How can I stop adverts with sound coming up?

When I go to certain web sites a video with sound comes up which is very awkward for my wife in the middle of the night. Can I suppress adverts like this?

  • What does this mean, and how can I stop this message from coming up constantly in my e-mail program? "Alert: Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (htpixel.adsafeprotectedtp) isn't associated with any program."

    This just started last night, and it seems to be affecting the functioning of my e-mail program (Yahoo mail). How can I stop it?

  • How can I stop pop up's coming up when I'm on the internet?

    Every time I click on a webpage at least 2 other tabs are made with irrelevant pop hp's. I have had this fixed before but I cannot remember what the person did to fix it! Any help?

    Click here and follow the instructions, or if there’s a type of adware not covered by them on the computer, these ones. If you're willing to use a tool to remove it(you don't need to, but may find it easier), you can instead run Adware Medic; this link is a direct download.

    Sounds like your phone has the jitters.
    This is sometimes caused when a DLL fle is missing when you restore, so the ipsw pacakge wasn't installed corectly.
    You could back up and restore, but if it doesn't help go to http://www.felixbruns.de/iPod/firmware/ and then download the same firmware your on.
    Open up iTunes and hold Shift+Restore and select that firmware, you can't use anoy ther firmwares though.
    Hope this helped

  • HT4796 migration is taking to long. How can I stop it?

    I just purchased an Imac and started transferring my information from a windows laptop but it is taking too long (28 hrs) I would like to stop this process but there is no cancel buton.
    How can I stop it with out disrupting files etc..
    Thank you!

    Not sure what you mean by 'reset', but I would try a real reset by holding the power button and the home button until you see the apple then let go. This will reboot the phone and you will not lose any data.

    When you quit firefox with tabs and windows open it "remembers".  When you start Firefox it tries to restore the tabs and windows you had open.
    You may also want to check the preferences for Firefox:

  • Ipad keeps  coming on and  online, even though I have it shut off and  wifi shut off, why is this and how can I stop it?  After shutting it off,  sometimes   10 minutes,  or hours later it comes back on, even when not using it

    When my Ipad has been disconnected from wifi and  shut off, it keeps  coming back on and online.  It can happen in 10 minutes, or hours later,  happens  irregulary.  Have noticed when it happens, I get nofications  from facebook of  comments and or posts..  I can switch the wifi off,    switch the iPad off and  then set it beside me,  hour later it dings, i have  noficiations of  face book things, and its online again.. why is this and how can I stop it from happening?

    Yes, I went to settings and turned wifi off.  Thought at first I wasnt letting it set for a sec or two before shutting the iPad off.  so now I wait like a minute or two  before shutting the iPad down.  didnt  seem to help.  Tried  actually logging out of  facebook when I was  done with it,  worked for about  4 days, and now it has started  coming on and coming online again,,  I  went through my notifications and  shut things off,   Well  see if it works.  thank you.

  • I want to listen to itunes through my 5.1 amp on apple tv but sound stops when tv is switched off how can I stop this?

    I want to listen to itunes through my 5.1 amp thru apple tv but the sound stops when when my television is switched off how can I stop this?
    All I want to be on is my PC and my amp connected thru ATV via optical linkl

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Yes there have been a number of reports posted about this, it seems different people experience different results here with some finding the same as you, some finding that it won't work at all with the TV turned off and some finding that if music is sent from iTunes on the mac/pc that as long as the TV is on when the stream starts, the TV can be turned off afterwards.
    My assumption here is that it depends on the TV itself, although that probably doesn't help all that much.

  • How can I stop Firefox from asking me over and over (even on pages with no flash content) to install Flash? I don't want Flash installed and this stupid pop-up.

    So even when I load up websites (like ones we here at my job have created) with very simple HTML and absolutely nothing Flash related, I still get a pop-up asking me to install flash (pops down from the URL bar at left.) How can I stop this without disabling all plug-in updates?
    Moreover, why in the name of all that's good is it asking me about Flash when I have no pages open with anything remotely Flash like on them?
    Thanks to anyone who can answer.

    I do not see why this should happen because of Firefox. Maybe you have some sort of adware on your system.
    Please attach a screenshot of the popup
    * [[How do I create a screenshot of my problem?]]
    Try Firefoxin safe mode to rule out your standard extensions. if that does not solve the problem then scan for malware with multiple and up-to-date tools.
    Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
    You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:

  • I do not want to upgrade to 7.0, I am attending online college and the upgraded version does not work with my school. How can I stop Firefox from upgrading? I have to keep uninstalling the upgrade and installing the old one.

    It's not a good idea to allow websites to redirect to another site until you know for sure the original site is trustworthy.
    But if you still want to do it (again not a good idea).
    Tools>Options>Advanced>General - In Accessibility, uncheck "warn me when web sites try to redirect..." option.

  • HT1766 Hi, I share an iTunes account with my wife. Sometimes she gets my iMessages and I don't and vice versa. Also if people face time me it goes to her phone. How can I stop this from happening?

    Hi, I share an iTunes account with my wife. Sometimes she gets my iMessages and I don't and vice versa. Also if people face time me it goes to her phone. How can I stop this from happening?

    You can share the same Apple ID in
    Settings > iTunes & App Store > Apple ID: here
    But for all other Apple services like:
    FaceTime, iMessage, iCloud, etc, one of you should use a different Apple ID.

  • How can I stop multiple tabs from opening along with Mozilla Firefox Start Page at launching time.How can this be stopped?

    Whenever I launch Firefox, multiple tabs also start to open along with the Mozilla Firefox Start Page, which is very irritating. How can I stop this to happen each time I launch the browser?

    See these articles for some suggestions:
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Firefox+has+just+updated+tab+shows+each+time+you+start+Firefox
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page - Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' symbols
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
    It is also possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    Delete the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    * Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js
    If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.<br />
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note).
