  • How do I set a home page in Firefox for Android

    I want iGoogle to open when I load Firefox.

    Hi DOUGM500049, <br>
    I think this will be a change on Firefox for Android 20. Currently, you can make a bookmark to your preferred page and open Firefox with it.
    <br>
    For more info on how to do this, check "How do I add a bookmark to my device's home screen?" section in this article: <br> [[Use bookmarks on Firefox for Android to keep track of your favorite websites]]

  • How do I set the Home Page for a newly open tab using the File Tab Menu??

    When I open a new tab, is there a way to set the home page the new tab will use when it is opened, or will new tabs always be opened as blank pages?

    I have new windows opening when I click on a link. Or when I click on the FF-Icon. New windows are the default setting.
    When a new window opens, I get a Google home page and can instantly type in a search phrase.
    With the above in mind, sometimes I want to keep search classes in the same window. In a sense I'm using the Window with no tabs, to generate a tab by using the File Tab option.
    When a Tab is selected where new windows will launch a new page, and not a new tab, the process of forcing a new tab onto the window will produce a tab page that is Blank, and the new tab label description displayed in the tab area shows the words "New Tab". That tab's URL address bar is blank. Zip - nothing displayed.
    When a blank page tab appears, I click on the HOME button you helped me remodel, and the "New Tab" description in the tab label area changes from "New Tab" to "Google".
    My question was to ask, if there was a way I could do something to make FF4 do that Home page assignment on its own. In the early FF days I found you could sometimes go into the bowels of FF, find some form of INI or SETTINGS type file, look for a Keyword reference that would tell FF to do something different, and Viola, emotional issue resolved. In this case, I'm trying to "Gild the Lilly" by asking if you, or someone else might have a rabbit they can pull out of their hat, just like you did when you helped me move my Home button, and have that rabbit show me how to do something that default FF-Options section doesn't support.
    Did I do a better job of explaining the issue this time?
    Thanks again for the response.

  • How do I set the home page for a new tab?

    How do I set the web page for when I open a new tab? Whenever I open a new tab it goes to an error site which freezes my firefox browser for a while. How do I change that? I want to open new tabs with google being the home page. I need to set up the homepage for a new tab NOT a new window. Please help! !

    If Google is set as your Homepage in Firefox you can middle-click ''(push down on the mouse wheel)'' to open Google in a new Tab.
    Or, you can add the feature to Firefox where clicking the New Tab button on the Tab Bar opens your Homepage in a new Tab. <br />
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage/
    And if you have a different Homepage set, this extension allows for any page you set in the extension's options to open when you use the new Tab button. <br />

  • How can I set the home page in iPad safari?

    Opening Safari, the screen shows the last page used. Is it possible to set a home page so that, for example, Sfari always opens with the Google search page?

    Safari doesn't have a homepage as such, but you can create a homescreen shortcut for a particular page : go to the page that you want and then tap the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it to the left of the URL address field and you should get an option to 'Add To Home Screen'. You can then just tap shortcut on your homescreen to open Safari on that page (it will still re-open any other tabs that you had open when you closed Safari)

  • How do you get the home page to stay the same when you reload your firefox after changing homepage

    <blockquote>Locking duplicate thread.<br>

    We previously had google as our main home page then tried a page called bearshare. Now we want to change the home page back to google. I have tried numerous times typing in the new home page under tools, options then general tab and when we close firefox and then reopen the page it loads bearshare again so we go back to tools option again and it has automatically changed back to bearshare. We are running windows xp on our system and prefer google but bearshare is annoying as it doesn't find alot of kids games sites that we can get through google. Please help what do we do to stop it from changing back all the time?

    Type '''''about:config''''' in a new window address bar. Click ''''''I will be careful'''''.
    You will see all kinds of information that Firefox uses so it knows how to
    work. There is a search bar at the top of the page. Type ''''''browser.startup.homepage'''''' and check its entry. You can change it to what
    ever web page you want, or you can enter; ''''''about:blank'''''' for a blank page.
    I use the Firefox home page; '''''about:home'''''. After, go back to the search bar
    and type; '''''browser.newtab.url'''''. This is what a new tab page will display.
    Do the same thing here. You can have the same for both or have each open to
    different pages.

  • How do you set a home page for firefox for android phone

    The awesome bar is ok, and the bookmarks too... but they don't fill the need for a custom start page. We have it in Firefox Desktop and in all other browsers, it's a basic feature! :-(

  • How do you set the y-intercept to 0 for a trendline? HELP PLEASE!!

    So I created my xy scatter plot and have the trendline and I need to know how to set the y-intercept as zero to get the slope to be the average solution of my equation but I don't know how to do this. Help PlEASE!

    If you want the slope with the Y intercept forced to zero, use the LINEST function. It has a parameter that allows you to force the Y intercept to zero. If you want this trendline to be on your chart, you will have to create a couple of X-Y pairs using the slope then plot them as another data set on your chart rather than using the built-in trendline.

