How do i set my homepage
I am trying to set my homepage to google.com and I can seem to find the setting if there is one available.
thanks for any and all help!
Hi marcsances,
''Maybe you can go to about:config and change browser.startup.homepage to your desired value.''
I did test that last week, but it doesn't seem to have any effect on the startup screen.

How do I set the homepage in 10.9.3?
In General Preferences there is no longer the facility to set the homepage in Mavericks (10.9.3). Sop how is this now done?
Are you talking about Safari? The option to specify a homepage is still there in the app's preferences.

How can i set a homepage in ff mobile?
Cant find a place for the default homepage url on FF mobile Nokia n900
You don't set a homepage in FF for Android. It always starts with about:home showing your most visited sites. Check this article for more information.

When Firefox starts up I would rather have a blank page for the homepage if I didn't have any tabs from my previous session to open up. There doesn't seem to be an option for this. The choice is to either reopen last session tabs OR blank page but does not seem to allow for "if no last session tabs, then open blank page" If it does, then please tell me how.
It would seem if your choose "Show my windows and tabs from last time" '''''and''''',
*when you last closed Firefox, you had no web site open (just a blank tab), that it would open just that blank tab
*when you last closed Firefox, you had one or more tabs/web site open, that would allow you to "Restore Previous Session"
#Have you tried that?
#If so, what is happening in each circumstance when you reopen Firefox?
'''Restore Previous Session'''<br />
Open tabs are automatically saved when closing Firefox beginning in Firefox 4. To open your last session, after Firefox starts, click History > Restore Previous Session. For this to work

How do i set a homepage in safari on ipad
I clicked on the left arrow at the top as suggested but all I got was instructions for firefox. I am using explorer
When you tap the Arrow icon next to the URL field on the Safari toolbar, this is what should pop up. Do you see Add to Home Screen right in the middle of this pop up?

How can I set the page that will open, when I open a new tab, to be the same as the homepage?
An app changed it to some other search engine, before installing the app, I the tab that would open was the homepage I set.
In my case it is Google, and I want my new tabs to open on Google like they did before the installation.
thank you,
Asaf Privman.You can middle-click or Ctrl left-click the Home button on the Navigation toolbar to open the Home page in a new tab.
You can look at one of these extensions:

So I know how to set my homepage to open multiple tabs, however it has the undesired effect of making it so those tabs are opened every time I hit the homepage button. Is there a way to set Firefox to open multiple pages on start-up, while not actually setting the homepage to open multiple tabs?
You can edit a copy of the Firefox desktop shortcut and add the links to the target field to make Firefox open those pages when you use this shortcut.
See:
*https://developer.mozilla.org/Command_Line_Options
If you run out of space (i.e. exceed the maximum length) then use a CMD file with the start command.
*start "" "<path_to_firefox\firefox.exe>" URL1 URL2

How to set the HomePage and FolderSize of a managed folder?
Recently, I deside to get the FolderSize and HomePage of a managed folder throw GetFolder operation in EWS, but the FolderSize and the HomePage always not present.
Unfortunately, I could not set these two element directly in Exchange management shell like "StorageQuota".
I tried to create some items in the managed folder, but I also could not get the FolderSize.
How can I do next? Is there anybody know the ways to set the HomePage and FolderSize of a managed folder?Hi,
We can use the Set-OrganizationConfig -ManagedFolderHomepage command to specify the homepage. To limit the managed folder size, we can use the StorageQuota parameter with the New-ManagedFolder command.
Here is a related article about the Set-OrganizationConfig command for your reference.

Whenever I open up Safari, it opens up what I exited out of instead of my homepage. How do I set it up so that it does not do this?
A few approaches are possible.
To prevent the "resume" feature of Safari you can either option-quit it, or hold shift down when starting it.
To prevent the "resume" feature for all applications you can uncheck the box "Restore windows..." in System Preferences, General.
