How do I tell FiIrefox to only restore a sesson of more than one tab, and disregard the restore of a single tab session (ie. closing the browser)

I am on the beta channel of Firefox (currently 17.0, by the about window) and I cannot seem to find a way to limit the size of a browsing session that is automatically restored when re-opening the browser. In the past, Firefox would only save sessions of more than one tab when closing the entire application, and ask me about restoring said session when restarted. Now, Firefox seems to treat a session of just a single tab the same, which is a preference I dislike, given that I use a blank start page to great effect.
I am using a number of addons, including Tab Mix Plus, which specifically modifies tab behavior (although I have it configured to use Firefox's default session manager), but the problem persists even with all addons disabled.
I cannot seem to find an option in about:config to change this behavior. Is this a permanent change within Firefox, and if so, is there or will there be an option to specify the number of tabs that constitute a session that will be automatically saved?

Make sure that Firefox closes properly to prevent session restore from restoring a crashed session.

    Depends on how strong your wifi connection is.
    you can try a reset hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release.

    How do I select more than one picture and send them all to Facebook on my iPhone 4s with iso7?

    Hi, I want to thank you for all your information regarding my questions about sending more than one photo to Facebook. I did have to stop in at Verizon (where I bought my iPhone) to find out why I did not have a choice to choose Facebook with the export icon. The tech had to go into my setting and enable Facebook to recognize my iPhone. When I upgraded to iso7 somehow it could not recognize Facebook. Once he did this for me I was able to follow your advice and your answer solved my question. Thank you

    something went wrong with my apple tv and now it says that it is in retail demo mode. How can i fix it?  I have had it for more than one year without any problem

    To turn on/off retail mode, go to settings, general, legal.
    Do not open legal, just put the cursor there.
    Then, on the remote, type this sequence : right - right - left - center.
    The AppleTV should reboot.

  • Why only 5gb space if owning more than one device?

    I own 3 iphones and 2 ipads. Why only 5gb icloud space? I feel a bit ripped off here!
    Each of these products should come with its own 5gb space.
    5 gb. Is only enough for backup of one device!
    Sure you can get 5gb space for each product if you create account for each product and then having to pay for apps for each product. Its a total ripoff:(
    Change this please.
    Forcing me to in some way pay 50 bucks extra a year for security backup space is not fair in any way. I would actually pay for extra space for pictures etc. If i did not feel that apple were trying to take even more money from my wallet:/

    -Use a separated Apple ID for each iPhone for iCloud, iMessage and FaceTime.
    -Use the current one for iTunes and App Stores. (This way you will pay ones for each app).
    -Export your Camera Roll to a Computer just like you do with a Digital Camera Card. (This way you will save space from iCloud and from devices.
    -Use one of these 3 account to sync your iPads with the account you want or make a 4th or 5th account if you don't want to sync iCloud data with one of you iPhones.
    Remind that you can add more than one iCloud account (secondary account) if you want to sync some data from iCloud. (For example you can sync your iPhone Contacts in your iPad even if you are using another iCloud account (primary) in this iPad).
    Also you can share a calendar between devices that using a different iCloud account.

  • How more than one MDB can be made to run in single transaction

    Hi All,
    I am working on EJB 2.0 with Application server as Websphere 5.0 and Messaging middleware as WebSphere MQ5.3
    I am facing a design issue, I need to use more than one MDB in single transaction unit. Since an MDB can only run in transaction started by itself I am looking for some alternative approach
    The problem in detail is as below:
    Consider there is an MDB M1 listening on Queue Q1
    Bean M1 reads Message (say msg1) from Q1, writes another message into Q2.
    We have a mainframe system which reads message from Q2 does some processes and write it's response into Queue Q3.
    Now we have another MDB M2 in same application server listening on Q3.
    The requirement is if there is any ERROR in message at Q3, transaction started by MDB M1 should be rolled back and hence the message (i.e msg1) should be put back on queue.
    Since trancation started by MDB M1 and M2 are independent I do not have any control to rollback M1 from M2.
    Pls suggest me what alternative approach I can use.

