Home Page Question

Hi Guys,
Appreciate your help on what I assume is an easy solution and probably is a stupid question. There are items on the home page that I would like to delete or move from the 2nd page to the 1st (or vice versa). Can't figure out how to do that. Any advice is appreciated.

By holding any icon for a short while, all icons will appear to wobble, then they can be dragged about to be ordered in any way you wish. By dragging an icon to the edge of the screen the iPhone will allow the icon to be placed into the next home screen.

Home Page - Dumb Question

Is there a "home" icon somewhere that I am missing? Is the only way to return to your home page on Safari other than the keyboard strokes? In the help menu, it says to click home button on toolbar, but I can't seem to locate the button.
Thanks

Hi Derek,
Under Safari, View menu, click on Customize toolbar, from the drop down window drag the house like Icon to the address bar, the default addy bar does not include it.
Hope this helps answer your question.

Browser Questions: Getting to home page and reordering bookmarks?

Have two quick questions about the Playbook Browser (which is awesome, by the way!)
1. How do you get back to your configured home page once you've been surfing around? I see no "Home" button anywhere. Is there a gesture or something that will take you home? I know you can open a fresh tab and go home (if you have it configured that way) but surely there is a way to just go to your home page?
2. How do you reorder the bookmarks in your list? Everyone always loads their most used ones first, and then gradually add other stuff as you think about it. This puts everyone's favorites down at the bottom. I've tried dragging them when in edit mode, but it doesn't seem to do anything..
Thanks!

new tab can show home page if you want it to in options.

Not at this time.

11g Home page link questions

A couple of questions about the links on the OBIEE 11g Home page, in the Get Started section:
1. The Introduction to Oracle BI and Oracle BIEE Documentation links both go to the same place: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/index.htm. Is that the intended behavior? Two adjacent links that do the same thing?
2. Clicking the Help Contents ... Oracle BI Publisher link brings up a website login screen for http://localhost:9704/xmlpserver/help/help.jsp. First of all, why would a help site be protected by a login screen? Second, what login can be used to gain access to this site? I've tried every login in my system, including the weblogic login, and it doesn't seem to like any of them.

Clarification and more information:
On the 11g Home page, under the Get Started... section, there is a Help Contents link. Clicking that link reveals three choices for online help, one of which is BI Publisher.
View ... Page Source reveals that the link for BI Publisher should go to: http://localhost:9704/analytics/saw.dll?xmlpObjectTasks&Action=help
However, clicking that BI Publisher link opens a new window that shows the URL http://localhost:9704/xmlpserver/help/help.jsp. And THAT webpage is presenting me with a login screen for BI Publisher 11.1.1.3.0, a login screen that doesn't recognize any combination of userid / password that I know of.
Copying and pasting the URL http://localhost:9704/analytics/saw.dll?xmlpObjectTasks&Action=help into the browser displays that same login screen and ...help/help.jsp URL.
Copying and pasting just this much of the URL http://localhost:9704/analytics/saw.dll?xmlpObjectTasks produces a page with these four rows of text:
OBIPS11r+zOr4YIeuQ
{t:5}r+zOr4YIeuQ
<script type="text/javascript" src="res/b_mozilla/bipublisher/catalogactionhandler.js"></script>
<script>obips.bipublisher.setSessionInfo("/xmlpserver");</script>
So it appears that the xmlpObjectTasks is indeed requesting a login screen from BI Publisher.
Which brings me full-circle to my original questions:
1. Why should we have to log in to BI Publisher just to read its online help?
2. Having made every possible guess of anything reasonable, I have no more guesses, and I'm asking what this login screen is looking for in terms of userid/password?
and...
3. Is the Home page possibly just pointing to the wrong location?

I guess this is a "settings" question. I have tried all of the fixes you suggest to get rid of the "Firefox Was Recently Updated" window popping up as my home page. Anything else to try.

My normal home page no longer comes up when I start browsing. Your introductory page comes up and stays up, along with asking me a question about allowing information gathering.

That probably won't help if you have other software running that is protecting the file(s) in the Firefox Profile Folder.
Which security software (firewall, anti-virus) do you have?<br />
Does it have any virtualization or sandbox features?
You can try to boot windows in Save mode (F8 on boot screen) to see if that makes it possible to remove the file.
You can also try a new profile to see if that works.<br />
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

AVG Secure Search appears when I use Google Search from my Home page only.

