Checks for adon compatability at every startup

Since updating to version 10beta every time I start Firefox it insists on checking add on compatibility an opens with the welcome screen and my home page. I would really like it to start with just my home page and skip checking the add-on at every start during the day.
Windows XP home service pack 3.

What happens if you set automatic update for extensions to false, but leave the ordinary update set to true? I am not seeing notifications every time I start Firefox. If I check to see if there are updates, then I see them listed.
I changed the auto update to off. Firefox still checks at every start to see if the updates are compatible.
The most irritating thing to me is that I get two tabs at every start, the welcome screen and my home page.
Thanks for the effort, I will keep poking around and see if I can find a cure.

  • OSX 10.10 Mail, check for new mail at system startup?

    When I start the mail app, it will check for new messages.  But can the mail app be set to automatically check for new mail at system startup?  I typically do not "re open apps when logging back in".
    THANKS

    Leave Mail running and set it to check every minute. AFAIK, there's no way to check otherwise.

  • Firefox: check for updates to addons at startup, inform user, but don't download and install, as before new addon-manager - how?

    Before the new add-ons manager it was possible to let Firefox check for updates to extensions at startup, and get information about available updates without having them automatically downloaded and installed. It seems that this is not possible any more - either updates are automatically installed without chance to review, or one has to open the add-ons manager to see the result of the update check. How can I get the old behaviour back?

    Mac Books have their own repair routines. I would suggest going to the Macbook usage forum and post there. Perhaps someone there can help. I would suggest a DiskRepair.

  • How do I check for peripheral compatibility, ie HP DesignJet 755CM?

    How do I check for peripheral compatibility, ie HP DesignJet 755CM? other older Mac computers?
    Thanks.

    Usually the best way is by contacting the manufacturer of the peripheral. Manufacturers have the best information for compatibility with other devices for their products.

  • After updating from FF9 to 11; FF always checks for addon compatibility and goes to mozilla

    I updated from FF9 to 11. In options; homepage is set to blank page and Foxtabs set to homepage (Foxtabs is compatible with FF11). But since updating, everytime I open FF it wants to check for add on compatibility and after I hit cancel, FF opens and the browser is using a mozilla page with a video saying Ive updated. This is getting very annoying.

    You can completely disable the compatibility check.
    Visit the following link & the 2 or 3 paragraph down will be titled '''"Completely disabling the compatibility check''''

  • Check for libraries with a startup script

    Is it possible to check for open libraries with a startup script?  Currently, i'm trying like this:
    try{
         app.libraries.item("Marks.indl").name
    catch(e){
         app.open(File("/Support/InDesign/Lib/Marks.indl"))
    If InDesign is already open, this code works correctly (that is, if the library is open, nothing happens, otherwise it opens the library).  However, if I place this in the startup script folder, it will open a second (third, fourth, etc.) copy of the library, even if the library is already open.
    I think this happens because the library files are opened later in the startup sequence then the startup scripts are run.  Is there any way to work around this?
    Thanks,
    /dan

    Is your script supposed to work in ID CS3, or later?
    Anyway, InDesign CS4 seems to reopen the libraries before launching startup scripts, so the following code works for me:
    // Startup Script
    const libName = "Marks.indl",
      libPath = "/Support/InDesign/Lib/";
    var libFile = libPath + libName;
    if( !app.libraries.itemByName(libName).isValid )
      try {app.open(File(libFile))}
      catch(_){alert("Unable to open the library:\r"+libFile);}

  • How to stop Firefox from checking for add-on compatibility every time it opens?

    How to stop Firefox from checking for add-on compatibility every time it opens?

    That can be a problem with the compatibility.ini file in the Firefox profile folder.
    Try to rename (or delete) the compatibility.ini file in the Firefox profile folder to see if that helps.
    You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
    *Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    You can also check for problems with preferences.
    Delete possible user.js and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename (or delete) the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in the current Firefox release.

  • Firefox opens up "you are updated to newest firefox version" page every time i start. Does the same for for updated extensions. Also checks for add-on compatibility everytime i start. Please help me.

