Stop Safari pages from reloading when selected.

Safari in iPad is driving me crazy. Unlike tabs in Safari for Mac, the pages on the iPad seem to be hardwired to reload when you select them (I usually have several pages open and need to switch back and forth between them). And that means lots of wasted time waiting for pages to reload and many times the new page refreshes with different content so I've lost the exact page I was on. Is there a way to stop Safari from auto-reloading pages when they are selected? I'd prefer to have to manually initiate refreshes.

Your advice didn't work for me. Safari was the only app I had running, and I only had two tabs. I was attempting to post in school discussion forum. I opened a new tab, and found the link I wanted to reference. When I returned to the discussion board tab, the page reloaded and I lost everything I had typed thus far.
I have a 16GB iPad 2 with 12GB free. Only one app running and two tabs open and yet it still did this.
Any thoughts on why that might be?

I don't want to have to click the allow button every 3 seconds uploading video, how do I disable the "firefox prevented the page from reloading" when I've already put the site on my exceptions list?

I begin uploading video to Facebook and a small window opens to show the progress bar but, the video stops uploading about every 5% when a notification comes from the top bar stating: "Firefox prevented the page from reloading" with an Allow button on the right. Regardless of clicking the allow button and putting Facebook in every exception list Firefox options seems to have or even turning pop up blockers off, that dam button keeps coming! How do I prevent or disable this?

I get a message saying "Firefox has prevented this page from reloading" when I am trying to load video to Facebook which stops it from loading. I click "allow" and the message just reappears. How do I allow this function?

Message reads "Firefox prevented this page from automatically reloading".

See:
* Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"
The setting in "Tools > Options > Advanced > General" is meant as an accessibility feature, as you can see by the label of that section, so that people with disabilities or people who use screen readers do not get confused and is not meant as a safety protection to stop redirecting.

Safari - page auto reloading when switching panes

So far, I love the iPad. However, my first complaint is hen I switch between web page panes. For instance, I am trying to fill out a form on one, but need to grab some info off another page. When i switch back, Safari automatically, reloads the page and clears any information I might have had filled out. This is very counter productive, not to mention, very annoying. Especially, if the page has a lot of pictures, etc.... Anyone having the same problem?

This is a complaint in every iPad forum I've seen (like one at MacRumors). Seems it's due to the only 256mb of RAM in the iPad. Heavily graphic pages use up memory. Opening another heavy graphic page might require that the other one surrender its memory. Thus it needs to reload when it comes back. It's very annoying. I'm sure future iPad's will have more RAM memory, but I doubt there will be any easy way or even possible way to upgrade RAM on our debut models.

That is a bug, so you need to wait until this get fixed.

How to stop the executable from starting when opened

Hi Guys,
I am building an exe with the application builder. I am not able to find a way to stop the exe from running when opened. I dont need the exe to run. I know I m missing a very basic step here but I m not able to do that.
Could anyone explain me how to do this.
Regards,
Nitin

Hello,
This is Dominic L. from Applications Engineering at National Instruments. This was reported to R&D (CAR#41DAPUQU) and was fixed in LabVIEW 8.2.1. Here is a link to the current evaluation software download for LabVIEW:
http://digital.ni.com/demo.nsf/websearch/14f9ce475127ade786256ac60070926c?opendocument
This particular bug actually renders all the build options for source file settings unusable. While the other options can be set manually in the source VI properties, the start-up VI will always run when an executable is opened.
Here are three different workarounds to this:
Option 1 - Upgrade to 8.2.1.
Option 2 - Check "Enable debugging" and "Wait for debugger on launch" in the Advanced page of the build specification. One side effect is this will include the block diagrams of the VIs and extra code for debug tool support. Note that if you don't protect the source code (block diagram), it kind of defeats the purpose of creating an executable.
Option 3 - Use a dummy startup VI to launch the desired startup VI.
For the third workaround, the attached "Dummy Startup VI.vi" uses VI server to open the desired startup VI's front panel and then closes. To use the Dummy Startup VI follow these steps:
Add the Dummy Startup VI to the project.
Open the Dummy Startup VI and change "Main VI.vi" to the VI you would like to open but not run in the project and save.
In the source files page of the build, select the Dummy Startup VI as a startup VI and the VI you would like to open but not run as a support VI.
Build and run.
I hope this helps.
Have a great evening!
Best Regards,
Dominic L.

