Opening More Than One Browser Window

Hi all,
Mac Newbie here!
A quick question.
If i wish to open more than one browser window, how do i do it?
When i used to use a PC, i just clicked IE everytime i wanted to open another window.
However, if i try to do that with Safari, nothing happens.
I have looked through various settings pages but i cant seem to find anything to help.
Any ideas?

ADF UIX: communication between more than one browser window

Dear Sirs...
how can i open more than one browser window using ADF UIX and jdeveloper 10.1.2 such that the data entered in the second window affects the data in the first?
for example in the date field, a popup window appear that allows me to select the date, and then the selection appears in the first window.
how can i achieve something similar? i am using UIX not JSP
thanks for any help in advance
best regards

dear sir...
i am afraid you got me wrong, i am not talking about the database values.
let me give you an example of what i am trying to achieve:
1- create a date field, create an input forum to fill that field (uix page)
2- now you run the application, try to click the icon near the date field, a new popup window will appear, that helps you enter the date value.
3- when you select the value, the popup window disappears and the date is inserted into the forum
i am trying to achieve something similar.
thanks for your previous answer, but you got my question wrong.
best regards

Is it possible to open more than one project window in order to easily work out of two buried bins at a time?

Hey there,
I'm working on my second project where I need to frequently access multiple bins that are buried beneath several folders for organizations and it's becoming various tedious and inefficient to keep accessing them, scrolling all the way down to other bin, etc, yet I need them where they are for organizational purpose. Is there a way to open more than one bin in separate windows that I'm missing to make easy access? If not I'll submit a feature request.
Thanks,
Andrew

You might want to go into the Preferences and change the way that bins behave.

Is it possible to open more than one safari window at a time

Hi
Help appreciated?
Thanks
Paul

Greetings,
Yes, you can open more than one window at a time, but that would just clutter your screen and make it more difficult for you. Use File > New Window, or Command-N. It's better to use tabs in one window; that way everything is in front of you and you don't have other windows hidden behind each other. You can find that in Preferences > Tabs.

Can only open firefox once, have to restart to open more than one browser. can't upload any pictures the box doesn't pop up, my browser settings are diff now

Firefox just changed out of nowhere. I can only open firefox once... I used to have atleast 2 browsers up using them both on different sites, but now I can't have but one firefox browser up (not tabs, but firefox pages) Also when I am trying to upload images on ebay or any other site nothing happens... nothing pops up. I click it over and over and nothing even pops up. This is exactly what happens with the firefox browser in my first question... I can click the firefox icon a million times and nothing comes up. My tabs are all gone and it doesn't show anything like I had before this all changed? Did I reset everything some how? I do not recall clicking anything to go back... I do remember clicking an update because it kept poping up so I did it and that is the last thing I remember before this happened! UGHHH!

As I asked previously are you able to have tabs open as a window by using the right clicking option ?
When you close Firefox you should use
*'''Firefox button -> File -> Exit '''
Are you doing that ?
I suspect what may be happening is Firefox is hanging as it closes down.
* see [[Firefox hangs or is not responding - How to fix#w_firefox-hangs-when-you-quit-it]]_firefox-hangs-when-you-quit-it
* this explains how to check & if necessary kill the process [["Firefox is already running but is not responding" error message - How to fix it#w_end-firefox-processes]]_end-firefox-processes
A related possible problem is that you may have built up many copies of the restore files. These are stored in the Firefox profile. The easiest method of finding the profile location istouse
*use '''Firefox button -> Help -> Troubleshooting Information <br /> -> [Show Folder]'''
*see [[Profiles - Where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data]]
You need to look for the files ''sessionstore.js'' and numbered duplicates of that. Delete them.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

HDI open more than one playlist window in 11 for Mac?

I think the question says it all...
I do alot of futzing with my songs and playlists, and I prefer to keep several windows open and switch between them. Even with the sidebar restored (so it looks like the pre-11 iTunes main window) double clicking the gear/note icon no longer opens the playlist in a new window, like it used to... (I say it everytime... I should learn everything I can and watch all the preview videos and release notes and whatnot--and then wait a week or so after that, besides--before upgrading anything on my Mac. It's not that I'm opposed to change, but I do get set in my ways, and really dislike when an "upgrade" reduces or removes functionality that I use daily, and have come to rely on...)

