TS3274 I have multiple safari windows open, how do I close them 1 at a time?

Does anyone no how to accomplish closing safarie window 1 at a time or even all at once?

If you have iOS 5+ with the tabbed browsing then you can close the 'active' tab by tapping the 'x' on the left of the tab (you can't close the last tab).
If you have iOS 4 or below then tap the icon of the two squares to open the thumbnail/page view and you can close them from there

If I have multiple browser windows open (not tabs, windows) and I close 1 of them, why do ALL browser windows close?

If I have multiple browser windows open (not tabs, windows) and I close 1 of them, why do ALL browser windows close?

How are you closing the window?
Are you using the File menu or the close X on the title bar?
Use Alt + F to open the File menu with the Close Tab entry visible (doesn't work with the mouse).

When I have multiple browser windows open - but in the "minimized" mode - and I want to open up one of them for viewing, ALL of the windows automatically open as well. How do I prevent this annoying function. I cannot find it anywhere in the options.

This does not appear to be a system issue, but rather a functional aspect of the browser windows. E.g., if I have 7 browser windows open to different sites... and all are Minimized, and I decide to open one to study, THEY ALL POP OPEN automatically. I am using Firefox v3.6.8 on Windows 7. This is an annoying behavior of the browser, and I am sure it can be somehow "turned off" but cannot determine how to do that. I have looked through all options. I am not a techie, but have reasonable proficiency with software apps.

This can happen if you drag a tab slightly down in the browser window while clicking.
Firefox has a feature called tear-off tabs
You can detach a tab from the current window and open it in a new window by dragging a tab in the browser window.
You can also do this via the right-click context menu of a tab: Move to New Window
You can drag that tab back to the tab bar in the original window to undo that detaching.

How to have new Safari windows open in full screen?

Hello,
I am wondering if it is possible to have new Safari windows take up the full screen. For example, if I click on a link that opens a new window, I would like that new window to take on the fully maximized setting of the window it came from. So even if the website code says the window has to be 50% screen real estate, I would like to be 100% every time automatically.
Thanks.

Welcome to the forums!
Yet another great thing that Glims can do!
If you want to fix your Google search to a specific Google location, I recommend that you download and install the free plug-in Glims:
http://www.machangout.com/
which not only does that but much more equally useful stuff! (Such as automatically deleting Flash cookies, enabling Safari to run full-screen, and more.)
(It adds items to Safari Preferences).
Not only does it already list a number of search engines and regions, but you can also add any other search engine not already listed in Glims by using the method described here:
http://www.machangout.com/tutorials/addsearchengine
Just enter the name you give the search engine in the name field, and the URL for it in the Query URL field.
When you have it, the setting is in Glims Preferences/General

How do you have 2 Safari windows open and show both pages simultaneously on the monitor

How do you keep open 2 Safari windows and show both pages on monitor?

While in Safari with your first window open go to the File menu and select New Window. That will open the second window on which you can navigate to your second web page. Resize both windows to fit on your display.

In 4.0.1, if I have multiple firefox windows open, when I try to close one window, it closes all. Why can't I close just one window at a time?

I open multiple Firefox windows so that I can quickly Alt+Tab between windows instead of using my mouse to point to tabs. When I close one of my Firefox windows, the browser closes all my windows. What happen to the "Close" feature under the File tab? Why don't I have the option to close only one window at a time?

I don't understand what happened above, but ericn1, wasn't your problem that you tried to close one browser window using the red X, and ALL of them closed? How did any of the above help you solve your problem? jscher2000 gave you alternate methods of closing windows but said that closing a window with the red X "should" work. It doesn't work, because it is closing ALL your windows, not just the one you are clicking on. I am now having the same problem. with Firefox.
Understand I do not have the problem with any other program. In other words, I can open multiple windows in Paint Shop Pro, IE, Notepad, etc. and close one with the red X and all others remain open. It ONLY happens when using the Firefox browser.
The red X should close only the window that you are in when you click on it.
NOW, before someone suggests tabs, I don't like them and don't use them. My choice. Before someone says my browser is out-of-date, (3.6.13) I am using it because it was the last version that worked reliably on my computers, both at home (Windows 7 Professional) and my office (Windows XP Professional).
When I updated to the last Firefox browser, both computers started seizing up (nothing worked and had to reboot using power button) Removing that version of Firefox and going back to this version solved that problem. Fact remains, version has little to do with this problem. I've seen other posts around the net about this with different (newer) versions of Firefox.
So . . . does anyone have a solution to this that doesn't involve using keystrokes or hot keys to close windows instead of the red X that should work properly?

