Firefox won't let me enable the setting to re-open my last session from ethere hostory or the main settings how can i fix??

i got to the menu-settings-geniral-i only have use home page or a blank page it will not allow me to select in-order to re-store my last session and same in the history menu it wont allow me to click on it!

This is not a reply. I just want to elaborate on this problem.
My computer freezes occasionally when it is used after being sleep for a while. The spinning ball appears and everything is totally disabled. Nothing on the keyboard works.
The mouse moves, but does not work.
The only solution is to turn the power off and on (losing all data in open applications.)
I kept the System monitor running on the side to find out which program was running when the computer froze. The Monitor as well as all other applications froze, but the data showed:
Firefox 18.4%
Activity Monitor 0.9%
Firefox Plugin 0.2%
This is all the information I have. By the way, I am using iMac with OS 10.6.

  • The new version of Firefox won't let me access the internet. How do I fix that? I hate Internet Explorer!

    On Saturday, 5/10/14, I was using Firefox at work with zero issues. I attended to work briefly, and when I looked back I saw the status bar saying my "add-ons" were being checked. Ever since then, Firefox WILL NOT connect to the internet, and I am forced to use Internet Explorer, and THAT jams more than I am willing to tolerate. I have no idea what actually was done, from a technical perspective. I tried system restore, and even found the link with the older versions of Firefox on it, but its all code, and way above what I know how to do with computers.

    hello, normally such issues are caused by a firewall/security software which doesn't recognize & therefore blocks new firefox versions: [[Fix problems connecting to websites after updating Firefox]]

  • After migrating an account to my MacBook Air, it still has its old settings and won't let me find the Applications folder - how do I fix this?

    So I just migrated (using the Assistant) my Admin account from my old Powerbook G4 to my MacBook Air (used) , but now it's disregarding its new Trackpad settings (such as scrolling and double finger tapping, etc.) It also won't let me find my Applications folder (I used Finder), whereas the Admin account can, but see back on my old laptop I this account was an Admin. I feel like there's something written that's telling it to behave like it did on the Powerbook. I don't know - me no professional, yo, that's why I'm here. NOTE: Before I migrated, I'd started using the Admin account on here; for example, I signed in with my appleid since I figured the accounts could be merged - guess not. A family member's been helping me, but I wanted feedback from the forum.
    Thanks, guys!

    What exactly is the error you get?
    How are you attempting this copy?
    There's almost certainly a way to accomplish what you want to do (probably best from the terminal possibly copying the entire user dir and fixing up permissions, etc.) but I'm not sure you will end up with the results you want.  There are plists in the preferences dir that you probably don't want to copy over (e.g., many of the com.apple.* prefererences).  And many apps also create more than just plists.  There may be stuff in Application Support, LaunchAgents, Internet Plug-Ins, etc.).  And this would be stuff you do want to copy.  Bottom line is it is not a trivial exercise which is probably why the system is slapping your hands for even attempting it

  • IMovie isn't autosaving my events/movies and won't let me export the file. How can I ensure my projects aren't deleted if I can't manually save?

    I created a movie w/ no theme and added my raw footage to it. I edited and was ready to export but wouldn't let me share the file. When I tried to export to a file, in the "Theater" view the progress bar stayed empty and there were no files created in the target folder.
    I closed iMovie (since it should auto-save my work) to try again and when I re-opened iMovie (took a couple tries, as it froze the first time I opened it) there was no movie. No trace of any of the work I had done, other than the raw imported footage.
    Two questions:
    1) Why isn't iMovie autosaving the movie?
    2) Why wasn't I able to export it?

  • Tooltip is causing popups to go behind the main screen, how can I fix this?

