Why does add-ons Manager create a new tab every time I go to home page?

When I start Firefox my home page tab shows up along with an add-ons Manager tab and a plus sign for new tab. Every time I go to a web site and then return to my home page ANOTHER add-ons Manager tab shows up. This apparently will go on forever. I have had as many as 20 add-ons Manager tabs showing. The only way to eliminate them is to stop Firefox and then restart. Then it starts all over again. What is causing this?
I'm running the latest version of Firefox and Windows 8.1 on a Dell Inspiron with 8G's of memory and a 1T hard drive.
Please help.

Can you post back here a screenshot from this issue?

  • Why does stuffit open and create a new folder every time I save a pages document?

    Why does stuffit open and create a new folder every time I save a pages document?

    Because you are saving it to the desktop, Pages documents are actually zipped files and Stuffit is set to uncompress desktop files.
    Either don't save to the desktop (bad practice) or check the preferences in Stuffit to see if you can turn off unstuff files on desktop.

  • Why does Firefox get rid of my app tabs every time I close it?

    I make app tabs when I open Firefox, then I close it later. Then the next time I open Firefox, the app tabs are gone.

    App (pinned) tabs and Tab Groups (Panorama) are stored as part of the session data in the file sessionstore.js in the Firefox profile folder.
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Session_Restore
    Make sure that you do not use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the "Browsing History" when Firefox is closed because that prevails and prevents Firefox from opening tabs from the previous session.

  • Why does iphoto 11 tell me to update library every time i open it?

    why does iphoto 11 tell me to update library every time i open it?
    iPhoto '11 OSX 10.8.5
    I open iphoto and I get the message
    "the Photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto"
    I click upgrade and after a few seconds the photos show fine, the application works correctly.
    then I quit the app. and reopen and i get the same message and the same results.
    this was happening before I did a complete erase of the Macbook Pro and install of Mt Lion
    upgraded from lion.
    only thing thats the same is the computer and the library I restored.
    RT

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • Why does my final cut pro is not responding every time I open it????!!!!!!

    why does my final cut pro is not responding every time I open it?

    As you give no background info nobody can possibly guess.
    However, have you tried trashing the preferences?
    Many weird things happen as a result of corrupt preferences which can create a vast range of different symptoms, so whenever FCP X stops working properly in any way, trashing the preferences should be the first thing you do using this free app.
    http://www.digitalrebellion.com/prefman/
    Shut down FCP X, open PreferenceManager and in the window that appears:-
    1. Ensure that only  FCP X  is selected.
    2. Click Trash
    The job is done instantly and you can re-open FCP X.
    There is absolutely no danger in trashing preferences and you can do it as often as you like.
    The preferences are kept separately from FCP X and if there aren't any when FCP X opens it automatically creates new ones  .  .  .  instantly.

  • How to create a new tab inside a existing subtab on a page.

    Hi,
    How can I create a new tab inside a existing subtab on a page?
    If I change directly on the page.xml it will not maintain compatibility with upgrades. Am I right?
    Thanks,
    Marcelo

    Marcelo,
    Well basically you are adding a stackLayout bean and using that adding your region. Are you able to see the changes and run the page without any error?
    As you are manipulating the file manually, you can never be sure of whether its going to cause issues later on or not. And as mentioned earlier if OAF doesn't support creating the subtab using personalization, there are bound to be some limitations from the framework side. Also what personalization allows is to create items and not regions. So better stick to a rigorous testing to catch any issues early on.

  • Aperture creates a new version every time i apply a new adjustment!!!

    1.5.6. is my aperture version. and recently it started to create a new version every time i apply a new adjustment. It's not the biggest bother for a couple of images, but for documenting a whole event with 300 images...well that might be a... mighty issue! How do I get this to stop? Any ideas?

    Preferences->General->Create new versions when making adjustments.
    Uncheck it

  • I have Mozilla Firefox installed, w/. my Home Page setup to be opened on It every time. I can open a new window on It too, but when I open a new tab, every time open this new tab w/. Untitled Page. I wanna It opening w/. my Home Page.

    I have Mozilla Firefox installed, w/. my Home Page setup to be opened on It every time. I can open a new window on It too, but when I open a new tab, every time open this new tab w/. Untitled Page. I wanna It opening w/. my Home Page.

    Firefox is coded to open new tabs in a blank page. That may change in Firefox 4. I don't know.
    In the meantime, there is an add-on called Tab Mix Plus that I think provides that option. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1122/

  • New tab doesn't open as my home page

    I have Google as my home page. When I click the + button to open a new tab, it doesn't load my home page.

    It is in the search bar, but I want it in the search box - the one on the middle of the screen in the google home page.
    If I could add 4 tabspaces to the command to automatically tab to the correct place it would work!!

  • How do I set new tabs to open up with my home page?

    When I open up a new tab the screen says "You have opened up a new Tab"....Informative but not particularly helpful... Can I set it so the new tab opens up on the google home page?

    Thanks the-edmeister. Your solution worked a treat. I had a problem with the AVG toolbar overwriting this but once I turned the AVG search bar off it was perfect. Great job. Thanks

  • Is it possible to configure Firefox for Android so it doesn;t open a new tab every time a new url is sent to the browser?

    We are using a web based service to register people's mood when they touch an NFC card against the tablet. Every time someone taps their card against it, it open up a new tab, and they then register the mood they are in.
    We recently got to a situation where we had 150 tabs open which gives us concerns that at some point the tablet could just slow to a crawl or fall over.
    The tablet is unmanned and so closing the tabs after every entry manually is not an option either.
    Ideally we would like the browser not to open a new tab every time. Is this possible?
    Thanks a lot

    You should ask this on https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/mobile-firefox-dev instead of a end user forum. It may require building a custom APK of Firefox.
