Adress bar not "active"

Hi,
When I open Safari, I have to click in the adress field, before I can type in an adress (or Google something). How do I make it active as default?

Hey BorreBoy!
Try adjusting the settings that are referred to in the following article in order to make the address bar active upon startup:
Safari 6 (OS X Mountain Lion): Specify the type of page for new windows or tabs
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11869
If new windows are set to open with an empty page, and you have the setting in the “Safari opens with” field set to “New Window,” then the address bar will stay active when you launch Safari. Thanks for being a part of the Apple Support Communities!
Cheers,
Braden

  • Properties Bar not active on occasion

    Occasionally I can open a pdf, either through Adobe or by double clicking the file, and the properties bar will be in active (visible but gray).
    When this condition occurs and I attempt to modify a property the program freezes and closes with an error message.
    This condition is inconsistent and may or may not occur on the same file.

    Then, the problem's in your original account. While logged into the newly created admin account, backup the bad account's folder, delete the bad account, selecting the save data option, recreate the bad account using the same username/password combo, log out and back into the recreated original account. If the problem's solved, open the saved data dmg file in /Users/Deleted Users/, open the /Library/Preferences/ folder from the saved data, open the current /Users/restored account/Library/Preferences/ folder, and slowly copy plist files from the saved data folder to the current one that don't exist in it. Log out and back in to ensure there's no conflict and things still work correctly. Resolving conflicts or identifying corrupt plist files is a laborious process. Good luck.
    See http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4703015 for more details on this process.

  • Tool/Menu bar icons not active - Acrobat in BROWSER

    I have installed the SP1 update of windows 7.  I have the latest version of Acrobat 10. I also have the latest version EXPLORER (9) & FIRE FOX (4).  The PDF file comes into the BROWSER & the Acrobat icons (print, save) show up on the tool/menu bar but are not active.  The commands are active with the RIGHT MOUSE BUTTON.
    Also, links to other web sites (URL's) within the PDF document are not active.  ie. Does not LINK.
    If I force ACROBAT to open as an independent program everything works OK.

    Have you solved this yet?  Perhaps trashing the preference file for the menubar would solve this?  Go to the preferences folder-- /Library/Preferences --and trash this file:
    com.apple.systemuiserver.plist

  • Tool Bar is not active & some projects state "No Masters"

    Hi,
    My edit tool bar is not active and some of my projects state that there are no Masters. The photos in the project folders are the "masters". I feel I may have clicked on something by accident or unchecked something. Any suggestions?
    Thank you!

    I think you have the Quick Preview active. Right hand bottom corner of the viewer. A little box will be yellow. Click on it, and the adjustments are then available.
    Always use quick Preview when looking through your images. Clicking on one of the tools at the bottom of the viewer will also take Quick Preview off.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • Even if the tab is not active it must not be of the same colour as the window title bar is!!! Even the "close" cross doesn't improve the visibility. Nonsense!!!

  • [firefox] Bug in adress bar

    Hello! I have a bug in firefox 10 http://img404.imageshack.us/img404/6367/firef.png It happens, when I'm typing in adress bar. I'm using nvidia 295.20 driver. Does anybody else has this bug?
    Last edited by awesomenickname (2012-02-29 15:10:42)

    I have reproduced this bug with another system too:
    - Ubuntu 12.04 (KDE installed after the basic install) (I did not find anything in Ubuntu forums...)
    - KDE 4.8.2, now updated to 4.8.3 (the update didn't fix the bug)
    - Several Qt and Gtk themes were tested, and all exhibit this  behavior (Oxygen, Cleanlooks, Clearlooks, Clearlooks-Phenix, etc.)
    - Using Nvidia proprietary driver (Nvidia GTS 250, default driver from Ubuntu repo)
    - Firefox is now 13.01, but earlier versions used to behave the same.
    - The bug does not occur in Xfce or Ubuntu's Unity.
    And now something that was not mentioned in other posts, I hope this helps:
    - Going to KDE Control Panel -> Desktop effects -> All effects (second tab) and DISabling the "Fade" effect (near the middle of the list, by Philip Falkner), makes this bug occur in *many* menus and windows, including native KDE menus, and including the taskbar previews!
    I noticed that the autocomplete list in Firefox never fades in, even when the Fade plugin is active, so it looks related. It's just weird that the absence of a special effect causes this. If only I could find a way to make it fade in, everything would look OK :-)
    Can someone send this info to KDE developers if it seems relevant? I don't have an account there...

