After resetting my home page, the directions say to hit "yes" to complete the action. where do I find the yes?

trying to change home page, the instructions say to hit yes. where is the yes

Did not know that you could '''drag''' the '''location bar favicon''' to the '''home page toolbar icon''' to change the home page, but as the directions in [http://support.mozilla.com/kb/How%20to%20set%20the%20home%20page How to set the home page] say you would reply "Yes" to the pop-up, which reads "Set Home Page" on it's title bar.
Those are the first directions on that page and it not the same as the second method which has 6 steps the last of which is "Ok".

Corrected link it should have matched wording on link title.

  • Firefox will not open to home page as directed in options and settings. Opening in safe mode makes no difference, either. Any ideas?

    Firefox will not open to home page as set in the settings. Even in safe mode, it still will not open to home page as directed. It seems to want to open to last set of tabs, even though that is not the way it was set in settings. It seems as though the settings do not have any impact on the way it behaves!!!

  • How can I delete bearsearch from my media toolbar (and Firefox in general)? It's acting like a virus and not letting me reset my home page.

    My grandson visited the BearShare website. Since then, the only home page that will "stick" in Firefox is http://search.bearshare.com. Repeated attempts to reset my home page have failed. After I reset the home page and close Firefox, when the program is restarted, the home page is, once again, http://search.bearshare.com.
    I notice that BearShare is listed on my Media Toolbar. How can I delete this item?

After that a pop up window appears with the message: The document could not be printed.  After pressing the OK button that pop up closes and the next pop up window appears with the message: There were no pages selected to print.  After pressing the OK button, the pop up closes and the pdf document is still visible in Reader.

    Where is the link that says you need a 32 bit processor?  On my MBA, in the past I've ran both Office for Mac and Windows 7 (MS Office) via Parallels (Bootcamp does the same thing).  I chose installing Windows 7 in the 32 bit mode ONLY because I have a couple of other legacy Windows programs that only run in 32 bit mode.

  • After opening a new tab, when I click on my home page (the house icon), it duplicates and opens a second window...it's never done this before?

    I just installed Firefox on a new laptop. Google is my home page. My opening tab is always Google. But, when I open a New Tab, it doesn't open in Google. So, I've always clicked on the house icon to take me straight to Google. Now when I do, TWO tabs open in Google. (it duplicates)

    I tried all of the above, I've reinstalled Firefox and I've checked if value set to 3 in browser.link.open_newwindow which it is, but the problem still happens.
    Regarding what you say re what is written in the article Tab preferences and settings, I understand what this means. However I am using FireFox in my work. I have a CRM where I constantly click on a button that automatically opens my order system on a new tab, or email templates in a new tab etc. The tab opens next to the tab I am currently on. However ever since I was prompted to Refresh Firefox earlier, it now opens these in a new window. Therefore the size of these pages has nothing to do with it, as this was not a problem before.
    This is irritating, as no I have to go from one window to another, and where I have multiple tabs open it is making my life difficult.
    Not happy!

  • Yesterday I opened "Options" for the first time in FF4 to reset my home page. Now, Options loads ITSELF into a new tab sporadically, spontaneously. What gives?

    I had entered a custom home builders company page, which wouldn't load properly, but made a bunch of changes to my registry. I successfully ran CCleaner to clean up the registry, but when I loaded FF the site that caused me problems was now my new home page. I opened Options to reset home page to what it was before. That operation succeeded, but now every time I run FF, Options opens up spontaneously in a new tab.

    Hi again, I solved the problem! :)
    I deleted 2 files
    user.js
    prefs.js
    and bingo, all is well.

  • On startup the home page goes directly to a series of ads

    When I open Firefox, the start page goes to an ad and then another, etc. How do I stop this?

    Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs.<br />
    You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.<br />
    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.<br />

  • Cannot reset default home page IE7

    X61S  Vista SP1 IE7 Norton 360 1.0
    Cannot change default home page.  Default page is garbage URL I entered by mistake
    http://http//
    So when I start IE7 it throws an error "Can't find this" and then works fine thereafter.
    If I change default to "about:blank" it is ok for the IE7 session but does not persist.  The next time I start IE7, it is back to the garbage URL  http://http//
    Norton chat cannot tell me if Norton 360 is blocking my attempt to reset the home page.  It is not a problem of redirection of the home page.
    Haven't been able to find string http://http// anywhere.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    You're welcome.
    As far as a performance comparison goes, if there is one I have absolutely no idea. I will say this much; in my experience the ThinkVantage Technologies are good and they work, [can of worms just opened], I particularily like Access Connections.
    If you are new to them then read up on them in Access Help or in the web, you will find masses of differing opinions.

