I have just donwloaded Firefox 5 to my Sony Vaio laptop and it keeps opening three tabs, I uninstalled it and reinstalled it and it happened again, how do I remove the two surplus tabs?

I finally managed to fix this problem! You have to go into your program files and you will see another bearshare folder, this has two add on components for firefox. Go into the folders, and find the uninstall program tools.
One of them will uninstall here. There is a program called media mrg or something along those lines in your add ons for firefox. You need to delete this, and it should stop bearshare popping up in the tabs. Then just to make sure, I went back and deleted the bearshare folder. You know you have disabled all the right components when it will finally let you delete the folder.

Have you tried to run firefox '''as an administrator''' ?

How can I REMOVE the Yahoo! tab from the menu bar? Each time I open Firefox, I get the gialogue box asking if I want to make yahoo the default and each time I respond no and check the do not ask this question again.

I am tempted to remove Ff4 and revert to 3.X if I cannot fix this problem. The question (statement) has all pertinent details already included

'''Hello peacefultrev,'''
I believe from your question you wish to remove the window title-bar, while keeping the menu bar available.
I have two solutions for you to try. One requires no plugin and the other requires the installation of a plugin.
'''No plugin option:'''
This option hides the the window title while also removing the menu bar. The menu bar can then be reactivated and viewed simply by pressing "Alt" which shows the menu bar until you click away from it. To do this:
# Right click on the tab bar and disable "Menu Bar".
# Whenever you which to use the menu bar, tap "Alt" on your keyboard.
# When you click away from the menu bar the windows title will disappear until you tap "Alt" again.
'''Plugin Option:'''
You can download this plugin called [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/hide-caption-titlebar-plus-sma/ Hide Caption Titlebar Plus] which can be customized to suit your needs. I cannot provide support on this plugin as I have not used it myself.
I hope one of these solutions will suit your needs.

Uninstall the Inbox Toolbar, following steps here:
http://toolbar.inbox.com/faq.aspx?faqid=2876&faqmod=WST_Install#1
Then retry opening Firefox.
You can also try opening Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] (use Continue in Safe Mode first).
If that works, reopen Firefox Safe Mode, but use the dialog option to '''Restore default search engines''' as shown at https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode#Safe_Mode_window and press the '''Make changes and restart''' button.

Do a clean (re)install:
* Download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
* Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
* Don't remove personal data when uninstalling.
* 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.
You can initially skip the step to create a new profile, that may not necessary for this issue.

I have just downloaded Firefox 4 and my autofill on the google toolbar is not working for any webpages it previously worked with. Is there a way to fix this? Thanks

Question
I have just downloaded Firefox 4 and my autofill on the google toolbar is not working for any webpages it previously worked with. Is there a way to fix this? Thanks

Crap. That's what I was afraid of...Well, since I'm away from home and not near my pc, it sounds like I'm out of luck. The problem is that I need my phone to be at least functional for making and receiving calls. There's an apple store nearby. Perhaps I can go there and have them restore it and at least I'll be able to make and receive calls until I get home and restore from my backup. Does that sound feasible, or am I missing something?
P.s. I tried to click "correct answer" and accidentally hit "helpful". Sorry about that...

I just installed Firefox 5. How can I remove the Bing search from the address bar? I don't want to see Bing at all.

I just installed Firefox 5. How can I remove the Bing search from the address bar. I don't want to see Bing at all. I tired the Firefox options, right-clicking on the search field and the toolbar selection drop-down but could not find a way to get rid of that unwanted search window.

*'''at the bottom of firefox''' there is a weird looking greenish circle with a lightning bolt in it*
1. click it and hover over to '''PREFERENCES'''.
2. click the second circle that say's '''BING.'''
3. '''Un-check''' both boxes.
4. you're done :)
Note: it's not going to show the google symbol encrypt when you open a new tab it's just going to automatically use google as a search engine.

Dozens of open tabs lost! Synced them, reinstalled Windows and Firefox, set up Sync, looked up "tabs on other devices" in history - Only a third or so listed.

