The tab bar in Safari does not update automatically

Hello,
I have a strange problem with Safari full screen mode and the tab bar always displayed, it does "not update" alone. In fact when I, for example, two tabs and I created a third (by clicking a link) it does not appear immediately. I have to either click on the tab bar and pretend to move one, either click the "Naviagtion tabs" for bar tabs emtte update.
A little heavy, huh?
All my software are up to date and even reinstalled recently, but the problem is still present.
OS X Lion Mountain / / Safari 6.0.2
Regards

I solved the problem by uninstalling Glims.

What is the function of show tab bar in safari setting?

this tool is in setting > safari > show tab bar on/off
any one know how it work

Hey Samooo205,
I see that you have some questions about the tab bar in Safari. Some information about this can be found in the following article:
Safari 7 (Mavericks): Customize the Safari window
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH17153
If you need help visually identifying the tab bar, you can find that information here:
Safari 8 (Yosemite): View webpages in tabs
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH19261
As it said in the first article, the tab bar option that you are wondering about only affects the behavior of the tab bar when there is only one tab open. If there are multiple tabs open, the tab bar will be shown, regardless of this setting. Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
Cheers,
Braden

(Chrome Like) Auto-Hide Tab bar in Safari Full Screen mode

Is there a plugin or some other way to auto hide the tab bar in Safari fullscreen mode like the way Chrome does?
This is the only thing stopping me from using Safari, it's way smoother than Chrome and feels much more native to Lion, but the fact the tab bar just keeps hanging there is annoying.
I tried the Cmd+I method mentioned in the community, but it only works when you're only opening one tab, if you open several tabs, the tab bar will show up again. It also comes back up once you exit Full Screen mode.
Thanks for your help !

Hello myzzzl, this is normal behavior in full screen mode, you can set the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.fullscreen.autohide browser.fullscreen.autohide] in about:config to False, to change that, but if you do that tabs and location bar is enabled in full screen mode.
wait if another contributor/helper give you a code which I don't know.
thank you

All of a sudden I can no longer open a new tab using either the icon on the tab bar, the keyboard short cut or the File menu option. I can open a new tab ONLY by clicking on a bookmark or link.

The "+" to add a new tab is missing from my tabs in Firefox 4. How do I restore that "+" so I can quickly add a tab to the tab bar?

The "+" to add a new tab has disappeared after installing Firefox 4.0. How do I restore it? I am talking about the tab bar at the top of the screen

Restore your default toolbar by going to Customize - Restore Default Set. I just found it out myself.

Why is it that when I set the preference to always show the tab bar, it refuses to stay checked after I quit Firefox and restart it?

Using Mac OSX10.6.7 and FF 4.0.1, I'm having a problem with the preference to always show the tab bar. I want it to always show. I check this in the Preferences under the "tab" window, and everything is fine until I quit FF and when I restart FF the tab bar is gone again. I go into preferences, and that option is now unchecked. How can I fix this so that my preference is saved?

That hasn't helped the last ten times I tried. I posted before. I deleted the preferences file, I tried changing the preferences file, I went into about:config and changed the autoHide preference there. No dice. Firefox is not saving my preference for that one thing.

How do I change the color of the area next to the Tab Bar

I've got Firefox 8.0, and ever since they went to the new layout I've had problems with the area at the right of the Tab Bar. When FF is maximized, the buttons up there ( > + ▼ X ) are black on a dark blue background, and I almost can't see them - so I never use it maximized.
How do I change the color, maybe back to the colors it uses when not maximized?

I got used to the tabs at the top -- and kinda prefer that look, but I'll try this for a while.
Is there any way to change the color of either the buttons or the background?
Thanks.

How do I hide the menu bar on Safari when watching videos on full screen mode?

Hey guys,
I have a mid 2010 macbook pro (Snow Leopard OS X 10.6.8) which I have recently restored from time machine after installing a new hard drive.
However, now when I watch flash videos on putlocker or hulu etc the menu bar on safari on the top left of the screen and the icons on the top right (airport, battery, date/time etc) does not disappear as it used to.
When I am on youtube I have a similar problem but this time the video only occupies the window so tabs (and everything above) in safari and my dock still appear. I know this may be a youtube related query, but if anyone knows how to change this I would appreciate any guidance.
This is my first post so sorry if this in the wrong forum (feel free to move it) or if my description is unclear, I can provide further information if needed.
Many thanks!
Tom

You're welcome and only on my first cup of coffee

There are no more arrows on the tab bar so if you have many tabs open you cannot navigate through them anymore what happened to that?

