Remembering last opened position

Numbers doesn't seem to be able to remember the last opened position of a spreadsheet. Whenever I close a large spreadsheet, and reopen it, it is never where I left it, but always several pages up. Is this something I am doing wrong? Or, is it not possible to remember the last position?
Thanks.

Thanks for the comments, but I still think it shouldn't be doing what it's doing. In Pages, the last position is displayed upon reopening the file even when there is zoom to 125% or 150%. In Numbers, only 100% will redisplay the last position. As a matter of interest, I've got round the problem by increasing the font size to a size readable at 100%. It is only a workaround as it is too large a size for my Macbook, and I keep the files in sync. However you can't win them all, so to speak!
I must thank all of you who have replied to my query. I think this Forum is ideal, not only for direct answers, but also to get the grey cells working in different directions.

CS5 not remembering last window position

I'm trying to get CS5 to remember the last window position (which is on my Cintiq) but it always defaults back to my main monitor on start up. I've restored the default workspace which solved the problem at first, but now it refuses to remember the position again. It's annoying having to reposition the window every time I relaunch Photoshop...
Has anyone else encountered this problem? I don't have this issue with CS4.
I'm using Vista 64.

Check your graphics card settings for application profiles. Such issues are 90% of the time related to window and dialog repositioning in the driver, not the app itself.

How can I get Numbers to retain last opened position across my devices?

I am a regular user of Numbers on my iMac (mid-2010), my iPad v3 and iPhone 5s.
Ever since Mavericks came in and the many iWork updates that happened alongside it I have been unable to keep the same cell position in sync across my devices. So when opening one of my main spreadsheets it always opens at the top and I always have to scroll down to update my data.
I don't remember this being a problem between iOS devices before that, it always went to the correct location. Until Mavericks I didn't sync with the Mac version as it was too clunky. They did a great job of fixing the sync part but lost this feature.
Hope this makes sense. To summarise, my use case is that I open a large spreadsheet on any device to update it but it does not take me to my last entry, it goes to the top of the spreadsheet. That is not helpful to me, I want the last entry point regardless of idevice used to access it.
Hope someone has an answer!
Thanks.

Camino : How to remember last scroll position on previous viewed page?

I am switching from Safari to Camino. Sa far it was a good experience except one issue:
When i scroll to half way of a page and click a link, i will be directed to the link within the same tab. After finished viewing the new link, i press the DELETE button to return to the previous page. Camino returns to previous page but not remembering the location, in this case which is the half way of the page. It just loads back the previous page and scrolls to the top again
Is there any way to configure Camino to remember the last scroll location of the previous page?

I'm not sure there's a way to do what you want, but if you select command click on a link "open in new window" in Camino prefs, you should have the original window and scroll position in place behind the new window.
Hope this helps,
Miriam

How do I make built-in Firefox PDF viewer to remember last viewed position in PDF file?

Because for now, it doesn't. I have a big PDF book and I'd like to pick it up from where I finished last time.
And there's no "bookmark page in PDF" function.

hello r5ha, there is a bookmark icon on the right of the pdf viewer toolbar - when you right-click it you can create a bookmark that will bring you back to the position in the document where you have left...

SkyGo does not remember last watched position

Dear Sky, Along with my other gripe of SkyGo now wanting to access wifi for already downloaded content, I have another issue. When a programme is paused and the iPad locks after a screen timeout, or you shut the app for any other reason, it no longer remembers where you were when the app "sleeps".. It now startts the programme for the very beginnibg. This can be quite annoying and ustrating, especially if you watha a programme normally without keeping an eye on the progress bar or timer. Again this has only stared happening relatively recently, but its now getting beyond a joke.
I've used the app for a few years now and it QA control seems to be diminishing. This reset happens when either connected or not to any network. My iOS is versio 8.4 and my app version is 4.3.4 Many thanksGary Conor

The app remembers position properly on IOS 8.3 and below. Something Apple have changed in 8.4 (and 9 beta) has broken it.
Sky are aware of it and are now investigating. Although not sure how you can blame this one on a lack of QA testing - the app was released before Apple released their update.

Feature Request: reopen each PDF at the last open page

I love many things about Reader for Android, but I read many books at the same time, so for me it is missing one crucial feature: please enhance Reader to reopen each PDF at the last open page. Currently if I switch from one PDF to another, when I return to the first, it forgets what page I was on, so there's no way to use Reader for my real reading of PDF books.
Everything else about Reader is fantastic, so I really hope you can make this improvement.
Thanks
Jim

Thanks Jim , for appreciating Adobe Reader and for the feature request on remembering last opened page for a pdf . It is one of the top few priorities for us. We would try to include this at earliest in our next major update.
Thanks again.

[Desktop] Remember the size, position and monitor last used when Spotify was closed

I always use Spotify on my smaller secondary monitor, but every time it loads it appears on my primary monitor and is the "default" size, so I need to move it to the other monitor and resize the window on a daily basis. Could Spotify remember the last know position and size it was set to, and automatically load using these settings next time it's opened? Thanks,James

Bridge not Remembering Last Position for Side Panels?