Dozens of open tabs lost! Synced them, reinstalled Windows and Firefox, set up Sync, looked up "tabs on other devices" in history -> Only a third or so listed.
Usually, when I reinstall Windows, I manually backup my Firefox bookmarks and open tabs, but because Sync has worked perfectly for me in the past, I didn't do it this time. I backed up all my other files and settings and whatnot from the rest of my system, then in Firefox I hit the Sync button (put in on the GUI so I see if it's syncing or done) for the last time, waited until the green rotating dot was gone, closed Firefox, shut down the system, formatted the drive and reinstalled Windows and Firefox. After setting up Sync I waited a while to make sure everything is on my system.
Then I wanted to have all the tabs and windows open as I had on the old system, so I went to the history and "tabs on other devices". I could already see from the small size of the list, that tabs were missing. I went through all of them, opened them and sorted them into windows.
-> Maybe about two thirds of the tabs I had open on my old system are gone!
Not just new tabs that might not have been synced (although the button showed sync was complete), but also old tabs (from weeks ago) that must have been synced before. Actually maybe especially or even only the old ones are lost. And the lost tabs are not just from one of the open windows, but from several.
What can I do to recover my lost tabs?
They contain important websites that I didn't bookmark yet, articles that I wanted to read, windows with dozens of tabs on a topic that I did some research for and stuff like that.
What does the green circle mean? Does it indicate that the sync is complete (to the Firefox servers) or just that the changes have been saved locally and set up for some next scheduled sync with the Firefox servers?
Further info:
I always run the newest stable release of Firefox (v19 on both systems). Old system was Windows 8 Enterprise Evaluation, new system is Windows 8 Pro. My used Sync quota is about 10 MB. I had 4 Firefox windows open with different amount of tabs in each of them, from 10 to maybe 80 with an overall amount of 150-200. Most of them weren't loaded. Firefox start is set to "load last session" and tabs are set to "load when selected". Memory usage 500 MB - 1 GB.

I have most of the items bookmarked. Having 200 - 300 tabs open saves time, since I don't have to go to the bookmarks, if the tabs are already open. One problem has been crashes, but as long as I can restore a previous session, I can still get to the data. I had quite a few tabs open when I was planning to purchase a new computer. I also follow the stock market, and the weather. I was also looking at various VIrtual Private Networking (VPN) sites. At one time, I probably had 20 - 50 tabs open, just for those. I did bookmark a few, but unfortunately lost the VPN tabs, when Firefox crashed. Even if I don`t go to a particular group of tabs very often, leaving it open is faster, especially since I will know where they are. I often put the computer in standby mode, rather than shutting it off, especially if I will remain in the same location.

Have just down loaded Yosemite over Mountain Lion, Indesign CS5 does not work ( Am dependant on it) although Bridge , Light Room and Elements operate OK How do I solve this rapidly. Can any one help on this issue. Thanks

Sorry to say it, but I think you can see from Bob's response that there's no way to solve this rapidly.
Did you take an image of your Mountain Lion install before upgrading to Yosemite? Roll back to that. If you're not in the habit of taking a snapshot of your system before performing operating system upgrades - get in that habit. If you are dependent on anything at all on hour computer, having a reliable backup method in place is essential. If you don't have a Time Capsule, or some other way to run Time Machine onto a disk that's not in your computer, go set that up yesterday.
If you can't just remove Yosemite and roll back to Mountain Lion for whatever reason, you can partition your drive so that you can install both Yosemite and Mountain Lion on the same drive, and then boot into Mountain Lion when you need to work in CS5. Or you can take your Mountain Lion disc (I assume you have one, no?) and then use it to create a virtual machine in something like VirtualBox to run Mountain Lion from inside Yosemite.

Have Firefox home page set for Google search, but each following tab opens w/Yahoo search instead. How do I remove the Yahoo and have Google home page on every tab????

As I said above: I Have Firefox browser home page set for Google search, but each following tab (but suddenly now it) opens w/Yahoo search instead. How do I remove the Yahoo search off the added tabs and have Google home page/ blank tab (like it used to be) on every tab????

The new Firefox Start Page - '''about:home''' - isn't the same homepage that was used in earlier versions of Firefox - http://www.google.com/firefox There is no "setting" for the "Search Container" on the about:home "page" - in the Options UI or in about:config .
Set that old "Mozilla Firefox Start Page" as your "homepage". <br />
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
Or open your Profile folder and delete the '''webappsstore.sqlite''' file and hope the "Search Container" on the about:home "page" returns to Google. When it '''''is''''' Google, the Google logo appears to the left of the "Search Container"; when the search engine there has been changed to something else, there is no logo to the left of the "Search Container" - AFAIK.

try a reset hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
