Turn off videos in safari?

Someone asked me if there is a way to turn off or block videos that are shown in safari other than the safari prefs which cannot be locked? This person wants to stop their children from accessing videos in safari.
thx

Thank you, Kevin. On my old, very-limited WAP phone I would go to [mobile.cnn.com|http://mobile.cnn.com], which refuses to load on a regular web browser (including the iPhone, of course). [cnnmobile.com|http://cnnmobile.com] works great when loaded from the iPhone. That solves my immediate problem.
A [Google search|http://www.google.com/search?q=iphone+bookmarklets] does turn up a lot about bookmarklets on the iPhone. I guess I'll have to do some research.
My original point is valid, though. An iPhone stuck on EDGE should have an easy option to turn off graphics. I'm sending [iPhone Feedback|http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html] to Apple and would encourage others to do so.

  • Turn off TLS in Safari?

    Hi,
    I asked this over in the Safari for Windows forum as well.
    Is there a way to turn off TLS in Safari like you can in IE or Firefox?

    No idea what that is.
    Hopefully someone will be along who does.

  • After turning off private browsing Safari crashes immediately upon launch.

    After turning off private browsing Safari crashes immediately upon launch. I tried soft-resetting, and clearing my cookies and cache. I basically launches in private browsing mode and then immediately tries to switch to regular browsing. When the screen changes, it crashes to desktop.
    Any ideas, other than wiping my iPad?
    (I'm using iOS 5, of course, but it is not available under the Operating System dropdown in this forum)

    I'm seeing the same problem, and it was repeatable for me.  iPad (original 3G, 64GB), iOS 5.  (There are now a couple threads with this same problem.)
    Once the crashes start, it would continue to crash every time I tried to bring up Safari.  It crashes just as it finishes showing the tool bars, but before any content is displayed.
    Manually killing the app did not make the problem go away.
    One time, shutting down and restarting the iPad fixed it, but that solution did not work the next time I went in and out of Private browsing.  Also, once the crashing begins, going back into Private browsing did not stop the crashing.
    The last time it got into the crashing condition, I stopped the crashing by turning off the setting to display the Bookmark bar.  Strange!
    I have like 20 Safari crash logs that I hope will get auto-sent to Apple sometime today (I reenabled the send data to Apple option).

  • How to turn off TLS in Safari?

    Can anyone tell me where I can turn off TLS in Safari (either Windows version or OS X version)?
    Thanks.

    "Hone Melgren , not sure what your talking about, that command you posted is for the Beta version, not the final release."
    You appear to be misunderstanding me here.
    http://swedishcampground.com/safari-4-hidden-preferences
    The hidden preferences to turn stuff on and off in Safari 4 beta (including coverflow) were found by running a strings command on the Safari binary and running it through grep to find keywords. The URL I've posted is one from one of the people to first find out about it.
    Thats what I meant by the command I linked above - the strings command isn't finding your keyword of "DebugSafari4IncludeFlowViewInBookmarksView" in the Safari binary. Therefore your "fix" for Safari Final will not work.
    This is confirmed by many people who are attempting to get the tabs back on top by using the same terminal commands to get stuff back they had in Safari 4 beta. And all the commands are not working.
    Are you sure you have Safari 4 Final ? I'm going to test your Fix now BTW just to be sure

  • Turning Off Video

    Is there a way to temporarily turn off video in final cut, so that when I'm working in a timeline with unrendered effects, I can work faster. Having the computer try to render these files in real time slows me down, and there are times when I don't need to be monitoring video. I used to use avid, and I could do this by tunring off the video monitoring buttons in the timeline, but in final cut, this can cause you to loose render files.
    Thanks!

    In the RT menu in the upper left of the timeline, there is an option called PLAY BASE LAYER ONLY. If you have clips with effects on them that aren't rendered, FCP will play that clip without showing the effect and without showing the UNRENDERED warning. This is handy if you add filters that take forever to render, but then you want to review the cut before you render.

  • Firefox keeps crashing. Turned off video acceleration.

    So I have turned off video acceleration. Back dated my video drivers. Uninstalled and reinstalled firefox. It crashes every 30-45 min. Firefox ran just fine prior to the update to 25. What changed? I dont have many tabs open and I use it to download drivers for other computers all the time.

  • How do I turn off autocomplete in Safari

    I am using Safari 5.0.1 on a Win7 64-bit PC.  I have several major problems with this. 
    One is a petty annoyance, perhaps, but it drives me up the wall!  I CANNOT turn off the autocomplete when I am in the address bar.  I DO NOT USE AUTOCOMPLETE, and don't like it.  It interferes with my typing and concentration.
    DO NOT TELL ME to use it.  I refuse.
    I need to know how to turn it off!  I can do it in both IE and Firefox, so why can't I do it in Safari?