HT204053 I have multiple apple id's - how do I find them all?

I have multiple apple ids. I can not remember the security questions any more and now I can not access my email using my old email address. I now get a "Your account has been locked" message - very annoying!

To find all your AppleIDs log into
My Apple ID https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
There use the link Find your Apple ID in the lower right of the window.
On the same page you can use the "Reset your Password" link to manage your Apple ID and require that your security questions will be reset. You will receive an email notification with instructions how to proceed.

Hello kingsley2012,
It sounds like the Facebook app on your iPad is stuck on a specific page. I recommend following the steps in the article below for an issue like this (you can skip step 3 since it is not related to this issue):

If I have several tabs/windows open and I go to a new page, it hijack several of my current windows with that same URL. How to stop?

I frequently have a couple of windows with several tabs in each window open. For example, I always have a small window open in the corner of my screen with a time tracking program set up. Sometimes when I open a new tab or window and go to a URL (not thru a search engine, but just directly), it will "hijack" one or more of my other tabs/windows and plug in that same URL, losing whatever I had previously open. I've checked through all the prefs and I don't see why or how this problem is happening. What gives? I'm on an iMac using OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 using Firefox 34.0.5. HELP!

Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:

Having multiple query windows open at once.

I wasn't sure how to phrase it so after some digging I'm resorting to asking on here.
I've been working out of the 'Joes2Pros' series and I work within SMMS with SQL standard installed locally for playing.
Most of the time I like to have multiple query windows open to save queries to reference later just for examples.
My question is that is there a way to ensure a query window is not using any databases so that when I run the lab setup scripts for Joes2Pros I don't encounter any errors without having to close my other query windows?
Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

You can accomplish this multiple ways:
1. Have your windows open with the database context set to master (select master DB in the dropdown on the toolbar)
2. "USE master; go" statement as the first line in all your query windows
3. Before you run your setup scripts, issue a kill command to terminate all other query window sessions (this will still keep the query windows open but they won't be connected to any database)

I'm having trouble keeping up with this topic ... every time I've finished a post, there's three or four new replies showing up and the troubleshoot has moved on.
The toolbars can be (silently) installed by a number of different packages/websites, although I fear I'm well behind the times on what packages/websites are most commonly installing them for folks nowadays. There's a lot of variations about, as it's a platform rather than a specific application:

I'll defer to Carolyn on the state-of-the-art when it comes to removing the toolbars.

When I have the downloads window open and I close the browser window, how can I get the browser to open the homepage the next time I start it while the download window is still open?

When I have the downloads window open and I close the browser window, the next time I reopen the browser while the downloads are still going, it returns me to the last page I was on. All previous versions of Firefox would return me to my homepage which I would prefer. Please let me know if this is possible.

When you re-open Firefox and choose Restore Session, by default it picks up your most-recently-open window, and the other windows should then show up in Recently Closed Windows.
The Firefox add-on Session Manager lets you manage how many closed windows and closed tabs are saved, in case it's not enough.

I Need to have many internet windows open at once

I'm used to PC based work where I can have several internet windows open at once. I can't seem to do this on the iMac. I have downloaded Firefox, so I can use Firefox and Safari at the same time, but I would like to have at least 6 internet windows open at once so I may toggle between screens. How can I do this.
I know I can have multiple tabs open in firefox, but this is no help, as selecting a tab and moving back and forth between tabs is pretty cumbersome.
Thanks in advance for your help!

I always have many tabs open in FF, and rely on it restoring them each time I close/open it again. Sometimes I'll have a second window open and will close the main window first, losing a record of tabs I had open. Is there a way around this?

Seems like when FF restores a session, it restores the session of the last window open. If you use tabs as a way of keeping a list of things to do or look at, you have to be careful if you have a second window open to close the second window before your main one, or you will lose your list. I'm absent minded though and do this all the time. The only way to prevent this is bookmark all my tabs once a day, but I tend to forget to do even that. Any workaround for this?
