Customizing my home page doesn't hold when restarting Firefox.

After upgrading to version 4, the customizing of my home page won't hold - it reverts back to the original each time I launch Firefox. Cookies are enabled.

You may have to set an allow exception for the cookies of that website to keep that customization.

  • Firefox home page doesn't open when I click on Firefox. Have to go to File and click on New Window to get into Start Page.

    Firefox doesn't open when I click on it. I have to click on New Window under File to get my bookmarks and a search page
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == No way to know. Nothing new has been done to Firefox.

    If you close Firefox, then start Firefox in Safe Mode, does the problem still occur? For instructions on starting in Safe Mode, see [[Safe Mode]].
    BTW, you really should upgrade to the latest version. See [[Updating Firefox]]

  • Home Page Doesn't Load

    My home page doesn't load when I type in the sites address:
    http://www.typea.com, but does
    load when I type in typea.com/Index.html.
    The preview in browser works fine, and I've checked all the
    links within the site and they check out okay.
    Appreciate any help!
    Thanks,
    Peter

    Check with what default home pages and extensions are loaded
    against the
    server, and make sure that index.html is included as an
    option.

  • I accidently "x" off the download of firefox 4 before it had finished and now the home page doesn't work, i tried redownloading firefox but that didn't work is there a way i can resume the download?

    I accidently "x" off the download of firefox 4 before it had finished and now the home page doesn't work. it loads but then wont let me search from it? i tried redownloading firefox but that didn't work is there a way i can resume the previous download?

    Your More system details list show that you run the latest Firefox 4.0.1 version.<br />
    You can check that via Help > About Firefox and on the Help > Troubleshooting Information page.
    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.
    See:
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Server+not+found
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Firewalls
    If you posted from another computer then download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    * Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version.
    * Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

    I can't open Firefox. The home page doesn't come up, I just keep getting the Crash Reporter asking me to restart/quit but every time I do this the same message comes back. I've not been able to use Firefox for days now.

    Since a few days we have a lot of crashes with [http://www.trusteer.com/product/trusteer-rapport Trusteer Rapport]. If you have this program, try to disable it and see if that stops the crashing.<br>
    You can stop Rapport using Start Menu > Programs > Trusteer Rapport > Stop Rapport<br>
    You can ask their helpdesk when an updated version of their product will be made available or, if you don't need this software, uninstall it.<br>

    If you do not have Rapport, then we need to have a crash report ID. When you send Mozilla a crash report it just puts it in a giant database.

  • How do I get home page window to appear when opening FF?

    How do I get my homepage window to appear when I open FF?
    When I go to the dock and click on the FF icon,
    ''Firefox ''appears in the menu bar but there is no home page window showing. I have to go to ''File'' and select ''New Window'' to get to my home page window.
    In FF Preferences I have selected:
    "Show my home page" and the correct home page address is shown.
    I deleted FF application/program (dragged to trash can) and then re-installed it. That did not help.
    I occasionally use Safari and there is no problem with the home page showing right away when I open Safari.

    The file you need toi backup is name domain.sites2 and is located in your Users/Home() /Library/Application Support/iWeb folder.  Without that file you won't be able to continue to edit and maintain your website.
    However, remember this:
    NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home()/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    So if you're running Lion or Mt Lion you'll need to make that library visible before you can find and backup the domain.sites2 file.

  • Home Page doesn't open

    This seems to be recent. I open Safari and the address appears, but the home page doesn't load (MSN). If I click the RELOAD button in the header it loads fine. If I clear the CACHE, I get maybe 3 successful openings and then it's back to blank. Any ideas?
    Please e-mail me any hints at:[email protected]

  • Group Default Home Page doesn't work(WWC-44131)

    Hi,
    We had configured a Group "A" and and page group "pageA" before, and it have
    run well for a long time.
    Recently, we want to configure another Group and Page Group, but we couldn't archive that.
    Here are what we do.
    1) create a Page Group "pageB"
    2) create a Group "B"
    3) create a User "userB"
    4) grant access privileges(view) of "pageB" to Group "B"
    5) set Default Home Page of group "B" to "pageB"
    6) set group "B" to be the Default Group of "userB"
    When I logged in with userB, I got the error.
    Error: You do not have permission to perform this operation. (WWC-44131)
    I awared that the logging URL redirect to "pageA", and I didn't add userB to pageA, so I got the error.
    After I added userB to pageA, the logging would be successful(redirect to pageA), but it's not what we want.
    When I set the pageB to be the Default Home Page of userB, I could log into Portal with pageB successfully.
    But it's impossible that we set all the user's Default Home Page.
    Note that everything is okay before, the problem occurred when we want to add another page group.
    The Global Default Home Page is "Portal Builder".
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.
    Regards,
    Jimmy

    In a word, I set the Default Home Page of GroupB to PageB, and UserB belongs to GroupB.
    I didn't set the User Default Home Page of UserB.
    When UserB logged in, portal redirected UserB to PageA, not PageB.
    Why?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi konee,
    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!

  • 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.

  • Users with a https home page are not redirected when using web-passthrough on WLC 5508

    I have a Cisco 5508 running version 7.0.116.0.  This controller hosts an open public wifi that requires users to accept a terms agreement via a Web-Passthrough setup that redirects them to the terms splash page.  For most people this works without any issue.  However, if a user has their homepage for their default browser set to a https site, such as https://www.google.com, then they are never redirected to the terms splash page.  The page will just spin and spin until finally they get a timeout error.
    Has anyone else had this experience?  If so did you find a solution or is this some sort of short coming of the controller?
    Any and all comments/information is appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Jim

    web auth (redirect) doesn't work when client users a https url
    Symptom:A client whose home page is an HTTPS (HTTP over SSL, port 443) one will never
    be redirected by Web Auth to the web authentication dialog. Therefore, such

    network.
    Workaround:The client should attempt to open any HTTP (port 80) web page.

  • Only my home page won't open when I go to log in, it gets the message that the session has timed out. What can I do about it?

    I can log in and use my homepage in IE but I get a session timed out message when I try to log in while using Firefox. the URL is: https://familysearch.org.

    I also did one other thing, before I got the reply. I changed my home page from the log in page to the website's home page. Then I can log in after clicking the log in button. It seems that the log in page wasn't allowing me to get into another session. Perhaps this will help someone else. The above solution was good in that it helped me find out all the places I needed to go to erase unwanted cookies, etc. Thanks for the help.
