Why can't I bookmark this page like I can with support.discussions pages?

Hi UI Guy,
I can't provide the technical reason, however, I'm farilry certain it is a function of Forum structure itself.
Don't know if you are interested in suggestions to meet your need to "bookmark pages within the Apple Support system so you can refer back to them easily", but I use them regularly, and do this one of two ways (I use both):
If it is strictly an Apple Support page that I retrieved from Apple, I bookmark it with clear easy to find names, and put them in my Apple Support Folder in my bookmarks (I use Firefox). That way, when I need to provide a link to someone I'm replying to, I can quickly find the item I want them to be able to link to.
I also bookmark discussions that have links in them that I may want to use, and tag them so I can find them later.
I have to say, however, that for Apple Support Pages, the best solution for me has been to have my Apple Folder with my personally named bookmarks in Firefox. Easy to find, easy to cut and paste into a discussion on a separate window, easy to reference when I need to know something.
Again, don't know if you even wanted to know any of that, but thought I'd share!
Cheers,
GB

I recently start using Firefox panorama. If I create a tab group that contains, for example, my favorite stack exchange websites, can I save ("bookmark") this tab group for easy access if I start a new session?

You can bookmark all those tabs and place them in a folder.
* "Bookmark This Page" and "Bookmark All Tabs" no longer show in the Bookmarks menu unless you open the Bookmarks menu via the keyboard (Alt + B).
* "Bookmark All Tabs" can be accessed via the right-click context menu of a tab on the tab bar.

Why does my home page suddenly open up with a small page instead of full screen?

Window sizes and positions are stored in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/localstore.rdf localstore.rdf] in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder].
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Corrupt_localstore.rdf
(caution: do not delete the localstore.rdf file in the Firefox program installation folder)
Note:
Deleting the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/localstore.rdf localstore.rdf] will reset the customizations of the toolbars to the defaults.
You can rename ''localstore.rdf'' to '''localstore.rdf.sav''' to test if that solves it.
Then you can restore the customization by copying ''localstore.rdf.sav'' to ''localstore.rdf'' if it didn't work.

How can I quickly view pdf files like I can do with Windows Picture and Fax viewer for jpg files?

How can I quickly view pdf files like I can do with Windows Picture and Fax viewer for jpg files? I need to look at several thousand PDF files. It takes too long to open each one individually. The only thing I could think of is combining them into large groups and then using the Navigation index. But I like the way windows Picture and Fax Viewer does it because you can keep the files separate. Combining PDFs causes loss of individual file names. That would be a problem since I do need to have the individual file names.

Windows Picture and Fax Viewer is a DLL and is started via a rundll32.exe call and can't be set as an application to handle images in Firefox 3 and later versions.
Try to set Windows Picture and Fax Viewer as the default viewer in Windows, then it should be listed automatically in the Mozilla Firefox Browse dialog.

How can I click on a bookmark and have it open a new page? When I click a bookmark it always opens right in the sidebar, all my bookmarks disappear and I am left with two seperate pages?

I keep my bookmarks open at all times in the sidebar. If I want to go to a site, say Google, I must do a right click on the bookmark and then click on "Open In A New Tab" then the google page opens in a new tab.
I want to skip the second click. I want to be able to simply left click the google booknark in the sidebar and have google open in a new tab.
the way things are now, when I simply do a left click on the google bookmark the new google tab opens in tne sidebar itself. My bookmarks disappear from the sidebar and the google page is opened in the sidebar. So at this point I have two active page open at the same time.
Is there a way to simply left click the bookmark in the sidebar and have the bookmark open as a regular page?
Please pardon my clumsiness as I have only today used FireFox for the first time.

Opening in the Sidebar is the default action for bookmarks that are created via a "Bookmark this Page" link or button on a website. Make sure you use the many "Bookmark this Page" methods that are in Firefox instead.
Right-click that bookmark and select '''Properties''', then un-check the preference for '''Load this bookmark in the sidebar''', and then click Save.

Can iWeb make changes (update) to Web site made with Microsoft Front Page

Hello,
Our local historical society hired a web master to create a web site for us. He made it with Microsoft Front Page. I was able to make changes until my husband upgraded to Microsoft Office integral 2007. My question is: Would I be able to continue making changes or upgrades to this site but using iWeb '08 instead? I would much rather use my Mac than his IBM.
Thanks,
S Craig

No. iWeb can only create and edit sites that have been created from scratch in iWeb. What you might be able to do is download the files in the current site and use the image and graphic files to make a duplicate site in iWeb.

Why does Firefox keep opening a separate Firefox tab along with my home page when I start it, and how do I stop it.

When I click on the Firefox icon, it opens my home page, but in a separate tab it opens a Firefox page. I only want my home page to open when I click the icon.

Firefox can store multiple home pages, make sure the other sites are not listed as home pages - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page

You can't get around it. It must be restore using iTunes on a computer. If you don't have access to one, make an appointment at the genius bar of your local Apple Store.

Hello jacquemac,
Your first question:
There might be a better way of achieving what you wish to do, but following these steps could help you out.
You might want to blend in Thumbnails and Invisibles either with (cmd+shift+i and cmd+alt+p) or over the View section in the Menubar.
1. go for Documents (right end of the Toolbar) -> Section
2. place your cursor at the very top of your second page and click "Create new Section->Starting with this page" in the side bar on your right.
(what you are actually doing next is setting the pagenumbers for each section you created. You can see your sections in the Thumbnail view.)
3. click on your first page (the first and only page of your first section) and mark the checkbox "Hide on first page of section"
4. click on your second page (the first page of your second section) and "Insert page number" -> start at 1
Your second question:
Im not quite sure i understand what exactly you want to do here. One page, two columns, each column with another page number? As far as i know this is not possible.
greetings jl

Can I soft proof in LR4 like I can in PS CS5?

