Hi,
When i close (red cross not actually quit) safari with a window or number of windows open when i reopen it the resume feature (to continue browsing the windows i left open) doesn't seem to be working and it opens a brand new window.
Has anyone else had this problem?
regards.
Hello Jam£s,
It sounds like you are closing the Safari window with the red close button before you quit Safari. When Safari is quit and reopened it opens the windows that were active (open) when it was quit.
Automatically re-open windows, apps, and documents on your Mac - Apple-kundestøtte
For example, when you quit Safari, any webpages you're viewing are fully restored the next time you open Safari.
By closing the window before you quit Safari you are telling Safari not to automatically open it on relaunch. Leave the windows open instead when you quit Safari.
Note there are other ways to get to previously opened sites.
Safari 8 (Yosemite): Revisit webpages
- See pages you visited in this window or tab: Click the Back button
or Forward button
in the toolbar. If you have a trackpad or mouse that supports gestures, swipe left or right to move through your history
in the toolbar, then click Reading List.
Best,
Nubz
Hi Nubz,
Thank you for your reply.
I'm sure in the past pressing the red close button didn't seem to matter...If i would close with the red close button and reopen safari it would still resume where i left it. For instance this works in iPhoto...if I'm looking at an event or editing a picture and close with the red close button then reopen iPhoto it resumes where i left it.
regards
Hi Nubz,
I have also just checked this in number of other apps like mail and itunes using the red close button to exit and when i reopen the app it resumes where i left off i.e. in a particular email or playlist etc.

Hello James
Didi you ever got to solve that issue,? I'm having the exact same one, and nobody seems to answer in the community.
If you did, please show me how, its really annoying
H,
no I haven't found any way to resolve the issue, I hoped in recent updates it might sort itself out but hasn't. In all other apps such as iTunes, photos (new photo app), iPhoto, mail, it always resumes but safari never works.
