Firefox won't save my homepage no matter what I try. Help!

I have done everything it says in the troubleshooting helps, but nothing works. Everytime I save my homepage, close Firefox and reopen it, my homepage is reset to searchqu.com/406.

Hi zeemaster,
You could try using the restore to default option in the ''Tools > Options > General'' setting for your homepage. It should clear out any strangeness. Then you can set your homepage to whatever you like. If that doesn't work, you could take a look at [[Preferences are not saved]].
I don't know for sure, but it sounds like you might have been hit with some malware. [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Is%20my%20Firefox%20problem%20a%20result%20of%20malware?s=malware&r=0&as=s#w_how-do-i-get-rid-of-malware This article] will show you how to address it.
Hopefully this helps!

    my iphone will not connect to wifi no matter what HELP

    Have you tryed to restore the iPhone too ?
    Restore the phone in iTunes using a backup, and if needed as a new iPhone, without using a backup.  However, the greyed out WiFi is often due to a hardware failure requiring replacement of the phone.

  • Windows 7 Won't Boot. Frozen no matter what i try.

    Hello! My Laptop Is A Toshiba L755D-S5204.
    & I'v had problems with it sense i got it 2 yr's ago "Brand new" & contacted before but i recieved no help for the issues i was having. but i'v had to tolerate it the way it was sense i'v been in & out of hospitals. & today it's taken all day to get nowhere.
    But today i had a bigger issue, I can't get past the windows screen & a blue screen flashes than it brings me back to the Start Windows Normally Or Start Windows Fix Launch Startup Repair. & When i go into Repair it just shows a mouse & doesn't load anything but a black screen.
    When i go to boot into Safe Mode it does the same thing. & I Never even got a Recovery disk for this laptop & it's always had issue's such as the DVD Drive has never worked. So now all i can use is a 8GB USB Stick to try & save this Laptop. Is there any Toshiba Software i can load onto a USB Stick to get WIndows to boot?
    Help will be appreciated! I Want to fix this for good & can use any advice towards this model Laptop.
    Also could use a bit of help Removing the DVD Drive. I Got a new one but never installed it & not exactly sure if it fit's but it look's like it does & maybe my only hope here. & If i reformat it i don't want to loose some stock Toshiba Software like the mouse functions & FN Key features.

    It came with the recovery information on the laptop itself. If you didn't make the backup recovery media yourself, you might still be able to use the recovery utility. Work through the suggestions in this article:

  • Firefox Plugin container has stopped working (no matter what I try)

    Windows 7 64 bit
    Firefox 32.0
    Dell Inspiron 5423 14z
    I cannot get Firefox to stop crashing. I really don't want to switch to Chrome but it seems stable.
    Things I've tried:
    1. Uninstalling Firefox, erasing all App data. Downloading a fresh copy and installing it again.
    2. Updating Adobe Flash.
    3. Restarting Firefox with Add-ons disabled. (It still crashes)
    Firefox still crashes.
    Can anyone help me troubleshoot this? Thanks!

  • Time capsule won't extend my network, no matter what I try

    I have tried everything I can think of, but I just can't seem to get my TC to extend my existing wireless network. I have read the Time capsule "manual" but it's no help, and I have tried a few possible solutions available through Google - but to no avail. Is there anyway possible to get it to do this?

    No "official" list that I'm aware of, but the following are the only ones I'm aware of that are potentially compatible:
    o Linksys WRT54G or WRT54GS (not v5)
    o Belkin F5D7230-4 and F5D7231
    o BT Voyager 2091
    o Netgear WGR614 v6
    o Buffalo WGR-G54
    As you can see the TRENDnet is not amongst those so I would seriously doubt that you will have any success in doing so. Sorry!

  • Why won't my ipod sync no matter what I try in support?

    I've followed all error support for error 13019 on my 6gen nano and tried resetting, restarting, completely clearing my iPod and reinstalling and absolutely nothing works. Are there any other radical ways that may be able to fix this?

    Did this work before with this iPod and that computer, and is not working now for some reason?  Or is this the first time you are trying to use this iPod with that computer?
    Is the latest version of iTunes installed, downloaded from here?
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/
    If you are using a USB hub, try a direct connection to USB port on computer.  Also, you can try shutting down (powering off) your computer and disconnecting all USB devices.  Then, connect only standard USB keyboard and mouse (if used), and start up computer.  Run iTunes and connect the iPod. 
    completely clearing my iPod and reinstalling and absolutely nothing works.
    If that means you did a Restore in iTunes, does that mean the iPod does connect properly and get recognized by iTunes?  And you can complete a Restore successfully using iTunes, with no errors?  The error comes up only when you try to sync (load media) onto the iPod?
    If so, go to the iPod's Summary tab in iTunes.  There is a checkbox there that says Enable disk use.  Check it (if currently not checked) and Apply the change.  See if that makes any difference with the syncing problem.
    NOTE:  If Enable disk use is already checked, try unchecking it and see if that makes any difference.

  • Updated Firefox won't save my preferences; reverts to original settings.