  • Adress bar doesn't respond too keystrokes...?

    Hello,
    More often then not when I start safari I have too make a new tab too be able too type anything intoo the adress bar?
    I have no extra Safari add-ons running.

    Hi,
    this problem happened to me using the public beta, in the official release it did not appear any more.
    However, I found it still remains in the following situation:
    When using spaces with Safari fixed to some particular space. Then when closing all windows of Safari, changing to a different working space and activating Safari from spotlight (probably also when clicking on the Safari icon in the dock), a new Safari window is opened and one is changed back to the space associated to Safari. Now (when new windows start with top sites), the top sites window is opened, but the cursor is not in the address line as it should be. (I'm not sure about the following: but I think even clicking with the mouse into the address line does not activate a cursor, you have to press cmd-l to activate it)
    Anyone has the same problem?

  • NOOK Simple Touch says "Error Dialog: user not activated" whenever I try to open e-books?

    I have had my Nook Simple Touch for about a year now, and I have been using Adobe Digital Editions without a problem. Now, all of the sudden, Barnes and Noble updated my software and I can't read any of my ADE books!! It just says "Error Dialog: User not activated" every time I click on them. I have looked at many other websites and I have tried plugging my nook in to my computer and reauthorizing it, reauthorizing my computer, deleting the digital editions file and .adobe-digital-editions file, redownloading my books, turning my nook off and on, crying, and screaming. The weird thing is, in all the instructions, it says a pop-up box will come up when I delete the files, but it never does. Is that normal? I always have to do it manually by clicking on the gear. I even made sure I "unhid" all the hidden files. I HAVE DONE EACH OF THESE AT LEAST 5 TIMES AND THEY NEVER WORK!!! HELP ME, PLEASE.
    Also, a lot of the websites say to make sure your Barnes and Noble ADE I.D. is the same as the one on your ADE computer I.D.. Is the B&N ADE I.D. different from just the Barnes and Noble ID? Becasue I have been using my sisters email for my computer ADE and my email for the B&N I.D.. Are they supposed to be the same? If so, how come I was able to use it without a problem before?? I tried reauthorizing ADE with my email, because I also have an ADE account with my email, but then it wouldn't let me redownload my books onto the new account. Does this mean I have to change the ADE computer I.D. and wait until my books are available again to read them? Is that the way to fix it? UGH!
    Help is much appreciated.
    P.S. I have ADE version 2.0

    Just to clarify, there are two levels of Authorization -- one for the ADE software and one for the nook. You have to use your Adobe account to authorize both (and they have to be authorized with the same user name). It sounded like your original problem (Kcoline) was with the Nook authorization, and it was the same problem the rest of us were having.
    To get your files back, I suggest carefully reading over the "Activation and Authorization" section of the ADE help. It appears that ADE will automatically find your files but note the "Note" in quoted text below... 
    http://www.adobe.com/products/digitaleditions/help/
    "After activation, any books, magazines, or other documents you previously bought with Adobe Acrobat® or Reader® software are migrated to Adobe Digital Editions. This is usually a relatively quick process. Adobe Digital Editions opens each item and reverifies its license to the user. If you don't have DRM-protected items, you don't need to be online during the migration. If you have a large number of items (for example, more than 100), then this process may take a while, but you will see a progress bar indicating the state of the migration as it proceeds.
    Note: Items that you previously borrowed from a public library with Adobe Acrobat® or Reader® software are not migrated to Adobe Digital Editions. You need to return the library item and then borrow the item again with Digital Editions."
    If it's not finding your files, it may be because they're located in a folder different from the one that ADE is trying to use to find them.
    You may also want to check the "Transferring items between computers" section, as this describes where the files should be located, and how to reimport them into your library.
    Good luck!

    Empty the Safari cache more often.
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
    Select:  Show Develop menu in menu bar
    Now click Develop from the menu bar. From the drop down menu click Empty Caches.
    Quit and relaunch Safari to test.

  • How do I change the order of sites when typing in the adress bar?

    I usually type "go" in the adress bar if I want to go to google, then it automatically finishes and I just click enter after "go", but lately another site has taken the place so when I click enter I come to the wrong site. I have not searched for this site more than google. How can I decide which one will be the automatic one? It's really annoying!

    I think you can remove suggestions from the address bar by arrowing down to the unwanted site on the auto-suggest drop-down list and pressing Delete.
    Make sure to arrow to another site or edit the address before pressing Enter or using Go, because that deleted URL will still be the address bar.
    Does that work?
