  • Firefox opens multiple blank windows while starting

    Whenever I start Firefox, it loads multiple blank windows. It happens everytime I load it, though once in a while, it loads correctly i.e. loads the tabs which were open when I had closed it. Other than that, only plain windows which I have to close manually and then restore the last set of tabs from History>>Recently Closed Windows options. I have already set the following options to true to make the restore closed tabs feature working [as was suggested here in the forums]:
    browser.tabs.warnOnClose
    browser.warnOnQuit
    browser.warnOnRestart
    browser.showQuitWarning
    Any fix for it?

    If you use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the 'Browsing History' when you close Firefox then restoring tabs from the last session ("Save & Quit" or "Show my windows and tabs from last time") doesn't work.

  • GMail in Safari w/FluidApp opens up blank window when clicking externally

    I'm currently using FluidApp to create a stand-alone instance of GMail in Safari. This works great for quickly switching to GMail as I can just type G using Quicksilver and I'm there right away.
    However, I'm noticing something annoying in that whenever I click a link in my email to an external website Safari opens up another window that I need to close in addition to wherever the website opened. So my path basically goes GMail > view external website > leave external website to return to GMail > close annoying blank window > Go back to GMail.
    Any idea why this is happening?

    You should check Preferences > General to see that you've enabled the "Open links from applications:" in a new tab in the current window. Then restart Safari and test to see if the problem is resolved.

  • How to open multiple report windows on button click without losing session?

    Hi,
    JDev : 11.1.1.2.0
    I am trying to open multiple discoverer plus report windows using my ADF application.
    My requirement is that user has to select multiple reports from the screen and by clicking on submit button all the reports should be opened in different windows.
    1) Below link provided me the the first solution but I can't go with it because my page is jsff and in jsff it doesn't support form tag.
    http://andrejusb.blogspot.com/2007/07/opening-report-window-in-adf-faces.html
    2) RichGoButton also provide targetFrame property but there is not action property in it so I can't call backing bean method with RichGoButton
    3) I have tried to open report windows using javascript window.open with ExtendedRenderKitService but on discoverer side it giving error message that Discoverer Plus cannot attach same session to multiple request.
    4) I have created one jsp page in the same folder where my jsff is kept in my ADF application and on submit button click I have launch this jsp page using afConetxt.launchDialog and in jsp scriplet I have written response.sendRedirect to report url but here all report are getting open properly to seperate windwos but my ADF application session is getting timeout so after clicking on submit button it will automatically goes to login page it cann't stay with the current page.
    Hoe you have understnad my problem and please provide me if you know any other solution aprart from above mentioned 4 solutions
    Regards,
    DevD

    sURL is query parameter value that I want to pass on jsp page. It is used to set some value on jsp page.
    If this is not a right approach then let me know how to pass the parameter in jsp page.

  • Firefox freezes then opens multiple blank instances, can't stop it

  • Firefox won't open multiple secondary windows in OS X. It does in Windows.

    For my work as a psychologist I rely on a website called TherapyAppointment.com for practice management. The website works best in Firefox because of the secondary windows feature. For example, I can have files open for several patients at once, have a tab for my calendar, etc. This worked fine on my Windows PC but I have just changed to a Mac and Firefox for OS doesn't behave as it did in Windows. Nor does it do so in Safari, but I sort of expected this. I hope there is a fix because my work is much easier when secondary windows are working right.

    What method do you use for launching additional windows? For example, if you are accessing the windows using links, usually one of these will work:
    * hold down the Shift key when clicking
    * right-click the link > Open Link in New Window
    I know that Shift+click can be defeated by a script in the page that overrides your selection, but hopefully you do not have to fight the site...

  • I use mozilla firefox start page as my homepage, because I can restore my previous session. A game I DL'd made Bing my search engine on that page! In Internet Options, I changed my default to google, but it searches Bing every time! How do I fix this?

    I do a search, and it diverts to the MSN game site, then gives Bing search results. Bing is not my search engine anywhere else, just on the Mozilla page.

    Thank you, thank you, thank you, the-edmeister, thank you! I am in your debt, sir!

  • Why does Firefox stop opening new browser windows when "Sync" is running?

    I downloaded and installed Firefox Sync v1.4 to my Firefox v.3.6.10
    While Sync is running, Firefox will not open a new window when I do any of the following:
    * Click "New Window" from the File menu.
    * Click "Open in a new window" from right-clicking a tab.
    * Click a link with JavaScript to open the target in a new window.
    No error messages, just no action. I updated Sync to the newest version 1.5 but the problem still exists. Disabling either version in the Add-ons window "fixed" the problem. Is there a setting that causes this problem? Are others experiencing this same problem?

    Firefox 3.5 versions and later have a feature called tear-off tabs.<br />
    You can detach a tab from the current window and open it in a new window by dragging a tab in the browser window.<br />
    You can drag that tab back to the tab bar in the original window to undo that detaching.
    bug489729 (Disable detach and tear off tab):
    *https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bug489729-disable-detach-and-t
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration 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.

  • I just updated to 4.0.1 and I get the "We're sorry. Firefox had a problem and crashed. We will try to open your tabs/windows when Firefox restarts" However, it just keeps popping back up, firefox never restarts!!!

    This morning I had a popup on my Windows XP PC stating that the 4.0.1 update was available. I upgraded. now, i receive the following error: We're sorry. Firefox had a problem and crashed. We will try to open your tabs/windows when Firefox restarts. You can submit crash report data, blah blah blah (which i have submitted several)
    But, firefox DOES NOT ever open. It just pops back up with that same report window, over and over.

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
    Delete [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
    * Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
    If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note).

  • Firefox 4 sometimes displays a blank window instead of a PDF with Adobe Reader X

    This is with Firefox 4 or 5.
    When I try to display a statement from my bank web site, it opens a blank window and nothing else. This is using Adobe Reader X. I reinstalled the Reader X with no difference.
    I am running Windows XP Pro, SP3.

    I have troubleshooted this issue and have found what I think is a resolution.
    The cause of this issue seems to be Profiles.
    Previously when running firefox 3 I had multiple profiles setup. when deciding to update to firefox 4 I removed these old profiles.
    When installing firefox 4 for some reason it used a "default" named profile, and this caused the problems I described above.
    RESOLUTION:
    Ran firefox.exe -ProfileManager
    created a new profile, it named itself "Default User" I then selected the new default and tested. The window behavior is now acting as it should wothout the above problems.
    I deleted the old profile and now it works, using the new profile.