    A few days ago, Firefox updated itself to the 18.0.1 version. Now, each time Firefox updates itself, I tend to lose some of my preferences, those being: opening new tabs as a blank page, tabs being on the bottom, and showing my windows and tabs from last time. Usually, though, once I go and change these things back to the way I like them, they stay like that and I have no further problems.
    However, this time Firefox won't save my preferences. The tabs go back to being on top, the tabs I last closed aren't there, and these tool bars I don't want keep appearing. Instead, three tabs are always there upon opening Firefox: Welcome to Firefox, Mozilla Firefox Start Page, and Yahoo! Toolbar. Also, when opening a new tab, the page says, "page does not exist" or something, and the URL is not even comprehensible, just random letters like someone bashed their head into the keyboard, something like: "jkfui87$^&%$$09."
    I've tried resetting Firefox like it says in the "How to fix preferences that won't save" page, but it didn't help. As for deleting certain files from the profile folder, before I resetted Firefox, I only had "user" and "prefs" and "Invalidprefs" which weren't exactly what that self-helping page asked for so I didn't delete them. After I resetted Firefox I lost the "user" file, but I still have the other two. Should I try deleting them even if they're not exactly like the page describes? They are missing the ".js" part so I haven't felt comfortable messing with them.
    Please give me some advice. I'm tired of having to go change my settings in "about:config" each time I open Firefox. But I really don't want to try anything that would delete my bookmarks or history, as I'm very dependent of them.

    Obviously no one here actually READS these things, I tried all of that even did a clean install, even uninstalled all user data and THE PROBLEM IS STILL THERE!
    Your help is completely useless, All you people do is copy and paste the same thing over and over. If it didn't work the first 20 times it's still not going to work no matter how many times you copy and paste the same fucking link.
    You have lost a die hard fan of Firefox, I am switching to another browser.
    Unfortunately I tried older versions of Firefox and had to go all the way back to Firefox 4 and now the problem is fixed.

  • Firefox won't save images or web pages, even after upgrading, reinstalling and resetting... How do I fix this?

    A couple upgrades ago, I noticed that Firefox wouldn't boot properly. According to "Task Mgr.", it would load partially with a "*32" after it's name in the listing, but not enough to display a window on screen. After ending the process, and restarting the program again it would usually boot fully. (not always, but usually) The "*32" confuses me as I run a 64bit Windows 7 system and during installation I was sure that I saw mention of a 64bit program being installed. Apparently, after the last upgrade, that issue was resolved; but Task Mgr. still lists the program with a "*32" after it.
    The issue now at hand is that Firefox won't save images online or save web pages. I'll right-click and select "save image as" or "save page as" and... nothing. No box appears prompting me to name a file or designate a location to save that file to. Nor does anything happen when I use the "File" menu for the same function either. This is, to say the least, is very frustrating. There may be other things not functioning that I'm not currently aware of, but I haven't been able to or had time to do a complete check of the functionality of the program. I've never had issues of any significance with Firefox in the past. It's always been very reliable for me, so I'm hoping there's a relatively quick fix that I simply haven't been made aware of yet...
    Thank you for your suggestions and time looking into this matter...
    Curtis Laipple

    It probably will take a little time to work through this troubleshooting article, but hopefully you will get a complete solution: [[What to do if you can't download or save files]].
    Regarding the *32, I see the same thing on Win 7 Pro x64. No worries. Firefox for Windows is compiled only as a 32-bit application.

    * 2) Privacy settings<br>(Type '''about:preferences#privacy'''<enter> in the address bar.)

  • My ipod 5 won't turn on at all no matter what i try

    my ipod 5 won't turn on at all no matter what i try.
    even though I try to charge it it wont charge and it wont turn on.

    Try:                           
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • 30GB won't work...no matter what :-(

    My 30GB black iPod hasn't worked in days, it won't respond. I thought the battery was fully drained so I left it plugged into the computer all night and I wake up to see it still doesn't work. The computer didn't even recognize it, no removable hardware device icon was showing. Just to be on the safe side, I tried the thing two days later (so the battery fully discharges) on my laptop and still no response what so ever. The thing isn't on hold, and I've ran through the most the common 5Rs of solving iPod issues. The unit is less than 5 months old and has never been dropped, gotten wet, or anything else that would remotely cause harm to it. Any suggestions here?

    (Re: Mic won't work no matter what I try!? I figured out the Source - mic thing after your previous message just by playing around a bit. I came to the conclusion that it was the same as accessing in the Windows mixer Playback panel though, so I knew that couldn't be the problem.
    On a daily basis, I listen to DSS or WAV files through the A2ZS.
    I don't know how to find out the impedance of my mic.
    I don't know how to tell if there is an integrated (onboard) soundcard that is still enabled. Here's what shows up in my Sounds & Audio Device Properties: Unimodem Half-Duplex Audio Device, Creative SB Audigy, Creative Game Port, Audio Codecs, Legacy Audio Drivers, Media Control Devices, Legacy Video Capture Devices, Video Codecs.
    Interesting to note that about 2 weeks ago, I used my Camtasia Studio software to make a video and I was able to record my voice through the microphone without a hitch. I've been racking my brain and can't think of anything that changed between now and then.
