What happened to the tabs in the address book

I recall a lot of debate on the appearance of the Address Book.  Most of that for me was comestic.  I realize to many it is an issue important to them.  But one feature that for me is functionally important is the tabs.  If I recall SL Address book had Alphabetic tab on the 'pagee' so I could flip th 'book' quickly to the section which is sorted unter tha letter.  So if I want a doctor name Fisher, I click on F.  If I want a friend named Johnson, I click on J, etc.  Now, to find an entry I need to *type* in their last name (or first if I sort by that and scroll from there.  I've checked all the preferences and I have found none to turn that on.
Does anyone know if anything like that feature still exists has the designed it for Kindergarden level taken that away as well.
Thanks,
Bruce

I would like to have a LONG conversation with some of these Engineers who *decide* these things.  I'm glad you mentioned iOS device appearance.  The iOS Address book HAS the equivalent of TABS in the alphabeta running down the right side of the display.  It is less accurage with a touch interfface but it does get me approximatelly there reasonably fast.  I mentioned this inconsistency with the iOS appearance in my bug report. 
Some of these guys need to get appearance (has nice and 'clean' and 'uncluttered' the interface is versus what functionality and usefulness is removed to do it.
Thanks.

  • I had about 17 tabs open on my browser. I clicked a link to open another one and when the tab opened the other tabs disappeared. What happened here?

    I had 17 tabs open. When I clicked a link to open a new tab all the other tabs disappeared. I thought a new window had been opened instead, but this is not the case there is only one window open on my mozilla browser. If I try to close the window I get a message that says there are 26 tabs opened, I opened 9 more tabs. Can anybody tell me what is going on here or how I might figure this out?
    Also, when I close a tab and try to reopen the tab using the right click menu, the 'undo closed tab' menu is disabled. What happened here? Can anybody tell me how to re-enable it?

    I've seen some occasional glitches with windows losing the toolbar area, but not one that disturbing.
    If you click and drag down on the 18th tab enough to tear it off into a new window (and possibly the same for the other newer tabs you opened), can you get the 17 tabs to re-appear in the first window? If not, I'm not sure there is a way to mend the window. If it's NOT a private browsing session, you might have to use Firefox > Exit (or File > Exit) and restore your session to get a working window. That won't work with a private window...
    As a backstop, you might also right-click a tab in the window > Bookmark All Tabs before ending your session. (Because session cookies and other transient data are not preserved when you reload bookmarks, this isn't as effective as restoring a session. On the other hand, bookmark storage is less fragile than session data storage.)
    Regarding Undo Close Tab, are the closed tabs listed on the History menu under Recently Closed Tabs? If so, that context menu item definitely should be enabled.

  • How do I put shortcuts to web sites in a (?) tool bar/browser bar...don't know what it is called. With IE, I can just drag the tab for the site to the area I want.

    How do I put shortcuts to web sites in a (?) tool bar/browser bar...don't know what it is called. With IE, I can just drag the tab for the site to the area I want

    Near the right-end of the address bar is a white star which can be difficult to see, but look closely. When you wish to bookmark a shortcut to the toolbar, double click the star. A window will open with the name of the webpage. Under that is the folder box which will probably read 'Unsorted Bookmarks'. Click the drop down arrow and change it to 'Bookmarks Toolbar' then click done.
    I have several folders on my toolbar such as Music, Mail, etc. in which I add multiple websites. If you wish to add a folder, click the second drop down arrow next to 'Bookmark Toolbar' and click 'New Folder' and give it a name.
    To add a bookmark to a folder, again double click the star, make sure you are in Bookmark Toolbar and click one of the two drop down arrows to find the name of the folder.
    For other bookmarks use Bookmark Menu. Whatever is added here can be accessed by Bookmarks on the Menu Bar. If your Menu Bar with Bookmark, File, View, etc. is not visible, click the Alt key and they will become visible. To keep the Menu Bar, click View, Toolbars and check Menu Bar.

