New window in Safari puts page behind rather than in front. Why?

Recently when clicking on a link taking me to a new window the window puts itself at the bottom of the pile of open windows rather than on the top. Is there a way to re-set this? Thanks,

Thanks but I would have to use command>option>click in order to get that effect. I went back to reproduce the action from an email link and the new window came up in front. I'm going to test various links to sites from within Safari and via emails and will report back. Thanks for your time.

  • When I open a new tab, the yahoo search page loads rather than the blank page. How do I revert to the blank page setting?

    This only started yesterday, but it really bugs me. I can't figure out how to get rid of it!

    There's a hidden setting for new tabs. Here's how to access it:
    (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 above the list, type or paste '''newtab''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Double-click the '''browser.newtab.url''' preference and enter your preferred page:
    * ''Page thumbnails (default)'' => about:newtab
    * ''Blank tab'' => about:blank
    * ''Built-in Firefox home page'' => about:home
    * ''Any other page'' => full URL to the page
    Press Ctrl+t to open a new tab and verify that it worked. Fixed?

  • When creating a new window in safari, using command T, the marker have not activated the search field. It means you have to click there every time. Changed after upgrading to Mavericks. Anyone knows how to change this?

    Yes, you can do something like that. What you would do is create a button for each image and then hide them. When I do this type of thing I place all of the buttons on a template page and then hide the template.
    You can then use JavaScript to copy the icon from any of the hidden buttons to the main button that you've set up to display the image. For example, suppose you set up 10 buttons named b1, b2, b3, ...b10. The code to copy the icon from one of them to the button used to display the image (b0) would be something like this:
    // Get the icon from the b3 button
    var oIcon = getField("b3").buttonGetIcon();
    // Get  reference to the b0 button
    var f = getField("b0");
    // Set the icon of the b0 button to the icon retrieved from the hidden button
    f.buttonSetIcon(oIcon);
    // Show the b0 button
    f.display = display.visible;
    This code would go in the Mouse Up event of the smaller button.

  • Even though set to open to home page, Firefox always opens in a new tab and to the previous tabs. All settings seem correct. I just want it to open in a new window to my home page

    I cannot open Firefox in a clean new window to the home page. Options are set to open to home page and open new window in new tab is deselected. I do not want my history coming up every time I open. All new pages come up in a new tab with the existing one staying put.

    This happens when I have multiple windows open. I have one window minimized on the task bar. I then launch a new firefox window and start surfing, opening multiple tabs in that window. Then I close that window. (My original window is still minimized in the taskbar). Now, I launch a new firefox window and the tabs that I had opened in the window I had just closed are all back.
    If I close all windows and then launch firefox, it goes to my home page.
    FYI, I'm running Windows 7 64-bit.

  • When I use the shortcut to open a new window in safari (command N), I get a 404 error message from Google. How do I change where 'Command N' routes to?

    When I use the shortcut to open a new window in safari (command N) on my Macbook Pro, I get a 404 error message from Google. How do I change where 'Command N' routes to? 

    It's not necessary to change the Command N keystroke..
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
    Click:   Remove All Website Data
    Then delete the cache.
    Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
    Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that didn't help, troubleshoot Safari extensions.
    From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.

  • I want Firefox to open a new session each time I use it rather than to try to recover my previous one; how do I go about this?

    What more details do you need? I want to open a new session when I use your product rather than have the product go through the slow tedious process of trying to recreate the previous session.

    Please see this support article on [[Session Restore]]. Follow the instructions under the "Configuring session restore" header. When you get to the step where it says "Show my windows and tabs from last time" you can choose from showing your homepage or showing a blank page instead.

  • HT5429 How can I set back phone settings to go from a searched location in safari to apple maps rather than google directions?

    How can I set back phone settings to go from a searched location in safari to apple maps rather than google directions?

    Click Here enter destinations, link to page in iWeb or iFrame it by clicking on "Link to Page" from Google map. This may seem ironic but if you are looking for something the best way to find it is by searching Google. For instance Googling "google map directions" will send you to referenced page. for a sub-$20 app I find it hard to believe you find it hard to believe Apple hasn't integrated this feature into the software.
    Hope that helps!

  • The preview page shows a pink/purple background when i place a.swf file rather than a transparency why?

    The preview page shows a pink/purple background when i place a.swf file rather than a transparency why?Would you be kind enough to help?

    Hello,
    Usually pink\purple background appears when "Show Grid Overlay" is enabled.
    please go to View > Hide Grid Overlay and see if it works.
    I am not sure if it will fix the problem as you said that pink\purple background appears when you place a swf file only.
    If this do not fix the problem I would request you to share the screenshot of the design mode for better idea of the problem.
    Regards

    - If you restored the 5G frmm the iTunes backup of the 3G were th app in the iTunes library of the computer you used? They have to be.
    - If yes then try again. When I first restored my iPad 4 from the iTunes backup of my iPad 1 app data did not transfer. I tried again and it did.

  • I accidentally downloaded a windows based version of Elements 12 rather than a Mac based.

    I accidentally downloaded a windows based version of Elements 12 rather than a Mac based.  How do I undo this?

    What about if you go to Start>Control Panels>Programs and Features?  Is it listed there?  If not then you will want to run the installer again from the install files.  By default the install files are saved to your user folder.

  • Opening links as new windows -- desired Safari feature

    It would be SO nice to be able to browse a web page and somehow tap a link so that it would open in a new window rather than the existing window.

    The thing I find annoying is that when I close Safari it doesn't really close. The last web page I was on comes back up when you touch the Safari icon from the home screen. Why can't I specify a 'home page' that loads each time I open Safari or just a blank page? It's annoying if I was looking at a page hours ago and then open Safari again and up pop that's page.

  • Opening a New Window in Safari

    Is there a way to set your preferences so that when you click %, a new window opens IN FRONT of the current window? I used to be able to do this, but today it's started to open BEHIND the current window. I have to click % and shift for it to open correctly.
    I did download some system updates today - could that be why it's not updating correctly? Can I go back to a previous version of Safari?
    Thanks!
    * "%" signifies the little clover/apple key on the keyboard. I have no idea how to type that!

    I think the below is true for all versions of Safari that support tabs:
    Go to your Safari preferences (command "," or select from Safari menu). Go to the Tabs section. I believe the behavior you are looking for would be accomplished by deselecting the first check-box and selecting the second check box.
    Maybe the system update reset the Safari preferences to the default, and I believe the default is the behavior you are trying to achieve.

  • Links that open new windows in Safari instead of new Tabs...grrrr!!!!

    Why is it that when clicking on a link in a website sometimes open a new tab in the same window (which is great) an other times it opens a completely new window (annoying)? I have already ticked the box which tells safari to open new links in tabs rather than a new window, but it continues to open new windows...although not always. Firefox seems to handle this feature a lot better. Any ideas?

    Funny you should post this. I was just looking for this answer as well and I found this:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9343894&#9343894
    thread. Basically, enter:
    defaults write com.apple.Safari TargetedClicksCreateTabs -bool true
    in a terminal window and it will change to the behavior you desire. Change 'true' to 'false' to revert back.
