Home Page setting does not survive a system re-start

I have recently started to have trouble with my Firefox Home Page. The settings get lost when I close Windows down and re-start.
I run Firefox 7.0.1 on Windows 7 Starter (SP1).
What have I done?
Set home page to iGoogle in Windows, set home page to iGoggle in Firefox
Result: Home Page setting does not survive a re-start.
Set home page to Blank in Windows, set Home Page to iGoogle in Firefox
Result: Home Page setting does not survive a re-start.
Set home page to iGoogle in Windows, set Home Page to Blank in Firefox
Result: Home Page setting does not survive a re-start.
Checked Firefox help, advised to edit User.j(?) file. Following the instructions failed to locate the User. file, a search of the entire C: drive failed to locate the file.
What next?

''' "Set home page to iGoogle in Windows ..." '''
Firefox has its' own setting for the Firefox homepage, it doesn't use "Internet Options" settings in Windows. <br />
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
As far as not having a '''user.js''' file, it isn't a standard file in Firefox. It is an optional file that the user creates to "lock" certain prefs or it might be added to Firefox via an add-on or by an "exploit" perpetrated on the user by another piece of software that they installed.

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    Delete the files sessionstore.js [2] and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    * Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.<br />
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

  • A Home Page That Does Not Require A Logon?

    I am a new user of Oracle Portal and I am trying to build a portal site for our department. I have an Oracle Portal using Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2 (10.1.2) SEOne for Windows and have the following question:
    Is it possible to create a portal page that a viewer sees immediately when the page renders for the URL without having to log on to the Portal?
    Essentially, we would like to create a page whereby a viewer will see an initial home page, then if the viewer is part of our department, they can then choose to log in to our Oracle Portal when necessary.
    Let me know if any of you have ideas.

    Hi
    In the page properties, access tab,just check the box that make the page public.

  • When clicking on a link firefox opens to my home page but does not go to the link.

    I've disabled all plugins and extensions then reset but still have the problem.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • Home page set to folder does not open links in multiple tabs. Only opens one and only partially.

    Hi there,
    In 'Tools / Options' my Home page set to a folder but does not open multiple links in tabs. It only opens the first link and only partially opens the page.
    The 4 pages I am trying to open are:
    http://www.live365.com/index.live
    http://www.facebook.com/login.php
    http://login.live.com/login.srf?wa=wsignin1.0&rpsnv=10&ct=1193340789&rver=4.5.2130.0&wp=MBI&wreply=http:%2F%2Fmail.live.com%2Fdefault.aspx&id=64855
    http://webmail.123-reg.co.uk/index.php

    Hi this did not work either.
    Also when I tried to log into this forum the browser just kept taking back to the login page. There were no errors, it was as if it was stuck in a loop. The page refreshed but moved no where. My user name and password were there but nothing happened. It took a reboot to allow access.
    This seems to be something I have noticed. When a page reopens on start up or from a link it will not load the page properly causing errors.
    Also on a similar note the new Firefox is not remembering passwords. Specifically to hotmail.
    Cheers,
    Ash.

  • In the home page why does Firefox say I haven't upgraded when I have. This has been going on for over three weeks, I am now on 9 and still it says I have not upgraded.

    In the home page why does Firefox say I haven't upgraded when I have. So I upgrade again and still it says I haven't next time I log on. Today I upgraded to 9, it said congratulations on upgrading, I log off then log back on only to be told yet again I need to upgrade. What is going on?

    You may see that message below the Google search box on www.google.com/firefox which is the old Firefox default home page. It appears that page is no longer being maintained. You appear to have Firefox 8.0.1 installed which is the latest version.
    '''If you want the Google search page as your home page,''' change your home page to '''''about:home''''' (a new, updated version is now built-in to Firefox).

  • System setting does not allow changes to be made to object LSYS

    Hi
    Im trying to create the process chain in BW-Production System . Like im trying to delete the PSA data for one datasource in BI7.0 .
    Im using the 'Delete requests from the PSA' process type in the process chain . When i try to give the datasource name and source system name in the variant of 'Delete requests from the PSA' process type and save them , then it is saying that
    System setting does not allow changes to be made to object LSYS
    Why it is saying like that . But i can able to include the other process types in the process chain .
    regards
    mohammed

    Dear Mohammed,
    Since you are trying to create process chain in production system.
    Normally production system wont be open for development at any time. Why the system settings does not allow changes was, your production is not modifiable state.
    Check the settings in SE06. system would be non-modifiable for sure.
    in SCC4,  settings ->"changes to the cross customizing objects would be not allowed"
    These two settings/configurations would not allow any development or changes or edit or create in production.
    Please check with your basis folks and proceed further.
    Hope this would help you more in understanding

  • 'My Application Page' is not allowed here because it does not extend class 'System.Web.UI.Page'

    I have a custom SharePoint 2010 solution that includes an aspx page. The aspx page in is in the /layouts folder within the solution and I created it by just adding an application page to the solution. I am trying to create a parent-child relationship between
    two different lists in SharePoint. From the parent I have a custom button on the ribbon that creates a child item with the ID of the parent stamped on it.
    The page is just a processing page that forwards on parameters from the parent to the new child item. (i.e. the ID value)
    The code generated when I add the aspx page is below:
    <%@ Assembly Name="$SharePoint.Project.AssemblyFullName$" %>
    <%@ Import Namespace="Microsoft.SharePoint.ApplicationPages" %>
    <%@ Register Tagprefix="SharePoint" Namespace="Microsoft.SharePoint.WebControls" Assembly="Microsoft.SharePoint, Version=14.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c" %>

    The code behind is as follows:

    using Microsoft.SharePoint.Utilities;
    using System.Reflection;

    catch (Exception ex)
    LoggingService.LogError("My.Solution - Processing Page", ex.Message);
    finally
    //DO SOME FINAL THINGS HERE WHEN REQUIRED.
    In the page I need to use Request.QueryString to get the values from the URL. But when I deploy the solution and load the page I get the error:
    'MY.Solution.Layouts.MY.Solution.processingpage' is not allowed here because it does not extend class 'System.Web.UI.Page'.
    When I change the line:
    <%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="processingpage.aspx.cs" Inherits="MY.Solution.Layouts.MY.Solution.processingpage" MasterPageFile="~/_layouts/application.master" %>
    to inherit as follows:
    <%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="processingpage.aspx.cs" Inherits="Microsoft.SharePoint.WebControls.LayoutsPageBase" MasterPageFile="~/_layouts/application.master" %>
    it does not work either.
    If I change it to inherit like below:
    <%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="processingpage.aspx.cs" Inherits="System.Web.UI.Page" MasterPageFile="~/_layouts/application.master" %>
    it also does not work.
    What does this error actually mean?  And why doesn't the default code generated by Visual Studio work?

    @NadeemYousuf I have tried this too and it didn't work.  
    What does the error even mean?  And why does the error appear with default Visual Studio code?  In my example I have just added a basic application page with no other code in it and it still does not work.
