Disable thumbnail page

I am not a computer programmer who knows what a Boleen page is. I need a step by step instruction on how to disable the new thumbnail page. I just want it to do what it used to do when I opened up a new page - go to my homepage. I am using OSX 10.9.5
Please assume I do not know anything what so ever and really break it down barney style.
This morning I never knew this feature existed. I got home from work and POW there are all these thumbnails similar to the Safari thumbnails that were very easy to turn off unlike the Firefox ones.

Type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the <i>Enter</i> key to open the <i>about:config</i> page like you open a website by typing the URL in the location bar.
*If you see a warning message then you can confirm that you want to access the about:config page.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
You can start typing <b>browser.newtab.url</b> in the search bar at the top to locate this pref.
Open the right-click context menu and select Modify and change the value to your preferred new tab page.
The default is the about:newtab page with the nine tiles with thumbnails.
If you want a blank page then set the pref to <b>about:blank</b>

  • Thumbnail Page Numbering in Acrobat 6.0

    Hi All
    I have Acrobat Professional 6.06 patched on a win XP Pro SP2, core 2duo, 3gb ram, Dell optiplex.
    When i insert extra pdf pages to a chapter of a pdf document the pages are knocked on in thumbnail view, if i delete the pages i inserted then all the chaptering is removed totally ruining the document. If the document is printed it reads okay with the numbering but in thumbnail view it is ruined and we need these thumbnail page numbering to be there for a customer.
    This is our procedure:
    Highlight all pages to be numbered
    Right click and select Number pages
    Ie. Numbering begin new section
    Prefix Chap 1 Page
    Start 1
    OK
    On the final page of the chapter repeat above but:
    Chap 1 Page 9/
    Start 10
    OK
    All subsequent chapters are numbered accordingly.
    I now want to add some pages to Chapter 1 because of an amendment. Page 9/10 will become 9 and pages 10 to 13/14 will be added.
    I insert 5 blank pages at the end of the chapter, then drop the amended pages on to the blank pages and renumber the thumbnails.
    Any subsequent chapters and their thumbnail page numbering should not be affected. -- this does not happen the pages are knocked on
    If I delete any page or extract and delete then all thumbnail page numbering disappears. --- This does not happen all chaptering dissappears and normal page numbering is in place.
    Any hekp or advice would be appreciated. Thanks

    I've never heard of the problem. But what I'd do is to figure out which of the source PDFs is causing the problem. Try recreating the combined PDF file by removing one page/section at a time to try to isolate it. It could be that that source PDF needs to be recreated.

  • Disable thumbnail preview

    I have a layered PDF and need to create a slideshow of each layer. By the first page I can toggle layers on or off on each new page, but Acrobat insists on building thumbnails pages and it really slows the process down. How do I tell Acrobat Pro 9 I do NOT want page thumbnail images?

    Doesn't look like there's any way to do that. In the drop-down there's even a command to remove embedded page thumbnails but it didn't seem to do anything. Is it still slow if you keep the Pages navigation panel closed and only have the Layers open?

  • 2 questions: Thumbnail page and Comment page

    I have created a class reunion site -
    http://www.risd41.org/ri/alumni/1968/index.htm
    using Dreamweaver MX 2004 (I'm a newb!).
    (1) I now have over 200 photos that I'd like to be able
    create a thumbnail page (or pages) for that link to the larger
    images. I have seen other software (several years ago) that
    basically takes a folder full of images and creates a linked
    thumbnail page on the fly that you can FTP along with linked images
    and your good to go. Dreamweaver have anything to do this?
    and
    (2) The site right now is static 1 way site. I'd like to have
    the center part of the main home page have the lower area allow
    visitor comments - much like a blog. How do I go about doing
    that?

    Not in dreamweaver.
    If you want static page:
    Look in Fireworks or PhotoShop or some other IMAGE EDITOR or
    thumbnail
    gallery application.
    If you want a server side application that allows photo
    uploading and
    visitor commenting, look for a script like Gallery or
    Coppermine or similar

  • HTML thumbnails page will take me to a Simple Viewer do I have to create 12 Simple Viewer galleries?

    I have created an HTML thumbnail page with 12 thumbnails. When I click on a thumbnail I would like it to take me to SV. Do I have to create 12 different SV galleries for each thumbnail?  EX: I have a project of an identity so I click on a thumbnail and it would take me to SV and I would be able to go through the different  parts of the identity: logo, business cards, postcards, posters, billboards, and apparel.  Can I just use one SV file and just use different XML files for each if so how would I do that? 

