How do I stop the "Confirm Dialog Preference" box from appearing everytime I load a page?!

Every time I a go to a new page, whether it is the same site or not, I get a dialog box that appears that reads "Confirm Dialog Preference," and the options include yes or no. How do I get this to stop? It is really, really annoying.

Can you attach a screenshot showing the dialog?
Does the issue still occur if you start Firefox in Safe Mode? http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode
How about with a new, empty profile? http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Basic%20Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile

  • How do I stop the cartridge low warning message from appearing.

    Ticking the Box "In Future dont show me this" isn't making the messages stop.
    How do I overcome this please?

    Thanks for that old_geekster.
    Unfortunately, it turns out that the techo that installed the machine only gave me the drivers, as he claims that the HP programs were too extravagantly large! So, I don't have a HP program file and therefore no toolbox!
    Guess I'll just have to put up with clearing the excessive number of warning messages until I empty the cartridges. . . .
    Thanks for trying to help.

  • How do I stop the Browser settings change window from appearing in bottom right corner of my screen

    The following details appear in a small window of the bottom left of my screen which cannot be closed:
    Browser settings change
    ! an unknown change was detected on your browser's search settings:
    * Keep my current settings.
    * I am aware of this change and approve it
    Yes
    when I click on Yes or on red X nothing happens and small window is still visible.

    hello, this is usually caused by adware on your pc.
    please run a scan of your system with [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner] & also manually check that you don't have any suspicious entries like 3rd-party-toolbars presently installed under ''firefox > addons > extensions'' (adware like babylon also might install some unwanted stuff that comes under the names "Browser Manager", "Browser Protector", "Bprotector", "Object Installer", etc.) or in the windows control panel > programs section.
    afterwards install the search reset addon - it will revert the most common customziations those adware programs do in firefox back to the default: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/

  • How do I prevent the "Downloads" pop-up box from appearing when I open an attachment since Firefox also gives me the "Opening...txt" box?

    My software allows a user to open Attachments. I get a box with the title "Opening message1.txt" which also has an "Open with" radio button. I then click the OK button and my attachment is displayed. However, I also get a second box with the title "Downloads." How do change the Firefox Options to not get the Downloads box?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    Try posting at the Web Development / Standards Evangelism forum at MozillaZine. The helpers over there are more knowledgeable about web page development issues with Firefox.

  • How can I stop the download dialog from appearing every time I open Firefox 5.o latest version?

    Ever since I downloaded Firefox 5.0 the other day I get the download dialog every time I start Firefox 5.0.1. I told the download dialog to save Firefox 5.0.1 when I downloaded it. If I now say yes to the dialog it will download and save a new copy of the program like 5.0.1 (1). If I say cancel on the dialog I keep getting the dialog every time I start Firefox 5.0.1.

    I have heard that Norton released an update patch for Firefox 5.0 on Tuesday 06-21 when Firefox 5.0 was released. ''(versus taking their normal six to eight weeks)'' Some Norton users have reported that the toolbar may not work if the Norton patch was installed before Firefox 5.0, instead if after Firefox 5.0 was already installed.

  • How do I stop the Welcome to Firefox tab from opening every time I open Firefox?

    I have read two ways to try and stop this in the help but they either did not apply or I could not do what they suggest.
    Every time I open Firefox of late the Welcome to fire fox tab opens along with my home page. It is only a small annoyance to turn it off each time but I would like to stop it from happening. What can I do?
    I found another where they say to delete something out of the about.config but I was not able to delete the line. I could not find how to delete a line out of the about config.

    You can check the home page setting:
    *Tools > Options > General > Startup: Home page
    Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' (pipe) symbols.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
    There is software like Advanced SystemCare with its Surfing Protection feature that can protect files in the Firefox profile folder against changes.
    If you have such software then check the settings or uninstall this software.

  • How can I stop the login pop-up box for iCloud from repeating?

