Mac 101: Restore a Safari window

Hey this is why I was using Firefox more, because I often open multiple tabs and don't get to them all before needing to go do something else.

Both are about the same for me but I wanted to be able to do both. That restore windows function will come in handy too, because I've occasionally closed off a whole window accidentally.

Thanks TUAW

Stand (http://hetima.com/safari/stand-e.htmlhttp://hetima.com/safari/stand-e.html) will restore a previous set of tabs on re-opening Safari.

The restore closed tab menu item is great, but isn't there a keyboard shortcut for it?

I'm a Firefox user so I'm missing good old Apple+Shift+T, and also Apple+1/2/3/4/5 to switch between tabs.

Someone should make a Safari plugin to mimic these shortcuts!

for those of you who only need the tab/window management features of Saft, or are too cheap to pay for it, i recommend Stand (freeware). i've been using it for a while now and it works pretty well. every session begins with a check box to select the tabs you want to reload, or combine them all into one window if you had several open.

one simple thing i'd like to see in Safari (or Stand) though, is this simple command: "Undo Close Tab".

Just use Saft. The problem with this in Safari is that it doesn't restore the window or tab history which makes it pretty useless to me. If it did that then I'd get rid of Saft as that is pretty much the only reason I use it.

OmniWeb has had this functionality for a while; nice to see it in Safari.

I wish it would restore the window history when you reopen a window.

does anyone know how to have safari open up a certain webpage every time you open up a new tab? I hate how it always opens up blank?

Shift-T when using Firefox. Just had to use it myself, when I typed out an entire article, and accidentally closed the wrong tab. Freaked out, hit Shift-T, and it had saved everything in the page. Beautiful.

Someone pointed this out to me recently, and it's nice and all, but holy crap, why can't you just restore the tab set from your previous session automatically? At least make it an option. Every other browser has had this for ages. I simply want my browser to return to the exact state it was in when I closed it. I have to imagine this is a very common desire amongst users.

Anyone know if this restores the history of each tab as well? That feature in Firefox is great.

It seems so odd to me that they have these features but not an "open last closed tab" function, which is what i always used most in firefox. Is there some other way that you're supposed to open the last closed tab other than finding the page you were at in the history?
