Since installing 4.0.1 I can't right click on the Icon in my task bar and have Firefox give me the option of "close and save" the tabs. Only let's me know I'm about to close multiple tabs. How do I get "save and close" back?

Before installing 4.0.1 I could right click on the Firefox icon on my computer's taskbar and hit close window. It would then give me the option to "save tabs and quit" or "close all tabs."
Now it just alerts me that I'll be closing multiple tabs.
It was convenient to be able to close Firefox and open it with all of the tabs in place. There is nothing more irritating than having multiple tabs lost because your computer did an update overnight and restarted. Also it was helpful when you wanted to run a tun-up or cleaner that asked you close out of your browser for optimum result's.
How do I get "save and quit" back?
Thanks

Firefox now always stores the old session, and you can access it by going to the History menu and selecting "Restore Previous Session"
If you want Firefox to display the message to save the session, it can be turned back on by changing some preferences.
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
# Locate the preference '''browser.tabs.warnOnClose''', if its value is set to '''false''', double-click on it to change its value to '''true'''
# Repeat this for these 3 preferences '''browser.warnOnQuit''', '''browser.warnOnRestart''' and '''browser.showQuitWarning'''
If you always open the last set of tabs, an alternative approach is this:
# Click the orange Firefox button, then select options to open the options window
# Go to the General panel
# Change the setting "When Firefox starts" to "Show my windows and tabs from last time"

  • Since installing FF 5.0, I can't leave blog comments on Fox News

    since installing FF 5.0, I can't leave blog comments on Fox News. The blog section looks like it is trying to load, but doesn't.

    firefox, add ons, plugins are all up to date. FYI I can log onto MSIE and there is no problem blogging on Foxnews. I also ran with add ons disabled and that did not help. Logically it appears the problem is with Firefox, since I update to 5.0.1.

    i connected my iphone 5 to my computer for the first time since i got it and it didnt give me any option and just started to restore it from my iphone 4s. ive now lost all my pictures that were on it. Is there a way i can get them back as i did not want it to restore my old phone anyway! i also had my hone set up to the cloud and it didnt work! PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME

    Can you try to use another computer?
    If this does not work, visit an Apple Store or an Authorized Apple Service Provider next to your place, and show them the phone, maybe they can restore it before you'll have to get it serviced.
    Did you try to put it in recovery mode?

  • I was 3-4 updates behind on ipad. Did back-up, installed update to ipad now how do I get my purchased apps back on my ipad?

    I was 3-4 updates behind on ipad. Did back-up, installed update to ipad now how do I get my purchased apps back on my ipad? I assume they didn't back up to cloud since that came with this update. I can see all my purchased apps but no way to transfer them back to my ipad from whereever they are.  Wish itunes was more user friendly.  Help please.

    If you are running iTunes 11 and if you didn't figure this out yet, when you launch iTunes - go to View>Show Sidebar from the menu at the top of the screen. Once you can see the sidebar, iTunes looks so much more familiar.
    The "new look" iTunes doesn't appeal all that much to me, I just want the functionality that I have always had. It's still there, its just been hidden with a lot of fluff and visual wow that I really don't care about .... Just my opinion.

  • Photoshop CC 14.2 can't right click scale boxes to change units

    Since the 14.2 update I can't right click the scale boxes when I wan to resize an object to change the units for example from % to px.
    Using win 8 64bit here.
    Anyone can confirme this bug? Everything was working before the update.

