I have a browser setting change notice that comes up every time I open Firefox. No matter what I click on it will not go away. How do I get rid of it?

My choices are: keep my current settings or I am aware of this change and approve it. If I pick either one and say "yes" it will not go away. If I click on the close "x" it will not go away either.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

  • How do I remove the "Restore Session" page that comes up every time I open Firefox, Even by quitting it properly?

    Ever since I upgraded to v20 of Firefox a problem has occurred where I will close Firefox properly (close browser and then quit application as I am on a Mac) but when I open it again I will get a message. This message is "Oh this is embarrassing..." and try to get me to reopen my tabs I had before. This will also happen if I have just one tab open and then close it. I was wondering if there is a way to fix it!

    Hi susiqw, it's hard to see when the text is all written as a single sentence, but the steps are:
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the search box in that tab, type or paste '''sessions''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Double-click '''browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash''' to toggle its value from true to false.

    #Go to '''Tools '''| '''Options '''| '''General'''.
    #Make sure it says "''Show My Homepage''" in the first dropdown menu.

  • Since upgrading to Firefox 5, I can no longer browse for attachments in AOL Webmail, and every time I open Firefox, it asks me if Mozilla can make changes to my hard drive. I've gone back to Internet Explorer.

    I upgraded to the latest version of Mozilla Firefox and ever since then, every time I open Firefox it asks me if I want to allow Mozilla to make changes to my hard drive. I have to answer "Yes" or else it won't open Firefox. Then when I open my AOL Webmail and try to browse for an attachment, it freezes up the browser window and I have to open the Task Manager to close Firefox. I have now gone back to Internet Explorer which does not have either one of these problems.

    Maybe just corrupted Disk Utility preferences ...
    Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following:
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.DiskUtility.plist
    Click Go then move the com.apple.DiskUtility.plist file to the Trash.
    Restart your Mac then try creating a .dmg file.

  • How do I get rid of an adobe textbox that shows up every time I open Firefox?

    Adobe  installed an update, I believe to my flashplayer and when it was  finished, every time I opened my google page(Mozilla) I got a big box that said  Adobe installer. There was no way to remove it so I went to add/delete  programs and found the installer program and deleted it. Now instead of  the Adobe installer box, I get a text box that says that the following  path cannot be found.  C\Documents+and+Settings\user\Application+Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profil  es\3oq0kps1default\extensions\{E2883E8F-472F-4fb0-9522-AC9BF3716A7}\ch  rome\content\getPlusPlus_Adobe_reg.exe
    This happens every  time I open Mozilla. I get rid of the box by either hitting "OK" or the X  at the upper right hand corner of the text box. Then the box goes away  and Google opens.
    I want to get ride of this box.  How do I do it.
    Thank you.

    For future Flash Player updates, to get around that download manager, download the installer directly from http://http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html

  • How do I block a popup window that I have allowed to open on Firefox once? I now have the popup blocker set to block all sites, but the popup still opens every time I open Firefox or open (sometimes) a new tab.

    How do I block a popup? I allowed this popup to open once. Now I have set the popup blocker to block all sites but this popup still opens every time I open Firefox and sometimes (usually) when I open a new tab.
    I Have stopped and restarted Firefox multiple times.
    I have rebooted the computer.
    I have set the tools/options/content/block pop-up windows/exceptions to block all sites (no exceptions).
    I have no other issues with Firefox.
    I have Adblock plus (with (1) subscription) installed
    I am currently using Firefox version 4.0 on Windows7 Ultimate.

    Just to address the last point: check your History menu to see whether you have the Restore Previous Session option and use that if you can. If that is grayed out or doesn't restore everything, check the Recently Closed Windows and Recently Closed Tabs lists for other pages.
    The unwanted window may be generated by an add-on. Try disabling ALL nonessential or unrecognized extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
    * Ctrl+Shift+a
    * "3-bar" menu 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 tab and click one of the links as the last step.
    Any improvement?
    Here are some other things to check:
    (1) user.js file that changes Firefox startup behavior and overrides your preferences. This article describes how to track that down and delete it if you have one: [[How to fix preferences that won't save]].
    (2) Possible hijacked shortcut. Check the "target" of the desktop icon you use to start Firefox to see whether it lists the unwanted page. To do that:
    right-click the icon > Properties > Shortcut tab
    For 64-bit Windows 7, the Target should be no more and no less than this:
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
    (3) Possible undisclosed bundle items. If you have installed any free software recently, check your Windows Control Panel, Uninstall a program for surprises. If you click the "Installed on" column head to group by date, it is easier to spot bundled junk. Remove everything suspicious or unrecognized.
    (4) Supplemental clean up scans. Our support article lists tools other Firefox users have found helpful: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]].
    Hopefully that cures it.

    Take a look at Apple's document for authorizations -> iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization.
    You can deauthorize all computers from iTunes. All you have to do is click iTunes Store, click your account name in the upper right corner of iTunes, then deauthorize all.

  • Every time I open Firefox a program that has somehow attached itself to the browser opens and interferes with my searches.

    There is a program that has attached itself to my Firefox browser. Every time I open Firefox to search the internet this program is using pop-ups, to the extent that it completely interferes with my searches.

    hello Bill851, if you notice signs of malware on your system please try these steps:
    # [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems|reset firefox]] (this will keep your bookmarks and passwords)
    # afterwards go to firefox > addons > extensions and in case there are still extensions listed there, disable them.
    # finally run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] and [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner] to make sure that adware isn't present in other places of your system as well.

  • I have an ancient laptop (from 2005) that has my entire music library. This laptop barely works and some keys don't type anymore. How can I get all this music transferred to another computer, or available to me on the cloud?

    I have an ancient laptop (from 2005) that has my entire music library. This laptop barely works and some keys don't type anymore. How can I get all this music transferred to another computer, or available to me on the cloud?

    No... do not move programs.
    About the iTunes library files
    Your iTunes library files track the media you add to iTunes, how you've organized it, and other information such as playlists. By default, these two files are in your iTunes folder:
    Mac OS X: /Users/username/Music/iTunes/
    Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\
    Windows Vista: C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes\
    Windows 7: C:\Users\username\My Music\iTunes\
    Windows 8: C:\Users\username\My Music\iTunes\

    Tap Settings > iTunes & App Store
    Tap the Apple ID then tap Sign Out then sign in with your Apple ID.
    Perhaps you have more than one user account on your laptop and iTunes content was synced using another Apple ID from that account.
