How can I make the default action for Real Player (etc.) to be not to play?

While browsing with Mozilla, I would prefer not to have videos play unless I start the video. This goes for commercials or any video.
Is there a preference to set this? If not, can you make one that does that?

By default plugins.click_to_play should be default set to true. However, please also contact Apple support to make sure that this is expected.
If there is not an option to override this, it is also possible to set the preference in about:plugins:

  • How can I change the default application for a content type?

    Running a version of Linux, the default application for PDF files is "Use Document Viewer (default)", which appears to be /usr/bin/evince. I'd much prefer to use /usr/bin/okular; how can I change the default. This question is NOT about how to change the function that is automatically applied when I access a link, in this case "Preview in Firefox", but rather to the default application that I can select when I download a file being viewed in Firefox's previewer.

    This is real progress, a solution to the problem as posted. The command:
    xdg-mime default okularApplication_pdf.desktop application/pdf
    makes okular the default.
    However when I added okular to the choices for applications in:
    * Edit>Preferences>Applications>PDF
    the popup box that appears when I click Download on the preview page changed. The pulldown menu that appears next to "Open with" used to have 3 entries:
    # Document Viewer (default)
    # Acroread
    # Other
    Now it has only 2:
    # Okular (Default)
    # Other
    I'd like it to read
    # Okular (Default)
    # Acroread
    # Other
    How can I control the entries in this pulldown list?
    Also, how can I make the default choice in the popup box be
    * Open With <whatever> , rather than
    * Save File ?

  • How can I change the default setting for downloading photos from email?

    How can I change the default setting for downloading photos from emails I receive?  It shows the default as Photoshop Elements 4.0 and is not supported by this system.  That was my last computer!!
    Thanks,

    That has nothing to do with styles nor Pages, it is a System/Printer Driver setting.
    You can experiment to see if the Printer Settings stick with your document, but in the past this has not worked.

  • How can i change the default application to vlc player for playing any videos on my macbook?

    How can i change the default application to vlc player for playing any videos on my macbook?

    1. Control click the file you want to open.
    2. Click Get Info.
    3. Under open with, pick the App you want to be default.
    4. Click Change All Button.
    5. Confirm your decision.
    You have to do this with every file that has a different extension. You can't change the default for every file with a different extension in a single operation.

  • How can I make a default border for a JWindow?

    I have a JWindow object that is created when a button is pressed in a JFrame. I want the JWindow to have the same type of border as the JFrame from which it's created. However, the JWindow is not created automatically with a border as the JFrame is, so I don't know how to set the border abstractly so that whatever border is used for the JFrame, per he default L&F, will also be used for the JWindow.
    I tried grabbing the border object from the JFame instance itself, but there is no such field in JFrame or any of its ancestor classes. I looked at UIDefaults, but I have no idea how this class can be used to get what I want. For example, if I use UIDefaults.getBorder(Object obj), what do I specify for the argument?
    I'd be happy with an abstract or a concrete solution. That is, either using the default Border for top level containers in the current L&F, or by grabbing an actual Border instance from a JFrame object.

    Also, I'm curious why you said that JFrame is not a swing component.A Swing component extends JComponent. Basically this means that all the painting of the component is done in Java. You can add Borders to any Swing component. It is called a light weight component. A light weight component cannot exist by itself on the window desktop.
    JFrame, JDialog and JWindow are top level components. They can exist on their own on the windows desktop because essentially they are Windows native components. They have been fancied up to make it easy for you to access and add other Swing components to it which is why they are found in the swing package.
    A Windows border is not the same thing as a Swing Border and there is no way to access the native windows border and use it in a Swing application (that I know of anyway). Swing Borders are not used in a normal JFrame, the Windows border is used. You can however, turn off the use of Windows decorations and use Swing painted decorations. Read the tutorial on [url http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/components/frame.html#setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated]Specifying Windows Decorations. However, this doesn't really help you with your Border problem. If you look at the source code for the FrameBorder, you will find that the "blue" color of the Border is only painted for "active" windows and a JWindow can never be the active window, only the parent JFrame or JDialog is considered active.
    Here is a simple program for you to play around with:
    import java.awt.*;
    import javax.swing.*;
    import javax.swing.border.*;
    public class FrameDecorated
         public static void main(String[] args)
              JFrame.setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated(true);
              JFrame frame = new JFrame();
              frame.setDefaultCloseOperation( JFrame.DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE );
              frame.setSize(300, 300);
              frame.setVisible(true);
              Border border = frame.getRootPane().getBorder();
    //          Border border = UIManager.getBorder( "RootPane.frameBorder" );
              System.out.println( border );
              JWindow window = new JWindow(frame);
              JPanel contentPane = (JPanel)window.getContentPane();
              contentPane.add(new JTextField(), BorderLayout.NORTH);
              contentPane.setBorder( border );
              window.setSize(300, 300);
              window.setLocationRelativeTo( null );
              window.setVisible( true );
              System.out.println("Window:" + window);
              Window ancestor = SwingUtilities.getWindowAncestor(contentPane);
              System.out.println("Ancestor:" + ancestor);
              System.out.println(ancestor.isActive());
              System.out.println(frame.isActive());
    }

  • How can I change the default number for a contact when using Siri

    My husband has one mobile for work, one for home, both are in my favorites. When i'd ask Siri to dial his number, it would always ask me which one to use. Recently when calling him Siri asked if I would like to use his work number as the default and I mistakenly agreed. Now Siri never asks which number to dial and always dials the work number. How can I change that? I would like to make the default the home number.

