How can I enable the center mouse click to open and close tabs in Firefox and Chrome?

I have a MacBook Pro Model A1261 purchased in 2009. On my other mac at work (and my PC) I can center click to open a link in a new tab while in Chrome or FireFox, and also to close a tab by clicking on it in the tabs at the top. I am using an external USB mouse on my MacBook Pro and when I click the center scroll wheel it brings up the dashboard. I looked in the settings but wasn't able to find a way to change that setting for the center button to open and close tabs in my web browser. Is there a way? Please help!

You can restore the zoom feature by changing the values of the related prefs on the <b>about:config</b> page.
* browser.gesture.pinch.in -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReduce</b>
* browser.gesture.pinch.in.shift -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReset</b>
* browser.gesture.pinch.out -> <b>cmd_fullZoomEnlarge</b>
* browser.gesture.pinch.out.shift -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReset</b>
* browser.gesture.pinch.latched -> <b>false</b>

    The iPhone does not store email addresses for received mail. The iPhone stores all email addressees for sent mail in a list of previous recipients. The list of previous recipients is not synced with Outlook or any address book, but the list of previous recipients is included with the iPhone's backup which is updated by iTunes as the first step during the iTunes sync process. The auto-addrss feature pulls from your contacts on the iPhone and from the list of previous recipients.
    Different from the Mail.app on a Mac, there is no access to the list of previous recipients on the iPhone to remove a previous recipient from the list, or to add a previous recipient to contacts that is not already entered - not at the present time anyway.
    The only way to purge the existing list at the present time is by restoring your iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup.
    Hopefully access to the list of previous recipients will be included with the iOS 5 update.

    Hi to all, How can I enable the Dashboards in the UCM 10G ?

    There was a component (I can't remember its name) that added a dashboard. Note that it was not a supported component, so you had to take it as it is, or create your own.

    This is usually caused by one or more bookmarks having a long title.
    You can check that folder in the Library and shorten long names.

  • How can I change the Microsoft Office Click to Run from drive letter 'Q' to something else?

    How can I change the Microsoft Office Click to Run from drive letter 'Q' to something else?
    We have a legacy app that used drive letter 'Q' already, now the newer machines are coming in with 'Q' preassigned to Microsoft Office Click to Run, and it is causing problems.  There has to be a way to change the drive letter assignment to some
    other letter besides 'Q' 

    Hi,
    Office that is delivered by Click-to-Run is installed on the Q drive, this cannot be changed.
    To work around this problem, uninstall the Click-to-Run version of Office and then install with the traditional MSI-based installation.
    To switch to using an MSI-based Office edition, you can learn something useful from this link below:

  • How can I enable the ability to create links when editing site text in BC?

    I am about to launch my first BC site for a client. I built the site using Muse. The client needs to update text and pics on their own using BC, which is fine, but when editing text, they are unable to create a link to another page. How can I enable the ability to create links when editing site text in BC? I can apparently do this in this post, but I don't see a way to do this for their site.

    Grid control should be used if you have multiple dbs to manage.
    But if you still want to install dbconsole, you can use dbca as already mentioned. it's much easier to do that using dbca.
    With the manual method, you create the repository via emca -repos create.
    Then you configure it using emca -config dbcontrol db. This will ask for sys passwords, ports setting etc...

  • HT4796 How can I take the files that were migrated from my PC to my Mac and add all those files to my current user instead of having 2 users?

    How can I take the files that were migrated from my PC to my Mac and add all those files to my current user instead of having 2 users? Having to log out just to sign in on a different user to access the files is absurd.
    Do I make all the files sharable to all the NOW users on the mac then just delete the files? Or can i erase my account that I made when starting up my new mac and then just use the one with the transferred files?
    I just dont want to have to og in and out of 2 different accounts .. Help please.         
    -Nina

    Sorry. /Users is a folder path. It would be similar to C:\Users (if that exists on Windows).
    So, in the Finder, select Computer from the Go menu.
    You'll see Macintosh HD, double-click that to open it.
    In there you'll see several folders. One is Users. That is where all the user Home folders exist. Select the other account's home folder and go to step 3.
    If you have any more confusion, please stop and ask. We'll get there.
    If you feel more comfortable, you can just log into that other account and move the files into /Users/Shared.
    Then, log into the account you wish to use and copy the files from the Shared folder and paste them into your Home folder, wherever they belong, Documents, Music, Pictures, etc.  That just takes a little more work. Transferring them into Shared, and then copying into your home sets the permissions on the files so that you won't have a problem accessing them later. The steps I provided just prevent you from having to do the double move, since you are not going to use the old account once you are done.
    Quick unix shorthand. If someone gives you a file path that begins with a /, that means the root of the hard drive, ie Macintosh HD (if you haven't renamed it). The path separator in unix is /, not \.
    A path that starts with ~/ means your Home folder, the one inside /Users named with your account name.

    Entries in the location bar drop down list with a yellow (blue on Mac) star at the right end are bookmarks.<br />
    You can remove such a bookmarked item that shows in the list if you open that url in a tab and click the yellow star in the location bar.<br />
    This will open the "Edit This Bookmark" dialog and you can click the Remove button to remove the bookmark if you want to remove such a bookmarked entry.<br />
