Feature suggestion --Is there ability to "Save Set" of tabs or windows?

I'm posting this here in case it is Safari functionality that already exists. Otherwise I hope Apple considers adding this very useful feature to Safari in the future. Perhaps other browsers offer this feature...
When I research a topic, I often open many windows. For example, if I am researching a topic for a paper on Akira Kurosawa or I am comparing reviews of digital cameras and open various pages with reviews and data. Over several days or weeks, I may wish to return to these pages, and it seems to do this I must always "open all windows from last session" every time I start Safari (or leave it running). As I am unaware of another solution, I have to do this often, and it is a pain and leaves always the possibility I will lose a "set" if I forget to go through this process each time I launch Safari.
It would seem to be to be easy and sensible functionality for the user to be able to save a window (with all its tabs) or even the entire set of open windows, using a name of the user's choosing, to come back to later. Thus I might open ten tabs on cameras, then save the entire set as "camera reviews" and access it later; clicking it would open all the tabs. Another file I might save is "Kurosawa" and this might open a Safari window with another set of tabs on the movie director.
Any thoughts on this? I would use it all the time if it was available!

I'm not sure if this is implemented in your version of Safari, but see if there is an option in the Bookmarks menu to save an existing set of open tabs in a window. It is implemented in Safari 5, and it may be implemented in Safari 4.
You may also check out Glims as well as other third-party utilities that most likely provide a similar feature.

I have been using the Firefox feature in which I could have multiple sets of tabs open but see only the set I was working with. I updated and now feature is gone. I had a small icon on the upper right side of my toolbar. I used it all the time to keep separate windows for news, financial items, travel plans, etc. Has this been removed from Firefox?

Is there any way to set up icloud with Windows XP?

Is there any way to set up icloud using a PC with windows XP?

Yes there is.
There are many threads on this forum discussing this issue already (it's good to search before asking the same quesiton again).
There is a simple hack to get iCloud control panel to work on Windows XP to give you synced access to Contacts, Calenders, Reminders and Bookmarks. It also can be used to set up your me.com mail. Photostream doesn't work.
I found a solution here, have written it up in clearer english and added details re IMAP support for me.com addresses here:
http://xlii.be/s/1ii
In summary:
You need:
Unpacking program e.g. 7-Zip or WinRar
Orca MSI editor
The iCloud setup hack for Windows XP:
Download iCloud Control Panel for Windows.
Open iCloudSetup.exe file with WinRar or 7-Zip and extract.
Navigate to and open the iCloud.msi or iCloud64.msi (for 64bit systems) with Orca.
In the left table select LaunchCondition. Then change in the right table “VersionNT> = 600” to “VersionNT> = 200” and Save.
Run modified iCloud.msi and install.
Run iCloud Control Panel, located in the Windows Control Panel, and set up as you want.
I've had reports that you need to keep the files extracted from the .exe file in the same directory during installaton of the .msi file.
Have fun!

Is there a way to set new tabs to open on a certain page (ie. google)

I would like new blank tabs to open on a search engine or other url, is there a way to make it so "new tab" opens a tab that isn't blank? I'm using Firefox 3.6.13 on a Macbook Pro
thanks!

* Use Shortcut Keys
Using key shortcuts [ Ctrl]+[T] will open a new tab if you then press
[Ctrl]+[K] that will take you into your default browser search and your results will then open in the new tab.
other alternatives would be
* Use a Keyword
Set your required search engine or other page to be a bookmark.
Then give that bookmark a keyword maybe using "gs" for google search
See [[Smart keywords]]
If you enter that keyword into the location bar you will go to the chosen location
* Add multiple tabs to your homepage startup list
You can easily set Firefox to open a series of multiple tabs on startup

Is there an on-screen touch feature that can be purchased to save wear and tear on the home/escape button?

Is there an on-screen touch feature for iPad 2 that will save wear and tear on the home/escape button? If so, what's it called and where can I buy it?

And if you are running iOS 5, you can enable Multitasking Gestures in the General settings. This enables you to quit out of an app by just pinching with four or five fingers. That saves a lot of use of the Home button.
Regards.

I updated to the latest Firefox but now can't make a payment via the PC Tools site. They've given me alternative paths to their checkout but I cannot complete transaction. They have suggested there may be a setting I need change to allow this. Help?

