How to stop safari from auto completing url?

Re: Safari v. 5.1
OS: 10.6.8
How can I stop Safari from auto-completing url entries when I begin typing or entering a url in the http box i.e. can I turn this feature off?
Thanks,
Henrik

Unfortunaly, that's a problem.

  • How can I stop safari from auto completing url's on my iphone 4 and ipad2?

    How can I stop safari from auto completing url's on my iphone 4 and ipad2?  On both devices I have cleared history, I have gone into settings-safari-and cleared history and cleared cookies & data, tried turning my devices on and off and I also have private browsing turned on. Both devices are operating on iOS 5.  When I type in a url I don't want anything to show and auto complete.  Any suggestions?

    This indicates corrupt files.
    A restore should resolve.

  • How to stop Calendar from auto-completing addresses?

    When I want to add both the name and location of a place for a Calendar event's location (say, the name and address of a restaurant), Calendar and/or its integration with Maps will auto-complete the address.  But when it does, it removes the name, and only fills the address.
    Almost every time I then try to manually enter the name, it still changes it to address-only when I save it.
    Example:
    What I want it to look like:
    Restaurant Name
    123 Address Rd
    City, ST 00000
    But what it auto-fills:
    123 Address Rd
    City, ST 00000
    United States
    How do I get it to stop auto-changing it, and to accept my changes the way I want them?

    agreed!
    tho, i seem to be able to go back & "edit" it to put the restaurant name back in - but when i do, it looses the map connection (argh).

  • Stopping Safari from auto-opening all old windows

    I find Safari openning all of my windows from when I last shut down incredibly aggrivating. Not only to I not want it but it takes FOREVER to get its barings and even start to load all the pages. I don't understand why Lion has all of these incredibly un-useful features turned on by default with no clear way how to turn them off.
    If any one knows how to stop this from happening I'd greatly appriciate it. I've done a search and not really found anything. Thanks!

    3 or 4 things you can do.
    (1) Turn off this "resume" feature for all applications via the checkbox near the bottom of the System Preferences, General pane.
    (2) Close all windows by hand before you quit safari.
    (3) option-quit safari.
    (4) Launch Safari from the dock using shift-click.

  • How to stop Bridge from auto-launching

    I recently enabled a option to auto launch Bridge and I think I did it through inDesign CS5.
    Where do I stop Bridge from auto launching?
    Thank you for any help!
    Best,
    John

    You may find that it's not a 'Bridge' thing. I presume you are on a Mac... and have the lastest OS?
    When you do a hard shut down and then restart, any apps that were open will re-open.
    Also if you quit a program with something open. Quitting and restarting the program automatically opens what was previously open.
    I find that I have gotten into the habit of closing before quitting... quite annoying.
    I hope I didn't go off topic too much...

  • How to stop Lightroom from auto-adjusting RAW files

    Is there a way to stop Lightroom from automatically "fixing" my RAW files? When I first load them in they look perfect (like they do on the back of my camera), but then LR auto-adjusts them to make them dull and desaturated and not at all contrasty. Is there a way that I can set LR to not do anything to the files and let me decide what I want the original to look like?

    I totally understand where II is coming from. I too find it bothersome that in some images, the pre-processed preview is a more pleasing image than the unprocessed RAW. At the same time, it is the unprocessed nature of the RAW image that is the whole attraction and point to shooting RAW. An obvious workaround (if one is willing of course) is to shoot RAW+JPEG so as to either have the JPEG as a "target" reference or final image when suitable. And that is an option I used to employ until I got tired of dealing with the issues of essentially doubling the number of images I was working with.
    I do disagree with II's thought that the preview showing up is slowing down any processing of the RAW image. It would seem to me that the whole reason the preview is showing up is that it is a prerendered aspect of the file that pops up while the actual preview rendering is taking place. While I don't claim to have technical knowledge as to how this all works, I would think that LR is simply showing the initial rendering of what the RAW file is telling LR it looks like until LR can actually make it's OWN interpretation. Either way, the process is fast enough that it isn't a huge issue to me on my system. In fact, those images where I see a vast difference between the inital preview image and the LR rendered resolve no slower than the rest.
    It is interesting to know that there are applications/utilities out there that will extract that inital preview though. I thionk it would be very cool if LR made use of such a capability more directly as an option.
    Anyway, while the frequency of my use of LR so far pales in comparison to that of PS and Bridge, so far I can say that such discrepency between nice looking inital preview and less than so RAW is far less common than it is working with PS and Bridge CS2.