  • After turning off Location Services, Safari keeps saying to turn back on

    I turn off "Location Services" often to save battery power, and at night I often turn on "Airplane Mode", (which I must say is most convenient to turn all radios, (GPS, Bluetooth, Phone, Wifi, Push), at once. However, Safari continues to often send a pop up saying, "turn on location services to allow "safari" to determine your location". Not only is this pop up annoying, but I often listen to several of the rainmaker apps as I fall asleep and this notification continously shuts down my rainmaker app. I have tried to find a way to stop Safari from doing this but am getting no where. Does anyone else have this problem and is there a way to stop Safari from sending repeated prompts? This has always happened but is happening more so since using Google Latitude, which I do have completely turned off and signed out of. Thanks

    Cannot see why Safari is bugging you. 1) it is closed thus shouldn't be needing anything since apps don't run in the background. 2) Safari shouldn't ask for your location (unless specific page is asking).
    I'd say reboot as it sounds like something is stuck in memory.
    A reset/reboot is:
    Go to Home Screen
    Press and Hold Home Button
    Keep holding and press and hold Lock Button
    Keep holding Both
    You will see Slide to Turn Off (Don't let go to slide, just keep holding)
    The phone will turn off (in time, but screen will look like it has some white lines)
    Keep Holding
    When you see the Apple Logo, you can let go.

  • How can I turn off alert that Safari downloaded this application?

    A simple question, with what I'm sure will be a simple answer, but I just can't work it out. I have only just bought an iMac, running Leopard. Using Safari, I downloaded Firefox. Now every time I open Firefox, I receive an alert that says something like "You are about to open Firefox which is an application Safari downloaded from the internet". Usually with these sort of alerts there's a box that you can check that says "don't remind me about this again", but not so in this case.
    Where do I go, please, to turn off this alert. As friendly as it is, I don't feel I need to be reminded that I downloaded this application from the internet via Safari, every time I open it up...
    Many thanks.

    Security.
    You can check a box in Safari preferences to open "Safe" files after downloading but Applications are not one of them.

  • Can't turn off video preview.

    I like to view my folders and files in the "column" style. Back on Snow Leopard, in Finder when I would click on a video file, the preview column would appear. Originally, when it would appear, it would begin to load a preview of whatever video I'd clicked, and I found when it did this it would stall/freeze my computer for a few seconds, which I found annoying. Luckily you could click on the arrow next to "Preview" and it would hide the preview video and stop it from loading, therefore stopping the freezes.
    However, now that I've moved to Mountain Lion, I can no longer hide that preview, so every time I click on a video in Finder, it starts up a preview and everything freezes, and there's no little arrow so I can't hide it.
    I did find the option to completely hide the preview column, but I don't want to do that because there's a lot of information about files in the preview column (name, size, modified etc.). So, is there any way I can just turn off the video preview like I could before?
    Thanks!

  • Turn Off Video Camera Stabilizer?

    After reviewing a video I'd recorded on my iPhone 4S, I noticed that the camera seemed to be stabilizing the video, since I had moved the camera around while recording.
    If anyone has ever used the "stabilizing" feature when editing a video on YouTube, they notice how the new "stabilized" video has a somewhat choppy fluidity, because the feature is trying to balance out the movements of your camera. It sometimes, in my opinion, ends up looking worse before you tried to stabilize the video.
    Anyhow, I noticed the same stabilizing-type feature when reviewing my video on the iPhone. Except, I didn't turn on any stabilizing feature and I'm wondering if iPhone video recorders are made with an auto-stabilizer. And if so, is it possible to turn off? And how?

    Hi jihanemo,
    I'm not sure if the stabilization feature is an option that can be turned off. I've roughly checked my phones settings and saw no setting to disable it. Since I think the stabilization feature is part of the software within iOS, you might have better luck using a third party application from the app store that doesn't stabilize videos or images.
    I hope this helps, if not please don't hesitate to ask! I don't mind

  • Turn off video output

    Hello,
    I want to know if there is a way of turning off one of the two video outputs while they are both connected. I have one with my lcd monitor, and the other with the lcd tv only used when watching movies. But even with the tv off, it seems that still consumes video ram, and the system acts like it were in use. So I want to know if I can turn it off from the preferences while still connected.
    Thanks,
    Luciano

    The power switch on some displays do work like that, meaning when the monitor is powered off, the Mac treats it as if it has been disconnected. But not all monitors work like that. If that isn't the way yours are working, unfortunately I don't know any other way to make it work outside of unplugging the display's video connection from the mini.

  • Problem turning off video`s...sound continues to play

    Hi, I am experiencing a problem when turning off a video and switching to listening to music - the sound continues to play over the music track or audiobook - is anyone else experiencing this problem? The only way I can get round it is by pressing the next/fast forward button....but then of course when I want to watch the remainder of the video it restarts from the beginning, not from where I left off! Any help would be appreciated.

    On a group video call, can people with slow internet connections not only turn off their cameras, but also the video feeds from everyone else?

    No; there is no provision within the Skype software to perform the action you describe.