I am trying to renew my PC Tools Spyware and Antivirus license but when I go to their site and enter all the relevant information I cannot get past the final "Pay Now" button. The button changes colour to show it has recognised my 'click' but does not take me any further. I have conferred with their Customer Service and they have tried very hard to give alternative routes to this final transaction stage but to no avail. The last suggestion was that there may be a setting I have to change within Firefox. Anybody help please?
I did update to the latest version of Firefox a couple of weeks ago and had no difficulties before then.

Is there a way to set your Illustrator CC to always save down to CS6 as a default?

At our company a select few of us have been upgraded to CC and most are still on CS6. Is there a way to set saving down to CS6 as a default so we don't need to remember to Save as every time?

Is there a way to set an auto sync feature to icloud and windows contacts without using outlook or Windows live messenger just straight to windows contacts?

Need to sync icloud contacts to windows contacts without using outlook or windows live messenger on my pc, i have itunes and icloud fully set up on my pc and i have an ipad2. itunes setting for syncing to windows contacts is not working, nor will it sync to my gmail. I tried to get icloud to sync to my gmail, and thought that i could then sync my gmail to windows contacts, but icloud isn't syncing to gmail either. I configured it correctly, (or at least tried). I was able to copy the csv and all that, and do it manualy, but would like it to sync automatically. Please help.
using itunes new version (9/30/2012), on my windows 7 pc. My ipad2 is running ios 6.

No, you need Outlook.

Regarding Firefox 4 does not ask to save tabs and windows on exit even after trying all suggestions

After installing Firefox 4, Firefox would no longer ask to save tabs and windows on exit. Even after trying all suggestions to resolve the problem, the problem continued. Under the corrupted files suggestion to rename two files, that also did not help. The original file names would be recreated automatically, so both file name versions would exist in that folder. NOTHING resolves the problem.
Unfortunately, since that is a very desirable feature I, like other people who do not like Firefox 4, have gone back to an earlier version of Firefox.

You can set the warn prefs on the about:config page to true via the right-click context menu or toggle with a double left-click.
* browser.showQuitWarning, see http://blog.zpao.com/post/3174360617/about-that-quit-dialog
* browser.tabs.warnOnClose, see http://kb.mozillazine.org/About%3Aconfig_entries
* browser.warnOnQuit , see http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.warnOnQuit
* browser.warnOnRestart , see http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.warnOnRestart
* browser.startup.page , seehttp://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.startup.page (1 or 2)
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. 
You can use "Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session" to get back the previous session. 
There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default about:home Home page.
Another possibility is to use:
*Tools > Options > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts": "Show my windows and tabs from last time"

SQL Dev 2.1:Ability to save and load visual query models?

At SQL Dev 2.1, do we now have the ability to save and load visual query models as with TOAD? Or has that functionality been rolled into the for-pay Data Modeler extension? Seemed strange to hide the functionality deep within SQL Worksheet, then not allow query models to be saved or loaded. From what I recall, load/save was scheduled to be in 2.0.
I've not yet downloaded and installed 2.1, but also as I recall, it was promised to be a significant (e.g. new-feature rich) release. Has it lived up to that promise? Hoping also that it's not so buggy as to not merit an upgrade. At my workplace, folks have different versions of SQL Dev 1.X installed, each for the purpose of retaining functionality that got broken in future releases, etc. Would love to be able to advise them to retire their 1.X installs in favor of 2.1.

Dana, We are working on the query builder. We have not done anything with it in recent releases as we knew that it needed completely overhauled and a
couple of bug fixes were not going to give us the query builder we needed. Sue will be able to tell you more as the we get closer to releasing it as a feature.Thanks Barry. I know it's probably impossible to give firm dates, but my colleagues would love to know, ballpark, when query builder might be ready. Any particular year/quarter that's targeted for?
A lot of the bugs in the 2.1 are probably my fault as we decided to build a framework which allowed tasks to be scheduled like eclipse and push them to the
background. Coupled with this, we tore apart the worksheet to allow us to fit tasks in, but to also give us the ability to do some of the enhancement requests
that you guys, our users, have been asking for. While its not perfect, I believe its getting much better from both a functionality and performance standpoint. The
worksheet will not change again and there are no enhancements logged or scheduled which will do that. The issues that have come as part of 2.1 are being
addressed and we are fixing the highest priority ones as we speak. One of my priorities is to make these components as rock solid as possible.Thanks again. It really is a nice tool to work with, and I'm grateful to have it. I would choose stability for existing features over new ones, but I suppose there always has to be a balance in development. What was really scary in the past was getting bizarre / wrong answers in query results--that's a complete show stopper; e.g. clicking on a row/col intersection in a result set row would show strange and false values. New features can wait, but core functionality must be solid. If one can't presume integrity of query results, it's game over--using a version of SQL Developer that returns inconsistent result sets between runs could be Considered Harmful, or so it is to me.
Anyway, thanks for responding and I hope Oracle Corp gets you whatever assistance you need to improve the quality of existing functionality while adding new features; with one not being at the expense of the other. :-) Glad also to see Sue has authored a book on the tool. Hopefully that will drive customer demand and force increased allocation of development resources toward the product. I'd like to think having out-of-the-box tools that are a joy to use might even increase market share.
Data Modeler I would love to use, but am completely priced out of it. Enterprise Architect from Sparx Systems is the best value there so far as I can tell.

