Why won't my safari screen stay maximized when I initially open?

I always have my safari screen maximized, but just recently everytime I start up safari, the screen is minimized.  How do I permanently have the safari screen maximized upon opening please?

From your Safari menu bar click Safari / Extensions. If you have any installed, turn that OFF. Quit Safari (Command + Q) then relaunch Safari.
If it's not extensions, follow the instructions here for third party Safari plugins that may be causing this.
Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
If third party plugins aren't the issue, login to another user account on your Mac. Launch Safari. See if you see the same problems, log back into your admin account. Launch Disk Utility (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left then select the FirstAid tab. Click: Verify Disk. If Disk Utility reports problems, follow the instructions here for Using Disk Utility to verify or repair disks.

  • Why does my macbook pro screen stay black when i open it

    This is an intermittent problem, it doesn't happen all the time.  I just wanted to know if I need to have my computer serviced or if I could correct it.

    See this Apple note on starting the system with no video, which may help trouble shoot it.
    I'd also run the Apple hardware test (run the extended test) to see if it picks up any hardware error.

  • Why won't some of my numbers spreadsheets from my iPad open with iCloud on my Mac (Yosemite)?

    Why won't some of my numbers spreadsheets from my iPad open with iCloud on my Mac (Yosemite)? When I look at the files in FiNader there's a grey bar next to the files that won't open.

    I am having the same problem. Created new spreadsheet on iPad with fresh iOS and Numbers installs (3/2015) and am unable to open this spreadsheet in iCloud in Safari on MacBook Air (all current). I get the following message:
    "Sorry, something went wrong.
    This spreadsheet can't be opened right now. Please try again later."
    Tried reopening on Mac from iCloud and resaving; still cannot open.
    Quick fix: Copying the spreadsheet content from the iPad spreadsheet to one created on the desktop recovers the ability to open it in iCloud in Safari.
    Thanks.

    I have tried numerous times to put in the password when opening Elements 10.  It would not accept it.  so I decided to get a new password.  In filling out the outline they want you to click yes on the Personal URL.  Meaning I assume that you put your pictures on the wed for others.  I do not want this. Am I not understanding that.    [email protected]

    Premiere Elements 10 on Windows 7 64 bit.....
    It sounds to me that you have a player problem or a disc problem and not a burn software problem.
    What players are involved - computer players (which ones) or DVD player standalone or attached to a TV or other?
    As for the DVD-R discs, I am not taking that out of the problem equation. If you take one of these DVD-R discs from the Premiere Elements 10 burn to DVD disc and explore it, do you find an OpenDVD Folder and a VIDEO_TS Folder? If so, if you open the VIDEO_TS Folder, can you find a VTS_01_1.VOB file and play it back on the computer
    If you do that same thing with one of the DVD-RW discs from the Premiere Elements 10 burn to DVD disc and explore it, what do you find?
    How long have you had the DVD-R discs in comparison to the DVD-RW discs? You mentioned that you did all this successfully a couple of years ago, and everything was the same then as now. Did you have these batches of discs then as opposed to now? Are the players the same then and now?
    Burn to Folder (4.7 GB) is always an option. But, I would like to see you have the opportunity of choice for to burn to disc or burn to folder.
    Looking forward to your results.
    Thanks.

  • Why does my computer crash to blue screen with message when Photoshop is open?

    This happened 3-4 times when I was using the trial version and I wasn't sure which program from the trials that was doing it, but it started after I downloaded and used the Adobe Clound trials so I stopped using them. Eventually I went ahead and upgraded to the subcription and have been using Illustrator and Muse for a few days now and have not had a problem until today. I had Photoshop open and minimized, as well as Illustrator, and walked away from my desk. When I returned, the screen was blue with the Windows "shut down to prevent further damage" screen. I have a photo of the message. I realized that I had been using Photoshop the last few times this happened also. It never happened before I tried this software and stopped when I stopped using the trial.
    I contacted support and chose to have someone call me back due to the wait. 15 minutes later, I got a call back from India and exlplained this. He got my phone number and asked me to hold while he got someone to help me. ONE HOUR AND 20 MINUTES later someone from India came on and I explained it all over again. He said he was going to check into it and 5 minutes later I was DISCONNECTED. No one called back and there is no option for Adobe, but to call back and start the process ALL OVER AGAIN. From what I see in these forums, it happens all the time and is serious problem with Adobe.I would never do business with a company with this type of horrible support and don't think I will continue my subscription with them. I am a graphic designer and do not have the time for computer crashes and support that does not care.

    Thanks, Bill. Your response has been the most helpful. I have not yet tried the steps in your articles, but have a little more info that may help narrow it down. However, it has not happened for a couple weeks. I run a large CAD progam that also has never caused this issue.
    The blue death screen occurs only when PS is open and when the computer goes to the screen saver. When I wake my screen this message is there:
    "A problem has been detected an windows has been shut down to prevent further damage to your computer.
    The problem seems to be caused by the following file: win32k.sys
    PAGE-FAULT-IN-NONPAGED-AREA
    If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps:
    Check to make sure any new hardware or software is properly installed. I this is a new installation, ask you hardware of software manufacturer fo any windows updates you might need.
    If problems continue, disable or remove any newly installed hardware or software. Disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing. If you need to use safe mode to remove or disable such components, restart your computer, press F8 to select Advanced startup options, and then select safe mode.
    Technical Information:
    *** STOP: 0x00000050 (0xE57C1304, 0x00000000, 0xBF8892C3, 0X00000001)
    ***  win32k.sys - Addre4ss BF8892C3 base at BF800000, DateStamp 4ff2f633"
    Beginning dump, blah blah blah.
    After this happenend 2-3 time after installing the PS trial, it was obvious that it was the only software change I had made. I stopped using it and went back to using my PS4 and the blue screen never happened again...until I purchase my subscription and used it again. I don't know if any of this helps narrow down what I can test, but you have given me the most knowledgeable feedback. Thanks again.

