Highlight color when using Find 2

Hello
I have the same problem as mumbles (in http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2257163&#2257163): When I do Find in Safari and look for a word, it highlights the search term in a very light blue that I can barely see. — Just that I don't want to have the highlight color set to, say, strong red systemwide, since this is useful with the find command on a web page, but bothersome in all other cases. Is there a way to change this in Safari only? (I'm afraid there isn't, for it seems tied to the system, but maybe I'm as wrong here as I often am … )
thanks a lot

Hi Nikolai
I know what you mean - one tip is instead of clicking the next button from the Find box, press enter on your keyboard. For me , this highlights the word rather more visibly & you can use the shortcut Command G ( Apple key + G ) to search for the next instance.
I have the system highlight colour set to a muted Orange & the overall appearance set to Blue & find this to be an excellent compromise - although clicking the Next button still gives a highlight in some impossible-to-see grey/blue.
Is there a way to change this in Safari only
Not so far as I know - sorry.

  • Open PDF's in new window in document library when using "Find a file" search

    I need to be able to open PDF's in a new window from a document library when using the "Find a file" search built into the document library "All documents" view. I currently have the following javascript on the page:
    _spBodyOnLoadFunctionNames.push("setTargetBlank()");
    function setTargetBlank()
    { $("a[href$='.pdf']").removeAttr('onclick').attr("target", "_blank");
    This works great when going to the document library and navigating through the folders then clicking on a link.
    The problem is when someone goes to the document library then uses the "Find a file" search and then they click on a link. The "Find a file" search does not do a postback (reload) of the page, therefore my javascript to find the PDF links
    and make them open in a new window does not run for the links on the page.
    I have read the following article but this does not seem to offer a solution that will work in this situation for SharePoint 2013 (Office 365): http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/7ad3224c-3165-47ae-95bc-4f3928e2f9a8/opening-document-library-pdf-in-a-new-window-sharepoint-2013?forum=sharepointgeneral
    I suppose the idea solution would be to somehow tap into the event that is fired when using "Find a file" search to run my javascript and update the links for the search results.
    Can anyone offer any solutions to this issue?

    Hi,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to open PDF files in a new window from a document library when using the "Find a file" search.
    As you said, the "Find a file" search does not do a postback (reload) of the page, therefore JavaScript to find the PDF links and make them open in a new window does not run for the links on the page.
    I recommend to use JS link to achieve the goal. Create a JavaScript override file and upload the JavaScript file to the Master Page Gallery, and then set the JS Link property of the document library web part to point to the JavaScript file.
    Here are some links about the JS link in SharePoint 2013 for you to take a look:

  • How to prevent email when using find my iphone

    Hi there,
    Am I the only that finds the email confirmations annoying when using find my iPhone?
    Is there any way to prevent these emails, or a preference somewhere to turn them off?

    Apple:
         Considering the threads here and on other Internet sites, this is clearly a safety issue.  As a parent who uses this feature on my children's phone - this feature should be optional.  Notifying the bad guy when you are searching for your phone/child is not an option.  Thank you.

  • I accidentaly clicked "remove" when using find my iphone...how do I log in when my iphone is not with me to find it?

    i was using "find my iphone" and when given the location it was an old location. A post read that the iphone was either turned off or the wifi was not being used. A remove or cancel  button appears with this message. I accidentally clicked cancel and now when trying to retrive information about the location of my device it says that I must refresh page or set up instructions. There must be a way to reinstate my account without my device physically present but I do not know how...can someone help me?

    What ever device you still have on had.  Go to settings - general - about - name - then the name.
    I have 4 devices 2 iphone and ipad - which I've name differently so I don't get confused when using find my iphone.

  • Why can't I see my media in the left sidebar when using finder?

    I recently made the switch to Mac and I have some confusion. When using finder, I am not getting an option to browse through my media such as photos, videos and music. How do I get these folders to appear on my sidebar?
    Thankyou.