  • Safari reseting prefs, home page, and bookmarks

    upon startup when i load safari my preferences, tool bar, home page, and recently my bookmarks have been reseting. any web page will not load until i reset safari, and delete cache, and restart safari. if I change the prefs to mine the next time I startup it happens again.

    Limewire is a major source of malware for computers, even Macs.
    If you allow a Trojan to be installed, the user's DNS records can be modified, redirecting incoming internet traffic through the attacker's servers, where it can be hijacked and injected with malicious websites and pornographic advertisements. The trojan also installs a watchdog process that ensures the victim's (that's you!) DNS records stay modified on a minute-by-minute basis.
    You can read more about how, for example, the OSX/DNSChanger Trojan works here:
    http://www.f-secure.com/v-descs/trojanosxdnschanger.shtml
    SecureMac has introduced a free Trojan Detection Tool for Mac OS X. It's available here:
    http://macscan.securemac.com/
    The DNSChanger Removal Tool detects and removes spyware targeting Mac OS X and allows users to check to see if the trojan has been installed on their computer; if it has, the software helps to identify and remove the offending file. After a system reboot, the users' DNS records will be repaired.
    (Note that a 30 day trial version of MacScan can be downloaded free of charge from:
    http://macscan.securemac.com/buy/
    and this can perform a complete scan of your entire hard disk. After 30 days free trial the cost is $29.99. The full version permits you to scan selected files and folders only, as well as the entire hard disk. It will detect (and delete if you ask it to) all 'tracker cookies' that switch you to web sites you did not want to go to.)
    Stop using LimeWire. LimeWire (and other peer-to-peer sharing applications and download torrents) are hotbeds of potential software issues waiting to happen to your Mac. Everything from changing permissions to downloading trojans and other malicious software can be acquired from using these applications. Similar risks apply to using Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, YouTube and similar sites which are prone to malicious hacking: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/8420233.stm
    Resist the temptation to download pirated software. After the release of iWork '09 earlier this year, a Trojan was discovered circulating in pirated copies of Apple's productivity suite of applications (as well as in pirated copies of Adobe's Photoshop CS4). Security professionals now believe that the botnet (from iServices) has become active. Although the potential damage range is projected to be minimal, an estimated 20,000 copies of the Trojan have been downloaded. SecureMac offer a simple and free tool for the removal of the iBotNet Trojan available here:
    http://macscan.securemac.com/files/iServicesTrojanRemovalTool.dmg
    Also, there is the potential for having your entire email contact list stolen for use for spamming:

  • Annoying reset to home page

    often, my iphone will reset on its own to the home page (i'm not pressing the home page button at the bottom)....this occurs while i'm using safari, mail, ipod, or any other application for that matter....
    has anyone else experienced this as well? the only thing i could attribute this to is that when i'm using the internet (for safari, googlemaps, email, etc...), and either the EDGE network or the wifi network that i'm on temporarily boots me out, like when you loose a cell phone signal....
    just wondering if this has happened to anyone else....
    other than that, i've been using my ipod now for 3 days: battery life is excellent, features amazing, even better than expected signal/coverage...a wonderful device! the only complaint i have is that the voice quality is not the best....
    -thanks!

    You may have already seen this elsewhere in the forum, but if not:
    some people have had success with the Reset iPhone and Reset Settings as described on this page:
    http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/troubleshooting/phone/
    I was having problems with the iPod cutting out whenever I started looking at photos. Maps and Photos would both suddenly close, as well. Since I did the Reset Settings (without deleting media), it has been OK. I did not do the Reset iPhone, personally.
    I cannot say this is a long-lasting fix since I only did it a few hours ago, but hopefully it will help.

  • Home Page - the search engine on my Firefox start page used to be google and has now changes to Ask . How to I get google back

    I suspect some toolbar has changed the search engine on my home page which is the standard Mozilla Firefox start Page. It used to be google but now is Ask. I want to change it back to Google.

    You can open the <b>about:config</b> page via the location bar and do a search for <i>ask.com</i> via the Filter at the top of the about:config page.<br />
    You can reset all <i>ask.com</i> related prefs that appear bold (user set) via the right-click context menu to their default values.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions 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.

  • Mozilla firefox canot load default home page. It says " URL not valid or cannot be loaded"

    my version of Mozilla Firefox is 9.01. I have set the my home page to Mozilla's default homepage, which is the Mozilla firefox start page. A pop up came by, saying "URL is not valid and cannot be loaded". I cannot find any info on the support web and had to resolve to this.

    That issue can be caused by a corrupted or incomplete Visual C++ installation (multiple versions can be installed side-by-side; SxS) that is missing some runtime components (Redistributable Package) that Firefox depends on (problem with an embedded manifest file that specifies a specific runtime version).
    You need to install the missing components (e.g. VisualC++ 2005 Redistrbutable).