  • I'm trying to open a PDF from Safari with iBooks, but when I choose "Open with ..." in Safari, only Pages and Dropbox show as options.  I'm running iOS 7.1.2 and iBooks 3.2.  Thanks for any ideas!

    On my iPad, I'm trying to open a PDF from Safari with iBooks, but when I choose "Open with ..." in Safari, only Pages and Dropbox show as options.  I'm running iOS 7.1.2 and iBooks 3.2.  I have rebooted the iPad and that did not help, and reinstalled iBooks, which also changed nothing.  Thanks for any ideas!

    Yup, it was uploaded to our school Wiki as a PDF, and Pages did open it.  I was then able to move it to iBooks, but I'd rather avoid the extra steps.

  • Why does message say application components are missing when trying to open Photoshop?

    why does message say application components are missing when trying to open Photoshop?

    The probable causes are:
    A bad, or incomplete install
    Inability of the program to access the location of those components
    Deleted files, that are required for those components
    What is the exact text of the error message?
    Good luck,

  • Satellite A200 screen stays black when trying to boot

    Hello everyone,
    My Toshiba Satellite A200 notebook is not working anymore, so everything started when I was playing a game, suddenly, the screen turned blue with some tiny text written on it. I had to hold the power button a few seconds to close it because nothing was happening on the computer. I then pressed the power button to open it. Everthing was going well, until the welcome screen. At this part, it was written "Welcome" but the Vista loading circle left of it wasn't turning.
    After a few seconds, I decided to close the computer again, so I did hold the power button so the computer closed. Here is the problem : I tried to reopen it, but the screen stayed black. Nothing was happening. The power light was blue, but not any computer activity. So I let it like that a few minutes then closed it and tried again, but the same thing happened. I tried to disassemble it and noticed one of the two memory card wasn't fully in its slot. I fixed it, but it didn't fix the problem.
    I also tried to plug another screen on it, but that one was also black. So I put back the screen on its computer and tried to boot my laptop and it worked. It was booting, but the first problem came back, the Welcome screen was frooze there. So yes I did close it again and then the same thing happened, the screen stayed black.
    I don't think the problem is the screen because as I said sometime it goes to the welcome screen. Also I don't hear any welcome sound when the screen stays black as if the computer would simply not start up. And as I said earlier, I don't see any computer activity on the little light in front of the computer. And left of this one, I clearly see that the computer is ON because the power light is blue.
    So this is my problem, next time the computer manages to start up I'll try to boot it on the SAFE MODE, but until then, I don't know what to do. Please, help me.
    Thanks in advance,
    MrRoy
    EDIT :
    After letting the computer turned off for about 30 minutes, I started it, and booted in safe mode. At this step, I securely closed my comptuer with the shut down button instead on holding the power button. Then I reopened my computer, and it booted and the problem was fixed. Now my notebook is openened and working.
    So if this is happening to you :
    1. Shut down you computer.
    2. Wait for about 30 minutes.
    3. Boot in safe mode
    4. Shut it down using the shut down button istead off holding the power button.
    That should work.

    Finally, it doesn't work. I don't know why but my computer did start up after the 30 minutes, but now it's not working anymore. It just won't startup like I said later, with a black screen.
    The computer did work for about half an hour. I mean, I managed to start it up but after executing a program, it just froze and I had to hold the power button to restart it. I did it about 3 or 4 times, then it simply did the black screen again. I think the problem is my processor, maybe it's damaged or something, could it be possible?
    Because I see that the processor isn't working when I try to start it up.
    So let's say it's damaged, would that be the symptoms of my computer?
    And if it's the processor, the only way to fix it is to send it to a reparator or something, because I don't feel like it, I'd rather do it myself.
    But right now, my computer is simply not booting, like I said in my previous post.
    Thanks in advance,

  • MBP C2D 15": Screen Stays Asleep After Lid is Opened

    Hi All,
    So here's the deal... My new MPBP C2D 15" 2.33 screen stays black, off or broke (not working) when I open my lid after the computer is asleep sometimes. I know the machine is working despite the screen being off. Once I was listening to iTunes and pressed the space bar to stop the music and closed the lid because I was leaving. I came back a few hours later, opened the lid and the screen would not come on. I then pressed the space bar knowing that iTunes was the last app I used and the music began to play. Last night I was editing some video and saved the program and closed the lid for the night. Came back to edit video this morning and opened the lid and the screen was dark. Again pressed the space bar to play the video and the audio began to play.
    This has happened a few other times and I am forced to hold down the power button until the machine powers off. Obviously the computer is working except for the screen. What now?
    Peace,
    Bryan

    Generally you don't want to close the lid for the night. It won't necessarily harm the machine, but eventually it may create issues. Not everyone experiences them though. There are tasks which run in the middle of the night the machine needs to do, or you can force it to do with the freeware Macjanitor. Also if you have any peripherals connected to the machine when it goes to sleep, some may not understand the low power mode of the machine when it goes to sleep.
    Be sure to backup your data first as my FAQ says:

    And once you are backed up, you can examine other possible issues which it may be running into.
