When I open Safari why does it not open my pre-set home page, but instead opens multiple previously viewed web pages?
I open up Safari and expect it to go straight to my home page, but instead it seems to open any number of previously viewed web pages. I have recently installed Lion and I don't recall this happening with Snow Leopard. Any ideas...?
Hold down the shift key as you click the Dock icon. This will kill the automatic "resume" feature found in Lion.
Hold down the Option key when you use the Safari menu to quit the app. This will "discard windows".

my computer is showing full connection through the airport but wont open any web pages it says it is not connected to the internet... When i hard wire the internet in with the cord it works just fine so i think i somehow messed up or turned of my wi fi capability but i show my airport is on
Your computer is showing it's connected to the Wifi router all right, but perhaps the router isn't connected to the Internet.
If your connecting the Ethernet cable directly to the modem and resetting it, bypassing th erouter and then getting online, fine that's good.
If your connecting to the router directly and getting on the Internet fine, it means the router is connected to the Internet.
If the last one is true then likely what has occured is your DCHP lease is expired because your computer doesn't have the right time and date as the router, it's showing a good signal but your not connecting.
Open System Preference and check the date and time and set it to update to Apple's time server for your location.
Sometimes Apple's time is off, as third party routers get their time elsewhere and sometimes the two don't match and thus DCHP lease is expired.

When browsing for photos, why does it not recognize the most recent iPhoto photos?
Whether I'm browsing for a photo to upload to a website, or to put into a word document and use the "Photo" directory which looks at my iPhoto photos it doesn't seem to register photos that I've put into iPhoto recently. I'm not sure if there's a way to "refresh" this directory or not, and there's no exact time that I've been able to recognize where the photos are available through this browser. It's kind of annoying, as I'm using iPhoto to manage all my photos.
Anyone run in to this?You can't and shouldn't access image files inside the library via the Finder. The following is from a post by Terence Devlin on accessing photos for use outside of iPhoto. It's the definitive treatise on the subject.
There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
(Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps. If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running:
For users of 10.6 and later: You can download a free Services component from
MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu.
Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
For Users of 10.4 and 10.5 Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility
Karelia iMedia Browser
Other options include:
Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
Show File: a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected. 3.b.
b: On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

When I open Firefox, why does it take so long for my home page (which is aol) to load?
Really nothing more to say, it just takes so long to open my home page I get annoyed and close it out. Please help cause I really like Firefox and it worked alot faster when I first installed it.
Reset the homepage to something else, or do not use a home page at all.

My name is Marc Sven Wilson and I am the guitarist for the Tonepoets. Music is my greatest passion and I have been writing songs since the moment I first picked up a guitar in 1995!!
My early influences came from the rock scene bands like Guns n Roses and Iron Maiden, but my musical upbringing was focused around listening to melodic music by bands such as the Beatles, Dire Straights, Simon and Garfunkle, Meatloaf and Chris Rea.
I grew up being heavily influenced by music from the American grunge scene, i.e. Nirvana, The Smashing Pumpkins, Soundgarden, Soul Asylum, The Pixies and many more.
I love music that has melody and substance, music that is real and written by the artist. I don’t really get this pop scene, it is false, so I generally tend to stay away from the unreal elements that kinda music portrays!!
I am a passionate person, honest and loyal. I will always do my best to help people. I am creative and to the point and I love to socialise and meet new people, usually at a party, where ever it may be!! I am chilled out but will not tolerate liars or people who are generally here to waste my time. I like people to be straight talking and genuine, oh and I love my guitar, nuff said.
Here’s to the Tonepoets and the magical mystery that awaits us!!That page is an UTF-8 encoded page (meta tag), but the Apache/2.2.3 server sends it as Western ISO-8859-1 and that is what Firefox uses to display the page.
See http://www.w3.org/International/O-HTTP-charset#server
Add this to the file .htaccess:
<pre><nowiki>AddDefaultCharset utf-8
AddCharset utf-8 .txt .html .htm</nowiki></pre>
If you have problems with configuring the server then you can ask advice at the mozillaZine Web Development/Standards Evangelism forum.<br />

Probably not the right place to be asking but....Java on web pages
Create web pages using Java ?
> create web pages using Java
> demonstrate an understanding of how Java can be used in web pages
> create graphics on web pages using Java
The above is an objective from Edexcel's Higher National Diploma syllabus for the unit Java Programming.
Another part of the syllabus, referring to this, talks about Javascript. Having contacted Edexcel and pointed out that Java and Javascript are different, I was told "oops we meant Java".
Has anybody any idea what they might be expecting because I can't get them to answer any more queries.Create web pages using Java ?

Either way, if they got it mixed up then that is course you want to stay well away from.
Java in web page = JSP or JSF, 2 examples.
Javascript is .... well..... Javascript!

On the wifi settings it shows that my ipod is connected to a network, but when I try to open safari it does not open it, because it says its not connected to wifi
You may not really be connected to your WiFi network.
Your router may not have given your iPod a valid IP address. Go to Settings > Wifi > your network name and touch the ">" to the right to see the network details. If the IP address starts with 169 or is blank then your router didn't provide an IP address and you won't be able to access the Internet.
Sometimes the fix can be as simple as restarting your router (remove power for 30 seconds and restart). Next, reset network settings on your iPod (Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings) and then attempt to connect. In other cases it might be necessary to update the router's firmware with the latest from the manufacturer's support web pages.
If you need more help please give more details on your network, i.e., your router make, model and version, the wifi security being used (WEP, WPA, WPA2), etc. -

Why does 'User not registered for online use' show up when I try to import a cd into itunes? None of the cd info shows up either.
Well, the format I upload from the camera is "video clip" or "video for Windows"...sometimes I've converted them to avi format, too. But as I said, it never even lets me get that far...I never get to even select a clip. As soon as I tell the program to "import/clip" it freezes up before I can even go to the folder that the clips are in. It has only begun to do this recently, and I'd never had any problems like this before. Last night I tried it again, and I clicked "open composition", and it froze when I did that too.
I'm not sure how much more specific I can be about the details of the clips, since I'm positive it has nothing to do with the clips themselves...I'm running Windows XP, though...Home Edition Service Pack 2, Pentium 4 CPU 2.80GHz, with 504 MB of RAM. I have had the automatic updates turned on since I did my last reformat a couple of weeks ago. Could it have something to do with some kind of an update it may have done? -

put movies in itunes on one computer why does it not show up when i access itunes from other computers or ipad2?
i just purchased a file that had videos in it. i put them in the itunes library on my pc where i first downloaded them. i was able to transfer them to my other pc, a laptop, through my home network. i am now trying to get them on my mac pro desktop and my ipad2. my mac pro can see the other computers on my home network but i cannot get it to connect to them. i know the operating systems are different but was hoping i could transfer pictures and files from pc to mac this way. haven't been able to get it to work yet. the videos i am trying to get my mac to see came in a folder with both mac and pc versions. i thought if i got the videos i purchased into itunes that i would then be able to get them to my mac pro and my ipad2. i am new to mac/apple and have always been pc-centric so trying to marry it all has been difficult. i speak pc pretty well but am just learning apple. am i trying to do things that are not possible? i sure could use a knowledgable friendly soul to walk me through my issues of having pc and mac on the same network. i have been able to get all computers and ipad to print on my network. thanks.
