Firefox is my default launch. Now upon every new launch, sites stored in toolbar automatically appear in history toolbar. Did not change anything.

The history shows sites I bookmarked. Not all but many that I have not seen or opened in months or years.

  • I know that I did not change anything in my Toshiba laptop, before Thankgiving I couldn't get my Firefox to come up, now I have to give my putter permission to

    My user control asks if I want to allow Firefox. I went into my user control and it hadn't changed. Never had this problem before and I have been using Firefox for a long time. How do I fix this???

    One reason I suggested the [[Troubleshoot and diagnose Firefox problems]] article is because it includes things like [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems|troubleshooting extensions]]. This is from [/questions/696275#answer-149331] ''Firefox will not open without User Account Control asking if I will allow it to make changes on my computer.''<br>'''Quote:'''
    ''Depends on the configuration of your machine's other settings. In my case, and with a Dell Vostro laptop, all I had to do was disable the "Digital Persona Extension" in Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions section. There was no need to adjust anything else with UAC or the firefox.exe or its shortcut properties. :) ''
    It might also help if you could give the '''exact text of the message''' that you are seeing each time you start Firefox and include a screenshot, if possible. See [[How do I create a screenshot of my problem?]]

  • My iCloud Account did not change to my new Apple ID. What do I do now?

    My iCloud account did not change from my old Apple ID to the new Apple ID, that I recently set up. What do I do now?

    Roger provided you with the steps to get your new ID signed onto iCloud on your Mac. If you have any devices that still have that old iCloud ID still signed on, you will have to do the following for those:
    1.     Go to Manage your Apple ID and sign in with your current ID and password, then change your Apple ID back to the old ID (the one that is still showing on iCloud). This is temporary so, do NOT verify the ID, do NOT change the password: Apple - My Apple ID
    2.     Go to Settings>iCloud and sroll down to the bottom of the page and click on Delete Account. Use your current Apple ID passoword when asked. Follow the prompts to complete the deletion of the iCloud account
    3.     Go back to Manage your Apple ID and change your ID back to your new ID (you may have to verify it again)
    4.     Go back to Settings>iCloud and sign on with your new Apple ID. Everything will be pushed back to your device from your iCloud account - it make take a few minutes

  • Adobe Acrobat XI Pro - Toolbar Did Not Install in Firefox

    Hi,
    The toolbar did not install in Firefox.  I'm using Firefox 31.0 on a Windows 7 Computer.  I want to be able to convert webpages to pdf files and print the webpages out.

    Go to your Extensions in Firefox to see if it is ENABLED or DISABLED.  My money is on DISABLED.

  • Firefox Asks for Unnecessary Master Password Upon Every Startup

    Upon start up, Firefox unnecessarily asks for my master password every time. My home page (Google Finance) does not require a password. This occurs in safe mode as well. This is annoying and time wasting. I have to X-out the master password request window about 10 seconds after I start Firefox. Why does it do this? ... Firefox did not used to do this.

    The cited solutions involve either removing the Master Password, or using an add-on which requires an initial password. Neither is a true solution to the problem. If I remove the use of a Master Password and my machine were stolen, then the passwords would be accessible to a thief. So, I do want a Master Password. The question ... and problem ... is this: why does Firefox request a password upon startup when it does not yet need one? And, how can this be turned off? From my memory, it did not used to do that.

  • Firefox opens a new window every time I click a link. I reset FF and it did not fix the problem.

    When I click on any link, the browser opens a new window. I have searched the browser options to fix this and have not found a place to select a different option. I have reset Firefox and checked all of my plugins and have not found anything that seem to be related to my problem. Sometimes, Firefox will work normally for the first few minutes of use and then start opening a window for everything.
    By normally, I mean that I click a link and it opens the link in the same tab that I'm browsing. Some links will open in a new tab, depending on the type of link. Mostly, they open in new windows no matter what.

    Boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.

