Disable AirPlay in Mobile Safari

I see a lot of questions about enabling AirPlay, but I actually need to disable it for certain videos I have on my site. I found Apple's guide on doing this in HTML5 at http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/AudioVideo/Conceptual/AirPl ayGuide/AirPlayGuide.pdf. However, when I did what it said to opt out (x-webkit-airplay="disallow") it didn't disable AirPlay at all. I found other sites that suggested using the word "deny" instead of "disallow" and if I do that, I still have AirPlay but the audio only. However, when I push that to my Apple TV via AirPlay, it exposes the stream URL instead of any "nice" metadata; this is a live stream using .m3u8.
So my questions are:
Is there any way to truly remove AirPlay entirely via HTML5 and Mobile Safari? (I know there are bookmarklet hacks to re-enable it but we're looking at the common user in this scenario, who won't think of that.)
If the best I can do is disable the video push, which is acceptable, is there any way to control what Apple TV shows on screen for the audio track?
Thanks.

How can I disable the tabs in safari on the ipad2

How can I disable the tabs on safari on my ipad2. I hate the tabs!!!

You can't, Safari on iOS 5 on the iPad uses tabbed browsing. You can try leaving feedback for Apple and maybe in a future update we'll get the choice of tabs or thumbnail/paged browsing : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html
In the meantime I think that the (free) Opera browser and the iCab Mobile browser in the app store offer thumbnail browsing to some degree.

HT204291 Since ios 7 upgrade I cannot now use netflix. I keep geting a "disable airplay mirroring" there is no airplay icon and I cant find a helpful answer anywhere.

Since updating ipad to ios 7 cannot play netflix. Keep getting message to disable airplay morroring but dont have the icon. Help angry!

Hello Suzanil3726,
It sounds like you would like to open another tab in Safari without closing the ones you already have open. The + symbol you are looking for to open another tab is in the upper right hand corner in Safari on the iPad using iOS 7.

How to disable airplay mirroring on iPad with ios7

How to disable airplay mirroring on iPad with ios7?

I've had this problem ever since I was at my friend's house- she has Apple TV- and my iPad connected automatically. So, I have no idea why any of the practical solutions that people think of are not options BUT, in terms of just getting it done, I did figure out a way. The key for me was getting near another Apple TV. I was out of town so I took my iPad to another friend's house who also has TV. Once I was logged onto their wireless network (the same network that their Apple TV is on-- that's how it connected in the first place), then the Airplay icon and options showed up from the bottom-draw menu and I was able to make sure that mirroring was turned off from the Apple TV section and to make sure the selection was on iPad instead. Problem solved. Now whether or not this will stay the same (rather than me having to make sure it stays at this setting everytime I link up to a network that has an Apple TV on it) I don't know. So my advice is find someone with Apple TV and connect to their network with your iPad and then change it.

How do you create a login page using dashcode for the iPhone's mobile safari that will transfer you to the next page?

     Hey I have created a login page in Dashcode for a mobile safari app (aka iphone web app) and I am having trouble since I can not find any useful info about multiple pages. I don't want to use a stack layout view because it is only a login page and I need to check with a database to make sure the user's login info is correct. Right now I have it set up so that it loads another iphone web app project once it validates the info.
     The only problem with this is I am having a good bit of trouble trying to pass values from my php code to javascript or html. For some reason calling the javascript inside the php code makes the actual code inside the app not be called and same with the echo statment for the html.
So I would like to be able to create the app in this way:
Login page > PHP > MS SQL > PHP > UNKNOWN (if I can't get the javascript or html to output both) > Secure info on the next page
     I believe It would be a lot easier if I had the option for a multiple page but instead I am having to load up an entirely new dashcode project. If anyone knows a better way please let me know. Or if anyone knows a link to good information on passing values from php to javascript, because I couldn't get any of the code I tried to work, I would really appreciate it.

Addendum to previous reply:
OK. This is weird--but I should be used to that, and just grateful that it seems to work (for now).
What I had done is FTPd some image files to my site using Filezilla, but when I had tried to access them, I was unsuccessful. I am almost sure that I used the same url (and variations of it) as you suggested, namely,  http://mysite.verizon.net/username/filename , and it either did not work, or gave me the "Page under construction", or, in some cases asked me for my username and password.
But, when I did it this time, it worked. So I probably had something off, but I can now do what I want.
By the way, if you'll permit another question, while on the site-builder site, it said that there was a "Web Photo Manager", and said that "To download the Web Photo Manager: Open the Site Builder application and go to the All My Sites page. Click on the Web Photo Manager link (listed under Advanced Building Tools )." I can't find it--would you happen to know where it is?
In any case, thanks a lot for all your help--it solved my problem.

How do I disable AirPlay on my Macbook Pro

I don't understand how to disable AirPlay on my macbook pro. It keeps asking for a password...In which i never set! Now my garageband is soundless and a pop up keeps coming on my screen asking for the password.

