How do I get safari tabs to display new facebook/twitter notifications?

Just migrated from Chrome to Safari after Chrome was doing my head in. Really like it so far but the only feature missing is facebook/twitter tabs not displaying notifications or new tweets. When I used to use chrome the tab used to say 'xxx has messaged you' or whatever, but safari doesn't do anything. Is this what safari does or is there a way around it?

the only feature missing is facebook/twitter tabs not displaying notifications or new tweets
Safari in itself does not support that feature but you can turn on Notifications in System Preferences > Notifications.
You can add Facebook and Twitter accounts in System Preferences > Mail & Contacts & Calendars
When someone has posted on your Facebook wall or tweeted, the notification will show up top right side of your screen under the Notification icon. Three black horizontal bars. Old notifications willl appear until you click the x to delete.

  • How do I get Safari to switch to new webpages on the same tab instead of opening new ones?

    Hello! Recently my Safari has been opening new tabs whenever I click on a link, which is not what I want. I just want to have a single tab open that lets me click on whatever I want and still stay on that one tab. This has never happened before, and it's really bothering me to have to close out of tabs and go back to the original where I started from.
    I'd appreciate it greatly if anyone has some advice or suggestions! Thanks!

    Okay, I'm confused. I was using Yahoo as my default search engine and as soon as I switched over to Google, it stopped. I don't understand why the search engine would make it do that, but it's whatever now that it's fixed. Thanks anyway!

  • How do I get Safari 7 to open with my tabs restored from my previous session?

    I have a new MacBook Air running Mavericks.  How do I get Safari to open with my previous tabs restored.  I used to be able to find an option in Preferences that said when you open a new window open with the tabs from my previous session.  That is no longer available to me. 

    I don't have that option in my general preferences. Even though I have Safari set to open with all windows from last session, it doesn't. I also think its very slow

    After updating to 10.6.3, I installed the 10.6.8 update just to start experiencing these font issues. HELP! How do I get the fonts to display correctly in my browsers especially (Chrome & Safari)

    What I ended up having to do was open up the Font book & remove duplicates. I knew it was Arial that was causing the problem, so I deleted the duplicate of that font. Inadvertantly I deleted all the Arial regular font, so I had to reinstall one copy. That was the solution. Thanks!

  • How can I get Safari to keep the reading list pane open all the time?

    I am really enjoying the Reading List pane in Safari. How can I get Safari to make it default that the reading pane is always open on every tab or window I open? I'm running Lion 10.7.3.
    Thanks.

    Hi Necris Rex,
    If you are having trouble keeping the leading zeros even after first formatting the cells as text and then importing the csv values (perhaps you are importing the csv via File > Open into a new document) then you can restore the leading zeros without much trouble:
    Insert a new column next to the column where the leading zeros have not imported as you want. Here I assume the original values are in column B and your new column is C.
    Put this formula in column C:  =RIGHT("00000000"&A,6) , and fill down the column.
    Select column C, command-c to copy, and, with the column still selected, Edit > Paste and Match Styles.
    Delete the original column that has the missing leading zeros.
    Replace the 6 in the formula with the number of digits you need, so the formula knows how many zeros to "pad."
    The above assumes you actually need the leading zeros back.  If you just want to display things nicely in your Numbers table, then formatting as Numeral System and setting Places to 6 (or whatever) is quick and easy, no formulas required.

  • How do I get my tabs back into the main window?

    I've had a problem with an add-on displaying a small extra window every time I open a session for some months now: I know you're supposed to try disabling and re-enabling every add-on you've got to find out which one is responsible, but this is a work computer and with all the add-ons I have, it would take too long, so I've just closed the extra window every time and got on with my work. However, for some reason today my forty-odd tabs have all opened in the small extra window, which has no tab bar, navigation bar or menu button. How do I get my tabs back into the main window of Firefox, or alternatively get that window to behave like a normal Firefox window so I can use it?

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.

    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

  • How do I get my TV to display what's on my computer screen (Not I-tunes)?

    How do I get my TV to display what's on my computer screen (Not I-tunes)?

    You have the display set in Extended Desktop mode. In System Preferences>Display on the MacBook screen there should be an Arrangement tab when you have the MacBook hooked up to the TV and both screens working. When you click the Arrangement tab do you see two monitors side by side? One of them will have a Menu Bar at the top. Just click on the Menu Bar and drag it to the second monitor. That will make the second monitor your main screen.
    You can now use your MacBook in Clamshell Mode with a wired or Bluetooth keyboard and mouse.   http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3131 When you disconnect from the TV your Menu Bar will automatically change back to the MacBook.
    Or if you want to work on the MacBook screen while showing it on a TV you can check the Mirror Display box on the lower left hand side of the Arrangement tab under the two monitors box.

  • TS1398 how do I get Safari to connect?

    How do I get Safari to work after I have connected to Wifi? The connection is on but I cannot get Safari as it says it "cannot connect". I checked all settings too. anyone can help?

    You may be connected to your wifi network but that network may not be connected to the Internet. Reboot your Wi-Fi router by turning the power off to it for 30 seconds. Then power it back on, wait until it indicates an Internet connection then start your iPad.
    You can also try quitting safari and resetting your iPad.
    Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the Safari app until it wiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal. Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

    Drag the Safari icon straight up and off the Dock so it goes, "poof" ...
    Now click and hold the Safari app in the Applications folder and drag that to the Dock.
    See if you can open a webpage in Safari.

    you may be connected to the wireless network but the question is the internet working properly on the wireless network...
    what i mean is that i can make a wireless network without the internet so i can save and share files and have other devices connected to the same network access them... but you have to make sure that your internet it running properly... may have to reconfigure the router is your using PPPOE or if it was working prior to your post then try to restart your modem... that usually resolves most issues.

  • I have signed into a new account on my itunes on my computer. How do I get the music from the new account to be displayed in my library, because I can only see the old accounts music.

    I have signed into a new account on my itunes on my windows computer. How do I get the music from the new account to be displayed in my library if only the old account's music is showing up?

    You can transfer the music purchased from iTunes Store to the computer but not music acquired somewhere else.
    Syncing is one way street, computer to iPhone. You have to use 3rd party tool to transfer music not from iTunes Store to the computer.

  • I have an ipod touch 2 and rebuilt my laptop.  Reinstalled ITUNES and can't find my applications on ITunes after login.  I tried to activate Itunes again but it didn't.  How can I get my applications to display on ITUNEs?

    I have an Ipod Touch 2 and rebuilt my laptop.  Reinstalled ITUNES and can't find my applications on ITunes after login.  I tried to activate Itunes again but it didn't.  How can I get my applications to display on ITUNEs?

    It sounds like you essentially have a new computer and unless you restored from a backup your iTunes library would be empty.  You can transfer your iTunes purchases from your iPod to the computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    SInce you changed syncing computers. after you move the stuff you need to restore the iPod to factory defaults and sync the stuff back to your iPod.  If you had the iPod backup file you could restore from backup.
    If you have non-iTunes pruchases you can copy them to your computer by using one of the third-party programs discussed in this previous discussion:
