  • How can I stop random audio advertising files from playing?

    Recently, my Macbook Pro has been playing random audio files.  They are mostly advertisments about mucus medicine and news clips about soccer.  Yesterday, I discovered that when I quit Safari, the audio stops.  Today the problem is back again.  What can I do to get rid of these annoying ads?

    Safari > Preferences > Security
    Make sure that "Block pop-up windows" is enabled.
    Temporarily disable the plug-ins
    Safari >  Preferences > Security > Web content:  Enable plug-ins
    If the audio is from Flash based ads it should stop.
    Re-enable that feature later.
    Best.

  • How do I stop Weather Channel's videos from playing automatically?

    A previous answer to a similar question referred us to the "Stop Autoplay" add-on. That add-on, however, has been withdrawn.
    Is there another solution?
    PS: I'm using Firefox 18.0 for Windows XP.

    To stop Auto playing of videos and flash content, use flash block firefox addons

    You need to figure out which app you downloaded that is doing that.  I know there is a camera app that causes your browser to do that.  It's most likely a free app.  In the future becareful of the apps you download, if it asks for more access than it needs don't install it.
    Go to your downloaded apps section in Marketplace and read the comments on all recent apps, there should be comments about it on the app that is causing this.
    Edit:  If you find out which one is doing it, make sure you uninstall it and use the marketplace to report it as malicious content.  Make sure you do a battery pull reset after you uninstall it.

  • How do i stop the rainbow coloured circle from appearing especially when using IPhoto?

    how do i stop the rainbow coloured circle from appearing especially when using IPhoto?

    Back up all data immediately as your boot drive may be failing.
    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    syslog -k Sender kernel -k Message CReq 'Channel t|GPU D|I/O|Previous Sh' | tail | open -ef
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V).
    The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
    A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. If the command produced no output, the window will be empty. Post the contents of the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window), if any — the text, please, not a screenshot. The title of the window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that.

  • How do I stop my wife's iPhone from importing her photos to my iPhoto account on my laptop?

    How do I stop my wife's iPhone from importing her photos to my iPhoto account on my laptop?
    I set it up to do this a couple years ago but I forgot exactly how I did it.  Now I need to know how to stop it.
    What version of iPhoto? v9.6
    Of the OS? 10.10.1
    How are you importing photos? The photos (camera roll) from my wife's iPhone 5 syncs via wifi to my iPhoto account on the the laptop.  This happens when she logs on to the laptop.  We do not use the same Apple ID.
    Like I said, I did this a couple years ago.   I totally forgot how I did it and what method (iTunes settings?, Mac settings?, iPhone setting?) I utilized.
    I was over at the forum which deals with iPhoto but they feel it is an iCloud issue.

    Understood.
    What version of iPhoto? v9.6
    Of the OS? 10.10.1

  • I have downloaded an app which I think is to large to my IPAD as it has read loading for hours now. How do I stop it and clear it from the pad. I have tried the normal holding down the icon but nothing happens?

    I have downloaded an app which I think is to large as it has jammed. The icon just reads loading. How can I stop it and clear it from my  pad????

    Have you tried a reset to see if it resumes after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    You could create the new Apple ID for her and keep the existing one for you.
    If you need/want to keep the same ID, perhaps this article will help: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5538

  • How do I stop my texts and pictures from going to other devices with same Apple ID

    I share my Apple ID with my son on his Ipad and I phone.  how do I stop my photos and messages from automatically going to his devices.

    It should be iMessages which are going from device to device, you can turn this off in recipient device. The same sort of thing for Photos, however on your phone/ipad you can turn off 'Photo Stream" which will stop the sending to other devices.  You can do this under Settings>Photos & Camera.

    How can I stop the iWeb welcome movie from appearing every time iWeb starts up?
    Oh yes and now that we are talking: when I plug in my ipod, I want iTunes to start, not iPhoto.
    Who knows these tricks?

    iPhoto seems to be viewing the iPod as a camera.  Therefore go to iPhoto's General preference pane and select No application in the Connecting camera opens: menu.

  • How do I stop all of my devices from ringing when a call comes in

    How do I stop all of my devices from ringing when a call comes in

    Use a different iCloud account on each device.
    Don't use iCloud at all.
    Disable Bluetooth.
    Don't connect to the same wi-fi network on all the devices.
    Go to Settings > FaceTime and turn it off.
    Go to Settings > FaceTime on the devices and disable 'iPhone Cellular Calls'.
    Any of these will work, but the last one is probably best.
