Safari open windows all untitled after quitting

When I shut down my computer and then reopen it, all the windows I had open in Safari are now listed as "untitled" I can still go to them, but I have no idea what any of the unlisted numbered windows refer to until I reopen all of them.  This question was asked at the Mavericks forum, which I do not have, and I do not have a "Close windows when quitting an application" option in the Safari general system preferences, which was proposed as a fix.
I have Safari Version 6.1.1 (7537.73.11)  and OS X version 10.7.5

Does anyone have a reply to this?

  • Safari opens Tabs again, even after quitting them!

    Hi guys,
    I'm having some annoying troubles with Safari for about 2 weeks now...
    When I quit Safari, it should normally reload all my last opened pages (f.ex: google, facebook,apple and twitter), but instead it ALLWAYS reopens the same 2 tabs (some minecraft site + facebook). this is pretty annoying because it does not go away. I've allready tried everything... closing tabs with cmd-W before quitting safari, checking and unchecking the "reopen windows" setting (wich btw rechecks itself after I quit an reopen "system preferences").
    anyone out there having the same problem?
    please help me
    thank you

    Back up all data if you haven’t already done so. Before proceeding, you must be sure you can restore your system to the state it’s in now. If you skip this step, no one but you will be responsible for the consequences. 
    Quit Safari if it’s running.
    Select /Applications/Safari in the Finder and open the Info window. There’s a checkbox in that window labeled “Open in 32-bit mode.” If that box is checked, uncheck it. Close the window.
    Hold down the option key and select Go > Library from the Finder menu bar. Delete the following items from the folder that opens (some may not exist):
    Caches/com.apple.Safari
    Caches/Metadata/Safari
    Saved Application State/com.apple.Safari.savedState
    Try Safari again. If it still doesn’t work right, quit again and move the following file to the Desktop:
    Safari/Bookmarks.plist
    Then delete the following items (some may not exist):
    Cookies/Cookies.binarycookies
    Cookies/Cookies.plist
    Preferences/com.apple.Safari.LSSharedFileList.plist
    Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
    Preferences/com.apple.Safari.RSS.plist
    PubSub/Database
    Safari
    Try again. This time Safari should perform normally, but your settings will be lost. Select File > Import Bookmarks from the Safari menu bar. Import from the bookmarks file you moved to the Desktop. Recreate the rest of your Safari settings. You can then delete the old bookmarks file.

  • Safari opens up all my saved pages...

    When I start safari on my macbook air, safari opens up all of my pages that I have saved on top. Why does this keep happening? Anyone else who has the same problem as I do?
    This problem is not something that all the suddenly popped up after updating my mac or anything. It's just something that happened over night a few months back. I talked with applecare on the phone, but they didn't seem to be able to fix this problem of mine. So now I'm hoping anyone here has a solution!

    Open the Safari preferences window and select the General tab. From the menu labeled
              New windows open with:
    select

  • Window doesn't open window all the way using "+" sign

    I made the switch from Windows to Mac a few years back and besides not having a HDD activity light, the biggest pet peeve I have about Apple's OS's is that they don't allow you to click on the "+" sign in the upper left hand corner of an open window to get the window to open fully or maybe it's a trick that I haven't been taught. I works when you use it while using "TextEdit" but not on other applications that I've used. They added that feature to Safari for Windows so I'm sure that it would be no problem to insert that line of code in Leopard or Tiger that would take care of that. It would be moot point to ask Apple why so my question is, does anyone know of a 3rd party app. that does that job for you? The only reason I'm asking is because it's a real time saver for me and I'm sure for a lot of others.

