How To reset Safari window size back to original factory setting?
I resize my pages often but I don't want to always keep them at random sizes. I want to know the proper method to reset the webpage size back to it default size. Right now it's too wide, and I click the green plus button in the upper left corner and it goes down to a very small size, I click the green plus again and it returns to the Too Wide size. I just can't seem to get it to go back to the default size.
Thanks for your help!
You could try this. Set the safatri page to your convenience by dragging the bottom right hand corner of the page. Quit safari, then immediately relaunch. It should start up the same size as it was before you quit. Then ...
Go to Safari > preferences and set the page as your home page.

How do I reset my new MBA to its original factory setting?
I just purchase a 13" MBA 2011 and during set-up I somehow enabled the MBA to share everything on my iMac. How do I return the MBA to its original state out of the box so that I can redo the setup process and not have to share every program that my iMac has? Thanks a bunch!
When I had this situation, I made a specific back up on time machine and used that version as a basis of configurating my MBA.
hope have helped,

Any way to lock Safari window size?
Hi people,
As the topic saids, how do I lock the Safari window size (if there is a way to) as sometimes there are internet sites which automatically resize the window either to cover the whole desktop or to shink it to a little box, its really annoying.
Incase you guys are thinking some sorta adult sites, here's an example url: http://footlocker.eu/nikezoom/
Message was edited by: zplusHi Dimaxum,
The thing is, that site automatically expands to full screen, which I DO NOT want it to. I was wondering if there's some settings that allows me to "over-ride" those website settings and keep my normal Safari window size. -

1. Starting a new query ..
Select appropriate Board (Selecting 'E series and communicators' as far as the device goes..but more apt will be the 'Hardware' Board under 'Tips and Troubleshooting' in this particular case..) and then select 'New Message' ..
2. The security code needs to be reset to the default 12345 which can only be done by Nokia Care in your region. A proof of ownership (Bill / Invoice) may be asked.
Moderator's note: We amended the title of this post as we moved it to the most appropriate board.

Install or Reinstall Lion from Scratch
If possible backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive.
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.

After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.

