A small, but annoying, problem using Safari/Google

Sometime after installing Mavericks followed shortly by the demise of iGoogle, I noted that I have not had the use of Search Results Snapback under History when doing web searches. It is greyed out. I find it much more efficient than always having to start over at the Google homepage. I don't know if this is the result of the Mavericks install or the change from iGoogle to Google. Is there a way to get it back?

This has been discussed in several recent topics. Snow Leopard doesn't include these Energy Saver optimizations because their only unique effect is on the 'dynamic power step' clock throttling of Power PC CPU's, which Snow Leopard doesn't support. For Intel CPU's, the Snow Leopard equivalent is the "Restore Defaults" button, which just is a convenient way to set the sleep times & other visible settings in the preference to the Apple-supplied preset system values for the various power sources. The 'power step' equivalent in Intel CPU's is independent of the power source, so there is nothing special for a user to set to optimize it for one or another of them.

Small but annoying junk problem

Hey all,
When I launch Mail, I always see a number next to my Junk mail folder that is from the previous day. I hope I'm making sense - If yesterday, I got 5 emails that went into the Junk folder, I will launch my mail today and see the same number 5 next to the box, even if there are none (Mail is set to delete Trash and Junk after quitting).
So, this is a small but annoying problem. I would like Mail to tell me the true number of Junk messages I have.
Anyone know the answer?
Thanks!!

I never got into stickies but many folks use it. I use OmniOutliner Pro for my to-do lists. I like the check box function and how you can nest related tasks. There may be some free stuff out there too but I thought that may help you a bit.

Posting problem using safari or firefox with IMAC

Can anybody help with the following issue. I can access the labs.macromedia website, I can access the Light room posting board. But signing in using safari or firefox on a imac is troublesome and takes several minutes and is half of the time unsuccesful. When trying to post, the signing in screen shows up and asks for e-mail address and password, no problem after pressing the button "continue" the system hangs for so long that safari reports a time out. I have no problems with other websites on the same imac machine I have tried this whole routine on a windows machines from the same location and internet connection set up and no problems at all. A report from another safari user shows also no problem at all. I assume that it is a combination of safari/firefox, this website and my machine settings. Probably I have to change something on the settings for safari or firefox or Imac, but I don't know what. Is there any experience with same problems and a solution out there?
Regards
Iemke

Got to be honest and say this is really, really frustrating!
Am I the only person who cannot view trailers at Apple's website, even with their browser?

When ever I try to watch any video, from a link or YouTube say, using Firefox, I get a message 'An error as occurred. Please try again later'. It has been this way for some weeks. I don't have this problem using Safari or Opera.

I believe that our “Werbung problem” adds an additional second hyperlink to the pop-up window. This second link is activated whenever you trigger a saved hyperlink to a Mail.com site.
I had the same problem and eliminated it by deleting all bookmarks, hyperlinks and automatic links that take firefox to a mail.com address. So I just deleted all bookmarks I had saved for mail.com. I also changed my home page link because it also went to my email at mail.com. I then did a warm boot, opened firefox and re-saved my bookmarks and homepage to the desired addresses. Good luck.

Further, if you are not in your home cellular carrier's area, you need to set Settings > General > Cellular > Data Roaming = "On".

Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder.

Small but annoying Stickies problem

I use Stickies as a to-do list. When I have a bunch of things that I want to add all at once, I use keyboard shortcuts to make a bunch of Stickies windows. After typing in the to-do list, I have to manually resize every window so it doesn't waste screen space. Since then, I found out about the Window -> Arrange By option, but they minimize all of the Stickies, and the font is too small to read. So my questions are:
1. Is there some way to make the Stickies grab-bar bigger?
2. Or, is there a fit-to-text auto-resize option?
3. Or, should I forget about Stickies altogether and use a third-party application?

Cookie problem using safari

Hi all!
I seem to have a cookie problem on Safari on my iPhone. This makes that it's very difficult for me to Ise forums, Google Reader, etc. I tried all three settings but apparently Safari doesn't store my cookies.
Anybody else have this problem? I'm using firmware 1.1.4.
Thanks,
Ton.

