Safari 6 new "combined" feature problem

Hi,
I've search and see alot of complaints about Safar 6.  I also upgraded to Safari 6 without realising the very non-User friendly changes they have made.  I want the Google Search Box back, not the combined Address and Search box.  It used to allow you to search from a page and still retain the page you were already on.  You could view your history or 'clear' history.  Also the Tabs are too wide.  Even when you try to customise the Toolbar, to add another "Address and Search" box, it wont let you add another one.  If it did let you add another one, then you could possible use that 2nd box, just for searching, and the other just for entering "Addresses". 
Please.... how do I unstall Safari 6 and go back to the earlier version of Safari 5x, easily, please?  I'm not technical so please could you suggest the non-technical way.
Thanks, hopefully.

Sure, there are other browsers. The best-known are Firefox and Chrome (I would use the open-source version, Chromium, instead.)
You can't get rid of the combined search bar, as far as I know. Somebody may come up with a hack to get around it, but that's the sort of thing I spend most of time on this site helping people to get rid of because they've wrecked their system.
It took me about 5 minutes to get used to the change; now I couldn't care less. Same goes for the wide tabs. It's just not an issue for me. The pinch gesture to show all tabs in miniature is actually an improvement, though not a big one.
One thing I had already done that mitigates the effect of the change is put a bookmark to Google Advanced Search in the Bookmarks bar. Then I can initiate a search by pressing the key combination command-1. No need to use the search bar at all, and I seldom did.

  • Safari Roboform new Tab & Window problem

    when i want to create a new tab or window in Safari for Mac, Safari closes with the message that an unexpected error occurred with the Roboform plugin. the same problem occurs when a website wants to open a new tab. any solutions?

    Hi,
    sorry for the late response. I have h:messages on the page and I don't get any errors. I try to open the link so: right click on the link and then I choose "Open Link in New Tab" or "Open Link in New Window".
    If I simply click on the link everything works fine and the new page is displayed but when I use the right click menu the same page is displayed and I have to click again to obtain the desired page.
    thanks

  • NSS326 Problems Using New SFTP Features

    Is anyone else having issues using the new SFTP feature that was released in the 1.2 firmware?  We are running firmware 1.3.  When we try to connect to the NSS326 via SFTP, the only user that can login is "admin" and they get placed directly into the root of the device.  We want to use the SFTP feature to backup Communications Manager (which requires SFTP) but being dumped into the "root" does not appear to give us access to the vast disk space on the unit, so the backup fails.  Is there a way to configure the SFTP options, because the administration GUI only specifies FTPS (Explicit)?  Thanks.

    On my NSS326, I have a single RAID-6 volume and it's mounted under /share/MD0_DATA.  Each shared folder is containted in that directory (i.e. Web), but is also symlinked to /share, so my Web content is available under /share/Web.   If you create a new "backups" shared folder, for example, it should be available under /share/backups.  You could try specifying that destination directory for your SFTP backups.

  • Acrobat 9 Standard Combine Feature Issue

    Has anyone had an issue with "set new destination" appearing in the menu pulldown after combining pdf's in acrobat 9 standard using the combine feature?
    I use the combine into a single pdf feature to build manuals.  These manuals are often updated and I need to reassign a bookmark to a new page.  With past versions (i.e. version 6 which didn't have the combine feature), I was able to move to the new page, right click on the bookmark, and select "set new destination" 
    Funny thing is abobe's help files tell me to do that or go to the bookmark options icon and select "set new destination" but you can't select something that is not there.
    This only happens with pdf files that I combined using this combine feature in version 9.  I can bring up old manuals in version 9 and find this selection "set new detination" available when I right click on the bookmark.
    Any help would be appreciated
    HC88

    My mistake it is "set destination" in standard not "set new bookmark" as I orginally stated.   I see this option only when I go to a previously built book or I manually create bookmarks in version 9.  The issue I have is I don't see "set destination" when I use the "combine" (merge files into a single pdf) feature in acrobat 9 to build the book.  It seems like it doesn't recognize them the same way as building them manually. I have a friend that has Pro. He is going to run a test for me. I'll let you know how it turns out.
    He also thought it might have something to do with tagged verses not tagged bookmarks and that this combine feature maybe combining them as tagged bookmarks.  Neither one of us knows much about tagged bookmarks so we weren't sure.

  • New Movies feature in Garageband 11- how to export?

