How do I set up a specific homepage for Safari on my iPhone?

How do I set up a specific page to be the page that opens every time I open Safari on my iPhone?  I saw that you go to Preferences, but I can't find where that is?  What are the steps from there?  Thanks.

It actually is the answer to the question. Safari on the iPhone is not designed to allow for the setting of a home page. The only method to do it is what the last posted told you. That is how iOS handles the setting of a page, other than a bookmark in Safari. If you have a particular page you want to always open to in Safari, use the method described above which sets a shortcut on the home screen that you use instead of the regular Safari icon to start Safari.
It could be considered a workaround, depending on how you view it.

  • How do I set up a specific playlist for songs so only those sync on A-TV??

    I have a huge number of songs on my Itunes library and I don't want the Apple TV (A-TV) to use so much space for all those songs - I prefer to save it for my video and movies. How can I set up a specific play list on Itunes for A-TV and then when I sync my A-TV - only that playlist goes over.
    Hopefully someone has an idea for me. Hope everyone had a great holiday.

    Dear Winston,
    Thanks so much. It seems much easier after reading it. I did not have those tabs originally which was confusing... Once I clicked the correct preferences, the tabs came up. Now I am resyncing everything which will take time but I see it working.
    Thanks for your help Mr. Churchill....

  • How do you set a default screen size for safari windows to open at ?

    Hi guys, I'm running my mac mini through a 50 inch plasma. I really like that safari opens the browser at a size that's just big enough to fit the page you are viewing to; but annoyingly my flatmate keeps changing the window size to full screen. I don't like this and have tried to play around with the settings so that it opesn in a default size every time but have been unable to do so.
    If anyone has any suggestions it'd be greatly apreciated as this seemingly stupid problem is realllllly annoying me.
    Cheers,
    AJ

    Evict your flatmate.

  • How do I set up a seperate account for my wife?

    We finally purchased a nice new iPhone for my wife. But she would like her own iTunes account. How do I set up a seperate account for her? She has her own laptop, with an iTunes account on it that I was using. Should I just un-install that iTunes package and have her download a new version? I'd rather have two versions so I don't lose the music on that old iTunes account. It's not huge, but would be a PITA.

    Go to iTunes > Store > Sign Out (your apple id) and sign your wife apple id in.

    How do I set Firefox to be usable for all users on one computer?

    I would think the about:config entries discussed are ex-factory set to values each user has to change individually, after the installation has run its course. The solution could be to have patched files ready to install post factum:

  • How do i set up a second display for my iMac desktop?  I want to use both displays at the same time.

    how do i set up a second display for my iMac desktop?  I want to use both displays at the same time.  My iMac is the 24" Late 2006 model.  I recall that there is a cord for plugging in a second monitor, but I want to make sure that i can use both monitors side-by-side at the same time.  thank you.

    If the Display supports DVI, then you will need a > Mini-DVI to DVI Adapter and a DVI cable.
    If the Display only supports VGA, then you wiil need a > Mini DVI to VGA Adapter and a VGA cable.
    Noting that the (digital) DVI is far better than the (analog) VGA connection.

  • How do I set the default welcome page for PUBLIC user

    gurus,
    i'm using -
    Oracle 9i Database
    Oracle 9ias Portal Release 2
    QUESTION => how do I set the default welcome page for the PUBLIC user.
    i did the following to achieve this -
    1. logged into portal
    2. clicked on builder
    3. clicked on administer tab
    4. selected PUBLIC user in the Portal User Profile portlet
    5. went to the preferences tab
    6. in the default home page selected a custom page group
    7. logged out of portal
    8. open a new browsere session
    9. type the portal URL and i get the login page ....??
    i'm unable to understand this behavior ... shouldn't i be getting the page group that i set for the PUBLIC user in step 6 above ....
    the second QUESTION is => when the user logs out he/she should see the PUBLIC page set in step 6 above ... but, instead the user sees a page that is as follows -
    Partner Application Name Logout Status [Logout Status]
    Oracle Portal (portal) logout status
    The SSO Server (orasso) checkmark
    buzz.resva.trw.com:7778 checkmark
    infrastructure.happy.resva.trw.com checkmark
    portal1.buzz.resva.trw.com checkmark
    portal2.sylvester.resva.trw.com checkmark
    sylvester.resva.trw.com:7778 checkmark
    so, how can i set the default page for the PUBLIC user and also a page when he user logs out.
    ideas anyone ....?
    thanx a bunch.
    hero

