How do I set Firefox to start on login in full screen mode and permanently disable the tool bars?

I am trying to set up a touch screen windows 7 lenovo desktop for use by older users with no prior experiance of PC's. I would like Firefox to start on login and open in full screen mode, with all toolbars disabled. Is this possible? and if so how do I go about doing this?

If you close Firefox 4 while in full screen mode then the browser should start in full screen mode the next time. That setting is stored in localstore.rdf in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder].
If you want to prevent toolbars from opening if you hover to the top then hide the full-screen-toggler with code in userChrome.css
Add code to userChrome.css below the @namespace line.

  • HOW DO I GET OUT OF FULL SCREEN MODE AND BACK TO THE HOME PAGE?

    I was at a website and expanded the view to full screen mode. i pressed ESCAPE but it would not return the screen to smaller size. I had to press CONTROL+ALT+DELETE end the session. Now, when I restart Firefox it wants to restore the session. I have no status bar at the top and returning to home page. I hope this information helps.

    Thank you very much! I tried that already but did not move the cursor high enough.
    Dear Apple designers: please bring back something like a button, to help those who can not find this type of thing. Minimalistic design should be in such way that you find how to do these type of things without going to a forum.

  • My start up disk is full safe mode shows no icons or tool bar. Please help

    My start up disk is full and when I turn on the computer I get just a blue screen . I have restarted many times in safe mode however I do not get a tool bar or icons or anything ... Only wallpaper / background ... Nothing else. Please help

    Your hard drive is too full. You need to delete some stuff. You should have at least around 10% of the total hard drive capacity free.

  • How do I set Firefox to ALWAYS open with my selected home page, and never show the page trying to reopen a previously opened site?

    Frequently when I reopen Firefox, I am greeted with a page that wants to reopen a previously viewed site. I '''never''' want this page to come up when I open Firefox. I only want the home page to open. If I want to revisit a site, I will personally go there the normal way. This is a feature of Firefox that could just as well be permanently removed. How do I change the settings in Foxfire so I always get what I want when I open Foxfire?

    Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.
    "Clear the Cache":
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    You can remove all data stored in Firefox from a specific domain via "Forget About This Site" in the right-click context menu of an history entry ("History > Show All History" or "View > Sidebar > History") or via the about:permissions page.
    Using "Forget About This Site" will remove all data stored in Firefox from that domain like bookmarks, cookies, passwords, cache, history, and exceptions, so be cautious and if you have a password or other data from that domain that you do not want to lose then make a note of those passwords and bookmarks.
    You can't recover from this 'forget' unless you have a backup of the affected files.
    It doesn't have any lasting effect, so if you revisit such a 'forgotten' website then data from that website will be saved once again.

    When I open iTunes it will automatically go to full screen mode. I can't work out how to turn this off. Only iTunes opens to full screen mode.

    Go to System Preferences (under the Apple logo in the menu bar).  Choose "General".  Click "Always close windows when quitting an application".
    That should fix it.

  • I was using the newest version on OSX 10.7.5 and I was in full screen mode and viewing a photo and it was impossible to exit full screen. This happened at 11:03pm on Friday April 12, 2013. How to fix

    I was using the newest version on OSX 10.7.5 and I was in full screen mode and viewing a photo and it was impossible to exit full screen. This happened at 11:03pm on Friday April 12, 2013. I deleted this from my apps and then deleted iphoto from my purchases in macbook app store the search it the app store and it says it has still been installed. What can I do to fix it?

    Well deleting it from your machine was not the way to go.
    Deleting it from your Purchases List was definitely not the way to go.
    So, I'm not really sure how you're going to reinstall it.
    But figure that out and we can try help. Contact App Store support. There's a link on the right hand side of the App Store Window. They should be able to get it back on your purchases list so you can reinstall it.

  • How Can I set QT to open ALL files in Full Screen Automatically?

    Am I missing something obvious here, or is this a major option missing in preferences of QT? I know that you can set this option for EACH movie in the Presentation tab in the movie's Properties, but I have 1000's of clips on my computer. I just want EVERY movie to automatically open up in full screen mode. This seems like it should be an obvious universal option for QT rather than handled individually for each file (with the option to over ride it per file if you wish for some reason).
    Plus setting the option per file is not even practical, because in order to save that option in a file that is not .mov file QT wants to convert it to .mov and save copy of the file...

    I am still pretty sure, say 95%, (do not recall perfectly - to many things on my mind... hihi) that the settings in Quicktime in the Preferences DID work before.
    QT Player "Preference" settings only control how the content is displayed in the "Full Screen" mode -- not how it is activated. Pop-up options include:
    1) Half Size,
    2) Actual Size,
    3) Double Size,
    4) Fit to Screen,
    5) Fill Screen,
    6) Panoramic, or
    7) Current Size
    The options are available individually for "widescreen", "standard", or "other" aspect movie formats. The only other method of I can think of using the QT Player to automatically open in the the "Full Screen" presentation mode would be using a QTL file linked to your original source file but it setting the "Full Screen" option is "boring" for you, then creating QTL files would be even more so.

  • Starting Java app in full-screen mode.

    Did you mean Full Screen Exclusive Mode (so that you can do page flipping, etc...)?

  • Is there a way to set an application to always open in full screen mode?

    Some applications I would like to default to full screen on startup (iPhoto for example).  Is there a setting for that, or do I need to manually switch to full screen every time I launch it?
    Thanks!

    Have been searching for this as well. Mail, Safari, iWorks always opens full-screen. iPhoto and iMovies does not. Have a feeling that for now that feature is not working in iPhoto and iMovies.

  • HT1420 How do I set up parental control on book downloads?  My daughter and I use the same Apple ID info.

    How do I set up parental controls on my apple account, I want to censor the books that she's dowloading. We use the same account  Thanks!

    Turning off in-app purchases and the App Store itself would be the best bet for you. You can always unlock these features as needed and lock them again.
    Apart from restricting purchases, there are a number of other restrictions you can setup. You can even setup a safe browser with remote parental controls from the App Store, like the one from Mobicip. You may find this tutorial to be helpful: How to setup Parental Controls on the iPad.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to output Macbook Pro VGA to LCD TV in full screen mode?

    I Have a Macbook Pro 2007 with DVI to VGA output. I have connected it to my Toshiba LCD TV and am able to get a screen image on the TV without any difficulty. The problem is that the TV display is not full screen. I can't find any way to increase the size of the picture on the TV. Is this a limitation of the output or the TV display?
    Thanks for any help.

    Hi Macbook17Pro,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    You may need to set the resolution on your Mac's display settings to match the resolution of your tv.
