I do not want the Firefox update page to load. I want only the Home page to load.

When i first access the internet through Firefox, I get both the Firefox update page and my
requested Home page. I am unable to only get the Homepage even though this is the
setting in my control panel.
Basically i am getting two tabs at startup and only want the one.

  • Firefox update page keeps opening in a new tab every time I open Firefox. How do I stop this?

    Every time I open up Firefox, the update checking window opens first, then I get 2 tabs that open. One is my home page, the other is the page that opens after a new version of Firefox is installed. How can I get the Firefox update page to stop opening? I had the same thing happen with the "Download Helper" add-on. The only way I could get it to stop was to disable it. I am running windows 7 and Firefox 9.

    You can't gift it, gifting can only be done from within the store, not from within your library.
    Puchases are considered final but you can try the 'report a problem' link to contact iTunes Support and see if they will refund or credit you : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • I can not access the home page

    I have installed Oracle Portal 3.0 EA on a Windows NT 4.0 Workstation
    running Oracle 8.1.6.
    And now I can not access the home page and login from a local browser installed on the server by typing http://<hostname>/pls/portal30/portal30.home.
    Apache is still working.

    Jan-Peter,
    Obviously the browser recognizes the servername:port because your sample works. It must have a problem with the pls or DAD.
    Can you access:
    http://servername:80/pls/admin_/gateway.htm
    If yes,
    Then check to make sure you are calling the correct DAD and they are setup. You can do this through the gateway.htm page.
    If no,
    Then your 9iAS did not setup mod_plsql correctly. Check oracle_admin to see if it points to plsql.conf

    the screen on my iPhone is frozen and I can access apps through Siri. The touch screen works within the apps but not in the home screen. What do I do?

    Have you tried a reset which is similar to a computer restart and is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release?

    Hi iPheariPhoPad,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like there’s an issue with Settings, the Notes app entry isn’t showing up as expected. Take a look at the article linked below and try restarting your iPhone 3GS.
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    If that doesn’t do it, try restoring your iPhone as shown in this article:
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support
    Take care,
    -Jason

    Connect the charger and let it charge for at least 30 minutes before you try to turn it on. Then let it charge  untill full. The iPhone (or iPad) need at least a little charge before you can turn it on.

  • Hi! I have a 8gb iPod touch 5.0.1 and my app store and my contacts calculator , mails are not on the home secreen and I go to restrictions and they said that that things are on .

    Hi!
    I have a iPod touch 8GB 5.0.1 and my contacs my app store Are not on the home screen and my contacs .
    So I go to restrictions and they say that they are ON  so I reboot my iPod and he still the same thing.
    So I restore my iPod from iTunes and iTunes say that this iPod cannot be restore and I do that on a MacBook pro and I do the second time on windows computer.
    So I need help , I don't know what to do .
    Thank you .

    The app, if not restricted, may be hidden in your folders.  If you go to settings, general, reset, reset home screen layout, you can rule that out.
    Does your restore give you a specific error?  If so, see http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694 and http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275
    You can also restore from your iPod, by going to settings, general, reset, reset all content and settings, but make sure that you have created a backup beforehand.

  • My ipad keeps restarting over and over again and even it does not appear the home screen

    my ipad keeps restarting over and over again and even it does not appear the home screen...............................how can i fix this.................
    `

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

  • Everytime i start firefox it takes me to the "firefox updated" page in a new tab everytime,how do i stop this? its never done it before in 2 years

    as the header says
    firefox updates and takes me to the update landing page everytime i start firefox, i have tried 5.0 and 3.6 it does it with both and never happened before i installed 5.0 for the 1st time
    its getting annoying

    Is your homepage getting changed to the same URL every time you open Firefox?
    What's happening sure sounds like you picked up some Malware, , that you may not be aware of, along with a homepage changer of some type.
    You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:
    * [http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/default.aspx Microsoft Safety Scanner]

    * [http://www.eset.com/us/online-scanner/ ESET Online Scanner]
    [http://windows.microsoft.com/MSE Microsoft Security Essentials] is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.

  • Firefox Updated page will NOT go away!

    Start page is set to blank. Home page is set to nothing. Yet every time I open Firefox I get the stupid "Hooray your Firefox is up to date!" message as well as the header that asks if I'll help Mozilla improve by monitoring my browsing, to which I ALWAYS click no. I've cleared the cache a zillion times, and this is just annoying! Is anybody else experiencing this or have any ideas?