    I work at a school and would like to be able to import editable videos from Discovery Education United Streaming into the new Movies feature in Garageband. The thought is to have them remove the audio and then create their own on top of the video.  Some students have pre-made songs that they have done previously that we want to add video to. This seems like it would be much easier for students to do in Garageband than importing into iMovie and splitting the audio and then finding their Garageband recordings to insert.
    The problem I ran into is that I can import the videos, but Garageband will not allow me to export them.  I have tried on multiple machines, and with multiple videos.  I called Apple support and they suggested that it is a codec issue with the .mov file from Discovery Ed.  They could not tell me what codecs are supported by Garageband.
    I was able to get around this problem by importing the downloaded video into iMovie, then exporting it right back out as a .mov file.  When I imported that one into Garageband I was able to export the movie with the new audio file from students without any issues.  If I do this, I might as well just have students use iMovie instead. 
    Does anyone have any suggestions of what I can do in Garageband to make this work as easily as it should.  Thank you.

    Do you have a link to one of the movies?

  • New calling feature in OS X 10.10 needs a keypad

    Neat, thanks. Should still be a setting elsewhere but solves my problem - thank you

  • EBay does not recognize new security feature requiring security number in Firefox but works with IE

    eBay has a new security feature when attempting to e-mail a seller; it requires that you enter a numerical code in a box. When on Firefox eBay does not recognize that I've entered the number and keeps telling me to enter the number but when on IE it recognizes the number. What add-on, etc do I need to make Firefox compatible with eBay? Thanks

    The problem seems to be caused by the Java Console add-ons. Disabling mine (6.0.20 and 6.0.21) fixed the problem.

  • New Zones features in Solaris 10 Beta 5

    Solaris 10 Beta 5 (otherwise known as Software Express 7/04) should be
    available shortly via the download link
    http://wwws.sun.com/software/solaris/solaris-express/get.html
    For more information on what's available in the release, please see the
    already posted documentation
    http://docs.sun.com/db/doc/817-0547
    There are some new Zones features in this release that folks might be
    interested in
    * Command line editing and history for zonecfg(1M)
    With support from the the libtecla(3LIB) library, zonecfg(1M) now has
    command line editing and history support which should help in creating
    and/or modifying a zone's configuration.
    * Configuring UFS, UDFS, HSFS and PCFS file systems through zonecfg(1M)
    Starting with this release, users can specify ufs, udfs(7FS), hsfs(7FS)
    and pcfs(7D) file systems as part of the zone's configuration. For
    example, if /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s7 is a block device that you want to
    dedicate to a zone under the name /mydata, it can be added as follows:
    # zonecfg -z myzone
    zonecfg:myzone> add fs
    zonecfg:myzone:fs> set dir=/mydata
    zonecfg:myzone:fs> set special=/dev/dsk/c0t0d0s7
    zonecfg:myzone:fs> set raw=/dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s7
    zonecfg:myzone:fs> set type=ufs
    zonecfg:myzone:fs> end
    zonecfg:myzone> commit
    zonecfg:myzone> ^D
    This file system will automatically get mounted under the name /mydata
    inside the zone when it is booted or made "ready".
    * NFSv4 client support for Zones
    Zones can now be NFSv4 clients although in this release the default is
    to begin negotiating as NFSv3 clients. To configure a zone to
    negotiate NFSv4, the NFS_CLIENT_VERSMAX parameter in /etc/default/nfs
    should be uncommented and set to "4".
    * The new -z and -Z options to ps(1)
    The new -z option can be used to select only processes in the given
    list of zones. For example, the command "ps -z twilight,16,myzone"
    will print those processes from the zones with the names "twilight",
    "myzone" and the zoneid 16.
    The -Z option automatically adds a ZONE field to the existing reports
    as the first column.
    The Zones team would appreciate hearing feedback from our customers on
    these new features and any other Zones issues or questions that you
    might have.

    In the README file for the 07/04 release it says that there's a problem with some 64bit runtime libraries missing from the SUNWlibC package. I'm a bit unsure about where to download this package from. Do you have the link to the page it is refering too???

  • X Series is here – New Counter Features!