You had to have set up a password when the machine was first purchased. Registration will not let you get past it when you boot up the first time. You'll have to reboot holding down the Command and R keys at the same time, select Recovery Partition, and in the menus at the top there should be an option to reset password.
More about recovery partitions is at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718

Image Won't Display In Mobile Safari

I'm developing a website, it validates properly, and it works perfectly in Chrome, FireFox, Internet Explorer, and Desktop Safari. The only problem that I'm having with it is in Mobile Safari for iOS. I have a div element with an <img> tag inside it. On a desktop browser, it will show it. However, iOS will display a missing image icon instead. This only occurs on iOS. You can test it out yourself by going to http://covu.optini.com first in your desktop browser and then again in your Mobile Safari browser. Could anyone please give me some insight as to why this would be happening? Thanks. All the other images display correctly in Mobile Safari.

Update: It works perfectly on iOS5 Mobile Safari. It isn't working on iOS 4.3.3's Safari.
I hate to double post, but the edit button wasn't showing up.

Mobile Safari does not play videos

http://naartjie.nanoson.com/movie.html
Three videos on a simple HTML page[/URL] Check HTML source yourself - it's trivial!
First video about Subaru plays well in Mobile Safari.
About second Mobile Safari says, that it can't download video file! About third it says, that video can't be played.
First I thought that video format is wrong, but! If all that 3 videos send via email to iPhone or upload to iDisk and use iDisk.app, all they can played without any errors! So what is my mistake? Are there any more strict limitations on video in HTML for Mobile Safari?

K T, I'm not sure what you're talking about, but since this WORKED on the iPad but DID NOT work on ANY other version of Safari (including the iPhone/iPod version), I don't think that could possibly be the issue. Now, what it COULD be is that I processed these videos on an old PowerMac with Final Cut Studio 1 (so Compressor 2, not Compressor 3) . . . but I thought the H.264 standard has been unchanged for seven years, right? If so, I don't see how that could be it either. But I don't know much about this stuff.
Would compressing the file for "streaming" rather than "download" on an older version of Compressor do anything to the resulting file that would somehow make it incompatible with Safari? And maybe they just tweaked the **** out of the iPad for the big launch and caught that bug, but haven't fixed it on other platforms yet? Like I said, I don't know much about this stuff, but that's the only thing I can think of that made the videos I processed, uploaded, and tested any different than the videos that WORK on all versions of Safari.
To clarify, all the videos I have processed myself ONLY work on the iPad. Videos I download from the Internet, then upload and test with the exact same code, work on all up-to-date versions of Safari (and Chrome too).

Bookmarks bar and tab controls not working in mobile Safari on iPad2

The bookmarks bar as well as tab controls in Mobile Safari on iPad 2 are not clickable. Only the topmost nav buttons work. This persists through reboots w/Safari closed via mem manager, and a system restore. What do?

closing Safari via the taskbar
or having done a reset (unless that is what you mean by a reboot)
"This persists through reboots w/Safari closed via mem manager"
That is obviously exactly what I meant. How does one reboot an iPad without "resetting" it? How does one do a system restore without "resetting" it?

Images saved from Mobile Safari are significantly degraded

When I tried to use an image saved from Mobile Safari as my wallpaper I noticed that it looked horrible. It was blurry and more importantly the dynamic range of the image had been compressed, blowing out all the detail in the bright areas of the image and making it contrastier. This is especially bad on the type of photo I was trying to use, a high-key image, where most of the detail is in the light tones. Much of the image was simply displayed as blank white.
As a test I tried emailing the image I had saved into Photos to myself and compared it to the original I had saved from the web. Sure enough, the image was blurrier and had less dynamic range so it's not just an iPhone display issue. Also, the image was only 27% smaller in file size and the pixel dimensions were actually slightly increased. A quick re-save in Photoshop with JPEG quality set to low (4) reduced the file size by 53% while still not affecting the image anything like what the iPhone did. So it doesn't make sense that the poor quality is only due to resizing for faster transmission.
Can anyone else confirm this or replicate the issue? I've verified this with a 1st gen and 3G iPhone side by side, both running OS 2.1.

No, it's not only you.
I noticed it too. As a matter of fact, I just posted a really long post in a thread about iPhone/iPod Touch's photo quality.

Disable Airplay

Ever since my roomate bought an apple tv my MacBook Pro Audio has been automaticly connecting to the Apple TV. Is there a way to Disable Airplay audio on my mac?
MacBook Pro 15-inch, Mid 2010
OS X 10.8.4

So you need the iPad to be on the same wireless network as the Apple TVs?
I'm not finding a way to disable Airplay directly other than to turn off WiFi, and that of course takes you off your wireless network. If they were on different networks, that may work.
You can turn wireless mirroring on and off, but it sounds like you are talking about the ability to Airplay directly from the App with that handy little button right in the player.
Does she need Internet access? or is she playing with stand alone apps?
