that I could have or I should have categories such as all, favorites, etc...

Suggestion for the PlayBook Team

There have been suggestions made and issues identified with the PlayBook on this and other forums. Many of these are understandable with the initial release of a totally new product, new OS, and very limited development time.
My issue is more fundamental: What is the PlayBook supposed to be?
   1) Business Tool?
   2) Entertainment Device?
   3) Smartphone Extension/Enhancement?
It appears that PlayBook is trying to be "all of the above, to all people, and master of none"
The PlayBook was to be my business tool. Unfortunately it currently fails to meet my minimum business requirements. The functionality for the two other uses seems to be limited as well.
It would be helpful if the PlayBook Team conveyed the primary purpose of the PlayBook; and, concentrated development in that direction. This would provide a realistic expectations as to the future use of my PlayBook.

What is wrong with all of the above?
What's the focus of the iPad, Xoom and Tab?
I do believe you'll see it fulfill all three as apps develop and time passes. Obviously right now it's not serving your needs.

Is there a way to open new tabs in the home page or some other link?

When I open a new tab using the "+" symbol I get a blank page. I would like new tabs to open in my home page, or, if possible, a different page, like my favorite web browser, which is what I usually want when I open a new tab.
Can this be done? I can't find the right preference for it, assuming that's the right place for such an option.

Nothing beats about:blank in my opinion for clarity and for tab history.
Here is an extension that does what you asked for, it is VERY large for what you get out it (which to me, what I would get out of it is confusion).
'''NewTabURL''' :: Add-ons for Firefox (49.2 KB)
:Select default URL when new tabs are opened: "Blank page", "Home page", ""Current page" or a user defined URL.

Every time I launch Firefox 4 it opens 3 or 4 blank windows, no longer opens the tabs from the previous session and does not show my bookmarks sidebar.

I have to manually close the extra windows and restore the tabs from the previous session, and reopen the sidebar. In disgust I uninstalled Firefox 4 and reinstalled 3.6. Everything works fine in 3.6. Looks to me like Firefox 4 has many major bugs and is not yet ready for prime time. I'll stay with 3.6 for now.

This can be a problem with the files [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
Delete [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
* Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well. 
You will have to redo App Tabs and Tab Groups after deleting sessionstore.js.

You don't need to upgrade your software. But if you're struggling with Spry, IMO you should cut your losses and switch to something better for the longrun.
If you have a budget to work with, I highly recommend Project Seven's Pop-Menu Magic 3. It's easy to use in DW CS4, 5, 6 or CC. More importantly, it's bullet proof and works in all devices.

If you don't have a budget to work with, you can roll your own menus with jQuery plugins. A bit more effort on your part, but they perform better than Spry.

Backing Up and Restoring the PlayBook

Ok, I've been playing around with Backing Up, Wiping, then Restoring the PlayBook and things don't seem to be functioning as smoothly as I would assume they should. My primary concern is that the data from the Contacts and Calendar programs are not getting restored and the setup information for any Email Accounts is also lost. The data from two third party Apps: Groovy Notes and The Vault is being restored no problem.
ADDED NOTE: The Stock Wallpapers and HD Video Demo have also gone missing.
THE PARTICULARS:
- On a Windows 7 Pro box running BlackBerry Desktop 7.1
- 64 GB Wifi PlayBook running OS 2.0.1.668
- Options set to FULL BACKUP (nothing else)
- using a USB cable and connection
Other behavior that might, or might not be related:
- I did a switch device from 64 GB Wifi to 4G LTE model and the same data was missing
- the BB Desktop 7.1 software can't seem to accommodate more then one PlayBook at a time, meaning that if I Sync or backup one tablet, then attaching the other tablet via the USB cable will cause the device listing of the previous tablet to disappear. It's like it won't allow me to have more then one tablet as a listed device.
Thanks, Rob

"nothing changed" as in it didn't restore the deleted entries?
What I'm thinking is that the desktop software is designed more for BB phones and that there is such a difference in the Contacts and Calendar apps from the phone to the PlayBook (the PlayBooks apps being much more complex and interconnected) that the Desktop isn't equipped to properly backup the PlayBook, so it doesn't. If this is the case, then they should:
1) let people know, because many may think they have a nice safe backup of what could potentially be a very large and valuable chunk of data, when they actually don't.
2) Get working on an update of their Desktop software that properly handles the PlayBook - which they probably are, I would hope.
But all of this is just conjecture on my part, since nobody has responded to my query yet, other then you that is.

New Window from "FILE- NEW-WINDOW" duplicates all the currently open tabs in the new window. I want new window with just the "Home" tab please?

Running Firefox 3.6.13 on 64Bit Win7.
I like to group tabs on a topic in a window, and when the tabs get to be too many, or a new topic, I do FILE->NEW-WINDOW and expect a new window with just one default (Home) tab. Instead I get a new window with ALL the tabs of the first window.
I have checked all the Options I could find. Nothing helped. I CAN make a new Window with just one tab if I right-click a link and say "Open in NEW Window".

A new window should only open with the home page(s). 
If you see differently then you need to check your extensions.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

I want my "Tabs" on the bottom and I want my icons with "text". How do I do this with the new 29.0.1 version?

I want my modify the 29.0.1 version of Firefox to be more like it was i.e. tabs on bottom, text for the icons, and to be able to move the address bar to a more convenient place.

