I get two tabs with my identical home page every time I open Firefox. How do I "unpin" one of them so that only one tab is populated when I open Firefox?

When I installed Firefox I inadvertently responded "yes" when asked if I wanted to "pin" my home page to the browser. l also designated that page (my Juno page) as my home page. So now whenever I open Firefox, two tabs appear with my identical home page. How do I fix it so that only one tab appears when I open Firefox?

Its not my home page, Like I said, I hae my home page also come up in a different tab (google) I also get the welcome to FF4 on a seperate tab. My home page is set to google. But I dont want the welcome screen to pop up

    Every time Firefox opened

    Firefox can have multiple home pages if you wish. Each home page that will open when starting Firefox is separated by the "|" character.
    See: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
    To have new tabs open a specific web site, add one of the following extensions:

  • Is there any app to quit from application with out pressing home button every time

    is there any app to quit from application with out pressing home button every time?

    Months ago my home button was screwed up, and I was worried. I'd have to wait atleast for a week to get it repaired as I was busy with my exams. So I found a solution. Goto Settings->General->Accessibility.
    Scroll down, and under "Physics & Motor", select "Assistive Touch". Toggle it on, and you get lots of options. You don't need to click the home button all the time. It is a very simple widget like stuff, that stays no matter what app you're using and you can do various functions with it. Initially, it's irritating as you see it everywhere. But it fades itself out and appears when needed. After you get used to it, it's really helpful.

  • New Tabs appear as :Blank, why don't they open in my home page every time?

    I have set my home page to the standard Google Ireland search page and this works fine. But when I open a new tab, it opens as a blank tab every time.
    The TAB section under TOOLS does not allow me specify what I would like a new tab to open as....
    It just opens a blank tab every time.

  • I am unable to set up my new Time Capsule with my BT Home Hub - every time i connect the ethernet cable from Wan port to Home Hub, the internet signal drops

    Hi there -
    I've just purchased a new Time Capsule, and would like to set up a small home network with my Laptop, iMac and wireless printer. I'm following the first steps, but as soon as I connect an ethernet cable between the WAN port of the TC and the ethernet port of the HH, my BT internet connection drops out and I have to restart the HH. Upon which point it drops out again. The airport utility can see my TC, and gets as far as me typing in the new network name and setting up a password, but then it can't quite get through to the next stage. All the time it's just flashing amber.
    Please help!

    Setup the TC in bridge mode before you cannot it to the HH.
    Simply do the setup fully in isolation. And do it by ethernet.
    Setup wireless to create a wireless network.
    You can use either same SSID =Wireless name as the HH .. same security same password.
    Or use a different name and setup.. totally up to you.
    Update the TC and then plug it into the HH by ethernet.

  • How do I stop Firefox automatically opening and forcing me onto a second tab with a Google sign-in every time I open Firefox?

    Every time I open Firefox to search for something - it automatically opens a second tab and forces me to that tab. On the second tab is the Google account login. I now avoid using Firefox if I can because I cannot shut this off.

    Does this also happen in Safe Mode? You can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
    * Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.
    Also, on the General tab in Firefox preferences, what are "When Firefox starts" and "Home Page" set to?

  • Suddenly I have to log in to my home page every time I start firefox.

    when I started firefox my facebook home page used to log in automaticaly, but now I have to log in to facebook. Why was it changed?

    It sounds as though Firefox is not successfully saving your Facebook cookie between sessions. It's also possible that some security software on your computer is zapping your cookie.
    For more information on how to adjust your cookie settings to allow sites to save cookies indefinitely, see this article: [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Enabling%20and%20disabling%20cookies Enabling and disabling cookies | How to | Firefox Help]

  • Upgrade to ver 29.0 keeps loading "Committed to you, your privacy and an open Web" in addition to home page every time Firefox loads.

    Can't find the setting or switch that prevents this additional an unwanted window/tab from opening everytime. Maybe once upon download but it repeats everytime and won't go away.

    hello, this might happen when firefox is not able to properly save preferences in its profile folder. please try this: Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and then click help [[Image:Help-29]] > troubleshooting information > profile folder - "show folder". then a new window will open up. in this window look out for a file named '''user.js''' (it might be used to overwrite your custom settings). in case it is present , delete or rename this file and restart firefox afterwards.
    for more information and other steps please also see: [[How to fix preferences that won't save]]

  • I have a psc 1510. how do i get it to not print a test page every time i turn it on?

    I would like the PSC 1510 to NOT print up a test page automatically every time I turn the printer on. I don't do a great deal of printing, so I don't want to waste paper by having an extra page printed up evry time I want to just print up a couple of pages. Is there a way to disable this test page at startup?
    I am using the PSC 1510 on a Mac, OS X 10.6.8.

  • My Mac Book Pro changes the saved home page each time I start Safari.  I also get new tabs that randomly open asking to clean up my Apple

    You may have installed one or more of the common types of ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it. It's been reported that some variants of the "VSearch" malware block access to the page. If that happens, start in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime, then try again.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
    If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, ask for further instructions.
    Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. It may have come from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
    Malware is also found on websites that traffic in pirated content such as video. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
    In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere  should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
    Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
              Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
    or
              Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
    if it's not already checked.
