I do not want firefox to try and recover any web pages on start up. Ho do I do this?

Regardless of whether I manually shut down my web pages, Firefox always seems to be trying to recover pages at start up. When I shut down I never want Firefox to recover previous web pages on start up. Just my home page.

A likely cause is that you are first closing all Firefox windows and then close the Firefox application.
Some have reported that closing Firefox (Firefox > Quit) while the browser window is still open works for them.
*Bug 845681 - Closing all windows and quitting Firefox afterwards leads to about:sessionrestore to be shown on next startup

ps. IE works as usual

Problem solved from prior post. Firefox had become blocked somehow by McAfee firewall. Set to full access. Now works perfectly.

Firefox closes abruptly as soon as I try to load any web page on a limited user windows profile, but works fine on my admin profile.

I just upgraded to FF 5.0, and now I cannot use it on my kids' windows profile (closes, not crashes on loading any page), or my wife's profile (won't open at all). On my profile (an admin profile on this computer) it works just fine.
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit

I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

I have a new computer. I can not get Firefox to auto-login to any sites. How can I make it so that this new computer functions like every other one I've seen...e.g., it actually remembers what I ask it to?

Cookies are enabled. Sites are checked "remember password" and "automatically log me in." I have checked "yes" to "Do you want firefox to remember the password for this site?" Some sites do auto-fill my username or password, but I still have to go through the process of approving, checking, and clicking, every single time. One example is yahoo mail...but it happens everywhere. It's like every time I access Firefox, it doesn't remember anything.

* Websites remembering you and automatically log you in is stored in a cookie.
* You must allow that cookie (Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: Exceptions), especially for secure websites and if you let cookies expire when Firefox closes
* Make sure that you do not use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the "Cookies" and the "Site Preferences"

When I try and print a web page in the print screen ALL the Print Frame options are greyed out. It won't let me print a page as I see it. I need to pring a page as is. How do I do it in the new 8.0??

I go to print and try to select the radio button to print all frames, but It's not working

The '''Print Frames''' options are greyed out unless the web page is made with Frames. I-Frames don't work the same.
Check out this '''''frames test page''''' - http://www.draac.com/framestest.html <br />Is the '''Print Frames''' part of the print dialog box active?
As far as printing a page as you see it, many web pages use '''print.css''' files for print-media. The print.css specifies exactly what is to be sent to the printer and it can control the formatting of the printed page.

Why Doesn't Firefox 34.0.5 Render Any Web Pages - All Are Blank White

I am using Firefox on on W7-SP1 computer and three W8.1 computers
I upgraded to 34.0.5 from 33.1.1. None of the pages on any website render. All pages are just blank white. The Yoono sidebard works. Popup message from Firefox shows..
Steps I took to try and solve problem
1. Disabled all extensions - Did not solve problem
2. Did an uninstall and clean install - Did not solve problem
3. Turned off Web Protection in Bitdefender Internet Sececurity 2015 - Did no solve problem
4. Turned off Web Protection in Malwarebytes 2.03 - Did not work
5. Turned off Protection in Malwarebyes Anti-Exploit - Did not work
I am also using Malwarebytes

Hey,
I really hope I can help some of you poor ones who have that problem because I had it, too! Right after upgrading to Version 34.0.5, no webpages displayed any content but a blank. It annoyed me very much, especially since it's hard to get an earlier Firefox version and seemingly impossible to downgrade. What helped me in the end was:
Disabling one of my add-ons, namely "Privacy Defense".
I had to find out what caused the trouble. So I went to reset my Firefox to the original settings, thereby getting rid of all my add-ons. Webpages were working normally as before. I re-downloaded my old add-ons. Everything worked fine. Until I got to "privacy defense" which doesn't even require a restart of Firefox. When I had downloaded it, no webpages would look any other than blank! So I disabled it - and everything was back to normal. So:
Tools > add-ons > guilty add-on (for me Privacy Defense) > disable it.
It seems as though certain add-ons aren't compatible with this new Firefox version. So check them. (Also, my contrast settings, colours and fonts I had chosen weren't the problem.)
Really hope this helps someone.
Good luck!

When I try to access a web page or link from a web page I receive an error message like "Server not found" or "Unable to connect." After repeated "try again" attempts the page will load, but when I click on a button or link, the same thing repeats. Why?

No preview or preview button appears when I try to print a web page, as it does for any other file. How can I arrange for preview?

n the dialog box that appears when I try to print any web page, there is neither a preview nor a preview button, (although there is a preview if I open the web item as a pdf file, but that takes an extra step. A preview appears when I print any other file on my computer (a Macbook). Is there a setup procedure that will give a preview when printing one or several web pages?

The Print button in the "3-bar" Firefox menu button drop-down list opens the Print Preview window.
You can click the Print button in the Print Preview window or use the Print item in the File menu (File > Print) or use the Ctrl+P shortcut to have access to the print selection item and other print setup options.
* Tap the Alt key or press F10 to show the Menu bar.
* Use "View > Toolbars > [X] Menu Bar" to have the menu bar visible permanently.

I am getting a 404 not found message on my mac before the web page closes down

I am getting a 404 not found message on my mac before the web page closes down. How do I fix this?

Is it an internal or external web page? Does this occur on all web pages? If not, post the URL of one that 404s.

I am considering switching from MIE to Firefox. But I need to use an outdated version (7.3.1) of QuickTime, and I do not want Firefox to update it. If I installed Firefox, how would I prevent this?

Firefox doesn't update plugins like that. The worst you might see is a "nag" from Firefox after an update, about that plugin being outdated; and you can dismiss that "nag" by just closing it.

hello sofg777, when you're at a page you want to print try to press ctrl+P and select a different printer than the Microsoft XPS Document Writer which seems to be set as your default printer in firefox at the moment.

Every time i try to start firefox or try and do anything within it I get "TypeError: gILTFFObj is undefined" Please help as this only happened since the new upgrade was offered

We were offered the new upgrade, so went ahead and completed the upgrade. Since then every time we open firefox, or try and do anything with it after it's open, such as clicking links or trying to browse the following message comes up: "TypeError: gILTFFObj is undefined" Don't know what this is but it is very annoying.

Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 20.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you will lose all personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
*(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

Firefox freezes if I try to initiate a remote console session with the Netware 6.5 server I am connected to. I can force quit, re-initiate Firefox, re-authenticate and I'm able to successfully start a remote console session and acquire the server console.

Hi Mac Attack,
My computer will not disconnect from the internet. It seems to find a clone router and continues even when I shut down and unplug my my own home iy
Your main question was 'chopped' in the title. Please reply in the body of a reply box with the full question and anything you have tried. And no, the long report was not helpful .
If the same website is opening each time you launch a browser (Safari?) hold down the shift key as you launch to prevent previous pages from opening.
Have a look at your settings in Safari > Preferences. Especially General and Privacy.
Reset Safari to remove cookies and other stored data.
System Preferences > General
Have a look at your settings in System Preferences > Security & Privacy.
Call back with more questions.
