How do I turn of sounds in my browser so I can listen to music while I surf?

I am listening to music on my computer. As I surf the net various websites play sounds I don't want to hear. How can I silence the browser? I can't turn down the volume on my computer because I can't hear my music?

On Vista you can set the volume in the mixer for each application, so you can set the volume level for Firefox to 0
See [[No sound in Firefox]] and [[Video or audio does not play]]
You can click the Volume icon on the Windows Taskbar near the clock and click the Mixer link at the bottom to open the mixer.<br />
You can adjust the volume level for each application in that window.<br />
You will only see the Firefox program in the Mixer if you are on a website that plays sound.<br />

    How do I turn off icloud on my iphone 4s?
    Can I still use Find My Phone?

    You cannot use Find My iPhone without iCloud.
    If you want to sign off of your iCloud account on your iPhone, you go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and sign out. It will ask for your password so it can turn off Find My iPhone before removing the iCloud account from your device.

  • How do I turn off (and on) Private Browsing in Version 28?

    How do I turn off (and on) Private Browsing in Version 28? Seems to be permanently set to Private Browsing mode. I would like to be able to choose which mode on the fly without addons. All the help I have seen so far, is for older versions of Firefox. I am using Version 28. Which seems to be the latest version as of right now.

    You can check that you aren't running Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode (Never remember history)?
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Private+Browsing
    *Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history"
    *Deselect: [ ] "Always use private browsing mode"
    You can check the target line in the Firefox desktop shortcut (right-click: Properties) to make sure that nothing is appended after the path to the Firefox program.
    *https://developer.mozilla.org/Command_Line_Options
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

  • I just downloaded music in a .flac format.  how do i get that into my itunes library so i can listen to it on my iMac, iPhone and Sonos?

    I just downloaded music in a .flac format.  how do i get that into my itunes library so i can listen to it on my iMac, iPhone and Sonos?

    Sneedham,
    iTunes is not capable of playing songs in FLAC format.
    To use the music in iTunes get a 3rd party converter such as Switch and create versions in an iTunes compatible audio format such as MP3, AAC, Wav or AIFF.
    Keep the original FLACs on hand for times when you are using a more capable music player.

  • How do i turn off sounds within itunes, such as the download complete sound and other sounds added with 11.11.1

    some of the sounds added with the latest addition of itunes are really annoying and suprising, especially when listening to music. how do i turn them off?

    What really cheeses me off here is that Apple isn't allowing users enough customization.  With each update of iTunes (and the OS and iOS) we're forced to give up something that worked well for the way we want to use the app and make do with fewer (and lamer) options.  If Apple keeps this up, they're going to start losing customers fast.  I mean if this isn't fixed soon, I'm pretty sure I'm going to give up on iTunes, and then I'll probably go ahead and get a Galaxy when I need to replace my iPhone.
    What I don't understand about how they won't let users delete the list of available podcasts now is why?  How is this making it a better program?  I can understand that not all users are capable enough to right-click on a feed and select "Show all available episodes", so I can see why they want the complete list to be the default (and, surprise, it already was).  But to not give users the option to delete that list?  It's inconsiderate because it makes navigating feeds with a large back catalogue really frustrating.  I'm flabbergasted that no one at Apple considered all the podcast feeds that keep hundreds of episodes available when they removed this feature.  It smacks of rank incompetence.
    What improvement were they trying to make here anyway?  There was nothing wrong to my mind about how podcasts were managed in previous versions.  Whatever improvement they were trying to make here, they should have realized that many users would at least want the option to keep things the way they were.
    And reverting to a previous version is no solution.  I can't sync my iPhone with the new iOS without this update, and (while I do have some issues--specifically how you can't play podcasts in the Music app anymore) I do like the new iOS.

  • How do I turn on photo sharing in itunes so I can see all my iphone photos on my ipad and home computer?

    How do I turn on home sharing so I can see all my iphone photos on all my devices, ipad, apple TV, and home computer?  I must have stopped home sharing when setting this up but would like to turn it on again.

    You might have been using the iPad every day and this issue could have cropped up anyway. I have read where users state that they used their iPad the night before, plugged in to charge it over night and they had the connect to iTunes message on the iPad the next morning.
    What I'm saying is that what happened to you can't be explained other than something went wrong. Brilliant I know, but how can anyone possibly know what happended for sure.
    Without a computer - and I know that with iOS 5 an iPad can be PC free - it is my belief that you could be facing issues down the line because even with iCloud - if you get the connect to iTunes message - there is no way to correct the problem without a computer.
    Even of you had been using the device every day, charging it every night and taking great pains to ensure that the iPad was well cared for, once the connect to iTunes message pops up - you still need a computer.
    Unless I have been missing something for the last six months, iCloud can't bail anyone out of this scenario.

  • How do I turn off autocomplete in the browser bar?

    With the newest update for firefox, the browser bar now autocompletes website names for you. How do I turn this off? I prefer the older way where if you don't insert www. it would google it for you now, there is no way to do that. If I type firefox in there and press enter, it would direct me to firefox.com even if I wanted to google it. How do I turn this off?

    You can also set the Boolean pref <b>browser.urlbar.autoFill</b> to <i>false</i> on the <b>about:config</b> page if you want to keep using the drop down list.