    firstmacnewbie,
    I'll explain the issue, even though it doesn't help you. You see, Windows does a few things as a result of historic deficiencies that it has had. Just so we're clear, these deficiencies are no longer present in modern versions of Windows, but Windows users are accustomed to the little quirks that accompany them- all of which still exist in Windows- nonetheless.
    Most of these issues relate to Windows' historic lack of multi-tasking. In your case, you are used to the behaviors of a machine and OS that will only display one window at a time, one application at a time (again, this is historically, but the tendencies still exist). When Windows would only display one application window, users got into the habit of viewing and using only one thing at a time.
    Another glaring difference that springs from the same historic lack of multi-tasking is the use of "cut and paste" for file system objects. Because Windows would only display one "snapshot" of the file system, in one window, some "workaround" had to be invented to allow users to move files from one place to another. Thus "cut and paste." Because the Mac OS has almost always been able to display multiple windows, and has almost always had drag and drop functionality, user were able to simply drag files from one place to another. No "cut and paste" was needed. Keep in mind that "cut and paste" is an abstract concept, not related to reality, while drag and drop is very much intuitive and realistic (when you want to move a real object somewhere, you cannot simply toss it up in the air, trusting that it will stay in some abstract "ether" until its destination is convenient. No, you must physically move it from the first place to the second, holding it in the meantime).
    Getting back to your specific issue: You would be better served by getting used to the way things are in Mac OS, which is designed around the concept of having and using multiple open windows. This precludes opening windows up beyond their reasonable usefulness. This is especially true with today's modern displays, which sport high resolutions and large amounts of Desktop "real estate." I actually have my Safari window opened up a little beyond what is necessary to display any and all web pages, and it still consumes not much more than half of my display. Why would I want to open it more (it wouldn't show any more of any web page), hampering my ability to access either the Finder or some other application? Why would you? Again, you would be better served by "unlearning" your Windows habits.

  • Why is this happening:  when I zoom in one open window, all my other open windows are zoomed too!

    This just started happening quite recently and it's really annoying me, but I can't find a preference where I can switch it off.
    If I'm working on an illustration and zoom in on a detail, I'll find that any other open windows (within Photoshop CS2) have zoomed with exactly the same amount too, and I have to resize them all. Very time consuming when I'm zapping between open windows. Is this a setting I've inadvertantly clicked or a bug in the software?
    Any tips much appreciated :-)

    'fraid not. Thanks anyway!
    Bit of additional info… this problem only seems to occur when I use the zoom tool (both in and out)
    I can use cmd + or cmd - with no problem

  • Open windows losing cursor after seconds

  • Why does safari 5.1.3 reset after quit, after updating to Mac OS X 10.7.3?

    I updated to 10.7.3 today and I set Safari up. I turned off my computer and later when I turned it back on Safari was completely reset and all the settings I had set were gone. This also happens when I quit or exit out of Safari too. What is the problem, this is getting annoying because I have reset Safari every time I reboot my computer.

    HI ...
    Disabling the Lion (v10.7) "resume" feature may help...
    Open System Preferences > General
    Deselect:  Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps
    Restart your Mac.

  • Firefox will not open at all. After click the hourglass comes up and then goes away and nothing happens at all. Nothing will load past the desktop. I cannot get into firefox at all to enable anything or disable anything.

    When i click on the mozilla icon on the desktop the arrow will spin (VISTA) and will then disappear. Mozilla will not enable or even pop up or anything. I am still looking at the desktop and not mozilla. I lick on the icon many times and nothing ever enables, still stuck looking at the desktop and no Internet. Not to bring up your rival, but IE will open half way and then say not responding and will freeze and i must restart the computer every time. I have to use opera now because IE and Mozilla will not enable and Mozilla wont even pop up or enable or anything...just the desktop and no net. ONCE AGAIN MOZILLA WILL NOT ENABLE, SO I CANNOT GO TO TOOLS OR ANYTHING.

    I have exactly the same issue. After FF upgraded on its own to version 5, it won't open from start menu, taskbar, desktop icon, or even by pressing firefox.exe in program files directory. It does so by pressing a link at msn messenger, inside Outlook etc.
    Disabling all addons, didn't help. Moreover, I can't start FF in safe mode or start profile manager (Start > Run> firefox.exe -ProfileManager).

  • Safari Minimized Windows Get Lost After Restart

    If I have any minimized windows when I quit Safari, I can't make them visible after I re-launch Safari without some extra trickery.
    They are shown in the Window menu, with the "◆" bullet prepended, but when I select one of them, the bullet is replaced by a ckeck mark, and the frontmost window loses focus, but the minimized window isn't shown. It's as if the window is fronmost but not visible, as if it were positioned outside of the viewing area.
    If I then select View > Enter Full Screen, the window becomes visible and remains so after I exit full screen mode.
    Has anyone else seen this behavior? It's obviously a bug of some sort, but I wanted to see if anyone else has experienced it bufore I report it. I have a hunch that it might be limited to Safari 7 and Mavericks running on older hardware. I'm currently using Safari 7.0.4 in OS X Mavericks (10.9.3), but I have noticed this ever since upgrading to Mavericks. I'm not sure exactly how old my MacBook Pro is, but it's old.