I always have 30+ tabs open. Used to be there were arrows on either side of the tab bar and you could navigate to the start or the end of your tabs. Now those arrows are missing and if you have a lot of tabs open you cannot navigate, you must close a tab in order to see other ones. Or click that group tab button thing to see which tabs you have open which is stupid. Is just mine faulty? or did this function just go away. Makes no sense to not be able to scroll through and see all the opened tabs.

hello, can you try to replicate this behaviour when you launch firefox in safe mode once? if not, maybe an addon is interfering here...

Do you mean the new tab (+) button?
Open the Customize window and set which toolbar items to display.
*"3-bar" Firefox menu button > Customize
*if missing items are in the Customize palette then drag them back from the Customize window on the toolbar
*if you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the Customize palette then click the "Restore Defaults" button to restore the default toolbar setup

Is there a way to hide the tab bar on my I Pad 2 in IOS 5?

Anyone know of a way to hide the tab bar in an I Pad 2 using OS5? It wasn't there on the previous operating system.

I can only assume that you are talking about Safari and the answer is no. Safari now uses tabs. If you want a tab free browser, download iCab. You can use tabs or you also have the old Safari way of browsing open web pages at your disposal. Another rally nice feature is that you can swipe from one open web page to another open web page. It also has a ton of other features that Safari does not have.

How to unhide Tab bar in Safari

i am using the Safari Browser - Version 6.0.3 (8536.28.10), recently tab bar is not showing. Can any one help me to unhide the tab bar. When i checked view->Hide Tab Bar, also inactive. Looking help to unhide the tab bar. Thanks in advance

I suggest using Apple menu - Software Update (after backing up your computer) to get a newer Safari & OS version.
The tab bar is hidden by default unless there's more than one tab open - you can alter that with the following Terminal command... do it after quitting Safari.
defaults write -app Safari AlwaysShowTabBar -bool YES

F.F will not set tabs in the tab bar, always one tab in the L/H corner. one moment it will then it wont. OS is Win 7 Ult

Have set the tabs under options clicking the first 3 items. I was getting the tab bar to work with these settings but suddenly now every new page is under one tab. FF seems to be very unstable under Win 7 Ult. Its OK under Win XP sp3 Home.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

As a solution for your problem (now I understand it), you can:
- middle click links to open them in new tabs;
- right click links and select "Open Link in New Tab" to open them in new tabs;
- open a new tab prior to opening a new link or doing a search or typing something new in the location bar
- press ALT+ENTER instead of ENTER when you type something in the location bar or search bar to open the result in a new tab
- go into Tools > Options > Tabs to configure Firefox to open new links wherever you like.
Hopefully this is the answer you're looking for.

How do I restore the "close tab" button to the END of the tab bar, WITHOUT USING AN ADDON

Up until FF31, I used to have the following setting configured which moved the little 'X' button that closed tabs off of the tabs themselvs and onto the far right of the tab bar.
browser.tabs.closeButtons; User Set; Integer; 3
No, this no longer works. It has still moved the close buttons back to the tab buttons. Until I can figure out how to fix this, I will be moving back to a previous version. I can't for the life of me see why this feature was removed, other than Mozilla's seemingly arrogant insistence that it knows what people want better than they do.
I was since told by someone that I can use an addon to fix it, yet the problem is THEY DO NOT WORK. The addons that supposedly solve this all have intermittent failures where they don't load correctly, leave random dead tabs open, and in one case it even seemed to open new tabs when I tried to close one.
It's absolutely inexcusable that the dev team is so arrogant to take away a feature that has fundamentally no impact on the rest of the browser, other than, as I said before, they THINK they know what we want better than we do. It's no small wonder that FF is losing market share. The only thing keeping me on board was really this function, as I prefer this layout, and if it's gone, I see no reason to stick with FF over others.

unfortunately it is not possible to restore the close button to have only one (customizable) close button on the Tab bar without using an extension.
The extension is necessary because you need to create a new toolbar button and bind the proper code to it to make the button act as a tab close button (command: BrowserCloseTabOrWindow()).
