A website is opening in my sidebar when I don't want it to. What gives

my personal website is opening in the sidebar all of a sudden and I didn't fill in any box asking it to do so. what gives?
== This happened ==
A few times a week
== this past week

Opening in the side bar is the default for bookmarks that are created via a link or button on a website.
You can check the Properties of a bookmark via the right-click context menu in the side bar (Cmd+B).
In the Bookmarks Manager (Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks) you can click the More button in the Details pane at the bottom right.
Make sure that '''"Load this bookmark in the side bar"''' is not selected.

  • Bookmarks that have both a keyword assigned to them and are set to open in the sidebar will not open in the sidebar when keyword is entered in the location bar. Why?

    I am using version 3.6.10. Windows 7.
    But I have had this problem for years.
    Have the same result in a clean installation.
    Have the same result in XP, also in a clean installation.
    When creating a bookmark, you have the option to
    1. add a KEYWORD, and
    2.the option to check the box that says "load this bookmark in the sidebar."
    If a bookmark has BOTH a keyword assigned to it AS WELL AS a checked box to "load this bookmark in the sidebar", then
    1. it WILL NOT open in the sidebar when the keyword is entered in the locationbar.
    2.It WILL open in the sidebar if you click on the bookmark directly from the bookmark menu, toolbar, or the like.
    Is there any plan to fix this? Is there an extension to fix this? A patch to fix this?
    It's kind of ridiculous that such a bug still exists.
    more and more tech sites are advocating the time saving qualities of being able to load mobile and iphone sites in the sidebar - like gmail, google calendar, twitter, facebook chat, igoogle gadgets, widgets, meebo, and almost every other site either via it's mobile version or by converting an igoogle gadget or just using and iframe. it makes me nuts that I have to shove all my bookmarks that are sidebar-loading to be within view on the bookmark toolbar. help!

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • When i want to return to my home page I click on the home icon and it resets the page to my home page but also open a blak tab which i don't want how can I stop this as i have too many tabs open.

    When I want to return to my home page after looking at a website I click on the home icon and it resets the page to my home page but also open a blak tab which i don't want.How can I stop this as I have too many tabs open and have to close all of them.

    You may have an unwanted extension that is modifying sites (or the toolbar area). Try this:
    Disable ALL nonessential or unrecognized extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
    * Ctrl+Shift+a
    * orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable.
    Usually a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
    Does that flush the tab?
    Please report back on anything suspicious you find so others can learn about its bad behavior.

  • How can I prevent Magic Mouse from scrolling horizontally when I don't want it to?

    I recently purchased a Magic Mouse to go with OS 10.6 Snow Leopard. It's a great mouse but it causes 2 problems:
    If I leave it on "Scroll with interia" in System Preferences/Mouse, it scrolls horizontally when I don't want it to.  Since I mostly work in Word documents, I often lose my place in the document this way. On the other hand, checking "Scroll without inertia" makes vertical scrolling, which I do all the time, a lot harder.
    The mouse seems to cause what I think of as "fractures" in Word documents--words and parts of sentences will disappear or get crunched together , then reappear when I select the place where they vanished.  They also reappear if I scroll vertically to get the problem area off the screen and then return to it. This wastes a lot of time at best; at worst, I'm afraid I'll lose work.  The problem occurred once in a while with a Logitech bluetooth mouse I was using, but not as bad and not all the time.
    I love the mouse's ergonomics and would like to keep it, but if I can't solve this problem, I'll have to return it.  Would be very, very grateful for any tips!  Thanks.

    Always nervous about recommending sites I have no personal experience of.  On the plus side it doesn't relate to any of the bad sites I am familiar with and it appears to be the developer's site ... but there is no contact point for you to ask questions.  You said in your initial post it was to go with Snow Leopard but this version says it is meant for 10.7 and above.   Did you notice that?   I also notice several other references to Word and mouse and one person found the solution lay in the updating of word 2011 to its highest level.   I can offer no more.

