Every Google News auto-refresh appears as a separate History entry

I use Google News as my home page, and it's usually open in a tab. I notice that my History creates a new entry every time that GN auto-refreshes (every 15 minutes). I don't think this was the case before I upgraded to Ff4.0.
Even though each History entry has a specific identifier appended to the URI (e.g. ?ar=1301035282), clicking it takes me to the current Google News page, so there's no benefit to the redundant entries.
Any idea how to address this nuisance?

Due to a copy/paste glitch, some necessary spaces have inadvertently been removed. If I could fix this, I would.

How can I make firefox highlight new unread items on Drudge when the page auto-refreshes

So I read Drudge Report and checkit a few times a day. It would be nice to have the unread news items highlighted. The new items that appear after the page auto refreshes. It just occurred to me whilst writing this that I would have to open every link on the page to make the task of highlighting new content easier. I don't know but if there's a way to have the new unread items highlighted it would save time scanning the whole page for new stuff.
Thanks,
Mark

How to fix a website that auto refreshes to not open up in a new tab.

I use a scheduling website for work that auto refreshes. Sometimes when the page auto refreshes it opens up the current page I am on in a new tab instead of just refreshing in that tab like it usually does.
I have reset safari multiple times and it doesn't help. Any idea what I need to do?

Type '''about:config''' in Address bar and search '''browser.newtab.url''' change the value to "about:newtab"
Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:

* [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free/ MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware]
* [http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208283363 TDSSKiller - AntiRootkit Utility]
[http://windows.microsoft.com/MSE Microsoft Security Essentials] is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.

Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
When you enter a search term in the Firefox location bar and press Enter, Firefox will per default do a "I'm feeling lucky" Google search and redirect you to the first result that matches your search term. This behaviour can be changed by a number of add-ons. If you'd like to restore the previous default behaviour, please follow these steps:
#Enter about:config in the Firefox location bar and press Enter.
#You should see a warning that making changes to the Firefox configuration can be potentially harmful to Firefox's integrity. Click the ''I'll be careful, I promise'' button to continue.
#In the Search box at the top, enter ''keyword'' as the search term. You should see a few remaining items, one of these is ''keyword.URL''. It should be bold.
#Right-click on the keyword.URL setting and select ''Reset'' from the dropdown menu.
Now you're done. Please report back if this fixes your problem. Thanks in advance!

Every time I open google news

Every time I open google news it brings up "Install this web app: tap on the share arrow above". I don't want to add it to my home screen, but do want to stop it from popping up every time I go to the news. Any ideas how to stop it from happening. (I even did add it hoping that would stop it, but that didn't help). By the way, this just started happening in the last few days.

But for the love of God they should be able to tell if I've logged in before. It use to only do it once, now it's every time... and I'm actually opening it up FROM that bookmark they implored me to create. And there's a little checkbox in the top corner; which appears to be fake... because it "fades away" after like 10 seconds regardless of how many times you click it. God google, why did you change things, forcing this stupid popup every time? Do you want us to hate you?

Drag drop photo import to aperture folder why auto new project folder appear .

i do import photos from desktop to folder that i want in the aperture libary . as soon as i drag and drop photos automatically new peoject folder appear in the libabry as name untitled project.. why? i dont want that new project folder. i try to delete that folder and my picture all automatically deleted from library.
also if i try to delete photos from preject folder .. it completely deleted from master library .. picture will be lost.. why?
i drag and move pictures to brand new album or folder .. then try to delete wanted project folder - master picture are all gone.
now i have at least 30-40 of untitled project folder in the library ... pictrure are not movable i meant you can move but u still have to keep old project folder to avoid master picture can not be deleted ...
someone help me? did i make myself clear?

You might read the manual or the Help as this is all covered there.
If you want to import to a specific project use the File -> Import option. You can select your destination there.
Every photo in a Library is in a project. Projects are the basic building block of the Library. That's why.
Folders don't contain photos. They can contain Projects or Albums. These contain photos. Albums don't contain the actual photos, just links to them. So if you add a photo to an Album and then delete the project... you delete the photo.
Remember: you don't move photos to an Album, you add them.

When accessing favorites imported from IE8, duplicate links appear for those bookmarks on Google new tab page, while things I have bookmarked in Firefox appear normally, as a single link.

