Application it starts the the last document opened instead a new one
After I upgraded to 10.7.2, When I open an application it start the the last document opened when I closed. This is for all MS Office (Word, Excell, PPT), Safari (opens the last tab and not the home site). Any solution to this?
Doesn't this happen to you too?
Not any more.
I unchecked the dialog in System Preferences.
I properly quit (Command + Q or File > Quit) every application before shutting down. It has always been the default OS behavior that whatever window you had open at shutdown or restart will open when you boot up - that behavior is not new.
I also uncheck the dialog window before/while shutting down.
And, I went a step further (this will stop all):
Open your now hidden User Library folder by holding Option key and going to Go in Menu.
Scroll down to "Saved Application State" folder.
Select all content and drag to trash.
With that folder highlighted, hold Command + I keys.
In the resulting window (you may have to unlock the lock at the bottom and input your admin password), check the box next to "Locked".
Lock the lock at the bottom.
Doing this will prevent any files being written to that folder which means there is nothing "saved". My folder has been empty since I locked it.
P.S. The macworld article works as well.....

I have been downloading pictures and they open up in Preview which is fine but I downloaded a bunch of them and now every time I open preview, ALL those pictures open up. This also happens with MS word - the last document open automatically opens. HELP!
It's Resume, a new Lion feature, which can be turned off here:

The update was downloaded and I started the process. The firefox set up box instructs me to close firefox. The only firefox is the set up box that is open. When I close the last firefox the set up is of course gone. The bottom line: It is telling to close a closed page.
Thank you,See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.<br />
See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]]
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)<br />

No v9 properties toolbar access except in last document opened
Has anyone else noticed this in v9.0 or 9.1 of acrobat?
You want to change the properties of an object such as the text format in a comment/markup text box and, even though you can select the text, "No current selection" is reported where the properties would normally appear.
This seems to only happen when the document being edited is not the last one opened by acrobat. It seems to hold true for shapes and other items that could otherwise be modified using the properties toolbar. Disabling and re-enabling the toolbar does not help. Closing the document and then re-opening it does fix the problem for the one document because now the document is the last document opened, but now the prior "last document opened" no longer works in this respect, even if it had been working.Still not fixed!
Assumptions for this test:
1. Acrobat has been configured so that the "Text Box Tool" (part of the "Comment & Markup Toolbar") is visible on the toolbar.
(Tools --> Customize Toolbars... may need to be used to se this up)
2. The "Properties Bar" is visible (a Ctrl-E should bring it up if it is not already so)
If you had to make changes to get this configuration set, close all Acrobat windows before proceeding so that the settings will be remembered and used when new windows are open.
******BUG******
Text box TEXT PROPERTIES only accessible in most recent file opened.
Steps to reproduce bug:
1. Open a 1st PDF
2. Open a 2nd different PDF
3. Arrange so both are visible.
4. in the 1st PDF create a text box and notice how the window for the 2nd PDF gets the TEXT BOX PROPERTIES BAR
5. notice how there is no way to change the text box properties in the first window.
Results: Text box properties can only be changed in the most recently opened window.
Expected results: Text box properties should work for all windows!
Note that no properties (color, fill, font, ...) of any object (line, rectangle, callout, ...) can be changed using the Properties Bar if the properties bar is not part of the last window opened.
The only kludgy workaround I've found is that if I need a working properties bar in a particular window I can:
1) save the file to capture any outstanding changes that might not have been captured (this is an optional step)
2) make a throw-away minor change to the file (I usually draw a short line segment)
3) Go to File --> Revert (& Confirm)
The file will close and reopen without the throw-away change and it will now be the last file opened so it will now have a working properties bar. -
Why do applications always open the last document or page viewed?
I love my Mac. But since I got my new iMac and OS Lion, I've had a hard time with one option and I can't figure out how to turn it off.
When I open Excel, it opens the last document viewed. Even when I click on a new document, it still opens the last document. When I open Safari, it takes me to the last page viewed. Its very annoying, probably useful to someone other then me. How do I turn this feature off?
Thanks
JimThat is part of Resume, a feature that re-opens the documents that were open when you quit.
You can turn it off system-wide in the General System Preferences.
On a per-app basis, you can only use the cmd-option-q shortcut or menu to close all windows and quit. -
When I start Safari 5.1 in Lion, it always opens the last page opened. Is there a way to start on the homepage?
That sounds great, but on my system, that box is not at the bottom of my Pref/General page, but is when I log out and put it to sleep. What is really annoying is that I have to do this every time, instead of unchecking it and it being permanent. Yes, I have Safari 5.1 and Lion. I would like to permanently disable this as I too, think it is absurd and not a great idea when banking, paying bills, etc.

Check to make sure your applications are compatible. PowerPC applications are no longer supported after 10.6.
Application Compatibility
Applications Compatibility (2)
Do a backup before installing.
Yes, the lack of compatibility with Rosetta is what's kept me at 10.6.8. I used to save everything in AOL for Mac OS X, both emails and things I'd written, until AOL came out with a completely different application and I realized that eventually I wouldn't be able to run the old AOL. Before my last upgrade, from 10.5 to 10.6, I thought I was going to lose the old AOL, so I did convert a bunch of files to Word or pdf or both, and more recently I've converted some others, but I have something like 15 years worth of correspondence and other items, so it would be difficult to convert them all.
Thanks for the articles.
Thanks for the backup reminder. My external hard drive died earlier this week, and so I bought two new ones specifically so that I could backup before upgrading (and so I'd have a backup backup and never be without at least one backup again ). -

When I open firefox it is returning to the last viewed page instead of my homepage even though I have the settings set to clear history every time I close Firefox. I check and all of the previous history is still there and not deleted..
Make sure that Firefox closes properly and that that there are no longer Firefox or plugin-container processes left on the Processes tab in the Task Manager. Otherwise session restore will reopen the page(s) from the previous session.

Each time I open my Firefox browser, the tab from the last time opens. I have the browser set to open on my home page, not to the tab from the last time. I keep trying to save the setting for the browser to open on my home page but it doesn't.
Try to create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

Last document opens on startup
Hello, I've been running InDesign CS6 and every time I launch the program the first thing it does is open the last document I was working on (which I did close before quitting the program). This is extremelly annoying. How can I disable it?

When I create a New Folder (on the desktop or in Finder), the system uses the Generic Document Icon instead of the Generic Folder Icon. How can I change this back?
All of a sudden I noticed that most of the folders on my computer were no longer using the folder icon, but the generic document icon. I had to manually change back the icon being used by opening Get Info for each folder and copying and pasting the generic folder icon from some folders that remained unchanged. Now whenever I create a New Folder (right click -> "New Folder"), the icon that shows up is the generic document icon (white page with top right corner turned down). And I have to manually change it so it shows up as a folder in Finder or on my desktop. I don't know why or how this switch happened. All of the folders now on my computer look ok, but I need to change the default so when I create a New Folder it uses the correct icon.
I have also Forced Relaunch of my Finder and rebooted the system. I downloaded Candybar but am not sure what will fix anything, so I haven't proceeded.
Anyone know how I can do this? Thanks.Anyone?

When I Ctrl+t to get a new tab it opens with YAHOO as the page. I would like it to open my HOMEPAGE.
You can look at one of these extensions:
* NewTabURL : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/2221
* New Tab Homepage : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/777
You may need to check other extensions if they are overriding the page that opens in a new tab.
