WHAT IS MISSING FROM SAFARI !

I just installed Safari. While I like its interface, I see there are some important, I mean absolutely necessary features missing from Safari. Without them, it won't ever compete with established browsers like Opera.
1. When exiting, Safari should give the option to remember current tabs (websites). I can't stretch enough how important is this. Opera was the pioneer of this feature, it took many years to Firefox developers to decide that was necessary to add it and they finally did. What about Safari?
2. Give people the **** "new tab" button as default!!! Is this so hard for safari developers to think that a new tab button is absolutely necessary??? This is not optional! A new user has to spend time to figure out that he should dig deep into settings just to add that absolutely necessary button!!!
I don't like hitting combinations of keys just to open a new tab. That's not a complicated interface like a 3D graphic environment where your right hand is always busy -it's just a browser!
And the icon is poorly designed -it should be replaced with a better one.
BTW, what's that "Display a menu for the current page" title??? Couldn't they think of a proper one?
I'll post more as I'll be using Safari more.

Although it doesn't look like it is set up for the purpose, you can make feature enhancement requests directly to Apple via the "Help > Report Bugs to Apple":
+*Report issues and send feedback to Apple*+
+If you have an issue with a website or there is a feature you would like to see in Safari 4, you can choose Safari Settings Menu >Report Bugs to Apple... to send your data directly to the Safari team at Apple.+

  • Safari is giving me a missing plug in message when I try to view things like movie trailers. The trailers play on Firefox, so I'm not sure what's missing from Safari.

    Safari is giving me a missing plug in message when I try to view things like movie trailers. The trailers play on Firefox, so I'm not sure what's missing from Safari.  I have Safari 5.0.6 and Mac OS X 10.5.8.

    I just noticed that it won't play some newsite videos anymore either. What plug in do I need to update (if that's the problem)?

  • What is missing from Photoshop CS6 ???

         I tried the new PhotoShop CS6 (beta) but aside from some innovations of which my favorite is the interface (The interface is one of the best innovation that Adobe have made finally an interface that does not make you eyes hurt) and content aware move tool (content aware is definitely the best technology in Photoshop, may in the future in Photoshop CS20 will be voice-activated and will do exactly what you say even to draw for you) and maybe the new brushis, nothing that new, especially for those who draw in Photoshop concept artists, Ilustrators and so on ... etc
          In my opinion what is missing from the famous Photoshop CS 6 and should have been is :
         1 : Live symmetry drawing (horizontal and vertical) even the simplest programs like Alchemy / Sketchbook Pro and new Painter 12 has the function they have gone beyond the horizontal and vertical with the function of Kaleidoscope. I really like how the brush works in Alchemy especially in symmetry, in Sketchbook Pro are not so good in symmetry, unless thei are round but if you have a strange shapes thei tend to function as a parallel very strange but it is ther why the famous Photoshop does not have this function ??? I hoped that in PS CS6 (beta) to be, but no, I do hope maybe in the CS7 will be,
         2: I would like to make several sets of brushes, but in different windows on the screen at the same time not only a big one something like Corel Painter 12
         3: If you put a 3d function why do you tried to do something like the Google SketchUP fast, simple to use and easy to learn, or a simplified version of ZBrush sculpture in 3d clay ???
         Ok now let's talk about Bridge CS6: same functions, nothing so new, I hope that in the cs6 to implement something like the function of ACDSee Photo Manager 12 for example:
         Preview Thumbnails in a files, shortcuts that can be modified, such as double click I want to open fullscreen preview not send in photoshop or Camera Raw etc, why not the same as Photoshop, to make what I want to what I want, preview window to have the option of framing the image even if it is small or large (fit image, reduce or enlarge) the same for full screen mode the image will be framed by the edges of the screen (fit image height or widthand reduce or enlarge) from there if you want 100%, 200% etc. and many others
         What is right, there are many other features that I like and love in Bridge much more than ACDSee 12 such as preview multiple images at the same time in preview window and Review Mode (one of my favorite) and many others but ...   ... What was more important to me I said maybe for someone else is something else missing ...

    …Why on earth would you want to restrict Photoshop?…
    Because I may consider it to be bloated already?
    Because I don't need to be driving around in a motor home when my car fills my needs?
    Because I don't need a hammer that doubles as a screwdriver or water-heater when I need to drive a nail?
    Because a scalpel may be more useful for my purposes than a Swiss-army knife?
    Because I would prefer the engineering team to work on refining existing features and improving stability rather than add features that are better served in drawing and painting applications?
    Because I'm not particularly impressed by some of the new "features"?
    Because I would prefer to see improvements to the History panel as have been suggested and requested over the years?
    I could think of many more such reasons why.

    Duh!    Precisely! 
    Software bloat adds to the cost of developing and maintaining an application, delays the release of bug fixes and genuine improvements of existing features and eventually demands greater hardware resources.
    I have no clue as to what the he!! your "Prime Minister" quote is supposed to mean in the context of this discussion, unless you're implying that you feel like a 21-year-old whippersnapper who knows everything.  From your avatar picture you look younger than I am.  Besides, I know of very few "prime ministers" who are, were or have been particularly knowledgeable about "everything", so that may not even be a requirement for the job. 

  • How to check what is missing from iTunes library?

    Today I moved my entire iTunes library onto my external hard drive as I needed to reinstall Windows. I had 622 artists at the time. I copied over the entire My Music folder to my external hard drive before formatting my hard drive to make sure I didn't miss any files.
    When the process of installing Windows was complete, and I had transferred my library back onto the PC and into the new My Music folder, iTunes now said that I have 619 artists in my library. However, there are still 622 artist folders in the iTunes Media/Music folder.
    Can anyone recommend ways to accurately check what is missing, and suggest why the number is now lower? I have artists in my library with East Asian artist tags that have Sort Artist tags with English characters, so checking the folders in iTunes Media/Music against the iTunes library wouldn't be very accurate, as the orders are different.