For several months now, I have had this issue. I'm not sure if this is an issue with Google Toolbar or Firefox, but I have uninstalled and re-installed the toolbar several times, and the same thing keeps happening when I access anything Imported from IE8. Anything I originally bookmark in Firefox appears as a single link on the Google new tab page, while my favorites from IE8 appears twice. Everything appears as normal in the Firefox Bookmarks menu. This doesn't seem to affect functionality in any way, but it is rather irritating at times. Is it possible it could be a bug in IE8? I'm curious to see if anyone knows of a solution to this issue. Any help or input is greatly appreciated. Has anyone else had this happen? I have the latest versions of Google Toolbar and Firefox, so far as I'm aware. Thanks, once again, for your time and input.

Thanks to jscher! With some help from AVG my AVG & Google browser panels now work OK. But I've taken the advice & disabled several extensions including the Disconnect. The browsers are still OK after re-launching them so I keep fingers crossed.
My original problem was that I had suddenly found a small popup window appearing, over the browser window, that I couldn't get rid of. It contained an advisory to the effect that Windows couldn't find the file popuptransparent[dot]xul. I tried searching for that to see what it was and in the course of doing that I seem to have executed it. Then was when the trouble started.
I have 3 instances of that file in my computer and would dearly like to get rid of them if they are of no use to me. Any advice there?

Why does new Safari screen appear almost every day?

Almost every day, I get a screen welcoming me to Safari, as if I had never used Safari before. This has been going on for about a week. In each case, I reset the settings, but the next day a new "Welcome" screen appears.

Leonard --
This happened to me, and I started paying really close attention to what I was doing . . .. I found that, being used to a wired Apple mouse, I got into the habit of tapping on the top of the mouse while waiting for the page to change. This sets off Zoom on the Magic Mouse.
So see if that's what's happening with you. I have to really watch it. I've gotten much better at not subconsciously tapping on the top, but it still happens every once in a great while. Otherwise, I love the Magic Mouse.
EDIT: If this is what's happening with you, you can undo it by tapping again on the top of the mouse. It's like a toggle.

How can I stop auto refreshing a new web page in XP immediately after its opened?

In XP, once I access a new web page Firefox auto refreshes that page once the page is ~80-90% opened - how can i stop this refresh?

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the ''Safe mode'' start window.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (on Mac: "Firefox > Quit")

How to make Google custom search results appear on a new page?

Anybody got any idea how to make the search results appear on a separate page? I'm using the Google custom search to get generated code to place on my pages, after providing some 'guidance' information on the look and feel of it. Normally, Google will provide you with a few options to choose from to determine how your results will look and by default one would choose the "two page" option whilst going thru the setup process. One page for the search box on your own page and one for the results page.
However, if you don't want a 'google-generated' results page but want the layout that's in line with the look of your site AND have the search box already on there for any repeat searches it becomes more tricky. I tried doing it one way, which I found one a blog tutorial but so far no sucess. The 'search box' code that I inserted onto one of my pages to test didn't show up the search box at all in preview or the live page...
Anybody got any generic code that can be adapted (that they know works) or know of any tutorial that explains how to achieve this? Preferably Google related, as I'm using its custom search.
In addition, I believe that recently Google have deprecated the use of iframe in its search results pages so for anybody that was using an earlier version of this facility it may no longer work properly and hence the solution might have to be modified. Not an expert, so not sure how much this fact will affect the final code, just a thought.
Any ideas/solutions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

hello adrianm12, this should be possible through the metro settings ("search"). also see [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=941292 bug 941292]...

Safari tab auto-refresh (iPad Air iOS 7.0.4)

When I have multiple tabs open on Safari and I switch from one tab to another, the tab that I'm switching to will reload, causing me to lose the spot I was at on the page. This is especially frustrating when I'm in the process of writing something on one tab then need to use another tab to search for a reference in regards to what I am writing on the previous tab and when I go back to the original tab, everything I had written is gone so I've had to select and copy what I can so I don't always lose all my work (in fact this happened twice while writing this post and I lost all text) but still always lose some of it since I can only save text from one section of a page, for example, I cannot save the title and the body of my post when creating a new thread.
This is also very annoying when I'm trying to read news articles and I keep having to start at the beginning of the page and always have to scroll through the article to get back to where I was...
This is basically making the whole browsing experience very unpleasant. Is there a fix for this? Please do help me if you know of one.

