How do I stop ads popping up?

I have check marked block pop-ups in safari - settings but still get these annoying banners at the bottom of
nearly every screen advertising other games or apps.
I bought the ipod second-hand so cannot vouch for what has been viewed etc in the past.

Ads are placed in the Apps so that you can verify that you're still connected to the internet. That's how Apple gets money, they advertise on the Apps. But you can remove these Ads by buying the complete version of the App.
Or by disconnecting your device to the internet.
Not true, Apple built-in apps don't have ads. Most of the 3rd party free apps are using the ads support model to generate income.

    how do I stop iTunes popping to front ?
    Posted: 09-Sep-2009 22:53
    whenever iTunes has a dialogue window open every 30 seconds or so it keeps popping to the front. for example while writing this I have iTunes installing the new iPhone 3.1 software and it has an "updating iPhone" message and it is a real pain.
    my last post of this question has had replies disallowed and the problem hasn't been fixed in the new itunes update (9.1)
    also run as administrator dosen't work for me though others have had success with this

    Not sure if this will solve the whole problem for you, but its solved one of my major issues, so thought worth sharing.
    I have the problem that when importing CDs or attaching Ipod the itunes program pops to the front. You can be halfway through a post/email/doc whatever and then it just appears and before you know it youve pressed keys that mean youre listening to Bachmann Turner Overdrive...
    Anyway, I have solved this issue by going (in MAC OS X) to the system prefs and CD/DVD and making sure all options in there are set to ignore. In the itunes prefs I have stopped the ipod from auto synching and itunes from opening when you insert anything at all.
    Hope this helps and fixes a bit of stuff for people.

  • Whenever I click on something whether on line or in a document, a pop-up appears asking what I want to do, e.g., copy, cut, etc.  How do I stop these pop-ups?

    henever I click on something whether on line or in a document, a pop-up appears asking what I want to do, e.g., copy, cut, etc.  How do I stop these pop-ups?

    That's normal right-click behavior, if it's happening when you left-click, the first thing to check would be whether the setting got reversed in System Preferences > Mouse.            

  • Itunes page pops up continually on the pc since we added a second ipod. how do I stop the pop up? help/ to the same pc

    itunes page pops up continually on my windows Vista pc since we added a second ipod and sync it to the same pc. How do I stop the pop ups??

    Many thanks lllaass,
    The Touch Copy third party software for PC's is the way to go it seems and although the demo is free, if you have over 100 songs then it costs £15 to buy the software which seems not a lot to pay for peace of mind. and restoring your iTunes library back to how it was.
    Cheers

  • 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

  • How do I stop the pop-up window in Facebook that asks "Are you sure you want to navigate away from this page"

    It recently started to ask this every time I do anything on Facebook.

    Yes, this pop-up window in facebook is getting extremely annoying and most times after clicking on Ok, it will take me to a page totally opposite to where I wanted to go.
    When I chat on the Scrabble Discussion Board I have to click Ok constantly with each post even though I am not navigating away from that page but merely replying to a post on the same original page.
    It is not present on Chrome or IE 8, just on firefox, why?
    Please remove, fix, or tell me how to disable this totally useless pop-up.
