SharePoint - Set as Home Page URL

Hi Guys,
I noticed there is inconsistency in term of how SharePoint display its Home Page URL at browser (this is on SharePoint 2013, not sure if this is also for other SharePoint version).
Here is the current issue.
I have a Pages library and i set one of the aspx as Homepage (button available in the "Page" ribbon > "Make Homepage").
Somehow or whatsoever, the URL in the browser when i navigate to my home page
e.g. http://mysharepoint.com/
The browser address bar automatically shows "http://mysharepoint.com/Pages/XXX.aspx"
While on another SharePoint farm that i have, when i navigate to its homepage (http://anothersharepoint.com), the browser show "http://anothersharepoint.com/" WITHOUT the "pages/xxx.aspx"
Did i not set the homepage correctly? Does anyone know pls? Assuming i would like to hide the "Pages/xxxx.aspx" from browser.

I think the difference between the two sites is that one is using regular navigation and the second is using managed metadata navigation.
Regular navigation - you get the whole ugly SharePoint path (/pages/xxx.aspx)
Managed Navigation - SharePoint creates "friendly" URLs based on your navigation term set, and for the home page, it would show http://yourspsite.com without anything after.
As far as I can tell this has nothing to do with setting home page, it probably happens to all pages within the site.

How do I set the Home Page for a newly open tab using the File Tab Menu??

When I open a new tab, is there a way to set the home page the new tab will use when it is opened, or will new tabs always be opened as blank pages?

I have new windows opening when I click on a link. Or when I click on the FF-Icon. New windows are the default setting.
When a new window opens, I get a Google home page and can instantly type in a search phrase.
With the above in mind, sometimes I want to keep search classes in the same window. In a sense I'm using the Window with no tabs, to generate a tab by using the File Tab option.
When a Tab is selected where new windows will launch a new page, and not a new tab, the process of forcing a new tab onto the window will produce a tab page that is Blank, and the new tab label description displayed in the tab area shows the words "New Tab". That tab's URL address bar is blank. Zip - nothing displayed.
When a blank page tab appears, I click on the HOME button you helped me remodel, and the "New Tab" description in the tab label area changes from "New Tab" to "Google".
My question was to ask, if there was a way I could do something to make FF4 do that Home page assignment on its own. In the early FF days I found you could sometimes go into the bowels of FF, find some form of INI or SETTINGS type file, look for a Keyword reference that would tell FF to do something different, and Viola, emotional issue resolved. In this case, I'm trying to "Gild the Lilly" by asking if you, or someone else might have a rabbit they can pull out of their hat, just like you did when you helped me move my Home button, and have that rabbit show me how to do something that default FF-Options section doesn't support.
Did I do a better job of explaining the issue this time?
Thanks again for the response.

How can I set the home page in iPad safari?

Opening Safari, the screen shows the last page used. Is it possible to set a home page so that, for example, Sfari always opens with the Google search page?

Safari doesn't have a homepage as such, but you can create a homescreen shortcut for a particular page : go to the page that you want and then tap the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it to the left of the URL address field and you should get an option to 'Add To Home Screen'. You can then just tap shortcut on your homescreen to open Safari on that page (it will still re-open any other tabs that you had open when you closed Safari)

Web content home page URL

It would be slick if there were a Home Page URL attribute that could be set when uploading content. A checkbox to include or not. An entry field to include the relative path to home.

Forgot the use case.
A typical use case.
Photographs from multiple activities are uploaded to a hosting site using LR2.
Football photos go to /myschoolhomepage/photos/football.
Prom photos go to /myschoolhomepage/photos/outandabout.
Graduation photos go to /myschoolhomepage/photos/at_last.
In each case, the Home Page attribute is checked and the entry field is populated with "/myschoolhomepage/index.html".
Each time new content is uploaded from LR2, the site administrator updates /myschoolhomepage/index.html to include navigation to the new content.

I tried setting my home page many times and it does not carry at restart. I followed the intructions. My home page keeps going back to some old setting.

I set my home page on multiple (5 or 6) web sites. As long as I do not close the session I do not lose it. But if I close the session and start over, my settings are gone and my home page is set to some bad URL I acquired during installation.

