How do stop videos from repeating, replaying themselves?

Recently, whenever I finished watching a video, it automatically starts over! (Happens with YouTube videos, Flash videos, videos on news sites, etc.)
It's quite annoying. I can start reading the associated story--or move to another page--and all of a sudden I start hearing the same video, and when I scroll back up I'll discover that it's replaying itself!
Is there any way of turning that OFF?!

Install the ClickToPlugin Safari extension.

How to stop iphone from repeatedly emailing same video clip

My sister emailed me a 17 mb video clip from her iphone 5. I have been receiving copies of this email about twice per hour. Does anyone have an idea of what is going on here?

The file was stuck her in her outbox, she deleted it, problem went away....still don't know why it was stuck. She went through a lot of data on her data plan. Thanks.

How to stop video from playing?

Hi,
i have a problem that i've already see that is pretty usual, the videoplayer that i have works fine but when i click in a button to go to another page the videoplayer doesn't stop,the audio continues playing even when i'm not on the videoplayer page.
I've already found some solutions in the web but none of them worked,probably because i didn't put them in the right place

How to stop gatekeeper from repeatedly asking to open vlc

i downloaded and installed vlc. now, overtime i open it, gatekeeper keeps on asking me to either open it or not. HOW DO I STOP THIS?

Gatekeeper doesn't ask if you want to Open an app, just if you want to install it. If it is asking if you are sure you want to open this program downloaded from the Internet, that is the Quarantine system.
About the "Are you sure you want to open it?" alert (File Quarantine / Known Malware Detection) in OS X - Apple Support
I think there is a database that updates the quarantined items as I have quite a few with the Quarantine extended attribute, but they don't complain.
You can try removing the attribute and see what happens. Copy and paste this into Terminal. If you don't have VLC in your Applications folder, then let me know where it is as this won't work if you've put it somewhere else:
xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/VLC.app/

How to stop video from playing while working on menu

I have some menus with a bunch of moving video clips in drop zones in them. After some fiddling around with preferences, the clips are playing while working on the menus rather than just showing still images. I havent seen this behavior before.
Anyway, its making it excruciatingly, hair pullingly, jump out the windowly, eventually the app does not respondly slow to do any work in the app. Anyone know what stupid setting we must have changed?
thx

Thx for the speedy reply. I'm not sure what was happening, but thankfully the app was so overwhelmed that I had to force quit it. Aside from losing my recent changes (aarrggh why no autosave in dvdsp) it was a blessing because on opening the app again, problem gone. Didnt have to jump afterall. I'll try some experiments with those keystrokes once the app is done rendering these menus.

Final cut 7 - how to stop video from moving around in viewer?

Hi Guys
Any suggestions would be really appreciated.
In FCP7 the diagonal crosshair 'X' (I don't want to see this X) has appeared in my viewer over the video clip I wish to drag onto my timeline.
However, after setting my in and out points as normal, when I try to drag it down, the video moves in the viewer (revealing black space).
My question is, how can I somehow 'reset' the video in the viewer window back to its locked, original position, so I can drag it down onto my timeline as I used to?

Thanks David, I appreciate it.
I also realised I had inadvertently changed the 'center' and 'scale' figures! So by resetting to zero the picture locked back in place.

How to stop videos from automatically playing in safari?

Recently, when I open various web pages in Safari 7.0.6, running OS 10.9.4 videos will start playing immediately. Sometimes 4 or 5 on one page all at once. I did a search for this issue and found the suggestion to run click to flash. I have it installed and turn on so that isn't a solution at this time. Another suggestion was for clicktoplugin but I do not find one with that name.
This is very annoying as they often come on very loudly and I have to scroll up and down the page trying to find the window or windows with the videos playing. They can be way down at the bottom of the pages.
Can anyone help me fix this?
Michelle

Click to Plugin is what I use. It is available here:
http://hoyois.github.io/safariextensions/clicktoplugin/
I set the preferences to pre-load but NOT play even after I click on something I want to see.

How to stop songs from repeating

Hi there -
I am using ITunes 10.
When I click on a song withing a playlist, that song keeps repeating indefinitely, though I have off checked under repeat in the control drop down box.
I know it used to play one right after the other, can't figure it out. Just recently updated to most recent ITunes version, don't know if this is the culprit or if there is something basic I am overlooking. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks!

I checked all under the repeat box, and that seems to have fixed things. Don't remember haviing had to do that in the past, but I guess I must have. Feel smart.

Toast 6.0 : How to stop DVD from repeating itself

I have created a DVD slideshow, using Fotomagico. Thus producing a .dv format for burning with Toast 6.0.
DVD plays fine except repeats itself. Could it be Toast ? Cannot find proper settings in Fotomagico.

There is a Toast checkbox, "Play all items continuously" that typically is used to play multiple items on the DVD without going back to the main menu. You could try unchecking this to see if that solves your looping problem.
Toast has the ability to create a disc image so you don't have to use up another disc. You may also wish to check with Roxio on this question.

How do I stop iPhoto from repeatedly closing Event title boxes when I am in the middle of entering a title?

How do I stop iPhoto from repeatedly closing Event title boxes when I am in the middle of entering a title?
This problem started several months ago. I have tried typing more slowly and typing faster; neither help.
It now takes me about four attempts to complete a title of about twelve characters, achieving about three characters on each attempt.
I am running iPhoto 9.4.3 on OS X 10.8.3 on a 2.93 GHz Intel Quad-Core i7 iMac with 12 GB of DDR3 memory.

As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?
