How do I stop my itunes from opening everytime I download a song.

Whenever I download a song or album from the internet my itunes opens and starts playing the song automatically. How do I stop this?

try this:
right-click or crtl-click on one of the downloaded files and choose +open with+, then select other. you will see this window
select QuickTime from the applications folder and check +always open with+.

    What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?
    Basic Troubleshooting Steps when all else fails
    - Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, and swiping the App upward to make it disappear.  (For iOS 6, holding down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.)
    - Relaunch the App and try again.
    - Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    - Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
    - Reset All Settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
    - Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
    - Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137  For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
    - Test the issue after each step.  If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

    how do i stop my itunes from changing the location of my itunes media.  i have it saved on a external HD and it keeps changing back to my local drive with out being told

    No, an external drive will not always be mounted. If the drive goes to sleep, it can unmount, or it may unmount for other reasons. As Chris said, confim that the drive is mounted and active before launching iTunes.

    I don't have any problem attaching just a MS Word file in Mail. My process is pretty simple....with a message open I click the attach icon (paperclip) at the top of the message, then navigate to where the file is located and select it. I make sure I have the cursor at the bottom of the new message below my signature line. FWIW I use MS Word 2011.

  • How do I stop extra tabs from open on start up?

    How do I stop extra tabs from open on start up? When I save new tabs the next time I open I have the new saved tabs. On the next opening after that are the same 7 tabs I don't want and didn't save. edit

    Make sure that the pages aren't set as multiple home page, see
    * [[How to set the home page]] - Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' symbols
    See also:

    If you use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the 'Browsing History' when you close Firefox then restoring tabs from the last session ("Save & Quit" or "Show my windows and tabs from last time") doesn't work.

  • How can i stop sharepoint designer from opening my site with WEBDAV

    I have a second collection in my web application for Project Server
    http:\\servername\PWA.
    Whenever I try to edit a page using sharepoint designer, it tells me that
    The website has been configured to disallow page editing with Sharepoint Designer.
    That isnt the reason.  Searching on the interweb, It seems that whenever you have a second collection,  designer always connects using Webdav and this doesn't support designer.
    So -----  Can anyone tell me how to get around this problem without installing PWA as it's own Web Application?
    Thanks in advance - Mickeal Davis

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you want to stop sharepoint designer from opening my site with WEBDAV.
    What’s the main reason of the problem that related to Project Site Template this by default set to DisableWebDesignFeatu es in
    ONET.XML.
    To enable edit Project Site in SharePoint Designer, you need to remove the DisableWebDesignFeatures="wdfopensite" from ONET.xml of the PWA site.
    More information:

  • How can I stop  Adobe Reader from opening after start up?

    I just installed version 9. I remember a question that appeared during installation that was something like "do you want Adobe Reader to open after start up?" I said checked yes because I assumed this meant I wanted it in my StartUp menu. After everything loads and my desktop comes up, the Adobe Reader file opens up showing all the program's files and just sits there. I have to close it each time after start up.
    I looked through Preferences, but can't find a way of stopping the program's file window from opening after start up. How can I stop this? Thanks for your help.

    Edit>Preferences
    Under Page Display:
    Where it says "Location of referenced files", if it shows "Floppy Disk A:/" clear the box, or choose an alternate location if you can't clear it.
    Also, under Search:
    Click "Purge Cache Contents"

  • How do I stop my itunes from asking me if I want to copy new voice memos

    Every time I connect my ipod to the computer my itunes asks me if I want to copy new voice memos(even when there are no new voice memos). How can I stop this?

    I have the same problem with Keynote.
    It's already set to accept incoming connections but it still asks whenever it's launched--annoying.
    Is there a fix?