My home page is the Firefox default page with the Google searchbar. I like getting occasional messages from Firefox when I log in so I don't want to change my homepage. However, when I use the searchbar ''on my homepage only'', I get the unsatisfactory AVG Secure Search results.
UPDATE: I now realize all the troubleshooting information I included in my original question appears under the "More System Details" link next to the question, not in the body of the question. I have copied it here to make it easier to see what I have already done to try to solve the problem, as well as describe the one clue I have that may be relevant:
I have tried all the fixes on various threads, but my about:config is now pristine (no avg or isearch mentions; keyword.url is default). Closest solution is that at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/866327 , which requires changing my home page.
Oddly, AVG Secure Search is ''not'' a problem when I use the Google toolbar or search from the Google website, only when I use the search bar that appears on my home (start) page. This is true even when I return to my home page--if I search from the Google search bar in the middle of the page, I get sent to AVG Safe Search. (isearch.avg.com).
I read in one thread a suggestion to delete my chromeappsstore.sqlite file in my Profile folder. As promised, Firefox created a new one when I restarted it; however, the search bar in the middle of my home home page did not work at all. Tried this three times before restoring my original.
I do not have an application that will open a sqlite file, but I tried doing so in Excel and found a cell containing the following:
emoh.:moz-safe-aboutsearch-engine{"name":"AVG Secure Search","searchUrl":"http://isearch.avg.com/search?cid={7A3C25A0-E345-4507-AA31-D98F596A81A9}&mid=c48135235ba247d18ac1d14b344db451-addd29eab2809954d5abdf0b991a5b911a297819&ds=is015&lang=en&v=10.0.0.7&pr=sa&d=&sap=dsp&q=_searchTerms_"}
I have no clue what that means, but it is the only thing I can find related to Firefox that still mentions AVG and isearch.avg.com.
At this point my best guess (but it is a guess) is that the chromeappsstore.sqlite file is a key to the complete solution, but I do not have enough knowledge to go beyond and address it. I appreciate any help you anyone can offer.

Here is the way to get rid of the problem once and for all:

I want name on address bar goes to home page, not search engine

Just today I hooked up a new modem/router that I purchased at a WIndstream store. I have been browsing the internet for years with Firefox. I have changed the keyword.url setting in my Firefox configuration (see https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/833252#answer-197476) so that the new version would act like the old version and go directly to the webpage when the name was typed in the address bar. For example: when I type in "windstream" (no ".net" or".com") I would go directly to windstream' home page.
However, when I hooked up my new modem/router I my browser is hijacked and goes to a Windstream search page. I have tried everything from re-installing Firefox, re-changing the "keyword.url" setting, I even tried the Firefox ad-on here (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/browse-by-name/).
All to no avail......there is something that has changed by adding Windstream's hardware and connecting to their network that will not allow me to use this function of Firefox.
Nothing else changed, but a new piece of hardware.....
Changed keyword.url to : http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=
Re-installed Firefox after cleaning all history and cookies.
Tried the add-on "Browse by name"
Wasted my time calling Windstream tech support.
Changed to openDNS
Tried to disable the feature through Windstream's web page, but then it just happens with the new search engine.

Opt-out of Windstream's search service: Type in something to get their sneaky web search page to come up, then click the tiny link at the bottom right "about this page". That sends you to a page where you can opt-out of their service.
To opt-out from their "valuable" sneaky service, you have to choose to opt-in to another search service.
You have to do this with each browser. And it still sends you to your search engine's results page, not to your URL the way you might want it to.
I would rather the default be to allow me to opt-in if I choose to, not have to jump through hoops to find out how to opt-out. It's taken me weeks to discover this. Annoying!

Firefox will not keep igoogle as my home page. I have done all of the steps to do so but every time I log off and then comeback, google is gone. This is a new problem; igoogle on Firefox has been my homepage for years.

iGoogle has been my homepage for years. All of a sudden when I logon I now get the Firefox welcome page not Google. I have done all of the steps Firefox indicates to make iGoogel my home page but it keeps reverting to Firefox after I logoff.

