Safari 5.1.2 opens two of every window when selecting "Reopen all windows from last session" since the latest update.

Since the latest Saffari update to 5.1.2, every time I close Safari and reopen, and select "Reopen all windows from last session," two of every window opens. I must go through a long list under the 'Window' menu and select one of eac pair and close them. What a hassle.
Has anyone experienced this as well, and is there a fix?

is there a fix?

Open all pages from last session

Occasionally, safari will die. When I restart safari:
is there a function to open all pages from last session?
does firefox have this function? I thought I saw it within firefox, but I can't find it now. If this function is in firefox, where is it?

In Safari... History > Open all pages from last session
Firefox should do it automatically.

Ever since the latest update, my task bar (if it's called that - it's the one with "file,edit,view, etc") will "grey out" and I won't be able to type into any websites I visit. Only way to fix:either restart Firefox or reduce the window and open it again.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

The wheel click button does not open a new window since the latest update (9.0.1)

Hi
I just want to report this bug in hope it will be fixed asap
The wheel click button does not open a new window since the latest update (9.0.1)
Thank you

Middle-click or click the scroll-wheel on a hyperlink has always opened a '''new Tab'''. Any chance you had an add-on that changed that action, and now that add-on is disabled or incompatible?

Since the latest update of 3.5.11, firefox opens links in a new window. it used to open links in a new tab. how can i fix that?

The setting in "Tools > Options > Tabs" only works for links that would open in a new window.<br />
That option allow you to divert such calls to a new tab.<br />
For other links you either have to use a middle click or a Ctrl + left click or use the context menu.

What version of Safari do you have? If not version 6, can you update it to Safari 6?

Hi Gizzymoeaiden,
If you are having an issue with your iPhone asking for your iCloud password each time you try to send mail, it may be necessary to reset the password of the Apple ID you are using for iCloud. See this article for how -

Since the latest "update" Firefox crashes every time I open it

Since the latest Firefox update, the browser crashes every time I open it. Sometimes I get the "this is embarrasing screen" which asks to restore or start a new session. Either one has the same results - another crash.

Since the latest update of Firefox was installed on my Windows Vista Home Premium system it appears to be crashing and sometimes plays up by not opening requested sites in new windows, tabs etc. Should I uninstall and reload Firefox??

Also when closing tabs and windows the screen appears to momentarily go a blue color. This same blue color can also be seen when Firefox appears to crash or stall. If you try to open a new tab or a new window there appears to be some hesitation before the new window opens and sometimes the new window or tab simply refuses to open-you then have to shut down Firefox and restart to improve this.

Thanks Alan I tried disabling several items so far and the situation has improved but still not as stable as I would like. Systematic approach is the key here so I'll continue with a process of elimination.

Since the latest update, when I open Firefox , I get an "Exception..."Component returned failure code: 0x80004005....skype..ff_extension/content/browser Overlay.js

Within the past few days when there was a Firefox update, every time I start Firefox, I get the following message (shortened in the middle): Exception..."Component returned failure code: 0x80004005...skype_ff.extension/content/browser Overlay.js"
When I clicked on a link on the US Bank website, I received [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [ISkypeFfExtension.Initialize]" nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://skype_ff_extension/content/browserOverlay.js :: <TOP_LEVEL> :: line 9" data: no]
In both cases, if I click OK, the process I requested then takes place. What do I need to do?

If you're having this issue open Firefox, go to Tools on the Firefox tabs at the top of your browser window, and click on Add-ons. This will take you to your Add-ons page. Click on Extensions on the right side of the screen and scroll down to the Skype extension add-on. Click on "Disable" to disable this extension. Once this extension is disabled your problem should be fixed. In my case it repaired the problem.

Bookmarks opens in a window 2/3's the size of my screen since the latest update. Now the first bookmark I scroll over covers the whole window instead of too the side and I can't close it without closing the bookmarks window

I kept getting a reminder I had a Firefox update I needed to install. I did last night but never opened Firefox again till this morning. Now when I click on bookmarks for the drop down it opens a window almost 2/3's the size of my screen instead of the narrow window it has in the past. Now as soon as I move my mouse over or close to any bookmark it opens up that bookmark in the window and I can't access the bookmark I want. I have to close the whole window and then be very careful as I move my mouse to the correct bookmark. In the past with the narrow window it opened the bookmarks to the side and only after you clicked on them. I have tried to resize the window but can't find any option to do so. Also couldn't find an option that would let me change it so a bookmark had to be clicked on. If this can't be changed I will be removing Firefox. This is too inconvenient for me.

Take it to your local Apple Store or AASP, it's covered by a 1 year hardware warranty. If you have AppleCare then give them a call but I'm pretty sure they will advise the same. If you have not purchased AppleCare yet please do, this will extend the warranty to 3 years however it MUST be purchased within the first year of ownership. Let it go 366 days and you are out of luck. AppleCare will also include telephone support too.
Good luck.

Since the latest update, I cannot open new tabs in one of my profiles - I'm using XP SP2

My home page (www.gmx.co.uk) opens with no problem but I am unable to open a new tab from either the "+" beside the open tab or the File menu. Firefox Help does, though, automatically opens with a new tab.
The problem appears to be confined to one profile - infortunately my work profile - where I would normally have 4 or 5 tabs open whilst working. My personal profile (home page www.BBC.co.uk/news) seems unaffected.
For the time being, I am working round the problem by opening a series of 'Help' tabs to give me my workspace.