    I think if you are using container managed
    transaction and have set the trans attribute to
    "required" then MDB M-1 and MDB M-2
    should have same container transaction.
    wrong !
    There is never a client transaction context available when a message-driven bean is invoked because a transaction context does not flow with a JMS message. [EJB spec. 2.0 15.4.7]

  • How to force waveform graph cursors to show Y value on more than one plot?

    Hello
    Is it possible to show more than one Y value on waveform graph cursors?
    Thanks in advance.
    Pawel

    Hi Dennis
    That is correct, on graph woth multiple plots I want to display multiple Y values of plots at the same X value.
    I know I can use property node to access cursor list etc. and this is how I have done it, but my question was rather if it is possible to force the cursor legend to display more than one Y value (as a native display). As a default it displays one value and you can choose which plot you want to stick to, but it would be a great feature to have possibility to expand cursor legend to display more than one value.
    The question has nice consequences. If it was possible, you could use a property node to export image of the graph, control sizes, or even simple "copy" data from the popup menu. Otherwise we need to "artificially" glue the exter
    nal controls displaying Y values if we want to export pictures, etc.
    But since you did not answer that I supose it is not possible, as I thought.
    thanks anyways.
    kind regards

  • If I delete my iTunes and re-install will it tell me that I am logged on to more than one iTunes?

    My iTunes is telling me that i am logged on to more than one iTunes with my ipod, so if i just delete iTunes on my computer will it still telll me that i am logged onto more than one iTunes account? And if i do delete it will all of my apps be deleted off my iPod? I don't really mind if all of my music/videos/etc. get deleted just not my apps.

    Ideally would would have a backup of the library that you previously managed the device with. It's not so much the deleting of the apps, you can download those again, but the loss of any data associated with them.
    You should be able to:
    Backup the device to the new installation
    Transfer your purchases into a newly authorized library
    Recover any other media using third party tools as suggested in this post from forum regular Zevoneer
    Restore the device from the backup
    This process should switch the association of the device to the new library, preserving the data and settings in your apps.
    May also be prudent to attempt a backup to iCloud directly from the device before you start... Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > iCloud Backup > On. It won't save any media but it would preserve the general account settings and documents in case anything goes wrong while you are trying to extract your other data.
    When you get it all fixed, make a backup!

  • How do I save more than one username and password for one website?

    First, let me say that I'm extremely irritated that I just spent 15 minutes writing a very detailed question and researching my OS, browser version, etc. only to have it all erased because I didn't "verify" my e-mail before I started typing my question. Firefox: please fix your sign-up and question posting process so this doesn't happen. It should retain your info for a smooth process after you verify. What a waste of time and effort when I'm already frustrated.
    ACTUAL QUESTION: I manage two online calendars under one root URL (www.samplepage.com/calendar1 and www.samplepage.com/calendar2). My e-mail address is the user ID for both accounts but the passwords are different.
    FF used to associate your username and password with the ENTIRE URL but now it only associates with the root (www.samplepage.com). So, for me, it will only remember one password.
    How can I get it to remember BOTH passwords?
    Thanks!

    That is not possible with the Firefox password manager. You can only save a user name and its password once for a specific domain, so if the name is the same then it doesn't work.

  • How can I save a website as a favorite place under more than one file folder? I think I used to have this ability, now it'll only save it in one place.

    What this does for me is allow me to find rarely accessed websites by looking under different kinds of categories of favorite places. If I'm restricted to only one location for the data it makes it harder to find.
    Thanks in advance for any help you can give. It may still be possible to do this, and I just don't know how. In the past, if I created a new file folder and saved a webpage to the new folder, it would persist even after I saved it a 2nd time to a different folder. Now, if I save it to a 2nd folder, it will disappear from the 1st folder.

