How do I keep my tabs open when I close firefox? I have tried the method in this site (tools- options- general- when firefox starts... but it didn't work.

I used to be able to close firefox and have all my opened tabs saved. When I open firefox again, those tabs will be opened as I last closed firefox.
Now, I am not able to do it. The firefox was crashed at one time earlier and I have to open the task manager to force it to close because it is frozen and so was my computer. After I opened it again, there is no tabs saved which I kinda expected. Then I
go on web surfing and browse various websites. Now, when I close firefox, a box pops up warning me about the opened
tabs will be closed. So I googled the symptom and it brought me to this website, telling me that if I set
"tools->open->general->When firefox starts" to "Show my windows and tabs from last time", it should behave as it was before.
I tried that but it doesn't work.
Any help is appreciated.

In case you use "Clear history when Firefox closes" or otherwise clear history:
*do not clear the Browsing History
*Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history": [X] "Clear history when Firefox closes" > Settings
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/remove-recent-browsing-search-and-download-history
Clearing "Site Preferences" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, software installation, passwords, and other website specific data.

I am running safari 7.0.6 with IOS 10.9.4. after the mac has been asleep and I log on I cannot open safari as it appears to have crashed. the workaround to this is to reboot the IOS and log back in after which safari will open.

I am running safari 7.0.6 with IOS 10.9.4. after the mac has been asleep and I log on I cannot open safari as it appears to have crashed. the workaround to this is to reboot the IOS and log back in after which safari will open. Any ideas on how to resolve this?

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
          SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
          View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the name of the crashed application or process. For example, if iTunes crashed, you would enter "iTunes" (without the quotes.)
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
In the Console window, select
          DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ User Diagnostic Reports
(not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of crash reports. The name of each report starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report related to the process in question. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.

How do I get my sd card out of the cd slot.. I have tried the method shown on youtube and it is not working

How do i get my sd card out of the cd slot.. I have tried the method shown on youtube and it's not working

Shut down the machine, turn it on it's side and shake it out. If you still can't get it try another solution on YouTube, there are many shown. We Have no idea which one you tried. If you still can't get it out take the machien into your local Apple Store or AASP and they will help you.

How may I get my Ipad 2 to power on? I have tried the two button approach and it did not work.

My Ipad 2 will not power on. I have tried the two button approach but it did not work. Until last evening, the Ipad was working very well. After it entered the sleep mode, it would not come back on. What can I do?

The first thing to suspect is a completely drained battery. When this happens the iPad shuts down and will not turn on. Even if you charge the iPad it may take more than 30 minutes before it responds. Plug the iPad into the charger that came with it and plug the charger into a known good wall outlet. Do not charge the iPad by connecting it to a computer. Wait 30 minutes. Then reset the iPad. Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button continuously until the Apple logo appears. Then release the button and let the device restart. You will not lose data doing this. It's like a computer reboot.
If the iPad restarts let it continue to charge until the battery is at 100%. If the iPad does not restart consider making an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

How do I keep multiple tabs open in Firefox?

When using Firefox if I am working in a session under one tab and need to open up a different browser, I use the "+" to add another tab and open up a different session. When I go back to the first tab to work, it closes the session on me and I have to log back in again. This is so frustrating! Is this a Firefox thing or did I turn something off on my mac? I am not a computer geek so I apologize if my lingo jives.

Well I'm assuming here you have your OS X 10.6 fully Software Updated and Firefox is at the latest version.

This might be a security issue with the site your logged into, to prevent cross site scripting/hijacking etc. depending upon the site.
I suggest you delete all your installed add-ons, delete Firefox and reinstall FF and it's add-ons for security reasons.
The latest version of FF is 6.01 and removes the compromised Diginor Certificate domain that might be causing your issue with the logged in site.
In your Keychain program in OS X, under the preferences set the certificates to Best Attempt, Best Attempt, OCSP and reboot this will enable constant checks for compromised certificates upon each SSL visit.
Naturally Apple and Microsoft are late to the party in updating their certificates.

How do I keep my tabs open?

With the latest build of Firefox Android, the tab bar will not remain open. As soon as I start interacting with the page, the tab bar slides closed. I'd like for it to remain open.

This is a tablet, which is why I want to leave it open. When I open the tab bar, the whole page slides to the side instead of scaling like it used to. I'm not sure if that's related or not.
I've tried to force close just to make sure I'm loading with that set to false and it doesn't seem to work.
Thanks for your help so far. This behavior is really annoying and I'd hate to have to switch back to Chrome after switching everything over to Firefox!