    Hi,
    The sequence of operation you are doing to set the home page for public users is correct. You are getting the login screen as the "custom page group" selected as "home page" has not been granted to public.
    Also, while logging-out, it is normal behaviour to get the screen where it shows the list of partner applications from where user has been logged-out. When you click on "Return" button, you will get to the "home page" set above.
    Hope it clarifies the things.
    Regards,
    Ved

  • HT2731 How do I set up an Apple ID for a child with gift card credit

    How do I set up an Apple ID for a chld with a gift card credit, without credit card details and without using my own account?

    Go to the main iTunes Store page (within iTunes),  click on the "Redeem" link on the right side of the page, click "Create Apple ID", and enter in the code from your card when requested. You should be able to create an iTunes Store account for your child without needing a credit card. You'll just need an email address for him/her to create the ID, though it can be a "temporary" one that you don't intend to really be used. You can change the email address to which receipts are sent to an account you really wish to use.
    Regards.

  • How can I set up a default (pre-recorded) voicemail greeting on iphone 4s?

    How can I set up a default (pre-recorded) voicemail greeting on iphone 4s?i dont want a custom one with my voice i want the pre-recorded where a lady says my number . how do i get that?

    Voicemail is a cell phone carrier function.  Contact your carrier to see if they have this option.  If not, i'm sure you can download a sound file from the internet with a greeting and add your name.  Then play it back on you PC while holding your iPhone near the speaker when recording the greeting to voicemail.

  • How can i set a global error page for all error cod

    how can i set a global error page for all error code?
    i don't want to leave a long list in the web.xml file.could any one help me?
    thanks

    If u have a common Error JSP named as ErrorPage.jsp
    You need to have the following piece of code in the JSP as :
    <%@ page isErrorPage ="true"%>
    This makes it as the Common Error Page for the Application. Now all you need to do is from other JSP's throw the Exception to teh container. The container will redirect to this Page and process accordingly.
    Thanks and regards,

  • How do I set up a hotmail e-mail account on my iphone?

    How do I set up a hotmail e-mail account on my iphone?

    Microsoft just changed this POP mail item this month - they now allow this with a HOTMAIL PLUS account -
    I was finally able to set up my iphone to support my Hotmail Plus email account. I did make a mistake initially which caused it to fail at first so I delete the new account and tried again - here are my steps:
    1. Go to Settings
    2. Go to Mail
    3. Go to Add a new Account
    4. Click Other
    5. Click the POP button - do not leave it on the default IMAP button (this is where I mady my mistake.
    Then fill in these values as the prior poster noted:
    NAME: Enter your name here, or some other value.
    ADDRESS: Enter your full hotmail email address
    DESCRIPTION: Create a description such as "hotmail account"
    INCOMING MAIL SERVER
    Host name: pop3.live.com
    User name: (enter your full hotmail email address)
    Password: (enter your password for this account)
    OUTGOING MAIL SERVER
    Host Name: smtp.live.com
    User Name: (enter your full hotmail email address)
    Password: (enter the password for this account)
    Under the ADVANCED SETTINGS
    Make sure incoming and outgoing SSL is 'ON' - Authentication is set to Password
    Pleaes note also that my hotmail account has a couple thousand emails in it going back several years so my iphone started inporting the first 200 - then it stopped, so I had to delete many of them, check for mail again and it imported some more, then I deleted more, imported more, and on and on - and it seems to do it by date, so the oldest messages come in first - justs something to keep in mind.
    If you don't have a hotmail plus account - it might be worth the $20 a year to get this access if you use your hotmail alot. It beats forwarding messasges to another email to come into your phone or useing some third party like izy that than has your password info.

  • How do I set the default print margins for ALL printers in mozilla.cfg

    How do I set the default print margins for ALL printers in mozilla.cfg, even ones that are not yet installed / connected to the computer?
    I'm trying to install firefox with MDT and apply certain print options, but the printers themselves are connected at a later stage so the print.printer_myprinterhere cannot be used.

    Best answer I could find: [https://mike.kaply.com/2012/03/16/customizing-firefox-autoconfig-files/#comment-132668]
    If you can figure out how to add the printer name, this can be used to lock the margins.