  • Why Does Save As-PDF/A reduce file size when I don't want it to?

    I scanned a 4-paged printed card with my Epson Perfection 4490 scanner in order to digitally archive it. Each page is about 5x7 inches, and I scanned at 100 percent. I scanned each page as an individual TIFF image file, at 600 samples per inch.
    I brought each TIFF image file into Photoshop one at a time. I saved each TIFF as a JPEG, at Quality: 8, Baseline ("Standard").
    Then, I brought the JPEG's into Adobe Acrobat Pro to create a 4-paged PDF. Initially, the file size of the saved 4-paged PDF was 5 MB. (Later, I determined the individual JPEG's add up to 5.2 MB.) When saving as PDF/A, the final format that I want to use, the file size was unexpectedly reduced from 5 MB to 2.5 MB.
    What is the reason for the file size being reduced to 2.5 MB? I had already done the compression that I wanted in Photoshop. The PDF was not downsampled. I purposely did not use Optimizer.
    I did a test. This time, in Photoshop, I compressed each TIFF to JPEG, at Quality: 5, Baseline ("Standard"), the Medium setting instead of the High setting. After bringing these JPEG's into Adobe Acrobat Pro, the saved 4-paged PDF was 2.8 MB in size, an expected smaller size. Saving as PDF/A produced a file of 2.6 MB in size, very close to the same size this time, possibly indicating it accepting the Medium quality level.
    Apparently, saving as PDF/A reduces the quality level of JPEG's to Medium quality, when they are of higher quality to begin with. It seems to be designed to optimize even when I don't want it to.

    Here's the Audit Space Usage for the original 5 MB file. It shows the images taking up the majority of the space, as expected:

  • Iam using a table in numbers to plot daily graph lines. If I fill a cell with a text box  at say zero it plots the graph. I can't actually set the cell value until the actual day but the graph plots it at zero when I don't want it to plot anything. Is tho

    I am using a table in Numbers to plot daily graph lines. Mood swings of how I am on the day, i"m a depressive.
    If I fill a cell with a step box at say zero it plots the graph. I can't actually set the cell value until the actual day but the graph plots it at zero when I don't want it to plot anything. Is there a work around. so thatbgraph only plots on the day?

    The answer is (sort of) in your subject, but edited out of the problem statement in the body of your message.
    When you use a stepper or a slider, the value in the cell is always numeric, and is always placed on the chart if that cell is included in the range graphed by the chart.
    But if you use a pop-up menu cell, you can specify numeric or text values in the list of choices for in the menu. Numeric values will be shown on the chart. Text values will not.
    For the example, the values list for the pop-up menu was:
    5
    3
    1
    Choose
    -1
    -3
    -5
    The first pop-up was set to display Choose, then the cell was filled down the rest of the column. Any text value (including a single space, if you want the cell to appear blank) may be used instead of Choose.
    For charts with negative Y values, the X axis will not automatically appear at Y=0. If your value set will include negative values, I would suggest setting the Y axis maximum and minimum to the maximum and minimum values on your menu list, rather than letting Numbers decide what range to include on the chart. Place a line shape across the chart at the zero level, and choose to NOT show the X axis.

    In Illustrator, I have a saved artwork, then I'm saving a copy as PDF, as usual.
    After I keep the AI file open, making some modifications which I don't want to save, so I close the file and click "Don't Save".
    Even though I clicked that, the file's modification time is changing.
    (The modifications I made are not there, so it's not really saving but why the date is changing then?)
    Please find the cause of it! Thank you!

    All I can suggest is that you open that file on the MBA and save it as a new file, then see if you can open the new one on the iMac.

  • How do I stop the screen from magnifying or zooming in when I don't want it to?

    The screen keeps enlarging when I don't want it to.  How can I turn off this function in Lion?

