Firefox requires sign in to My Yahoo homepage every time I open Firefox.

I have My Yahoo set as my homepage. I have the box checked on my Yahoo account to stay signed in for two weeks. I just started to use Firefox as my primary browser. Unlike IE 8, Firefox requires me to sign in to my personal My Yahoo page with my user name and password each time I open Firefox. Is there a way to avoid having to sign in to My Yahoo each time I open Firefox?

I have the same issue. I see that this issue was posted 7 months ago and as far as I can see here there's no resolution yet! What's the point for this forum. I'm getting pretty frustrated with firefox browser and setting it up without annoyances. If there's a resolution for this issue why not list it here. Firefox is no gem and definitely not as functional as IE.

Why does firefox change my homepage every time I open it?

I want hotsheet.com to be my permanent default every time I open firefox.

Hello howsue, in your system details it seems that you have in your [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox#Windows profile folder] a [http://kb.mozillazine.org/User.js_file User.js] file. The user.js file does not exist by default. If you create the file, forget it, if you have not create the file then try to delete the User.js file, to see if the problem goes away (some programs create the file also).
thank you

Mail application with new maverick operating system requires me to log into i cloud every time I open the mail application. Why is this?

I downloaded the new maverick operating system to my mac book pro, and after the download, the mail appliation keeps poping up a log in box from i cloud asking my password. Why?

If the email addresses are not aliases and you have seperate sign in Apple IDs, the first sign into iCloud with your main address.
For the second, open Mail, Contacts, & Calendars icon in system preferences. Click to add account and choose iCloud in the list. Provide your ID and password and the account should be created. You will not be able to sync AB, Calendars, etc though. You will only have those features with the first main account you set up first.

Why does itunes require me to agree to the terms every time I open it

Since the last update, every time I open iTunes on my computer, I have to agree to the terms, and then also decide whether or not to share my album info. How do I get this to stop?

Update: I'm having the same problem using McAfee Security. I found another discussion related to this problem, and it appears that McAfee Security program may be the root cause of the problem. See the discussion "Why does iTunes delete my itunesprefs.xml."

Do you have the FastStart extension?

SSame here. I get the popup even when a call comes in I have to clear the popup before I can answer.. Yahoo email is coming in just fine, so I don't even need to update password.

How do I stop Firefox automatically opening and forcing me onto a second tab with a Google sign-in every time I open Firefox?

Every time I open Firefox to search for something - it automatically opens a second tab and forces me to that tab. On the second tab is the Google account login. I now avoid using Firefox if I can because I cannot shut this off.

Does this also happen in Safe Mode? You can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
* Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.
Also, on the General tab in Firefox preferences, what are "When Firefox starts" and "Home Page" set to?

How do I fix this problem ...javascript (cid) applications.

How do I stop firefox from remenbering my last session every time I open up the browser?

Something happen to my computer yesterday because lots of my program shut down but I was able to open up again and now I discovered today that every time I open firefox it remember my last session even though I didn't ask it to - my homepage is set to my homepage under options and I do remember history and I know if I turn that off it won't do this but it shouldn't be doing this in the first place.

You can check if you have a user.js file in the Firefox profile folder that sets the browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once pref to true.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once

You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:

How do i make a tab active and make it stay that way always. If i put a website in my home page in order for the tabs to open automatically in that same homepage , this setting is not working, every time I open a tab , a white window appears .

How do i make a tab active and make it stay that way always. If i put a website in my home page in order for the tabs to open automatically in that same homepage , this setting is not working, every time I open a tab , the window appears white .

By default Firefox opens a blank page for a new Tab, there is no setting to change that action without installing an add-on.
New Tab Homepage extension: 
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/777

Every time I open Firefox or a new Firefox window, my home page opens but so does a second tab showing the LinkedIn login page. Don't know how this started happening or how to stop it.

Figured it out. There was code in the Preferences/home page field telling it to open my home page and that page at the same time in two tabs. Don't know how it happened, but is fixed now.

Yeah, I don't know why I can't find my posted problem of November 18, but it was similar, and I also figured out how to fix it. IF when you open Firefox to your homepage and MORE opens than IS your homepage, then go to tools, options, and check your homepage info. You will find the URLs to your homepage plus whatever windows are opening that you do NOT want. Delete everything but the homepage and close. I had at least 10 windows opening from a browsing session over a week ago every time I opened Firefox... aggravating!

When I open mozilla the rectangle saying "move firefox to applications" and the mozilla disc logo appear. How do I stop these appearing every time I open firefo

I just updated mozilla. It's working fine but now every time I open mozilla the recatbgle saying "move firefox to Applications" as well as the mozilla disc sign appear on my desktop. The rectangle disappears when I quit FF and the disc logo can be dragged to trash but how do I stop these appearing each time I open mozilla?

hello, please make sure that firefox is properly installed: [[Install Firefox on Mac]]

Firefox requires sign in to My Yahoo homepage every time I open Firefox.
