"restart to safari" mode...

[sissified84]

I heard a lot about this - being able to log in to "only Safari" from the lock screen - much like Chrome. I can't figure it out. Did it make the final cut? I have Lion installed, but don't see any mention of this anywhere. Any ideas?

Thanks!

I noticed that I didn't post it in the "Lion" forum so I re-posted it here... I was just trying to delete the other - thanks for pointing it out. :/

Restart to Safari mode

Same here. I really do want to give "restart to Safari" option a try instead of the guest mode, but I can't see it anywhere. My screen lock only shows my own account and sleep, shut down, etc.

I thought maybe "restart to Safari" works only on laptops, but I couldn't confirm this anywhere.

I'm on a 27'' iMac and installed Lion today.

Thanks a lot.

I guess it might have something to do with this "Find My Mac" feature, which I can't seem to get a hold of. I guess it works with iCloud, and that might be why.

i think you need to make a guest account to do it