    This link shows how to do that - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Creating+a+desktop+shortcut+to+a+web+page
    There are add-ons that can be used to do this, such as:

  • Disabling Banner Page links for Page programatically

    We have created pages and page groups programatically. We would like to disable banner page links like Customize, Refresh, Login/Logout from the page programatically.
    Can any one provide us any clues in this regard.Since we have about 200+ page under 50+ groups and doing this task manually is not feasible.

    hi,
    there is currently no public API to perform this operation. if your pages are using the same navigation pages you just need to change it on one central place. this depends if you have the navigation pages under the shared objects or if you using it locally for each page group. if you have it under the shared objects for all page groups you can change it there - you just need to do it 1 time. if you are using local navigation pages for each page group you need to change this for every page group.
    regards,
    christian

  • How can I permanently disable automatic page updates?

    When I log into my Yahoo e-mail I get the following message:If you are using a screen reader and having problems using Mail, it might help to disable automatic page updates. Please note, this will also disable chat and text messaging within Yahoo! Mail. You can toggle automatic updates on and off using the link below. (Disable automatic page updates.) How can I permanently disable this in Firefox. I don't have these issues with IE8.

    I have this same problem and it occurs with other websites (like ESPN.com) too. Only I don't get the option of disabling automatic page updates on other websites. I disabled and reinstalled Mozilla and it went away for a short while. About two weeks later the same problem popped back up.

  • How do I turn a thumbnail page into a attachment

    How do I turn a thumbnail page into a attachment?

    Can you give us some more details. I can't tell what you are asking.

  • I want tabs to open at google.ca as they did before I got rid of the bing bar. Have gone to options and set it there but I still get the thumbnail page. Thx.

    Instead I get the thumbnail page which Id rather not have. I x'ed out all the thumbnails so only the google.ca one is there but it's not a full page, just a thumbnail. I realize I can enlarge it. This is not a huge problem but I would like it solved.

    Just to lay out the recipe all in one place:
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''newtab''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Double-click the '''browser.newtab.url''' preference and enter your preferred page:
    * ''Page thumbnails (default)'' => about:newtab
    * ''Blank tab'' => about:blank
    * ''Built-in Firefox home page'' => about:home
    * ''Any other page'' => full URL to the page
    Press Ctrl+t to open a new tab and verify that it worked. Fixed?
    Note: as per cor-el's suggestion, open the Google page you want and copy the "final" URL from the address bar to paste in when you update this setting. If you use a shortened version, then Google will send Firefox a redirect every time, which is a waste.

  • Navigation Panel Pages button not displaying thumbnail pages

    Version of Acrobat = Standard 8.0.0
    OS = Win XP SP2
    Networked Dell Optiplex 620
    61.6GB Free disk space
    No error messages
    The Navigation Panel Pages button will not display pages in thumbnail format.
    When clicked the highlight around the button icon changes from a square with rounded corners, to just rounded corners on the left of the highlight. The right hand side of the highlight is cut off straight as if by the thumbnail panel that isnt visible.
    This behaviour is also repeated on the Bookmarks and Signatures buttons in the navigation Panel as well.
    Fiddling around with all the navigation panel settings or the document settings I can find has not made the thumbnail pages reappear.
    I havent been able to access the Updates section of the Adobe website today to apply any relevant updates.
    Cheers.

    Just in case, I would go through the updates to get AA8.1.2 and check if that was a bug in 8.0.0.

  • Is it possible to disable All Pages button in Results

    Hellow Gurus,
    I am displaying only 10 rows per page in Table result. My user should able to go next page click on “Next Page” button. But we want to delete / disable “All Pages” button only . Is it possible in OBIEE? If yes how can we do this one.
    I really appreciated for your help.

    You can do this by following way
    Modify javascript method 'RTScroll' in C:\OracleBI\web\app\res\b_mozilla\tableview.js
    function RTScroll(sViewID, tbl, sStart)
    if(sStart == -1)
    sStart=0;
    if (WBCheckChanges(tbl))
    return;
    var sViewIdToRefresh = saw.view.getRefreshStatePath(sViewID,"tableView");
         var tForm = GetViewForm(sViewID,sViewIdToRefresh);
         tForm.Action.value = "Scroll";
         tForm.StateAction.value = "samePageState";
         tForm.P5.value = sStart;
         submitViewForm(tForm,null);
    Hope it helped you
