How to stop closing windows accidentally?

I work with many windows open. I would like to "lock" my tabs so I don't always accidentally close windows.

  • How to stop Firefox windows from rapid fire opening.

    When trying to go from Pandora to iTunes to purchase a song...  the first window to open is the preview window.  No problem.  BUT, when i try to go from that window to the iTunes store a cascade of FireFox windows start to open rapid fire w/ no stop.  Have to crash out and reboot the confuser to stop the window from continuing to open ad infnitium.      This just started when i was asked to associate a program w/ iTunes for some reason...  Maybe a new version glitch?   I cannot find anywhere in options or preferences to change or stop FireFox from goin' wild.  Help me... please... 

    It could be a bug in the Flash Player plugin, caused by the protected mode feature. This thread has the background on that and known workarounds: [https://support.mozilla.org/questions/955659 Opening New Windows and Shockwave Flash].

  • How to stop a windows process?

    How do I get hold of a running process/program under WindowsXP?
    How do I stop this process?

    You should use the Java Native Interface and write some C code with the Win32 API. I don't think there is another way. You should search the MSDN for code samples for killing windows processes. And if you go ahead and do what i just suggested, then i wish you good luck and be patient!

  • How to stop anoying windows-reopening ..

    hi all
    how can i stop this anoying windows-reopening without unchecking it in the restart-window ?
    thanx for ideas ..

    To disable the restore/resume feature set the NSQuitAlwaysKeepsWindows preference for that app to false.
    For instance: to disable it for Preview use Terminal to enter this command
    defaults write com.apple.Preview NSQuitAlwaysKeepsWindows -bool false

  • How to stop closed web pages from reloading into a new tab?

    Web pages reload automatically, creating multiple copies of the same page. This happens on news sites (e.g., the Guardian). The page will even reopen after being closed.
    Suggestions THAT DO NOT WORK:
    1) Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"
    2) GreaseMonkey and its ridiculous scripts that are badly documented and problematic to have work.

    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.

  • How to stop multiple windows being opend when searching CCM 2.0 catalog

    Hi There,
    When one accesses the catalogue using the SHOP - CATALOG<link>, a new window is opened. If after searching a list of items is displayed in yet another window!. How can we prevent mulitple windows being opened?
    Also we have noticed that if we search the catalogue and add items to our shopping cart, when you go back to search the catalog, the last list of items is presented again. Is it possible to always display the "main" catalog page and not the last list of searched/found items?
    Regards,

    Hi Grace,
    I can help you partially.
    I think both of your problems are related to diff parameters of Integrated call structure which we define in
    SRM IMG->SRM->SRM server->cross applns->Master data->Define external web services.
    self service procurement config guide talks in detail how to maintain this integrated call structure.
    also you can check on help.sap.com

  • How to stop Firefox windows stealing focus from other Firefox windows?

    I am using Firefox 26.0 on Windows 7 and tend to brows using multiple windows instead of tabs. Frequently when I click on a link in one window, the new page will begin to load and suddenly a firefox window that is in the back ground pops to the front, stealing the focus from the window I had been browsing in.
    There is no consistent pattern as to which websites or pages are loaded into the background windows that suddenly decide to steal focus. Likewise there is no pattern as to which links or actions I use that seem to cause this to happen.
    Is this a known issue? It is driving me absolutely nuts!

  • How to stop popup window using phone layout for display - Responsive HTML5, RH11

    Hello,
    I'm using the new Responsive HTML5 output in RH11. For some of my hyperlinks, I want to use a pop-up to display the linked topic. In the output, the pop-ups work, but they are automatically displayed using the phone layout, with the associated navigation buttons at the bottom, the help title, and so on. I don't want this - I just want a plain popup window. So, I tried to add a Screen Profile, set to 400 x 500 pixels exactly (thinking that this is bigger than a phone, but smaller than a tablet). I also added a corresponding Screen Layout. In the popup properties, I set the popup size to be 400 x 500 pixels. I guess there is something else I need to do to get this to work... but I don't know what that is. (I tried creating a new Window on the Project Set-up tab, and I tried creating a different master page. These things didn't work.)
    Can anyone tell me if what I'm trying to do with these popups is just a bad idea and it won't work well with certain browsers?
    Thanks!
    Alexandra

    I am confused as the responsive layouts are one size fits all, that is the point of them. You have one layout that morphs according to window size.
    Screen Profiles are only used within Multiscreen HTML5 layouts where you can map screen profiles to different adaptive screen layouts, such as desktop, tablet and phone. That mapping does not apply to responsive layouts.

  • How to stop a windows process in java program?

    Thanks!

    Write a JNI function that uses the APIs OpenProcess and TerminateProcess.
    Beware - not all processes can be terminated by the TerminateProcess API. To prove my assertion, try killing some processes using the Task Manager. Even running your program as an administrator, you can't kill processes like Windows services.

  • How to stop multiple windows in foxfire

    Sorry if this is in the wrong category, but didn't see anywhere else to ask it.
    I recently bookmarked some a few new pages. When I select them form the bookmark tool bar the cone up in a side window which I can't seen to enlarge to full screen. When I try to drag the right side line nothing happens. I even re- bookmarked the address and it still comes up as a small view using about 1/4 the screen. Thanks in advance.

    If your problem is in Firefox, it might be better to seek support in the Firefox forums. The forums here are hosted by Apple and really only for support of Apple-branded hardware and software.

  • How to stop preview window from automatically getting focus when you move up/down the message list.

    Since updating (my TB was a few versions old) to 31.2, the preview window automatically gets focus when I move up/down the message list. I'm assuming this is a new "feature". Is there a way to shut this off and leave the focus on the message list so I can navigate up/down like before?

    You are referring to the 'Message Pane' which displays selected opened emails below the list of emails. It is not a 'preview'.
    When you select an email by either using mouse to click on an email in the list or using the arrow keys to select emails up and down the list, you are selecting an email to open and read. That is why it is being opened in the Message Pane so that you can read it.
    If you select an email in the list and then cllck anywhere else including in the Message Pane, then you will have moved focus away from the list and the strong highlight on email in list is reduced to paler highlight.
    When you click on an email in the list, the email becomes highlighted, at this point you can use eg: arrow keys to move up and down the list.
    If you are performing single left click on email in list and then do nothing else and the strong highlight auto changes to paler highlight.
    Check you do not have a conflict with an addon by starting Thunderbird in Safe Mode.
