FF always starts at Welcome at Welcome at fireofx page. Does not remember homepage

Hello,
On my laptop using Windows 7 I use FF 31.0
When I start this in my account it starts at the Welcome at firefox and shows me the choice to take the intro
When I close this page, I get the google page from the next tab.
I then type a URL and store this as home page.
When I know restart FF, it opens with Welcome at Firefox and the pop-up to take the intro, but it does not show the home page. When I check, the location for Homepage is empty
From the administrator account I have reinstalled Firefox. No use.
In the administrator account it seem to work fine
This question is sent from another PC, not the laptop having the issue

You can check the home page setting:
*Tools > Options > General > Startup: Home page
Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' (pipe) symbols.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
You can check for problems with preferences.
Delete a possible user.js file 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 home page does not always display correctly, hence I cannot do anything

    On my Dell laptop the FireFox home page does not always fully display. When this happens I cannot access several web sites and some that I can do not display correctly either. On some occasions everything works correctly.
    I have 2 Dell Inspiron laptops the same except one is running Vista (the one that does not always work) and one running Windows 7 (this one has no problems).

  • When I start ver 4 the first time 10 to 15 blank windows open and does not remember pin tabs?

    When I open version 4 the first time, 10 to 15 blank windows open up. it does not remember any pinned tabs or go to my home page.

    Make sure that you not run Firefox in [[Private Browsing]] mode.
    In Private Browsing mode some menu items are disabled (grayed) and some features like visited links and others are disabled and not working.
    You are in Private Browsing mode if you see "Tools > Stop Private Browsing".
    See [[Private Browsing]] and http://kb.mozillazine.org/Issues_related_to_Private_Browsing
    You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
    To see all History settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting '''Firefox will: Use custom settings for history'''
    UnCheck: [[ ] "Automatically start Firefox in a private browsing session"
    Another possibility is that there is a problem with the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
    Delete the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak and any existing files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js .

    I just recently up graded from AI CS6 to AI CC and I am having issues with my pen tool. If I create a starting point and then make another point it does not allow me to make the second point an end point. The pen tool stays active and I either have to click to isolate the path or I have to return to the first point and close the path. Please help.

    artisttouch,
    If you cannot close the Pen Tool by switching to another tool, as a temporary measure you may try pressing P (for Pen).
    To solve it, you may try the list.
    The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
    If possible/applicable, you should save curent artwork first, of course.
    1) Close down Illy and open again;
    2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
    3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
    4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
    5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
    Even more seriously, you may:
    6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

  • The crash report always appears whenever I start up my PC and open Firefox, it does not appear when I close Firefox.

    Everytime I start up my PC and open Firefox, the crash report will appear. The crash report does not appear subsequently, it only appears when I first open Firefox. I do not seem to have problems when using Firefox otherwise, though I do get new Firefox windows opening and showing me spam.

  • After installing or upgrading to Firefox 31, starting Firefox does not show homepage, customize shows a blank page and the option button does not work

    I am the Windows admin for a university department and install PCs with Firefox all the time. This problem does not happen with every PC I maintain, only a select few (different model laptops with Windows 8.1 and update 1.) Until today, it only happened with new user accounts (with admin rights) that I setup on the laptops for our staff. Today this happened with The Administrator account while setting up a new laptop. In all cases so far, I install Windows from a saved image that was created using sysprep.
    I have tried the many suggestions of resetting Firefox, deleting the users Firefox profile, deleting the users Windows profile, uninstalling/reinstalling Firefox, uninstalling/reinstalling Firefox and the latest Java, but nothing helps. After uninstalling, I run an app to delete temp files and caches and will even manually remove registry keys HKLM\SOFTWARE\Mozilla and HKCU\SOFTWARE\Mozilla. Plus I reboot and make sure the install folder is deleted after uninstall.
    Results are the same: after installing Firefox 31, the initial setup window for migrating IE and/or Chrome pops up and after clicking the Finish button, Firefox starts, but does not show the initial new user page, only a blank page. Clicking on the Options button (3 bars) does nothing. Right-clicking in the proper area, the popup menu appears so I can choose to Customize, but that only opens another tab with about:customize in the URL and the page is blank. From the right-click popup menu, I can enable the Menu Bar and get to Options from that.
    My latest attempt has helped a little. I uninstalled Firefox 31, cleaned up, deleted user Firefox profile, rebooted and then installed Firefox 30. Inital startup runs, and tells me I'm not up to date, and the Options button works. But I still cannot customize.
    I then upgraded to Firefox 31, but then it's back to no startup page, no options button and no customize. I can downgrade to 30 and get all but customize working again.
    Only Addon is one for McAfee Scriptscan for Firefox 15.1.0, which just after installing is disabled.
    Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