    I don't use iCloud so I click Cancel in the iCloud login box when I start up my iPad Mini. But this popup box won't take Cancel for an answer and it reappears at least three more times, every 10-15 seconds or so, interrupting what I'm doing - really annoying. Can I stop this pop-up box from repeating like this, and if so, how?

    Ah ok that all makes sense. You are correct that would turn off Find my iPhone. Based off the additional info you provided, it seems to me that the password needs to be updated. What I recommend doing next is entering the password when it prompts you to. If the password is incorrect in the settings then Find my iPhone may not be able to find the phone because it does not have the password authenticated.
    Then you can turn off any iCloud features you choose not to use with this article and leave only Find my iPhone enabled.

  • How do you stop the Knock Out title slide from moving?

    I'm attempting to stop the Knock Out slide from moving. I simply want the title to pop up and remain in one place. Right now, the title pops up and then moves across the screen. Appreciate any advice anyone has!

    Not sure what you're doing but my Knock Out zooms into the screen and eases to a stop. It then sits there until the end. It looks like this at the end:
    Is that what you have?

  • How to stop the [Annoying] Color Picker box from popping up on Illustrator CS5; Please Help!

    Yes, I'm talking about that box. It can get very annoying to constantly go back and forth to exit it out. I'm sure there should be some preferences option *somewhere* on Illustrator CS5 where you can prevent that annoying box from popping up all the dang time. It's almost like an ad. If the creators can make it automatically pop up, then there should be a way to turn off that feature. Otherwise this should be listed as another aggravating Illustrator feature that needs to get fixed.

    This has to be the most annoying thing in Illustrator and has been for the years I have been using it. I click on that icon to switch between having the stroke and fill selected, and it pops up the color panel in place of my swatches panel which is what I need.
    Let's say I have a swatch in my swatches panel that I want to use as the stroke for an object. I currently have the fill selected to work with, so I go down and click the stroke icon (shortcut for that is X but I prefer not to use the shortcut for that function). I then move back over to where my swatches panel is normally, but the damn color panel is covering it now! So I need to make an extra click back over to the swatches panel so I can use it. Such a minor little thing but so incredibly annoying.
    I usually work with a subset of colors in the swatches panel and when I need to use a color picker, I simply doubleclick on the fill/stroke icon on the toolbar. Thus, the color panel is completely useless to me in most cases.
    If I close a panel, any panel, it should not pop up unless I specifically go to the Window menu to enable it.

  • How can I stop these weird inert file images from appearing on my desktop?

    Inert file images keep appearing and cluttering up my desktop with names such as: 3FV2JEQy.JPG.part;  9wA_fwAk.JPG.part;  MpxSEQgY.jpg.part   etc.
    It seems to me that they are related to viewing photos from emails with "Preview". (They could be photos from iPhoto also. I cannot be certain).
    My desktop fills up with these weird inert file images and I have to go thru and delete them to clear the mess on my desktop. How can I stop this from occurring??
    Many thanks.

  • How can I stop my screen saver preferences pane from freezing up? every time i try to access it I get the spinning beach ball. Running 10.8.4

    Every time I open the desktop/screensaver pane in system preferences it freezes. Does anyone know how I can fix this?

    That's caused by a bug in automatic login, which corrupts the Desktop settings file, so delete it.
    Open a Finder window, select Go menu (on the menu bar) > Go to Folder, and type ~/Library/Preferences. Then, delete "com.apple.desktop.plist" and "com.apple.systempreferences.plist", and restart. OS X will create a new Desktop file in the next startup

  • How can I stop the 'Confirm' pop-up on my Facebook gifts page? Everytime I try to accept a gift, it asks me to press OK to continue to another page, or cancel to stay on the page. When I press OK, it cancels the gift out instead of accepting it.

    Sometimes it lets a gift through , but mostly it just erases my gifts on the same page.

    I haven't tested this long enough to say that this works always.