  • I have not accessed my iBooks for a month. When I opened the application a while ago I found that all my books except for 2books have disappeared. What happened and how can I retrieve my books?

    One possible reason is have you synced to your computer's iTunes recently ? If so then it might have replaced the books that were on your iPad with those that are on your computer's iTunes library.
    You should be able to re-download them via the Purchased tab in the ibookstore in the iBooks app, or via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes and then sync them back to the iPad : re-downloading. If you re-download them directly on your iPad then you may want to copy them to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases, so that you have a backup copy of them and to see if it stops them disappearing from the iPad again when you sync (assuming that was the reason why they disappeard).

  • I was almost done my project. I hadn't published it anywhere. Then, the next day, the clips from my timeline went all grey and there was an "out of date" icon. My project was lost. What happened? It's not the first time it's done that!

    You can undo your permission changes. Probably the most relevant one is cookies. Try one or both of these methods:
    (1) Page Info > Permissions tab
    While viewing a page on the site:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Permissions
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Permissions
    (2) about:permissions
    In a new tab, type or paste '''about:permissions''' and press Enter. Allow a few moments for the list on the left to populate, as this information needs to be extracted from a database.
    Then type or paste ''rcn''' in the search box above the list to filter it to the most relevant domains. When you highlight a domain, you can adjust its permissions in the right pane.
    Any luck?

  • What happens when multiple users access the same servlet?

    Do the users share all the same resources? Or is a new process generated for each user? I have a servlet that builds a string to return to the user and I only have myself to test, so I can't really see what happens when many users access the servlet. Is there a possibility that the string will get screwed up, like when dealing with multiple threads, or do all the users get their own resources and I don't have to worry about that?

    huh? if you can point a test servlet at it, you can point a browser at it (even if the servlet does not serve html it will run)
    try pasting the servlet URL into a web browser
    refreshing multiple browsers repeatedly could provide a manual test

    I just got the new itunes and I can open itunes and see my music but whenI try and go to the itunes store it just loads to a white page. I try and refresh and go to the home page and nothing happens. I can sign into my account and the tabs for the itunes store pop up like they normally would when browsing the itunes store but when I click on one of them, it is a blank page. Is there a setting I need to change? Does it just take an extremely long time to load? Please help!!

  • What happened to clicker/headphones in the 3rd generation Nano?

    In previous models I've set the clicker setting to headphones. This way I was able to operate the iPod without looking at the screen, even with sound isolating headphones.
    In the new Nano the only options are on and off, in both settings I am unable to use the click wheel without looking at the screen.
    Am I missing something here?
    Thanks.

    I'd also like to know what happened to this option in the 3rd gen nano. In Settings > Clicker, the options are now "Turn Off Sound While Scrolling" and "Play Sound While Scrolling", where the click is audible only through the iPod's speaker and not the headphones.
    In the mini, 1st and 2nd generation nano, Settings > Clicker gave you the options of "Turn Off Sound While Scrilling", "Play Click Through Speaker", and "Play Click Through Headphones".
    I just don't see much point in the clicker being played through the external speaker: if you're using the iPod surely you've got headphones in your ears! And not having audible feedback for menus through the headphones just makes it that much harder to use the ClickWheel. I hope that a software update restores this missing feature!

    Try compressed air. Try tweezers and a magnifying glass with good light.
    The next step would be to Google an iPhone repair service in your area or use this as a good reason to upgrade.

  • What happened to Effort metrics in the Custom Reports data model?

    What happened to Effort metrics in the Custom Reports data model?
    Is there any way to use the Custom Reports data model to report on task effort?  This was a metric captured in the Standard Reports Data Package, but looking through the metrics in the Custom Reports data model (particularly the ServiceTask Fact table) I do not see any effort related metric. 

    Ed is right.  The Custom Report data model on pre-2007.1.1 did not contain task effort data but it is added as a fact to report against in the 2007.1.1 release.  You will get this once you upgrade to 2007.1.1 and turn on the task effort entry setting in site administration.
