Can I restore previous functionality of the Maximize button in Yosemite

Yosemite is taking a little getting use to; I love the new look, but there are little things that are bugging me. With previous version of OS X, I could be on a webpage, and click the maximize button in the upper left corner, and it would maximize just enough to view the entire width of the webpage, which is what I loved. It would maximize to what you need without wasting your screen real estate; there was a distinction between maximize and fullscreen options. With Yosemite, they seemed to have taken a queue from Windows, and just made it less intuitive with simply turning maximize into a full screen option. Is there a way to revive this previous feature? (without reverting back to Mavericks)

You can insert space for example on safari (which is one of the culprits of having no space)... Right click on toolbar and click customise toolbar...

Its not too bad... I mean the little circle isnt that big either.
Both above suggestions ARE brilliant! You should utilise both...
Another solution is to double click on the empty space of the top bar of the app... This does the smart zoom.
It works on many native apple applications. Such as safari...
I think apple will make everything function this way soon... And eventually 3rd party developers too...
Thanks for providing terrific solutions, I'm grateful. However, I still noticed one issue. These solutions only seem to work, assuming the intended application window is small to begin with. For example, if I load a webpage in Safari, and drag a corner to increase the window size beyond the efficient viewing angle, clicking the Option+Maximize button or double clicking an empty space at the top, become ineffective; nothing works to "zoom out" and restore the more efficient viewable size.

How can i add a function to the Home button?

I'm developing an app and in order to make it work, i need to add a function to the Home button when the user is in a specific screen.

I would not say "impossible", but certainly not an app that would ever be available via the iTunes App Store.

Can I restore MY RATINGS from the library.xml file alone?

That's the question - Can I restore MY RATINGS from the library.xml file alone?
Some facts to consider before replying:
1. I do not have the ITL file, so that solution is out.
2. My ipod was restored so NO ratings there either.
3. So far I have only seen programs to use BEFORE losing your itunes library. IF YOU KNOW a third party's program can help me AFTER THE FACT then tell me about it.
4. I HAVE searched these forums for previous threads. (a) searching engine needs big help and (b) among the 2 dozen finds, no solution for "only XML" found. If you got THAT threads url, post it!
So, using an old library.xml file, is there a way to get this info into itunes.
thanks

p4 3Ghz box Windows XP Pro if you can give me $10K in replacement software, I'll be glad to switch to MAC

there is mention of a hta
script, SaveRatings.hta , that saves and restores
the xml data.
The save button worked just fine. ..........
Turns out the restore button works just fine too when I dont toss in my homemade ratings.xml before clicking restore;-)
more explained at http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=587586&tstart=0
anyway Otto's saveratings is a excellent tool to have on your drive. Unless you like re-rating 1400 or 1500 rated songs...........

How to restore previous session using the control panel

I have tried all pathways through firefox with no results. There is a way to restore previous session using the control panel. I tried it before and it worked but I forgot to write down the pathway and lost this method. Does anyone know it?
thank you

I can't think of anything useful in the Windows Control Panel, but perhaps you were using the System Restore feature? As a shortcut for that, you could try the Previous Versions tab of the Properties dialog for sessionstore.js or sessionstore.bak.
First, I recommend backing up your current sessionstore files.
Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using
Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
Leaving that window open, switch back to Firefox and Exit
Copy sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak to a safe location (e.g., Documents folder). If you cannot see those file extensions, try this Microsoft support article: [http://support.microsoft.com/kb/865219].
Then right-click sessionstore.js, click the Previous Versions tab, and see what is available.

HT201272 Having a bad day my iTunes library got corrupted and my back up disk has failed how can I restore my purchases from the iTunes store

Having a bad day my iTunes library got corrupted and my back up disk has failed how can I restore my purchases from the iTunes store? When I try it tells me the pruchases have already been downloaded to this computer.

Does your purchased rmusic appears under the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) ? If they do and you don't have the cloud symbol against them so as to re-download them, then do you still have the entries for them in your library i.e. where you would normally click on them to play them ? If you do then try deleting them from there (iTunes will be seeing them and assuming that you still have them somewhere) and they should then get the cloud symbol for re-downloading in the Purchased link.
If you aren't in a country where music can be re-downloaded then you could try contacting iTunes support and see if they will grant you a re-download : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page,

Mac OS no longer available after trying to remove Windows on Bootcamp. How can I restore Mac OS without the Mac HDD in options?

Mac OS no longer available after trying to remove Windows on Bootcamp. How can I restore Mac OS without the Mac HDD in options?
So what I did was, I had bought my iMac from a shop and asked them to do bootcamp for me. However, they installed 32 bit instead of 64. My fault, I did not make my self clear about it. So after it has been delivered to my house, I realized that I wanted the 64 bit. I tried to remove windows on bootcamp but honestly, I have not experienced this before. So I failed. I believe, I did something wrong.
So I opened the iMac and it keeps asking me to go to windows. Windows OS also corrupted.
I tried the Option Key but the only option is Windows 7 only. So using a different keyboard, I press option and it only shows Windows HDD and the Mac HDD has gone.
What am I going to do? How can I restore Mac OS without the HDD anymore?

Report Builder: can i define a function in the rdf file ?

Hi All,
About the report builder, can i define a function in the rdf file ? and then i want invoke it in the report SQL, just like :
function Get_Ap_Prepay_Balance(p_Invoice_Id IN NUMBER, p_End_Date IN DATE) RETURN NUMBER IS
l_Amount number;
begin
RETURN l_Amount;
end;
thanks.

You can create functions in reports, but slightly different from doing it in PL/SQL
function Get_Ap_Prepay_Balance return number is
l_Amount number;
begin
assuming that you have invoice_id in your select statement and p_End_Date is a report parameter, you can refer to them in your function as :p_End_Date and :invoice_id
for example select prepay_amount_remaining into l_Amount from ap_invoice_distributions where invoice_id = :invoice_id and accounting_date = :p_End_Date
return(l_Amount);
hope this helps

Your only hope is to place your phone in to DFU mode and restore it using iTunes (if iTunes allows you to).
Search in Google "Force iPhone in to DFU mode" and follow the instructions precisely.

Restore back up of my iPhone-password not recognised. After restore, itunes can not restore because it says the password is incorrect. But I can sign into my apple account with the password. My iPhone is now set to factory settings as a new phone, what can i do to access the back up from my phone before I reset it.

That does happen. It depends on how hard the server is being hit, as well as the connection speed of your system. If you are on a windows system, you will want to disable any antivirus or firewall software during the download.

When I switch libraries I lose the majority of the material in my main library and can only restore it by repairing the database. Can anyone tell me why this is happening and how I can resolve the problem? Thanks

When I switch libraries I "lose" the majority of the material in my main library (or at least I can't see it) and can only restore it by repairing the database. Can anyone tell me why this is happening and how I can resolve the problem? Thanks

I seem to have found a way around it. Rather than switching libraries by going into files/switch libraries I used Aperture Preferences to change them. I've done it a couple of times and it appears to work OK.
That is an interesting finding. It suggests, that your "Preferences" file "com.apple.Aperture.plist" may have been corrupted and you fixed it this way. Can you now switch between libraries the usual way? If not, I'd try to remove the "preferences" file from the user library to the Desktop and relaunch Aperture.