Apple is getting worse and worse. I have the same problem with my iPad retina and I had the same problem with iPad 3 but not with iPad 2. Before to buy the iPad Air I checked in a store if they fixed this annoying problem but I saw they didn't, so I decided not to buy it anymore and actually I want to sell my iPad retina because the auto refresh is very annoying, I cannot use it to work! Apple is good for children to play but not to work. Next time I will buy a cheap chinese android tablet. Also the operating system is much worse than iOS6. Instead to lose their time (the engineers) for this dusguted transparent design that makes me nausea, they could work to fix all the problems the iPad has. It seems they worked hard to make a worse operating system, look at the task bar for example; Earlier there were the url task bar and google's task bar, now they put them together....it's ridiculous!!! If I want to go back to the google page I have to write everything from the beginnig, instead earlier it was sufficient going to the google's task bar and the last research would appeared.

Broadcasting of workbooks, auto-refresh and other questions

Hello Reporting gurus.
Our users run BEX Analyser queries but this is evolving towards more automation and fancy things. A lot of threads exist on the subject but I have not been able to find clear answers. We are on BI 7.
1) How do we use the broadcaster to refresh workbooks and output the results to a network share drive.
2) Queries being part of the workbooks work with user input variables. Do I have to change all queries (or create new ones identical) with user exits variables to fill in the fields for auto-refreshing w(ith let say the current year and current fiscal period etc...) ?
3) Is it possible to create a parameter input screen to pass on variables values to the broadcaster before the auto-refresh takes place so that I don't have to create user exit variables ?
4) How can we view workbooks with the BEX WEB Analyser ? Or do we have to create an application with WAD ?
Thanks

Hi Yves,
in Analyzer you have an menu entry publish with BI broadcaster, then a broadcaster will appear. there you can create a setting. inside that setting you can use a variant and with SPS 13 also variable sets. There you can define the users who should receive the updated workbook by mail. It is not possible to save to file system, but you can save in Portal.Web Analyzer is only to use with WAD and is not able to process Workbooks.
best regards,
kai

Outlook 2007 won't auto refresh the internet calendar

HI,
I subscribed a web ical with the instruction (File > Account Settings and then the Internet Calendars
Tab, then click New and enter the path)
for outlook 2007:
the new calendar could display all the events correctly after set up, but it won't update the new event anymore automatically. even I close and re-open the outlook, it still not update, the last update time is the time when set up this calendar.
for outlook 2010, i tested, it can auto update the internet calendar when open the outlook everytime.
is this the problem with outlook 2007?
(I don't want user to press F9 to refresh everytime)
and i also tried to add X-PUBLISHED-TT property in the iCal file and it seems not working also
Please help ! Thanks !

Hi
zhenyun,
Sorry for Late reply, if you are still facing same
issue then you should go for some kind of auto refresh plug-in or Add-in. After a bit search on Google, I found some of them called
“Zoho” and “Vtiger”.
As I am not much sure about this Add-in, you have to read about
its functionally first by visiting given link.
http://www.zoho.com/crm/help/outlook/using-plug-in-for-microsoft-outlook.html

Hope, this link and Plug-in will give you some relax.
Thanks

Why won't thumbnails load in google news while i'm using safari?

I've searched for an answer to this question for the past month. Display images is checked under the appearance tab in prefrences, and my linksys router and OSX arecompletely reset and restored but the problem still persists... I've also tested google news in firefox and the thumbnails load just fine. SInce they work in other browsers I turned on the error console in safari and i notieced an error appears for every thumbnail it fails to open in the google news feed. It reads:
Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)news.google.com//nt0.ggpht.com/news/tbn/2P8tlc6h9PrPsM/6.jpg
Can anyone guess as to what i can do to correct this?

Check Safari > Preferences - Extensions. If you have any installed, turn that OFF, quit then relaunch Safari to test.
If it's not an extension issue, use OpenDNS for better speed, more security, it's free, and may help the 404 error.
Quit Safari.
Open System Preferences / Preferences then select the Network tab. Click the Advanced tab then click the DNS tab.
Click +
Enter these numbers exactly as you see them here.
208.67.222.222
Click +
208.67.220.220
Then click OK and restart your Mac.
Relaunch Safari.

Every Google News auto-refresh appears as a separate History entry