Safari don't open tabs from last session

Hello,
In Safari/Preferences in Safari Opens With I choose the option all tabs from last session (I've translate menus my safari was in portuguese so I don't know exactly how the options are in english).
But when I open safari, it's open only one blank tab, and don't open any tab from the last session, someone knows how can I solve this problem?
Thanks!

From the menu bar, select
 ▹ System Preferences... ▹ General
and uncheck the box marked

Opening the Creative Cloud menu in OS X force-switches spaces/full-screen apps in the latest update.

Whenever I want to access the Creative Cloud menu in the menu bar from a full screen app, Creative Cloud forces me to the normal desktop, and then opens the menu.
This is interesting since the latest update to Creative Cloud Desktop fixed a similar bug where switching spaces/full screen apps would automatically open the Creative Cloud menu.

Wow. Just wow. I am increasingly disappointed by Adobe's nonchalance towards the Adobe Creative Cloud application. Previously the app would pop up whenever you switch between desktops or full screen apps. We waited weeks for a fix. Now after the update they think they could get away with it by forcing the menu to only open on Desktop 1. Do they really think we are stupid?
I was skeptical when I heard about Creative Cloud, but I subscribed anyway because I was enticed by the new features Photoshop CC offers. Now I would rather go back to CS6, and the effects would be miniscule.

1. What's the difference between private mode in Safari which i have to turn on every time again when opening safari. It's a two click activity which i would love to be able to set in the preference as default.

1. What's the difference between private mode in Safari which i have to turn on every time again when opening safari.
It's a two click activity which i would love to be able to set in the preference as default. It's tyering when have to do it everyday a few times. (Yes, i'm one of many who have the "i like safari but since the update crash everyday a few times" syndrome...
Yes, i have updated my system.
Yes, i have repared disk permissions with disk utility.
Am open for any other help in both cases. Thank you upfront
2. and the "tell websites not to track me" under Safari - Preference - Privacy.

That box should prevent websites using trackers to log your movements on the Web to benefit advertisers. I have no idea if it does.
Safari can keep your browsing history private. When you turn on private browsing, Safari doesn’t remember the pages you visit, your search history, or your AutoFill information, so your partner cannot see where you have been, but you must also remember to also turn off acceptance of cookies.
In all other respects Private Browsing is not as private as you might think:
http://www.switchingtomac.com/tutorials/how-to-make-safaris-private-browsing-fea ture-actually-private/
http://www.insanely-great.com/news.php?id=9054
and then Apple's own advice from here: http://www.apple.com/pro/tips/privacy_safari.html
"Note that the Private Browsing option does not prevent Safari from collecting cookies (the preference files automatically generated by many websites). The Reset Safari option clears all cookies. If you want to delete only certain ones, choose Preferences from the Safari menu, click the Security tab, and then click Show Cookies. You can select and delete individual cookies from the list that appears. Careful, though — if you’re a frequent web user, this list can be very, very long."
which is itself incomplete, the relevant part being 'If you want to delete only certain ones.
To that end it is useful to have Safari Cookies installed, which is the only cookie manager available for Safari:
http://sweetpproductions.com/safaricookies/
which automatically deletes all cookies not marked as 'favourites' when closing Safari. It does the same for Flash Cookies, but they are subject for themselves:
From this website:
http://machacks.tv/2009/01/27/flushapp-flash-cookie-removal-tool-for-os-x/
For those who do not know about Flash cookies, more properly referred to as Local Shared Objects (LSO), they operate in a similar way to regular browser cookies but are stored outside the purview of your browser, meaning you cannot delete them from within your browser, whether Safari, Firefox, Opera or any other. Typically they are issued from sites or 3rd party sites that contain Adobe Flash content. Since virtually all internet advertising is delivered in Flash, Google/Doudleclick and all other internet advertising companies are sure to be tracking your browsing behavior with Flash cookies. These companies can see you traverse the Internet as you come upon the plethora of sites that contain their embedded advertising. Check out the Wikipedia entry here.
In Mac OS X they are stored in the following location:
/User’s Home Folder/Library/Preferences/Macromedia/Flash Player/#SharedObjects
The settings for the Flash cookies are stored in:
/User’s Home Folder/Library/Preferences/Macromedia/Flash Player/macromedia.com/support/flashplayer/sys
In OS X Local Shared Objects, or Flash Cookies, are appended with a .sol suffix. Flush deletes all the Flash cookies (.sol) and their settings.
Flush can be downloaded from that page.
If you want to retain certain Flash cookies but not others, the excellent add-on for Safari called SafariCookies now includes a setting for automatically deleting flash cookies you don't want to retain, when Safari is shut down, in the same as it deals with ordinary cookies:
http://www.sweetpproductions.com/safaricookies/index.htm
which not only does that but much more equally useful stuff!
This article covers the issue in more depth:
http://www.wired.com/epicenter/2009/08/you-deleted-your-cookies-think-again/
Flash cookies are also known as 'Zombie Cookies' and are used by a number of firms, including Hulu, MTV, and Myspace. Graham Cluley, senior technology consultant at the internet security firm Sophos, told BBC News that the source of the trouble was Adobe Flash itself, which he called "one of the weirdest programs on the planet".
"I think it's highly unlikely that these large companies have abused Flash cookies - which are different from browser cookies - with malicious intent," he said.
"I think it's much more likely that the vast majority of users are simply oblivious to the bizarre way in which Adobe allows them to configure the software."

Ghostery tracks the trackers and gives you a roll-call of the ad networks, behavioral data providers, web publishers, and other companies interested in your activity.

This provides an extension to Safari (also available for other browsers) that shows you what data tracking is active on each web page you visit, and enables you to block them.