Changing to Classic still gives no option to put tabs on bottom even thru config toggling to false in 'browser.tabs.onTop' over the years Firefox keeps changing the tabs position and I have to keep putting it back and now they leave the option out to change the Tabs to the bottom...some people think what they like is best and then will not provide you with any freedom of choice..please fix this problem Firefox!!

Firefox give me a blank white screen when i open it and when i type in an address in the search bar it just say new tab on the top left hand corner and its cont. to be a blank white page. IDK?

k when i double click on the fire fox short cut on my desk top or the tab under the start button, my firefox gives me a blank white screen with the phase " new tab" on the top left hand corner as if u clicked for another window. Even though its the 1st window that opens. when i type a website in the search bar it regristers but it just goes to the blank white screen w the new tab phase. i tried to open some of my bookmark sites and still the same thing.. a blank all white page. ive tried re-download the fire fox 6.0 then i deleted my current firefix then re-downloaded it again.. still nothing :(. im currently usaing my interner explore to write this and search the net.

Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. 
'''Note''': ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions and some Preferences.''
*Open websites will not be saved in Firefox versions lower than 25.
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

I need to open up the same web site in two separate tabs. Since I upgraded to Firefox 6 when I try to open the web page in a new tab from the list in the drop down in the address window it only gives be the option to switch to the tab already have open.

When I go the drop down from the address window, rather than showing the URL of the website I want open in a second tab it says "Switch to tab." But I don't want to switch to the tab - I want to open a second tab on the same URL. If I want to open it a second time I have to manually key in the address. Is there some way to turn this off so I can open up the second tab using the same address from the drop down? I have always been able to do this with previous versions of Firefox.

How to Delete file i.e. videos directly from the Playbook

I know that I can transfer files to the playbook, but How do I delete flies such as videos from the playbook?

To delete a a video open the videos app and swipe down. Click on the pencil for "Edit". Select the videos you want to delete and then click on the delete icon. Pictures works the same way.

HT204266 I am trying to connect a blackberry playbook to the Mac. I have OS 10.5.1 and it says I need OS 10.6. Is that a free update or do I have to purchase a new OS? I just want to load music on to the playbook.

Trying to connect a blackberry playbook to the Mac. It says I need OS6. Is that a free update or do I have to buy a whole new operating system? Just want to download some music to the playbook. Also, is it possible to use a iTunes card directly to the playbook and bypass the Mac? Thanks for any info you can provide.

The Snow Leopard 10.6 DVD should still be available from Apple for $20. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775 to purchase it. It may still be in the Legacy Products list. The App Store which is required to download 10.7 or 10.8 is part of the 10.6.6 update.
If they no longer have any in stock you will have to buy it from eBay or Apple resellers that still have stock. But you will have to pay a premium since the DVDs are no longer being made. Snow Leopard DVDs are already up to $100 on Amazon.

Somtimes Firefox loads a blank page; the Tab says "New Tab" and the URL is always "about:blank". What's up with that?

Using Dogpile, I search and a list of URLs comes up. I select and click on one and Firefox opens a new tab. It responds promptly with a blank screen. The Tab says "New Tab" and the URL says "about:blank". The last one came up slowly in IE and turned out to be nothing more than a large pdf. Can you help me figure out what is happening and how to fix it, please? It is happening far too often. Running the virus, etc. software has not stopped this problem. Thank you very much for your help! Hutchy

You can try basic steps like these in case of issues with web pages:
Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
*Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
*Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
*Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
Clear the cache and only cookies from websites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

How do i delete the tab at the top of my website? (i.web 1.1.2)

this thread was archived, but never resolved, im continuing the conversation, thank you!
ekc111
i have created my pages but each one of them has a tab along the top that i would like to delete. (it leftover from the gazzette template i started with.) is it possible for me to delete it, or at least change its color to the same as my background color? thanks!

Hey there, from within iWeb simpl click on the page(s) one at a time (in the left column). Then click the inspector button (bottom right) to open the inspector menus. At the top of the inspector there are 9 icons. The second one from the left is what you need.
When you click that you will see to options. 1. "INCLUDE PAGE IN NAVIGATION MENU" and 2. "DISPLAY NAVIGATION MENU" If you uncheck the "DISPLAY NAVIGATION MENU" it will be removed from the current page. Then continue the process for your other pages as well. Hope this helps and Merry Christmas

You mentioned making the text the same as the background...did you try that yet? I mis-understood your first question so my bad. What I have done with templates that dont let you delete the title is to shrink the font to 1 and match the text with the background color like you spoke of.

i think you did understand it correctly originally. the text box has no words in it, i just deleted them, so a blank text box is still there and can not be deleted. i am not sure if that is why the tab is still there. the tab runs along the top of the website. if you don't know what i mean, maybe i could send you a page to look at? thanks a lot for your help.

I took a look at the gazette template and if I understand what you are talking about, I think you have changed the page background to another color or another image and the top still has the beige with the 2 little flower scroll. And that is what you want to remove. If I am correct in my assumption that is a lot more involved as you would have to find the graphic in the package and modify it.
can you give a few more details or post your site may be someone also more knoledgeable will look at it.

Go ahead and send me a link or picture of it...if you haven't solved the issues already. Please include the template that you are using. I will create it myself and see if I can solve it.

mireille - you are right, i changed the background color to black and the tab remained beige. is there any way i can fix it?

laderamacguy took a look at it and added a black shape over the tab. he suggested i use a different template next time, such as the black template.