Despite setting "open my home page" in the Tools Options General Startup, Firefox insists on a blank tab.

I'm using Firefox 4.0 with TabMixPlus and AdBlock Plus on Windows XP Home, SP3. When I log in as a local administrator in Windows, new tabs open correctly and display a home page, but when my non-admin users (mother-in-law!) run Firefox, the application insists on a blank tab. It also shows a bizarre "nested" view with two sets of Windows title bars stacked at the top of the screen.
There's a weird orange "Firefox" dropdown menu atop the second one, and it's full of cool options... none of which does a thing to change this behavior.
Short of giving my mother-in-law admin privileges, how can I get Firefox to respect her GUI choices?

New tabs open by default a blank tab, so it looks that you have an extension that opens the home page instead.
You can look at one of these extensions:
* NewTabURL : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/newtaburl/
* New Tab Homepage : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage/
Quote: ''It also shows a bizarre "nested" view with two sets of Windows title bars stacked at the top of the screen. ''
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
In Firefox 4 [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode Safe mode] disables extensions and disables hardware acceleration.
* Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See:
* [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]]
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins"
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

How can I format an SD card on my mac? I have tried the erase thing but when I put the card into my 35mm camera it says that the card has to be formatted.

I just purchased two new SanDisk 8gb SD cards for my trail cameras. When I put the cards into the trail cameras, the cameras will take pictures but it won't store them on the cards. When I put the cards into my 35mm camera the camera tells me that the cards need to be formatted. I have went through the steps in the disk utilities and erased the cards, which I assume is the same as formatting them?? I have tried this for hours and have had no luck getting these things to work at all. It was awful disgusting when I checked my two trail cameras the first time and found out that they had taken close to 75 pictures but the cards were empty. When I bought my 35mm camera several years ago, I bought a couple of Kodak SD cards and used them right out of the package and never had to do any of this formatting thing. I don't understand what is going on and could sure use some help with this. Thanks for any information anyone can give me with this problem. I would love to have seen what animals set my cameras off 75 times in the last few days. Thanks again.
Respectully
Jim

AFAIK cameras offer their own built-in format utility for inserted SD cards. You should use that. Otherwise, refer to the manual that came with your camera to determine precisely how your SD cards need to be formatted to work properly. Personally, I'd suggest Partition Scheme: MBR, and Filesystem: FAT32.
Try to limit the number of formats you perform on the SD cards, though, as you're reducing their lifespan. I believe formatting causes re-writes to a portion of the SD card that has fewer read/write cycles than the rest of the card as a whole.

Firefox 4.01. I wish to have "Mozila Firefox S tart Page" as Start Page. I have used "How to set the home page" (tools, options, general, restory to default) but no result.

# Numbered list item

The part you are probably missing is
When Firefox starts: "Start my Home page" (in the dropdown)
the installed default home page is about:home in Firefox 4, but simply choose the "Restore to Default",
then click on the "OK".
see [https://support.mozilla.com/kb/How%20to%20set%20the%20home%20page How to set the home page | How to | Firefox Help]
If that is not working then try instructions , and following the instructions suggest taking a picture of your toolbars first, so that you will be able to recustomize your toolbars afterwards, see [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Corrupt_localstore.rdf Corrupt localstore.rdf - MozillaZine Knowledge Base]
After resetting, continue with [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Toolbar_customization Toolbar customization - MozillaZine Knowledge Base] and if you used small icons -- don't forget the checkmark for that in the dialog.

How do I keep my tabs open in Firefox for Android?

Sometimes when I open Firefox for Android my tabs will disappear and I will need to scroll to the bottom of "Recent Tabs" and press "Open All." How do I set it so that my tabs stay open? This closing seems to happen every day or two and it means I need to keep reopening all my tabs. They shouldn't close unless I close them.

Hello there,
Try going to: Firefox Menu > Settings > Customize > Tabs to 'Always restore'.
Hope this helps!

if you want to have lossless files, rip CD's as Apple Lossless.
to change the settings, go iTunes > preferences > general. click on import settings, then import using and select Apple Lossless encoder. your CD's will be ripped accordingly.
to convert existing files to a different format, repeat as above but choose e.g. AAC encoder. below, select the bit rate (e.g. iTunes plus for 256 kbps AAC).
next, highlight the files to be converted in iTunes and choose create AAC version from the advanced menu.

FF4 keep asking me to "save password" even if i already pick the "never for this site" option... any solutions?

just that

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).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the ''Safe mode'' start window.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (on Mac: "Firefox > Quit")