  • Project Server default groups when we create new project site

    Hi,
    When we create new project site in project server 2013 in site settings page some default groups are already present with some default permissions and some default members.
    Interesting thing is that the members of these group are same when ever we create a new site.
    Can you please help me understand, what these groups are, how they get created and how they are having some default members. Where are these members coming from.
    Our project server is having project server permission mode.
    Thanks,
    Bhawna.

    I briefly searched the MSTechNet but was not able to find a succinct article on this point for 2013, if someone has that, can they pls share. However, if you read most of the articles under this area,
    you get the idea.
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/fp161361(v=office.15).aspx
    From 2010 this applies and is still "similar"
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc197668(v=office.14).aspx
    In 2013, for every Project Site (connected SharePoint site as it is now called in 2013), 2 Site specific SharePoint security groups are created: "SiteProjectName Project Managers (Project Web App Synchronized)"
    & "SiteProjectName Team Members (Project Web App Synchronized)". 
    And Web Administrators (Project Web App Synchronized) is also created.
    In addition, the default SharePoint groups for: Site Members, Site Owners, Site Visitors are present but remain empty.
    Project Server controls the creation of these groups and the membership. The membership is a "formula" that goes something like this: If the user is the Project Owner then put them in the PM group.
    If the user is a PWA Administrator, then put them in the Administrators group. If the user is a team member on the project, then put them in the Team Members group. There are other factors like RBS that are used in the formula.
    Reading the descriptions of the groups reveals that for Project Managers =
    Users who have Published this project or who have Save Project Permission in PWA. 
    For Team Members = Users who have assignments in this project in PWA. 
    I believe these are the old 2010 descriptions and actually Team Members = anyone who is part of the Build Team even if no assignments.
    Further complicating matters is that if you are a site collection admin, you will see all the groups, for PWA and for all the project site (b/c you are actually seeing the site collection groups). 
    But only the ones mentioned above apply specifically to this project site.
    Hope this sheds some light on the topic,
    Thanks, Eric S. Pcubed

  • Firefox will not open links in gmail, but Internet Explorer will. Firefox is the default browser. The tab of the site it is trying to open reads: https:/w8mbn4 or https:/...urw8nbn4. No errors in the Error counsel are reported. Help!

    I put in the WOT Addon, but Uninstalled it with not improvement.

    I have exactly the same issue. After FF upgraded on its own to version 5, it won't open from start menu, taskbar, desktop icon, or even by pressing firefox.exe in program files directory. It does so by pressing a link at msn messenger, inside Outlook etc.
    Disabling all addons, didn't help. Moreover, I can't start FF in safe mode or start profile manager (Start > Run> firefox.exe -ProfileManager).

  • Phone crashes upon every new update of iOS

    Is anyone else having this problem? Every time I go to update my iOS on my iPhone 4, it crashes. It'll download the new iOS, but when it goes to install it on my phone, it really lags, then just all together crashes. I end up having to do a restore, which takes forever, THEN install the new iOS. And in the course of all this, I lose all my pictures and videos on my phone. It's really annoying, and I dread each upcoming update, because it ends up taking me almost 3 hours every time. My phone is nearly brand new...only had it a month or so. This shouldn't be happening, because I never have this issue when I update my iPod or my iPad. Is there something I can do to prevent it?

    I've had no such problem or any problem installing the updates released for iOS4 since the iPhone 4 and iOS4 was released or after the install.
    All photos and videos in your iPhone's Camera Roll should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera. The Camera Roll is for temporary storage until the photos and/or videos can be imported by your computer. I usually delete the photos and videos in the Camera Roll after the import process is complete as I do with any other digital camera. This will also reduce the time it takes to update your iPhone's backup, which is updated as the first step during the iTunes sync process. If you want any of the imported photos and videos available on your iPhone for viewing, they can be transferred to your iPhone as part of the iTunes sync/transfer process.

  • When I try to send a link to someone from Firefox it's defaulting to Outlook Express instead of Windows Live Mail which is what I use. How do I change that?
