Cannot access safari but a small window appears on screen, cannot power off or restart

While on safari, it closed but has left a small window of page i was surfing, I cannot power-off ipad and will not let me go on safari or access anything

Close Safari and reboot your iPad. If you cannot close Safari or navigate to the home screen, just try the reboot described below.
Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to Safari if you don't see it, and then swipe "up" on the app thumbnail to close it.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

How can I turn off Recently Websites when opening new Safari window? After tapping on the two overlapping boxes on the bottom right of Safari, a new blank window appears with Favorites, but now in iOS 8, recently viewed websites are listed.

How can I turn off Recently Visited Websites when opening new Safari window?
After tapping on the two overlapping boxes on the bottom right of Safari, a new blank window appears with Favorites, but now in iOS 8, recently viewed websites are listed. How can I turn this function off? I do NOT want my new Safari windows to have history displayed of previous websites I visited. I only want my Favorites (on the top) to be displayed. Please help.
Thank you for your time, patience, understanding, kindness, and concern.

Thanks for replying, but that isn't the answer I am looking for. Also, there is no + sign, UNLESS you do tap the overlapping boxes.
Let me try to ask my question a little more clearly:
When I tap the two overlapping boxes on the lower left (the option to Open New Windows), the new Window that appears will show your Bookmarked FAVORITES. But with my new iPhone 6, and the new iOS 8.0.2, when I tap the two boxes to open a New Window, my Bookmark Favorites show (as they always have and should), but below them, there is a dividing line underneath them, and it says Recently Viewed Websites, and has these websites available to tap.
So my question is, HOW DO I TURN THESE OPTION OFF?
*UPDATE (10.13.14): Since I have asked this question, I no longer see these Recently Viewed Websites under my Bookmarked Favorites in my new Window tabs. So I hope that Apple fixed it, or somehow it was a mistake, or somehow I changed an Option on my iPhone 6 that stopped this for reoccurring.
Thank you for your help bobseufert! I appreciate your concern, kindness, and the time to try to help. I am grateful.
Have a blessed day.

Safari always loads small window size have to always increase size pressAA several times. How can I have it bigger by default ?

Safari always loads small window size It leaves a wide margin on both side of the window. I have to always increase size press AA several times. How can I have it bigger by default ?
Changing the font size does not work. Many Thanks

Hi Bee
This is not what I mean. I'm not a new user of computers. Even when the window fills the screen. There are wide boarders either side, have to press the AA serveral times to increase web page (in the tool bar top left) so that the web page fits the window.

First, press and hold the home and power buttons until the Apple icon appears.
The problem could be that you don't have enough storage on the device itself, not on iCloud. Go to Settings>General>Usage to see how much "Storage" you have available on the device. Farther down the list is the available storage on iCloud.
Also check:
Go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backups>Manage Storage; there, tap the device you need info on and the resulting screen lists Backup Options with which apps store data on iCloud as well. Tap Show All Apps to get the complete list of apps and MB used for backup storage.
A device needs many MB of storage in order to perform a backup to iCloud.

My MacBook Pro is apparently powered on, but no screen display and cannot power off. Cap lock works so keyboard is working but trackpad not responding.

Bring it to an Apple store or AASP. Power down by holding the power button down.

TS3274 has anyone had a problem with the on/off button being stuck down? my IPad is on, but the power button is stuck down and I cannot power off

I have and IPad 2. I realized (while travelling by air) that my power button was stuck in the down position. I cannot power off my IPad. Wondering if anyone has experienced the same issue and what you may have done to rectify? I think Apple may be aware of this problem. I stopped into an Apple store and they were not supprised, but I could not make an appt because I was traveling and did not live in the area. Thanks for any ideas.

Thanks for the swift reply, I have been looking online and a loose plug seems to be somewhat of an issue with many, I hope mine is actually a problem and not what others are experiencing. It's taken me this long to even reach out for the simple fact I HATE being a complainer but this is just horrible.
Do you have an iPad 3 as well? And is yours not experiencing any issues close to mine?
Thanks again!

Try this now.

Cannot Power-Off in Track Details Scr

I have the Nomad Jukebox Zen USB 2.0 with the latest firmware update (..0) and I frequently run into an issue where I cannot power-off from the current track details screen. In order to power-off I have to switch to the Selected Music screen (the one that shows all queued tracks).
Has anyone else encountered this?

