How come when every time i open ff i have the same 2 tabs instead of the one I choosed in my options

'''''texte en gras'''''
in "option internet" & "general" & i chose "new tab" for my home page, but every time i open firefox i have two tabs that loads, one is the tab i asked for, but another one creep in there, it is an old web page where i downloaded something from there after installing firefox, i don't know if it is because i went to that site right after dowloading firefox 6.0 it is like the web page stuck there with my home page and i tried everything but nothing works...
please forgive my english, i am not bilingual yet...thank you

Another user had a second tab opening and it was caused by one of his extensions.
You can check for nonessential or unrecognized extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable.
Usually a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the Add-ons page and click one of the links as the last step.
Does that get rid of the extra tab?

  • How come now every time i throw something into the recycle bin it asks for my password and when I do it doesn't show in my bin help please!

    How come now every time i throw something into the recycle bin it asks for my password and when I do it doesn't show in my bin help please!

    You're throwing away files that either don't belong to you or are in a folder that doesn't belong to you. Since your user account has Administrator privileges, it just ask you for authentication, else it would forbid the operation.
    To better understand the concept, select one of your files from your home directory and press Control-I. In the info window, check the Sharing & Permissions section at the bottom. Do the same with one of the files that asks for the password.

  • For some strange reason the songs in my library are multiplying. For example, I really only have 4,000 songs but every time I open itunes I have 6,8,10,000 songs! Any one else have this problem.  How do I stop that from happening?

    For some strange reason the songs in my library are multiplying. For example, I really only have 4,000 songs but every time I open itunes I have 6,8,10,000 songs! Any one else have this problem.  How do I stop that from happening?  I keep having to delete my library!

    This "original file cannot be found" thing happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
    Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

  • How come when I try to open an app on my phone does the screen just blink and the app not open?

    How come when I try to open an app on my phone does the screen just blink and the app not open?

    Some apps crash. If they do, try this, in order.
    1. Double click your home button and put your finger on any app and hold for a second. Then delete that app. You're not deleting the app from your phone, so don't worry. Then try opening the app again.
    2. If that doesn't work, hold your sleep+home buttons for 10 seconds and don't let go. Ignore the power off message. Then try again.
    3. If that doesn't work, delete the app and re-download it. (This will work most of the time)
    4. If that doesn't work, download the app on iTunes on your computer and sync it from there.
    5. If that doesn't work, wait for an update by the developers.

  • Every time i open excel i have to add Excel addin manually

    Hi All,
    Every time i open excel i have to add Excel addin manually is this a know issue.
    Excel Addin 11.1.1.2
    OS : Windows Vista 64 bit
    Office 2007 32 bit
    Regards,
    Mink

    I'm guessing you did an uninstall, right?
    If not, please try it. If so, take a look at the penultimate post in this thread: http://www.network54.com/Forum/58296/thread/1214384130/Disabling+Excel+Add-in+from+Excel+Startup. It will show you the registry settings for 11x add-in. I would make sure those were gone as well.
    Then the old reinstall game under an admin id.
    And this is so stupid, it probably doesn't bear mentioning, but be sure that no instances of EXCEL.EXE are running when you do all of the above.
    Regards,
    Cameron Lackpour

  • Every time I open iTunes I have to agree to the licence . . . . and MORE!

    Windows 7 64 bit  /  iTunes 11.0.4.4
    Every time I open iTunes, I have to perform the following repetitive steps;
    -Accept the license agreement
    -Click Agree on the Welcome Screen
    -Decline the default player offer even though I have checked the "do not show" box
    -Select "Show Menu Bar"
    -Select "Show Side Bar"
    This is getting real tiresome. Help in resolving this issue appreciated - IM

    I found the solution and copy/pasted the stept to take. I got it from another subject related to the problem on this thread and it works for me.

    Re: 'iTunes Software Licence Agreement' every time I open iTunes 
    Feb 12, 2010 6:11 PM (in response to EVVE)
    yep, let's investigate the preference files possibility. First, quit iTunes and log back into your usual user account. Next, we'll have to set your PC up to view hidden files and folders. From the Start menu, click Open.
    In the Organize menu, click Folder and Search Options.
    Click the View tab.
    In the "Advanced settings" pane under "Hidden files and folders" make sure that the "Show hidden files and folders" option is selected.
    Click OK. Now, in Computer, open "Local Disk C:".
    Open the "Users" folder.
    Open the folder with the name of your usual user account.
    Open the "AppData" folder.
    Open the "Local" folder.
    Open the "Apple Computer" folder. Drag the "iTunes" folder you see in there out onto the Desktop. Now launch iTunes. (This will cause iTunes to rebuild that set of preference files.) *The license agreement will appear for you again.* (That is expected behavior when that particular set of preference files is being rebuilt.)
    Cheers all

  • How come when I use a Internet that I have already used it doesn't automatically connect

    How come when I use an Internet that I have already used it doesn't automatically connect?

    Does the iPod connect to other networks?
    Does the iPod see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iPod connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

    - Restore from backup. See:

  • I photo comes up every time I open my mac.  I don't really like this.  I do not want an automatic start, I want to open in manually.  How do I rectify this?  Thank you

    Every time I open my Mac, I photo comes up automatically, I do not want this..... I want to open it manually.  Any suggestions

    Could be many things
    Some details on your system would help
    Some possible things - in the system preferences iPhoto oculd be set as a start up program
    If you click and hold on iPhoto inthe dock chect to see if it is set as a start up item
    Do you have any FAT formatted storage devices on your system (if you do they will cause iPhoto to launch - to stop in the iPhoto preferences set the action when a camera is connected to do nothing)
