How can I prevent pages loading twice?

Practically every time I click on a link in an email (Outlook 2007) Firefox 3.6.6. loads the page, displays "stopped" and then reloads it, leaving two tabs with the same title.
When I looked for a solution in this forum, searching for "firefox loads pages twice" I got 514 results filling 52 pages, but I soon discovered that though various versions of the question had been asked, there appeared to be no answer, and some replies got into technicalities that were beyond the average user of firefox.
So I raise two points:
1 Can we have a better filter in the forums that does not list every individual hit on a word in the query, but only on the complete phrase (putting it in quotes did not help)?
2. Has a solution been found yet?
== URL of affected sites ==
http://

What is the point of this forum if over 500 people have a problem with pages loading twice, but nobody, neither volunteers nor someone from Mozilla, can provide a solution?
Perhaps it is time to switch to Opera.

  • How can I prevent pages from opening documents from last session

    During my last session using Pages I selected and opened several documents. These documents were image heavy and pages froze.  Now I can't open any document without pages trying to open all these documents and freezing.   I've spent two hours trying to open a simple document     This is a major design flaw if it can't be turned off. 
    This is on a 2010 iMac running Lion and up to date Pages

    Close any documents before quitting Pages & they won't open the next time Pages is launched. Unless you're shutting down your Mac, I don't see any reason to quit Pages.
    You can use the free Lion Tweaks or TinkerTool to turn off resume for individual applications. I prefer TinkerTool.

  • How can I prevent Pages 5.0 from upgrading?

    I am very happy with Pages 4.3, but upgraded with 5.0 only to throw it in the bin after I discovered it was not what I wanted. That was great!
    But every day since, Apple tells me that Pages 5.0 is ready to upgrade, which I don't want. But I can't get rid of the update reminder from App store and it irritates me to have to tell them to remind me in 24 hours (the longest option), when I DON'T WANT IT AT ALL! Weird, huh?
    So, I JUST WANT PAGES 5.0 TO GO AWAY...what do I do?

    Salve mende1!
    Pages 5.0 installed itself today, without asking first. I could of course do as I have done before, throw it out, but I assume it will be back again, and again, and again, 'til the day I die...
    I just have to get on with my life. In some sense, I guess we relinquish some control over our decision-making, when we buy a computer, and like a headache, one cannot wish it weren't so but rather learn to live with the fact that sometimes, one has headaches.
    My objection is that Pages 5.0 appears to have given priority to iPad, compatibility, smooth moves, modern looks, etc, whereas my needs were more met by 4.3, where I exercise a greater control over my way of working.
    As it is, I have to actively open Pages 4.3 before I open a document, possibly a bit cumbrous and in my view plain silly, since opening a document straight invokes that little devil down in my computer (5.0), and out pops a different document from the one I worked on yesterday...
    In sum, I find it a bit arrogant and somewhat disrespectful from Apple but there are worse crimes committed in the world of computers today. At the end of the day, I'd rather be me with my 4.3 issue than Angela Merkel, having someone's ear on my tongue.

  • How can I prevent driver loading by Labview?

    My application is working with few different Frame Grabbers and DAQ boards. There is any way to set by setup file wich Frame grabber and DAQ board are exist and the application will load only existing boards drivers or I always have to install all boards drivers?

    You will have to load them as Dynamic VIs.  You would call only the one you need.

  • How can I prevent videos from automatically starting when I load a web site?

    Recently web sites have begun not only showing me the first shot of a video, but starting the video automatically when the page loads (or when I scroll down to the part of the page where the video is located). This happens on various news sites (nytimes.com), facebook, and other places. How can I prevent the autostart from happening?
    I've got AdBlockPlus and NoScript enabled, although I whitelist many sites in NoScript. Videos used to wait for me to click an arrow in the middle (like a "play" button) to start; some still do, but most don't. (I believe an add-on is responsible for the play button, but I don't recall which one.)
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks.

    The chosen answer is not an answer at all.
    The question remains unanswered: How does one prevent unwanted video content from playing automatically on web websites? The problem is most notable on news sites such as ABC News.
    It is really, really, really really really, really, really, really really really, really, really, really really really irritating. More irritating, in fact, than when people cut and paste a word a dozen times to emphasize it.
    MORE IRRITATING THAN WHJEN PEOPLE USE ALL CAPS OUT OF FRUSTRATION BECAUSE NO ONE SEEMS TO LISTEN OR TO CARE THAT I AM SLOWLY LOSING MY MIND BECAUSE EVERY FLIPPING WEB PAGE IN EXISTENCE PLAYS VIDEAS THAT I DON'T WANT TO WATCH.
    More irritating than repeatedly stating the same thing over and over and over and over... wait. I already illustrated that tautology. Never mind.
    Does anyone have an answer? If there is no answer, and the powers that be at Firefox have decided that we have no choice, then state so. If those who decide what HTML "is" have decided that individuals have no power to opt out of video content on any given web page, then say so.
    If Obama is to blame, then say so. If Bush is to blame, then say so.
    But don't say, "the web [page may be using HTML 5 to play video" because THAT is a NON-ANSWER, let alone the "best" answer.

  • How can I prevent filter from getting applies to .html page?

