What happened to the "save tabs and close" feature? I loved that!

Firefox v3.x gave me the option to close with several tabs open and save them data so it would reopen to those same tabs. I can't find a way to ask FF4 to do the same thing. :-(

Firefox now always stores the old session, and you can access it by going to the History menu and selecting "Restore Previous Session"
If you want Firefox to display the message to save the session, it can be turned back on by changing some preferences.
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
# Locate the preference '''browser.tabs.warnOnClose''', if its value is set to '''false''', double-click on it to change its value to '''true'''
# Repeat this for these 3 preferences '''browser.warnOnQuit''', '''browser.warnOnRestart''' and '''browser.showQuitWarning'''
If you always open the last set of tabs, an alternative approach is this:
# Click the orange Firefox button, then select options to open the options window
# Go to the General panel
# Change the setting "When Firefox starts" to "Show my windows and tabs from last time"

In the new Firefox 4, what happned to the save tabs and quit feature, is there a way i can still use this function?

''Duplicate post, continue here - [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/815571]''
I just downloaded Firefox 4 and i had a problem about my Norton spy-ware toolbar not being compatible, but anyway the most important thing that makes me pick Firefox over any other web browser is that i am able to save tabs and then exit. I think this was the greatest things because i could leave turn my laptop off and save power and when i got back i cold resume what i as doing. My question is just will you ever have this save tabs and exit function again or at least a way people would turn the function on by will.

In prior versions of Firefox, I could open a list of closed tabs, but I can't find the button now.

I enjoy running both versions of Numbers (Numbers 2 and Numbers 3) at the same time. They each have strengths and weaknesses.
Numbers 3 did not replace your Numbers 2 (Numbers '09). Look in a folder called iWork '09 inside your Applications folder. And enjoy.

What happened to the Artwork tab in my movie file?

What happened to the Artwork tab in the Get Info section of my movie file? Does anyone know how to get it back?

One possibility is that there are no files in the Downloads, or that the Safari list has been cleared. What happens if you download something - does the tab appear?
Also, in the View menu there is a command "Show Downloads" you might try.

What happened to the security symbol, an icon showing a lock, that indicated that you are on a secure connection to a website?

What happened to the security symbol, an icon showing a lock, that indicated that you are on a secure connection to a website?
It was present on the last version of Firefox but is not seen on the latest, version 4.0.
How does one now know that he is using an encrypted transmission?

The padlock has been replaced by the site identity button, for details on using it see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Site+Identity+Button

TS2972 I just updated all of our computers to itunes 11 and now when we try to use our home sharing, we can't import songs. What happened to the easily located "import song" feature? I wish now that I wouldn't have updated to the new itunes 11.

I recently updated all of the computers in the house to itunes 11. Now when we try to import songs from homesharing, we are unable to. What happened to the conveniently located "import song" button on the old version of itunes. Please help an old mother out please!

diesel vdub, i use 11.1.1
solved the issue today. first sync with itunes, so all the stiff you bought on the mobile will be backuped.
1. uncheck sync music in itunes and sync. all the music will be erased from mobile device
2. check music player on the mobile device. just the unwanted songs will still be there
3. go on the iphone to settings, general, usage, music player. there is just a few mb from the remaining unwanted songs. swipeleft and erase the content. switch iphone off and on again
4. repeat step 2. there will be no data. otherwise repeat step 3
5. check sync music in itunes and sync. all the music will be back again but not the unwanted songs.

What happened to the youtube app and why does my ipod keep crashing?

I updated my ipod touch 4g to iOS 6.0 and what happened to the youtube app? And why does my ipod keep on crashing when ever I go to the app store? Now i can never buy anything!!! or watch youtube videos and I'm always on youtube!!!!!!!!

As has been very well publicized in the news and all over the internet and forums, youtube is not part of ios 6. Google it.
You can get the app from the app store if you like.
Have you tried the basics from the manual to stop the crashing?
Restart, reset, restore.

What happened with the "save and quit" option when closing multiple tabs?!

I loved this little function and now it is gone?! If there is no way to get it back I will either go back to mozilla 3.6 or turn to other browsers.... Very dissapointed!

Firefox 4 automatically saves your session when you close Firefox, but it doesn't automatically restore that session the next you open Firefox. You can use '''Restore Previous Session''' on the about:home page or in the History menu item.
To make Firefox 4 work like Firefox 3.6 in that regard: 
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
# Locate the preference '''browser.tabs.warnOnClose''', if its value is set to '''false''', double-click on it to change its value to '''true'''
# You can do that for these 3 preferences,too: '''browser.warnOnQuit''', '''browser.warnOnRestart''', '''browser.showQuitWarning'''

What happened to the edit tab that used to display at the top allowing me to copy and paste website addresses sent to me in e-mails?

There used to be a display at the top of the page that had tabs for edit and other items that are no longer there with FF4. Am I missing something? I have checked the drop-down at the upper left but can find no way to copy/cut and paste while in e-mail mode.

You can find the Edit menu and the associated icons in the drop down list if you click the orange Firefox button.

Has version 4 eliminated the save tabs and quit when closing the browser?

I had the beta version of firefox 4, but now that i got the latest version 4.0, I no longer receive the option of saving my open tabs when I close the browser window. I am only warned that I am going to close them or I can cancel. I there any way I can save the open tabs?