Publishing a BI-report as a Widget on the CRM home page

Hello,
I'm trying to publish a BI-report on the CRM home page in the WebUI.
I've created a Widget link and added the widget to the home page.
As URL for the widget I've entered the following code:
[http://electro.marvel.local:50000/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/pcd!3aportal_content!2fcom.sap.pct!2fplatform_add_ons!2fcom.sap.ip.bi!2fiViews!2fcom.sap.ip.bi.bex?TEMPLATE=ZCRM_APP_SURV_DEMO]
When I log on to the WebUI, the Widget is displayed with the logon screen for the BI-system. (I have not set up single-sign on.)
When I log on to BI, the browser goes crazy and just refreshes and refreshes.
What could be the issue here?
Kind regards
Johan Wigert

Hi Johan,
I'm trying to do the same and I have 2 questions:
1) How do you create URL for a Widget?
2) What was the issue and how did you fix it?
Thanks,

The latest version of Firefox loads with the Ask page and doesn't retain the selected home page. How do I change this?

I downloaded the latest Firefox version. Upon loading it it doesn't retain the previous Home Page setting and always reverts to the Ask page, which is always indicated as the Home Page. This is annoying. How do I overcome this problem?

How to Get My Dashboard as Default Page Instead of Home Page in OBIEE 11G?

Hello Gurus,
I have one requirement where i need to change default page to "My Dashboard" like what we had in OBIEE 10G ?
Rite-now in OBIEE 11G when any user logs in they are directed to "Home" Page, but i want to change the navigation to "My Dashboard" for all user..
I know the option to in My Account and Change the Default dashboard in Preferences , but it's manual way to do it for all end-users.
and the other is to create the PORTALPATH Variable and do it from RPD.
So I am looking to some other way there we can change the navigation path from system file itself...
Thanking You..

Hello David,
Thanks for reply.
Actually I am just concern abt the OBIEE Dashboard page, the link that u have mentioned is for Application Server, where we can manage the multiple Application Portals.
and it also doesn't come with Middleware that we are installing for OBIEE.
so i did get some useful information but not related to my question.
is there any place in EM(Enterprise Manager) or Console(Admin Console) from where we can manage the Default Portal for OBIEE Users?
Thanking You..

Why won't my Firefox open with my home page instead of a blank tab?

The browser always opens in a new tab even when I have it set to open in my home page. When I have Firefox set as my default browser it opens in a new blank tab when I click a link in a document or email. The only time I get my home page on opening Firefox, is if the browser is already open and I choose to open a new window. However, when I do that I lose my yahoo toolbar settings for the newly opened window. Yes, I have tried removing cookies, and that does not work. This problem is exasperating, I do not like IE, but I use it because it opens links without my having to keep the browser open all the time.

Hi tigerleatoo, I'm not sure I understand your question.
When you launch Firefox using its program icon, you should get your preference from the following tab:
orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > General > "When Firefox starts"
So in your case, you should see your home page(s).
When Firefox is completely closed and you launch it using a link in email or a document, Firefox usually will ONLY open that linked page and nothing else. Are you getting a blank tab in addition? Do you want your home page in addition?
Is the problem that you want external links to open a new window when Firefox is already running?
Firefox tries to follow your preference for new tabs vs. new windows for both internal and external links.
In other words, if you have set Firefox to open new windows in a tab here:
orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > Tabs
Then external links will usually open in an existing window rather than in their own window.
There is a way to split these so they behave differently, but because the steps are detailed, I won't burden you with those unless you need them.

How do I open with an animated gif and then go to home page?

I apologize for the newbie question, but I would like to have
an animated gif intro to a web page. Is it possible to have the gif
play and then go to the index file? Or do I need to insert the gif
into an index file and save the home page as something different?
If so, how do I get it to go to the home page automatically?
Any help is appreciated.

>I apologize for the newbie question, but I would like to

This is called a 'splash page'. To do it, you'll make your
default home page
(index.html/default.html/whatever) this splash page, then
you'll have then
sent to whatever other page you want it to go to...either via
a HREF or a
META REFRESH tag.
You can't actually time the refresh to coincide with the gif
finishing it's
animation, though. For that, you'd have to use Flash
animation.
But keep in mind that this technique is pretty much frowned
upon these days.
It's an unecessary barrier betwen your users and your content
and is seen by
many as a rather dated/amateur technique.