Do you have the FastStart extension?
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
*Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes

In the Options box, no matter what I set my Home Page to (Current Pages, Blank Page, Default) I am unable to change my homepage settings; they absolutely will not change and I can't figure it out.

Up to about a month ago, I never had any problems setting my Home Page to Using Current Pages. Then, all of a sudden, I am unable to make any changes to my Home Page no matter what I change the settings to. I work for the US Forest Service and I don't know if some program was loaded that prohibits any changes from being made. Any help would be most appreciated.

I updated Firefox to version 29.0.1 and now it won't let me set a home page.

When I open Firefox, it opens to the Trovi search page, which I don't want. I tried setting the home page by opening the site that I want and dragging its tab to the Home icon, but it didn't change the home page. I also cannot change the default search engine. Selecting a different search engine in the drop-down box does nothing.

It could be the work of one of your add-ons, or even add / mal-ware.
Look thru your add-ons list and make sure you know what each one is
there for. Also,
'''''Windows > Start > Control Panel > Uninstall Programs.'''''
Go thru the list and use a web search to check any that you don't
know what they are.

How to set multiple home pages, the option is gone (replaced my hard drive and had to reinstall firefox) This version seems to only offer tabs, not pages?

My old version of Firefox had the option for me to set multiple home pages. My hard drive recently failed and had to be replaced, so I had to install the newest version of Firefox. The only option I see when I go to tools, options, general is to set the one home page. (and maybe tabs) I would like to open several of the same pages every time I open my Firefox. Does anyone know how to get this back, or which version had this feature so I can downgrade to that particular version?
Also, I was wondering if there is a way to get the bookmarks I had on the old version back. I think they are lost forever, but if anyone knows, I would be thankful. I do still have the old hard drive, but the way it failed was actually when you tried to open any browser, the hard drive would go and blue screen, this is why the old hard drive had to be replaced. Thanks. :)

So you mean you want to open new windows with the same page when you open Firefox?
[[How to set the home page#w_set-more-than-one-website-as-your-home-page|Set more than one website as your home page]] should help if you want to open multiple pages when you open Firefox.
As for recovering your bookmarks, you can try to plug that hard drive into a working computer, and then read [[Recovering important data from an old profile]] to copy your bookmarks from it. However, if it is failing you may not be able to do that.

@RFNAPLES
If you leave a webpage up there without closing it from the tabs it should always return, otherwise tap the "three dots" bottom right of screen and scroll down to"pin to start" and you will then have a new tile upon homescreen.

Setting the home page to be computer, rather than user specific

I run a computer lab and would like to set the home page to be computer, rather than user specific. Is this possible ?

Use a mozilla.cfg file in the Firefox program folder to lock prefs or specify default values for all users.
Place a file local-settings.js in the defaults\pref folder where you also find the file channel-prefs.js to specify using mozilla.cfg.
pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0); // use this to disable the byte-shift
See:
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences
You can use these functions in mozilla.cfg:
defaultPref(); // set new default value
pref(); // set pref, but allow changes in current session
lockPref(); // lock pref, disallow changes
pref("browser.startup.homepage", "<your preferred home page>");

Setting the home page if you are blind using a screen reader,impossible, not accessible!

I am a blind user, yes my screen is off, using Window Eyes v7.2 screen reader by "www.gwmicro.com" who recomend Firefox. I cannot set my home page because it is NOT accessible via a $1200 screen reader because Firefox chooses to EXCLUDE visually impaired users. And furthermore, tries to exclude visually impaired users from even registering because they ONLY take Visual confirmation, extremely obnoxious and descriminatory!

The folks at NotebookCheck do the kind of benchmarks you reference. You can see their results at:
http://www.notebookcheck.net/Lenovo-ThinkPad-W550s-Workstation-Review.137989.0.html
The tests I ran were just to help me decide which laptop to use since I now have both.
I do use ATTO as well as CrystalDiskMark for disk/SSD read and write testing. Of course both go off the map when you enable RAPID in the Lenovo with the Samsung 850 Pro installed. RAPID does actually speed up work processing...not just wow the I/O test software.
I was getting about 550/450 MB/s read/write with both laptops before I enabled RAPID. With RAPID I get 3345 read and 1833 write with the Lenovo.
Too bad RAPID does not work with all Samsung SSD storage devices.
