• Shorten the space allocated to the url container

  Despite the addition of icons by "customize toolbars", that show, during the customization, several of the addition of icons disappear when 'done '. I removed the container from the research, but it made no difference. I changed the length of the container url (which extends to the space reserved for the two containers when you remove the container of research) by adding a line in the userChrome.css file. The url container was resized to the 600px I put but the space previously allocated for the two containers (url and search) remained unchanged, pushing the addition of icons on the screen and leaving a large empty space to the right of the container url. Anyone know how to reduce the space allocated for containers of url and search which allows visualization of the addition of icons?

  Have solved! Or, at least, the problem. Whenever the bookmark icon is included it seems to affect the behavior of other icons as well as do not display itself (the bookmark icon). By not including not not the bookmark icon all right.

  I tried the 10px width max and min of hand and side of a median, but reset if max and min are the same value. Performed as expected in both cases. Besides the values min made no difference. Activate the 8 modules and plug-ins 19. All work normally.

  Back to normal by using the Favorites menu when I want to bookmark a page.

  Thanks for the comments.

• Not able to copy the url of the mail in Mail 10.0

  Summary: Ability to copy the url from an email in Apple Mail lost since the upgrade?

  Hello

  Sometimes I copy the url from an email in Apple Mail in an event in the calendar to find emails that I need quickly at a meeting. I then simply click on the link in my calendar of events a be returned directly to the email in Apple Mail.

  However, the ability to copy the url from an email in Apple Mail seems to be lost since the upgrade. Anyone with the same problem or solution?

  Best regards

  I can provide a workaround solution. Use Wunderlist. It's free. Once you have validated your email, you can forward the email to me@wunderlist and a new task will be added with the attached email.

  Select this option to add items Wunderlist calendar Wunderlist Preferences > accounts.

  

  I even tried dragging an email on the desktop and choose to share. Calendar was not an option.

• AppleScript to create the thumbnail of the file selected with hyperlink to the URL of the file

  Hello

  I need an AppleScript script to copy to the Clipboard a thumbnail of a selected file (s. picture 1 below) with a hyperlink to the URL of the selected file.

  I have a script that allows me to get the URL of the file and copy it to the Clipboard. But then I have to paste the URL into my Document, back to the finder, make a screenshot of the thumbnail of the file, paste this screenshot and enter the URL (manually copy) of the file (choose the context menu of the image) (s. image 2 below):

  

  Is there a way to automate this?

  I could do the screenshot manually, this is actually no problem, but then I would need to attribute this screenshot on a Clipboard 1, go back and get the URL of the file and attribute it to Clipboard 2 and then go to my document and paste Clipboard 1 first, chose the menu popup "hyperlink" and the Clipboard paste 2.

  I would be grateful for the help!

  (I am a high school language teacher, and it is a task repetitive Daylilies)

  Kind regards

  Kai - Uwe,

  OpenOffice or LibreOffice aren't outwardly scriptable with AppleScript or Automator, as to exclude these two applications that support. They are inwardly Python scriptable via their respective SDK.

  I became aware of a solution of AppleScript that invites for the input file, then uses a custom (port) application that uses QuickLook to generate an image thumbnail jpg to your specified output destination. I added a line of AppleScript that sends the URL of the file to the Clipboard.

  After running the script, I can paste the URL of the document in LibreOffice and follow by drag and drop the jpg thumbnail afterwards.

  

  Do you want me to post the directions for this solution. In its current form, it is not written for processing batch.

• How can I change the new behavior of the location of the drop-down menu on the subject which the url comes first?

  Since the upgrade to FF43, the address bar behaves differently. When I type a letter, URL that contains this letter. FF42 the first result would be any url, I visited the most, that contains this letter in its url. Now in FF43, it's always a url that starts with the letter I typed. Often, these are not the same. I now constantly, click on the wrong entry because I'm so used to everything fast click on the first person by habit.

  If the url of a site starts with the letter I typed and is also the site that I visit most, it now serves as the results! For example, if I type the letter H, my first result is: 'visit hardocp.com', and directly below there is an entry: "www.hardocp.com. This result of 'Visit hardocp.com'everything is new behavior that I want to turn off.

  Also, the deletion of an entry in the address bar does not seem to work (one that appears first, still and always starts with: 'Visit [url]'). I pointed out the entry and press DELETE on my keyboard and it disappears. I then my url most visited my first new result. But when I can cool off and come back on the address bar and type a letter, the entrance is back! It's infuriating.

  How can I go about fixing this?

