Try to download mp4 and quicktime wants to run it instead, how do I stop this?

I have several sites where I download weekly and monthly videos, but after installing Quicktime, it wants to run them now instead when I click the download link. The only way I have found to prevent this is to disable the plugin, but that is a pain, because I installed it so I could go to a guitar training site that uses midi.
If I set it to "Save File" in Firefox>Tools>Options>Applications, it still does no good, the plugin has to be disabled, or Quicktime will play it instead of letting me download it.
I know I can right click and select "Save As", but I shouldn't have to do this, I want the Fox to work the way it is suppose to!
Besides, some sites do not allow "Right Clicking!"

Have you tried iTunes for Mac version 10.6.3.25? It won't work with an iPhone 5, but it supports older devices using iOS 6.0, on PowerPC and Leopard (10.5.8) systems.
A .dmg installer for iTunes version 10.6.3.25 for Mac OS can be found at the following download page on the Apple website:
iTunes 10.6.3

How do I remove Facebook contacts from my Contacts list on my 4S??? I've already gone into iCloud settings and Facebook is not even an option to turn off and I've gone into "Groups" in my contact list and Facebook is not there either. How do I stop this

Hmmmm...maybe try deleting them again (I know it's a pain) and then doing a manual icloud backup (unless you already did this). Icloud may be putting them back on there. I never allowed FB to put the contacts on my phone lol. Also try going into Privacy and Contacts...make sure FB isn't on in there. Might be a few other spots to check under settings to make sure too. And...you might want to try deleting the FB app, do a icloud backup, and then reinstall FB

HT5624 My husband and I share an Itunes account so use the same email address and password. Our iphones are now connected and we get each other's messages and share each other's contacts. How can we stop this happening?

My husband and I share an Itunes account so use the same email address and password. Our iphones are now connected and we get each other's messages and share each other's contacts. How can we stop this happening?

A couple of different approached:
Create a second AppleID for one of you that includes the email address and phone number you wish to use for messaging, but do not apply it to the iTunes and app store (just keep the current one). My wife and I do this and it works quite well. Also allows for easier syncing of Contacts , notes etc. using icloud if you wish to do that.
Add additional emails/phone numbers to the existing account and change the Send/Receive settings for Messages. this will not fix the Contcts isues for you however.

How do you update it? Basically what has happened my password was disabled for "security reasons" on sunday (21/10/12), so i tried to reset it, but for some reason i couldnt get into my old email (probably because i havent used it for 2 years), so i read on here i could swap it to a new email that i currently use (which is what i have done) ive swapped everythin over to it (facetime, iCloud etc) but keeps coming up with old email and asking for password

Hi Amanda,
Software applications are usually installed in the Applications folder on the Macintosh HD and are accessible to all users.
I would advise you to check the Applications folder and see if your software is in there.
Next step would be to Control Click or Right Click on the application and choose "Get Info" and make sure the permissions are set to "Read & Write" for all users. The article below provides more details:

You may need to contact Adobe Support if this does not resolve your issue:

Sounds like your sharing the same apple id. settings - message - send&receive - make sure the cell number is the default for both phones.

My Apple TV deletes downloaded movies/series before I've watched them. How do I stop this?

My Apple TV sometimes deletes downloaded movies/series before I've watched them. How do I stop the episodes /movies being deleted before I watch them?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Downloads are deleted to make room for something else or when the device is turned off, if you don't want your downloads removing, you need to avoid doing one of the things that will cause this.

When I close Firefox it asks me if I want to clear history. How do I stop this from happening?

Whenever I close Firefox it asks if I want to clear the history and gives me a list of options. How do I stop this from happening?

Firefox doesn't show such a dialog by default, so it might have been added by an installed extension.
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.

This is not s joke...and it is so annoying. When I try to text "LOL", it automatically auto-corrects to read "Eat my poop ; )". Does anyone know how I can stop this?

Someone played a prank on you and entered a keyboard shortcut to change lol to something else. Your can delete that shortcut in Settings > General > Keyboard > Shortcuts

Generally all you need to do is fill in an appropriate Album Artist. For more details see my article on Grouping Tracks Into Albums, in particular the topic One album, too many covers.

Are you syncing your phone with iTunes and then with iCloud? This can cause duplicates. Sync with one or the other, but not both.
