How to return to the same PLACE on a page after you link to another page

If you are on a long page that contains links, if you click on the link, go to the new page, read, then return to the first page, you are dropped at the top of the page, not where you left from as FF3.* did. It matters because some pages I use have hundreds of links and I have to hunt to find where I was so that I continue my process.

It took me a while to find out. This issue has nothing to do with Firefox 8, I think. It is the way Google handles the page with your search results.
In the top right corner of your Google home page click the settings button and change the search settings "Google Instant predictions" to OFF. Then hit SAVE and you will be able to go back to same scroll position of your Google search results page. Hope that helps !!!

My old PC, when scrolling through bookmarks and clicking, would return to the same place when opening bookmarks again. My Mac, book marks always open at the top of the list. Can this be set like my PC?

The PC, (Sony Vaio) if i scrolled half way through my bookmarks and clicked on one, if i returned to bookmarks it would open in the same location from where i clicked previously.
The Mac, every time i open my bookmarks, it opens at the top of the list.
Can this be adjusted to work like my old PC?
Thank you.

Please see the Back button as depicted in this snapshot...

Why does a song not return to the same place when I close it?

Recently, for some reason, when I have a song open and press 'my songs' (which effectively closes the song) the song doesn't return to its usual location on the screen/folder. Instead it cues to the top left hand corner, and likewise with every other song, the same thing happens.
It's only just started doing this which makes remembering what is where even more difficult.
Any help much appreciated.

You are welcome, Nick. Don't worry about the "é" - it will depend on your keyboard, if it is easy. On my keyboard I type first the accent ´ and then the e, and all is done

How can I put a message in a page after an action in another page?

Hi everybody, I know that what I try to explain is a bit difficult to understand without know all the context but I try to do it the same:). I have a datatable that contains a list of student. In another page I insert a new student. When I click on "save" button I save the new student and I return to the page with the datatable. The problem is: when I add a student I must notify the user that the student is added correctly with a message in the 1st page like "The student is added correctly". This message must display only after I added the student not when I see for the first time the page with the datatable. How can i do this? Thanks to all.

I use your suggestion but it doesn't work. I create a bean named MessageHandler with scope request. In its constructor i put an empty value for the variable addStudent_message, and in the page that the message should be I have this line of code:
<h:outputText rendered="#{!empty messageHandler.addStudent_message}" value="#{messageHandler.addStudent_message}"/>
In the bean I used to add a student I have a MessageHandler object and in the method that add a student, before the return statement, I put this:
handler.setAddStudent_message("Studente aggiunto correttamente");
When I run, it gives me this error:

How to keep desktop folders in the same place?

I use an iMac (with Mac OS X V.10.6.6) and I have some folders and files on my desktop. However, lately after I shutdown my iMac and start it again, all the folders and files on my desktop move and scatter. I want to keep them in the same order that I originally arranged. How do I keep them in the same place? Is it normal for them to move around after shutdown?
It´s a new iMac (with about 6 monts old) and it only appens sometimes...
PS. I don't want to sort them out by name or date modified or anything like that. I just want to keep them in the same order that I put them.

As this oddity strikes also on my machine, I wrote this script.

Cliquer le bouton "Enregistrer leur position"

A text file containing the datas linked to these icons will be created in the folder defined according to the property 'dest'.
Default location is : "<startupVolume>:Users:<userAccount>:Library:Application Support:".
Run the script and click the button "Reset there position" to move the icons back to their original location.

Hi All, I have question about the iMac operating system. I have the last updated. The problem when I manage the place of the folder windows they are all mixing up. I mean they not on the place where I left them. how to set they stay on the same place? I know there are different possibilities to set.
I tried but it not helped for me. What I can do? How and where can set this they stay on their place?
Thanks.

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Before the recent updates to Firefox, clicking on the back button always brought me back to the same place on the page where I had been, but now it brings me to the top of the page. How do I restore the previous feature?

Before the recent updates to Firefox, when I would go to another page in the same window and then clickon the back button, Firefox used to bring me back to the same place on the page where I had been, but now it brings me to the top of the page, meaning that I have to laboriously scroll down to the old place. How do I restore the previous feature?