(Replying to my own post...)
This really does seem to be a thing Apple did--(and on purpose, too):
http://discussions.apple.com/thread/4556088?start=0&tstart=0
And I concur with this comment in the other thread:
Please. Everybody feed back to Apple to restore the multiple window feature of iTunes. This was a terrible decision (if was intended).

Can't Open more than One Internet Browser at a Time

I bought a Toshiba laptop this past spring which I use, offline, at the office. i've had a problem with it since the day I hooked it up to the internet the first time. I can't open more than one internet browser at a time. Windows 7. I had need to get online with it today and had forgotten about this problem.
I called Toshiba and they wanted to sign me up to some fee-based service. They said, without checking anything (or even asking me who I am, or what my computer serial number is) that I had a virus. Is there a virus going around that causes this problem? IF so, how could I possibly get it considering I bought this computer in a sealed box?
My AV software does not pick up any viruses. I use Avast.
Can anybody help me?
Thanks.

Firefox will not open more than one window and upon restarting will not open the previous tab and refuses to open bookmarks

Firefox does not open more than one window. I can open plenty of tabs, but not more than one window. Upon closing firefox and trying to restart the browser will not open and needs to be closed through windows task manager. Upon trying to re-open Firefox I receive the 'oops this is embarassing , firefox cannot re-open your tabs" message. When I click on "new session" the bookmarks do not load. It is becoming very frustrating as I am a student and often do lots of research on the web while using lots of open windows.

More than one iTunes window open

I'm sure that I used to be able to have more than one iTunes window open at a time. I could have one showing the contents of my library and the other the contents of my iPod. This way by manually syncing, I could see what I'd already got on the iPod while browsing through the library to select new tunes to transfer. Has this feature been lost during a recent iTunes update (now running v8.1) or have I just forgotten how to do this - I'm sure it was easy to do?

It's OK - looks like you can't do this with a shuffle, I can do it with any of my other iPods plugged in but not the shuffle.

Firefox won't let me open more than one window at a time. how do i fix the problem

Firefox won't let me open more than one window at a time. It use to allow me to open multiple windows before but for no apparent reason it stopped. I uninstalled it and re-installed but I'm having the same problem. How do I fix the problem
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== several days ago

Why am I unable to open multiple tabs in the browser? It all of a sudden refused to let me open more than one at a time.

While on the internet, I tried to open two tabs, but it won't open any more for me. I tried right clicking and opening that way, but it won't let me. I removed Mozilla Firefox from my computer and re-downloaded it, but it still won't let me open more than one tab. It's happened to two of my computers now, and nothing works for either one except opening in safe mode every time.

More Than One App Window Open At A Time

Hi,
Having just done a complete fresh Erase & Install of OS X 10.6, after having had 10..4.11, I find that if I have more than one applications window open with another applications window on the screen ~ say a Finder window, and a Photoshop window, although if I select the "Show All" command, I can see them together on screen, but if I select either of the windows, the other applications window disappears ~ and it's driving me nuts ~ IYSWIM?
Although the disappearing or hidden window is useful, at times I find I need to drag something from one apps window to another. But if I try that, as soon as I select the item I wish to drag into the other app, that applications window disappears.
I know I'm being dense, but I just cannot sort it out. Can any kind soul please help or advise?
Many Thanks

No extra applications had been installed, just the OS X install, so to save time in the long term, I decided to reinstall OS X again, and now the problem is fixed.
With regards to your comments that an Erase & Install is a waste of time, I think thats a bit of a sweeping statement. As it depends on the situation and the users computer status. If you install programs on a regular basis, for say beta testing, then you can end up with a lot of crud in there. An erase & Install returns your machine to pristine condition. The important thing to remember is to plan well, and make good backups of your data, prefs and settings etc.
Thanks for responding all the same.
