How do I get these threads to open at the most recent post?

This is most annoying: every time I get an email notifying me that there's a new post in a thread I'm following, when I click on the link to go to that thread it sends me to the TOP of the thread and not to the post I was clicking about.
What am I doing wrong and how do I correct this?

Well, I tried it with your post, Klaus, and it seemed to work correctly. Maybe it's just me. When I see an invitation in the email to click on a link to REPLY to a message, I don't click on it, because I don't want to reply to that message. I just want to read it. I might THEN want to reply to it but I also might not. Maybe I'm just stupid that way.
In future, I'll pretend to myself that I actually want to REPLY to every post for which I receive a notification.
But each time I do that, I'll think about the cutlery drawer in the kitchen at Cupertino, and I'll wonder if all the knives in there are perfectly sharp.
Thanks, folks.

How can I get FF to alt+tab to the most recent page and not the oldest as it does in winxp and previous versions od FF?

Previous versions of FF cycle through pages in the order of most
recent first as in WinXP when ALT+TAB are pressed but now it seems that the oldest is opened first. I have toggled the item suggested in
ABOUT:CONFIG but this has no effect. there have been numerous
suggestions using addons etc. but surely there is a way to reverse
the order of ALT+TABBING by some other, easier, means.

You can set the Integer pref browser.link.open_newwindow.override.external to "1" on the about:config page.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
The browser.link.open_newwindow.override.external pref uses the same values as this pref for JavaScript window.open() calls.

How do I get IE 11 to open in the same window on the task bar?

How do I get IE 11 to open in the same spot on my task bar. i.e. IE 11 is on my task bar. When I open it, it opens in a new place on the end of the task bar. Microsoft Outlook, Windows Explorer, Quicken, Adobe, etc,, all on the task bar open
right at there location on the task bar; not in a new place at the end of the task bar.
How do I get IE 11, Windows 7, 64 bit to open at the same place as the IE icon???
Thanks

Hi,
Seems a strange issue, How about un-pin IE from the taskbar, then re-pin it to the taskbar for a test?
If doesn't work, I suggest you turn off IE 11 in "Turn Windows Features on or off", reboot PC, then re-turn on, check the result again.

How do I get my iPad to open to the lock screen and NOT the passcode panel when I open my cover

When I open the cover to my iPad Air it is open to the 4digit passcode screen and NOT my lock screen with the date and time. When I go to settings under Touch ID and passcode I see 'require passcode' immediately with a check near it. When I click on that and try to UNcheck it, nothing happens.

AirPort quits unexpectedly and a reboot is necessary to get it back. I installed the most recent AirPort software, but it didn't resolve the issue (v10.5.8). Has ideas? Thanks in advance.

Open a Finder window. Select MacintoshHD in the Sidebar on the left then open the LIbrary folder, then the Preferences folder, then the System Configuration folder.
Move all the files from the System Configuration folder to the Trash.
Restart your Mac. Try AirPort.

How to restore from a session that is not the most recent

I used the Forget button and it closed out of my windows and opened a clean window. I've started up and closed out of Firefox several times since then so using any type of 'Restore Previous Session' option won't work because the tabs I want aren't the most recent. The ones that I want were what I had before I clicked the forget button. I want to know if there's a way to restore from past sessions.

Sorry, but not. Because the function of this button is exactly like if you made clean record.
Grettings!

How to I get new tabs to open to the correct home page?

When I open new tabs they just go to a Google Search page, which is very frustrating, especially when I open a new tab and try to type in the URL bar but as soon as it finishes loading Google it blanks out what I typed in and goes to the Google site. In other words, "blank" new tabs do not open to the Favorites page or even my home page. They open to Google. How do I change that? In other words, how do I get new tabs to stop opening to Google and start opening to either my home page or the Favorites screen? Thanks!

You can modify the browser.newtab.url pref on the about:config page and set it to the desired page to open.

How do I get pop-ups to open in the same screen Firefox is on?

I have 3 monitors at work for the 10-15 programs/windows I need open all day. The problem is that my normal work requires a pop-up from our company's ticketing system, hosted on a website. That pop-up always occurs on the upper left-hand corner of the main display while Firefox is open on the second display. ***I'd like it to open in front of the current Firefox window*** instead of on a completely different display. How can I achieve this?
Before you say "Move Firefox to the main display", I'd like to add that I'm using Citrix for multiple other programs and it has the same annoying habit. I can't have them both on the same display since I need to see them both at once. I'm also trying to find a solution for Citrix doing this. Whichever app gets fixed first gets a home on the second display.