    Hi xtanto,
    one more idea: I think that you can obtain some specific type of principal from the user principal object, and that type would differ for SSO and custom DB login.
    E.g. FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getUserPrincipal() returns a JAZNUserAdaptor instance under OC4J, which object contains this specific type of principal object somewhere in the getSubject().getPrincipals().iterator(). Then you can tell which login module is in use by checking if you have a DBUserPrincipal or a RealmPrincipal. (Note that these classes are just guesses.)

  • Basic functions and functionality missing from Safari 4.0

    Just trying to move to Safari from Firefox. The Develop tools cinched the move (hidden by default! Huh?).
    After all the years, I cannot believe Apple still haven't fixed some basic requirements of a web browser.
    1. Cannot find anything similar to Live Bookmarks (for viewing RSS feed headings). This makes RSS bookmarks far less useful (more or less useless, in fact, as you may as well have an ordinary bookmark and visit the site).
    2. All new links "seem" to open in current tab. Making tabs more or less useless. What's the point of having them if all new links open in current tab by default? Only way I can open in new tab is by holding down Command EACH time I click a link. Doh! Who thought of that default? A simple option that asks you if you want to open ALL new links in a new tab OR window is the expected behaviour -- to override, hold down a key.
    3. Cannot reorder bookmarks alphabetically (unless I have overlooked option). Couldn't do that waaaay back when Safari came out and still cannot years later.
    4. Adding bookmark opens bookmarks bar. Have you seen my bookmarks bar? Anything above 10-20 and the list takes years to find a target folder. While I can drag URL into a top level folder on the bookmarks bar, what if I want to add it a subfolder? Add 500 bookmarks and then try scrolling the list.
    5. Cannot open bookmarks and view a page at the same time! At times you just need something simple. While cover flow may be useful "sometimes," here it just gets in the way. Why not have two versions? Simple (view bookmarks and page at same time); Complex (a link that navigates away from current page and shows bookmarks with cover flow)?
    Apple, please fix ASAP. What's the point of having fastest browser if basic functions are overlooked (some overlooked since Safari first came out)?

    Post you report in Apple Bug Report. This is only a user to user forum. But at the same time I think some of your issues are easily addressed and will be shortly by other users.
    Cheers

  • IPad 2 iOS 5 multiple pages missing from safari

    I upgraded to the iOS 5 and now my safari web page doesn't have multiple pages unlike before that I can have 9 pages simultaneously and just switch from 1 to the next. Please help me fix this.

    Thank you very much. I thought that there was something that went wrong during my upgrading to the iOS 5, because I went ahead and used the iPad user guide and there with pictures it showed how the multiple pages should look like and mine just showed the tab/plus signs. With that said, I'm very disappointed with the new safari "upgrade". Again, Ty for the quick responses and informative answers.

  • PDF Toolbar missing from Safari 5

    The PDF toolbar no longer appears when viewing PDF files in Safari (5.1.2) on my MacBook Pro running the latest version of Lion. It is not running in 32 Bit mode.
    Any ideas?
    regards,

    Thanks Linc.
    The clue to the solution lies in the discussion:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3536184?tstart=0
    Where it identifies possible internet plugins as the cause. In my case it was not an Adobe plugin but a Quicktime plugin that was responsible.

  • Ivolume -- anybody know how long trial is... what's missing from Pay ver.

    First of all sorry if wrong spot... And yes I could contact the vendor...but thought folks here might know.
    I download ivolume...I love it...and am more than happy to pay for it...
    I expected the free trial version to expire by now...but it hasn't...how long do you get with the free version...and what doesn't it have that the paid version does.
    Again, sorry if inappropriate for this spot/forum.

    I believe that the trial version has no time limit but rather limits how many tracks it will process. Contact the developer to confirm.
    Regards.

    The only thing missing in the trial version is the Additional Content. That is all of the extra sound effects, music beds, etc.

  • Photos Beta Icon Missing from iCloud

    Starting yesterday I've tried to access the Photos beta through my iCloud account on a registered device (Macbook).
    On Chrome, the icon for Photos beta is present, but clicking in it only resulted in an error message.... Which I was just about to paste but now the icon is missing completely. The icon is also missing from Safari.
    Any thoughts or solutions from anyone else experience this? I am also told periodically by my 6 plus that the library hasn't synced in xx number of days, but I see from the forums that this another issue.
    Thanks.

    I'm getting the same problem in Safari.
    Have you sent the error report to Apple? Perhaps it will help to get the problem fixed.
    The beta page - https://beta.icloud.com  is giving the same error as https://www.icloud.com
    Perhaps this is a good sign, that Apple is working on the next release of iCloud Photo Library (Beta).

  • My icons are missing from finder and Safari.

    Not sure what I have done. My icons are missing from finder and Safari, tired the customise tool bar option with no joy,   please help.

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

    My Itunes Library and iPhone have fallen out of sync on music over the yearsare - how can I compare my itunes library with my Iphone  to see what songs are missing from my library so I can then bring my Library up to date

    Hello Solid Buck,
    Thank you so much for providing the details about the duplicate song issue you are experiencing.  It sounds like you would like to remove the duplicate songs that will not play on your iPhone, but when you connect it to iTunes, iTunes only shows you one copy of the song on your iPhone. 
    In this situation, I recommend deleting the individual songs that do not play directly from your iPhone.  I found the steps to do this on page 61 of the iPhone User Guide (http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf):
    Delete a song from iPhone: In Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,
    Sheila M.
