Is there a way to keep my app tabs set up if I clear my browsing history between sessions? (v. 4.0 on Mac OS 10.6.6)

Just downloaded version 4.0 yesterday, running on Mac OS 10.6.6. When I set up a few app tabs, they worked fine during the session but were gone when I restarted Firefox.
I usually have my preferences set to clear my browsing history, download history, forms, cache, active logins, and most cookies when I close Firefox. I changed them to clear everything else as usual but to remember my browsing history, and this seems to solve the problem - my app tabs reappeared when I restarted FF. Is there a setting I'm missing that would let me clear my history but maintain the app tabs across sessions?

Based on everything you have told us, Without a doubt, you need a lot more RAM installed in your iMac.
OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard can, at times, use up the full 4 GBs of RAM, for. itself, alone.
Your model iMac can take, a total of 16 GBs of RAM.
My advice is to install the max. 16 GBs of RAM.
Correct and reliable Mac RAM can be purchased from online Mac RAM sources Crucial memory or OWC (macsales.com).
RAM is user installable and very easy to do for beginning or novice computer users or novice computer upgraders.

  • Is there a way to keep selected apps that you have on your admin account inaccessible and unseen from another admin account on the same Mac?

    My sister and I share computers, but it's really her Mac because she got it for her birthday.  I'm using it because there is no other place to hold my iTunes library, documents, photos, etc.
    She complains that I make the computer too slow after I downloaded/installed too many apps from the Mac App Store using my admin account and my iTunes account.   However, they show up on her account as well, and she doesn't want to see them or have her computer slow down, so she deletes them.  Is there a way to make certain apps unseen and inaccessible from other admin users on the same machine?

    Only by storing them on an encrypted disk image. Anyone who has an administrator password to a Mac can use it to access all unencrypted data on the system.

  • Is there a way to keep the apps on my Ipod after upgrading to IOS 5?

    I plugged my Ipod touch (4th generation) into my mac and itunes prompted me to upgrade to IOS 5 (which I would like to do).  However, it says that I'll lose all my apps...
    Is there are way to restore these apps after the IOS 5 has been downloaded/installed?  I don't want to go ahead with this process if I have to buy all the apps (with all the information I've stored in them) again!
    thanks in advance for the help!

    - Transfer the app to the computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right-clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and selecting Back Up.
    - Restore the iPod from that backup. That should also update the iPod.

  • Is there a way to close a pinned tab without unpinning it or closing the browser completely?

    when i have one of my pinned tabs opened and i open a new tab, i cant find a way to close the pinned tab without closing the browser completly.
    is there a way to close a pinned tab?
    thanks.

    You can also middle-click a tab to close that tab and that also works for pinned tabs.

  • My brother and sister are on my account is there a way to keep the apps the download off my ipod after i sync?, My brother and sister are on my account is there a way to keep the apps the download off my ipod after i sync?

    Even though we are on seperate computers, when i sync my ipod to my computer the apps my brother downs loads is downloaded to mine. Is there a way to stop that?

    Hi seakat101,
    It sounds like one of two things is happening:
    1. You have something checked in the "Apps" page when you connect your iPod to iTunes, such as "Automatically sync new apps". Change the settings from there to fix the problem.
    2. You have Automatic Downloads enabled on your iPod. Go to Settings > Store and tap the "Apps" switch to OFF to fix the problem.
    Hope this helps,
    O.C.

  • I love using firefox app tabs, but they always disappear when I restart firefox. Is there any way to get chosen app tabs to load when firefox restarts?

    Firefox 5 has a great new feature called app tabs, but it looks like I'm stuck resetting them every time I quit firefox or restart my computer. It seems to me the whole point of "pinned" app tabs is that they're the sites you read most frequently, and therefore it would be useful if they loaded automatically when firefox was started. Is there a way to do this? Do I have firefox on the wrong settings? Or am I stuck re-creating my app tabs every time I restart my computer / firefox??

