Safari and open pages/tabs

Is there any way to remove all the open tabs (automatically) after quitting Safari on the iPad?
The problem is that I have Google set as a Home Screen icon, which I prefer to use instead of launching the Safari app directly. Each time I open Google, it's actually opening a new page and keeping all the previous pages open, which eventually slows down Safari to the point where I need to go in and remove all of the open pages manually.

I really don't know. Even if you go to settings and delete history, cache and cookies... the previous web pages are still there.
I tried "perfect browser" in the apps store ($3) and it's better.
Good luck

    Hi Demo,
    Yes, I have not made myself clear, I apologise.
    I have tried downloading apps from itunes in order to set up a game for my son, when I go to click on a link, be this in itunes, or on the web, Safari revolts back informing the address is invalid. I read by coping a link and pasting into the URL, this would do it, but not so.
    My goal then, is to install Minecraft for my son, I would then download an app to allow this but I am unable to get this far due to Safari insulting the address I ask it to go to
    The iPad is first generation
    OS 5.1.1 Software up to date.
    Thank you in advance for your time

  • When trying to update app I get a message saying " Safari cannot open page because address is invalid" help! I use iPad 1. Thank you.

    I have the iPad basic first edition. For some reason my app store app is missing. On my games when I tried to update the apps I get a message that says safari cannot open page because address is invalid, but this happens even when I click directly on the prompt message that comes up when loading game. Also, it seems that my app store app has been deleted? I don't know how to get it back. When I try to download it I get the same safari message as afore mentioned.

    Swipe to seethe farthest home screen to the left. Type in App Store in the search box and see if the app may have been accidentally placed into a folder with another app.
    You cannot download apps using Safari.

  • DW CS3 crashes when closing open pages/tabs

    So, I have no rhyme or reason for why this happens, but it happens often. When I have open pages I am working on - 1, 2, 5, 8, 10 - it does not matter, and I go to either (1) command W or (2) hit the little close "x" on the open page/tab.. sometimes DW just crashes. Like I said, there is no pattern to when and if it will crash, no pattern to if it happens if I click the "x" or try Control W and no pattern if I have 2 pages or 10 pages open.
    The real outcome issue here, besides just the simple PITA factor for such a costly high end app to be doing this, is that I can no longer "undo" anything I was editing.
    Any ideas on why or how to fix?

    Have you put that particular page through the validators to see if there are other issues on the page - just to be sure.  I've truly not heard of such a thing happening when using width auto.....

  • App tabs and web page tabs not saved when Apple Mac is powered down

    Using Firefox with Apple Mac running OS X v 10.7.1 and Parallels 6, and Windows Vista as a virtual computer. Have Firefox 6.o installed on the Mac and Firefox 6.0 for Windows installed within Microsoft Vista running under Parallels 6 as a virtual machine.
    Issue 1) Within Mozilla on the Mac whenever I power down and restart the computer all my app tabs and web page tabs are lost except for my home page, even though I have set up Firefox preference to remember my open web pages/tabs.
    Issue 2) Within Firefox running within Vista on the virtual machine my web pages are remembered but I cannot figure out how to create a app tab.

    Tabs are only saved if you close (Firefox > Quit) the Firefox application while those tabs are still showing. If you close a window and still have the menu bar visible then you wont reopen already close tabs. You may need to be able to reopen the three last closed windows via History > Recently closed Windows.

  • I keep getting a message "safari cannot open page [page name with header information] because you are not connected to the internet.

    I keep getting a message "safari cannot open page [page name with header information] because you are not connected to the internet.  Then I check CNN for a time stamp, and I am connected to the internet.  I have reset everything suggested in other posts, ensured any other device that could be hogging bandwidth is off, the router is reset, the iPad is reset.  The other devices are not having this problem, and it happens on both places I use the iPad, the university library, (getting a second degree after a change in a long time career and at home. Any insight into this issue would be appreciated.

  • Is there any way to disable electric whining on the 2011 Macbooks Pro, when scrolling in Firefox and opening new tabs?

    This happens only in Firefox w/o addons; under Mac OS X 10.6.7

    To specify the issue: A high-frequency noise can be heard coming from the left upper side of the Macbook (from beneath the 1 key). It can only be heard when scrolling and opening new tabs in firefox and is not influenced by the volume level and muting.

  • All of a sudded, my firefox browser isnt allowing my to click links and open pages, or open anything on the top area of the screen.

    All of a sudded, my firefox browser isnt allowing my to click links and open pages, or open anything on the top area of the screen. For example i go to my email and i cant click on inbox, send, create, folders, mark as unread. It is like this on every website?? Its really annoying i cant do anything becasue most sites have login at the top of the screen and i cant login to anything.

    That problem can be caused by the Yahoo! Toolbar that extents too much downwards and covers the top part of the browser window and thus makes links in that part of the screen not clickable.

  • Safari 5.1.9 problems in OSX10.6.8 (won't open pages/tabs-buggy)

    Hi,
    My rig:
    OSX 10.6.8
    iMac Late 2006 Intel Core 2 Duo 4Gb RAM
    Safari 5.1.9
    I have two tabs that are working ok: facebook & Gmail, but Safari fails to open new tabs.
    When I try to open other sites in a new tab, I get the "safari can't open the page because it can't connect to the server" error.
    The internet is working ok as Firefox is fine.
    I've updated the security patches for Snow Leopard.
    I've done the Java updates.
    I've also tried re-installing Safari via download from Apple.
    I've run Disk Utility to repair the disk (does it actually do anything?)
    I've tried repaired permissions via Onyx & Disk Utility.
    All I want is a reliable browser!
    Is this Apple's twisted way to get people to update from Snow Leopard and/or buy a new iMacs??
    I tried Chrome & its a piece of crap - so slow & buggy!!
    Firefox is ok atm but it does crash ocassionally (that's why I ditched it some time ago).
    I went back to Safari (my previous default browser) & maybe it was a bad move!?
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Cheers,
    Vic.

    Hi,
    I managed to solve the issue by stumbling across a thread on FineTunedMac.
    I was actually about to close the tab then glanced at it.
    In the end the problem was with Little Snitch 2.3.6.
    Somehow it had blocked any connection on port 80 & once I deleted that the world was good again.
    Strange!!
    Thanks for your help.
    Will closing down Java create any issues with web browsing?
    I've checked my extensions & they're set up to auto update in preferences, so I assume they should be ok.
    Kind Regards,
    Vic.

  • Safari prefs open Pages in Tabs "Always" not working??

    For some reason Safari "open pages in tabs"+"always" setting has just stopped working. Tabs can be created by opt-clicking, or from within the tab menu bar but NOT by clicking on a link in a page - which it used to. I have deleted Safari plist and cache but no luck. I have made numerous changes in the prefs menu and saved and reset and relaunched Safari but it does not work. I used to be able to open every link into a new tab just by clicking but this has just stopped happening and there was no new software added to Safari. Restart of machine does not help either. Any clues? Thanks and cheers! Sam

    Reinstalling the same version of Safari would have no effect. What I'm asking is whether there was a change in the behavior of the same version (not the same copy.) If there was, please link to a page that exhibits the change and specify exactly what it is.
    It's normal for Safari not to open all links in a new window, regardless of settings. The effect of that setting is to open pages in a new window when the page code calls for them to open in a new tab. That's all.
