How do I keep QuickTime from being default player?

Any video I link to calls up Quick Time as the player. I have another program I like better. How can I make that one the default?

A better solution is if your email provider uses IMAP. IMAP sync email folders between multiple devices. Meaning any device will receive the email, all sent email can be seen on the devices. If you delete email from one device the email is deleted from all the other devices. Check with your email provider to see if they offer IMAP services.
If they do not your choices are to 1) configure email on the PC to keep Mail on the mail server or 2) change email providers to something like Gmail or Outlook.com (as examples). FWIW I use Cox IMAP email and fully sync email between a Win 8.1 Update 1 laptop, a Win 7 desktop, an iPad 4, an iPhone 4 and an iPhone 5S.

  • Keeping Quicktime from being the default media player

    My son has iTunes/Quicktime installed on this computer, but I do not want Quicktime to be the default media player. How do I keep it from being the default media player.

    Try just right-clicking on the link to the downloaded file. In most browsers you'll get some variant of a command to download the file to your computer. That would bypass the QuickTime browser plugin.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do I keep email from being marked read in Outlook before I read them on my computer?

    When email downloads to my phone, it automatically shows up as read in Outlook whether I've opened the mail on my phone or not.  Verizon says it's an issue with the host mail server and the host mail server says its a setting on the iPhone.  Help!

    If the account is a Verizon account, unless Verizon supports Exchange or IMAP account access, this has nothing to do with the iPhone, and there is no setting for this with the iPhone's Mail app or with any email client that I'm aware of.

  • Stop Illustrator from being default player for Flash .swf files

    Please help. I am on Mac OS X. I have the Adobe CS suite. I
    have downloaded, uninstalled, and reinstalled the flash player.
    However, whenever I download a flash file to play, it automatically
    opens in Illustrator. But Illustrator doesn't recognize it as a
    file so it doesn't open. I went through preferences and I can't
    find anything that will get it to stop doing that. I don't know how
    to get to the preferences for the flash player to change that. And
    there isn't a way have it open up in flash player because the flash
    player is not an actual application that comes up in the
    applications list. There is a certain website that it is mainly
    .swf flash files that I have not been able to access because of
    this problem. What do I do?

    Have you received information on how to change this
    situation? My SWF files always open Illustrator, also.

  • How to keep Reader from being installed if running Pro? Running Acrobat X Pro. Occaisionally, a website with a PDF triggers Reader to be installed on my system. NEVER want reader (that's why i bought Pro). How do i keep Reader from EVER being installed?

    Running Acrobat X Pro.
    Occasionally, a website with a PDF triggers Reader to be installed on my system.
    NEVER want reader (that's why i bought Pro).
    How do i keep Reader from EVER being installed?

    I don't get a pop-up. Something triggers the Reader installer to be loaded on my system. This occurs without my knowledge. Then, the next time i go to open a PDF, instead of it opening immediately with Acrobat Pro, I get the first screen of the installation stuff for Reader (Accept/Decline Terms of use, etc.). At this point, i get out of the install, go into control panel and uninstall Reader (which is listed as a loaded program, even though i haven't finished the install). After i uninstall reader and open a PDF, it opens correctly with Acrobat Pro. This happens once or twice a month at least. Is it possible that the Adobe Acrobat Update Service task loads Reader on my system at some interval? How do i block Reader form EVER being installed or loaded?

  • How can I keep lion from generating .DS_Store files on windows network partitions, but not disable it for all network partitions?

    How can I keep lion from generating .DS_Store files on windows network partitions, but not disable it for all network partitions?  I am fimilar with changing the setting for all network partitions(defaults write com.apple.desktopservices DSDontWriteNetworkStores true), but that is undesirable when I connect my laptop to my home network. A preferable solution would be where I could control the writing of these files based on disk format (NTFS vs HFS+).

    Go to MacUpdate or CNET Downloads and search for ds_store. There are numerous utilities for preventing them from being transferred to Windows systems.

  • Forte and MIDlet - how do you keep Forte from seeing J2SE classes?

    I am developing MIDlets with Forte; I have created a new MIDlet within a MIDlet suite, using the HelloWorld template.
    However Forte lets me use any old class in my code, not just the MIDP classes. For example, if I write a
    Float f = new Float();
    line in my code, Forte will compile without batting an eyelid, even though there is no Float class in MIDP.
    How can I keep Forte from accepting the use of J2SE classes when compiling MIDlets?
    Thanks

    OK, fixed - here's what I did:
    - I went to Project/Settings/Compiler Types and I moved the J2ME Wireless Internal Compilation on top of the list
    - then to Project/Settings/J2ME Wireless Settings and make sure that the J2ME Wireless Internal Compilation was the default compiler
    - then Project/Settings/Java Sources/Default compiler and set the compiler again
    -then I went to Tools/Global Options/J2ME Wireless Options and set "Check default compiler" to false
    Now it works!Perhaps there are useless/contradictory steps in there, but at least now my code is only compiled against MIDP classes and not J2SE classes.

  • Can I restore deleted history or keep history from being deleted?

    My question pretty much summed it up. I would like to restore deleted history or at least see what was deleted, or keep history from being deleted altogether.

    I do not like that firefox keeps harassing me to update it all the time. I Do not like that it has a private browsing feature and I want to know how to permanently get rid of this feature and never be bothered again by an update.

  • How do I keep FCP from auto-distorting my video when I drag it into the timeline?

    FCP keeps auto distorting my video when I drag it into the timeline. It keeps setting the motion aspect ratio to -12.5, then when I set it to 0 and render, the video has lost significant quality even though I have my motion render settings to: best. I figure it is this motion distort which is ruining my quality on render because the avi from the camera is ridiculously clean and un-pixelated. How do I keep FCP from auto-distorting my video? It makes no sense that it does, because at -12.5 aspect ratio, FCP is creating a letterbox for my video. I just want the video to fill the entire canvas that I chose! There must be a setting somewhere that I have missed, but I cannot figure it out for the life of me. Please help!
    I have a video shot on my Pentax K-r that is 1280x 720p 25fps. When run it in quicktime pro, the inspector affirms this sizing. And in QTpro there is no letterbox present when the original is played.
    In FCP I have the sequence settings at:
    HDTV 720p (16:9) (which is 1280 720)
    Timebase: 25
    I have tried to turn anamorphic on, then off in the clip format settings, and also turn the anamorphic on and off in the sequence settings. No combination seems to correct the problem.
    Any help is appreciated. Thank you,
    ML

    Hi I have done some more digging and found this:
    1) In the bottom left corner of FCPX, click the film reel so that you can see all your projects:
    2) Select the project you are having problems with and then in the inspector window, click on the spanner icon in the lower right side:
    3) Finally a window appears so that you can choose the settings for the video you are using:
    Hope that helps

  • When I do a search (for anything), the browser redirects me to a new page, usually an advertisement. How do I keep this from happening?

But when I click on any of those choices, the browser is automatically redirecting my to a different page (usually an advertisement). How do I keep this from happening any more? I am extremely frustrated...