    Thanks for the reply, it seems to have solved my issue.
    My tabs are normal and unpinned, I just have Firefox set to open all my current tabs. Safe Mode didn't seem to have this issue, so I disabled Classic Theme Restorer. Several restarts didn't have problems, so I enabled it again and now this isn't happening anymore. Hopefully it stays gone for good and didn't just stop momentarily.
    Edit. So as soon as I posted this, it started happening again. More testing definitely points to Classic Theme Restorer as the cause, so I'll have to investigate solutions on that end.

  • Is there a way to "lock" an app tab so that it will stay on a specific domain?

    I use our family computer in the living room. I have told them numerous times not to change the app tab because I use it everyday, and I don't want it going to some game site. Unfortunately, they don't care and do it anyway. Is there a way that I can "lock" the tab so that it stays on that specific domain? example: facebook.com

    Unfortunately these don't lock tab by domain, but only a current page :( I'm also looking for a solution to enable domain browsing on locked tab. It seems like logical behavior, so I'm really surprised I can't find anything how to achieve it.

  • Is there a way to "pin as app tab" in the version for my Galaxy 10.1?

  • Is there a way to keep an app downloaded to the computer but take it off my iPhone?

    I'm just looking to get more space on my iPhone. And I don't necessarily want to delete apps I paid for completely. Can anyone direct me how to do that?

    In addition to Julian's good advice, on iPhone to remove an App without using iTunes, just hold down a finger on an iPhone screen App, when the icons jiggle about, tap the X of the App you want to remove from the iPhone, and remove it.

  • App Tabs seem like a good idea, but they disappear between sessions. I'm using Firefox 4 on a Mac.

    Not much more I can say. I pin a few websites, and that's cool. But when I quit and restart, they're gone.

    I have this same problem. Firefox 4 on 10.6.7 on a 2009 unibody Macbook Pro.
    I've noticed that I only have the problem when I'm using multiple monitors and my Firefox 4 window is to the left of the Mac OS X Menu Bar.
    My typical arrangement is: laptop monitor with firefox 4 window TO THE LEFT OF external Dell 24 inch monitor with Mac OS X Menu bar.
    Moving my Firefox 4 window to the external monitor allows me to open a window.

  • Is there a way to reagrrange my apps? or set up folders to put them into by subject?

    Is there a way to rearrange my Apps or set up folders to put them into by subject?

    An app or even part of the iOS, this would be a great function to have.
    My 5 year old loves playing games like Disney's Water? on the iPad. The only problem is, is that as it only allows 1 player and he ends up playing over my game and it drives me insane
    If there was a way to either hide it OR even have 2 copies installed would be perfect!
    Maybe the easy answer though is to just go and buy him his own iPad

  • Is there a way to keep the ADL open when testing CS5.5 Air apps after it loses focus?

    When I test Air applications (specifically targeting mobile) it seems that when the ADL (Air Debug Launcher) launches, it will automatically terminate the session when I click on anything else other than the ADL window.  I have been trying to use 3rd party application debuggers that provide improved memory diagnostics, but these debuggers only seem to be able to work when the application is launched through the Flash Player and not through the ADL.  Unfortunately, the Air specific code will only work in the ADL.  Is there some way to keep the ADL running even when it loses focus?  I have tried using the ADL from the Flash CS5.5 IDE as well as from the command line and both will terminate upon losing focus.

  • Is there any way to keep the old maps app?

    I'd upgrade, but maps the way it is now works very well for me and is one of the things I use most on my iPhone. Is there any way to keep the old version of maps when upgrading?

    No - just don't upgrade until Google release there maps app.  I wish I could go back to yesterday and give myself this advice.

  • Is there any way to undelete an App that was deleted by accident, while at the same time keeping all the info that was in the App?

    Is there any way to undelete an App that was deleted by accident, without loosing all the information that was in the App?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanx P.

    Only if you have an iPhone backup from the time before you deleted the app. App data and settings are part of the backup, but iTunes replaces the existing backup with a new one when you sync. Only backups used to restore the phone will not be replaced and marked with a time stamp.
    If you included the iphone backup folder into your computer backup routine, you could restore the folder and use the iphone backup to restore your phone. But all data will be set back to theat point in time when the backup was taken.
