Tabs on the top row

I think if Microsoft were to mimic Chrome, and place the tabs for Internet Explorer at the top, this would give IE a tremendous boost in usability.
I primarily use Chrome at work almost entirely because of this feature, but I use IE for certain functions (i.e. remote tunneling, cloud uploads).  Having tabs at the top saves space.  This greatly enhances the user experience.  I mean, what
is all that unused real-estate doing at the top of the IE window?

Hi,
you can send feedback or make feature requests to the IETeam at http://connect.microsoft.com/ie
here is a listing of requests for changes to tabbed browsing behavior.
https://connect.microsoft.com/IE/SearchResults.aspx?SearchQuery=tabs
from your question it sounds like you are referring to the Immersive version of the browser?

  • The top row of keys (fn keys) stuck on function only?

    I was working normally on my Mac (Air with OS X Yosemite) and suddenly the top row of keys (such as volume, brightness etc.) stopped working normally. It acts as a function key only and I can't adjust volume, brightness etc. from there, which is annoying. I have checked I don't have the "use all F1, etc. keys as standard function keys" on in settings and I just don't know what to do.
    Does anyone knows the solution?
    Thank you

    Hello there, VeganB.
    When one or more keys are not responding, the following Knowledge Base article offers up some great steps for troubleshooting your keyboard:
    One or more keys on the keyboard do not respond - Apple Support
    Some keys don't work as expected
    From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
    From the View menu, choose Speech.
    Click the Text to Speech tab.
    If "Speak selected text when the key is pressed" is enabled, the key or key combination set to speak text cannot be used for other purposes or used to type text--click Set Key and change it to a less-commonly used key combination (try to use modifier keys such as Shift, Command, Option, and Control). Or, disable the "Speak selected text when the key is pressed" option.
    Click the Accessibilty or Universal Access pane in System Preferences, then click the Keyboard tab.
    Make sure that Slow Keys is turned off. With Slow Keys on, you need to press a key for a longer period of time for it to be recognized.
    In the Accessibilty or Universal Access pane, click the Mouse tab, and make sure Mouse Keys is turned off. With Mouse Keys enabled, you cannot use the Numeric Keypad to enter numbers--instead the keypad moves the pointer (cursor). (There is an option to enable Mouse Keys with five presses of the Option key; you may want to turn that option off to avoid accidentally enabling it.) If Mouse Keys is enabled and you are using a keyboard with no numeric keypad or Num Lock function, see Unable to type while Mouse Keys is enabled in Mac OS X.
    If the function keys on the top row of the keyboard are not working as expected, see Mac OS X: How to change the behavior of function keys.
    If the issue persists, use Keyboard Viewer to help isolate the issue:
    Click the Language & Text pane (Mac OS X v10.6) or International pane (Mac OS X v10.5.8 or earlier) in System Preferences.
    Click the Input Sources tab (or Input Menu tab in Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier).
    Click the Keyboard & Character Viewer "On" checkbox to select it (click the Keyboard Viewer "On" checkbox in Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier).
    From the Input (flag) menu, choose Show Keyboard Viewer.
    If the keyboard is connected and detected by OS X, the keys you type will highlight in the Keyboard Viewer window. Open TextEdit (or any text application), and try to type something using the keys that were previously not responding to see if they highlight in Keyboard Viewer.
    Start from the Mac OS X Install Disc, choose Terminal from the Utilities menu and test the keys which were previously not working.  If the keys work while started from the Install disc, then the keyboard itself is working correctly.  Use How to troubleshoot a software issue to isolate the software issue that may be causing the keys to not respond.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

    Hello,
    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. <br>
    '''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.

  • 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!

    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.

  • When I try to sync my music on my iPhone 4 I have a tab at the top that says 'on this iPhone' The music in that tab is always on my phone but does not show in my itunes library.  How can I get it into my library?

    When I try to sync my music on my iPhone 4 I have a tab at the top that says 'on this iPhone'.  This is at the end of all the other tabs like info, ringtones, music etc. The music in that tab is always on my phone but does not show in my itunes library.  How can I get it into my library?  It doesn't sync either.

    The new iTunes has a somewhat different look from the previous version.  You can get the old look back if you prefer it by doing View > Show Sidebar in iTunes.  Or you can adapt to the new look.

  • HT5624 I was prompted to update to ios7 so I did as usual. But this update has made my ipad a piece of junk. I am unable to access Siri, I can't read the faint print particularly those tiny letters on the top row which show the visited websites, etc.

    I updated to iOS 7  last might after being prompted by Apple. This caused me to lose many useful features of my iPad2. First I find that Siri has disappeared. When I contacted Apple support, the guy who took my serial # and model # verified things on his end and said emphatically that I should have Siri, but could't help me find it. Another rep simply disconnected me after seeing that she was unable to help me with the problems. After wasting hours with these people and waiting several minutes for their promised supervisor to come online, I was again disconnected by them. My second major problem I wanted solved was the hard to read fine and faint print. I don't have good eyes and with iOS 7 on my iPad2 I am now unable to read the top row which has the list of websites in avery faint and fine print. I could read everything on my iPad until yesterday evening when I made the mistake of updating to iOS7. Till yesterday evening I loved my iPad but after that update to iOS 7 last night it is a piece of junk for me. Hope there is help somewhere out there to restore  Siri and other useful features of iOS 6 or get iOS6 back on my ipad So I can use it again. The chat with apple support has not helped at all as they themselves did not know that Problems like the ones I mentioned to them even existed with this iOS 7. I want my iOS 6 back!!!! CAN ANY ONE HELP !!!!! Also how can I reach anyone in Apple who is knowledgable and also has some authority to do something about it.

