Having just installed Firefox, I have a start page but not a home page.
I've just installed Firefox. When I start it from the desktop icon, I get a start page but cannot get to then Firefox home page. I have no Firefox button at top left.
How do I get the home page?
The home button just tales me to the start page and I don't know how to get the actual home page.
On the illustrations in the info pack, an orange Firefox button is shown in the top left. I can't get that either.

Having just installed Firefox for the 1st time my screen has gone dark. I am on a MAC which also has Safari on it. I have made the Firefox the main Browser. Can I make my screen brighter or should I take off Firefox.
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. From the troubleshooting you performed and the hotness I suspect a hardware proboem.

If under warranty and not bused Apple will exchange it at no cost. Otherwise
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $99 for 16 GB 5G and $149 for the other 5Gs. They do not fix yours.

== This happened ==
Just once or twice
== todayIt turns out that the problem had to do with network accounts, even though it was not clear at first. Redirecting the program to the local machine's cache with a network home redirector script fixed the issue. Thanks anyway.

Have just installed FireFox and it only starts in 'Safe Mode' ???
I was having problems uploading photos to Photobox... 'They' suggested installing FireFox
I haven't yet put a short cut on the tool bar, so when I click 'start' Firefox is highlighted as a new perog, but it states that it will only start in '(Safe Mode)'Those disk permissions results are harmless and are irrelevant here.

I am running Firefox 7.0.1 on Windows 7.
A blank page is the default for a new tab. You can middle-click the Home button to open a new tab with your homepage, or you can install this extension and set it for your homepage.

Do I have to alert adobe if I'm moving my product from one computer to another? or will they recognise my intentions when my product is removed from their database?
Is there a way to export my movie timeline (as in the organisation of my
clips, not just the movie) to a external hard drive. I thought publish
would help but I'm unsure and the export button under file doesn't light
up. I'm using Elements 11 and I'm trying to save it to a hard drive so I
can unistall the program, upgrade my operating system and reinstall.

I just installed Firefox and it is stuck on the "Choose a Profile" page and will not load...frozen. When I click on "Create a Profile", nothing happens. Anyone have any suggestions?
Try to delete the profiles.ini file to force Firefox to create a new profiles.ini file and a new default profile.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/profiles.ini_file
* C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile>\
The "Application Data" folder in XP/Win2K and the "AppData" folder in Windows Vista and Windows 7 and later versions are hidden folders.

Since upgrading Firefox 4, at start up I receive a 'problem loading page' message, which states I have 'Working Offline' checked. (I didn't check it) I go to menu and uncheck it, there are 3 tabs loaded, all the Monzilla welcome pages (congrats you have upgraded etc etc), and NOT my home page. If I hit home icon it takes me to my home page, but this is a pain in the neck. I am not tech savvy so please do NOT suggest a complicated fix. I would prefer to go back to 3.6 if possible, unless there is a simple solution to this problem
I fixed it!!! Following advice from similar posts, I searched the hard drive for "sessionrestore.js" in my Firefox Profiles folder (you'll need to enable viewing of hidden files in Windows Explorer (Tools > Folder Options > View (then select Hidden files option) then Apply to all folders) to do this). I then shut down Firefox, deleted the file and restarted - my home page was correct and it didn't try to open my old session! Some other posts suggested deleting everything called "sessionrestore" in that folder, but I didn't need to.

Just installed Firefox 3.6. Firefox will not start and Firefox safemode does not start either. Using Task manager I do not see if started either. If I create a new profile and start from that window, Firefox starts up. I see no error windows/messages. I do have it listed in my Firewall as an exception program with Permit All. What is happening?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== After removing Firefox and Reinstalling it. ==

In case you haven't solved this by now...
Sometimes your security software will block new programs from accessing the internet. Are you getting any alerts along those lines?
Sometimes Firefox will stall during startup and never display its window. In that case, you may need to manually "kill" the firefox.exe process using the Windows Task Manager before trying to start Firefox again.
You can display the Task Manager by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Esc. Windows 8.1 has a different display than Windows 7, so I have to go by memory. If you see a tab named Applications, check that one first. Then check Processes, and finally check Details. If you find Firefox or firefox.exe on any of those tabs, select it and End Process (or other action to shut it down).
After you are done with the Task Manager, try starting Firefox up again.

I updated firefox a couple weeks ago, but updating has never caused this problem.
I installed a program to help the computer run more efficiently, called "Fix-it Essentials," and that may have caused the problem, though it didn't for the first couple weeks I used it.
So I still can't get to the homepage of many websites and navigate as I want to.Simple really. The first 3 articles have steps in them, but not in this order.
#First, with Firefox closed, remove the toolbars from Windows ''Start > Settings > Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs''. After the window populates, look for the Toolbars; if there, click on them and click on the button to the right of it that says "Remove". Then restart your system ''Start > Shut down > Restart''
#*Article --> http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_toolbars#Uninstalling_via_Windows_Control_Panel
#Second, start Firefox and check in Firefox Add-ons: '''''Add-ons > Extensions'''''. Look for Yahoo Toolbar or Babylon and try to remove by clicking "Remove" or "Disable".
#*Article --> http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons <u>and</u> http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Cannot%20uninstall%20an%20add-on
#Restart Firefox by exiting (''Firefox button > Exit'' or ''File > Exit''), wait a few seconds (10-30), then click the Firefox desktop icon to start Firefox and test to see if the problem is resolved.
The last 3 articles are for other steps to take if the above does not work to solve your problem.

I just installed Firefox on a new HP 600-1120 with Windows 7 and it is only running in "safe" mode. Why? How do I get it to run in "regular" mode? How does "safe" mode differ?
> So now my question is, how can i fix this problem?
Use the Toshiba recovery disk or the Toshiba HDD recovery option.
If you dont have the Toshiba Recovery disk try the HDD recovery:
http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R01.htm
This works only if the recovery image files from Toshiba are still on the HDD:
If you installed the system using another disk as Toshiba recovery disk, this recovery option will not work. -
O?S is Vista Ultimate 32 bit fully updated. I have just installed Firefox 4.01. I have lost use of back and forward buttons - they are greyed out. Is there a solution please?
It is possible to have earlier data in a tab if the latest tab had target="_top" that means the back key will not work, but if your right-click on the back/forward you see a context menu. As far as I know the only difference between 3.6 and 4.0 ws that the drop-down arrow was dropped but like before you can still right-click.
There are some extensions that mess with the Back/Forward buttons.
There is a difference between gray and '''black''' on the buttons, '''black''' means there is history in that direction.
You can make Firefox 4.0.1 and Firefox 5.0 look like Firefox 3.6.17, see numbered items 1-10 in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 look like 3.6)] -
Just installed Firefox 4 but when I try to search for add-ons every result fails to find anything or the loading gui just keeps spinning. What should I try to fix this problem?
Glad you seem to have sorted things out.
The warning about the warranty is light hearted, I think at one stage it warned "here be dragons" but also intended to make us think as it warns that making changes may produce problems. -
I just installed Firefox and I have been trying to add the AVG toolbar to it but I just can't seem to be able to do that. I already had AVG Internet Security before installing Firefox today. Does anyone know how I can add the AVG toolbar to Firefox?
It seems no one here is familiar with this application.
Which IE settings need to be changed? While Firefox doesn't have the same approach to security (e.g., by "zone") there may be some parallels.
In case the problem is the built-in PDF viewer introduced in Firefox 19, try the steps in this article: [[How to disable the built-in PDF viewer and use another viewer]].
Does that make any difference?