  • How do you change the home page of a tab?

    My home page is google.nl, but if I open a tab, I don't see google.nl.

    Your new tab can be changed to a different page. First, I suggest copying the URL of the page you want from the address bar, then:
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the filter box, type '''newtab''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Double-click the '''browser.newtab.url''' preference and enter the desired value:
    ''(i) Page thumbnails (default)''
    about:newtab
    ''(ii) Blank tab''
    about:blank
    ''(iii) Built-in Firefox home page''
    about:home
    ''(iv) Any other page''
    full URL to the page (paste what you copied)
    Press Ctrl+t to open a new tab and verify that it worked. Fixed?

  • How do I set a "normal" home-page in Firefox for Android? (instead of the "awesome screen")

    How do I set a "normal" home-page in Firefox for Android? I don't want the homepage to be the "awesome screen" (which I personally don't find to be very awesome - way too much going on in one page for a small smartphone screen).
    I just want a regular home page that I can set myself. For example, in Firefox for my personal laptop, I've set my homepage Google.com. In Firefox on my work computer, I've set my homepage to our company intranet login. I really prefer and need this flexibility in setting my home page.
    In Firefox for Android, if I go into Settings/Customize/Homepage , the only options I see for changing the home page is to de-select certain items on the "awesome screen". There's no option to set a URL address for a normal homepage. If I de-select/hide all the items on the awesome screen, I simply get a blank home page (no web page, just a prompt telling me to enter a URL address).
    The other major browsers for Android allow me to set a "normal" home page. Firefox is my favorite browser for my laptop. I wish I could get it to work normally for Android. :( :( :(

    hello betsy, at the moment such a feature is not implemented in firefox, but as a workaround you can add a bookmark to a site to the homescreen of your phone, which should have the same effect: [[Use bookmarks on Firefox for Android to keep track of your favorite websites]]

  • 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.

Yesterday I installed itunes for the first time on my new netbook which is a 64 bit (windows 7) system and it works just fine. i have three other laptops (all window 7) in my household that are all 64 bit operating systems and ALL have updated to 10.5 and THEY ALL work fine. this is FOUR 64 bit systems ALL updated w/10.5 that work and ONE that is a 32 bit that will not. Can't get any help from apple. their suppot *****! I want to get someone on the **** phone or a live chat but cant. *** APPLE????? please let mw know if you find SOMETHING i can try next. I'm out of ideas and patience!

  • Start page lacks menu items - unlike "How to set the home page" view

    I have just downloaded the beta of Firefox 4 and am attempting to reproduce opening home page from previous version. Directions on accomplishing this (loading the NY Times front page) depend on a menu bar with "File, Edit, View, History" etc. There are not visible. They are shown in the directions on Firefox Help but not on my computer. How to do this??

    Click the Firefox button, then click Options. This will open the options dialog that the [[How to set the home page]] article refers to.
    When viewing the support articles, in the right-hand column there is a section titled "Help With:", make sure it is set to Windows and Firefox 4 to get help relevant to the version you are using. In some articles you get different content when you select Firefox 4.

  • Howcan I set the home page for new tabs?

    When I open a new tab, it opens up as a blank page. How do I setup Firefox so that the new tabs open in my home page?
    ''locked by a moderator due to age and that Firefox 13 has a new feature for a new tab''

    Thanks, but the problem I'm trying to solve is to get my home page to open automatically when I am already in Firefox and click on the new tab "+" sign to the right of my most recent tab. I have not found a solution to this in the link "How to set the home page" nor in the various help pages on new tabs.

  • How do you set the font color for a specific entire row inside a JTable?

    How do you set the font color for a specific entire row inside a JTable?
    I want to change the font color for only a couple of rows inside a JTable.
    I've seen some ways to possibly do this with an individual cell.
    Clarification on changing the font color in an individual cell would be helpful too if
    there is no easy way to do this for a row.

    hai,
    Try out with this piece of code.Create your table and assign the renderer to each column in the table.
    CellColorRenderer m_CellColorRenderer = new CellColorRenderer();
    for(int i=0;i<your_JTable.getColumnCount();i++)
    your_JTable.getColumnModel().getColumn(i).setCellRenderer(m_CellColorRenderer);
    class CellColorRenderer extends JLabel implements TableCellRenderer
    CellColorRenderer()     
    setOpaque(true);     
    setHorizontalAlignment(LEFT);
    setVerticalAlignment(CENTER);
    setBackground(Color.white);
    setForeground(Color.black);
    protected void setValue(Object value)
         setText((value == null) ? "" : value.toString());
    public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable table,Object value,boolean isSelected, boolean hasFocus, int row,int column)
         if(isSelected == true)
              setForeground(Color.red);
         else
              setForeground(Color.black);
         setValue(value);
         return this;