    Ok. I disabled hardware acceleration. The only extension is the McAfee Scriptscan for Firefox 15.1.0, which was already disabled. I then disabled all plugins (Acrobat, Google Update, Intel Identity Protection (2x), Java Deployment Toolkit, Java Platform, MS Office 2013, Quicktime, Shockwave, Silverlight), which were all up to date.
    Normal or safe mode still has same result. No startup, no option button and no customize.
    Thanks for your help. Got any other suggestions?

  • Always Script Editor ... Alt Gr key does not work

    Hi,
    With IE6 in SQL Script Editor
    Alt Gr Key does not work.
    For instance, I cannot type ||
    In fact it's a copy-paste from SQL command (which works well)
    Note Script Editor does not work with Firefox.
    Thank you for any information

    You might try this:

  • V 3.6.3 on Mac Snow Leopard. Often, but not always, my iGoogle home page does not load.

    Using latest Snow Leopard on my Mac and Firefox v 3.6.3, since latest update my iGoogle homepage does not always load, sometimes just a blank Google page and I then have to click the homepage icon to load. After the first time used in any session, it will always load correctly. Sometimes it loads correctly, no apparent pattern.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == The latest version was installed......I THINK

    Google is my homepage. Recently, when I type a search query from Google's homepage, nothing happens. I mean absolutely nothing. No error, no "loading page" messages. Nothing. When I type the search in the Google toolbar, the search engine works fine. Anyone else having this problem and if so, how do you fix it?
    Thanks in advance...

  • Dispatch to custom 401 page does not always happen

    hi,
    I configured custom error401.jspx page to be dispatched to if user enters invalid credentials at login page or if authenticated user attempts direct url access to a page he is not authorized to access. This works most of the time, but sometimes instead of dispatching to 401 page system dispatches to Login page (the user is already logged in so this should not happen!). When this happens Login page looks like original ADF faces page but "face" color is lost, i.e. page is all black and white and it contains message Invalid username and password.
    I configured ADF security to also dispatch to this 401 page in case of unauthorized access.
    I am using jdev 10.1.3.2.
    What is causing this behavior? It seems to happen more often on standalone than embedded oc4j. I checked web.xml and everything points to custom 401 page if unauthorized attempt. userInfo managed bean is identical to SRDemo.
    Is there a workaround?

    Hi,
    it is not loss of session as if I click Back button on browser I can proceed with application as currently logged in user.
    I reproduce this in following way:
    - I try to login as userA/roleA with wrong credentials
    => system dispatches to error401 page.....................OK
    - on error401 page I click Home button which replicates SRLogout backing bean function...OK
    => system re-renders Login page...............OK
    - I login as userA with correct credentials
    => system renders welcome page.............OK
    - I use application as userA..................OK
    - I try to access page accessible only to userB/roleB, using direct url access
    => system dispatches to error401 page...........................OK
    - On error401 page (or clicking Back button on browser to go to previous page) I, (still logged in as userA/roleA) try to direct url access page belonging to userC/roleC
    => this time oc4j immediately dispatches to Login page (instead of error401 page) with message Invalid username and password...................................NOT OK
    So it seems first time only it dispatches correctly but subsequent attempts it always go to Login page although session is not expired
