Is there any way to close just the "current tab" in firefox rather than all 3 or 4 that may be open and lose the entire web page?

If I am on a website and open a few different pages, and then decide to go back to an earlier page, or close that particular page, I get a message that says you are about to close 3 tabs or 4 tabs etc. If I only want to close the "current tab" I am on, I was able to do that with Internet Explorer. Is there any way this can be done on Firefox?

For more help, see the '''[[Tabbed browsing]]''' page.

    - If you have a 1G ipod you can't update past 3.1.3.  To identify yourd see:
    Identifying iPod models
    - Be aware that if you can/do update the iOS to the latest (4.2.1 for a 2G and 4.3.4 for a 3G) you may not be able to sync to the old computer since that computer will need the latest iTunes to see/sync with the update iPod.  Yo need an Max with at least OSX 10.5.8.
    You can transfer iTunes purchases from the iPod to the computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    You can use on of the third-party programs dicussed here to transfer other stuff:
    new PC: Apple Support Communities
    Unless you can move/copy the iPod backup file to the new computer you will loose all app data and restore from that backup. That file is located:
    Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\

  • I was syncing everything to itunes and I tried to do my contacts, not knowing quite how. I ended up erasing all of them from my phone without any of them syncing to my computer or itunes. Is there any way I can get them back? I really need them all.

    There are lots of ideas floating on the web for this particular issue - all of which I tried. I had the same problem and it turned out to be my USB cable. I thought the cable was fine as it would charge my phone and play but the data transfer pin was bent. I replaced the cable and it fixed the problem. Worth a shot as it is an easy fix!

  • How can I close the current tab in Firefox v 17.0.1?

    I have used Firefox for years and have always used Tabs instead of opening new windows. I have always been able to click the little "X" on the right side of the tab to close it. I am finding now that I cannot close the current tab by doing this. I have to click on another open tab and then click on the other tab I wanted to close.
    I have looked through the Options many times trying to see if there is a setting I need to change, but have not found anything.
    Is it possible in this version of Firefox (v17.0.1) to close the current tab?

    I started Firefox in SAFE MODE and the problem went away. I checked for updates and all were up to date. I then restarted Firefox and it worked fine. Since I didn't really do anything, I am curious as to why it is now working as expected. I am glad, but still curious.
    Thank you.

  • After upgrading to 10.0.2 version, sometimes the current tab of Firefox hangs.

    After upgrading to 10.0.2 version, sometimes the current tab of Firefox hangs (become unresponsive) for some seconds.
    It happens in many websites (in support.mozilla.org site too) even with simple pages.
    Frequency: 4-5 times a day.

    Hi gibe,
    Have you looked at our [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-slow-or-takes-too-long-start performance troubleshooting section]? There is a lot of good information in there that should help.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • Is there any way to load just ONE java application at the same time?

    I'm using 'jnlp' to load java applications and I want to load just one application at the same time.
    Is there any way to do that?
    I have been trying to use 'findLoadedClass' but it doesn't work.
    Also I've tried to make a file when a application is loading and delete when the application exits.
    but it has a problem when the user terminates the application.
    (the file can't be deleted...)
    The applications are using socket to receive data, all of them uses same port. That's why I want to load just one application at a time, otherwise they work wrong way.

    Do you actually mean you want to make sure that only one instance of a GIVEN Java program is running at one time? If so then search this forum becuse this question comes up frequently.

  • Is there any way to lock just for settings?

    When I let my son 5 to play my iPad.  He sometimes click Settings and play around and caused change the settings.  Is there any possible to lock just for settings.  When you click the settings and it must have passcode to change anything in settings. 

    Settings>General>Restrictions>Enable Restrictions. Take a look at this.
    iOS: Understanding Restrictions (Parental Controls) - Support - Apple
    You could move the settings app into a folder on another screen that your son might not be apt to look in. Put in a folder on a home screen that he doesn't use. Keep his stuff accessible on one of the first home screens and encourage him to not stray from that screen.

  • Is there any way to run Siri on my iPad(iOS 6) with Local WiFi Network which requires a proxy sever and a port(8080) to connect to the internet?

