Why does new Safari screen appear almost every day?

Almost every day, I get a screen welcoming me to Safari, as if I had never used Safari before. This has been going on for about a week. In each case, I reset the settings, but the next day a new "Welcome" screen appears.

This happened to me, and I started paying really close attention to what I was doing . . .. I found that, being used to a wired Apple mouse, I got into the habit of tapping on the top of the mouse while waiting for the page to change.  This sets off Zoom on the Magic Mouse. 
So see if that's what's happening with you.  I have to really watch it.  I've gotten much better at not subconsciously tapping on the top, but it still happens every once in a great while.  Otherwise, I love the Magic Mouse.
EDIT:  If this is what's happening with you, you can undo it by tapping again on the top of the mouse.  It's like a toggle.

  • Why does new 5s screen look like the old 4?

    We just bought and backed up two new 5s replacing iphone 4. Why does one new 5s screen look like the old 4 iphone. One phone shows new version, one is still old. I have downloaded and backed up twice, same thing happens. Used icloud to backup.

    Sure, here's two photos, LP5 is the old screen style, NP5 is the correct screen. Note the differences?

  • Why does my Indesign program appear pixelated every time I open it?

    I have recently downloaded the Creative Suit 6 but every time I have tried to open Indesign it appears pixelated making it hard to use. Does anyone have an explination and/or solution to this problem?

    Are you referring to the resolution of placed images? InDesign has different levels of preview quality that you can select to match the speed of your machine. The default level is "Typical," which is a low resolution image preview that draws quickly but looks horrid. Any reasonably modern machine should be able to handle the High Quality Display setting without choking on most files, and you can change it from the the View menu by choosing View > Display Performance > High Quality Display, but it's probably even better to open the application prefernces and change the default setting. You can choose to leave object level dispaly performance enabled which will allow you to set the preview individually for very large images that cause a delay while working.

  • Why does my Safari screen keep zooming in?

    First off, I LOVE OSX Lion. It's the fastest system upgrade I've ever seen on a Mac. With that said, I have this problem. I'm using a Magic Mouse. Just since my Lion upgrade, while I'm in Safari, browsin', every so often it just zooms in close on the page. Doesn't matter the site. It does it on a google search or a Mac discussions page. Something I am inadvertently doing or some glitch with the system (with mouse?). I say mouse because it usually happens as I move the mouse over to click on something on the page. I thought it might be a combination of twitching fingers on mouse top, and maybe the movement of mouse together. I don't know, but when it happens I can't undo it. So I have to get out of the page. If I just try to reload page, or put the same thing in the search engine again, it doesn't matter, it still is zoomed. It's ridiculous.
    Anybody know how I can either stop it or zoom back? I'm puzzled.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • I open any page on Firefox and the page dimms and a box appears with number 2 and a button (ok) ,I have to press ok to continue Why does this box keep appearing on every page and site and hyow do i stop it ?

    I have uninstalled and reinstalled a few different versions of firefox to check if this was the problem but no. As soon as firefox has started the box appears with the triangle with ! in it the number 2 and the button ,ok.
    I have to press ok to get the page on every page i open. I need help!

    This is caused by the InternetEngine - Powering Applications! extension. If you uninstall that extension it should stop this happening.

    Why does the Flash Player update almost every day?

    You think these are the only/main cause of security issues?
    As a developer let me tell you it is far from the case. Most security issues are a direct result of user carelesness.
    Let me give you an example....
    I'm just a loley ole developer, no one special, but I do create many web apps/mobile apps, and many are free, and widely distributed.
    One example is a social networking web app based on html5 and google maps api - a gps enabled social web app.
    trufaces.com
    This is just one example of hundreds, I offer free hosting services truimagz.com/host and mush more.
    Anyway, the point is... do you have any idea how many people sign up using an email adress and their actuall email password as their login info?
    90%+
    I, just some schmuck, have access to over 50,000 email accounts and passwords at any given moment. Thank god I'm trustworthy eh?
    Just food for thought.

    why is my ipad keep restarting almost every 5 minutes and also why is the screen not rotating.

    Nobody here can answer a question like that. Try rebooting your iPad and see if that helps.
    Reboot 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
