Multiple Browser Session

I use a web site that asks for credentials to log into it. When I log in and click on a link to work on the site I am being prompted again for the login. Once I have logged in the second time then I can navigate all around the site like I should be able to do with logging in just once. The second page seems to be wanting to open a new browser session (not tab) which would make sense since it doesn't see me logged in to begin with. I don't have the problem with iPhones, laptops, Android devices, etc.... just iPads. Since it is just iPads I have been focused on them but have not been able to find anything that would affect this.

Yes, we have tried several browsers but got the same results. Sometimes even worse, requiring a login whenever the page changed.
No, we are a mixed environment. We have Windows machines, Macs, iPhone, and iPads, all networked. We got a hold of an Android device just to test from that platform. The only device that acts differently is the iPad. The web site developer swears that the site is device agnostic and given that just about all devices do work I would have to agree with him. I am just trying to figure out what is so different about the iPad from even the iPhone that it behaves like this.

But i am unable to control the multiple windows opening the browser.So any one can tell me the how to block the new window and new tab/duplicate tab option.

Attempting to do private browsing session froze Firefox, then won't restore one of the 2 windows I had open (with multiple tabs in each). Only 1 window is able to be restored now.

I had 2 windows open in Firefox. Each had multiple tabs open in each window. I then attempted to do private browsing session, but then a pop-up box appeared asking me something about a script (related to private browsing). This froze Firefox. So I had to close Firefox using ctrl-alt-del. I tried to re-open Firefox, but only one of the windows will restore now (with the tabs that were previously open). I clicked on "History" in the menu bar and the "Recently Closed Windows" phrase is grayed out. Is there a way to go about restoring this window? I considered doing a restore to 3 days ago in my History tab, but I am worried that this will erase all the bookmarks I've made in the past 3 days. I've also considered going manually into history and trying to forage through each, but many of these tabs have been open for about a 3-4 weeks now as I've been keeping them all open for research. So they would be buried under hundreds-thousands of other pages. (I've done a lot of browsing). Should I just call it a loss? I appreciate any help.

I removed add-on BetterPrivacy. No problems since then anymore.

How to create a different browser session within the same profile

Internet Explorer 8 lets you create a new session within a new browser window but how can I do the same with Firefox? I know if you switch user profiles then you can have two browsers in different sessions but I would like to have two sessions using the same user profile.

Sorry, that's not possible with Firefox. Firefox uses a single executable instance to run all windows and tabs, where IE starts another process for each window. Chrome uses a separate process for each tab (or window), which seems real nice until it sucks the life out of an older processor with the "overhead" of all those separate processes.
Depending upon what you want a "different session" for, there are 3 extensions that allow for multiple cookie sessions which allow for multiple, simultaneous logins to the same server. That works to allow the user to log into multiple webmail accounts at the same service provider. 
Multifox:

Cookie Swap extension:

Multiple Client Sessions [1 computer]

I have been tasked with finding out whether or not it is
feasible given Windows OS on a single computer with 1 IE browser to
be able to start multiple sessions. Given multiple browser
instances at the same time, can each be tracked as separate
sessions?
I don't know of a way, but wanted to see if anybody else did.
Thanks in advance.

> How are you getting separate session tokens?
1) I click the IE icon next to the start button the task bar.
2) I click it again to get a second blank window.
3) I then go to the first window type
http://localhost/test.cfm
(test.cfm only has <cfapplication sessionmanagement="Yes"
/>
and <cfdump var="#session#" /> in it)
4) I note the session tokens.
5) I then go to the second window and type
http://localhost/test.cfm
6) I compare the tokens and they are different.
The key here is how I launched the second window.
Meaning, had I created the second window using CTRL-N while
having
focus on the first window, the session tokens would have been
the same.
Also, if I click a link from the first window that pops open
a second
window, the session tokens would again be the same.
OBTW, this behavior is dependent on OS/Browser combination.
I know this is not exactly what you are looking for so
perhaps you
can restate the problem or condition you are concerned with?
Good luck!

Running multiple IE sessions each using different version of RE

I understand that it is being said that multiple versions of the JRE can be run in different browser sessions. However, multiple versions cannot be run in the same browser session. I have 2 web applications one uses 1.3.1_04 and the other 1.4.2_10. How can I get two sessions for both appl running simultaniously without having IE problems? Right now the only way I am able to manage from one appl to the other is as follow: I can login to the one appl successfully, then have to logoff and shut down all IE windows, restart a new IE session and login to the other appl. Right now it appears that once I login to one appl, the JRE is loaded to IE, and then shared in all windows and subsequent sessions untill I shut all exisiting IE windows down. The problem is encountered irrespect of how I start a new session: I usually go from one appl to the other through clicking on my favorites, but I have also tried holding shift down when clicking on other favorite, clicked on IE shortcut while other IE window is open to open a new session..but it seems only way IE clears itself is to completely start IE fresh over again so then IE will know which required JRE to load.
Unchecking Reuse Windows for Launching Shortcuts partly resolved the issue.