You need to boot from the Toshiba recovery disk, which will erase the hard drive and then restore the disk image as it came out-of the-box. If you dont have the recovery disk, you can order a replacment from Toshiba Customer Service: (800) 457-7777. -
How to make safari window open up to my size pref
Sorry about the long subject title. Everytime I open safari on my Apple computers the safari window will open up in a different size or place. How can I set it to open to my own default like preference so that it covers the screen when I open safari.
Does that make sense?
Thanks!Thanks alot for the quick response. However, my problem is that I do resize the window with the lower right drag every time I open safari. It doesn't seem to save the setting or something. If I stretch it out huge....next time I open, it will be tiny, (and hitting the green button doesn't fix it) or in a different possition.
Any other ideas?
Thanks! -
How to reset Safari 8.0.2 on OS X Yosemite?
Macbook Pro running OS X Yosemite 10.10.1
Safari Version 8.0.1
I want to restore Safari to default settings and completely wipe the application. I haven't found a way to do this, I've looked on Youtube, Apple Support, and many other websites. None of them include information on how I can reset Safari.
Thanks in advance!Back up all data before proceeding.
Quit Safari if it’s running. Then select
▹ Force Quit…
from the menu bar. A small window will open with a list of running applications. Safari may appear in that list, even though you quit it. If so, select it and press return. Close the window.
Step 1
If Adobe Flash Player is installed, select
▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced ▹ Delete All...
In the sheet that opens, check the box marked
Delete All Site Data and Settings
then click Delete Data. Close the preference pane.
Hold down the option key and select
Go ▹ Library
from the Finder menu bar. Delete the following items from the Library folder (some may not exist):
Caches/com.apple.Safari
Caches/com.apple.Safari.SearchHelper
Caches/com.apple.SafariServices
Caches/com.apple.WebKit.PluginProcess
Caches/com.apple.WebProcess
Caches/Metadata/Safari
Preferences/com.apple.WebKit.PluginHost.plist
Preferences/com.apple.WebKit.PluginProcess.plist
Saved Application State/com.apple.Safari.savedState
Leave the Library folder open. Try Safari again. If the problem is solved, stop here. Close the Library folder. If you still have a problem, continue.
Step 2
Restart the computer in safe mode. Certain caches maintained by the system will be rebuilt.
Safe mode is much slower to start up than normal.
When the login screen appears, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and test. There's no need to log in while in safe mode.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t start in safe mode. In that case, ask for instructions.
Step 3
If Safari still doesn’t work, quit, go back to the Finder, and move the following items from the open Library folder to the Desktop (again, some may not exist):
Cookies/Cookies.binarycookies
Internet Plug-Ins
Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.Safari.*.plist
Preferences/com.apple.Safari.Extensions.plist
Preferences/com.apple.Safari.LSSharedFileList.plist
Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
Preferences/com.apple.WebFoundation.plist
PubSub/Database
Safari
SyncedPreferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
Here, "*" stands for a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes.
Note 1: You are not moving the Safari application. You’re moving a folder named “Safari.”
Note 2: This step will remove your Safari extensions, if any, and their settings. If you choose to reinstall them, do so one at a time, testing each time to make sure you haven’t restored the problem.
Try again. Your settings and bookmarks will be lost. The default set of bookmarks will be restored. Delete them all.
If Safari is now working normally (apart from the lost settings), look inside the “Safari” folder on the Desktop for a file named “Bookmarks.plist”. Select
File ▹ Import Bookmarks...
from the Safari menu bar. Import from that file. Recreate the rest of your Safari settings. You can then delete the items you moved to the Desktop.
If the issue is still not resolved, quit Safari again and put all the items you moved to the Desktop back where they were, overwriting the newer ones that may have been created in their place. You don’t need to replace the files you deleted in Step 1. Stop here and post again.
If you don’t like the results of the last step, you can undo it completely by quitting Safari and restoring the items you moved or deleted in that step from your backup, overwriting any that were created in their place. -
How can I reset safari 8 on os x yosemite. I have redirect problem on my browser. I want to search things from toolbar using google but it redirects me to a different search engine. I checked all extensions there is no one there that seems wrong. please help me.
In OS X 10.10, with the new update to Safari, you can't simply reset Safari like before. Now you have to actually go in and manually disengage anything plugged in to safari.
This means entering the Library folders for both the system and user accounts affected by the Trovi/Conduit/Search protect redirect malwares.
First up is closing Safari down. Quit it, or Force Quit it using the Command/Option/Esc shortcut. Next up is to navigate to Finder and remove traces of the pest in your user files.
While some antivirus programs are great for this, avoid MacKeeper like the plague, it basically will do the same thing. Do not ever use it.
I should warn you, deleting files in this part may affect your computer adversely. When in doubt, TIME MACHINE BACKUP!!!!
Mouse up to the "Go" top menu selection, and hold down the Option/Alt key. Magically, the Library folder will appear, which you'll need to click on, and go in to. The file path should be something along the lines of /Users/YOURNAME/Library. Inside this are a few folders that you'll need to pop in and check out. Application Support is one of them, this will house anything dealing with preference files or misc files for programs or apps, including in some cases, search redirect add ons. Find the name of your assailant, be it Trovi, Conduit, or the plethora of others out there that hijack your browser (take note of the website it launches when you go to your homepage, check Safari's system preferences to double check prior to this dive into your system files).
Once you've located files associated with the program, Command/Delete them, or just delete them however you normally would. Securely empty the trash to ensure that even if they're in use, they will be deleted.
Next folder on the list is back in the Library, so head backwards in the File path and scroll down to Internet Plug-ins. Inside this folder is anything Safari uses, either intentionally or not. Clear anything in there that doesn't look right, this Folder is normally empty by default anyways.
Next folder for inspection is back in the Library folder, named Safari. This is the real bread and butter here, and where you'll find .plist files galore. You should open and clear Extensions folder, LastSession.plist, as well as the Local Storage folder. Do not delete folders in this enclosing Safari folder, only files.
Empty the trash securely again. Next up is to check the system Library folder for any lingering pest files. The filepath for this folder is simply inside the main drive, Library will be on the same hierarchy as Users, System, Applications, and so on. Open the Library folder, open Application Support folder, and again, check for anything suspicious. Anything inside this folder is a series of preference files for applications used by users/the system. Hopefully there should be nothing in this folder to delete, but on occasion you'll see Trovi or other folders in there.
The next folder to check, back up the ladder in to Library, is the Internet Plug-ins folder. This will contain files for you to delete, likely as .plugin files.
The final folder to check is back in the Library, called Preferences. This is where hunting and pecking will be a time consuming affair. You will likely have roughly 100+ files inside this folder, each of them is a com.whatever.whatever.plist file. These are pretty important files. Among these plist files will very likely be a trovi or conduit plist with a com.trovi.whatever.plist file name. Delete that little file, securely empty your trash.
The final process to finish this all up will be to set your homepage in Safari back to what it used to be. Open it up (WITH YOUR INTERNET CONNECTION OFF), go to your Safari preferences, input your homepage, then save that and close Safari. Restart the Mac, then turn on your Wifi/ethernet connection, and open Safari. It should be hijack-free. -
Satellite C855D-16J - How do I get Windows 8 back to normal?
It's a long story how this all happened.
Basically, it all started when I decided to give Ubuntu a go.
After going through with the setup and completing the installation, I'd realised I'd made a terrible mistake; I'd wiped my hard drive entirely.
Next I had to spend hours looking for a method to reinstall Windows 8. I found a helpful post on some forum and burned a Windows 8 recovery ISO to my USB stick.
Installation was successful and I got Windows 8 back, or so I'd thought...
It turns out I only had an evaluation version. On my desktop it says the following;
'Windows 8 Enterprise Evaluation'
Windows License valid for 90 days
Build 9200'
I thought that if I could use the product key that's hidden in the BIOS, using Keyfinder, I could get it working again with [ this|http://windows.microsoft.com/is-is/windows-8/upgrade-product-key-only] , but nope. I got the error: 'This product key cannot be used to install retail version of windows 8'
My laptop, a Toshiba Satellite C855D-16J, came preinstalled with Windows 8. I'd like to know how to get this thing working again.
I don't have any money to spend(not that I should need to spend anything) and would like help urgently, please. Some ISO or key or anything. It's enough to lose my files, I don't want to be stuck with laptop I can't use
Thank you.Hmmm... stupid situation now.
If I understand you right you didnt create recovery media. Thats your biggest mistake.
Problem is that recovery image is not for public usage and cannot be downloaded anywhere.
You have two possibilities now:
1/to install own OS version
2/to order original recovery disc (link is posted by Tom)
I must also say that order is not for free and costs about 30 Euros but believe me it is best solution for you. Using this disc you will have factory settings again and preinstalled OS version will be activated. -
How to change default window size?
I'm using MX 6.0 on Mac... For some reason I can't figure out
how to change the default window size in the work windows. Every
time I open a new file to work on it opens to a smaller size than
the actual page is. When opening pages dozens of times a day, it
gets annoying to have to resize each time. I'm sure it wasn't
always like this, but I can't figure out how to change it so the
default size that it opens to each time is larger.
Thanks for any help,
