Firefox opening in Fullscreen - How to stop this ?

Firefox on start up has just started to continuously open in full screen . I can tap the "full screen " icon on the navigation bar and then the page goes to a quarter of the desktop where I then maximise it and I'm back where I wanted to be.
How to I get it to load normally on start up ?

Hi Barty1958,
You can hit F11 to bring Firefox out of Fullscreen mode. If you close Firefox while NOT in fullscreen mode by going to ''File > Exit'' it should remember this for the next time it starts. You might also want to check the shortcut that launches Firefox to be sure it doesn't have an extra parameter to always start in fullscreen.
There is also a lot of information in this thread:

There are several other things listed in that thread that might help!

  • My Mail app opens unprompted everytime i reboot or awake my macbook pro from sleep.  This was not an issue until i shut down my laptop for the first time in a while 2 days ago.  ANy ideas how to stop this?

    I recently shut down my MacBook Pro for the first time in a long time.  SInce then, everytime i reboot or awake my laptop from sleep, the Mail app opens unprompted causing my computer to slow down incredibly, and some apps to freeze.  I have no idea how to stop this or why it even started doing this.  Any ideas on how to get it to stop? Thanks!

    I have this problem too with my Macbook Air. Mail opens automatically every time my laptop sleeps. I actually just asked about this in my own thread. However, it is not causing my apps to freeze.

    Hello, iam using the latest version of firefox, whenever i login into my yahoo mail account i get a stop script error, the details of the error script is mentioned below , please suggest how to stop this
    the website is www.mail.yahoo.com. i was getting the same STOP script error every now and then in firefox 6 as well

    I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
    When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
    At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
    I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

    At the top of my homepage, I'm getting a message "Downloading the latest applications", but the circle to the left keeps spinning, and no applications are downloaded. I don't know how to stop this, tried right and left clicking on the bar. This occurs every time I open Firefox. How can I stop or disable this?
    == This happened ==

  • Power Point open multiple windows - how to avoid this bad behavior?

    When one presentation is opened multiple ppt is also opened. It is told to be a Yosemite issue. Does anybody know how to stop this behavour?

    Andrew, sorry, but that's not correct. That was true with the iBook, but the MacBook and MacBook Pro are designed to be able to run with the screen closed. It takes a hack (used at the owner's risk) to keep the MB or MBP from sleeping when the lid is closed, but both systems are engineered such that once the lid is closed and the system goes to sleep, it can be then awakened and run if an external monitor, keyboard and mouse are connected. This is by design and fully supported by Apple. Of course the MB/MBP needs to be in a setting where it gets full cooling; on a solid surface, nothing blanketing the top and nothing blocking the rear vents.
    Regards.

  • How to stop this multiple entry against same condition type in pricing

    My client is using manual condition type for the basic price "ZBPR". Now system allowing multiple entry against this condition type in the pricing screen during order creation i.e in the first line if we put ZBPR 00 , in the second line system allowing to put another value against same ZBPR say for example 2000 & doing all subsequent calculations on the basis of 3000 .which is not at all acceptable by my client .Please suggest how to stop this multiple entry against same condition type

    You have to make the condition type as Mandatory and not manual.
    If you are entering many condition records of the ZPR0 then the latest entry will be taken for further processing for subtotal rebate and total price.
    For all the other entered condition records will have yellow traffic signal which is not active.
    you can assign a routine with the help pf your abaper...
    In the Transaction VOFM  define a requirement such that
    you condition type takes value only one at the time of order entry.
    regards,

    This "original file cannot be found" thing happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
    Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

  • My ip5 auto restarting itself lately, how to stop this problem?

    My ip5 auto restarting itself lately, how to stop this problem?

    It cannot just change itself.  If it has not been changed by someone using the phone, then the only other thing I can think of is that the phone is on a corporate Exchange account, and the passcode has been changed by the administrator.  If that is not the answer then the phone will have to be restored.

  • Hi! I've just purchased a new iPhone 5s but whenever I text people with iPhones it's always sent from my iCloud account. This means that my email show instead of my name/number which is really frustrating! Does anyone know how to stop this?

    Hi! I've just purchased an iPhone 5S but whenever I text people with iPhones it sends from my iCloud account. This means that my email comes up for other people not my name/number which is really frustrating! Does anyone know how to stop this?

    Go into Settings>Messages>Send and Receive> Is your phone number checked there? If you do not want your email used, then tap on them and remove the checkmark. If there is no checkmark by your phone number, then turn iMessage off, perform a reset on the phone, hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot. Turn iMessage on. When it activates, check your settings again under Send and Receive and make sure the number is checked and the emails are not.

    Anytime i plug a charger into my iphone . It vibrates , How doI stop this. I've tried several ways

    No way to completely stop it.  When you plug in the power cord, it will chime, or it will vibrate (if the mute switch is on), but the device is designed to one of the other.  I suppose it is the designers way of making sure that you know your device is properly connected and has switched over to external power.  At this point in time, that feature cannot be disabled.