Multiple user sessions for ADF application

Hi All,
We have a ADF application with 3-4 pages starting with a login screen.
Assume we have two users, user1 and user2. In same system but different browser windows, when both users are logging in, only user2 's session is active. Though user1 logged in first and is able to perform transactions, the moment user2 logs in, user1's session is being over-written by user2 (user1's window now displays user2's information). I have observed the URL of user1 window which now changes to user2's URL (_adf.ctrl-state parameter of user2 is displayed in user1 browser)
How do we overcome this?? We have a requirement to be able to open multiple user sessions.
We are using JDeveloper 11.1.2.3.0 and browsers being used are IE 8, IE9 and chrome.
Thanks,
Deepti

Hi,
Continuation to my above question
I am using these two statements in my code..
ExternalContext ectx = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext();
HttpSession httpSession = (HttpSession)ectx.getSession(true);
On any event in Window1, I gues it is getting the context and session of window2(this being the latest)..
Shouldnt it return the context and session of the current window instead of the latest window???
This problem is well explained here
internet explorer 8 - How to avoid session sharing provided by IE8 programmatically in Java EE application? - Stack Over…
I want to know.. what is the best way to handle this in ADF... We are using managed beans with request scope and using HttpSession to store few values like user Id.

How to open multiple Forms sessions

How do I open multiple sessions of Oracle Forms on the same Client machine. Right now if I have a Forms session open, when I open a new browser session and type in the URL it takes me back to the Oracle Forms session which I have open. I am running Forms 6i on 9iAS on a Solaris machine. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Rajesh,
Your question will be answered rightly in the Oracle - Forms discussion formums.
Thanks,

Best way to approach... Wizards and Multiple Browser Windows?

How have others got / would others get around the following problem?
I have a 4 page custom-built wizard to collect information about people and then, on the final step, insert that information into my PERSONS table. I use the same 4 pages as an Update wizard as well (I have a hidden item which is set either to 'CREATE' or 'UPDATE' depending on whether the wizard is in CREATE "mode" or UPDATE "mode" which I can then use in conditions to tell the app which process to run.) This works nicely and by using the same 4 pages for both my update and create wizards it means I need half as many pages.
When a user enters page 1 of the wizard in UPDATE mode, pages 1, 2, 3 and 4 are populated with details of the person record they are updating. They can then change the values they wish, navigate to the end of the wizard with the "Next" button and then save the changes.
When a user enters page 1 of the wizard in CREATE mode, I clear the cache for pages 1, 2, 3 and 4. The user can then navigate through the pages using the Next button and then click "Save" to save the new person (perform the INSERT into the DB).
The problem comes when the user is half way through an update wizard and then, for some reason known only to the user, decides to open a new browser tab/window and start a Create Wizard in this new tab. Starting the Create Wizard has the effect of clearing the cache for the 4 pages which is an issue for when the user goes back to his other tab and tries to continue with the Update Wizard he was half way through (because all the items will have been NULLed). This problem occurs essentially whenever the user initiates one wizard (CREATE or UPDATE) when he is already half way through another one: One of the wizards is always going to get "messed up".
I would be interested to hear how others have dealt with this problem in the past? Somehow limit the user to having one Wizard open at a time? Or something else?
All/any comments/thoughts/suggestions much appreciated,
Thanks
Andy

Hello,
Well the easiest way around it is user education. Just put an information blurb on the right that says.
>>
Running this wizard in multiple browser windows or tabs will/could cause malformed data to be saved.
>>
Just like when you do online credit card transactions and they tell you not to click twice or you get charged twice.
The problem is that the same browser , if in different windows or different tabs, will share the same session.
You could maybe store all your information in a collection or something and not save or clear cache till the end, but that seems like overkill, just put some text in there that says don't do this!

Why is my Safari browsing session not continuing on my iPhone?

Why is my Safari browsing session not continuing on my iPhone from my MacBook Pro? I thought this was a feature of Mountain Lion or do I need to change some settings?

