After a recent Windows Update my Bookmarks Toolbar no longer automatically appears when I open a new window. How do I reset this?

Windows automatically updated my computer a few days ago and now when I open a Firefox window my Bookmarks Toolbar does not automatically appear at the top of the window. I can get it to appear there manually but I have to do it each time I open a window. Is there a way to reset it so that my Bookmarks Toolbar appears automatically at the top of the window every time I open a new window?

I am not able to see toolbars, when I open a new window that window is not visible, if I open from bookmarks and there is music playing I hear it but canNOT SEE the websites. I was able to get window open from the help "window" and open sites from there just not from new: window tab or bookmarks those stay invisible? I tried the help suggestions, safemode,etc.

Hi CMorenoOT,
This prompt is usually displayed when your Apple ID needs to be configured for the iTunes Store. You'll want to run through the additional steps to setup your country, and payment information.

When I open a new window, it doesn't attach itself to the bottom toolbar? I'm using XP Pro and Firefox 6.0.2.

It's explained pretty well in my initial question. Not sure what else you would need in the way of details.
I will say it's been going on for a month or so, and it happens every time I start Firefox, and every time I open a new window.

Thank you for taking the time to leave an answer for me, Poochie1. I really appreciate your attempt at helping me.
Unfortunately, as smart as I thought I was when I asked the question, I apparently wasn't that smart, because I didn't explain my problem so you'd know what the heck I was talking about.
I think it's because I'm probably not using the correct terminology. I'll try again.
When I open a new window, it just kind of floats on the screen. Before this new update, I could open a window and it was lined up with the start taskbar located at the bottom of the screen. Sometimes the new window will cover up the taskbar partially, and sometimes completely. I have to move it up and align it with the taskbar. Then, when I open another new window, I have to line that one up with the window underneath it.
I hope that description is better than my first one, and I hope you can make some sense out of it, Poochi (and anyone else who happens by here).
Again, thank you for your help.

AFter updating to iTunes 11, my first generation Apple TV no longer automatically syncs when I open iTtunes nor does it display its playlists in iTunes.

AFter updating to iTunes 11 my first generation Apple TV wasn't displayed any longer in iTunes. I had to relink it and after that it no longer automatically sysnc when I open iTunes, nor does it display its play lists. It still has its photos and play lists and it is linked up for streaming but does not sync as it used to do. Is it possible iTunes 11 doesn't support first generation Apple TV the same way it used to.?

Yes, the first generation model still works with iTunes 11. It sounds as though you have set it up as a streaming only library.
Navigate to Settings > Computers > Your Library on the Apple TV, you may be told you will lose all synced content, but you can sync it back afterwards, you won't lose any purchased content that has yet to be transferred. Then select Settings > Computers > Connect To iTunes, note the passcode that appears on screen, click on the device in iTunes and enter the passcode when prompted.

Since installing the latest version... when I open a new window it opens everything I have minimized too... very annoying. How can I fix this, I mimimize to go back to a window not have multiple windows open.

== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== after installed last version...

Well, then isn't there some way to induce Firefox to give Windows parameters that make it open the fershlugginer window in the *same* position, instead of an offset position?

New problem, Lycos Mail is my home page. When I open a new window I usually get Google search, which is what I want. Now, somehow when I open a new window I get Yahoo search. How do I change it back to Google? Thank you, Randy

A new tab opens by default as a blank tab (about:blank).
If that isn't the case then an extension has changed that behavior.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
You can middle-click or hold down Ctrl and left-click the Home button on the Navigation toolbar to open the Home page in a new tab.
You can look at this extension to set which page to open in a new tab:
* NewTabURL : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/newtaburl/

I want my home page to open when I open a new window.

I set up my home page and all is fine, but when I open a new window, the page that opens is a generic BING page, and I have to click on the home button to get the home page to appear. Is there a way to set firefox to always open my home page?

Type '''about:preferences#general'''<Enter> in the address bar.
There are two settings;
* '''When Firefox Starts'''
When the browser is started, what do you want to
display. Many of us choose '''Show My Home Page.'''
* '''Home Page'''
When a new page is opened, what do you want displayed.
# '''Use Current Page'''. Use what ever page(s) are open at that time.
# '''Use Bookmark'''
# '''Restore To Default.''' about:home shows a Mozilla home page with tools.
You can use any of these that you wish;
'''about:home''' (Firefox default home page),
'''about:newtab''' (shows the sites most visited),
'''about:blank''' (a blank page),
or you can enter any '''web page''' or '''about:''' page you want.

Back up all data.
Please triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
defaults delete com.apple.dock single-app && killall Dock
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing the key combination command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear below what you entered. You can then quit Terminal. Test.

