Loss of place in discussions- resets to most recent page

Using the forums I often browse through previous pages of discussion topics. Sometimes I will get many pages back. But when I choose to view a topic of discussion, and then go back to the topic list page I came from, the site resets my page to the section of most recent topics. Necessitating going back those many pages that I just been reviewing.
Is there a setting on the site or in Safari to allow me to stay at my place in the list of discussions when I go back from the topic? I did look for archived discussions but nothing had come up.
Thanks!

How can I get FF to alt+tab to the most recent page and not the oldest as it does in winxp and previous versions od FF?

Previous versions of FF cycle through pages in the order of most
recent first as in WinXP when ALT+TAB are pressed but now it seems that the oldest is opened first. I have toggled the item suggested in
ABOUT:CONFIG but this has no effect. there have been numerous
suggestions using addons etc. but surely there is a way to reverse
the order of ALT+TABBING by some other, easier, means.

You can set the Integer pref browser.link.open_newwindow.override.external to "1" on the about:config page.

The browser.link.open_newwindow.override.external pref uses the same values as this pref for JavaScript window.open() calls.

When FF30 restores a session it truncates each tab's "back" history to the 10 most recent pages. What happened?

Previously FF would save all the previously visited pages up to the max specified in about:config (usually 50), but not it limits the number of "back" links to 10 + the current page. Addons like Session Manager have also been affected as any new session saved includes only the 10 most recent visited links. With FF's propensity to crash this is a major issue for me losing my browsing history.

Okay, I see now. There are some new preferences that you will need to adjust.
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box that appears above the list, type or paste '''sess''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click the '''browser.sessionstore.max_serialize_back''' preference (default=10) and enter the desired number of pages you want to be able to go Back in a restored tab. I haven't checked the source to see whether there is a limit.
(4) Double-click the '''browser.sessionstore.max_serialize_forward''' preference (default=-1) and enter the desired number of pages you want to be able to go Forward in a restored tab. I haven't checked the source to see whether there is a limit.

IWeb crashed. Most recent page (mostly) lost. Suggestions?

Okay, I've searched the forum and am afraid I already know the answer, but I'll post this anyway.
On a month-old iMac (24 inch, 3.06 GHz), I was working on a page yesterday of vacation pictures. I keep pages of pictures of my daughter for out-of-town relatives, creating a new page for each month. I just started the August page and was placing 145 captioned pictures on the page. Midway through, iWeb crashed, and when the app restarted, the August page had been replaced by a generic page with three "Drag Your Photos Here" frames. An hour's worth of work had evaporated. And, no, I had not saved.
So I started again--and this time I saved frequently. I eventually added all 145 pictures and captioned each. I saved and then uploaded to MobileMe. Then I left the computer to accomplish other tasks. When I returned, I saw the message that iWeb had again crashed and when I relaunched it--in spite of my multiple saves--the page was lost and iWeb had reverted to a pre-saved condition with the same generic page described above.
I went to the Domain.sites2 file and reopened it, but my August page was lost.
I searched the discussion threads. I read the iWeb FAQ pages (http://iwebfaq.org/site/iWebBackupretrieve.html). I used extensive profanity.
The most frustrating part is that it did correctly upload to MobileMe, so my family has access to these pictures... but I don't. I want to keep adding to the August page.
I understand that I'm probably going to have to recreate the page. *But I don't want to waste 90 minutes or 2 hours of my time just to have the same thing happen a third time*.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks.

To help you recover for unusual situations in the future you can use Varkgirl's Automator workflow which will compress (zip) and backup the contents of your User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder to the Documents folder. You can get if from Varkgirl's iWeb Tips and Tricks site. Or Click Here to download it directly from her site.
I've created a modified version which does not zip the domain file but copies the entire iWeb folder to the Desktop. You can edit the file with Automator to change the destination of the copied folder to wherever you'd like. You can download it from Toad's Cellar .

I don't want "most visited" pages to show up when I open a new tab

Is there a setting that allows me to disable having all my most recent pages visited showing up when I open a new tab?

This is what I did, hope this helps you:
# type about:config into the address bar
# Agree to not break anything at the prompt!
# Type "tab" in the search field at the top of the list
# Find the line that reads: browser.newtab.url
# Change the value to "about:blank"
# Close the config!

HT4864 I don't want additional old emails pushed to my phone. When I delete them, the prior 50 arrive. I only want the most recent. How do I reset this?

How can I reset my iCloud so that old email messages are not pushed to my phone. I'd only like the most recent messages visible in my inbox.

It was gift back in September. You can follow the instructions in the link below to remove them:

After resetting my IPad to factory settings, how can I reset to my most recent ICloud backup?

I have reset to factory setting on my IPad and would like to restore to my most recent backup setting on ICloud. How can I do this? Do i need to delete everything before I see the Setup Assistant option?

Yes. You have to erase the device in Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings.

I keep receiving Reset email password emails. The most recent one was actually addressed to someone else... i.e. the name in the email not the email address. why is this happening??

That's probably because it's been sent out to a Bcc'd mailing list and that's the name on the main version. This is so that you don't see the other names.
If it doesn't come from something @apple.com then it's spam. Even if it appears to it's probably spam. If you want to change your password go directly to http://appleid.apple.com - do not follow any links in the email (even if they appear to lead to that address.)

Missing place to discuss ECM solutions

Dear SAP colleagues
We have no place to discuss Enterprise Content Management (ECM) solutions, which are mainly provided by Open Text.
And actually there are discussions around Open Text but all they are strewn across all the forums.
In contrast, there is a dedicated thread for Adobe solutions, which are also 3rd party.
Thanks

I suggest you create an Idea on Idea place, provide the link to the idea here, tell your friends and other people who may be interested, get some votes on IP and hope it will be enough to prove your idea should be implemented.
Cheers Otto

Can I clear the "plays" in folders to start resetting my most played folder?

Can I clear the number of "plays" out by each song to allow me to reset my most played folder. I would like to clear the "count" of each song played through all floders.

Highlight the song(s) that you wish to reset. Right-click and choose "Reset Plays."

I have moved all of my movies from "Search for - All Movies" folder thinking they were shortcuts to the trash folder by mistake. Is there any way I can restore them to the right place on my system Note most are on an external hard drive. :(

You can drag them out of the trash folder to wherever you wish. There is no automatic way to restore them.
If you have a recent backup of your computer (at the risk of preaching, everyone should have one), restore them from there.

P.S. I have no clue what you did or why you have 44,000 on the external drive

I've updated to the most recent version of iTunes and I can no longer see any of my old music on my mac. All the music is still available on my ipad. How can i download the music on my mac?

First, are you positive it is really not there? Have you looked in your iTunes folder in your Music folder, and in the media folders there? Do you see your media files?
If your media are gone it is a lot easier to restore from a proper computer backup. Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.

Using most recent version of iTunes with Iphone 5, I cannot see the phone screen on iTunes.

I am using the most recent version of iTunes and when I connect my iPhone 5 to my Windows 7 pc, I can no longer see the screens for the iPhone in iTunes. I want to see them so I can rearrange my app icons. I see the apps but not in a iPhone screen view and they cannot be moved.

The most recent update erased all of my bookmarks. I tried the steps to find them and they are gone. This is not the first time this has happened and it extremely disuptive.

the most recent update resulted in a loss of ALL of my bookmarks. This is not the first time this has happened and it is very disruptive. I tried the steps suggested to find the bookmarks but that failed.

A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