To synce iMessages with iOS and OSX, you need to not only have a well setup contacts card (both their apple id email and their iphone phone number in one card) you will need to setup your apple id on your phone. Your friend will also need to do the same thing on their phone, however you are able to send messages to phone numbers, they do not sync with OSX and will not show up on, say an iPad. This will be fixed once iOS 6 comes out, or at least that's what the keynote and WWDC 2012 said
In iOS go to settings>Messages receive at and sign in with your apple id you use for iMessages. (make sure you are only using one apple id, I know it lets you use multiple ones, but it works best with one).
now that your iOS device and your OSX device have the same apple id email tied to imessages, have a friend send you a message or send one to your friend and when they reply back it should all sync.
A catch, as of now, with iOS 6 not out, there is no way to sync iMessages made with your phone number and OSX. So some of your text messages may only appear on your phone until you respond.
once you respond, you've responded with you apple id.
if they respond to that message specifically then the chat will sync between all devices.
if your friend says that they have two text messages open for you, tell them that they have to add your apple id to the contact card they have for you, and then delete both messages. Now it'll sync in one message box.
The same is true with other chat accounts and your contact cards in Messages.app on OSX
Think of Contacts.app as the new buddy list...

Record multiple, simultaneous sessions through one webinar meeting room

Is there a way to record multiple, simultaneous sessions through one webinar meeting room? I know breakout rooms can't be recorded, but is there another way to have users join a main webinar room, select a sub-room/session they're interested in, and then join that sub-session? We want to have four sessions happening at once and allow users to choose which they want to participate in. We'd also like to record the sessions. Thanks for any help you can provide.

Use PPT, or a tool of your choice, to create a slide/object with links to each room. Then the user can click between the rooms as desired.
You may want to use the ?launcher=false command at the end of the URLs to keep the individuals from having the add-in launched multiple times and in multiple rooms at the same time. This will keep the meetings in the individual's browser.

Can tabs be turned off so they do not display on subsequent browsing sessions?

When I switched from IE9 to Firefox I opened and switched between a number of browser windows. These now appear as tabs across the top of the browser window each time I open a new browser session.
Is there an option to delete individual tabs so they do not re-appear on subsequent browser sessions?
I currently have displayed 3 tabs for my gemail, two for Google account overview and one for Google help, plus one for Ask a Question Firefox. I can delete the tabs currently showing but they re-appear if I close and re-open Firefox browser.
Any info would be appreciated.

Check that those tabs aren't set as multiple home pages.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
It is also possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
Delete the sessionstore.js [2] file and possible sessionstore-##.js [3] files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

Changing volume kills all browser sessions

About half the time I either increase, decrease or mute my volume via my keyboard, all open broswer sessions are killed. I can be logged into multiple websites using both Safari and Firefox and when I hit funtion keys F10, F11 or F12 on my aluminium Apple Extended keyboard, all open browser sessions instantly close. This has been going on since OSX 10.7.0
I have tried resetting all of my keyboard settings to default and it hasn't helped. It's making me insane!

Since the new iTunes 10.4.1 Update addresses volume issues with 3rd party keyboards, I thought I'd give it a try even though I am using an Apple keyboard but the issue persists.

How do I clear my bookmarks from the Firefox browser on a public computer, having synced my account to see them during a browsing session?

Here's what I'm trying to achieve:
1. I use Firefox on someone else's computer and sync my account to retrieve my bookmarks. (This works.)
2. After finishing my browsing session, I sign out of my Firefox account, and my bookmarks are cleared from the Firefox browser. (This doesn't work.)
I have tried the following options:
a) Open menu > Options > Sync > untick 'Bookmarks' > OK. This doesn't clear my bookmarks from the browser, not even if I close and open it again. They all show up.
b) Open menu > Options > Sync > under Firefox Account click 'Disconnect' > OK. This doesn't clear my bookmarks either, only necessecitates me signing in to sync again.
I understand there used to be an option to 'unlink this device', which may clear all data including bookmarks, but I can't find it anywhere. I've also read an article suggesting clearing bookmarks etc can be achieved by deleting your Firefox profile from a device, but I fear this will delete global options such that I won't be able to access them on my home computer.
Surely there must be a way of siging in then out of the Firefox account on different computers, like you can with e-mail, without leaving all your bookmarks etc open for every other user to see afterwards? I'm transfering to Firefox from Chrome precisely because it doesn't have the capacity to do this (scarily), and to clear my bookmarks from a friends' browser, I had to uninstall Chrome on her computer!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

1. Sync wasn't intended to be used in that manner. You would be better off carrying around a USB Flash Stick with Portable Firefox for use on "strange" PC's.
2. You could open the "Library" {Ctrl + Shift + B} and highlight all those bookmarks and then delete them all at once. But that would also delete all the other bookmarks, and it isn't foolproof. All another person would need to do it to '''''restore''''' a bookmark backup file that has your bookmarks. Beyond that, a new Profile could be created and then the current Profile deleted; but that's "messing with" someone else's computer - an action that is worthy of terminating a friendship over, IMO.
And if that "public" computer was set up properly, Sync should have been disabled.
