HOW MAY I SAVE MULTIPLE-OPENED BROWSING TABS WHEN CLOSING FIREFOX, PLEASE?

When closing Firefox I would like to be able to leave some tabs open so my next session just carries on, as though I had left a real $5.00 note bookmark in an ole-fashioned book.

Firefox 4 automatically saves your tabs and windows when you exit to restore them just click the Firefox button>History menu>Restore Previous Session and it will open your previous tabs and windows in addition to your current tabs and windows.

How can I save more than two tabs when closing Mozilla, so as when I open Mozilla the tabs appear again?

In the previous edition of Mozilla, when many tabs in one window were opened, at the closing of the window a message used to appear, asking whether you would like to save tabs in use or not, so as at the next opening of Mozilla, the saved tabs would appear again. How can this be achieved in Mozilla 4.

How to save tabs when closing firefox 4

I have just upgraded from Firefox 3.6.x to Firefox 4. I had assumed that the new version would use the same settings as the previous one but it doesn't
The previous one always asked if I wante tabs saving when I closed it but this version (4) does not.
Is there a way of making it ask?

How do I save my tabs when closing Firefox?

I used to be able to in the older version of Firefox. Thanks.

You mean the sites you just visited? See [[How to set the home page]] and then click the link to '''Set What Pages Open when Firefox Starts'''.

Firefox 4 sucks! Why can't I save my tabs when closing Firefox, & why can't I have a red X to stop a slow page from loading?

NOT FASTER!! MUCH SLOWER!!
When I close Firefox, I can no longer save my tabs. WHAT GIVES?
When a new page isn't coming up, I can no longer stop it from loading & try again.
WHY do my tabs need to be above the toolbars?
I've loved using Firefox & have used it exclusively for about the last ten years, but if this is how it's always going to be now, I'm going to look for a new browser!

The described fix seems to work fine, and I appreciate the fast response.
Firefox developers, I've been a developer myself. Setting the default to not save tabs in Firefox 4 is going to make a lot of people VERY angry.
I'm a fairly educated user. After upgrading, the first thing I did was to check Preferences and try to make sure all settings were good to maintain what I've been accustomed to doing. I didn't take the Firefox 4 tour, but shut down the application to make sure caches were emptied. There was no warning about my multiple tabs, but it was too late to stop the process. When I opened it again, all my tabs were gone, some of which related to material or local logins that I will have a hard time re-creating.
If my wife had done this, you would have heard her swearing without benefit of phone or online chat window, no matter where your labs are. :-)
For everyone's sanity, please don't turn off the Preserve Tabs on Logout function without warning.

How do I configure Firefox 4.01 to save all tabs when closing the browser?

In the previous version 3.x.y of Firefox, when I closed the browser, it asked me if I wanted to save my open pages / tabs before closing. When I subsequently opened the browser again, it reloaded all the previously open tabs / pages. In version 4.01, before closing the browser warns me that I am closing multiple tabs but when I restart the browser again, it does not load the previously open tabs. How do I configure the browser to behave like the old 3.x.y version, i.e. neatly saving all the open tabs and loading these again when opening restarting the browser?

Hi TonyE, this was a very useful reply. The first part of your answer had already been posted by someone else. Your answer in particular shows the nitty gritty detail of how to automate it. I had searched in the options already but had not found step 3 above yet. But I have found it now and have changed it from "Home page" to "Show my windows and tabs from last time".
Thanks a lot for letting me know this solution and making me aware of the drop down list.

How to fix forgetting previously opened tabs when starting Firefox by clicking on a link in an external application?

Hello, I have the option Startup: "Show my windows and tabs from last time" enabled. Works fine, except when Firefox starts when I click a link in an external application (typically Thunderbird). Then, the new link gets opened in a new tab, Firefox remembers the number of tabs I had opened when I last closed it, but all the "old" tabs are blank. Can I somehow fix this behavior?
Disabling add-ons does not help. Clicking on a link in an external application when Firefox is already opened works OK. I have been using Firefox for quite a short time now (probably half a year) and this problem was always there (i.e. it is not due to a new update).
Thank you.

If Firefox is closed and an external link opens Firefox, you need to go to History > Recently Closed Tabs and open those tabs before closing Firefox. If you don't the "previous session" will be gone and only the one page that the external program opened will be the new "previous session".
If that isn't satisfactory, you'll need to install a "session manager" type extension to remember more than "the last session" only.

