Firefox is not restoring my previous sessions anymore. how do i fix this?

i have my settings set so that the previous sessions should be shown to me when i reopen firefox. this worked fine for awhile but then it just stopped. i would like this fixed please.

Make sure that you close Firefox with all windows still open and not have the menu bar visible with all windows closed.
Did you check for History > Recently Closed Tabs/Windows?
Make sure that you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode (Never remember history).
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Private+Browsing
*Firefox > Preferences > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history"
*Deselect: [ ] "Always use Private Browsing mode"
In case you use "Clear history when Firefox closes":
*do not clear the Browsing History
*Firefox > Preferences > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history": [X] "Clear history when Firefox closes" > Settings

Firefox is not compatable with my thermal printer, how do I fix this?

When I print my UPS labels using Firefox, it always prints 2 labels. I called UPS to fix this problem and they said it is a problem with my browser, not the printer. I was wondering if something could be done to fix this-because I really hate wasting so many labels.

Sorry, I don't have access to a UPS thermal printer to be able to test that situation myself, but I am curious which preferences are set in Firefox for that printer.
There are two places where you can get that information, the first is Help > Troubleshooting Information - Copy All to Clipboard, then paste to a text program ''(not an option in 3.5.x versions and earlier versions, was new for Firefox 3.6)''. The other is through '''about:config''' and use '''''printer''''' as the Filter at the top.
I would suspect the printer plugin is sending the second command to Firefox, resulting in a 2nd label being printed - especially with that 5-10 second delay being there. My "gut feeling" that Firefox would spit the second page out a lot faster, if Firefox was causing that to happen.
Have you tried opening any of the files for that plugin to see if there are any plain Engilsh prefs that can be changed, or are those files all "machine language" like DLL's appear to be when opened in a text program?
IIRC, the UPS supplied terminal which contained a label printer that we had in the retail chain I worked for in 2000-2004 always printed two labels and we either tossed the 2nd label out or put it one another of the 6 sides of the box.

Firefox does not restore the previous session & the restore option in history is not given. this never happened until firefox 6, now 7. am I the only one having this problem, to restore the last session incl. the different group is very inconvenient..

I restart pc / firefox about once a day & this only happened recently. I hope you can fix this.

If this were just a Netflix problem, why can I access Netflix through Internet Explorer and not through Firefox? I've been using Firefox to access Netflix for at least the past year and starting yesterday (12/6/11) Firefox doesn't seem to recognize that Netflix exists. I've tried the suggested Firefox "help" which was of no help whatsoever and may even have made life more difficult in accessing other accounts. Anyone know how to contact Netflix or Firefox by phone?

I have "show a blank page" selected but since I've downloaded the latest version it always restarts with whatever pages and tabs I had open in the previous session. How do I fix this?

I have just reloaded and no difference

If you do not use "Show my windows and tabs from last time" then make sure that Firefox closes properly to prevent session restore from reopening a possibly crashed session.

Firefox will not open my previous session

Firefox 4 will not open any previous session once I shut down. I can have say 5 tabs open, close firefox, and reopen it and the session was saved. If I have those same 5 tabs open and shut down, then turn on my computer the next day, I can click on firefox, it will highlight the icon, and the highlight will disappear after about 5 seconds, and then I have to click it again, and it will open a totally new session. How do I fix this?

Make sure that you do not use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the "Browsing History" if Firefox is closed.

When I updated to OS 5.0 my old apple id which was not an e-mail address won't work anymore, how can I fix this?

There is no way to consolidate iTunes accounts.
Setting up an iPhone has never required creation of a new Apple ID.
You've apparently purchased content with both Apple ID's. Sign into the device with the correct Apple ID and sync the content.

I had a previous problem with this with my old iphone 4 and did not realize there was an issue until it was stolen. I would like to get this straightened out just in case anything ever happens with this phone.
Thank you in advance for any help.

To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
If you purchased it on the App Store you can find it in your Purchases List.

It takes two to tango, maybe it's your recipient that has weak Internet/Cellular connections.

Try updating your QuickTime to the most recent version. Does that clear up the DEP errors in iTunes?
