    I'll defer to Carolyn on the state-of-the-art when it comes to removing the toolbars.

  • How do I stop the annoying silverlight update notices?

    How do I stop the annoying silverlight update notices?

    hello, enter "about:config" into the location-bar of the browser, confirm the info dialog, then search for the preference named "plugins.hide_infobar_for_outdated_plugin" & double-click it in order to toggle it to "true".
    please note that firefox also won't support the ppc architecture any longer, however if you want to use an up-to-date browser based on firefox you can switch to "tenfourfox" , the downside would be: it doesn't support plugins at all - [[Firefox no longer works with Mac OS X 10.4 or PowerPC processors]]

    How do I stop the spinning wheel that replaced the cursor in a Word document?

    Something is causing Word to lock up.  Restart the laptop and/or reinstall Office/Word to fix the instability.  Maybe even a bad plugin or document could be causing this if it's only happening when you open a particular doc.

  • How do I stop the spinning ball that keeps going and going and going

    How do I stop the spinning ball that keeps going and going and going.  I think I have to remove cookies, but I don't know how.

    I think I solved it.
    I searched my extensions folder (in my profile) for all image files (PNG and JPG), and found the pop-up images to be in an extension folder related to Firefox Sync (not an external extension, actually). But even though I had already disabled it and un-linked this computer from Firefox Sync, the message still popped-up.
    I think the image filename was SYNC.PNG, or something like that. Close Firefox, find the folder where that image is in, and rename the main folder (the one right under the extensions folder) to some other name (such as "original name_copy"). Then start Firefox. Check if it works OK and if the pop-up ceases to appear. If everything OK, then you can delete that folder.
    If something goes wrong, just rename the folder to what it was before.