Similar question posted Monday (unsolved): [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/966422 How to open new windows on second monitor].
That user's company policy preventing using new software to solve the problem. Do you have any restrictions on possible add-ons or utilities?

In a multiple monitor situation, how do I get popup windows to open on the same monitor as the parent application is displayed.

I have two monitors. I have an application that I run all day, displayed on my secondary monitor. Whenever a popup windows is launched form that application, it always opens on the primary monitor. Very annoying. Any way to get the popup to launch in on the same monitor as the parent application?

Did you solve this problem ?

How do I get new tabs to open at the end of the tab bar rather than next to the tab i am working on?

Im running firefox 3.6.12 on a pretty dated computer. Im using Windows XP Home Edition SP3
On previous FireFox editions, opening new tabs from pages Im working on, used to appear at the end of the list of tabs. Now when I open it, it appears right next to me.
Is there a way of altering this setting? I often open multiple tabs from the same page by clicking a link with the mouse wheel and I like to work through them in the order I clicked them. This is usualy for comparing things like holidays, car insurance etc
thankyou

You can change a preference to make tabs open
# at the end of all open tabs
# immediately after the current tab.
See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/About:config
*Type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and press the Enter key.
*If you see the warning, accept it (promise to be careful).
*Filter = browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent
*Look at the "Value" column ('''false'''=open at end, '''true'''=open after current tab); Value = true is the default.
*Double-click that preference to toggle the value from true to false, or false to true
*Restart Firefox (File > Restart Firefox)

How do I get App Tabs to open on the bookmarked location rather than the last visited one?

For example, I have YouTube as an App Tab. Every time I open firefox the last think I was watching on YouTube starts playing again. I would really like to set it so the App Tabs open on whatever page I originally set them for.

Just make sure that you open any new links in a new tab and not in the App tab. 
There are tab related extensions that can protect or lock tabs to prevent them from getting changed, but opening a link in a new tab with a middle-click or Ctrl + left-click isn't that much extra effort.

HOW CAN I GET NEW LINKS TO OPEN IN THE EXISTING TAB?

When clicking on a link, I would like it to open in the SAME tab. I have not been able to accomplish this no matter how I set the tab options. Can anyone help?

How I can get a JFrame to open in the middle of the screen?

Okay, I have been looking for an answer on how I can make a JFrame open in the center of the screen like the JOptionpane's "null" argument does. Maybe, I am putting the wrong words in the search but I can't find any help on this.
Thanks
***Sample***
import java.awt.FlowLayout;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JLabel;
public class JFrameProb extends JFrame
 private JLabel someText;
 private JLabel someText2;
 private JLabel someText3;
 public JFrameProb()
 super("Why is this always going to the Corner?");
 setLayout( new FlowLayout() );
 someText = new JLabel("This Window Popped open in the top-left Corner...");
 add(someText);
 someText2 = new JLabel("Is there a way to open in the Center of the Screen?");
 add(someText2);
 someText3 = new JLabel("I know JOptionPane does.");
 add(someText3);
}

How do I get numbers spreadsheets to open at the last entry?

I work with Numbers spreadsheets often and find it very frustrating that on opening a document it opens at the top rather than at the last place of entry. My frustration is that some of the spreadsheets I work with are fairly long and require me to then scroll down a long way to pick up the spot I want to work in. Any ideas would be gratefully appreciated. Thanks in advance

Hi Barry,
the view scale bug was on the list for an early fix
Fixed in the latest update (Numbers 3.0.1)
Numbers > Preferences > General > Default Zoom:
And it sticks with a document after Save . Reopen shows the Saved view.

Ian.

How can I get my Report to open on the fist tab always when file opened

Hi,
I have one report with mutiples tabs, however I would like my file SWF/PDF to always open on the fist tab. Any ideas?

I believe the SWF will open to whichever tab you had active at the time you exported the dashboard. So if you want your SWF to always open to the first tab, just make sure that the first tab is the active tab when you export your dashboard to a SWF.
Hope this helps,
Jeff