    There are a few ways to get the screen to "enlarge", so it depends on what you are doing to make it happen.
    For example, on a trackpad you can double-tap (not click) with two fingers to zoom in web pages.  Or you can slide two fingers in a spreading out fashion to zoom in.
    Do you have any notion about what you are doing when the undesired enlarging occurs?

  • How do I turn off Firefox checking for updates (I am fed up with Firefox continually asking to update when I don't want to due to previous bad experiences)

    I would like to turn off firefox checking for updates
    I don't want to update due to previous bad experiences with updates (version 4 and version 5)
    I am frustrated by being reminded on a daily basis to update when I don't want to

    Use
    *'''Firefox button -> Options -> |Advanced | -> |Update|''' and uncheck the update option, or opt to ask first.
    * see [[Options window - Advanced panel#w_update-tab]]_update-tab
    * and to downgrade
    **[[installing a previous version of Firefox]]
    ** and the download itself [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html]
    Also note that currently
    * firefox 3.6 is still supported, and has had recent security updates
    * plans are to continue supporting it despite any comment on the download page
    **(not sure how long for but see https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/Planning/2011-09-07#Questions.2C_Comments.2C_FYI ) confirming continuing support for Firefox 3.6
    * Firefox 3.6 has updated with security fixes, so is I think now 3.6.22 ; but it is NOT currently trying to upgrade its users to the current firefox release (Firefox 6)

  • Why am I always forced to upgrade Firefox when I don't want to?

    I asked this question once b4, & never got a response. Probably because Firefox sucks royally, & they're afraid to answer my question. I'm always forced to upgrade Firefox when I don't want to. I get this stupid little pop-up for 1-4 days saying the new version is available. I ignore it, & without warning upon starting up my computer, Firefox upgrades itself. First of all, I F'ING H8 THAT! Second of all, I WANT TO MAKE THE BLOODY CHOICE WHETHER OR NOT I WANT ANOTHER SUBSTANDARD FIREFOX UPGRADE!! The ONLY reason I stay w/Firefox is that IE sucks even more, & you can't play any Facebook games w/IE. Firefox dev's, I realize I'm just an insignificant user & you don't really care about any of us, but really, must you force us to upgrade? Hmmm, I may just move on over to Chrome.

    You can turn off automatic updates, for details see the "Configuring update options" section of this article - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Updating+Firefox
    Turning off automatic updates in Chrome is not as easy, it involved editing the registry.

  • When I use the keyboard on my iphone 5, the keyboard takes a mind of its own.  If I press a letter sometimeIs it puts the letter twice.  It puts periods when I don't want it to.  And if I hesitate on a letter it starts erasing everything I just typed.

    What user troubleshooting have you tried? The user troubleshooting steps are restart, reset, restore from backup and restore as new. Usually a reset will fix most of the unusual actions by the device.

  • My wifi keeps coming on when i don't want it to. How do i disable it and keep it off?

    My wifi keeps coming on when i don't want it to. How do i disable it and keep it off?

    kcquestions,
    That's a very good question! It's important to be on the network you want to be on. How are you turning the wi-fi off? If you go into your settings there should be a wi-fi switch as the second option from the top. If we turn it off there it shouldn't come back on until you tell it to. If you select that and press the menu button (3 dots in the top right corner) you can also turn off "Allow wi-fi scanning" which can help not get notified of them when wi-fi is off.

  • A website I opened now always appears when I open Firefox. 1.How can I stop this? 2.How can I eliminate urls I no longer nris?

    I have a Motorola Droidx.
    Re Question 2, I just don't want to have to wait through every word I haven't looked up on dictionary.com to find a site I looked up yesterday that was interesting but not interesting enough to bookmark.

    You can set the Firefox home page by opening the menu key, selecting preferences, then use the 'Start page' drop down menu to chose the option you want.
    Firefox mobile does not have a way to remove select URLs from the History. Just the global clear private data button. There are extensions that will allow you to clear just history or cookies but that is not quite what you want.
