Videos in a Safari page start automatically at openning

Since a few weeks, when I open a page in Safari, if there is one or more videos in this page, they all start to run automatilcally. I have to stop each of them to stop the cacophony. It was not like that before. I dont know what I did to have this problem.
How to stop this?
Thank you.

Randomly here is a page :
http://www.cawa.fr/le-groupe-bilderberg-article003895.html
In this page theare are 3 videos. With Safari, all three start running at the opening of the page.
I've tried with Chrome, and there, the videos do not start.
I use Mac OS 10.8.5 and Safari 6.0.5
Thanks.

How do I make .pdf safari pages, download automatically?

I don't know when it began, whether it is the internet, or Safari 3, but now many websites take you to pages that are pdf pages. This is great if you want to view the file/item which is in pdf format, but don't want to download it to you computer and create clutter on your hard drive. However, I have found that for some reason it takes eons for my computer to load pages that are pdf pages. And sometimes, the spinning beach ball does not stop spinning and I have to quit Safari.
Questions:
- Why is it so slow to load?
- Is there a way I can get web pages that are pdf pages to load more quickly?
- Alternatively, is it possible, when I click on a link that will be a pdf page, to override it loading in the Safari browser and instead have it download to my desktop? This is how these pages/pdfs used to work for me in the past and it's a system that works well for me.
Thanks.

Open the Terminal in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder and run:
defaults write com.apple.Safari WebKitOmitPDFSupport -bool YES
Quit and restart Safari.

Without touching the pad the pages start automatically...mail images etc....can't stop them

is it broken?

Try this .....Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Not sure that it will work, but it hurts nothing and it is a good place to start.

Having issue with safari not starting when I open it. I am having this issue with iOS 7 on both a iPhone 4S and 5.

Have successfully updated 2 items and Safari the last both are having issues. Safari opens but then stalls. I have reset and restored the iPhone and I am seeing the same issues.

I just tested this on my wife's phone and you are right. I tested it time and again, changing the vibrate to ON and OFF and it consistently reproduces the problem, in line with the vibrate being on or off. You are a genius lol.
I had this issue on my phone too, but it disappeared when I followed the advice of a Genius.
When I asked my local Genius, he said it was a software issue and that a Restore followed by Create a new iPhone would remove the faulty/corrupted file that is causing the issue. He specified not to restore from backup, as the problem might still be resident within the backup.
I did this, and it seemed to work on her phone. Then it reappeared, so I'm still not sure what's going on. But your discovery defnitely holds true for her phone. My one seems to be okay regardless of the vibrate on or off now, even though I did exactly the same restore procedure on mine.

My Qosmio X870 always starts once I open the lid

My Toshiba Qosmio X870 always automatically switches on once I open the lid, _even though I disabled this function in the Toshiba system settings_.
What can I do to open the lid of my laptop without causing it to switch on automatically?

Hi
Did you follow also the instruction as described here:?

Have you tried a Reset (No Data will be Lost)
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

Quicktime won't launch in Safari when click HD videos on Apple Trailer page

Hi everyone, good day,
Try to search the forum for a similar topic, and cannot find it, I apologize if someone else has already asked this.
I bought my new Macbook Air 11" 2 weeks ago, it worked fine before, but all of a sudden, whenever I go to Apple's Trailer page, and click on the HD videos under "download" tab, which in the past would launch QT and play, but now nothing happens. I waited and waited and QT never launches.
I created a new "CLEAN" account, and did the same, and it works perfectly, QT launched in less than a second when I click on a HD video from the trailer page.
Any ideas guys and gals?
Howard

I've got the same problem on a MacBook Air. The "download" links work in Firefox, but not in Safari (latest version).
Guess some links have been broken, just don't know how to fix it.

Safari starts automatically when restarting (Snow Leopard)

Two days ago, Safari began to start automatically when restarting the system (iMac, Snow Leopard). I checked in Accounts>Login Item and it doesn't appear there. I also right-clicked the icon in the dock and the option to open when starting session was disabled.
¿Anyone knows how to solve it?
Thanks in advance.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
As Guest, launch the application(s) and test. Same problem(s)?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on some Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.) Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

Every time I open a new Safari page, it loads the one(s) that are already open, instead of taking me to a new start page.