    You can do a Copy & Paste in the Bookmarks Manager (Shift+Ctrl+B) to create a copy of a bookmark.<br />
    You can also drag the website's favicon on the left end of the location bar to a folder into the Bookmarks menu drop down list or to a folder in the Bookmarks side bar (Ctrl+B) or onto the Bookmarks Toolbar.<br />
    In the side bar you need to click to the left of the icon to prevent Firefox from opening the bookmark.

  • Can I have paid apps on more than one device and how?

    This must have been answered before, but I wasn't sure how to search for it, so apologies in advance...
    I have several Apple devices and I want to put the paid apps I have on one device on another as well. I would have assumed this was possible - perhaps via iTunes, but I can't see how to do it.
    It doesn't seem to make any difference whether I restore from a previous device's backup (to the new device), or create a 'new' device.
    So, for example, I have bought Air Display for my iPad mk1 and I now want to put it on my iPad mini as well. (I don't want to use them simultaneously.) The iPad mini is set up as a new device, so hasn't been restored from the iPad mk1's backup.
    As another example, I have an iPhone 5 that I restored from an iPhone 4s backup. Most things were installed, but none of the paid apps came across and they're not listed in my iTunes library.
    Do I have to buy them all again? Or am I doing something wrong? I would have assumed that they would be stored with my account details (all the devices are set up with the same Apple id).
    Many thanks.

    It is possible, I have some of my apps on my iPad and iPhone (and some of them on an old iPod Touch). A backup doesn't contain the apps, just their contents and settings, so unless the actual apps are on your computer's iTunes then restoring to a backup won't copy them onto it.
    You should be able to copy your apps (and other iTunes purchases so that you have copies of them and so that you can sync them either back to the same device if you ever need to restore it, or to other devices that you own) from the device that they are on to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases) and then sync them to the other devices (assuming that you have the relevant iOS version on them and the apps are compatible e.g. some apps are iPad-only, and some require full-phone capabilities so are iPhone-only). Or you can re-download them on your computer's iTunes and sync them or re-download them directly on the device that you want them on.

  • Purchased "Moneypad app" missing in App Store. I've used that app for more than a year and all my financial records are in it. I have the backup but I need the app. How can a purchased app go missing??? Is that even legal??

    I've used "Moneypad" app to record my financial transaction for over a year and I got an update today. After updating all the icons where misplaced and there were a lot of bugs in the app. The update said "Restore original app icon". So I decided to delete it and reinstall the app but now i couldn't find the application in the itunes store both through my Macbook air and my iphone 5. What do I do now?? how can a purchased app go missing? Is it even legal to delete apurchased app from the itunes store?? What happened to my money and the worst part is my records cant be used in anyother application but "Moneypad". There were 2 version of the app in the store. One was free and the other One was paid. The free app is still there but the paid One is gone!! Please respond to this issue as soon as possible! I need it to record my daily transactions or it would mess up my work a lot! Thankyou.

    I did buy it long back! and now,I downloaded the free version and it requires me to buy it again to make it pro. and NO I dont have a copy of the application with me! I juz have the backup of the app data with me! and "
    MoneyPad√ " is the trial version. The original version which was Rs.220 in India when i got it was named "MoneyPad" without the mathematical symbol. Please is there any way i could get that application back?? I purchased the application and i've got all rights to own it! and what do you mean by "App developers can remove their apps from the store at any time"? So Can I upload some stupid app claiming to be something else and costing around $100 and delete it as soon as someone purchases it??

  • How do I save more than one username and password for a site?

    <blockquote>Locking duplicate thread.<br>

    I manage two online calendar accounts under one website (both account admin centers actually have their own URL but the main root of the webpage is the same). My "user ID" (which is my e-mail address) is the same for both accounts.
    Firefox used to associate the user ID and password with the ENTIRE URL so, in effect, it would remember them for BOTH admin centers. Now it seems to only remember the main root webpage (www.samplepage.com instead of www.samplepage.com/adminloginA).
    How do I get it to remember the ENTIRE URL instead of just the root? I need it to remember both usernames and passwords.
