Firefox does not save my tabs and windows from last time, although i have already set it so (on a Macbook) (newest version)

If you use [[Clear Recent History]] in Firefox 3.5 and later 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.

I set the prefferance to show tabs and windows from last session but every time i power down my firefox or my Mac all my app tabs and windows disapear. what's wrong with my settings.

I set my preferences to '''show all tabs and windows from last session''' and un-checked the box for '''don't load tabs until selected''' but every time I turn off fire fox and power down my Mac all my app tabs disappear.

Make sure that you do not use Clear Recent History to clear the <i>Browsing History</i> when you close Firefox.

Firefox does not save my tabs or sessions when I shut down my computer

To be more clear:
Yes, I have set my options to "show windows and tabs from last time".
No, I did not check "clear memory on shut down" or "start private session"
Also, it saves my tabs when I restart the browser, but when I shut down my computer and start up again, Firefox does not show my tabs from last time. The same thing happens with sites I've logged onto before; it logs me out after I shut down my computer.

Did you check the "Clear Recent History" settings to be sure cthat you do not clear the Browser history and the cookies?

I then found one suggestion that the problem might involve permissions. The suggestion was to right click PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe in its installation folder (which on my computer is at at D:\Photo\Elements 11 Organizer) and run Organizer as an administrator. This also failed.
I don't understand why running the exe from the installation folder would have worked.
I would have simply tried to run that exe from its real location :
Sorry, I can't help you more about permissions...

Remember windows from last time

When Firefox starts: show my windows from last time.
I have set it many times to remember from last time but it does not work. It just stopped working today for an unknown reason. When I relaunch Firefox it is still set to remember from last time, but it does not, and always starts with the home page.
Is this a bug, or operator error?

Firefox 4 crashes all the time in addition it does not save my tabs when it says it will restore them

So I am surfing the net or watching something online then all of a sudden firefox 4 crashes it says its suppose to restore my tabs but it never does. please i want this fixed it is so annoying in addition my tabs do not save any more like they used to. like when you hit exist it suppose to ask if you want to save well it dosen't. Yes I have gone to your support page and literally done everything it said to do but none of it worked. so please help me on that too if possible.

I've had it crash on me about 10 times today. This is ridiculous. I've used firefox for years and never had as many issues with it as I have had with the latest updates. It's really disgusting how bad it is. I stopped using shittysoft internet exploder because it was so bad, but I may go back to it. I won't keep using shittyfox if they can't get it to work smoothly. This is pathetic.

Firefox does not save history and bookmarks and I can't even clear history.

Hi, I would like to ask some help regarding my firefox.
At first, I have this Mozilla Firefox 3.6.8 where it all started.
I can't remember really when, but I just noticed that I can't clear my history even though I checked all and selected "Everything". Already tried re-installing FF, still none.
Then another one is that, it does not save history. All the history it saved were from the past. No new history can be added.
Please help me..

Firefox does not save my settings when I reboot

I have Windows 7 Ultimate. I was having problems with Firefox 3.6.16 crashing to the point where it wouldn't work. I uninstalled it and downloaded version 4 but had problems with it hanging all the time. I went through the help section, one of the things I did that was recommended was to delete my sessionstore files and any extra copies. I think there were three of them. I deleted them all but Firefox 4 still was hanging.
I uninstalled 4 and reinstalled 3.6.16 again. Everything seems to be working okay except when I reboot or restart my computer it does not save all of my password logins or any special settings on websites I visit all the time. So every time I start my computer I have to log into all my sites again, and I have a lot of them so this is really a pain. I'm not sure if this has to do with deleting the sessionstore files or not. I checked and I do have one sessionstore file instead of three.
Not sure what else to try. If I leave my computer on I stay logged in to all my sites and my preferences on those sites are maintained. Anyone have any idea what's going on?

I have tried to make a backup of the bookmarks file. Renamed the old one and called the backup "bookmarks.html".
The places.sqlite file is not "secured" (there does not exist a "locked" attribute in the general tab on the Mac), so I assume it is not locked.
Nothing seems to work. Possibly I can best uninstall Firefox and try to reinstall it, or does that not solve the problem.
Otherwise I go back to Safari :-)

Firefox does not save toolbar I made

Since FF upgraded me to Firefox 23 My tool bars are messed
Every time I make a new toolbar Via "Customize" > "Add New Toolbar" after I exit it does not save.
Yes I read over 10 different articles on it.
1) I deleted the localstore.rdf and started from scratch. After 15 minutes of dragging all the icons to various toolbars I close out of Customize. I then restart Only to find my toolbar not saves and icon missing (placed back into the Customize Box)
2) Only solution ALWAYS given is going to Safe Mode and resetting everything.
That requires me to spend 5 hours backing all the settings and data I have saved in the various 189 items loaded.
Why so many? If not that many I would have to spend 6 hour more all day on my computer doing things that many of these addons do for me. Time is Money.
3) This is not the first time over the 8 years or so of using Firefox this has occured.
4) Question why doen't save when you close out of "Customize" than when you exit? Plus what in Firefox is messed up that it is not saving right?

Nope, I tried it again and added buttons to the New Tool bar I made and everything disappeared once I restarted Firefox up again. So they have not solved it. From FF 23 now on FF26 and it has not been fixed

Firefox will not save my tabs or prompt asking if I want to save tabs. When it reopens it doesn't even bring up my home pages which have been properly saved. I have tried all the suggested fixes - the problem persists even in safe mode.

Firefox does not prompt to save my tabs nor does it bring them back when it reopens. It does not even bring up my home page. I have tried the suggested fixes in the help section. This still happens in safe mode so I tried disabling plugins etc. - no change.

this should solve some of your problem if it is because you got the '''newer''' version!!

Firefox shows windows from last time, how to clear last open tab?

I have Firefox set to restore my previous session when starting.
The last tab open doesn't have an 'x' to close it. When pressing ctrl+w it will close the window in such a way that next time I open firefox it'll restore the previous tab.
Is there a way to make it close the last tab then exit when ctrl+w is pressed? This so that I can have a fresh session by clearing the last one on exit.

Try doing this:
# Goto Tools>>Options and open the General Tab.
# Look beneath the Startup Section and check the "When Firefox Starts:" Field. If it is "Show My Windows and Tabs from Last Time", change it to "Show my Homepage" to display your home page or "Show a Blank Page" to display a blank page.
That should sort out your problem. If it doesn't let us know and we'll see what else can be done.
Cheers!

When my Firefox language settings are fr_fr or fr_ca Firefox does not display the e with acute accent character correctly when it is displayed in a javascript alert box. However, it does display it correctly when my language settings are just fr. Please t

Firefox does not display the e with acute accent character correctly from a javascript alert box when my browser language settings are fr_ca or fr_fr. However, it does it correctly when my browser language setting is fr. How do i get it to display e with acute accent and other iso8859 characters correctly in a javascript alert box when my browser language settings are fr_fr and fr_ca?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

Use Unicode (UTF-8) for those characters.
Then you will always be sure that they are displayed correctly.