Acrobat 9 Professional: changing the default save setting as version 5 and later

The situation: We are using Acrobat 9 Professional. We have PDF files with version that was save as 5.0 or later. (We need to save it as 5.0 because it allows our PDF publications to be shown on mobile devices that don't support newer versions).
The problem:
Sometimes we need to go back to our PDF to change the front cover. However after clicking on save, Acrobat 9 reverts it to the latest version making our publications unreadable for mobile devices.
Options we have considered:
Using the save as optimized feature. This is not convenient since the file is about 2000 pages and using that feature will require it to rastersize and flattend the image on every page. It takes too long.
I am currently, planning to go back to Acrobat 8 Professional, but user would like to keep both version.
The question: Is there another way to set Acrobat 9 to save PDF as the original version it was created (that at least doesn't take that much time)?
Thank you in advance!

I mark this as an assumed answer by mistake. Still looking for an answer. I do not wish to install two versions of Acrobat. (This will be my last resort, if I don't have any other options) I try it also with Acrobat X professional and it seems that it automatically saves it to a newer version. So any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Is there a way to set the default level of keyframe easing?

I'm currently using the graph editor to smooth my ease-in / ease-out keyframes with 100% influence. I'm having to adjust the easing of each keyframe individually.
Is there a way to set the default level to 100%, so that I can just select "Easy Ease In" and have it apply without having to go into the graph editor? It would save a lot of time.

No, there's not a way to do that, but it's a good feature request. You can submit feature requests here:

I have a pop up which I can't get rid of which states: "There is no application set to open the URL ximadpzl://save_ximad_token----/"

I can't get rid of a message which keeps popping up which says:
There is no application set to open the URL ximadpzl://save_ximad_token/(etc)
I have no idea to what they are referring and I can find no application which satisfy this requirement. How do I get rid of this message? It won't go away. I have tried turning off the computer, closing Safari, etc.

All of these suggestions (delete caches, restart, terminal commands, etc) do nothing to actually LOCATE the problem. They are just standard purging processes, and they have all failed to achieve resolution. And it is NOT Little Snitch either (tried turning that off and nothing changed). All these forums on this matter have been speculative and useless.
Ladies and Gents... I have found and isolated the ACTUAL PROBLEM. It is a Safari Extension that is doing it... specifically "VideoCatcher 5.3.8" which for me was installed with MovieSherlock. The extension adds the ability to download YouTube movies directly from Safari (by showing a small download button next to any embedded movie). When I remove that extension, all the annoying pop-ups go away.
MovieSherlock is not the only utility that does this however. There are several YouTube downloaders out there that ALL install an extension that detects YouTube videos on the page. I bet my hat that many (if not all) of you who are experiencing this pop-up issue... have installed one of those downloader utilities.
So, the solution is simple: disable that extension. If you need to download a YouTube video from a page, either temporarily enable that extension again as needed, or leave the Safari integration disabled and launch the actual utility itself and enter the URL into it for your download.
I would expect that MovieSherlock and the other YouTube downloading utilities will need to update their extensions (soon?) to deal with Yosemite's new browser script management.
PROBLEM SOLVED.

QuickTime Player 10.1 no more includes the ability to save a movie file in the same format as the original movie after editing it? No, it doesn't!

