Firefox doesn't load from the quick launch

sometimes when i click the quick launch icon on my task bar Firefox does not load right. All i get is a blank white screen and it happens more than just a few times. I have to reload the page after i close it out. Also i keep getting issues when I click the quick launch icon that it says oops we need to restore your last session. And it was closed out properly. Especially first thing in the morning after I start up my computer. Is there anything that can be done with these issues.

Hello,
I am using Firefox 26.0 on Windows 7, 64-bit without any issues and want to help resolve this issue for you. To narrow down the root cause of the problem, can you please try opening Firefox in safe mode and then see if the sluggishness after repeated usage is being observed. Try opening Firefox in safe-mode each time, so that we can narrow to the root cause
<hr>
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.

''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''

'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''

  • How can I remove the Quick Launch area from a SharePoint site

    We have a SharePoint site that includes a Quick Launch area by default.  We know how to add and delete items from the Quick Launch area but how can we delete the Quick Launch space (this would shift the main body portion over to the left and taking
    over the space once occupied by the Quick Launch area)?

  • Because you this loading firefox.exe like process from the beginning of the computer with a load from 38 to 42000 kb or like I can solve this problem

    because you this loading firefox.exe like process from the beginning of the computer with a load from 38 to 42000 kb or like I can solve this problem, atualmente when lighting the computer among the processes that are loaded when beginning the computer is a process of name firefox.exe with a load of between 30 and 50000 kb but I don't find to the registered firefox inside the programs to crgar from the beginning when entering for msconfig.exe my operating system is so far windows xp up-to-date sp3 and my firefox is 7.0.1 version in Spanish that is my native language.

    That seems very suspicious. Two suggestions.
    First, try Firefox's Safe Mode. This will let you work around problems with add-ons and perhaps help you identify things to remove so that Firefox goes back to normal.
    I recommend making a backup of your Firefox settings before starting in Safe Mode. To back up Firefox, see [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information].
    Next, try starting Firefox in Firefox
    [http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode Safe Mode]. Be careful not to "reset" anything permanently if you didn't back up.
    Does that work? If so, you may need to disable your add-ons and just bring the most essential ones back to life until you discover the problem one.
    Second thought: malware. You could supplement your usual security scans with these:
    Malwarebytes Anti-malware : http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php
    SUPERAntiSpyware : http://www.superantispyware.com/

    Hope this helps.

  • Why do 3 images appear on the quick launch instead of one?

    I installed Firefox 14.0.1 and when I click the first time on the quick launch icon and Firefox loads correctly, immediately 3 layers of the icon images appear on the quick launch. and when I "RED X" out and go back in I get a half screen of my bookmarks in gray!

    YOU BETCHUM!!!!! ALL GOOD NOW!

    P.S. - I don't remember doing that - Could 14.0.1 defaulted to that scary setup?

  • Question about scrolling and Movie Clips Loaded from the Library

    I hope I am posting this in the right forum.
    Ok, I'm using actionscript 2.0, and I am trying to make a scrolling image gallery. I have a movie clip with three layers. the first contains a movie clip used as a scroll bar. The second is a mask used to hide the overflow content, and the third contains movie clip thumbnails. when I click one of the thumbnails, it loads a symbol containing a larger version of the picture over top of the thumbnails on the same layer. My problem is, the large image is added at the very top of the movie clip, even when it is scrolled out of sight. I want it to appear in sight, so the user doesn't have to scroll all the way back up to the top to see it. This is annoying and confusing. Is there a way to do this?
    Here is the code I used to create the scroll effect (there is actually a whole lot more to the code but it is very long, so I am not adding it now. I will if it is needed though) 
    (Oh, and there is no text involved in this. I just got this code off a tutorial and I haven't changed the variable names yet)
        var scrollUpper:Number = 58;
        var scrollLower:Number = 309;
        var textLower:Number = 60;
        var textUpper:Number = -179;
        var scrollRange:Number = scrollLower - scrollUpper;
        var textRange:Number = textLower - textUpper;
        var startY:Number = imagesHolder_mc.thumbs_mc._y;
        function scroll(){
           var moved:Number = imagesHolder_mc.scroller_mc._y - scrollUpper;
           var pctMoved:Number = moved/scrollRange;
           var textMove:Number = pctMoved*textRange;
           imagesHolder_mc.thumbs_mc._y = textLower - textMove;
        imagesHolder_mc.scroller_mc.onPress = function(){
           this.startDrag(false,this._x,scrollUpper,this._x,scrollLower);
           this.onMouseMove = scroll;
        imagesHolder_mc.scroller_mc.onRelease = scroller_mc.onReleaseOutside = function(){
           this.stopDrag();
           this.onMouseMove = null}

