Every time I change my home page then close Firefox, when I start it up again, my new home page is replaced by a search window...how do I change my home page?

In prior versions of Firefox I had three tabs pop up when I started the program. I load the addresses for those same three tabs into my home page setting under options...close Firefox...then start it up again and the tabs don't get saved. Not sure where I'm going wrong...this process worked in earlier versions.

After trying many of the suggestions found online I found that the only thing that worked was to completely uninstall firefox and re-install it again!

  • Every time I want to download an app From AppStore when I start downloading it after I write my password there is warning that says to me that it isn't possible right now to download power DVD mobile even now were this app is deleted from my ipad

    Every time I want to download an app From AppStore when I start downloading it after I write my password there is warning that says to me that it isn't possible right now to download power DVD mobile even now were this app is deleted from my ipad

    The power DVD app is active, and seems to download ok.  You have already deleted the app? 
    I suspect what is happeneing is that a download is in your queue, and is blocking the queue until it completes, thus the message every time you try to do a down load.  It may be failing because while it thinks you have the app, it is not finding it, and doesn't know what to do.  ( sounds like a poorly designed download).
    I think the way around this might be for you to resync with your iTunes, and let it reload the app onto your pad.  Let it complete the download.  Then, if you do not want the app, delete it again from your pad, and if you never want it, from I tunes as well.
    The next time they do an update, you may wind up in the same situation, so if it happens again, until they fix the download routine, you will get stuck again.
    So try the suggestion, and see if this clears it out.
    The other option would be to open your account in I tunes on your computer, let it complete the download there.

  • Why do i get a run time error box pop up and then close itunes when I search in the iTunes store?

    Wnen i search in the itunes store, a ren time error pops up and then closes my itunes. why is it doing this? I have to go thru power search to get around the problem and is not as convenient. thanks, Jamboy72

    This issue can be caused by the presence of leftover files in the Firefox program folder (defaults\pref) like a file firefox.js that overrides the update URL with a wrong link.
    Do a clean reinstall and be sure to remove the Firefox program folder to remove the file(s) that cause the problem.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the 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 have pop ups blocked but every time I change web pages I get a pop up. How do I stop this?

    I went to the TOOLS and OPTIONS and checked the box to BLOCK POP UPS but still every time I change web pages, no matter what they are, I get a pop up. Please help me to stop this. This is very annoying.

    Do a malware check with some malware scan programs. You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.

  • When creating a new window in safari, using command T, the marker have not activated the search field. It means you have to click there every time. Changed after upgrading to Mavericks. Anyone knows how to change this?

    Yes, you can do something like that. What you would do is create a button for each image and then hide them. When I do this type of thing I place all of the buttons on a template page and then hide the template.
    You can then use JavaScript to copy the icon from any of the hidden buttons to the main button that you've set up to display the image. For example, suppose you set up 10 buttons named b1, b2, b3, ...b10. The code to copy the icon from one of them to the button used to display the image (b0) would be something like this:
    // Get the icon from the b3 button
    var oIcon = getField("b3").buttonGetIcon();
    // Get  reference to the b0 button
    var f = getField("b0");
    // Set the icon of the b0 button to the icon retrieved from the hidden button
    f.buttonSetIcon(oIcon);
    // Show the b0 button
    f.display = display.visible;
    This code would go in the Mouse Up event of the smaller button.

  • Every time I click print in Pages I get the beach ball and my mac freezes.

    I just updated to the newest version of pages and every time I click print in pages I get the beach ball and my mac freezes. Any suggestions on fixing this? I've tried shutting down and restarting several times...nothing seems to be working and I'm loosing/wasting time trying to fix this...

    Hey there nmiller0528,
    It sounds like you are unable to print from Pages at all from your computer. I want to recommend troublehsooting the Mac OS for print issues with this article named:
    Troubleshooting printer issues in OS X
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3147
    Follow these steps until the issue is addressed:
    Make sure that the printer is powered on, has ink / toner, and that there are no alerts on the printer’s control panel. Note: If you cannot clear an alert on the printer's control panel, stop here and check the printer's documentation or contact the manufacturer for support.
    Ensure the printer is properly connected to a USB port on the Mac or AirPort base station / Time Capsule. If the printer is a network-capable printer, make sure that it is properly connected to your home network.
    Use Software Update to find and install the latest available updates. If an update is installed, see if the issue persists.
    Open the Print & Scan pane or Print & Fax (Snow Leopard) pane in System Preferences.
    Delete the affected printer, then add the printer again.
    If the issue persists, try these additional steps:
    Reset the printing system, then add the printer again.
    If the issue still persists, reset the printing system again.  Download and install your printer's drivers. Then, add the printer again.
    Contact the printer vendor or visit their website for further assistance.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • Why do three new tabs open every time I press the "home" icon?

    Three new tabs open every time I press the home icon. I and two others have looked through all my settings and have contacted Mozilla (no response) and can't figure out why this is happening? Anyone have a clue how to stop this incredibly annoying problem from continuing?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Upon install of Windows 7

    See [[How to set the home page]]: Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' symbols.
    See also http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved and [[Preferences are not saved]]
    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]

  • On opening and every time I click the home icon, a second tab opens entitled "customizing firefoxx with add-ons

    I tried uninstall and reinstall of Firefox but the pesky tab still opens every time I click the home icon. To make it worse I get a new tab every time which means I can have multiple customizing tabs opening during a single session. How can I stop this happening?

    In Options/General you must have more than one Home page selected.
    More about Options here. [[Options window - General panel]]

  • How come every time I change my password for iCloud, iMessage, Apple, it either messes up on my Mac or iPhone.

    How come every time I change my password for iCloud, iMessage, Apple, it either messes up on my Mac or iPhone.

    I'm not sure what you mean by "messes up", but the most common reason to have trouble with one device after changing the password from another is that you have to actually go around to all of your devices and change the saved password for your Apple ID on each one if you change it on one of them, they don't update automatically.  If you change the password and don't change it on your devices, then they don't know the password has changed until you try to use them.
