Every time i close FireFox , it do not remeber my proxy settings

I use FF for my company web development and every time i open it for the first time it shows the error message for the default home page
"The proxy server is refusing connections".
I have to go to Tools -> options -> Net work Tab -> settings
Fix the radio button to "Auto Detect Proxy for this network" and save it.
I have to do this every single time i star the FF. I observed it on few other machine in my office
Can you help me in resolving this .

  • Why is it that every time I start Firefox I have to fix the proxy settings in the connection area of options?

    Every time I start Firefox I have to click on Tools, go to Options, then under the Connections tab select settings and change the proxy to "no proxy" from "Manual Configuration". Why is this doing this?

  • When I open firefox it is returning to the last viewed page instead of my homepage even though I have the settings set to clear history every time I close Firefox. I check and all of the previous history is still there and not deleted..

    Make sure that Firefox closes properly and that that there are no longer Firefox or plugin-container processes left on the Processes tab in the Task Manager. Otherwise session restore will reopen the page(s) from the previous session.

  • How can I stop Acrobat Reader from popping up every time I close Firefox?

    Every time I close Firefox, after my browser window closes, Acrobat Reader pops up. Is there a way to stop this from happening. I already went into the "Add-Ons" and disabled it, but it continues to occur.

    It doesn't :-) I was desperate, there is nowhere on the Internet giving the information on how to block pop-ups on just IE (not all of Microsoft) But thank you anyway. :-) FYI I installed IE 9 then deleted IE all together.

  • After I close Firefox I am unable to reopen, I get a message that I can't reopen until I close it, but it is already closed. This is happening almost every time I close Firefox. I have to restart my computer in order to open Firefox.

  • I use speeddial addon and it now keeps going off every time I close firefox and I need to reinstall it every time. What can I do to stop this happening? Thanks!

    My homepage now says
    XML Parsing Error: no element found
    Location: chrome://speeddial/content/speeddial.xul
    Line Number 1, Column 1
    every time I open firefox.
    I then have to reinstall speeddial every time I start up. This never used to happen before and I don't think I've changed any settings.

    Been in touch with the author of the product and got the following reply:
    The problem is the SiteAdvisor extension that McAfee installs; go to Tools > Add-ons, in the resulting panel select "Extensions", locate SiteAdvisor, click on it to select, and then click the "Disable" button; Speed Dial will work perfectly after that.
    I already contacted them to attempt to fix the problem, but no reply so far. The problem happens before any Speed Dial code is executed, so I don't think I can fix it on my side.
    Don't have the problem any more, note I had a McAfee update just before the problem started happening.

    ''dupe of https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/915561''
    I cant confirm the email because firefox WILL NOT OPEN......THIS IS MY PROBLEM

    Check that you do not run Firefox as Administrator.
    Right-click the Firefox desktop shortcut and choose "Properties".
    Make sure that all items are deselected in the "Compatibility" tab of the Properties window.
    * Privilege Level: "Run this program as Administrator" should not be selected
    * "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" should not be selected
    Also check the Properties of the firefox.exe program in the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\).

  • Every time I close Firefox I lose my address and seach bar.

    When I close or "X" out of Fire fox then go back in (even after a few seconds) I lose my Address bar and Search bar. I have tried resetting the defaults and adding in the other icons (cut, copy, past, print, ect...) and have even created a tool bar just for the two.

    no luck deleted the file and restarted FF but after making changes (adding a tool bar for URL and search), closing and re-opening I still lost the added tool bar.
    Edit: The two do stay if I don't add the extra bar. Thanks for the help I'm just going to have to get use to it I guess.

  • After upgrading to the newer version of Firefox, a lose all my tabs every time I close. I've done what was suggested in the FAQx, but I still lose them all when I close. I want to fix this. How?

    I want to know how to have my tabs save when I close Firefox. I did what was suggested in the FAQs section, but all my tabs disappear every time I close Firefox, whether using the "exit" command, or the "X" button. This was the very reason I never updated to the new version previously, but had hoped that the problem had been addressed and upgraded, now I'm stuck with having to reopen every tab every time I open Firefox. Please tell me there is a way to correct this. And, I'm not fluent in technospeak, so I need simple, basic instructions. Thank you. Mark

    Hi,
    Pressing '''Alt''' + '''T''' on the keyboard brings up the '''Tools''' menu.
    To see the full menu bar temporarily, press '''Alt''' or '''F10'''.
    To make the menu bar permanently visible, right-click on the '''+''' after the last tab and enable (tick) '''Menu Bar''' or press '''Alt''' + '''V''' > '''Toolbars''' > '''Menu Bar'''.

  • Flash uninstalls every time I restart firefox

    Every time I close Firefox, Flash uninstalls. Every time. I am getting tired of reinstalling manually every time I want to view a site that uses Flash. Please help!

    Did you try creating a new Firefox profile ?
    Did you succeed in getting a new clean profile running, one with no add-ons, and only the default bookmarks lists ?
    * open the new profile in Firefox's [[safe mode]], check it has no plugins listed, or if it has uninstall them whilst in safe mode
    * restart firefox again using this new profile and check it shows no add-ons or plugins.
    * just to be sure restart your computer and check again
    If so did you then try to open that new profile and install the Flash player plugin into it.
    May also need to consider
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
    A clean reinstall may solve the problem but do not try that yet, because you could loose information. You are mentioning multiple profiles by this I guess you are referring to having multiple Windows accounts on your computer
    * is that correct ?
    ** or are you for instance using multiple Firefox profiles already from a single Windows account
    * do all users have bookmarks and/or passwords that you may like to retain ?

  • Firefox 5 does not remember changed speed tweaks. Every time I close the browser they revert to the standard setting..what gives!

    '''Moderator note: Locked as dupe of [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/843444 843444] --T'''

    Now up to Firefox 8 and the problem persists. Cannot go to the www.turnitin.com page and login as I used to do -- Firefox does not remember my username or password.
    Still works on Windows, and with other browsers... It would be great if a fix is available.

  • Not a crash, but Firefox is logging me out every time I close it

    This just started. I have to login every time & it also clears history and cookies every time I close.
