    How can I stop the auto play feature automatically playing/streaming the next podcast?

    Hi there.
    I listened to podcast there were two things I found that helped me out. Both we're in the podcast app itself.
    Firstly change the default sorting order. When looking at the list off episodes a available on your ios device tap on the description part at the top, this will bring up the settings for that podcast (subscribe mark as played etc) scroll to the Bottom and select oldest first. This will mean that if you are listening to the latest download it will stop at the end as there will be no more to play.
    Secondly, and useful if listening to older podcasts in the list, you can use the timer to stop once the current episode has ended. To do this when you are in the podcast playback screen slide the "album artwork" up, revealing the playback options and nifty tape playing animation this is where you adjust playback speed and set a timer. The timer has a number of options to set playback to stop after set amount of time. However one of these options is to stop once the current episode you are listening to ends. This can also be current chapter if the podcast you are listening to supports chapters.
    Hope this helps, if not clear let me know

  • How can I Stop Video from Playing? (not just mute or pause)

    I have a page for playing a video. Below it I have a 'return to previous page' button. If the video is playing and I click this button to return I can still hear the video playing in the background. I know how to mute or pause the video when clicking this button but I would like to know how to completely stop the video so that if I go back to the video page - the playhead is at the start and I can see its thumbnail image again.
    Anyone help?

    do you mean:
    sym.$("Video01")[0].currentTime = 0;
    I tried this but it didn't work (just resets and plays in background). Also, I have several videos on one page and a navigation bar at the top. I would like (when I click the Nav Bar to go to another page) any video to stop and reset to its Poster.
    If you like, I could send over a very simplified project.

  • How can I stop videos from playing in a slideshow?

    I only want to see a slideshow of the photos in an event but iPhoto 09 is showing all the videos as well. Is there a way for me to stop this without having to remove all the videos from every event?

    To add some to Terence's suggestion you can create a Smart album with the criteria:
    1 - Album is "then album you want to use"
    2 - File name does not contain ".mov". OR File Name ends with .jpg.
    This will give you a smart album that will only contain your image files. You can change the album to any other album you want to view as a slideshow.

  • When I search in safari, how do I stop it from quessing what I am typing?

    When searching in Safari, how do I stop it from guessing what I am typing?

    Go to Settings>General>Keyboard>Auto Correct>Off.  This will also turn off spell check. You can also tap the X next to the word that Safari suggests to get rid of the word and keep typing what you want.

  • How do I stop Firefox from playing video after I navigate from the page or leave Firefox?

    Simple and annoying. . Extremely frustrating issue with Firefox for Android. ..
    I watch a YouTube video or any flash video. . And after I hit play, the ONLY way to stop it is to hit pause or let it play to the end or close the tab. .
    It will NOT automatically stop if I open another tab. or if I navigate from Firefox. .
    I feel this is a very basic feature. Did I set something up that was wrong?
    Can I ask two questions?
    I have another extremely annoying and frustrating problem with Firefox for Android.
    The "top" (if you pull down the tabs) search bar DOES NOT allow my stock Samsung keyboard to auto space. . Thus instead of typing
    "How do I stop Firefox from playing video after I navigate from the page or leave Firefox?"
    I'll type in
    "HowdoIstopFirefoxfromplayingvideoafterInavigatefromthepageorleaveFirefox?"
    Unless I manually got the space bar.
    Using a recently factory data reset Samsung Galaxy s4 active.. android 4.2.2 and stock Samsung keyboard ... Firefox 34.0.1
    Thanks in advanced.
    Ps
    I was a hardcore xscope user for years and just recently gave in to Firefox when i lost all my bookmarks due to a forced factory data reset. .

    I'm using a different keyboard which works fine in the most top search bar...
    I cannot believe that it's not a feature.
    What if I was watching a video and wanted to shut it off quickly? I'll have to hit back? Wait for the previous screen to load then hit the power button?
    Please tell me that feature ids soon to come

  • How do I stop the auto generation of previews to imported files?

    In a recent post it was suggested that I do not let Aperture automatically generate the previews to all imported files. I think that is a great idea, but how do I stop the auto generation of such files?
    Under Preferences/Previews I have unchecked the New projects automatically generate previews, but after I do the import the processing wheel continues to spin for quite some time (depending on how many files I imported).
    Thanks in advance.

    Take a look here:
    Pretty much the same in Ap2 and Ap3

  • How can I stop the auto-saving of Pages version 4.1?

    How can I stop the auto-saving of Pages version 4.1?

    Why not just open your eyes !
    Under 10.6.8, we had two menu items :
    Save and Save As…
    Now we have a single Save…
    Since the first delivery of the macintosh,
    a menu item whose name ends with ellipsis is one which always open a dialog.
    Under 10.6.8 and older the Save button was used to save and already saved document without opening a dialog.
    If the document was never saved, it behaved as the Save As… one.
    With Lion the Save feature : save an already saved once document is no longer required as the system autosaved everything.
    There was no reason to keep this aspect of the Save item.
    Remaining tasks are those which were dedicated to the Save As… button.
    The engineers choose to drop one op the now duplicating items.
    The synthesis is the Save… item which clearly state what it is supposed to achieve.
    Triggering it, we may :
    change the name used to save
    change the destination folder
    export as .doc
    export as Pages '08
    Of course there is always the black triangle allowing us to use the stripped dialog or the full one.

  • How do I stop videos playing full screen on iPhone 5c?

    Hi
    I've recently purchased the iPhone 5C and I'm having trouble working out Safari and playing audios. When I click an audio (ie.. a radio programme on download) it immediately expands to full screen and I cannot find a way of going back to the safari screen. I have to keep the audio playing until the end and then it seems to switch back. I know there's probably something really simple I can do to stop videos and use Safari to browse something else, but for the life of me I can't work out what! help please!
    Thanks
    Alun

    OK - so someone sent me a downloadable audio file on dropbox. I clicked "download" and it immediately opened safari and started playing full screen. I couldn't do anything to stop it playing or open a browser window to search. how do I stop this from happening? I can't use safari until the audio has completed and returned to a safari browser screen.

  • How do i stop Itunes auto creating playlists and auto playing imports?

    HELP NEEDED - My PC crashed so i rebuilt with Windows 7, installed the latest itunes and so far so good. I then had to import my music library, first thing i noticed which it never did before, when i import folders it will automatically create a playlist for some of those imports, it doesn't create a playlist for every folder or album only some almost as if the smart playlist option is activated...how do i stop this happening? Second, when i import a folder Itunes autoplays the first song in each folder as it imports so it may play 2 seconds of a song or it may play a full song depending on the size of the folder, very annoying and because i have around 100 GB of music to import very very frustrating.
    Thanks,
    D

    The current build of iTunes (10.4.1.10) appears to have a couple of issues with M3U playlists. The first is that when you import an M3U playlist, the list is created, and any files not already in the library it are added to it, but for some reason they just don't get added to the playlist. Secondly, when adding folders to the library, iTunes is also attempting to add any M3U playlists that it finds as well as any other valid media files not already in the library. The upshot is that iTunes may create a bunch of empty playlists corresponding to any M3U files you have scattered through your folders.
    Use iTunes Folder Watch to scan your media folders for new files (and also for dead tracks) to avoid the issue. This is a more effective way of importing new media than simply adding in the entire media folder over and over again.
    If you already have empty playlists you are struggling to delete manually then I've written a script for just that purpose called KillEmptyPlaylists.
    As and when the time comes that you do want to import an M3U playlist then I have written another script to workaround the current difficulty called ImportM3U which does just what it says. It will also convert and add any WMA files present in the list on the fly whereas iTunes would normally ignore these.