Every time I open a new Safari page on my MacBook Pro, it load the one(s) that are already open, instead of a new page. it's 8.0.2. I already went to Preferences and it says new page will open to Favorites....but it doesn't.

Hello beany1818,
Also check in Safari Preferences and look in the Safari Opens with and make sure that it is set to “with a new window” and not “all the windows from your last session”. Take a look at the article for more information.

My Safari on start up now reverts to last opened page. Can I change this back to opening on my homepage?

Hi
When I open Safari (Version 6.0.2 (7536.26.17)) now it opens the last page I was on prior to last closure of Safari. It used to open on my homepage (Apple.com) and I would prefer this to be reinstated. ANy ideas how to do this?? I have set Safari preferences to homepage etc.....
Thanks
Paul

Thanks so much Paul for trying to help! I think I am not being clear, and perhaps i have a different issue than the OP.
My problem is that each time i open safari, the same 3 tabs open, same 3 webpages, no matter what i do. whether i reset, change preferences, uncheck boxes, etc. Doesn't matter.
The suggestions you gave should work, in theory, so perhaps i have another issue. I don't know.
i can still use safari with no other issues, so i'll leave it for now, unless someone else comes up with another idea!
thanks again!

Since updating to 10.9.2 iTunes starts automatically when watching movies via Safari, that annoys

Hi
since the most recent update, iTunes starts automatically. I can quit iTunes at least 10 times since it finally stops to launch.
Any idea, why?
thanks in advance

Thanks for your helpful hint, but unfortunatly it did not solve the problem. I know, its rather difficult to explain:
I use the same order on MacBook Pro & Mac Mini (sorted by name in descending order). Both display the photos in iphoto correct as follows:
"20111009 London
20111008 Festival
20110924 Marriage
20110820 Summer
20110617 Italy
20110524 Spring
...etc...
20030101 Wintertrip"
But on apple tv 2 - only when using the Mac Mini as the source - the order is wrong like this (on apple tv 2):
"20110924 Marriage
20110820 Summer
20110617 Italy
20110524 Spring
...etc...
20030101 Wintertrip
20111008 Festival
20111009 London"
Using my MacBook Pro as source for the apple tv 2: everything is fine, the sort order on my apple tv 2 is correct. I imported "20111008 Festival" and "20111009 London" both after the update to iOS5, when I returned from London. I updated my Mac Mini, MacBook Pro and my apple tv 2 (ios5, iphoto 9.2 and iTunes 10.5).
I did another test and changed the sort order on the Mac Mini to be sorted by date and in ascending order. This had no effect to the way the photos are displayed on apple tv 2. The photos are still displayed wrong as described above ("20111008 Festival" and "20111009 London" are put to the very end). It seems, as if apple tv 2 does simple ignore the sort order given by Mac Mini. On apple tv 2 I have to scroll down to the very end to watch my Festival photos and my London photos.
I have two apple tv 2 and the problem is just the same. This is why I thought it might be a problem of my Mac Minis iphoto library or the way it is transmitted via iTunes.

ITunes 10., dont starts automaticly & video-podcasts only sound works ???

Upgrading to iTunes 10.1 on my MBP (MacOS 10.6.5) i got two problems:
first, itunes dont starts automaticly anymmore, when connecting iPhone 3GS(iOS 4.2.1). Starting Itunes manually, iPhone-sync starts and works well??? The "dont sync automaticly"-button in iTunes setup is not set!
sec.: iTunes 10.1 dont play videopodcasts anymore. Only sound is o.k. The podast itself is o.k.and vissibale with other tools and after syncing, iPhone shows them, too.
Any Tips?
greetings to all
A. Gehrmann

Mine did something very similar - when I tried to search, I got a message saying that it couldn't contact the iTunes Store. I uninstalled it and reinstalled it, and afterwards it worked, but the fix might have had nothing to do with that uninstall/reinstall. I wasn't able to contact the iTunes Store through my iPod either, and that didn't work for a while even after the reinstall. Then eventually it ran correctly as well.
I'm inclined to believe that there was something wrong at iTunes, not on my end. Have you tried again recently? Hopefully it'll be working again, like mine is.
