Why does safari re-open my last visited page instead of my homepage? I have the preferences set to always open to homepage in new tabs or windows or upon starting safaring.
Why does Safari open my last visited page?? I have gone into preferences and said to open to homepage when starting safaring or opening a new tab yet each time it opens to the last page I visited.
Hold down "shift" key and launch Safari
or hold down "option" key before quitting Safari to discard saved windows from previous session.
Disable Resume feature.
10.7 Lion
System Preferences > General
Uncheck the box next to "Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps".
10.8 Mountain Lion
System Prefernces > General
Chckmark the box next to "Close windows when quitting an application".

A few days ago without warning, when I opened Firefox the page that came up was the last one visited, no matter how long ago -- a few hours, overnight. I kept going to Tools , Options to instruct it to open with my (defined) home page. No use.
So, what gives and how do I fix it?
kvvYou can check if you have a user.js file in the Firefox profile folder that sets the <b>browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once</b> pref to true.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once
You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
Note that Windows hides some file extensions by default.
Among them are .html and .ini and .js and .txt, so you may only see file name without file extension.
You can see the real file type (file extension) in the properties of the file via the right-click context menu in Windows Explorer.
There are other things that need your attention.
Your System Details List shows multiple Flash plugins.
*Shockwave Flash 15.0 r0
*Shockwave Flash 14.0 r0
You can find the installation path of all plugins on the <b>about:plugins</b> page.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Issues_related_to_plugins#Identifying_installed_plugins
You can check the Flash player installation folder for multiple Flash player plugins and remove older version(s) of the plugin (NPSWF32) and possibly (re)install the latest Flash player.

Back Button - Why does it go back a FRAME (framed pages) instead a PAGE ?
In a "framed" site, the Back button causes the display going back one frame, following back goes back another frame, 3 framed page needs 3 backs to finally beeing back on previous page. Why ? Error in page setup or in handling of FF?
Rgds JordiThis is clearly a heavy bug in FF4, and now also continued in FF5.
The typical "main" window on the right side, within a frameset, is not going back when using the Back function, when this window is targeted from any JavaScript in the menu in the window on the left (or top) side.
If a "main" window is targeted instead by plain HTML, or out of an Applet, the back function in FF4 and FF5 behave correctly.
This bug can be verified by querying anything from a site like
http://www2.rgzm.de/navis2/home/FramesE.cfm
All websites using JavaScript based frameworks this way won't work correctly anymore in FF4 and FF5.
Thus, when the menu in a left frame is JavaScript driven, FF4 and FF5 don't now about its history anymore. This worked in FF3 and it is perfectly working in all other browsers. This serious bug will force users of any JavaScript based menu in a website to switch to one of these other browsers.
Its not clear to me whether the JavaScript engine does something wrong, or whether FF4 and FF5 itself are not keeping track correctly. What is clear, however, that this basci functionality was broken somewhere between FF3 and FF4.

Safari won't start w/homepage or last visited page.What causes this?
Safari will not start with my homepage or the last visited page. When I check the "restore windows when quitting box in "general Preferences" it will not stay checked. Therefore Safari always starts with a page that I visited days ago.
but I am not sure what I am running now after the restore, it looks like from the crash report that it has gone back to version 5 and maybe thats the issue, but software update reports there is no updates available.
The report indicates 5.1.6 is currently installed.
Version:
5.1.6 (7534.56.5)
Click here > Safari Quits Every Time Opened: Apple Support Communities
Then click the link posted by: gregoryfromcork

Now quit Safari.
Go to your Downloads folder and double click that file and follow the instructions for installing.
Then restart your Mac, try Safari.