    Outside of the contact number for that you've already used I don't know another way of direct contact. Here are some things that they may or may not of had you try that might help you. If you will go to the settings app and pick general on the right-hand side you will see accessibility. Within that you can adjust a text size make the text bowl you can also increase the contrast. You can also adjust the brightness and control panel.
    As for Siri again in the settings app under general you should see Siri on the right-hand side with the switch to turn it on. If that is turned on and you're still having issues
    Try a Restart. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
     Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple. 
    Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

  • The top row of the keyboard of my iPhone 4S, in the password screen, is not responding to my fingers. How do I fix this?

    iPhone 4S
    IOS 7.1.2
    This problem occurred after a whole days use of the iPhone without any hitches. I first discovered the problem by unlocking the phone and then swiping to the password screen to find that the top row was not responding to my fingers at all. Because of this I could not type in my password to unlock my phone. I then tried to restore my phone but could not because it needed the phone to be unlocked. I then tried holding down the home and sleep button at the same time until it turned off and on again, but this did not fix the problem. I also tried switching on the Voice Over mode on and trying to unlock the phone through that but of course it didn't work. I have also left it overnight but I was still unable to unlock the phone the next day. Any suggestions on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated.

    *UPDATE*
    I have been able to use the Zoom function to zoom in and the keys on the top row no longer are in the non-responsive strip of area.

  • How do I get the search here tab off the top of my screen?

    All of the sudden I have a new tab at the top of my Firefox screen for searching. It says "search here" with a colorful little pinwheel. There is no where I can find to take this whole thing off. I've tried uninstalling it on my computer, but it still shows up. I want to have it off completely!

    See image below. If that is the item, follow these instructions.
    Exit from Firefox, then try locating and removing from your installed programs in Windows Control Panel (see article below for instructions to get there depending on your version of Windows). Look for and remove '''''"Default Tab (version #)"'''''

  • Only the top row of buttons works on the aluminun wireless keyboard

    After returning my first wireless keyboard for not pairing with my iMac (which has all the right tech specs) I exchanged it for a new one. Initially, I was able to type letters and numbers only and many of the keys were not doing the task they were supposed to--the F12 keys ejected CDs and the eject button did nothing. I went to the Apple icon and downloaded all of the new updates that showed up, restarted my computer and then suddenly, the eject button worked! But, when I tried to type letters and numbers, nothing happened. My computer recognizes it and the top row of buttons works just fine.

    the same has happend to me, it's a new wireless keyboard, and from the moment i paired them only the to row (f1,f2....eject) buttons are working.
    what am i to do

  • Additional tabs will not open when clicking the "+" tab at the top of the screen or by clicking "file + new tab"

    I've been using Firefox for several years and just ran across a problem within the past two weeks. I usually have several tabs open at the same time while browsing the Internet. Suddenly, when I tried to open a new tab by clicking on the "+" tab at the top right of the screen, a new tab would not open. Then I tried clicking on "file + new tab" and a new tab still won't open. If I click on a link within an email, then a new tab will open, but I cannot choose to open a new tab. Please help! Thanks! :)

    In addition to the above:
    Your above posted system details show multiple Java Console extensions.
    You can uninstall and remove Java Console extensions, you do not need them to run Java applets.

  • Since updating last time Firefox will not open new tabs unless I right click on a link. It won't open them via file or the tab at the top of the brwoser. Anyone know how to fix this?

    Since updating last time Firefox will not open new tabs unless I right click on a link. It won't open them via file or the tab at the top of the brwoser or usinf ctrl + t. Anyone know how to fix this?

    I can press ctrl for a new tab but otherwise a new tab does not open. I actually need help regarding this new Synch which apparently will be in Firefox automatically in an upcoming version so I am asking how that will synch with people who use LastPass-of course because I use this very successfully and really am not eager to change the set up that I have in place at this time.
    I have read through endless FAQ trying to find anyone else who has this question or concern but have found nothing. Can you please tell me how that service will get along with LastPass which does basically the same thing as Synch-it is probably spelled wrong as it looks wrong to me but if I click back to where this issue began, I will lose all of this question so please respond for the upcoming service synch.

  • My slideshow doesn't show the pictures anymore - I can see them in the top row but they are not displayed in slideshow

    I created a slideshow and when I went back to look it plays the music but not the pictures - I can see them in the top row but they don't show up even if I click on them - music still plays!

    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    are you able to view the photos in full size in the library?
    what fixes have you tried?
    where is your library located?
    did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    what type of Mac?
    how much free space on your boot drive?

  • Why does my Firefox look like the ollder versions? - your examples show a new look with the orange tab in the top left hand corner

    The examples shown for Firefox 4 and above show a browser with the orange Firefox tab on the top left corner.
    In my case, the browser continues to look - and operate like the older versions.

    Go to View (or just right-click on any empty space of Firefox's panels - for example, near the tabs) and turn off the Main Menu Panel. You'll see what you're looking for.

    Thanks so much! I am backing up the entire computer now with an external hard drive - this should be fine right? And surely if I am backing up the whole computer these projects/videos will be backed up too? I wasn't sure how to do this any other way and I am clearly not great with tech issues. Once this is done and I am sure my projects/videos are safe I will do the delete and reinstall bit. Thanks for taking the time to help
