Does Safari have a link preview option?

As an example, I'm reading a blog that has a weblink, but it's been renamed and not the regular address. I'd like to be able to move the mouse pointer over the weblink and see a preview of where the link leads before clicking. Is there a setting within Safari that allows me to do this?
BTW, I don't know how to abbreviate and rename a link like I've referenced above. Can someone give me an idea of how one does this too?
Thank you.

Is there a setting within Safari that allows me to do this?
Choose to show the Status Bar in the View menu and then hover the pointer over the link.
Can someone give me an idea of how one does this too?
When writing HTML by hand, use code such as:
<A HREF="http://www.apple.com/">Apple</A>
If using an editor, check the documentation for it.

Does safari have do not track software?

Does Safari have an option for "do not track" within their browser? If so, how do I activate it or find it?
Thank you

Ciao, here is the Link for Incognito: http://www.orbicule.com/incognito/ you may also want to consider ClicktoFlash makes a huge difference on some pages and cleans up a lot of clutter. Look for it under "The Most Popular" section.

Quick question... does safari have add-ons or plug ins?

I've been Safari and firefox intermittently for the past week or so, and I've definitely noticed that Safari is faster than firefox most of the time, which I really like. And I like how links to some major websites are built across the top below the address bar, too. I also like how it's streamlined and condensed.
However, I like firefox, too... namely because of all the add-ons and plug ins, such as foxytunes, download helper, the toolbars for yahoo and google (those are the four I have because those are the only ones I use).
So, does Safari have plug-ins, or add-ons available, akin to firefox, or the app store (that I've heard about) for the i-phone? Because, if so, (if I could get those four plug-ins, or equivalents) that would be enough to make me do a complete switch.

Hi and welcome to the Apple discussion forum!
Yes Safari do use plugins as well as firefox, i guess that you already got the Flash plugin installed.
But you find some other available plugins at this site as well, that you maybe not have installed yet.

And regarding the Appstore that has really nothing to do with Safari though, the appstore is a
place where you can Buy/Download software for your iPhone. Cheers, J~G

Windows 8 does not have a USB boot option

QuestionHow can I boot my Windows 8 laptop from a USB device? I created a recovery disk on a USB thumb drive.
So far I have:
Entered into the UEFI (BIOS) and set USB to boot first.
Disabled secure boot.
I tried to reboot using the general setup options for startup in the windows settings page. I choose boot from USB through the UEFI, but got an error message that system does not have a USB boot option.
To confirm I also created a bootable DVD with an ISO burner, but my laptop cannot detect a DVD boot option either.
I assumed that the firmware of the UEFI for this computer allowed a bootable USB but in practice I cannot seem to get this work.
AnswerTo assist with not being able to boot from a USB device on a Windows 8 laptop, perform the following:
Plug in USB bootable device.
Hold down F12 when restarting and access UEFI menu (option is below drive list). If system is set to fast boot, CLICK HERE for instructions on entering the UEFI.
Go to UEFI and make USB "1st boot".
Disable secure boot.
Go to the "Advance" Tab, select "System".
Change boot order from UEFI to CSM.
Save changes and exit (F10).
Computer will restart and boot from USB drive.
When finished go back into the UEFI and set defaults then save changes and exit (F10). Windows 8 will reboot normally next reboot.

Done that, only choices are "Set up Firefox to Sync" & "Pair a Device". No ''UNLINK THIS DEVICE". Your turn.

Does safari have a homepage on an iPad

Does safari have a homepage on the iPad?

No. you can't set a home page in Safari. But - you can add a shortcut to a home page on your home screen that will always open to that page that you want to use.
Launch Safari and navigate to the web page that you want as your home page. Tap the Arrow icon next to the url field in the Safari tool bar at the top - and then select Add to Homescreen. That will put an icon on your home screen that will open to the selected home page in Safari when you tap on it.

Does Safari have a css property to emulate IE's disabled vertical scrollbar

Hi,
Does Safari have a css property to force the always-on disabled Internet- Explorer-type scroll bar like Firefox has? The site design needs to plan for the scroll bar width anyway, and I don't want the screen jumping left and right when the scroll bar activates and deactivates. I also don't want to use the active scroll bar by setting lengths to height plus one.
Thanks!
Thanks!

This isn't about the css standard. I agree that IE is a huge impediment to progress on the Internet as a whole. Having scroll bars showing by default or not is a browser design choice.
Firefox and Safari have initially chosen to hide them by default, and have them visible only when content exceeds page length. I used to think that was the "right" way. I, and many others, now realize that IE has it right. The advantage is the page doesn't jump around depending on content. The designer must compensate for the possibility of a scroll bar in the design anyway. Firefox has recognized the validity and widespread support for this position and has since incorporated a proprietary css property to render the disabled scroll bar. They separate their properties by prefixing them with moz to circumvent conflicts with what may become a W3C standard property in the future. My question is whether or not Safari has any means available to web developers that enable them to display an inactive scroll bar yet.
Thanks!

I'm updating from 4 not 5 and under General it does not have a Software Update option. How do i update ???

To update the iOS to 5.1.1 from iOS version end prior to iOS 5 you must connect the iPad to a computer running iTunes.
Start iTunes on the computer, connect the iPad, select the iPad in iTunes on the computer. If you are not automatically prompted to update select the General or Summary tab and then click on Check for Updates.

HT4623 My general settings page does not have a software update option, any ideas on what to do?

My general settings page does not have the software update option on it does anyone know what I need to do? Was trying to update iOS

The Settings > General > Software Update option only appears when you have iOS 5+ installed, if you have iOS 4 then you will need to follow the second part of that article and update via your computer's iTunes.
Connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases. You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button
Updating to iOS 5+ : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
If it's a first gen iPad then it should be update to iOS 5.1.1, if it's an iPad 2 (or 3) then it will update to iOS 6 (so you will lose the built-in YouTube app and the Maps app will change).
