Firefox pauses music/podcasts app when new tab loads.

Running Android 4.4.4 on a Moto G. Firefox is up to date (stable version from Play Store). When I have audio playing from BeyondPod (podcast client), Google Play Music, or Spotify and start Firefox to load a web page, the audio pauses and the widget in the notification tray goes away. Does not happen with Chrome or AOSP Browser.

The Freeze.com NetAssistant is responsible for this issue and you need to uninstall (or at least disable) that extension.

Keypad scrolling stops in previous tabs when new tab loads a pdf file

Firefox 4, HP laptop, W7. I have several tabs open with html pages loaded. Laptop keypad scrolling works correctly in all of them until I load a pdf file into a new tab. The keypad scrolling works correctly for the new tab containing the pdf but stops working in the previously opened tabs containing html files.
My other HP laptop also runs Firefox 4 but has Windows XP as its operating system and does NOT have ths problem. Could be a W7 problem?
Thanks, Barry

You get that problem if you select the Firefox program to handle a file if you get an "open with" dialog.

When I update some of my addons, everytime I open firefox information about update is in new tabs, even "welcome to firefox" is always there in new tab! It's very annoying!

Question
When I update some of my addons, everytime I open firefox information about update is in new tabs, even "welcome to firefox" is always there in new tab! It's very annoying!

Ok I found a solution that worked for me, I simply dragged the user.js and the user.js.BAK to the desktop, before that I had done the same with the prefs.js and prefs.js.BAK, but that didn't help, so it's apparently the user file that was an error with.
It was the link from cor-el that helped me on the way http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
It's at the bottom titled User.js file locks certain preferences.
This article can also help https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Preferences%20are%20not%20saved
It have still not made a new user.js file, but everything runs fine, hope this can help others to.

FF hangs, does not launch ,hangs when new tab opened.

FF hangs when launched and when new tab is opened , same is the case when launched in safe mode ,I have reinstalled the browser but the issue persisits.
EDIT: Found a folder on my desktop "old firefox data"

Previous versions of Firefox used to cause web pages to hang, freezing everything. Firefox 15.0.1 has gone one step further /
It hangs immediately, as soon as the welcome message ( and the picture showing a kind of crop circle) appears.
This means having to Force quit... I have done just that ( and relaunched ) three times, without success. I've also trashed FF and reinstalled it three times. No joy.
There may be a "fix" of some sort, but it shouldn't be necessary : Safari, Chrome, Opera, Camino, and SeaMonkey work fine "straight out of the box". So why not Firefox?
Besides, a "fix" would be impossible since I'd have to launch FF to apply it, and as I said, it hangs/freezes immediately.
I'm using a Mac, system 10.6.8.

New Launchpad app in new tab or window of browser

Hi ,
How can we launch a new launchpad app ( like sales order app) in new tab or window of browser.
with the new launchpad apps they are opened in same window and user want to work with multiple apps opened in different tabs.
Any idea how to achieve this ?
Regards
Yashpal Gupta

Hi Yashpal,
Please test it with custom tile and specify the Target URL instead of Semantic Object flag in the Navigation setting.
Specify the app "#" + Semantic Object + "-" action after the FioriLaunchpad.html.
https://<host>:<port>/sap/bc/ui5_ui5/ui2/ushell/shells/abap/FioriLaunchpad.html#SalesOrder-track
You will loose some navigation functions like app to app navigation with this.

Safari favorite icons blinking, blurred when new tab activated - new behavior

Safari favorite icons blinking, blurred like double vision, when new tab activated - new behavior.
Yosemite - all updates completed.
Have closed Safari and reopened x2, have restarted computer.
The favorites on tool/task bar work, just not the favorite icons on opening page of new tab

It has resolved itself!

Since upgrading my phone to 6.0.1, I'm using way too much data. I believe it's the podcast app that's not loading shows while I'm connected to wifi. I have the 3g turned off for podcasts??? also after a phone call or an alert it starts playing a podcast?

I've also had the same issues, after upgrading to IOS 6.0, the apps in my iPhone 4 were crashing and the battery life run out very fast.
The only solution worked for me was to remove all mail accounts (Exchange/Gmail) from my iPhone (in settings) and then add them back.
The crashing were stopped! also the battery was back to normal.
I found the solution by first looking at the crash logs (in IOS 6). you can find them at Settings -> General -> About (at the bottom of the About menu you will find the option that opens the logs).
There i saw many logs about Low Memory crash. 99% of the logs were pointed that the largest process (use the most memory) during the crashes is "dataaccessd".
I search in the web and found that this process is a deamon process that reponsible the Mail accounts (like Exchange/Gmail) and contancts list.
I've installed the app "System Status - activity monitor" which shows important system info like CPU usage, Memory usage and running processes.
Before apply my solution (deleting the mail accounts) i saw that the CPU usage was very high which consume the battery very fast. Also i saw that the memory (RAM) was run out.. which probably what cause the crashing..
After deleting the mail accounts (at Settings -> Mail, Contacts, Calendars) i check again with the System Status app, and saw that the memory and CPU were back to normal.
Adding the mail accounts back, still everything work ok
Hope this solution will help you too,
Enjoy!

Every time a call ends or I miss a call my podcasts start playing. I realize this is because the app is only paused and not stopped; however this is a problem I didn't have before the podcast app when it was just integrated into the music app.

It also does this after I use Siri. I have an iphone 5 and it does the same thing on my 3gs. Since I forget to stop the app frequently it becomes annoying to have podcasts starting at random when in a meeting.
Thanks for any help!