    Hi,
    I have a MyFaces filter that I don't want applied to pages ending in ".html". However, upon visiting the "/myapp/index.html" page of my application, I get an internal server error, and the stack trace indicates that the filter is being invoked. How can I prevent such a filter from being applied to ".html" pages? The stack trace and the web.xml file are below.
    Thanks, - Dave

    I got that error when using the request URL /myapp/ or /myapp/index.html.
    Regarding,
    At any way, you should map the ExtensionsFilter on the FacesServlet rather than on any url-pattern. Could you elaborate on what you mean? Maybe with an example?
    Thanks, - Dave

  • How can I stop page scrolling to form on loading?

    Hello.
    My page has a list of services available on it and then right at the bottom there is a form people can complete with name and email to contact me if they wish.
    The problem is that this is quite a way down the page and on loading, the page scrolls down to the bottom automatically with the caret flashing in the Name field of the form.
    How can I prevent this from happening.
    Thank you
    Terry

    Sounds like you have a bit of javascript adding focus to the form onload.
    A link would be best, but if you see something like this in your <body> tag, deleting it should do the trick...
    <body onload="document.form.textfield.focus();">

  • IPad bombs out returns to home page using Google Earth and other random Apps, why and how can I prevent it happening?

    iPad bombs out returns to home page using Google Earth and other random Apps, why and how can I prevent it happening?

    Quit/close all apps and restart the iPad.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    You can try this as well.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

    I use chrome on my iPad Air. When I open the ipad it often flashes a page that I had viewed for a second or two and then it is gone. How can I prevent this?

    I don't know if you can prevent it at all. The same ting happens to me in other apps - not just web browsers. I realize that since it's a web browser, there might be something that you don't want someone else to see if they use your iPad, so If it bothers you that much, close Chrome when you are done with it.
    Double tap the home button to bring put the multitasking display. Find the Chrome app preview window and drag it up off the screen to close it.

  • Prior saved .pdf sometimes has blacked out content. How can I prevent this?

    I use Mac OS 9 Maverick, read email in Mail.app and Yahoo.Mail, switch between Safari and Firefox for browsing (because Safari does not allow Flash videos to appear on pages).  When I want to save an email or an html file or report as .pdf, I use Command-P and select Save As PDF from the Print popup.  Normally, I can go back years later and read the .pdf document in the Home File I filed it in using Adobe Reader.  Sometimes, however, when I open a .pdf file--and I cannot tell prior to opening it--all of the content has been blacked out.  It is as if someone redacted the document after filing it, which I don't do. 
    How can I prevent these redactions?  The content being blacked out varies from extremely personal and important health files to simple email correspondence I want to save.  Sometimes I have paid for a document and have to contact the publisher to send hard copy via USPS due to this problem.
    What am I missing here?  Do I need a specific plug-in?  Is there a way to retrieve the blacked-out content from my computer stored file?

    The Amazon iWork '09 is a DVD in a boxed set.
    Downloading is transferring something from the Internet.
    I think you are talking about not having a DVD drive?
    To install the DVD version, either get an external USB DVD drive, they are cheap on eBAy or borrow another computer and drag the iWork Installer onto a USB Flash Drive and install from that.

  • How can I prevent Firefox from re-installing test pilot?

    I had removed the test pilot extension and its feedback button in Firefox 4.0b9. I let Firefox upgrade itself to 4.0b10 and didn't notice that silently re-installed it.
    I was typing in another application when suddenly that window was minimized and the focus shifted to a Firefox "new test pilot study" window that popped up. Even if I had given permission for that software to be installed, that is rude.
    I am not willing to trust that if I disable this logging software that it will stay disabled the next time I upgrade. I will remove test pilot again. '''How can I prevent Firefox from re-installing it?'''
    One way might be to set extensions.rdf read-only. However, I do not wish to lose the ability to install add-ons, I merely do not want anybody (including Mozilla) to install an add-on without my permission.
    https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=519357 doesn't seem to address this problem as test pilot is a known component. Its not a plug-in so I can't modify the plugin scanning settings to prevent it from being loaded. Is there some way I can reliably supplement http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/blocklist/ with a local block list file? If so, would I have to update that whenever a new version of test Pilot is released?

    I'm not sure what you mean by "re-directs e-mails." Are the recipient addresses changing between the time you address the message and the time it is sent?
    If you could provide more information I think that would help in tracking this down.
    When you use Firefox to work with your webmail site, whether Yahoo! or Gmail or another, the mechanics of sending the mail are handled by the site itself. So if there is a problem with how messages are addressed, then you may need to check your Yahoo! mail settings.

  • How can I prevent my iPod nano from turning on by itself and running down the battery?

    I will arrive at my desk in the morning, stop the podcast I'm listening to, notice by the "play" button appearing on the screen and that absence of audio in my ears that the podcast has actually stopped, hold the big oval button down until the screen goes dark, and set my iPod down on the desk. Every now and again (maybe twice a week) I'll catch the iPod playing. It's usually off playing music (i.e. it's somehow navigated away from the podcast I've been listenting to and ended up in a music shuffle somewhere), and it will continue playing until the battery runs down or until I happen to notice it and turn it off. Doesn't only happen at work, happens anywhere...home, car. Result is that once or twice a week I go to use the iPod and the battery has completely run down.
