Firefox 8.01-- automatically loads the "Getting Started With Mozilla... " page

Firefox 8.01-- every time I start up, it automatically loads the "Getting Started With Mozilla... " page along with my Home page tab. How do I prevent the "Getting Started..." tab from opening?

Hi ricklord303,
You should take a look at the Knowledge Base article [[How to set the home page]].
There are steps in that article to reset your homepage preferences to default. I would try that first to clear out any strangeness. If that works, you can try setting your homepage again to your personal preference.
If that doesn't work you should look at [https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Firefox+has+just+updated+tab+shows+each+time+you+start+Firefox this article about that specific issue] and the article [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved Preferences not saved].
Hopefully this helps!

How can I disable: 1.the annoying "checking compatibility add-ons", and 2.: the "Getting started with Mozilla"page , every time I start Firefox?

I installed Google as my starting page, but I still get the Mozilla page first.

How do I stop the "Getting Started with Mozilla Firefox" tab from opening every time I open FF?

Every time I open FF, the "Getting Started with Mozilla Firefox" tab opens. I have checked and it's not in my homepage list.
If I open any additional windows, it doesn't open.
But, once I close all of them and reopen it again, the tab opens.
I've had a similar problem with a couple addons (ietab) doing the same thing.

about:config is typed into the address bar as if you were going to a web page.
It will popup a message warning you that you are messing with important stuff.
Just agree.

How do I stop the Getting started with Mozilla Firefox page from opening everytime I start Firefox. If I have to see that everytime then I will delete Firefox for good...!!!!

Everytime I start firefox since the last update I can't get the stupid Getting started with firefox page to stop opening up. I downloaded the version 8 and it still opens ..

Well the latest and Greatest Firefox Version 8.0. Won't let me change my home page no matter what I do it always comes back with the getting started page and my orignal home page.
What a piece of garbage it is turning into..!!!!

How can I stop the loading of "Getting Started with Mozilla Firefox?", which has greatly slowed down the startup of Firefox.

Firefox used to start up fairly quickly, but now it loads an additional more complicated tab, which has greatly slowed down the start up process. How can I eliminate the loading of this time waster?

Yes I checked it. As far as I can see I did everything Apple said to do. I took some screen shot so you can see how the screens are connected and what and where the code is, and what it does when I drag the cancel and done bar buttons to the exit

How do I eliminate the "getting started with firefox" page that appears everytime I click on my home page?

Every time I click on my home page I get an additional window "Getting Started with Firefox". How do I eliminate this?

How do I get rid of the 3 extra tabs that appear when I start Firefox? they are: Getting Started with Mozilla, Video downloadHelper, and Tab Mix Plus?

Errors in the "Getting Started with the FPGA Module" examples

We have LabView 8.0, the NI-5640R, and the LabView FPGA module installed on a computer with the IF-RIO board, and we are trying to compile the provided NI examples (NI-5640R documentation), but we receive errors that say "sub VI is not executable" and "you have connected terminals of two different types" Why are the existing NI VI's not compiling properly? We are guessing that we have some configuration error, though we aren't sure.

The run error is broken and gives the option to list and locate errors, though these errors are found everywhere in the files that are provided in the NI-5640R. Several wires have red x's that say that different types are attempting to be wired, and multiple blocks are highlighted that list errors that say that the blocks cannot be activated. It seems like there is a problem with how the software and board has been installed. The group that used the board before us had a functioning project, although they but the IF-RIO in their own computers, so they might not have put everything back together properly. Their old VI's produce the same errors on our computer. Do you have any suggestions on what to do?

What happened to the 'Getting started with video' forum?

Where is it? I have not been able to find it anywhere since the change to the new forums.
The "Other Pro Video" would seem to be a possibly logical location, but most of the posts there are about Shake.

It's content is now under Final Cut Express HD.

I upgrade firefox from 7 to 8 and now when i start firefox everytime it opens "getting start with firefox" page, in options i select the option 'show a blank page" how can i resolve this issue?

i upgrade firefox from version 7 to version 8, now when i start firefox everytime it open self the "getting start with firefox" website, in the options on firefox i select the 'show a blank page' but its not working. i am using firefox on windows XP- SP2.

Try restarting Firefox, the one time page(s) after starting a new release should disappear. Actually this last time with 8.0 they did not come up for me.
If that doesn't work then bring up '''about:config''' and place the url of the page into the filter. Right-click on anything that comes up and use "Reset".

Can not get example to work after following instructions given in "Getting Started with the NI LabVIEW C Generator" guide

We explored using sbRIO for our project, for different reasons we ended up going with a different embedded solution . We are currently evaluating the LabVIEW C Generator to convert some of the core analysis routines from LabVIEW to C so the team that will be creating the embedded solution don't have to re-implement them from scratch.
Before converting our code, I followed the instructions given in the "Getting Started with the NI LabVIEW C Generator" manual to create a static library created inCygwin using GNU Compiler Collection (GCC).
I managed to compile the code, but when I type "run GCD.exe" in the Cygwin console, I just see the window flash with no time to see if the result is correct or not. I modified the main.c cde to add a getchar(), but the window still just flashes and now I am left with the GCD process still running and have to kill it using Windows Task Manager.
Has anyone else got this example to run? I am sure I am missing an obvious setting or step, please help me.
More details below.
Thanks,
Fab
Here is a video showing the steps I followed
If you don't want/can't see the video. Here are some screenshots of what I have done so far:
GratestCommonDivisor.lvproj C Generation build specs Information:
C Function prototype definition:
I copied Makefile located at: C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2011\examples\CGenerator\Tutorial\Cygwin
and replaced both Makefile and Makefile.cygwin in the directory where the C code was generated
I also copied main.c from the same location and replaced the one generated
Here is the snapshot of the results after executing "make GCD.exe"
Then to run it I just type
I see a window open and close really quickly and I never see the result. I have tried adding the getchar() line to the main.c file, but still I don't get to see the results.

Hi Kevin,
I hope you had a good Thanksgiving. I am attaching a zip file with the LabVIEW project, my build specification and my version of "Greatest Common Divisor.vi", which should be the same as the one that you have that ships with the LabVIEW C Generator, but just in case. I am also attaching a zip file with the C files generated by the LabVIEW C Generator.
You can also see the video I posted earlier with the steps I followed. I hope you are able to point out where I went wrong.
Thanks,

Getting started with the compliance checker

I just downloaded the vSPhere compliance checkers, 1 for 5.0, 5.1, and 5.5. When I run the tool against the appropriate vcenter I only get results from 5 hosts.
What do I need to be able to get results from all hosts within vCenter? is this only something that can be done using vRealize Configuration manager?
Please share you knowledge of compliance tools so that I can move forward with the proper solution(s)..
Thanks in advance!

Here is the updated version of the manual: http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/372946c.pdf
I went to ni.com/manuals and looked for the Getting Started with LabVIEW DSC and found a more recent version that has the correct links. Unfortunately when searching via Google, the older version pops up first.