Hey Sierra, You can do just what you have stated. My question, what is your "other"? If it is over 1.5 GB you most likely have corrupt files. Doing a Restore to New, Factory restore should correct it. Just make sure you make a full backup of all information on your iPod to your computer before you restore, so you don't lose your stuff, contacts, videos, pictures, non-iTunes music, etc, use the cable and connect with your computer. Then, via cable, connect to your computer, run the Restore to new, don't use your backup. Treat this iPod as if it was your first one ever. When restore is done, set up and add what info you wish to install on this iPod. The music apps etc you purchased should be on your computer, if not you should be able to retrieve purchased apps and music from iTunes. Any music, videos, apps not purchased from iTunes will be lost to you if you do not save them to your computer or the cloud first. When your done, make a current Backup and you should good to go. Hope this helps. Good luck. Cheers.

My Firefox will no longer open a new tab when i click on it or when i use the shortcut.

I have tried looking through all the setting that it gave me and i can not find when it wont let me open a new tab. All the settings i have are the default settings and before it happened i hadn't even been into the setting so its not like i was messing with them and then it messed up it just happened one time. I do not have any viruses or anything because i use 3 different virus scans and they say my computer its clean. Also my virus scanning programs are up to date i updated them today.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Why won't Firefox open an site in a new tab when clicked on in Google?

When I was in Google and would click on a site to open, it would open in the tab I was on rather than opening in a new tab. It used to do so.
So if I go to the site and it's not the one that answers my question, rather than clicking on the back button, I have to go back and click on my Google Bookmark.
It's annoying because everytime you open Google, you get a different set of sites to access.
Today, the word I was Googling was kfeeders.

Thanks but perhaps I didn't explain the problem well.
I was on the Google page, and put in the item I was searching for, clicked search and got a page or many pages of potential sites that would fit my query. But if I clicked on one of the sites, I couldn't click back to the Google page, the back arrow was gray. It doesn't happen all the time, only occasionally. Guess it's just a problem with some sites.

Firefox start page opens up as new tab whenever my home page opens

I've changed the default home page to another website.
Whenever Firefox starts up, two tabs will open ie. my homepage and Firefox start page. While browsing on any tab, if I click ALT+HOME to go to homepage, a new tab opens again for the firefox start page.
Why is this happening? It didn't happen with older firefox browser versions.

I have the same issue and figured it out. When you (and I) set our home pages, the Firefox start page was open also. Firefox takes every tab you have open when you set your home page. So close all but 1 tab and go to your desired home page and set it through the Tools>options>General tab. That fixed it for me.

Firefox hangs on opening websites in new tab

When I open the links in the new tab, Firefox hangs.
It shows an JavaScript busy message box after several minutes but unable to click on the messagebox even.
Steps.
1. Open a website
2. Keep on opening new tabs with 4-5 tabs, Firefox will hang
I could not take take the troubleshoot information because the UI is unresponsive.
The bug and dump has been filed in Bugzilla, have a look here - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=764715
I tried deleting the default profile and created a new one. Also tried resetting Firefox and safemode option as well but the problem persists.

For me, this problem appeared immediately after I updated Java, and I failed to uncheck the "Install ask.com toolbar" option. I immediately uninstalled it, but I wonder if anyone else having the problem did the same thing.

Firefox opens my homepage AND a new tab on start-up. Help

When I open Firefox, it opens my homepage (Google) and a new tab. How do I get it to just open my home page?

It seems after disabling an add-on called"MySearchDial", which I don't remember installing, the problem disappeared. Thanks ^.^

Firefox crashes after I open a new tab

Hi,
My Firefox keeps crashing every time I open a new (blank) tab. The same happens in safe mode. Here are links to some of the latest crash reports:
https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/f0fce577-b53e-44bf-a8fa-f7a802150406
https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/176ae181-d394-4abb-a7f2-c792c2150406
https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/dc577bdc-adb4-47b9-9a0e-096442150406
What could be wrong?
Thanks.

Do you get the same error if you type or paste '''about:blank''' in your current tab and press Enter?
''If Yes:'' Firefox's program files might be corrupted.
''If No:'' Can you confirm that your new tab page is set to about:blank? Here's how:
(1) In the address bar, type or paste '''about:config''' and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''newtab''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Check the '''browser.newtab.url''' preference and, if appropriate, double-click it to enter your preferred page:
* ''Page thumbnails (default)'' => about:newtab
* ''Blank tab'' => about:blank
* ''Built-in Firefox home page'' => about:home
* ''Any other page'' => full URL to the page
''If Firefox won't let you edit this setting:'' you may have something called SearchProtect on your system. This needs to be removed from the Windows Control Panel.
Assuming the change shows up, normally you would test by pressing Ctrl+t to open a new tab... I'll cross my fingers.
To address possibly corrupted program files:
'''Clean Reinstall'''
We use this name, but it's not about removing your settings, it's about making sure the program files are clean. As described below, this process does not disturb your existing settings. Do NOT uninstall Firefox, that's not needed.
(1) Download a fresh installer for Firefox 37.0.1 from https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ to a convenient location. (Scroll down to your preferred language.)
(2) Exit out of Firefox (if applicable).
(3) Rename the program folder
''(64-bit Windows folder names)''
C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
to
C:\Program Files (x86)\OldFirefox
''(32-bit Windows folder names)''
C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
to
C:\Program Files\OldFirefox
(4) Run the installer you downloaded in #1. It should automatically connect to your existing settings.
Any difference?
Note: Some plugins may exist only in that OldFirefox folder. If something essential is missing, look in these folders:
* \OldFirefox\Plugins
* \OldFirefox\browser\plugins
