How to disable tab bar in Safari on iOS 5

I can't find the setting for this. Is it hidden somewhere?

The only problem with safari under iOS 5 is when you have 9 tabs opened (which is often the case for me) you don't find anymore which is the right tab when you come back, while under iOS 4 it was far more easier thanks to the picture of the page.
Fair point, but it obviously now makes sense keeping fewer pages open. This is now easy to do as you can just add them to 'Reading List' so you can return to them later and since the Reading List syncs to your other devices they are available anywhere you might be browsing which HAS to be a plus.
I realise that the Reading List is just a list of bookmarks and doesn't actually store the page itself, whereas an open tab does - in theory. On many, many occasions I have switched to an open page (now Tab) and had to wait while the page was retrieved again. I don't understand why it does this since the page had already been downloaded and I hadn't asked it to 'redraw'. Also, it doesn't always occur. So why does it refetch some pages and not others? Anyway, if it is re-fetching the page, that is no different from just opening a bookmark and hence in that case storing something in the Reading List would be no different to keeping the page apparently open in another screen.
On the whole I do prefer the new Safari and from the reviews I've read, it seems that most others do also. In any case, there's no point wishing for the old behaviour as it's surely gone for good. Better to embrace the new way of working and learn to love that, so when they change to something else in iOS 6, you'll have something to complain about.

  • How to unhide Tab bar in Safari

    i am using the Safari Browser - Version 6.0.3 (8536.28.10), recently tab bar is not showing. Can any one help me to unhide the tab bar. When i checked view->Hide Tab Bar, also inactive. Looking help to unhide the tab bar. Thanks in advance

    I suggest using Apple menu - Software Update (after backing up your computer) to get a newer Safari & OS version.
    The tab bar is hidden by default unless there's more than one tab open - you can alter that with the following Terminal command... do it after quitting Safari.
    defaults write -app Safari AlwaysShowTabBar -bool YES

  • What is the function of show tab bar in safari setting?

    this tool is in setting > safari > show tab bar on/off
    any one know how it work

    Hey Samooo205,
    I see that you have some questions about the tab bar in Safari. Some information about this can be found in the following article:
    Safari 7 (Mavericks): Customize the Safari window
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH17153
    If you need help visually identifying the tab bar, you can find that information here:
    Safari 8 (Yosemite): View webpages in tabs
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH19261
    As it said in the first article, the tab bar option that you are wondering about only affects the behavior of the tab bar when there is only one tab open. If there are multiple tabs open, the tab bar will be shown, regardless of this setting. Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
    Cheers,
    Braden

  • (Chrome Like) Auto-Hide Tab bar in Safari Full Screen mode

    Is there a plugin or some other way to auto hide the tab bar in Safari fullscreen mode like the way Chrome does?
    This is the only thing stopping me from using Safari, it's way smoother than Chrome and feels much more native to Lion, but the fact the tab bar just keeps hanging there is annoying.
    I tried the Cmd+I method mentioned in the community, but it only works when you're only opening one tab, if you open several tabs, the tab bar will show up again. It also comes back up once you exit Full Screen mode.
    Thanks for your help !

    Hello myzzzl, this is normal behavior in full screen mode, you can set the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.fullscreen.autohide browser.fullscreen.autohide] in about:config to False, to change that, but if you do that tabs and location bar is enabled in full screen mode.
    wait if another contributor/helper give you a code which I don't know.
    thank you

  • How to disable Tabs in the application

    Hi OAF Guys
    How to disable tabs in the application? if any one knows reply asap
    Thanks in advance

    Tabs are generated by the menu structure, if you want your page not to have tabs, have a responsibility with a menu which does not have any levels of submenus and just has your page as a function in the menu.
    Thanks

  • How to hide tab bar and application bar? In ID CS4.

    Hello all!
    Please help! Maybe someone have idea how to disable both?
    It is only waste of space imo. Will not use them for sure...
    Never opening more than 2-3 docs and than can easy use shortcut ctrl+`. Tabbed pages are good in web browser imho... Application bar is also just useless and (as menu itself) too fat. Most of those are in menu and have shortcuts. New features could be in menu as well.
    Don't know why interface changed so much. And why this direction.
    I know monitors are bigger nowdays etc - but are wider rather than higher.
    Also - maybe new interface is great and ppl love it - but would be nice to have a choice. Some may prefere maximize workspace...
    M.