The side panels in Bridge CS6 will not stay to the last set position when I close? I have thought that this was a case of bridge not closing properly on Windows (7) shutdown. I then tried setting the side panels to where I would like them and went File > Exit to close bridge properly and when I launch it still does not have the correct position. Does it not remember this and how do I change this?
Here is a screenshot of what I am calling the side panels: http://screencast.com/t/QDZGNCPp (The red arrows are pointing to the side panels.)

If you have start Bridge at launch enabled you closing proceedure should work.
Have you tried setting your panels where you want then saving this as a workspace?

Remembering last position

I've added the new Harry Potter CDs to my Ipod, but these consist of over 1000 1 or 2 minutres tracks.
Is there any way of getting my ipod to remember where I last finished. I ticked "Remember last position" against all, the tracks but this only seems to work on each short track
Thanks
Ainsley

I can think of two solutions.
One would be to use the program iTunesJoin (can be downloaded from versiontracker.com) to join the tracks from each CD--it will create chapter markers where each original track was. If you have 13 CD's, you could then have 13 long tracks with each track containing chapter markers for the smaller original tracks.
The 2nd possible solution would be to place the CD tracks in order in a smartlist. Make is so that the smartlist only contained the HP album trakcs, only contained tracks whose playcount was 0, and set to live update. As you listen to a track, it will automatically drop off of the playlist.
I actually combined these two solutions. Used iTunesJoin so that I wasn't dealing with 100's-1000's of tracks and then used the smartlist so that each CD/track dropped off once I listened to it. Then when I went back to the playlist, it automatically started with the first CD that hadn't hit a playcount of 0 and picked up wherever in the CD/track I left off.
Hope this makes sense. I know that it sounds kind of confusing.

ITunes forgetting "Remember Last Position" setting

Hi, first post
Have a problem with iTunes that's only started happening recently. I have put some audiobooks into iTunes, selected them all, right click, Get Info, and tick "Remember Last Position" and "Skip When Shuffling". Click OK, then if I immediately go back into "Get Info" and look again, they've gone back to their default position of not remembering, and not skipping when shuffling.
If I choose an individual file and try to do the same, those two options are greyed out and can't be changed....which is odd.
Am I doing something wrong, or does it sound like a bug?
Thanks in advance

Those 2 settings are stored in a file named iTunes Library.itl, I'm pretty sure, instead of the actual content file tags.
I suspect your Win 7 permissions aren't allowing itunes to change it, somehow. Which is really weird, if you can still add music.
When things are grayed out in the Info screen, it usually comes down to windows permissions. Even if you are the only user and an admin account.
Make sure you have *full control* and ownership of that file. Here is quick lesson with screenshots on changing permissions, whether you want delete it, or in your case, modify it.
http://helpdeskgeek.com/windows-7/windows-7-how-to-delete-files-protected-by-tru stedinstaller/
Remember to restart itunes after changing any permissions, so it will read the new settings.
If it still doesn't let you make changes, try temporarily turning off UAC.

How do I make the "Open new tab" button positioned at the end of the tab strip, on the right, next to the last open tab, just as the standard Firefox should be.

My "Open a new tab" button (the +) does not appear at the end of the tab strip, it does not look like it is given in all photos here in the support page. It did not look like this before either. Now I have it at the most left end i.e. before the tabs begin. I can move it to the most right, but it sticks there. I want it to be attached to the last open tab, as it used to be, and as is shown in example Firefox photos.
Could be useful if I sent you a print screen, but I don't see an attachment option here.
Thanks!

Remember window scroll positions

one thing that drives me mad with bridge is that it doesn't remember the scroll position of windows.
for example:
* i have a browser window open in bridge, with a load of folders full of images [i always sort my pohotos into folders labelled by date taken, so this is a common occurence]
* i scroll to the bottom of the browser window and doubleclick one of the folders to open it.
* i do whatever i need to do with the photos inside
* i hit the back button to return me to the browser window for the enclosing folder
* instead of returning me to the window, scrolled to where i left it, bridge scrolls the window to the top. so i have to scroll back down again to find the next folder of images i want to open.
it's really annoying and something that almost no other app or OS does. even a web browser window remembers where it was scrolled to, when you hit the back button.
please fix this adobe!

Hi Elangsru,
No there is not such program that does do that for you.
I using a 24" Mac and ALL of my Applications that I use open ad FULL SCREEN.
How I did that? Open one by one the Applications you are using and drag the window to the size you like, that's it. Next time you open the same Application it will be open at full screen ore what ever size you set it to.
PS. the only Application I use and is NOT opening to the size I set it ore use it the last time is PhotoShop.

Is there a way to save the last curor position in Numbers?

Is there a way to save the last curor position in Numbers? We have a custom Budget spreadsheet but every time we open the file, we have to scoll to the bottom of the spreadsheet.
There are several thousand entries, and every time we open it, we have to scroll to the bottom of the screen which is getting fairly annoying.
Every time we open it, regardless of what sheet or cell we are in when it is saved previously, it opens at the top....
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

reverse the order of you entries and add rows at the top of the table. That is have newest date entries at the top and oldest at the bottom