  • How to stop safari from redirecting you to an app?

    When I'm in safari and I want to click on a link for a website like Amazon or Google Maps, safari automatically redirects me the app without asking if I want to be redirected. Other than just deleting the app entirely from my phone, how do I stop this from happening?

    Specifically, which page is it?
    If the page uses rotating advertising, it could be that the entire page reloads every set interval and not the ad itself (which would be the smart thing to do) and thus forces the browser to be pushed back to the top of the page.
    If the page doesn't use advertising and just refreshes itself for new content every set interval, it could set Safari to the top of the page, too. In short, it seems like the problem is not on your end but rather the website.

  • How to stop Safari from realoading page and worst, start at the TOP?

    When clicking something, for example an article in an online newspaper, after reading, when you scroll back to the newspaper, Safari reloads and starts at the TOP of the page. This drives me crazy, and I have to work hard to figure out were I was in the very long frontpage of the online newspaper. Please help!
    PS! Opera DOES NOT do this. So I want Safari to behave like Opera :-)
    But Opera is not as good on a Mac as on a PC (I tried), so I have to use Safari, and therefore needs to figure this out.
    Please help! :-)

    This Apple-forum we now are using are a great example of the how totally useless Safari is.
    I tried to find answer for my question, and pressed "more" at the bottom of the page, and then "more" again and again until I found something interesting i want to read. So I was a bit down in the forum frontpage. Opened the forum-post, read and used mouse gestures to get back to the forum.
    Safari reloaded and startet at the top of the page, so now I must scroll down and press "more", scroll down again and press "more" again, scroll and press "more" and then once again, just to get where I was in the first place!!!
    Well, I am speachless. If this problem is unsolvable, I have no other choice than find another browser to use. This is just too stupid and it drives me crazy!
    So, you kind people out there, this is really an emergency.
    And if Apple-staff are reading this, well, you now know what you have to do, fix it immediately!

  • Make it stop! How to stop Safari from constantly asking to use a password even though I've "Denied" it 100s of times

    Since getting the new Mac Mini a few weeks ago, and using the new version of Safari, when I go to some websites I visit regularly Safari constantly asks if I want to use a certain password. I press Deny and keep getting asked the next time I visit that page, again, again and again.
    How can I make it stoppppppp.
    Specifics:  I develop for NetSuite users. NetSuitee- commerce sites use https://checkout.netsuite.com  as the URL and I need to have a test shopping account login for each site I manage. 
    On the backend of NetSuite, the part that no one sees, where we login to make changes to the site and items, etc.  the URL is   https://system.netsuite.com
    I have other completely different login passwords and accounts for logging in at that URL.
    The latest version of Safari constantly asks me if I want to use one of my checkout.netsuite.com  passwords every time I visit system.netsuite.com (which I have to do many times a day) I have to click   Deny  to each a every one of them, every time I visit the page. It's annoying as #$%@&.
    The older system/Safari didn't do that. It kept checkout.netsuite.com passwords separate from system.netSuite.com passwords and never asked me to use one on the other. How can I get back to the old functioning so I can have peace of mind once again?
    Thanks
    On a related note: Safari no longer saves passwords I create new at system.netsuite.com unless I first go into the Keychain and manually create a new password item. Is that normal, too, or do I have something set up incorrectly?

    Contact your wireless provider, have them reset your password, and try again.

  • How to stop logic from auto-snapping a midi recording to a grid?

    Everytime I record midi from my keyboard, logic auto snaps the size of the region to fill in to the next and previous complete bar. Is there some way to stop this? I've looked through the manual but can't find much. Thank you!

    There are options for snap values at the top of the Arrange Window, plus you can set them for individual Tracks.
    To fix the Regions which have already been recorded, you can simply drag the ends of the Region to where you actually want them to go (the cursor turns into a kind of bracket-with-an-arrow-in-it, a bit like this: ∑ when you're in the right place for end dragging). You can even tidy up several Regions at once. But of course you need to fix your snap value first!