Firefox now automatically saves open tabs when closing. When you re-start Firefox, do one of these:
#Restore from History:
#*click ''Firefox button> History > Restore Previous Session''
#*click ''History > Restore Previous Session'', if using the Menu Bar
#Restore from the about:home page:
#*type '''''about:home''''' in the Location/URL bar and choose "Restore Previous Session"
#*See https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/common-questions-after-updating-firefox#w_why-werent-my-tabs-and-windows-restored
#Change your home page setting:
#*Change Options > General tab, change "When Firefox starts:" to "Show my windows and tabs from last time"
#*See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Options%20window%20-%20General%20panel Options window-General Options]
IMPORTANT:
*You must close Firefox using ''Firefox button > Exit/Close'' (or ''File > Exit/Close'' if using the Menu Bar) for this to work properly
*You must have "Remember my browsing history" selected; click ''Firrefox button > Options > Privacy'' (or ''Tools > Options > Privacy,'' if using the Menu Bar'')
**See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Options%20window%20-%20Privacy%20panel Options window-Privacy panel]
*You must not clear "Browsing History" when closing Firefox; click ''Firefox button > Options > Privacy > [X] Clear history when Firefox closes > Exceptions > [ ] Browsing History'' (or click ''Tools > Options > Privacy > [X] Clear history when Firefox closes > Exceptions > [ ] Browsing History'', if using the Menu Bar)

How can I have multiple WINDOWS (NOT tabs) with INDEPENDENT content?

How can I have multiple '''windows''' (''not ''tabs) with '''independent''' content?
I used to be able to open separate windows with Firefox, and the content could be completely different in each window. No matter what I did in any window, no OTHER window open at the time, nor any of the content therein, was affected. This is no longer the case and it is extremely frustrating for me.
I do ''not ''like tabs and do not use them. I prefer multiple windows plus I am so used to using them, for so many years now! But with v9.0.1 I suddenly can no longer do what I've always done with my browser without this aggravating problem constantly reminding me that I can't have what I want in firefox anymore.
Or can I? Does anyone have a solution I don't realize exists?
Thanks,
Sowelu

AppleScriptObjC can use pretty much everything in the Cocoa API, so yes, it is possible.
Note that a view is not the same as a window, and a window can have multiple views. There are also many ways to implement "tabs"; take a look at some of Apple's applications - they use various mixtures of toolbars, checkboxes, and radio buttons, for example. An application such as this will be a lot more involved than what you have done so far though, using custom classes and subclassing existing ones, so be prepared to do a lot of reading and researching.

Do you organise your email into separate folders, or do you just let it accumulate in the Inbox?
I would strongly advise you not to let it sit in the Inbox.
When you see this happening, try right-click on the affected folder, select '''Properties''' then '''Repair Folder'''.
Large folders (actually, a folder in Thunderbird is stored as a file, so it is sensitive to file size limits set by the underlying file system) can be problematic. This is one reason not to let messages collect in one folder. I use Thunderbird's Archive folders so that accumulated mails over several years can happily coexist because they are effectively stored in many small folders. No single mail store folder then exceeds the 2GB or 4GB sizes that have been known to stress the OS. I appreciate that current builds of Thunderbird and a modern 64-bit OS should be able to cope, but practically I find it slows down when given huge files, so I err towards a pragmatic solution; a large number of not very big files.
Archives are searchable, and a Saved Search folder can give you a virtual composite folder allowing access to the entire Archive.

How can I have Safari save my opened web pages when I quit so that when I open next time they will be there?

How can I have Safari save my opened web pages when I quit so that when I open next time they will be there? I can do that in Firefox automatically, but can't seem to find how to do it in Safari. I'm thinking maybe it's just now possible yet?

From your Safari menu bar click History / Reopen All Windows from Last Session.
Or..
Glims can re open tabs from a previous session if that helps.

Compatible with Snow Leopard v10.6 and Safari 5+ and it's free.

How can I save multiple titles under the same DVD?

I use HandBrake to rip DVD's into iTunes. How can I save multiple titles under the same DVD? For instance, I have a Jimi Hendrix documentary that comes with special features, such as concert performances. I would like to have the main feature and the special features saved in my iTunes under the same title, perhaps as different 'tracks' (kind of like how different songs can be saved under the same album).
Is there a way for me to do this, or am I chasing phantoms?

*This response is for iPhoto 11 (v9). If you're using an earlier version, please post back and let us know. Troubleshooting steps are not the same for different versions. To find out which iPhoto you have: iPhoto Menu -> About iPhoto)*
Duplicate the photo first. (Photos -> Duplicate). This means that you will have multiple copies of the master as well as the edited version.
If you use versions like this often and wish to have only one master then you can do this with Aperture.
