How to launch an iOS simulator with safari opened using a single command?

I am looking for a solution to launch the iOS simulator from command line with Safari launched by default. Launching the simulator from command line is easy. So is the launching of safari. But I want (rather need) to do this in a single command line statement which will be executed from some third party tool. Is there a possible way to do this?

I have xCode 6.0 installed with me on OSX version 10.9.4. Any help or guideline is highly appreciated. For now, I am starting the simulator using xcrun instruments -w "iPhone 6 (8.1 Simulator)"

But I am not able to figure out if we can pass extra arguments to this statement so that it launches safari as well.

How to completely uninstall iCloud?

I know how to disable iCloud, but I want to completely remove the possibility of using the service from my Mac for security reasons. I tried to delete the related files, but I do not have permission.

How do I download Yosemite on my imac?

I have an iMac (newer than 2007),and I need to run this year's version of Turbo Tax. I am getting a message indicating that my current OS X, which is 10.6.8, is not sufficient to run this year's Turbo Tax (premier version).

I have tried to download Yosemite and have been unsuccessful. I assume that once I download a new OS, that it will appear in place of the 10.6.8 when I click on the Apple icon at the top left side of my screen and ten click on about this mac. How can I download Yosemite?

Logitech Type+ flashing blue; iPad Air 2 won't wake

When I leave my iPad Air 2 for some 5 minutes and return, my asleep iPad refuses to wake when I press the power button. I press the power button on my keyboard case (Logitech Type+) and the little light on it flashes blue. As of writing this has happened 3 times today and right now it just isn't waking. Any ideas?

Why do duplicates keep showing up in my address book?

I maintain a very clean address book (OSX), complete with photos and profile info of my contacts. Contacts are on iCloud and Exchange.

However, sometimes I'll get an email from a contact and the picture won't show up. In fact, an entirely new email-entry shows up in the address book even if that email is already associated with a contact.

Any advice on how I can make this stop happening? My Contacts is now full of duplicates.