    John, I know that you are upset with that change dating from CS4. But AFAIK, it is possible to write an action that goes around the problem. Very, very few users change those two settings, you can add a warning about it. You repeat it so often it sounds like a core function of Photoshop everyone uses is broken.
    In this very case, I would have liked to get a prompt similar to the one we get on a mac trying to use CMD+H that is used by the system, but is an historical shortcut in Ps.
    The only way to create actions that will always work correctly isi to take advantage of the bugs in the implementation of the options. If there is a active selection the option ADD MASKS be DEFAULT  has no effect there will always be a MASK added.  And If you record adding adjustment layer using the Layer menu and check clip the previous layer in the new adjustment layer dialog the adjust layer will always be clipped.  Knowing about the faults in the implementation of the option one can edit all old action and re-record the ADD adjustment layers steps to always have an active selection and Clip then configure the Clipped and  masked adjustment the way the want.  New Actions need to be recorded  to take advantage of the faults also.  However if Adobe fixes the faults in the implementation of the option one again actions will be broken.  The two options should be removed. Thankfully if the option are left at their default setting Photoshop works as designed.  Action will play back correctly.  Yes I repeat it often and will. Adobe should fix bugs. Adobe should also not code wrong behavior for the ESC key either.   Adobe is shooting Photoshop in the foot. Sometimes I thinf Adobe has a death wish...

  • Desktop - Icons Disappeared, Can't Right-Click

    Hello,
    I installed Leopard about a week ago (installed right over; not fresh install) onto my MacBook Pro, and everything was working fine until yesterday: all the icons on my Desktop (Macintosh HD, various folders and documents) disappeared, and I can't right-click/control-click the Desktop. I can still access the Macintosh HD and other files and folders through Finder, I just can't seem to get them to show up on the Desktop anymore. I'm fairly new to Macs in general, so I don't know if this is a feature that I accidently turned on or is this a bug or..?
    Any ideas? Has this happened to anyone else?
    Regards,
    Derek

    I ran into the same thing, did an upgrade on my MBP, a week later my desktop icons disappeared. I ended up downloading the trial version of Cocktail (http://www.maintain.se/cocktail/index.php). Under Ineterface-->Finder-->"Hide the desktop" was checked. I must have accidentally done this but did not know how to undo it. Hope this helps.

  • Can't right-click in eyeglass view with IE 7

    When using the eyeglass icon to view topics in my project, I
    used to right-click the mouse and select Back to navigate between
    various links. Since IE 7 was installed on my computer, when I am
    in that view and right-click the mouse, nothing happens. Any
    suggestions?

    I couldn't say why RoboHelp is behaving this way for you, I
    have IE 7 (using RH X5) and can still right-click and choose Back.
    You should also be able to just hit the Backspace key to navigate
    backwards as well.

  • Ever since the latest update, my task bar (if it's called that - it's the one with "file,edit,view, etc") will "grey out" and I won't be able to type into any websites I visit. Only way to fix:either restart Firefox or reduce the window and open it again.

Only way I can proceed is if either restart Firefox (very annoying) or reduce the window and open it again. Please help!

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Can't right click on my desktop. Files/Folders are also disappeared

    The subject explains pretty much the situation.
    The last days, I can't right click on my dekstop. Right click works on any other icon/app etc of course.  At the same time, files/folders that I have in desktop, and I can see them through finder, are not displayed. However, if I login with the guest account, the problem is not reproduced.
    Any ideas?
    (I have a new macbook pro 13 retina display, running 10.9.1)

    Sorry for the inconvenience.
    It seems that there was a problem/miss configuration with an external program I installed (path finder).

    Hi uneleashurself and thanks for your answer.
    Forgive my language but getting to talk to the Safaricom customer service is a real pain in the **bleep** - if you ever get to talk to them, that is.
    I've never got an answer to my phone calls in three years and their customer assistans in the shops usually have no clue about whatever it is you're asking them.
    I talked to a few of them in a couple of different Safaricom shops and they didn't know what I was talking about.
    Still, I believe Safaricom is not the problem as other people I know who have a BlackBerry on Safaricom haven't experienced this problem.

  • Downloaded new version yesterday and can't right click open in new tab bookmarks now...

    Since I downloaded ner version yesterday, I can't right click on a bookmark and open in new tab like I could before. What's up with that?

    I went to view > column browser > and artists, group compilations and use album artists are all checked.
    Then I go to search and pull together an album compilation example "VH1 Top 100" highlight them all, click get info, I have "various artists" under "album artists" under "album" is "VH1 Top 100" and mark them as compilations. Go back to my album listing grid with artwork and they are all still scattered out. I must be leaving something out, but they were fine before I downloaded new itunes ?
    Thanks again for help.