    Hello,
    I'm facing a tooltip issue at work which I can't seem to reproduce in my stand-alone codes. Basically, I have a panel that contains a table with headlines. When I move the mouse through the headlines, if any popup or window is open on the main application, the tooltip causes it to go behind the app. The tooltip is implemented using the setToolTipText(String str) method in a JTable's renderer, which eventually extends DefaultTableCellRenderer; when I comment out this line, the problem seems to go away, and when I put it back I see the problem happening again. Here's what I've tried so far:
    1) Removed setToolTipText() line in the renderer code, and replaced it with getToolTipText(MouseEvent e) in the table class, itself.
    2) Removed setToolTipText() line and tried using a JWindow instead in the renderer, where I set the JWindow text to the renderer's value.
    I know that it's the tooltip that causes the problem, and the two alternatives produce the same problem, and I don't know what else I should try.
    Does anyone have any suggestions? I've been stuck with this assignment for over a week now and the deadline has passed. If anyone has any suggestions or ideas to offer, I'd very much appreciate it.
    Thanks in advance!

    I have absolutely no idea why you listen to patumaire. He has no ideas what the answers are and just trolls the forums trying to start troll wars.
    On the other hand you are incredibly selfish. We don't always no the answer, but will spend time investigating a solution be we are curious. You have no idea how frustrating it is spending time to answer questions only to find out it has already been answer in this forum or another.
    I considered posting my question on other forums this time as well; and you just made me even more positive to continue doing so from now onThanks for the heads up. I've helped you in the past but will no longer. Hopefully your buddy patumaire can solve all your questions in the future.
    In a clearer way, if you don't know the answer to my question, I'd rather not see you post, please.If you didn't cross post then you wouldn't have seen us in this posting. If normally accepted forum principles are followed then we would have no reason to comment, other than to answser a question. Since apparently you don't know these principles, you've been asked to change your behaviour.

  • Firefox won't let me change proxy setting

    the setting for acsessing the internet have changed from no proxy to manual proxy confuration, firefox won't let me change the setting. I've gone to firewall and changed the permissions but it didn't fix problem. I can acsess internet through internet explorer. What do I do??

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • I want to update my phone, but i purchased many apps and music on the phone. it won't let me authorize my computer so i cannot update. i don't want to deauthorize all my computers. how can i find out which 5 computers i have authorized?

    i want to update my phone, but i purchased many apps and music on the phone. it won't let me authorize my computer so i cannot update. i don't want to deauthorize all my computers. how can i find out which 5 computers i have authorized? also how can i update the software?

    This is a tedious solution, which is stupid!  And some users report an inability to reauthorize a computer after an "en masse” deauthorization.  I can’t believe Apple doesn’t provide a list or menu to find out which computers you’ve authorized! Obviously, APPLE knows (or else they couldn’t tell us how many computers we have authorized)--so why can’t they give us access to that information about our own computers??!!!
    And for an already-authorized computer with a hard drive that’s since been replaced and upgraded from Mavericks to Yosemite, would it be recognized as a “new computer” and require authorization? Would its previous incarnation (i.e., with the old hard drive and OS) be considered a separate computer? Some users report they can’t authorize a computer after an OS upgrade because of that. Can’t believe we have to do such a bass-ackwards kludge!

    ''downloads won't open from the Download List:''
    The Downloads Manager ("Ctrl+J") is more like a log of downloads, it does not verify that the download still exits. Make sure you are setup to download to a permanent location, not into temporary files that get cleaned by the browser or by CCCleaner or something designed to clear out temporary files.

    Don't clear your download history automatically, but having a lot there whether they exist or not, can slow down Firefox at least it was an issue:

    Have you tried to reboot your router? Unplug it, count to 30, plug it back in and let it reboot. Also you may want to go into your settings on your iPad and 'reset network settings'.
    In case the update messed something up, letting the devices reboot sometimes helps.

    My iPod is dead and won't charge or connect to the computer. How can I fix this? Before it died, it said I had a full battery whenever I charged it, but as soon as it came off of the charger, the battery level was always under ten per cent.

    Sounds like the battery needs to be replaced.
