How to make Firefox open automatically a new, empty tab in each start, but keep last sessions?

How to make Firefox open automatically a new, empty tab in each start? (keep last sessions as well) It will be good, because Firefox wont load the previous sessions last watched tab after start straight away, but keep my previous sessions tab as well in the browser.

Hello,
You can change your home page settings to open a blank tab:
* Tools (or [[Image: New Fx Menu]]) > Options > General
* Beside "Startup", change to "Show a blank tab"
* See the article [[Startup, home page and download settings]] for more information
To retrieve your previous browsing session, first make sure that you are not running in [[Private Browsing - Browse the web without saving information about the sites you visit|Private Browsing mode]]. When you start Firefox, to recover your previous session, you can go to:
* History (or [[Image: New Fx Menu]] > History) > Restore Previous Session
* Please see [[Restore previous session - Configure when Firefox shows your most recent tabs and windows]] for more information

After clicking on an open tab, how to make the focus automatically go to the body of page?

After clicking on an open tab, how to make the focus automatically go to the body of page?
Right now, clicking in an open tab and using arrow keys now moves through the open tabs. I liked the old versions where right after clicking in a tab you could directly go to navigate the page with the arrow keys.
Is there a something I can change in about:config to change this behavior?
Thanks in advanced.

Firefox should still set the focus the the browser area if you click a tab.<br />
Only with very old browser versions you could set the focus to a tab by clicking a tab.
This behavior is likely caused by an extension.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

In Windows 7, how to make Firefox start automatically when I turn on the computer. Note, I am asking how to do this with Windows 7, not xp, not vista.

You need to place a shortcut to open Firefox in the Start > Programs > Startup folder.<br />

How to make movies open in the center of my screen.

Does anyone know how to make Quicktime open up videos in the center of a screen? When I double click any movie file it pops open in the uppermost far left corner, and I have to drag it down into a more comfortable area. It's annoying with a large monitor.
Thanks

The script writing lobe of my brain was damaged by years of drug abuse, years ago. Try as I might, I can't seem to get it right.
The most common error I get is:
Expected end of line, etc. but found “end tell”.
I tried modeling one of any number of existing scripts but still no dice.
I tried this:
tell application "QuickTime Player"
activate
set the bounds of window 1 to {235, 58, 944, 590}
end tell
And got this error message: QuickTime Player got an error: NSReceiverEvaluationScriptError: 4
I know this is simple but, like I said...

How to make Finder automatically go to the foremost open window?

I hope I'm explaining this clearly.
Suddenly, when I click on the Finder from the Dock, it does not go to the last open window. I have to go to the Windows menu and select it, or click and wait on the Finder icon in the dock for it to open. I usually have a lot of apps open so when I go to Finder it's to do some file management - and the extra step of having to bring the last open window to the forefront is annoying me!
Does anyone know how to make the Finder automatically come to the forefront (with the windows) from click in the Dock? I swear my mac always did that before but now it's stopped!

can anyone help me here?

Reverting to previous system.Nothing on Desktop.Finder opens automatically

On my MacBook there is nothing showing on the Desktop. I think I did something like doing a restart while holding down the F12 button or maybe another one. I read it somewhere. I can't remember. (The reason I did that was to solve the problem of the finder window opening automatically on startup which was the result of a software update some time in 2008.) It didn't work anyway.
In order to fix the problem of nothing on the desktop I reinstalled 10.5.6. from my installation disks. Nothing changed except that now I have a Previous System folder which takes up about 15Gig and I'm getting short on space.
So, how do I get rid of the new install, revert to the previous system and get my disk space back?
Also, any ideas how to get my Desktop showing what I have? In Preferences from the finder menu I've ticked the boxes to show Hard Disks, CD's etc and Connected servers but still nothing shows.
Finally, how do I stop the Finder window from opening automatically at startup? Whew!

you can't revert to a previous system unless you have a backup of it. I take it you don't have one. make a new user and see if everything works correctly there.
If it does you should migrate what you need from your old home directory to the new user and delete the old user.
You can delete Previous Systems folder.

How to make 'always open in ... view' check box actually work?

What I need is a "Make 'Always open in ... view' check box work" check box.
Specifically:
I double click on my hard drive icon to open its window. I press command 3 to make it display in column view. I press command J and check "Always open in column view" and check the further check box, "Browse in column view". Then later on having viewed various windows I double click on the hard drive icon and it opens in some other view than column view. So, how to make the check box do what it actually says it will do?
Thanks.
edit: In fact in Panther, and probably other older OS X's, all folders would generally remember (I think) how it was last viewed and use that again. How to make that happen? Thanks.

How to make page scroll automatically on click, plz help ASAP

Hi!
I need to know how to make a page scroll up or down automatically when i click on an image.
Too see example click here: http://www.morphix.si/
I am very new to Dreamweaver and coding, so please be gentle. But I need help A.S.A.P if it's possible! =)
Thanks!

Hit F1 (help) and search for Named Anchors.
The example page is one, very tall page with several named anchors on it. When you click a button it takes you to the designated anchor on the page.
<a href="#top">Link to Top</a>
<a href="#bottom">Link to Bottom</a>
The gliding effect is done with jQuery.

Help, how to make Finder to refresh custom icon programmatically

Hi
I have two file both are same name, e.g. 1.rtf, but with different custom icon.
When I copied the first 1.rtf to an USB drive, the custom icon was displayed correctly.
However, when copied the second file to the USB drive to replace the first file, Finder still showed the custom icon of the first file.
How can I solve this issue and how can I make Finder to refresh the custom icon programmatically.
Thanks

Hi KT, thanks your reply & help
but result is same. The following is my experiment
STEP 1: copy 1.rtf to USB drive, the result is OK.
STEP 2: copy another 1.rtf to USB drive, Finder still showing the 1st file icon and a little bit blurred
STEP 3: copy 3rd file without custom icon, the result is OK
STEP 4: using following code to set its custom icon, the result is still show the custom icon of the 1st file
[[NSWorkspace sharedWorkspace] setIcon:image forFile:[filePath stringValue] options:nil];
It seems that Finder will has some cache to store file's custom icon. If use "Force Quit" to relaunch Finder, it become correct but how can I use program code to refresh it without "Force Quit"?