    Thanks for your reply. I'll try to explain it better. I have a long, vertically scrolling movie clip. This movie clip contains lots of thumbnails. When I click a thumbnail, the full sized image is loaded from the library and displayed within the same movie clip. when I click the full size movie clip, it disappears again, and I can click another thumbnail to display another full size image. So I'm not just adding more and more stuff to the gallery if that's what you were thinking. I'm just clicking thumbnails to display the full size image so I can look at it, closing it, and moving on.
    But the full sized image is fixed at the very top of the scrolling movie clip, so if I click a thumbnail at the very bottom, I have to scroll all the way back up to the top to see the full size image. I just want the full size image to appear on screen no matter how far down I have scrolled to click a thumbnail.
    I made my basic gallery useing this tutorial:
    http://flashexplained.com/actionscript/making-the-ultimate-dynamic-image-gallery-in-flash- 8/
    if you want to take a look at that, to get an idea of what I'm talking about.
    Now I'm just trying to add some scrolling functionality, which wasn't included, but I don't really understand actionscript well enough to do this easily on my own.
    Sorry for the long reply. I hope this is clearer.

    I'm used to the Internet Explorer option to create a shortcut to the desktop, then I drag the icon to the quick launch area. I don't see that option in FF.

    You can drag the favicon on the left end of the location bar onto the desktop to create a shortcut.
    You can also use an extension.

  • Firefox doesn't load/run/start at all.

    Firefox doesn't load/run at all. Never had any problems with Firefox before until today.
    My spyware warned me about a potential risk of a website asking for permission when browsing on Firefox...I clicked decline. Since then Firefox closed and won't start at all (a load icon begins to appear then nothing else happens. ''' Nothing'''). I don't know if it crashed or not as I didn't receive a crash report (not that I'd be able to access it anyhow I think). It just randomly shut down and since then won't start.
    I have restarted my computer, scanned my computer, turned off the firewall, reinstalled Firefox, attempted to run in safemode - none of these options correct the problem. It literally just does not start! It's not running as a hidden process/application either as I've look through my control pannel. Any help would be most appreciated.

  • Firefox will not load to the web, even after 2nd download.

    I have used firefox as a web browser because our school page works best with it. I have used firefox for over three months. This weekend firefox will not load. The screen message says unable to load web page, try again button is displayed, all to no avail.

    I have XP Pro. I tried installing 3.6.15 and could not open it. I did a system restore and 3.6.14 would no longer open. I tried again installing 3.6.15 and got a message that the previous version had not uninstalled properly. Tried uninstalling.
    As a precaution I used MozBackup to save my bookmarks etc. and also saved a system restore point.
    I then clicked Start, My Computer, drive C, Program Files and deleted the Firefox folder.
    I installed 3.6.15 and it is now working fine with all my bookmarks and addons loaded automatically.

    I was told I had to upgrade Firefox to 4.0, downloaded the dmg, launched it and now Firefox will not open at all. It tells me "The operation can't be completed because you don't have permission to access some of the items." Also, that "Firefox cannot be opened because of a problem." And it give a bunch of code. This is my main browser. What is happening here? My OS X is 10.6.7. Has this caused a problem?

    If you right-click on your Photoshope.exe, select Properties, there should be a Compatibility tab. There you can select Windows XP, Windows 2000, Winows 98 or 95. One of these should allow you to open Photoshop 6, unless you mean CS6.