HT1420 Why does my computer keep asking to be authorized when i put my iphone on the charger?
Why does my computer keep asking to be authorized when i put my iphone on the charger?
Authorization and Deauthorization
See iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization for Macs.
See How to Authorize or Deauthorize iTunes | PCWorld for Windows.
In iTunes you use the Authorize This Computer or De-authorize This Computer option under the Store menu in iTunes' menubar. For Windows use the ALT-S keys to access it.
More On De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
1. Open iTunes on a computer
2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
You may only do this once per year.
After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us. -
Why does my cellphone keep saying that "estimating time remaining" when I try to upgrade the system?
Is there anyway to fix this situation?Hi Eric_Sun,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You may want to update your iPhone using iTunes on a computer if your device only shows "estimating time remaining" when you try to update wirelessly:
If you can’t update wirelessly, or if you want to update with iTunes, follow these steps:
If you use your device's Personal Hotspot for your computer's Internet connection, update your device wirelessly or connect your computer to another network.
Install the latest version of iTunes on your computer.
Plug in your device to your computer.
In iTunes, select your device.
In the Summary pane, click Check for Update.
Click Download and Update.
If you see an error message while updating your device, you can learn how to resolve iOS update errors in iTunes.
You can find these steps here:
Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4623
If you are still not able to update, I recommend the steps in this article next:

How to make login page navigate to last visited page?
Hi,
In our application, there are many public pages. In certain page, users need to login and then add or edit something. But login page will navigate to page 1 by default. Uses need to click some times to locate the last visited page.
I defined a new applicate item "LASTPAGE", and a new application process "setpage":
begin
if :APP_PAGE_ID!=101 then
select :APP_PAGE_ID into :LASTPAGE from dual;
else
select 1 into :LASTPAGE from dual;
end if;
end;
"setpage"'s process point is "On Load: Before Header(page template header)"
In login page 101, log in process is like following:
wwv_flow_custom_auth_std.login(
P_UNAME => :P101_USERNAME,
P_PASSWORD => :P101_PASSWORD,
P_SESSION_ID => v('APP_SESSION'),
P_FLOW_PAGE => :APP_ID||':'||:LASTPAGE
But the thing is it does not work. Log in page still go to page 1.
Best regards,
Qiang.

user535779Hi Scott,
I would like to branch at the page that I am trying to get to from page 101.
Let say page 12 Requires Authentication
When I am not logged in , and I try to access Page 12 , I get branched to page 101 (login page).
Now , from page 101 , I would like to branch to the page I was trying to access , in this case Page 12
wwv_flow_custom_auth_std.login(
P_UNAME => :P101_USERNAME,
P_PASSWORD => :P101_PASSWORD,
P_SESSION_ID => v('APP_SESSION'),
P_FLOW_PAGE => :APP_ID||:APP_PAGE_ID
The problem is that APP_PAGE_ID contains 101 and not 12

Each time I open my Firefox browser, the tab from the last time opens. I have the browser set to open on my home page, not to the tab from the last time. I keep trying to save the setting for the browser to open on my home page but it doesn't.
Try to create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.
See:

Why does my mac mini's mouse show a pinwheel every time I hover over the date area? Also, sometimes the date/time shows up incorrectly. It started happening after I updated to OS X Mountain Lion.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Try the action that you're having trouble with again. Post any messages that appear in the Console window – the text, please, not a screenshot.
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into a message.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting. -
When I set Firefox to start from last visited page and this page contains response headers Cache-Control:mast-revalidate and Expires:0 (not in meta tag) the page doesn't revalidated on the start of Firefox.
Is there a way to force the revalidation in such situation but using the cache as usual. I mean - I can't use no-store directive in Firefox (can in Opera and Chrome) since it prevents usage of cache at all (and Last Modified mechanism in particular) ?Thanks try67, but it isn't a required field. As I mentioned, only about 20% of submissions will require filling it in.
There isn't a submit button. Not even sure what I would do with/or how I would implement a submit button. After processing the form, the filled out form is 'Saved As' to keep the original forms integrity intact. The 'Saved As' file is renamed appropriately, and then it is printed to a PDF file and attached to the appropriate customer file. -
Why does my Airport Express say "self assigned IP address"? No IP address for the ethernet, and it is not connecting to my cable router any longer...
Some cable providers.....like mine, a well known company......seem to take anywhere from a few moments to sometimes up to 30 minutes to allow their equipment back at the cable company to fully reset and issue a new fresh connection.
So, it would not hurt to leave things powered down for 15-20 minutes or more when you perform the reset that John Galt suggests.
