Safari launches without open window?

Hi folks.
I have upgraded to ML and have an odd issue with Safari. Its in my login items and it launches on startup. BUT now suddenly it does not open a window on startup. I have a set of three sites in a folder which used to be my "startup sites" that would auto load first thing in the morning, but now nothing doing.
I have turned off the RESUME functions because I didnt want a dozen things from the previous day loading and cluttering the new day first up, and thats what seems to have broken the Safari. Is there a way for it to function as before? So that only the login items open and they open completely with windows?
Thanks for any help.

I'm having an issue on All ADOBE reader/flasher player opening window on Mac OSX Lion

I have tons of error when i'm openning Adobe reader/Adober flash player/Adobe application manager. When i went check out the Library/Adobe appiication support, it's missing and i can't get it to open. What are the solution to make this work. Cause i really wanna to download Adobe photoshop trial install and open it, but i keep on getting error all the time. What can i do to resolve this issue on my mac osx Lion 10.7.5 version? Any suggestion?

Could you try switching back to the PPAPI version of the plugin to see if that helps (reversing the steps outlined in the FAQ below)? From what we've learned, this only effects the NPAPI version and the PPAPI version should display fonts correctly.
Enable system Flash Player in Google Chrome | Windows | Mac
We are working with Google to get this fixed asap.
Thanks,

How do I reenable Firefox 11 to download pdf files without opening them? Thank you!

First, I'd just get a blank screen. Then I learned to change 'get info.' window to open Firefox in 32-bit mode. Now, pdfs easily open, but I don't how to just download them (for later viewing) without opening them.

On Mac, use: Firefox > Preferences > Applications<br />
You can set the action to "Always Ask"

I can't use Yahoo messenger (it doesn't open the dialogue window), but in other PCs with older versions of Firefox I don't have problems

I can't use Yahoo messenger (it doesn't open the dialogue window), but in other PCs with older versions of Firefox I don't have problems
As stated earlier even though when I have an incoming message I hear the "Beep" Firefox does not open the dialogue window as it used to do.
Also I am not able to open a new dialogue window or tab by clicking on an online contact of mine.

Can we silently print a PDF file programmatically without opening Adobe Reader using DDE messages

Firefox version 9.0.1 won't open yahoo messenger options in yahoo mail.

Seems there is a problem with yahoo messenger from inside yahoo mail. When I double clicked on one of my contacts the window didn't open. Then I would have to go into messenger options and change small window to tab. Then the tabs would appear. I could go back into options and change back to small window from tab and the small window would appear.
Lately I can't get messenger options to even open. Is this a bug with 9.0.1. I am using Ubuntu 10.10.

Firefox crashes or freezes when Yahoo messenger is open

So I just updated to the most recent version a few days ago, and have been forced to use IE because I can't keep firefox open while Yahoo messenger is open, which always is because I stay on there in case someone needs to contact me. I may just try installing an older version until this problem gets resolved, but was hoping for some input.

I've noticed the crashing increasing with the newer versions. The worst thing is when I'm writing a long email and then go to a page with flash and ff locks up and then crashes. I use IE now for most flash content or mission critical emailing but IE's interface is poorly laid out so I don't like it. I've tried FF with the plugin container and without it and it crashes either way (more often without the container). I use adblock and firebug. I wonder if ppl experiencing this prob are using those plugins too.

Cannot directly open the browser from the icon. "problem loading webpage" and "timed out" are the messages. Access was accomplished by using yahoo messenger and opening my email. if I attempt to open a new page, I recieve the aforementioned warnings.

no link to open access to the internet. I used Yahoo Messenger, clicked on the 'mail icon' and since Firefox is my default it opened and I was able to continue from there. If I try to click File, open New Page, I get the "problem loading webpage" and "connection timed out" messages

changed my homepage to Yahoo. Now Firrefox works but still cannot access ANYTHING 'Google"!

I cannot get the info bar (not the dock) on the top of my screen to permanently appear without my having to put the cursor on top of screen. Then it appears. Don't even know what that is called...above the open window.

How do I get the area above the open window to display information (as in closing that specific window, "Safari File Edit View History, etc.) without having to attempt to put the cursor on it to give me that info? I am not referring to the dock which is at the bottom of my screen. Although,It too, is not visible.
They were both visible before today.
Sorry, but I have no clue as to what this topic should be.

When you do Safari to it's maximum size on the screen (with the two little arrows in the Safari top menu bar on the right), Safari will take the whole screen including the top Apple menubar. In that menubar is the same set of little arrows to bring Safari back to it's previous size (which you can set by moving it's borders), you bring the Apple menubar in sight by moving the mousepointer to the top of the screen, when you do not want to loose that apple menubar, you can set Safari as bog as you can by moving its borders but just until below the apple menubar. Don't touch the little arrows in Safari menubar.

Firefox asks (twice) to save and close tabs, on new open windows without tabs, when i close them.

About one month ago, i started to receive a message box from firefox, asking if i wanted to save and close tabs, on newly open windows (and pop-ups) without any tabs open on them.
And everytime i close the windows without tabs, firefox asks it twice...
I did not made any changes, so i don't know why it started doing this.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

How can I adjust fonts in one window only without affecting other open windows

I like to use a chat program and adjust font size without affecting other open windows

thanks for quick answer but I'm looking to use what you said to affect Only one open window ( chat ). I got an answer to this 1 or 2 years ago using XP but forgot how to do it. I know typing in an url lets me inside the code to change something there choosing yes or no for that function. I forgot the url or particular function.
thanks

Display picture in messages totally pixelated when seeing it with yahoo messenger for windows

Hello,
I'm using messages to chat with my yahoo messenger account at work and yahoo messenger for windows at home.
When I log into Yahoo with messages, my yahoo display picture is updated automatically with the one I have choose in messages.
My problem is that this picture is totally pixelated when you see it on yahoo messenger for windows. It seems that Messages is changing its size.
As the size in Yahoo messenger for windows is bigger it appears pixelated!
If I choose no display picture in messages, the one I have choose with yahoo messenger for windows disappear when I'm logging with it.
Is there a way that messages do not update the display picture each time I'm logging to Yahoo?
I suppose that there is no solution to this problem but I wanted to be sure.
Anyway thanks for your help.

HI,
Thanks for the Path.
This does seem to show all the Recents from the Contacts App > My Card, the Login Pic and the Messages Buddy List pic.
I think in Mountain Lion these were either separate items or the .plist that is in the current place listed the app/location the pic was used.
I have looked at the pictures in the folder (.png and thumbnail .tiffs) and the .plist and it does seem to be all the pics I have used in all three places over the last few months.
The Yahoo account is logged in not through IMAgent that FaceTime and Messages use for other Accounts but from the IMServicePluginAgent.
In Mountain Lion this used to list a Buddy Pic server as well as a straightforward login.
Using Little Snitch I am not seeing that in Mavericks.
Seems you may have to change your Pic on a web page for your Yahoo account.