    Is this system in domain ? 
    The new group policy is named “Force
    a specific default lock screen image” and can be found in this path in the group policy editor: “Computer Configuration\Policies\Administrative
    Templates\Control Panel\Personalization”
    Is this configured?

  • Safari opening last visited page after restarting browser

    Just Upgraded to Lion, and whenever I completely quit Safari (Command+Q) and start Safari again, it reloads the page I was on when I quit.
    I checked the settings, and have it set for new windows to open home page, and home page is set to www.google.com (hitting home key takes me there)
    How do I turn off the "Revisit" setting?

    Okay, okay... apparently you have to close out of System Preferences before it takes effect, even if you go to a different section.  The solution is good.  I just wish we could specify on a per-application basis.  (I want to open my last used projects and documents; however, I don't consider web-browsing a project or a document on which I am working.)

  • Firefox will not open at all, even after rebooting & re-installing - IE opens normally - what can I do?

    I've used Firefox since version 3 - really like it compared to others.
    This morning, after booting up Firefox wouldn't open. It worked when the PC was shut down last night. The eggtimer comes on briefly, then nothing. Internet Explorer works fine, as does Mailwasher (for email) and MS Outlook, so it's not an internet problem.
    I'm running XP Service Pack 3 (no, really, still), with Webroot Secure Anywhere internet security.
    I've tried rebooting - no effect
    I've tried removing, rebooting, and reinstalling - no effect
    I've tried launching it from a link within a mail message - no effect
    I've tried launching it from the Start-Run line with the ~p option as in your FAQ - no effect
    I've tried re-installing Adobe Flash Player, Java, Shockwave, etc..
    The closest I've got to something to go on is when trying to launch a console from Webroot, when I got "Browser launch error 1073741819" - but this could be a Webroot error code.
    I'm not sure what else to do - almost all your FAQ's assume you can get into the program.
    The only thing I can think is that webroot removed a threat this morning, but I can't find any saved scan log as to what it was - clutching at straws, maybe that had something to do with it?
    Maybe this is linked, but i'm having to write this on a different PC because the Mozilla webpages don't display properly in IE (all the other sites I can find display normally) So the installed plug-ins won't reflect what I have on the PC in question

    It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full, unrestricted, access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Firefox 4 could not be made to show bookmarks on Vista 64bit. I used system restore to get back to older version. Now Firefox won't open at all even after undoing system restore

    I use Vista 64 bit. Was fine with older Version of Firefox (3.6, I believe). Upgraded to Ver. 4. Couldn't access extensive bookmarks file or bookmarks toolbar. Tried all the Firefox help recs and they didn't work. Clicking the top button would give list of toolbars but when I tried to move to bookmarks toolbar the menu changed. Tried going thru tools and options and that didn't work. So decided to use System Restore to get old Firefox version back. Icons remained but program wouldn't open. Tried many ways, including start menu. Old version is still on program control file but only option is to uninstall. So went back to System Restore to get Vers. 4 back and it's not there. What to do?? I can use Google Chrome or Internet Explorer but I want all my 100's of bookmarks back. Thank you.

  • Safari Open Windows In New Tab Bug

    In Safari when opening a window in a new tab by right clicking on a link. If you have a number of other tabs open to the right of the tab you are opening from then it will usually open the tab to the right of that tab as you are opening a page from the same site. but this does not always happen so I would consider this a bug. It used to be that it always opened it as the last tab which I think works best as you alwys know that it will work like that. The current implementation is just confusing in its inconsistencies.

    In the article you linked to it says "But in Safari 5.1, opening a link in a new tab causes it materialize directly to the right of your current tab."
    Which is of course the same as Chrome. However in Safari 5.1 it does not always do this, only sometimes and therefore I would call this a bug.

  • Safari opening twice after update

    After latest update, Safari 7.04 is opening up twice and when I close one window they both close. Is this a bug in the new version?

    Go to Safari > Preferences > General
    Select: A new window from the Safari opens with: pop up menu
    Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that doesn't hep, delete the cache.
    Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
    Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Quit and relaunch Safari to test.

  • Email not opening This is a sudden thing, Email had been working fine for two months then today would not stay open now it will not open at all. after trying to open mail I receive a white screen for a nano second and the app closes

    Email not opening on my iPad2 This is a sudden thing, email had been working fine since purchasing the device then today would not stay open,  now it will not open at all. After trying to open mail I receive a white screen for a nano second and the app closes.

    Have you tried closing the Mail app completely ? From the home screen (i.e. not with Mail 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