I haven't used LR 4 yet, but did view the soft-proofing tutorial.
I applaud Adobe for adding this functionality in LR4. It was one of the most obvious lacking features in the previous version, and I've still been mostly doing all my printing through PS CS5.
While soft-proofing is not a perfect replacement for test printing, I've been mostly satisfied with proofing in CS5.
Proofing in LR4 seems a little different, but by using a virtual copy it looks like if I use my printer/paper profile I should theoretically be able to not only be able to deal with color gamut issues, but also adjust contrast & brightness to more closely match my original developed image, and could compare the original with virtual copy in compare mode. Is it that simple? And if so, why is there a contrast & brightness adjustment in the Print module? That latter adjustment would be similar to what one goes through in PS CS5 when soft-proofing prior to printing. However, why have it if it can be done in the Develop module......and regardless, from the video tutorial it looks like you can't preview the image after making those adjustments in the print module nor compare it with the original......thus forcing one to make multiple prints until the result is satisfactory.
Just seems to me there is a bit more tweaking to do in LR4 to make the soft-proofing more functional. Or, perhaps I'm too stuck with the paradigm set forth for soft-proofing in PS and need someone to clarify how I can achieve the same result in LR just as confidently.

BTW, I've benefited immensly from your and Martin's Evenings books.......you've never steered me wrong.
Thanks for the kind words...but LR4's soft proofing is worth the effort to use. It really is better than Photoshop's soft proofing. I'm still on the fence regarding VCs vs Snapshots for soft proofing It's a tossup but the VC part has been built in while making a snapshot wasn't.
The advantage of LR4's soft proofing is you get the ability to do a Before/After while still using the full range of LR4's controls to adjust the printed version. Makes it really easy to nail great print (assuming you have good print profiles).
As for the Print module Brightness and Contradt...that's really a special case that doesn't involved color managed output. It's a crutch for those who don't have a locked down system. It's east to tweak but you have to make example prints since the controls don't actually display but only impact the output. I tend to avoid that.

Scroll Bar for Nokia Support Discussion Page

Why dont they add a Scroll Bar under the page selector of each string so that without going from page to page we can jump easily to the required discussion page which may be hundreds of pages away?

How would you ever know which page you wanted to scroll to??
Probably easier to use the search engine to find what you want??
Also a lot of threads were started a while ago and possibly outdated in the older pages anyway.
Some things in life are guaranteed, but can you claim on them?

How can you modify / customize radio stations like you can with Pandora?

Hi all, I'd like to customize radio stations to add artists, but the only option I'm seeing is to follow artists. Can you customize radio stations in Spotify like you can with Pandora? I didn't find anything on the boards for this. And also, how do you delete radio stations? I'm not finding Spotify to be very intuitive. Thanks in advance!

Totally agree...I am on the 30 day premuim trial and will cancel. Why would I pay $10 a month for a piece a softwate that won't let me make basic modifications...like deleting a created radio station that I sdon't like or don't want attatched to my profile anymore. Rookie bull**bleep**. You gotta do better to cmpete.You can always just not listen to that channel; I keep adding new ones all the time. I admit it would me nice to be able to delete radio stations, but there are many other issues that need tackling first. IMHO. You're not paying for the software. The radio feature is secondary to the extensive library.

Safari (only?) errors with Apple Discussion Pages

I have been having connection problems with my ISP -- intermittent inability to load web pages or Widget updates, etc., or just very slow loading. It is extremely intermittent: over the space of an hour or two it can go from full speed cable to near zero to flat out dead.
Complicating things greatly is that sometimes, during the slow-but-not-dead periods, Safari refuses to load Apple Discussions pages at all, displaying error messages with or without an number number, but always saying the connection was lost. Sometimes this is after a minute or so of trying to load the page, which I attribute to the slowness of the connection, but other times it is immediate. When this happens, retry or going to another page with a link back to the first page & trying that continues to get the error immediately.
IOW, Safari won't even try to reload the page. I have tried emptying the cache, but it doesn't help. Other pages will load, but slowly.
At this point, I can get the page to load by copying the URL into Internet Explorer, so I know the page is available & the connection, although slow, is capable of sending the page to my computer.
Does anyone have an explanation for this behavior? Or better yet, a way to convince Safari to try to reload the page?

How can I text on my pc like I could with my android via mighty text

Gave up my android for an iphone and really miss being able to text from my pc like I could with the "mighty text" program for androids. Is there anything out there like that for iphone? I have searched hi and low and no luck. Is anything in the works? Huge time saver and really convenient.

You can only use this with other people who have mysms. Very limited and don't want to send out invites. Thanks though. If you have a chance look at mighty text and you will see how awesome it is for texting from a pc. Surprised Apple hasn't come out with something similar. Simple and easy.

I am having a hard time browsing apps. Everything seems to be sub-categorized but I can't browse by sub-category like I can on my phone.

I am having a hard time browsing the app store on my iPad. I just got it and I can't figure out how to browse for example adventure games. On my android phone I can go into the app store, click on games, I can look at a list of subcategories such as arcade or board games. They are then sorted by release date or popularity. I can't seem to do that with the iPad app store. Hopefully someone can shed some light on how to do this.
Thanks :)

You can choose a Category.
