Preview has defaulted to 2 page view, how do I change it?

My Preview has defaulted to 2 page view, how do I change so that it opens PDFs in single page view?
Obviously I can do this every time I open pdf but that's crazy. I can't seem to find any preference files to delete.
Preview Version 4.2 (469.5)
Any ideas ?
thanking you very much in advance...

Welcome to the Apple discussions.
If nobody comes up with an easy adjustment, when Preview is not loaded, go into your library/preferences and rename com.apple.preview.plist and com.apple.preview.ImageSizingPresets.plist. Bring up Preview and you should be back to it's basic defaults, as it will recreate those files when it loads. If everything is OK, go back and drag the renamed files to the trash.

  • When openning firefox from the task bar it opens to the last page viewed how can I change that

    Whenever I open Firefox from the taskbar or the desktop icon it opens to the last session pages. Is there a way to change that back to the homepage.

    hello svicinanza, that is probably caused by the user.js file in your profile (it shouldn't be present anyway in case you haven't created it manually, since it can be used to overwrite your custom preferences).
    in order to resolve that, go to the firefox ''menu ≡ > help ? > troubleshooting information'', click on ''profile folder/show folder'' and close all firefox windows afterwards. a windows explorer window should open up - in there delete the file named '''user.js''' and restart the browser.

    afterwards try to set the options for your homepage in the firefox menu again: [[How to set the home page]]

  • Preview: In a group of PDF files in the same window, going to the next or a previous PDF file displays the bottom of PDF by default, not the top. How do you change this?

    Preview: In a group of PDF files in the same window, going to the next or a previous PDF file displays the bottom of PDF page by default, not the top of the PDF page. How do you change this? In Mac OS 10.9 and previous, going to the next or previous PDF file displays the top of the PDF by default. Is there a way to change this back? When I go to the next or previous PDF file, I want to first view the top of the page, not the bottom. This really doesn't make any sense. Any help? Thanks!

    open a new tab, it shows a Yahoo Search page. How do I change this?

    A new tab opens by default as a blank tab (about:blank).
    If that isn't the case then an extension has changed that behavior.

    You can middle-click or hold down Ctrl and left-click the Home button on the Navigation toolbar to open the Home page in a new tab.

    I'm not sure what is going on but try this.
    Open a program which allows you to edit text (on Windows I would suggest NotePad but I don't know what to use on MAC) You want a very simple text editor.
    Type your username as you want it.
    Highlight it and copy it to the clipboard. Go to the log on page and paste in the name from the clipboard.
    Maybe that will work.
    All I can think of about the first character becoming an upper case character is that it reminds me of some word processing programs - such as Word or Works - which always assume the first word of a sentence will begin with a capital letter and they change it for you.
    I don't know why this would be happening in your case, but that is what it reminds me of.
    Is there a spelling add-on or plug-in that might be coming into play here?
    I assume that you have no problems at work (you say this is happening on your home computer) so I would begin to look at differences between the two as to software installed, browser add-ons and plug-ins, etc.
    Maybe someone at the computer department at the school can help you track this down.

    You can't do that in Pages. If you need text in an arch use Art text 2 lite, free from the Mac AppStore.

  • I downloaded Firefox 4.01 and now when i open a new tab, i get a blank page, instead of my home page. How do I change that? Thanks

    I downloaded Firefox 4.01 and now when i open a new tab, i get a blank page instead of my home page. How can I default to my home page when a new tab opens?

    You can do that by using an add-on such as:
    * NewTabURL - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/newtaburl
    * New Tab Homepage - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage
    Another way of opening the home page in a new tab is to middle click on the home button in the navigation toolbar.

  • Materialized View - How can we change the Refresh_mode?

    Hi All,
    I have created a materialized view on a table in another schema.
    The refresh mode has been automatically set to "Demand". Therefore, when changes are made to the base table, they are not automatically copied to the Materialized View.
    Two questions:
    1. How do we "Demand" a refresh? Is that something we can do using the AppEx interface or do we need to run a SQL statement in SQL Workshop?
    2. Can we, using the AppEx interface, change the refresh mode?
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Cheers,
    Patrick Cimolini

    Hi Denes,
    Many thanks for the pointer. It has lead me to the related documentation.
    All I need now is for our DBA to give the schema owners the relevant privileges and I am off and running.
    Cheers,