    I then went into my finder preference section and changed my "New finder window show" to my computer's name.  At that point I could view and find anything within it.  this part got the job done. 
    "You don't, they only appear in open file dialogs and in tool panels like in iMovie, iPhoto.
    To view your media, you open the app that you use to manage that type of media." this on the other hand was zero help
    What you did doesn't show the Media Browser. It just shows the folders where your media is stored. You may be correct that was all that cobacc wanted. 
    The Media Browser shows the actual media in thumbnails so that you can preview the media.
    However, neither requires any Sharing services to be enabled.

  • Keep layout position when using Find/Change?

    When using Find/Change in InDesign CS4, each occurrence of the "Found" material is centered in the window, so the page moves around with each find. Is there a way to keep the page in a fixed position when searching through a document?

    Actually, I can think of a shortcut for the hard part: The user uses the
    regular find/change UI to make all their settings. Then, they run the
    script, which will simply use the settings in the UI. Nice, huh! So you
    could get a listBox of all the finds -- select the entry and you get
    taken to the desired location. Click the "change" button and the change
    is made. Here's a proof of concept:
    #targetengine engine20
    var myFinds = app.findText();
    var w = new Window("palette");
    var myList = w.add("listbox", undefined, myFinds);
    var changeButton = w.add("button", undefined, "Change");
    myList.onChange = gotoFound;
    changeButton.onClick = makeTheChange;
    w.show();
    function gotoFound(){
    app.select(myFinds[myList.selection.index].parentTextFrames[0].parent.parent);
         app.select(myFinds[myList.selection.index]);
    function makeTheChange(){
         myFinds[myList.selection.index].changeText();
    Obviously very rudimentary: but this does work in CS4. If the list is
    too long, though, the change button will disappear off the bottom of the
    screen. Also, really once the change is made, the item should be removed
    from the list, but there's a bug in CS4 that makes it impossible to do
    that simply, if I recall correctly (or was that only a tree list?)
    Also, I have found that the only sure way of getting the entire spread
    to show is as I've done it above (and it would need much more error
    checking than this -- for instance, overset text).

  • Change Preview's  highlight color when seraching PDF files.

    I cannot see the gray highlight color when searching for key words in pdf files.
    How can I change the color to something that is visible?
    Or should I just forget preview for pdf files & get acrobat reader?

    I sort of changed mine to Red in 10.4.11 for the same reason.
    Quit Preview, paste this into Terminal window & press enter...
    defaults write com.apple.Preview AppleHighlightColor "1.0 0.0 0.0"
    The values are R G B in 0 to 1 scale.
    Start Preview, now do a search, press Tab, the search will show in Red Highlight, but not in the PDF it's self.
    Adobe Reader will highlight within the PDF in a better color.
    On searching through PDFs, might see...

  • Dreamweaver CC generates one of 3 error messages when using find and replace on Win 8.1 64 bit.

    Dreamweaver CC generates one of 3 error messages when using find and replace is used more than twice in succession. "While executing onLoad in bc_afterSave.htm, the following JavaScript error(s) occurred: At line 188 of file C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe|Adobe DreamweaverCC|Configuration|Shared|BC\JS\bc_sites.js": out of memory"
    or
    While executing runCommand in File_Save.htm, a JavaScript erroroccurred.
    or
    While exciting getDynamicContent inAdressURL.htm, a Javascript erroroccirred.
    Any thoughts - I end up closing DWCC and reopening. Will work for two additional Find and Replace before the error messaged\s popup again.

    Thanks Jon. I tried all of those solutions before posting. Same problem. It seems that the problem is tied to DWCC. Do not have the problem when using DW6 on Win8.1. When running DWCC on a Win7 pc, we get the same error message. When running DW6 on Win 7, f&c works fine. It seems to be a bug in DWCC. DWCC works flawlessly on our Macs.
    The same steps apply to DWCC, you just need to choose the CC folders rather than the DWCS4-6 versions that the page talks about. The layout of CC's folders hasn't changed from the older versions which is why, I think, Adobe hasn't updated the troubleshooting page as of yet.
    As Nancy mentions, a 38,500 page site is sort of ridiculously large for a static website, that could be part of the problem, but your response quoted above leads me to think you may have tried the troubleshooting steps in the wrong version of the program. Could you confirm that?
