When I close FF 3.6.22 I am not given the option to save multiple tabs.

I run FF both at home and at work. I am still running 3.6.2x in both places because I've not been happy with the later versions. At work this morning, FF restarted and updated to 3.6.22. When I went to close FF at the end of the day, with my usual 5 tabs open, I was not given the option to save my tabs. This is one of the main reasons that I uninstalled 4, and have not installed anything else. This is an extremely important feature for me and I would like to know how to recover this ability.

See item #31 [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#tabslost Restoring tabs from a lost session] (#tabslost)
in the following
You can make '''Firefox 6.0.2''' look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered '''items 1-10''' in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 8.0, look like 3.6)]. ''Whether or not you make changes, you should be aware of what has changed and what you have to do to use changed or missing features.''
* http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface
There is a lot more beyond those first 10 steps listed, if you want to make Firefox more functional.

When I select Apple TV for AirPlay, I'm not given the option to mirror my device. Did this go away with ios8?

Apple tv and iOS 8

Mirroring is still available. When you select airplay the pop up window opens giving you the option of iPad, Apple TV, the mirroring is hidden further down scroll the window and you will find it.
Hope this helps.

When trying to download a program I am not given the option to run the program only to save or cancel. a pop up screen appears the download is loaded and I have to double click on it to actually download it into my computer. Is this normal

I switched from using IE and when downloading programs through there a windows always popped up asking to run save or cancel the file. With Firefox it only gives me the option to save or cancel and when pressing save a pop up window appears and the file is then downloaded to that. Then I have to go to it and double click to run it. I do not always want to save everything only run some things. Is there a way to change this. it seems like I am double downloading, first to the pop up window then into my computer instead of straight into my computer. is there a faster better way to download. This also eats up my download allowance from my internet satellite company this way.

When attempting to Sign a pdf document I am not finding the option to use an image, I'm only able to use a digital signature. I want to use a jpg file.

I click on Fill & Sign Tools, then I click Place Signature. The instructions show a dialog box with four options however that does not happen. I am only presented with the option of importing a digital signature. How do I get to the option of importing an image (jpg) signature?
Robert

I assume you have a digital ID set up already. When you sign then you need to select how the signature is to appear and you can then select create new appearance. Not sure if this is what you are dealing withage.

HT5312 On my iPod touch it asked for my apple security questions, I do not remember them and when I go to manage my account I can not find the option to send to the recovery email, nor can I find a way to reset them.

Until i know my security questions I am unable to purchase music on my ipod

Didn't the link to contact the iTunes Store staff in the 'Additional Information' section of that article work for you? If you don't already have a valid rescue email address, only Apple itself can reset the questions.

I use Pages ,when I close a document is it automatically backed up to the cloud

When I use the app "Pages" when i close a document is it automatically backed up to the cloud. I worry if my computer crashes I have many documents that I do not want to lose. Or should I be backing up to a thumb drive... if tha is the case how do i do this from pages?

If you plug in a thumb drive it'll show up in Finder. You can just copy your Documents folder to it. You might want to consider a Time Capsule, which will automatically back up everything on your Mac. It's very transparent, meaning once you set it up it takes care of everything. Additionally, it saves older versions of your files. Say you had a version last Thursday that was almost perfect, then you rewrote it and accidentally saved it. With Time Machine (the software that works with the Time Capsule), you can just go back to last Thursday and retrieve the old version.

How can I save my open tabs when I close FF4. FF3 gave me the option to save and quit when closing.

I use multiple tabs every day and they are for the most part the same tabs on Fire Fox 3.6. When I closed my FF3 at the end of the day I had the option of saving my tabs so the would open again the next day.
On FF4 I no longer have this option. Now it just warns me I'm closing 7 tabs. No option like before.

One change in Firefox 4 is to by default stop Firefox displaying the warning message, but 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'''

With multi tabs open I go to close Firefox 5.0 and it will not keep the tabs there it closes all tabs so when I restart I have to re-open the tabs. I was using 3.6 firefox and had the option to close but keep the tabs so they would open when I re-started firefox.

When i click on safari it says safari could not open the page because the server stopped responding

when i click on safari it says safari could not open the page because the server stopped responding

The last page that you looked at stopped responding and has caused Safari to loop the error.
Go to Settings
Safari
Turn on Private browsing and close all open tabs
Turn off Private browsing and open Safari.
This should solve the problem.
If it doesn't:
Put phone in to AirPlane mode and open safari. Shut down the phone by holding down the power button and turn it back on.
This will have resolved your problem.
Good luck!

