Hello!
When i put my safari browser in fullscreen mode (Mountain Lion) and shut down the program it doesn't stay in fullscreen mode when i start the program again. It's just in windowed mode. I tryed to reinstall it but with no effect... Someone who has a solution?

Have you got Safari set as your home page? If not, set up a Safari screen as you would like to see it each time you open. Go to Safari preferences > check the home page url is the same as the page you set up (it will be in yellow) > click on 'set to current page' and from then onwards, that will be the page and the size of page that will load for you.
This didn't realy helped me, I have now a "home page" and has set the setting to open to the home page when i open a new window.
Its only fullsize window now, not fullscreen.

The screen you now have should be that that you set as your home page.
Try again; create the kind of screen you want to open with, go to preferences, click on 'set to current page' then quit Safari.
When you re-launch Safari it should open on the page you set it to.
It doesn't work.
This is how i want it every time when i start safari. Fullscreen mode:
This is how it starts now.. (WRONG windowed mode)
And this is my settings
Open safari: New window
Open new window with: Website
Open new Tab with: Top sites
Startsite: http://www.feber.se

Sorry to read that. I do not have 10 8 Mountain Lion so it may differ, but my settings are ...
Open with .... New Window
Open new window with .... Home page.
New tabs open with .... Home page
Home page .... In my case Safari BBC. Which I had set the page to.
(I am assuming Home page for me equals Start page for you).
Back up all data.
Triple-click the line below to select it:
~/Library/Saved Application State/com.apple.Safari.savedState
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu. A Finder window should open with an item selected. Quit the application if it's running. Move the selected item to the Trash. Test.
Go to 'System Preferences - General' and uncheck 'Close windows when quitting an application'.
That'll do the trick, but remember you have to quit safari with the web pages loaded in full screen from last session.
Safari doesn't stay in fullscreen when i close Safari and start it again.