    Thanks all for your responses.
    I tried to "order" Siri to change my husband's default number and whatever syntax I used for my request Siri responded with a web search on how to set favorites.
    So I ended up deleting the work number from my husband's contact information and I used Siri to call him a couple of times. After 24 hours (random time frame) I added his work mobile back to his contact information, but not in the favorites.
    SIri now dials his home number because it's the only one in the favorites.
    I'll add it to the favorites in due course.

  • How can I change the default page for a book?

    I have a book that contains six pages. One of the pages contains the login portlet while the others contain account specific information that a user can only see if they are logged in. Currently, I have the default page set to the login page.
    I am attempting to write a backing file for the book that will esentially change the default page for the book to be one of the other pages if the user is already logged in. In effect showing a logged in user their account summary page instead of the login portlet.
    I can't seem to find a way to change what page the user is shown with the book and page context classes. I can hide the login page, but this leaves the user looking at a blank page. Unfortunately I can't use entitlements, otherwise this would be easy.
    Does anyone know how to "forward" to another page from a backing file?
    Thanks,
    Sam

    Got it!
    In your backing file you'll need the following in your handlePostbackData method:
    BookBackingContext bookCtx = BookBackingContext.getBookBackingContext(arg0);
    bookCtx.setupPageChangeEvent("PageLabel");

  • How can I edit the default settings for the Email button?

    I saw this question posted for February and as yet still unanswered. So I am now asking it again.
    I do not want to use my .mac account email address in my website. I want it linked to my domain. I have found no specific instructions for changing the default. Also my drag down "Link to" menu in the Inspector does not work.
    Thanks........

    While you can't edit the default email address in iWeb, there is a workaround which may suit.
    In Safari, locate a web page which has iWeb's email button on it (if you've already published a site, one of your own web pages is ideal). Control-click on the button and select 'Add Image to iPhoto Library'. Drag this image from the Media Browser to your iWeb page, select the image, and use the Link inspector to enable it as a hyperlink linking to 'An Email Message'. Enter whatever email address you like in the To box and a Subject for the message if you wish.
    To make things easier, create an iWeb library in iPhoto and add the email button to it for handy access.

  • How Can I Get the FULL Installer for Flash Player 11.1.102.63?

    When I try the "Download now" button at http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/, I only get a stub installer that then requires downloading the remainder of the installer.  I maintain both my own PC and my wife's PC.  I want to install Flash Player 11.1.102.63 twice but download it only once. 
    When I instead try the link for "Flash Player for other browsers" under "Windows 32-bit", I get the full installer for Flash Player 11.1.102.62, not the full installer for Flash Player 11.1.102.63. 
    The latest version of Adobe Reader is available via FTP at ftp.adobe.com.  Why cannot the latest version of Flash Player also be available there? 

    at http://forums.adobe.com/thread/889580 the link for downloading "flash player 10", "for other browsers", still results in the OLD version of FP 10 being downloaded, not the newly updated version, build 10.3.183.16..
    in adobe's security bulletins, it says that you can download the updated versions of "flash player 10" on the "archives" webpage but there are no direct downloads for FP 10 on the webpage, except for downloading the zipped packages, with the "debuggers".. it would be good if there were direct downloads for the updated versions of FP 10..
    also, when i go to the "download center" page, http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/?promoid=BUIGP , if i go there with "firefox 3.6", it recognizes that i am running "firefox 3.6" and offers to install "flash player 10.3", but if i go there with "internet explorer 6", it is not recognized and so i am not offered "flash player 10.3", for installing.. in this situation, i need some other way to get "flash player 10.3" for "internet explorer 6"..
    adobe should make things easier for everyone by providing direct downloads for flash player..in my case, i use "flash player 10", so i need direct downloads for it.. yes, it is nice that the downloads are posted in the forum, but why not do it right and have in on some webpage, like on the "archives" webpage where adobe says that "flash player 10" can be downloaded, except that there are no links there for downloading it..

  • How can I select the default greeting for a voicemail for the iPhone 4s?

    I am wanting to set up the voicemail feature for my iPhone 4s. (I have had this phone for years but never enacted a voicemail!) However, I am having trouble. When I click on the phone settings in my phone, the only options I have in regards to voicemail is to set up or change the password. I am not given the option to set up a voicemail. Whenever I try to set up the voicemail by dialing *86, I am given only the options of changing my password or to set up a custom greeting. I am not able to select the default/standard greeting as it is not mentioned. I am wondering how I can go about this. I am not sure why I don't have the options already available in my phone automatically or why it is not provided as an option when I call to set it up.
    Any help with this?
    Thank you!!

    nnd217, Help is here! The 4S is a great device, sorry to learn that you are having trouble with setting up the VM default greeting. I should be able to shed some light on this situation. If you go to your phone icon, as if you were making a call, you should see the voicemail icon down at the bottom right. Once you select that, in the upper left corner there is an option that says Greeting, so ahead and select that. From there you have two choices, default and Customer. If you select default there will be a check mark in that box, then hit save. You should now have your default greeting in place. If you do not have that or continue to have issues with it, please let me know!

  • How can I make the thesaurus work for spanish words?

    I have been using pages for about 4 months now, and usually I use it in english. I am currently writing a document in spanish but I can't manage to make the thesaurus, dictionary and wikipedia work for spanish words. I really need this to find synonyms.
    Any idea what do I need to do? I don't want to change the whole pages into spanish, nor I want the spanish spell check (I know how to do that), I only need the thesaurus.

    Dear me, doesn't Español work?