Have you tried a proper Reset? [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank. Be patient, the device will power ON again in the normal way. It is app and data safe!]
Failing that, see here - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3281

Small windows appear and disappear quickly

Hello,
Too often when I'm using my MBP, small windows (dialog boxes) appear and disappear very quickly. I don't know what application generated them, and they usually disappear before I get a chance to read them. Is there a way for me to see what program generated these windows and what where they about? I assume it should be in one of the logs in Console, but I don't know which one.
If it helps at all, the programs I most oten use are iTerm2, Chrome, and MacVim. Googling around didn't show any specific issues regarding these apps.
Any help would be much appreciated.

That sounds like Growl. Have a look here for how to manage it

What plugin or what else use to make cool small window appear when I move on to a link, displaying content of that link on en.wikipedia

Hi,
On my previous computer, I had cool feature on my Firefox working on en.Wikipedia.
When I moved mouse coursor over link, automatically window appear with content of that link. Link was to wikipedia.
This windows was realy cool, cause I could move it, or click "more" so more content was displayed on this window. I could display few such windows on one page I was currently. I could move each where ever I wounted.
So beeing on one page on en.wikipedia I could see explanation of words used in this page, also used from wikipedia, just moving over this word, which was link, and I could display few such windows, that I could move through whole page.
I used older version of Firefox, on different computer, on Windows Vista laptop.
I searched for such plugin, but I couldn't find it. I find one kind a similar, QuickWiki, but much simpler, and much less functional.
I don't know how to find it. It was valuable tool for me. I used a lot of Wiki. Using this tool my job was much easier, as I didn't have to go to new page each time I wan't to check meaning of that word.
Please, help me if you know what to do or what tool to use.
Best regards,
Artur

Thanx :) It's even more than I wanted.
I can see web page in small window, without opening new tab, just moving my mouse over a link. Cool, really usefull. Thank you.

I inadvertently deleted the the small window in the top bar. My home page is cnn but the small window had google. How can I put it back?

I want to add a small window to the right side of the home page announcement, that appears on the left of the bar.
I inadvertently deleted it and can't get it back.

If you right-click a toolbar item in normal (non-customize) mode then you can (re)move an item.
* "Remove from Toolbar" will remove this item from the Navigation Toolbar and moves it to the Customize palette ("3-bar" Firefox menu button > Customize)
* "Move to Menu" will move this item to the "3-bar" Firefox menu button drop-down list
* "Move to Toolbar" in the "3-bar" Firefox menu button drop-down list will move this item to the toolbar
Note that the search bar has changed in Firefox 34 and now only shows a generic search icon and no longer a specific search engine icon and name.

Safari crashes when download window appears?

whenever i try to download something the download window appears and then safari just crashes. is there anything i can do?? i dont want to uninstall and re install it as it is my only browser and i wont be able to re install it.

When I start Firefox, the process starts running but no browser window appears.

Recently, I tried to start up Firefox and no browser appeared. Not sure of what to do, I uninstalled Firefox and installed the latest version. I have still have the same problem. The process appears to be running in the task manager, but no browser window ever comes up. I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate (operating system is up to date minus two security updates). I believe that I installed v9.0.1. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have the same problem - every time I close firefox (using either the red x or by selecting file ---> exit) the program appears to close normally, but the firefox.exe *32 process continues to run. If I try to re-open firefox normally I get a message that the program is still running and I need to go into task manager and manually kill the process.
I could also kill the process from the command prompt, but both of those methods are slow and annoying. This issue has only been occurring for the last 24 hours or so; to the best of my knowledge I haven't downloaded any new software or updated any plug-ins that would have caused a switch from firefox's normal awesomeness. Norton doesn't show any new viruses or other nastiness on my computer.
I'm running 64 bit Windows 7 Home Premium edition.

I create pdf but it does not appear on screen

I create the pdf correctly, but it does not appear on the screen. Time ago always appeared and the I decided if I wantet do print, save or send by email, but now the only thing I can do is to save.
How do I solve this problem?

On the main page of the export screen there is a button that says 'View PDF sfter exporting' or something like that. Tick that and you'll be aways, remember it's a 'sticky' setting so should stay like that until you change it yourself.