    Thanks for responses...
    Yes - mac users can be really happy. What about PC? What was wrong with classical menu?
    Are designers really works with several documents the same time? So need to use tabs? Well maybe. But those who works with just one or two don't need it really. (Maybe easy solution could be: one doc = no tab, more = tabbed, would be more natural imvho. As well as turning it off for PC users as well.)
    So really no trick similar to 'noallcaps'? Notabsbar? Noapplicationbar?
    "You can turn off the tabs in the preferences, interface section."
    Yes, I can - but no more place coz of this... Window isn't maximized in fact - is floating, what also personally I don't like. Anyway - it is the same size and use the same space as before... If u make next one doc it is even smaller, to show bottom one. Maximizing it to full screen... hiding menu and docked 'control panel' (OK this docked menu can float, np - but where is menu?).
    As for maximized letter size document in CS3 vs CS4 it's 131% to 129% on my lcd. Sure - it is not much maybe. But why it must be less? Why to change smthng what was good and aesthetic solution. And why not allow people to use it in classical way? Are Mac users ("to keep the hardcore Mac users happy") better than others? :(

  • How to disable tabs in titlebar for all users?

    I want to disable tabs in title bar for all users, because looks ugly http://i57.tinypic.com/33nkm77.png
    I type to C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\defaults\pref\local-settings.js
    pref("browser.tabs.drawInTitlebar", false);
    It doesn't work, but any other options in this file works fine.
    Setting with about:config works fine, but only for currrent user.

    I think that preference refers to what happens when you have Firefox maximized and you do not display either the classic menu bar or the title of the page in that area: the tabs slide up to the top.
    I agree the double-high blue area is irritating. To modify that, I think you need to do one of these:
    * Change the Windows XP color theme (I always preferred Silver)
    * Create a custom style rule to modify the appearance of the tab bar (so the blue does not show through it)
    * Find a Firefox theme that fixes that area (e.g., [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/themes/])
    I haven't researched the second and third options in detail.

  • The tab bar in Safari does not update automatically

    Hello,
    I have a strange problem with Safari full screen mode and the tab bar always displayed, it does "not update" alone. In fact when I, for example, two tabs and I created a third (by clicking a link) it does not appear immediately. I have to either click on the tab bar and pretend to move one, either click the "Naviagtion tabs" for bar tabs emtte update.
    A little heavy, huh?
    All my software are up to date and even reinstalled recently, but the problem is still present.
    OS X Lion Mountain / / Safari 6.0.2
    Regards

    I solved the problem by uninstalling Glims.

    HI Joakins,
    It seems to very simple to solve you can use style based application bar like this,
    <phone:PhoneApplicationPage.Resources>
    <shell:ApplicationBar x:Key="groupAppBar"
    BackgroundColor="#EFF2F6"
    ForegroundColor="Black"
    IsMenuEnabled="True"
    Mode="Default">
    <shell:ApplicationBarIconButton x:Name="grp_attach"
    Click="Img_attach_Click"
    IconUri="/Assets/AppBar/attachbaritem.png"
    Text="attach" />
    <shell:ApplicationBarIconButton x:Name="grp_sticker"
    Click="sticker_Click"
    IconUri="/Assets/AppBar/teddybaritem.png"
    Text="sticker" />
    <shell:ApplicationBarIconButton x:Name="grp_Send"
    Click="ImgSend_Click"
    IconUri="/Assets/Chat/send.png"
    Text="send" />
    <shell:ApplicationBar.MenuItems>
    <shell:ApplicationBarMenuItem Click="btnGroupInfo_Click" Text="group info" />
    <shell:ApplicationBarMenuItem Click="btnMedia_Click" Text="media" />
    <shell:ApplicationBarMenuItem Click="btnDeleteGroup_Click" Text="leave group" />
    </shell:ApplicationBar.MenuItems>
    </shell:ApplicationBar>
    </phone:PhoneApplicationPage.Resources>
    And at code behind  use like this to show your appbar,
    this.ApplicationBar = this.Resources["groupAppBar"] as ApplicationBar;
    this.ApplicationBar.IsVisible = true;
    And for removing,
    this.ApplicationBar = null;
    Please mark this as answer if you get the solution by this answer.