FF prevents pages from reloading each time & I have to click allow. How do I adjust this to allow pages to load .

whenever I have on facebook & switch from page to page (tab to tab) when it refreshes & tries to reload the page it has a pop up that states FF prevents this page from reloading....allow? I have to click allow repeatedly or close out the window to get the page to load. I need this pop up block to stop & have looked under options for a place to stop it & cannot locate the area to prevent it.

Need help stopping home page from appearing

Hello:
I've designed and programed the site www.pawsandclawspets.com
but I can't figure our how to keep the home page from flashing when
going from one page to the next. I have all my movies loading onto
a level above it and don't want to hide the home page entirely as I
am using the nav at the top on all the pages.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!

The first image on your page is this:
<img id="logo" src="
http://test.inspiringmen.com/images/logo.png"
... />
onload=function(){
var imgs=[
"/images/logo.png",
"/images/another.png",
"/images/yetanother.jpg",
"/images/onemore.jpg"];
document.getElementById("logo").src=imgs[(+new
Date())%imgs.length];
This assumes that the "images" folder is at the root level of
your site.
You may add or remove image paths from the "imgs" array at
will.

Every time I restart my mac air some applications like calendar and Microsoft word automatically starts, how can I stop such applications from starting when ever I restart my mac

Every time I restart my mac air some applications like calendar and Microsoft word automatically starts, how can I stop such applications from starting when ever I restart my mac?

One thing to check: when shutting down or restarting, there is a checkbox in the shutdown/restart dialog which asks whether you want currently open applications to open at startup.

HT6074 stop pages from reloading automatically

Wondering how to stop Safari from reloading web pages automatically when I go back to my previous page. It's annoying scrolling back to my previous spot when im surfing the web.

Your advice didn't work for me. Safari was the only app I had running, and I only had two tabs. I was attempting to post in school discussion forum. I opened a new tab, and found the link I wanted to reference. When I returned to the discussion board tab, the page reloaded and I lost everything I had typed thus far.

Foxfire is preventing a page from reloading even after I allow it. How do I stop that?

I'm enrolled in an online business training program called Power Sellers College. In that site, there is a private messaging system that I may use to correspond with my instructor, other instructors, other students etc. This Private Messaging System refreshes itself automatically every 60 seconds. A bar from Foxfire appears that states "Foxfire prevented this page from automatically reloading" and further down the bar there is an "Allow" button and then an "x" in the top right corner. Even though I push the "Allow" button and the bar disappears, it immediately reappears stating the same thing. I'm not sure if I'm getting my messages or not because I have corresponded with my instructor this way before and I don't recall ever seeing that pop up message from Foxfire before until lately. I only ask this because this is the second time he has missed our scheduled phone appointment. The first time he didn't call me he said he had sent messaged to all his students cancelling all his appointments but I did not get one and I figured he had just missed me. Now this is the second time I've received no message from him or any other message from him or any other instructors and I'm wondering if it's because of Foxfire preventing anything from getting through. My question is : How do I stop Foxfire from preventing that page of refreshing itself even after I allow to do so?

Did you disable that setting in Tools or Firefox > Options?

Stop Safari tabs from switching page

Is there a way to stop Safari from switching the active tab when certain pages load.
For example every-time gmail finishes loading a page it brings that tab to the forefront.
I noticed Saft can do this but there must be another way that is free or with the terminal.
Any ideas?

This is a feature of the site you are visiting, not Safari per se. Usually it's achieved via a JavaScript call, so if you disable that in the Safari preferences it should stop happening. Of course, that's not too useful for other sites that really need it enabled.
Don't forget to send feedback to the websites where this is occuring.
