Actually, I was able to solve the problem. It turns out it was a contacts/iCloud issue, not a birthday calendar issue. The solution was to disable Contacts on iCloud through system preferences on my computer. Then I deleted the contacts info file on my phone in the settings area. Then I added everything back in and Voila - everything was ok on my phone. Apparently it was a syncing glitch with iCloud.

Howdy.
This can depend on which browser you are using.
I normally use SeaMonkey (from Mozilla) and in SeaMonkey's Preferences,
in Helper Applications, there is a list of helper program like Flash
Video. Next to each Helper app is an Action popup menu and one of the
choices is "Always Ask" and this can mean Flash videos won't start
playing automatically.
For Safari, you can open System Preferences > Flash Player and take a
look at the several tabs like Storage, Camera and Mic, Playback, and
Advanced.
Some of these are to control Flash features such as storing files on
your hard drive.
In Safari, when you have a Flash video playing you can do a Right Click
(Control left click) on the video and see a menu of various settings
that you can control.
I've looked and don't see any way to disable auto play for Flash Player
videos in Safari. Perhaps a group member has a suggestion for Safari
or perhaps a Safari extension that might do this.
Google's Chrome, I think, has some kind of extension that lets you
disable auto play of Flash video content.

Howdy.
Are there apps for iPad that will allow the iPad Safari browser to access a business web site that requires JavaSE?