    Everytime i start Firefox (version 9.0.1 -release version) it checks for compatibility with the add-ons just as if i just installed firefox. It also opens up "you have successfully updated to the latest version" pages for firefox (and extensions. ie flashgot and downloadhelper). My homepage was always blank and firefox was always set to load the pages from the last session. A similar issue was covered in this support but that solution (setting the homepage to default) didnt help me.

    Hi meric07,
    You should look at [https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Firefox+has+just+updated+tab+shows+each+time+you+start+Firefox this article about that specific issue] and the article [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved Preferences not saved]. These should give you all the information you need!
    If that doesn't work:
    # Type about:config in the address bar
    # Click ''I'll be careful, I promise'' if prompted
    # In the Filter input field type ''startup''
    # Double click on startup.homepage_override_url
    # Delete the text string and click ''OK''
    # Close Firefox and reopen the window to verify that it has worked.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • Xmarks asks for login every startup? + welcome page errors

    Everytime I startup Firefox 5, Xmarks asks for my login info and sometimes still doesn't login. I have it checked to remember my info, but it still asks. A screen flashes by really quickly saying to whitelist Xmarks.com in Noscript, which I've done. Any other suggestions?
    Also, every startup, Firefox 5 does a long compatibility check, then displays the same "welcome to firefox 5" screen, along with the update pages of like 4 of my add-ons.
    I've done plugin updates and virus scans. Can I receive any assistance on these issues?

    Even though I had a very similar Problem, I had it with ModemManager in connection with NetworkManager on Debian. I found this thread (as so often you find good answers in the arch forums that help for many other distributions ) but the Problem presented differently (and much much more recent - this weekend in fact)
    The Pin Dialog would pop up every restart of NetworkManager, saving or applying the Pin would be rejected with an error that the system policy forbids "org.freedesktop.ModemManager1.Device.Control" and nothing else than aborting ended the dialog. Controlling WLAN was not possible anymore either.
    I then found out that though NetworkManager could not find a systemd-session for the current user (by stracing NetworkManager - not very accurate). I guess there was a problem running logind properly from X or something like that, since the system was running SysV-Init with logind. Switching to systemd as a startup manager helped but I didn't find out what broke in the first place.
    I hope this helps people finding this thread somehow.

  • Firefox checks for updates to add-ons every time it starts?

    Every time I click my shortcut to open Firefox, a window pops up. This window scans my installed add-ons and checks for updates. Then, Firefox opens. One of my add-ons, "Zotero Word Integration" tries to install itself every time. If I have an instance of Microsoft Word open, this installation fails, but ultimately, Firefox opens and runs fine. The add-on scan takes approx. 30 seconds, so if I accidentally close FF, it's a big hassle. This first started happening after I updated to FF 8. I downloaded and installed FF7 but the problem persisted. Now, I am back to FF8, but, alas, nothing has changed. None of my other add-ons are having problems except for the ones that aren't compatible with FF8 yet. FYI, I do have Roboform, but it is the current version, both to-go, and everywhere.

    See:
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
    Delete the files extensions.* (extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini, extensions.cache, extensions.rdf) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox profile folder to reset the extensions registry.
    New files will be created when required.
    See "Corrupt extension files":
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
    If you see disabled, not compatible, extensions in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the Tools button at the left side of the Search Bar (or click the "Find Updates" button in older Firefox versions) to do a compatibility check or see if there is an update.
    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile:
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)
    See:
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox

    The latest Mozilla update change the way my computer starts when I click on Mozilla on the desktop.

    I have IMac OSX 10.9.4, 4GB,Processor 3.06 with Intell2Duo. I would like to check for Malware. I run a TechTool Pro 6 every month and that comes up great.
    When check how much memory I am using, with only Safari open I am using 3.9 and more of her 4.0 memory. She is very. very slow in processing. I had 4000
    trash to clean out and it took her over an hour to expel. Also for some reason Safari will not allow me to click on a link, in my G-mail, and let it go to the page.
    It has a sign saying a pop-up blocker is on and will not let me do it. I must open the stamp to look at my e-mails and if I have redirected link now I can do it.
    I have not changed my preferences so where is this pop-up blocker?
    I have looked at preferences on Safari and Google, which I do not understand Google, and do not see where this blocker could be.
    Malware is something I want to make sure is not on my computer. Tech Tool Pro 6 is all I know of and it does not detect Malware.
    Help.