Since upgraded to Lion, I have to wait for QuickTime Player 10.1 to "CONVERT" every file that I edited in it.
Yes, it might save some disk space for me.(Which is not always the case though.) But it also takes almost 10 times or more as it did when back on Snow Leopard with QuickTime Player 10.0 there I could save any file in the same format as the original movie WITH NO NEED TO CONVERT IT.
Now I have to wait like 10 minutes to delete just a few frames.(The time it takes depends upon the original size of that movie. The larger the longer.) And guess what? If you have two clips originally split up from a movie and sperately getting saved(converted actually) with a loooooooot of time, and you naively added one of them to the other's end and then saved the finished one. It converts AGAIN! Doing so back on Snow Leopard with QuickTime Player 10.0 only takes you even a few seconds only!
Seriously, are we eating Apple or dirt this time?

My existing movies are all the following types straight from FinalCut
Apple Intermediate Codec, 1920 × 1080, Millions
16-bit Integer (Little Endian), Stereo, 48.000 kHz
This particular movie is 6.66 Gb
The new Quicktime player in OS Mavericks converts these to the following format:
Apple ProRes 422, 1920 x 1080
Linear PCM, 16 bit little-endian signed integer, 2 channels, 48000 Hz
And a movie size of 6.48 Gb
It seems obvious from other forum posts this is a planned move so that everything is the "new mobile device" ready state/format. To use Marc Speth's post as material....
https://discussions.apple.com/message/23749558#23749558
this is probably about dumbing down desk top OS to that pf iPhones and iPads. This is not what I paid good money to own a Mac Book Pro for....
Today I rolled all the back to Snow Leopard. Really good move...... All those new features hey? I lost the ability to work in spaces and of course the whole Quicktime debacle.
The rolling back process was easy, restored from a point prior to installing Lion and Mavericks and the only issue was my iPhoto libraries. Thank my stars that I still had back ups that I had not converted yet.... viva la Mavericks...NOT. Apple can keep it.
Unsure if you are just venting or if there is supposed to be a question here. Basically, I assumed this to be Apple's idea of an improvement. That is, I really believe the ProRes 422 codec is a better intermediate codec than the AIC codec but most of my old HDV camcorder family tapes were imported by iMovie (for compatibility with my wife's non-FCP computer configuration) and, like your content, is/remains stored as AIC/PCM MOV files. At first I thought this might be a generalized change affecting all QT X based apps but when I went to check the latest iMovie v10.0 update, became confused when I noted that AIC source files were not automatically updated to ProRes 422 and continue to play natively in the iMovie source media viewer.
I guess this is supposed to be a logical evoluption and we were supposed to have seen the "handwriting on the wall" dating back to when Apple's first released the free ProRess "player" ProRes 422 codec. Still, it would have been nice if Apple had given some warning during the last few years so users could plan and prepare for such a drastic change. For the moment, I am just thankful that AIC remains, at least temporarily, supported nativelyby the iMovie video editor under Mavericks. Thank goodness for small favors.

I would like the ability to save a thumbnail preview for use by the OS on image export.

Hello,
I have been using Lightroom for about three years and one of the many features I would like to see is the ability to save a thumbnail for the image while exporting an image. This is an option available in other leading software, and also happens when you save an image in Photoshop. It isn't a huge issue when using a Mac because you have the option for the finder to force an image preview. It is however an issue when your client uses Windows since the OS doesn't allow the user to force a thumbnail preview.
The client is king, especially with the economy and market the way that it is. If the client wants thumbnails on their images in their OS, the photographer needs to be able to deliver. I don't expect myself or any other photographer to have to open files in Photoshop and save them to force a thumbnail for the image.
This software is in no way as expensive as Photoshop and it does have amazing features, but it is also not cheap and is intended for working professionals.

Your original links were ok, two JPGs and one PNG. BTW,the resizing wasn't necessary because the warning about it is only for viewing the photo in the message. You can always click on the photo and see the full-sized version, as long as it doesn't exceed the filesize limit, of course.
On my Windows 7, both JPGs show a Windows Picture Viewer program icon when set to the default settings, and both JPGs show a thumbnail icon when the icon-size is increased. This is a function of Windows, not the contents of the files, as far as I can tell.
No thumbnail Icons using the default view:
Thumbnail icons when switching to the next larger sized icons:
On the Mac the two images act differently, but you're asking for Mac-specific things to occur, and Adobe may choose to not do it based on it not being different on Windows.
For what Windows scenario does the PS-saved JPG show a thumbnail-icon instead of a program-icon when the LR-saved one shows only the program icon. I'm not asking about the Mac where your screenshot shows the difference, I'm asking about Windows. Is it only when you e-mail pictures or is it on the customer's hard-drive, somehow, and what is the customer using the view the images?