I have a 16GB iPhone 3GS. Tried synching my phone through iTunes (11.0.1 I think... on a 2009 Macbook Pro). Now when I connect to iTunes, it says it does not recognise the content on my phone. Is this because my phone (and laptop) are too old?

I have a 16GB iPhone 3GS. Tried synching my phone through iTunes (11.0.1 I think... on a 2009 Macbook Pro). Now when I connect to iTunes, it says it does not recognise the content on my phone. Is this because my phone (and laptop) are too old?
Also, when I tried to Restore the settings, an Error Message pops up that says " The iPhone software update server could not be contacted. The requested resource was not found.
I'm trying to free up space on my phone by removing [literally] thousands of old photos which were originally synched to the phone, because I had forgotten to uncheck the photos button when I synched it ages ago.
I have also tried synching it on my 24" iMac (running OSX Snow Leopard). But again, when I try restoring the phone through itunes, it says the file is corrupted. It sggests unplugging the device, and then plugging it in again. I have done this numerous times with no success.
I'm guessing it must be because my phone (and versions of iTunes, and OSX) are all too old.
Please can anybody help.
Cheers,
Dan_nz.

There are multiple reasons that lead to issue. You should read the troubleshooting guide to get the right solution to solve the issue: iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support

Yeah, I'm having the same exact problem - It seems that the thunderbolt minidisplay port is only able to output the analog VGA signal, not the digital signal to support DVI and HDMI. This is a bug that came up after installing 10.7.1. I bought my macbook air with 10.7 on it, upgraded it to 10.7.1 as soon as I got it, so I have never been able to use hdmi or dvi with my macbook air. This is an extremely frustrating problem for me, I used HDMI on a daily basis with my PC. I have spent many hours at the genius bar running diagnostic tests so Apple can get as much information as possible to create a fix for this problem. I have been emailing tech support for 3 or so weeks now, they keep saying that they are working on a fix and it should be out soon, but 10.7.2 has come and gone and I still have no HDMI functionality with my MacBook Air!

When closing firefox 4.0 with multiple tabs open, i wish to save this setup when i reopen firefox. the option to save my setup is now not in the prompt. only that i'm closing multiple tabs. how do i do this?

in the older version of firefox, you were prompted when you were closing multiple tabs. but you were also given the option of saving the current setup so that when you reopened firefox, this current setup would reopen also. how do i make this happen with firefox 4.0?since i updated to firefox 4.0, there is no obtion given to save my current setup.

You can change Firefox preferences so that you also get the option to save the current tabs when quiting: 
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message about being careful and you will see a list of settings.
# Type '''browser.showQuitWarning''' into the ''Filter'' box at the top.
# If its value is ''false'', double-click on it to change it to ''true''.

I have Windows 7, Microsoft Outlook and PSE 13. I have used the "Share photos as embedded images" feature frequently, but today when I went to use it, it wasn't there, only the option to send email with files attached. How do I get back the ability to send emails with photos embedded. I like adding the frames and backgrounds and I think it's easier for recipients to look at the photos. Thanks for any suggestions of things to try.

I had a similar problem in that my wife's iphone 5 could not send pics with imessage. Had to set the settings to default to SMS or whatever. After laboring many hours on the web I coincidentally was on the phone with the internet people to question my internet speed. They changed the router channel, which is something that I am capable of doing myself. After that, the pics go over imessage. My own Iphone didn't have the problem. We are both latest IOS 7.0.6.

I want to take the photos off my iPhone and put them directly onto an external hard disk. I want to bypass iPhoto altogether. When I link my iPhone to my computer, it only opens in iTunes, which only gives me the option to save my photos to iPhoto. Help!

I want to take the photos off my iPhone and put them directly onto an external hard disk - I don't have any room left on my computer. I want to bypass iPhoto altogether. When I link my iPhone to my computer, it only opens in iTunes, which only gives me the option to save my photos to iPhoto. Help! This is seriously frustrating!.
Additionally, I'd like to be able to take the 2000+ photos out of iPhoto and put them on a disk in a folder. I have managed to export them to the hard disk but it's just plonked all 2000+ photos in a list - not ideal if I want to use it for anything else. And then I have to manually delete the photos from iPhoto. Is there not a quick and easy way of dealing with this?
Anyone got any bright ideas? Thanks for your help!

I too would like to be able to do this. Just put them where i want the. IFTT a scripting app will put the images in dropbox for you , but its been pretty iffy.

When I close FF 3.6.22 I am not given the option to save multiple tabs.