The first step you should take is a reset of the phone to potentially clear up the problem. To do this, hold the home button and the top button simultaneously until you see the apple logo. If this doesn't cure the problem, a restore is in order, and this can be accomplished from iTunes. First try a restore from backup. If this doesn't work, you can do a restore to factory from iTunes, which should clear up the problem if the prior steps haven't worked.

Burned Image on screen, but only when using Safari

I have a burned image on my IPhone's screen, but only when I use Safari. Additionally, when I open Safari's multiple window viewer feature, the image is there as well. The home screen and every other app is unaffected. Turning off and on the phone does nothing to fix the problem.
I know removing the casing and battery is an adventure, so I am trying to avoid it if I can.
Can anyone think of a way to fix this problem?
Thanks for the help.

Troubleshoot Safari extensions ..
From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.

Mac OSX, since Firefox upgrade 22 July can only access old version of my virgin email upgraded in May but all ok using Safari. I have reinstalled Firefox from Safari no joy

On 22 July Firefox was upgraded on my Mac using OSX. This morning 23 July I cannot access my Virgin Cable email properly. Virgin email was upgraded in early 2010 but I can now only access 3 emails dated 19th May 2010 showing the old style email format. Safari is OK and accesses the email correctly. I have reinstalled Firefox this morning using Safari but the problem still occurs.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Firefox upgraded

Yes, it will do no harm, but it is meant for trouble shooting and you should not have to use it all the time.

Problem using safari

Hey Yall,
Every so often while we (happens to my wife on hers as well) are using Safari the screen will go black and then go to the home/main page and completely close safari. Why does this happen? We both have the 2nd gen Itouch

What does that do? Is there a problem with the program or is my history file too full?
Thanks

Two small but annoying 4.2.1 problems

I see some people are having really serious issues with WiFi and syncing and full-on device failure. The problems my iPod Touch is having are minor by comparison, but still annoying.
Problem 1 is the album art. I've never had any problems with the album art. But now there are some albums for which the art displays correctly when the iPod is on, but I'm listening in standby mode and hit the Home button, all I get is my wallpaper. The really weird thing is that this is happening ONLY to albums which I've tagged and added album art in iTunes SINCE THE 4.2.1 UPDATE. All the albums that were already on the iPod continue to display fine in both modes.
Problem 2 is videos tagged as TV Shows. They also always worked just fine, but since the 4.2.1 update not only can I not sort them by episode number, the iPod doesn't even seem to SEE the episode number - every video in the iPod is labeled "Episode 0". But all the info displays correctly in iTunes.
These problems aren't the end of the world, they're just annoying. But if anyone else is having these problems and knows how to correct them (or at least if they've been seen elsewhere and are being addressed by Apple) I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

Hi there,
I've got a 3G 16GB and seem to have a similar problem. I've installed 4.2.1 and my GPS is not working. Triangulation is working, but I can't get a lock with the GPS. I've done some research on the net and it seems many are experiencing this. I've tried many suggested methods to fix it but nothing is working. If you find anything out please let me know! Is triangulation working for you?
Thanks!

I can no longer open up any links on emails to any website. It just takes me to firefox but keeps the last page I was looking at. No problem using Safari however. ONly has happened since last update

I have an imac and using lastest firefox update. No links open to any website using firefox when I click on link on email. No difference if I right click and choose to open the link either

Hi Olivier,
Thanks very much for that. it worked on my powerbook(running Tiger). I went to the link and followed the instructions and it worked. Did i mention that my dad who has a iMac running Leopard now has the same problem. I thought i would just do the same but the Preference in Mail for Leopard is of course different. There is no icon called "Server Settings" under Accounts section like there is on mine. Do you have a link for the same kind of instructions for Leopard?
Thanks again,
Bryce

Small but annoying key problem

Hey guys, has anyone ever found with a key that it makes a weird noise i don't know how to describe it i think it's a friction sound, if so what have they done? I get it with the 'a' key and a slightly squeaky space bar.
Thanks all.

Yeah, I know, he's not specific. Go through the preferences anyway and see if one of them could be the culprit. Here's another strategy: save a copy of your preferences in a hidey hole some where and then delete your current preference file. Logic will reinitialize a new default preference file as you run through the setup assistant. If the stuck note goes away, you'll know it was in there somewhere, if not, you could always put your original pref file back. That's all I got, dude. - Emile