That change was made in Firefox 4, 6 months ago.
Click-hold the unified Back / Forward button <br />
or <br />
right-click it to get the Back / Forward history for that tab.
Or install this extension to get the old "drop-marker" button restored. <br />

Dear Friends
My actual problem description as the following
I have a form for production order screen , and this form contain header and details blocks , so the user in the details will select Type Code , and he will go the next field that is Item Code Field search for specific Item Code if it is not exist he has to call the Item Definition Form by using this script
CALL_FORM(ITEM_DEFINITION);
Then when he finished defining the Item , and I assign the item code as the following in the :
WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED TRIGGER
:GLOBAL.ITEM_CODE_VAR := :ITEM_CODE;
DO_KEY('exit_form');
But I don't know where to keep this assignment
:ITEM_CODE := :GLOBAL.ITEM_CODE_VAR;
inside the caller form in which trigger do I have to use when it return from the caller form it should assign the :GLOBAL.ITEM_CODE_VAR to the :ITEM_CODE and the cursor it should show inside the ITEM_CODE , and as I mention it does not return to the same location of The ITEM_CODE when it return from the calling form
Waiting for your valuable answer .
With example please .
Best Regards

In the slide show view how can you pin the "next" Arrow to the ultimate edge so it is in the same place as the full screen image, it will pin to the left edge but not the right.

In the slide show view how can you pin the "next" Arrow to the ultimate edge so it is in the same place as the full screen image, it will pin to the left edge but not the right.

Hello,
Please make sure that the next button is pinned to the right side as there in the attached image.
If it is already pinned, you can try removing any embedded HTML code and checking it.

When installing Maverick on my 17" Macbook pro I got the message that my HD is damaged and can't be repaired. I now can't restart without simply repeating the attempt to install Maverick and thereby returning to the same message. How do I abort install

When installing Maverick on my 17" Macbook pro I got the message that my HD was damaged and couldn't be repaired. (not good news!!) I now can't restart without returning to the Maverick setup and therefore returning to the same message. How do I abort the Maverick installation so that I can try to return to the previous OS so that I can try to recover/repair the HD

I have the same problem with my 2008 MacBook. Repair disk from disk utility says it was successful but the installer thinks it's groundhog day after a reboot. I also tried fsck -fy after booting in to a command mode and it came back clean but again the installer gives the same error message. It seems like a bit is stuck somewhere indicating my HD is bad when it isn't.
I had the latest version of Mountain Lion and have applied every upgrade up to then without issue.
Anyone find a solution yet without having to erase the entire disk and staring over?
Attached is a screen shot of the error.

It could be that the CD player will only playback "Redbook" CD's from the previous position.
And starts mp3 type CD's from the beginnig.
However.. it's not Logic related.

How do I get my music from dropbox in the same place as music bought on iTunes?

I have purchased a few songs in iTunes but most of my music I transferred to my iphone 4S via Dropbox. I put the dropbox songs in a music player I downloaded but I can't transfer the songs I purchased through iTunes. How can I get all my music in the same place?

ios music player can only play synced from itunes or bought from itune store
so you need to add the music on your computer from dropbox so itunes have a link to it
and then sync it to the ios device

How to call 2 refcursor returned by the same procedure

I have a PL/SQL Procedure that's returning 2 ref cursors.
How can I call these 2 ref cursors using OO4O Connection in MS Access.
For 1 refcursor I have the following code:
Set OraSqlStmt = OraDatabase.CreateSql("begin package_refcur.procedure(:OrdCursor);end;", ORASQL_FAILEXEC)
How do I call the 2nd Refcur which is returned by the same procedure?

If you want to populate the two ref cursors and return them to a calling program all you need to do is:
OPEN cur_var1 FOR
SELECT *
     FROM tab1
      where rownum = 1;
OPEN cur_var2 FOR
SELECT *
     FROM tab1
      where rownum = 2;Now both of the ref cursors are populated.
Here is an example
declare
type obj_curtype is ref cursor
    return all_objects%rowtype;
type view_curtype is ref cursor
    return all_views%rowtype;
ref_all_obj    obj_curtype;
ref_all_view   view_curtype;
objrec         all_objects%rowtype;
viewrec        all_views%rowtype;
begin
open ref_all_obj for
    select *
    from   all_objects; --PLEASE NOTE NO FETCH INTO
open ref_all_view for
    select *
    from   all_views; --PLEASE NOTE NO FETCH INTO
/* The following is here to show you that there is data in the ref cursors
        You could loop through the whole ref cursor.
        In your case these ref cursors are being returned */
fetch ref_all_view
into   viewrec;
dbms_output.put_line('view name = ' ||
                       viewrec.view_name);
fetch ref_all_obj
into   objrec;
dbms_output.put_line('Obj name = ' ||
                       objrec.object_name);
end;I hope I understood your question and this help.