You can set the warn prefs on the about:config page to true via the right-click context menu or toggle with a double left-click.
* browser.showQuitWarning, see http://blog.zpao.com/post/3174360617/about-that-quit-dialog
* browser.tabs.warnOnClose, see http://kb.mozillazine.org/About%3Aconfig_entries
* browser.warnOnQuit , see http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.warnOnQuit
* browser.warnOnRestart , see http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.warnOnRestart
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. 
You can use Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session to get back the previous session.
There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default about:home Home page.
Another possibility is to use:
*Tools > Options > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts": "Show my windows and tabs from last time"

What happened to the little tab with the Plus sign to create an empty tab?

I recently upgraded from v3.6 through several versions to v8.01 of Firefox. There used to be a small tab with a plus sign at the end of the tab bar that allowed me to create a new empty tab. It seems to have disappeared somewhere beyond v4.0
What happened to it and how do I get it back? Yes I know I can turn on the toolbar button for a new tab, but having it at the end of the tab bar is more natural to use.

You can find the New Tab button showing as a '+' on the Tab bar. 
You can open the Customize window and drag the New Tab button that shows as a plus sign (+) from the Tab bar on another toolbar and it will become a regular toolbar button like the New Tab button that you have in Firefox 3 versions. 
If you can't find the New Tab button then click the "Restore Default Set" button in the Customize window. 
If you want the New Tab button at the far right end of the Tab bar then place a flexible space to the left of it.

What happened to the great tabs?

Can I have Safari 4 Beta back please? I just got an automatic update the the final release of Safari 4 and the fantastic tabs selector is gone. When I was using the beta version the tabs were along the top of the screen and there was always a little '+' up in the corner to open new tabs with. Now there is no '+' button, so I have to move my finger off the mouse and do a 2 key combo to open a new tab or click through the File menu to open a new tab and then when a new tab comes up it pushes the whole top menu area down into my browsing area. What happened? Google Chrome has tabs across the top and it is the best thing ever. I guess when the final release (or even a beta) of Chrome comes out for Mac I know what browser I am going to use. Thank for making the decision easy Apple. I really like Safari, so if you guys were to make this tabs across the top thing at least an option I would stick with you.

Put your glasses on. There's still a '+' button. It's in line with the tabs on the right, assuming you have 'Show tabs' selected.

What happened to the Save Frame As... on the File menu? It was there in FF 3.6; it's absent now.

My data source is a daily table on a Web page. In FF 3.16 I click in the table and select File>Save Frame As.... In the Save As dialog box, I key a file name ending in ".txt". The data is saved in a tab-separated text file that I open in Excel.
In FF 5.0.1 File>Save Page As… results in Excel opening a blank sheet.

Right-click the frame with that file to get "This Frame" > "Save Frame as"

How can I watch for an alarm, then wait to see what happens before the save?

I have resurrected an old project, thus using outdated software (LV6.0.2)... any help is awesome.
I am attempting to gather strain gage information on a piece of equipment. Ideally, when the strain gage level reaches a certain point, I would like to cause an alarm that alerts the user, gathers data for an additional xx seconds, then dumps all this information into a file. Thus saving the information leading up to the event, and the system response following.
Though I haven't figured out how to preset the file name, (working on that), my current hurdle is figuring out how to get LV to continue saving data after the initial alarm. I can dump the information directly to a file, but its the continuation that stumps me.
Any help is good help.
Thanx,
Paul

>>If you don't mind, post a simplified version of your VI.
Due to my extensive self-taught knowledge of LV, simplified versions are all I can currently create. At the moment, I am trying to gather concepts for later final assembly, as I am an electrical engineering student working at an internship where I am the only EE on staff. Final Assembly date is early Sept.
How am I doing it?? Good question.. Still figuring that part out. Currently I acquire a sample of 83 points w/ rate at 5000. This was chosen as 1 complete cycle of 60Hz to remove unwanted noise. These 83 samples are put trough the 'mean' function, and scaled appropriately to allow accurate results from the 'Strain Conv' function, then processed to achieve accuracy in psi and sent to a chart for real time observations, and to a tunnel for indexing.
I would like to add an alarm to indicate when the output hits xxxx (roughly 15000), acquire an additional 10 seconds of information, then save this to a file.
Thus far I was planning on trying Sequence loops...
Frame 1: use a 'sequence local' to get the initial data to later frames, where the alarm would stop the first while loop.
Frame 2: continue sampling the data for xx seconds, send to another sequence local
Frame 3: gather both locals together, build new array, save this to a file... Hopefully with a time/date like stamp as a file name to allow it to run un-monitored for an extended period of time.
As this is a new venture, I have thus far not attempted frames 2 & 3 yet, working on that. I am guessing that the tick count you are referring to in your suggestion is from the iteration counter ('i' in a blue box), inside the while loop. I will work on that.
I also recently contacted CC for assistance creating a time/date stamp for the file name... do you think this could work? (didn't ask this specifically) and I still haven't figured out how to create a file path from this. (granted the whole file path thing is a mystery in general)
Plus.... when events happen, all data from the beginning of the aquisition run is saved, the longer the run, the longer the file. Is there a way to limit this to say.... the last 3000 samples? I think it would have something to do with creating an array xx long to start, then filling it, when the array is full the next point in the top will kick the last one out the bottom. (i think)
I have attached one of the most recent versions of my attempts, hopefully you can open it. Please note I am using LV6.0.2
Thank you sooo much for your help, (this is meant for EVERYONE). I feel lost. Everyone's direction and responses in all areas has been invaluable. Though I wish more would post in neutral formats, as there are many vi's I would like to glance at that I cannot due to version gaps.
