I have looked in Preferences but don't see any such option. I know that once I am in a session that I can go to View->Exit Full Screen, but I want the default when I open a session to not be full screen. Would appreciate any and all help.
Safari-OTHER
When launched, it should resume whatever mode it was in when it quit. Does that not happen?
It's hit or miss. For example, when I launched into this discussion from e-mail, I guess Safari remembered that the last time I was at discussions.apple.com, I was NOT in full screen mode, so that's how it opened.
However, yesterday when I was opening fresh sessions, they were in full screen mode and I had to exit each time.
Quit Safari while holding down the option key. Relaunch. Your home page, or an empty window, should open, depending on your preferences.
If in full-screen mode, exit. If not in full-screen mode, enter. Quit and relaunch without holding any keys. You should get the same window in the same state as when you quit. Does that happen?
Thanks for your help Linc. I will save your note, since now that I have the solution, I of course can't make the problem happen again - lol.
How can I get Safari to default to NOT be in full screen mode?