    I create the WiFi network using the internet sharing option in my Macbook Pro from a local ethernet connection..and set the HTTP proxy settings in my new iPad.Siri runs like a charm on an other WiFi connection which doesnt require proxy but on my University connection it says that it cant handle any requests right now..

    We were having the same problem here at the School I work at.  By looking at some traffic logs and doing some internal testing, it appears Siri attempts to make a direct connection to the outside network using HTTPS (port 443), without using any of the proxy settings you may have configured on the Wifi network.
    We've reported it as a bug to Apple but haven't heard anything back yet.
    To get around it in the meantime you'll have to punch a hole in your firewall to allow Siri traffic through.
    Currently Siri appears to contact IP address 17.174.4.14 over port 443.  The IP address may change in the future, but that will at least get you up and going for now.  We went ahead and opened the entire 17.174.4.0/24 network, as the entire block of addressess is owned by Apple.
    Again, there is no gaurentee that this will not change in the future and break again.
    Good luck!

  • Is there any way to use Internet Explorer on a Mac? I have one insurance company that I do business with that you must use internet explorer

    Is  there any way to use Internet Explorer on a Mac Book Pro? I have one company that I do business with that only uses Internet Explorer

    Internet Explorer is not available for Mac.
    But you can make Safari pretend to be Internet Explorer in some cases.
        Safari > Preference > Advanced
        Checkmark the box for "Show Develop menu in menu bar".
        "Develop" menu will appear in the Safari menu bar.
        Click Develop, move mouse down to "User Agent".
        Select Internet Explorer from popup on the rightside.
        After using Internet Explorer, revert back to Safari, doing the same routine.

  • HT3554 Is there any way to enable my iMac to use an external mic after I have found that it is not compatible? Via some kind of device or upgrade?

    I'm trying to use my Apple headphones a mic on GarageBand. After about an hour of researching, I've found that my iMac (Mid 2007) is not compatible with an external audio input/microphone. Is there any way I can make it so I CAN do this, maybe by installing some kind of software or doing an update or something? I'm a song recorder on a budget so these headphones are all I got for a mic. PLEASE HELP!!!!

    Check out the mics at Apple's Online store by clicking the store tab at the top of this website. 

  • Is there any way to do a manual session restore if Firefox doesn't open your previous session - and doesn't give you that option?

    I've got Firefox configured correctly and it always opens my last session. However, sometimes when the computer crashes and a second Firefox window is open (this time it was either a pop-up window or the Firefox update window), Firefox only recognizes that window as the "last session," and it loses the most recent multi-tab session. (Hmm, maybe what I need is "re-open recent sessionS" or "last multi-tab session" ?!)
    Anyway ... is there any way I can retrieve yesterday's open tabs without picking through my history and finding them one-by-one?

    The presence of a sessionstore file with a number (sessionstore-1.js) indicates that at one time there has been a problem with accessing sessionstore.js and that Firefox wasn't able to rename sessionstore-1.js to sessionstore.js
    You can see by the file date of sessionstore-1.js when that has happened and if it an old file then you can remove it or you can try to copy that file to sessionstore.js to see which session it brings back.
    Make a backup copy of all sessionstore.* files elsewhere to be sure that you do not lose a session before doing that.

  • I want ALT+F4 to close the active Tab (CTRL+W) rather than the whole window.

    Since I've bound the "Close" (ALT+F4) action to one of the auxiliary mouse buttons, when I'm in Firefox I'd like the button to close a tab instead of the whole window.
    Binding another mouse button to CTRL+W could be done, but I'd like to have only one button to the "Close" action bound in the mouse and I want it to close a single tab not all the window in Firefox.
    Thank you.

    You can use Ctrl+F4 to close the current tab. I don't think that you can change the Alt+F4 action with Keyconfig.

  • Is there any way to close download windows that remain all black and open after the downloading ?

    Hi,
    I have my download windows that remain black and open after the downloading achieved. The only button active is the red cross but seems to be inoperative...
    I can have couple of them open at the end of the day at the same time.
    I have already tried to uninstall/resinstall but the problem remains...
    For info, i am running firefox on a Mac OS.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hello,
    Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
    You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
    Then perform these steps:
    *Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
    *In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
    *In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
    *Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
    Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
    * [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
    * [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.