  This is a new feature in Firefox 43. To turn it off to do this:

  1. Go about: config in Firefox
  2. Click on the I'll be careful button
  3. Locate the Boolean browser.urlbar.unifiedcomplete
  4. Change the false value

  Note: You may need to restart Firefox for the changes to take effect.

• How to: Disable the new 'Visit what you type' in the url drop-down list. FF 43

  So with the update of FF 43 Mozilla is still destroying my workflow. While browsing I have I'll especially out of muscle memory. And the new updated through upward in the top position most of the url drop-down the search with the option. I disabled that within 5 minutes but now instead of it's me give "visit"url what ever I can partially be hit". I wish that this new item disabled and can't seem to find an option for her.

  I never understood why the url bar allowed for searching the Web when there is already a dedicated search bar.

  You can set this pref to false on the topic: config page.

  • Browser.urlbar.unifiedcomplete = false

  You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
  You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.

  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/about:config

  Location drop-down menu bar may show items from the history, as well as pages of a bookmark and sites currently open in tabs.
  You can define what suggestions to show when you enter a URL in the address bar in "Options/Preferences > privacy".

  • Tools > Options > privacy > address bar: when you use the location bar, suggest:
    History
    Bookmarks
    Open tabs
  • choice of browser.urlbar.suggest.history.onlyTyped must be modified directly through the pref
  • choice of browser.urlbar.Suggest.Searches is present in Firefox 43 + as 'See the search in the location bar results suggestions' in "Options/Preferences > Search" in the search parameters

• Suggestion of domain in the URL bar

  This new feature of the 43 version, as shown in the image, is not very useful for me, because I am more often than not visit a page on a site, instead of the domain of the site itself. Whereas before I would just have to type a letter and press ENTER, I must now hit the down arrow and click on enter. I know this isn't a lot of work, but these things annoy me. Is there a topic: config to get rid of this new behavior change?

  Hmm, interesting. The first item on the list, which for me is preselected, seems to provide information on what will happen if you press enter or click the Go button. For example, if you have the URL bar auto-complete enabled (which is the default value), a corresponding site is displayed. If you disable the feature AutoFill, you could get an indication that will search in Firefox for the characters you typed. I have attached the screenshots contrast for reference.

  I think that if you want to use an item in the list, you must always press the arrow pointing to the same number of times as before.

  If you do not want this visual cue, it can be removed by disabling a preference, but this preference may have other important aspects that would be also disabled, so be on the lookout for unexpected changes in the behavior of the bar, and let us know there are problems.

  (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press enter/return. Click on the button promising to be careful.

  (2) in the search above the list box, type or paste URLB and make a pause so that the list is filtered

  (3) double-click the preference browser.urlbar.unifiedcomplete to true to false

  Who help me?

  Alternatively, you can probably use a custom style rule to hide the explanatory entry, but I have not dug into that yet.

  Can I use the original iPad Air 2 charger to charge my iPhone 6 Plus? It shortens the life of the battery of the phone?

  Yes, you can. No, it won't. Apple sells this as compatible with the iPad and iPhone adapter.

  And the phone does a little faster than with the phone adapter.

• How to select only the URLS in the same page

  I'm used to be able to select only the URL with right click of the entire page. After reinstalling Firefox, I can't use this feature more. Please let me know what kind of add-on, I need to have. Thank you

  I looked in the Wayback Machine for an older version of this page. He said:

  Multi links allows you to open, copy or favorite of several links at the same time rather than having to do them all individually.
  
  To open, links copy or bookmark, you simply right-click and do to drag a rectangle around the links to the desire to act. When you release the right mouse button, you will open/copy/bookmark these links.

  Note: The Wayback Machine does not cache downloads real extension due to the limitations of robots.txt on the site of modules.

  One of these current extensions could be partial replacement:

  • Copy the URL Expert

  I have not tried any of them myself.

• I type kickass.to and it removes the url and remains on the current page.

  So, I've heard of Mozilla blocklist. Normally, I can choose to ignore a warning and connect anyway, but for this particular site, Mozilla seems to know what's best for me in not letting me even enter in the url. That is what it is?

• Firefox continues to change the url that I entered

  I've updated a Web site. When I paste the url in Firefox it keeps changing and display a different page.

  The one I want is http://megalithmovers.org/blog-2015-10-24.htm
  Firefox continues to change it to http://megalithmovers.org/blog-2015-01-24.htm
  The two pages are valid (they have the date in the url as YYYY-MM-DD)
  I know that the url is valid, that I stuck in other browsers. Somewhere FF has cached the page in January. Being too smart for that is good, it's settled I've mistyped the url and displays this page, not the one October.
  I deleted all the history of this site, but that makes no difference.

  Please don't tell me to restore the FF default settings - I'll have to re - install all Addons then.
