When I start mozilla or open any link in a new window I get the desired page to load but an additional new tab page opens up along with it, fix?

When I start mozilla or open any link in a new window I get the desired page to load but an additional new tab page opens up along with it. I've tried switching my homepage to different things (new tab, firefox home, show blank page) but I always get an additional new tab to open. How do I get only a single page to open?

Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. <br>
'''Note''': ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions and some Preferences.''
*Open websites will not be saved in Firefox versions lower than 25.
To Reset Firefox do the following:
'''For Firefox versions previous to 29.0:'''
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox"[[Image:Button reset]] button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
'''For Firefox 29.0 and above:'''
#Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Troubleshooting Information''.
Now, a new tab containing your troubleshooting information should open.
#At the top right corner of the page, you should see a button that says "Reset Firefox"[[Image:Button reset]]. Click on it.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

Thank you.

    But it does appears as if the default open is Print; what I would recommend is to uninstall, then reinstall the Reader.

  • When I open and close firefox about 3 times, I get the blue screen of death. Why? Also Firefox only opens every second time, and I have to close it manually to fix the problem. How can I avoid this?

    I have to close the firefox from my task list. Before I do that I can't open any web browser. This is really annoying, and I have had this problem only after using Firefox 4.

  • I just downloaded the Adobe Acrobat DC update on my Mac (Yosemite). Now, I can't open any of my PDFs. I'm getting the message "Internal Error Occurred." What does that mean, and can someone help me?

    HELP!

    Hi Sukrit,
    Am also facing the same issue.
    I get below error messages when i open a PDF.
    "An internal error occured"
    I have installed new windows 7 and i was not having pdf viewer. I just downloaded the latest adobe acrobat reader DC for the adobe site and installed in my PC. Thing is, am able to open some of the PDF files (word document that is converted into PDF). But scanned images for example photo or mark sheets that are converted into PDF, am getting this error message.
    I tired almost everything.
    1) un-installed and installed again.
    2) installed previous version of adobe
    3) unchecked the "Enable, protection mode during startup"
    4) tried setting zero for "bproectmode" in the regedit (key_host_local_machine->adobe->dc> Dword with value 0)
    5) created new administrator account, and even there, i got the same error message.
    6) tried repair installation said by Sukrit...
    But nothing fixed my issue
    Please someone help me in fixing this issue.

  • Can't open any program of CS6 on windows 7. The windows of the program open and close right after. I allready uninstal et re-instal all de CS6 but it's useless, CS6 still won't start.

    Of course, I'm register. I used CCleaner for the uninstalation. I try to start with the "control-Alt-shift" key pressed, also unsuccesfull... The most strange is that before Chistmas hollyday, everythinks was working fine. When I came back, on january, it wasn't.

    Allright, I uninstall CS6, clean my computer with "Adobe Cleaner" et re-install.Now It's working !

    You may be having problems in shutting down Firefox properly for some reason.
    What is the exact message you receive ?
    You may need to look for and kill any Firefox or plugin container processes that are still running. See [["Firefox is already running but is not responding" error message - How to fix it]]
    If the problem continues a screen shot of the message may help

  • TS1702 Previously purchased book on iBooks, previously read. Still visible on iBooks on the iPad. When I attempt to open the book now, I get the message: "Failed to load book because the requested resource is missing." Help.   Larry

    On iBooks app on iPad: When trying to open a previously purchased and read book, I get the message "Failed to load book because the requested resource is missing."    How can I open the book again?      Larry107

    Quit the iBooks app completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logou appears and let go of the button.
    Or try deleting the book and download it again. You can download it again for free as long as you use the same Apple ID.
    If that doesn't work either, sometimes deleting the iBooks app and reinstalling it may work. But art with the first two suggestions.

    I have iPhone 4s, and using latest iOS. When I try to open any link from Twitter or Facebook, it goes to open some wrong webpage. My iphone seems to be infected or suffering from some spyware or malware. How can I remove this wrong link opening ? Please help me to resolve...

    I think the McAfee suite will do the trick when I pay them a one-time fee of $69 or $179 for a year for unlimited support.
    Your call of course but IMO a waste of money. Please read this first:
    There are many forms of ‘Malware’ that can affect a computer system, of which ‘a virus’ is but one type, ‘trojans’ another. Using the strict definition of a computer virus, no viruses that can attack OS X have so far been detected 'in the wild', i.e. in anything other than laboratory conditions. The same is not true of other forms of malware, such as Trojans. Whilst it is a fairly safe bet that your Mac has NOT been infected by a virus, it may have another security-related problem, but more likely a technical problem unrelated to any malware threat.
    You may find this User Tip on Viruses, Trojan Detection and Removal, as well as general Internet Security and Privacy, useful:

    From what i understand i see that - Cookies are not transferred between your website and your webapp when installing the icon on the home screen (for authentication purposes for example). It was working until 6.1 and now it’s not working anymore.
    Can someone please tell me if this bug will be fixed in any future release, if so the ticket number of some kind that i can track, or if there is a workaround for this issue?

  • TS3276 i am unable to open any links on any mail messages. thhis includes any buttons, such as view or buy when on a group on mail for example.

    i am unable to open any links on any mail messages. thhis includes any buttons, such as view or buy when on a group on mail for example.

    So I'm not Mary Frances.  I'm her husband who is force to deal with this opaque and obnoxious equipment (iPad).  With the iOS 7 update she could no longer follow web links by tapping them in an e-mail (it did work from a web page).  After an hour of web searching, experimenting and rejecting the offer of an answer from apple help for only $20, I found that, if in settings/safari, you turn off the "Do Not Track" button, the ability to follow links in an e-mail by a tapping is magically returned.
    Flash! I just went back to the ipad and turned on the "Do Not Track" button -- just to test my discovery.  Predictably (by my cynical myself) you can still open a link in an e-mail, so I don't know what's happening/happen.  But I'm not surprised.

  • I installed a game and when i start mozilla i am unable to start with the my home web page how can i fix

    i installed a game and when i start mozilla i am unable to start with the my home web page. i set my home page in options tools. when i open Mozilla it opens in another page that i do not want

    Some add-on or other software included with the "game" you installed might have "hijacked" your Firefox home page. I take it you tried resetting your home page? Ref: [[How to set the home page]]
