Until recently, if I closed Firefox using the "Exit" menu option, it would not trigger the "closing multiple tabs" warning. How do I restore this behavior?

Up until a few weeks ago--I think when I updated to Firefox 23, though it may have been 22--if I enabled "Warn me when closing multiple tabs," the warning would display only if I closed out a window using the X in the upper right-hand corner, but not if I closed the browser down correctly from the menu. Now it's warning me when I use the menu, too. Is there a way to revert this behavior? I only need the warning if I accidentally hit the x for the entire window instead of for a single tab.

You can consider to use this startup setting:
*Tools > Options > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts": "Show my windows and tabs from last time"

  • How Can I deactivate CS3 in a machine where the Deactivate menu option is disabled all of the time?

    We have a CS3 license. We lost the cd with the serial number. We want to deactivate the software in an old machine where it was registered to install it in a new machine, but the Deactivate menu option is disabled all of the time. How can we deactivate the software?

  • Firefox 11 does not warn me when closing multiple tabs. How do I do this?

    (Tools/options/tabs tab/ warn me when closing multiple tabs) How can I get this to work so I can set it once and keep the warning in different sessions.
    (Other replies seem to indicate it has to be done through config for each session)
    Thanks Alf

    Hi AlfLinus,
    You should only have to set it once. Does the actual checkbox disappear when you open a new session? You should look at the article [[Preferences are not saved]]. Firefox might be having trouble writing to your pref.js file.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • I tried to sync some new songs bought from iTunes into my ipod using my laptop, (for the first time).  It would not add the new songs to the ipod.  I tried several times, with same result.  I never had this problem using my desk top computer.

    I also am having a problem with the songs I purchased using the laptop not showing on the desk top itunes, even though it is authorized to do so.  The new songs did show up on the iPad iTunes, however.  Have no idea why.  I thought this happened automatically.

    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.

  • I am trying to access the multiple home page option in 4.01 (XP). The page at Tools/Options/General does not offer any Home Page optons. How can I do this? Thank you.

    I've installed Firefox 4.01. It offer the option to have multiple pages on startup, but the direction to set this found in Firefox Help take me to a that that offers no home page setting option. In this new version in fact, I can find no place to set my home page.

    You will have to contact support by web chat to figure out any such issues.

  • My husband downloaded a newer version of Firefox on my computer and now it does not automatically go online when opened. How do I remedy this?

    I always click "work offline" when I exit anything that I do online. Firefox always opened in the online mode before, but since the newer version was downloaded I now have to manually put it online every time I open it. Even when I click a link in an email.

    Found this item it may help
    OK, I have fixed it here. Here's what I did:
    quit iTunes
    trashed ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iTunes.plist
    started iTunes, and authorised my account
    Worked straight away after that !

    Some gestures have been removed in Firefox 4.
    You can restore the zoom feature by changing the values of the related prefs on the <b>about:config</b> page.
    browser.gesture.pinch.in -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReduce</b>
    browser.gesture.pinch.in.shift -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReset</b>
    browser.gesture.pinch.out -> <b>cmd_fullZoomEnlarge</b>
    browser.gesture.pinch.out.shift -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReset</b>
    browser.gesture.pinch.latched -> <b>false</b>
    To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />
    You can use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a pref more easily.

    Exactly what version of iTunes are you running? And DON'T say 'the latest version'... CHECK the version number. You need to be running 11.1 or higher.

    Shoeb, hi.
    Thanks for replying and apologies for my tardiness in responding. I have just completed a re-creation of my web page using CSS/HTML rather than XML/XSLT and now I find that when saving in MHT format the watermark/background image is saved, which is nice, but trying to save it as 'webpage complete' under 'save as' in the browser still does not work. (For those who are new to Firefox, MHT files are not supported by the browser, but using the FF extention UnMHT one can open such files and save web documents as MHT files, meaning no accompanying folder is required to properly view the file.)

  • Following an amazon link and then accessing the page makes firefox open another amazon page in a new tab. How do I stop this

    I have this bizarre problem with firefox and Amazon (com and co.uk)
    If I click a link (open in new tab) to an amazon page the page opens in a new tab. Fine.
    If I then select that page (click its tab) the page is displayed and then a new amazon page opens in a new tab with the url http://www.amazon.com/?ie=UTF8&*Version*=1&*entries*=0&link_code=hom&tag=skipthemalls-20
    If I close the new amazon page and return to the original amazon page the phenomenon does not repeat - not new window opens.
    This does not happen in any other browser (IE or Chrome)
    This does not happen on any other website.
    I've scanned my PC (Malwarebytes and security essentials) and found nothing sinister
    All forefox add ons are disabled. To be sure, I've started 'restarted firefox with add ons disabled' and the problem still occurs. I've even reset Firefox to its original state and still the problem occurs.
    So now what?
    Windows 7 Ultimate
    Thinkpad R60 4GB

    That page is coded to a particular "affiliate" (skipthemalls) and may have the purpose of setting a cookie to earn a cut of revenue from your purchase. If that is not caused by the site you visited that brought you to Amazon, it's hard to think of a reason for it to open. (Even then, you would think it would be processed transparently in the background.)
    More generally, when you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

  • I tried to upgrade to the latest version of Firefox but on the Firefox start page is still says "you are not on the latest version of Firefox, upgrade now"

    I tried to upgrade to the latest version of Firefox but on the Firefox start page it still says "you are not on the latest version of Firefox, upgrade now". The start page looks different so maybe it did upgrade but why does the reminder still show?

    You may see that message below the Google search box on www.google.com/firefox which is the old Firefox default home page. It appears that page is no longer being maintained by Google. You appear to have the latest Firefox version.
    '''If you want the Google search page as your home page,''' change your home page to '''''about:home''''' (a new, updated version of the old Google/Firefox home page is now built-in to Firefox).
