How to disable quicktime in firefox, and launch with VLC.

I have tried to disable the quicktime browser plugin in quicktime to not open .mpeg and simular files, however they still launch the quicktime player plugin in firefox. How can I get it so that any video file i click on asks me which program I would like to open it with?

Couple ways to treat these situations. Here's one solution:
Go to System Preferences < Quicktime. Click on the Advanced Tab. Click on MIME Settings and select (or de-select) media types you don't want Quicktime to open by default.

  • When accessing eBay with Firefox and launching a search, I get less results/hits with Firefox then when using Internet Explorer, why? Try it, you'll see.

    For example access eBay with Firefox and launch a search on the word Frankenstein: you'll get something like 23,671 results (if you search in ''All categories''). Then quit the Firefox browser and load Microsoft Internet Explorer instead; access eBay again and repeat the very same search: this time you'll get 25,383 results. These are reral figures that I tried at 19:21 on March 20, 2014. Why does a search on eBay through Firefox report less hits than the very same search through Internet Explorer? Using Firefox rather than Microsoft Internet Explorer automatically means missing hits/results/items on eBay: that doesn't make sense but it does happen. Why is it so? Thank you, somebody, for shedding light on this problem.

    Try this steps and try to load the same once again!!!
    Hello,

    #From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
    #Now click the ''Clear now'' button.

    In my report I have to get these record typpes as field name dynamically whichever is available in that lookup and record values against them.
    its a BI Publisher report.

    if you have data in db then you can create xml with needed structure

    How to get slideshow to Pause and restart with auto play enabled? Happening in all slideshow do not restart once one photo is selected

    I agree cwclark, I was going to ask the exact same thing, and yes, the only way to 'restart' the auto play is to reload the page which is frustrating to say the least. Every other site I've seen with this kind of 'auto-play' slide show still auto-plays even after clicking the 'next' or 'previous' buttons. Adobe, you need to get a fix for this ASAP

  • How to disable hidpi on FireFox 22

    I whish to know how to disable hidpi

    It's a mess. Respecting dpi or not, a lot of websites look broken now because they're zoomed in! The user doesn't care why, he just sees it's wrong. No one but developers and Geeks would have a clue why.
    Make the activation optional, what is Mozilla thinking? This will backfire...
    For everyone who wants to get rid of it in the mean time, go to the Firefox config (about:config) and change the value:
    layout.css.devPixelsPerPx -1.0 to
    layout.css.devPixelsPerPx 1.0