    Hey All,
    The new X Series Multifunction DAQ devices have been announced – check them out here.
    I’m posting here because I think X Series has several new counter features that many on this forum have been looking for. The user manual
    will have all of these details and more with timing diagrams but I
    thought I’d summarize a few of the sexier features and open it up for
    comments/feedback.
    First off – what stayed the same between
    M Series/TIO counters and X series counters? The pinouts between M and
    X series are the same so the PFI lines and default counter pinouts are
    the same. The DAQmx programming is the same (you’ll need DAQmx 9.0, it
    should be up this afternoon) and all the functionality that was
    supported by M Series is supported by X Series, though a few behaviors
    may have changed. Counters are still 32 bit.
    Now on to
    the fun stuff – the big one that I tend to overlook: X Series has 4
    counters per board! They all have the same features and Freq Out is
    still there too (with an additional 20MHz timebase).
    Timebases:
    X Series devices have 100MHz, 20MHz and 100kHz timebases. Note the
    difference between 80MHz on M series and 100MHz on X series. DAQmx will
    take care of the difference for you, unless you were programming in
    terms of ticks and hardcoded in numbers based off of a 80MHz clock. 
    Counter
    FIFOs: X Series has a 127 sample FIFO per counter. When combined with
    PCIe/PXIe, our benchmarked buffered counter rates went from ~350k on M series
    (with a 2 sample FIFO) with a single counter to 10MHz on all four
    counters (160MB/s streaming rate). The FIFO also allows us to implement…
    Buffered Counter Output: Probably my favorite new feature. You can
    now use a multi point write on counters and write out a buffer of pulse
    values. There are two timing modes for this: implicit and sample
    clocked. With implicit timing, every idle/active pair you write is
    generated as a pulse. You can vary the idle/active time for every pulse
    in your pulse train. Check out the "Gen Dig Pulse
    Train-Buff-Implicit-Cont.vi" shipping example. With sample clock
    timing, the idle/active time are updated every time a sample clock is
    received. Check out the "Gen Dig Pulse Train-Buff-Ext Clk-Cont.vi"
    shipping example. These modes give you much more control over your
    waveform – now everything about it can be hardware timed. Also, I’ve
    benchmarked the output rates at 10MHz on all four counters at the same
    time.
    Finite pulse train with one counter: Each X Series
    counter has an Embedded counter paired with it. The embedded counter
    isn’t directly programmable, but it does allow you to do counter
    operations on one counter that used to take two.  A finite pulse train
    used to take two counters – one to generate the pulse train and one to
    gate it. Now a counter generates the pulse train, and its embedded
    counter counts the TCs and disables the counter when it reaches the
    number of pulses to generate.
    More sample clocked
    measurement modes: Edge counting and encoder measurements always
    supported sample clocks, all other counter measurements were implicitly
    (timed by the measurement waveform) timed. With the addition of the
    sample clock terminal to the counters now all counter measurements
    (except for semi-period) support sample clock timing. You can now get
    the pulse width of the pulse just before the sample clock rather than
    getting all the pulse widths and figuring out where they happened in
    time. Why not semi period? We added a new “pulse” measurement instead
    that returns a sample that contains the high and low time (or high and
    low ticks, or frequency and duty cycle) so for each sample clock edge
    you get a full pulse spec. Semi period still supports the same
    measurements it used to, just not sample clocked. Speaking of sample
    clocked…
    Sample clocked frequency/period measurement
    with averaging: X Series still supports the three frequency modes: Low
    frequency 1 counter, 2 counter High Frequency and 2 counter Large
    Range. In addition it supports sample clocked averaging. This is
    essentially a method that is high accuracy method based on the sample
    clock rate. With the same measurement time it has the same accuracy as
    the Large range mode but it doesn’t take two counters.  Note, counters
    do not have their own internal sample clock so you have to provide them
    with an external signal.
    Hope this helps,

    Measurement Fundamentals

    Hi guys,
    I drew up a schematic of one of the applications I need to get running in our lab. To recap:
    1)      We have several piezo controllers for nanopositioning of samples under a microscope, some of them driven by a digital circuit that handles coordinate programming and trigger line programming (for syncing detectors to the piezo motion), other controllers are analog and need to be driven by voltages.
    2)      We would like to emulate the behavior of the digital controller using the analog HW (we have much more analog controllers than digital ones).
    3)      The basic implementation is like this (see also slide one in the attached pdf file) and runs perfectly:
    a.       A global pulsetrain ticks with a certain frequency
    b.      At each tick a voltage is written on an AO line and this tick is also sent to an RTSI line to sync multiple detectors
    4)      To fully emulate the digital controller we also need to implement 4 trigger lines that exist on the digital controller. These trigger lines allow for fully programmable pulsetrain output that is in sync with the movement of the piezo. Slide two in the attached pdf illustrates what is needed. These trigger lines allow for much more intricate syncing of our detectors (only measure during certain parts of the motion instead of all the time).
    After a lot of thinking and experimenting with the existing M series boards back here I came to the conclusion that the desired behavior is not possible with an M series board since they only allow for the output of “simple” pulsetrains with a given frequency.
    Looking at this webpage (http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/9384#toc3) however, I think that the X series board would offer exactly what we need since it allows for buffered counter output that enables definition of very complex pulstrain “shapes”.
    Looking at the schemes I provided, could someone confirm that the X-series covers our needs? If this is the case, we would be interested in purchasing these kinds of boards.
    Cheers,
    Kris Janssen

  • My safari opens new unwanted tabs

    my safari opens new unwanted tabs how can I prevent it?

    There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
    You may have installed one of the common types of ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
    If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, ask for further instructions.
    Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. It may have come from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
    Malware is also found on websites that traffic in pirated content such as video. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
    In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere  should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
    Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
              Install system data files and security updates
    if it's not already checked.