When I open a new window (Ctrl+N), I want a blank page to appear. I do not want my home pages opened. How can I do that?

A new window opens by default with the home page(s). 
If you want a blank window then you need to open an about:blank page in a new window. 
You can do that with a bookmark that you open with a Shift+ left-click in a new window. 
Otherwise you need to set the Home page to a blank page and use a bookmark to open the preferred Home page in a new tab.

When I open a new windows from my current tab background turns black. Can this be disabled?

I use Remedy and when I open a new windows from my current one my background turns black. This started when I moved to the new update. Is there anyway to disable this?

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] 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).

All minized firefox windows open when I open a new window

I have several firefox windows open and minimized. When I try to open a new firefox window, all the minimized windows open and are displayed. I am running firefox 8. How can I correct this so that the minimized window remain minimized when I open a new window?
Running Windows XP.

That issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly (possibly Ask.com toolbar).

History window opens by default when i open a new window or restart firefox. How can i get rid of that ? its annoying.

History window opens by default when i open a new window or restart firefox. How can i get rid of that ? its annoying

If the History sidebar is closed when you close Firefox and doesn't stay closed on the next start then that can be problem with the file localstore.rdf in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder]
Delete localstore.rdf or rename the file to localstore.rdf.sav in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder] to test if the file is corrupted. 
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Corrupt_localstore.rdf 
(caution: do not delete the localstore.rdf file in the Firefox program installation folder)
Note: 
Deleting the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/localstore.rdf localstore.rdf] will reset the customizations of the toolbars to the defaults. 
You can rename "localstore.rdf" to "localstore.rdf.sav" to test if that solves it. 
Then you can restore the customization by copying "localstore.rdf.sav" to "localstore.rdf" if it didn't work.

Is there anyway to get an App Tab to stay when I close the program then reopen it?...they always disappear when I open a new window etc.

Is there anyway to get an App Tab to stay when I close the program then reopen it?...they always disappear when I open a new window etc.
And I thought the whole point of an App Tab was to always have those tabs there no matter what window is open all the time period.
It's a minor complaint but I would really appreciate the option to permanently have them there.

I thought that app tabs would be more persistent, like pinning programs to the taskbar in Windows, but this is not the case.
Instead, once you close a Firefox window, all its tabs and app tabs are lost.
Essentially, this means that the close button in the upper-left corner of a Firefox window is now a "kill all open tabs and loose all App Tabs without warning++ " button. That is not cool.
I realize that "Firefox > Quit Firefox" behaves as intended, but many people use the more obvious red close button instead of the menu to close windows on a Mac. And it is easy to forget that the red button is now also an app-tab-death button. I've lost my app tabs many times to this issue. It is an unforgiving user interface decision which hampers the usability of app tabs. Why should I go through the extra clicks of setting up app tabs if I can loose them so easily?
Ideally, App Tabs could be saved separately from the currently open windows (perhaps create an option to save then to a special Tab Group that opens on startup?). App tabs would be exceedingly useful to me if they weren't so easy to loose.
On that note, saving Tab Groups would also be a useful functionality.
++ You will get a "closing multiple tabs" warning if you have only one window open, and that one window has multiple non-app tabs open, and you have enabled the warning in Preferences. But this too unreliable to help prevent the loss of app tabs.

How can I make firefox give the focus (the cursor) to the address bar when I open a new window - as it does when I open a new tab (to about:blank)?

When I open a new tab using CTRL-T, the address/awesome bar has the focus.
When I open a new window using CTRL-N, it does not.
Can the behaviours be made consistent via setting a configuration option or key?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Hello wodow, please check it in [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode#firefox:linux:fx27 safe mode], do you have the same behaviour ? DO NOT reset, select "Start in Safe Mode".
thank you

When I open a new window, the spinner does not stop, or the window open

I have a MBP 3 yrs. old, running Snow Lep. When I open a new window, the spinner in the address bar spins and window does not open unless I click on the X and stop the spinner. Some times this doesn't work either. It just hangs up trying to open the next window.

The given are very little details about your problem so please elaborate.
2. on each page load you have to verify whether the session variable. if "IsLoggedIn" exists and its value is "true" then you can show the requested page otherwise redirect to login page.
if(Session["IsLoggedIn"] == null || Session["IsLoggedIn"] != "true")
Response.Redirect("login.aspx");
Better way: use a master page. In the load_page event, check the session. Thus, you wouldn't need to write the method to check in every page, just in the master page.
Noam B.
Do not Forget to Vote as Answer/Helpful, please. It encourages us to help you...
Masterpage is a better idea.
But The login page shouldn't use MasterPage OR need to have logic to check before redirecting to login page if you are already in Login page.
Otherwise you will get into Recursive Redirection error.
hope this helps.
