I have set my home page several times, but it won't stick.

When I open Foxfire, a general page opens, instead of the page that I set.

All media and apps should be in iTunes on the computer. Simply select the content desired to sync to the device and sync it.
FYI, backups have never included media or apps.

We are just about to purchase an iphoto book but received the message that we had one or more empty photo frames. We have gone over each page several times and found no empty frames. We cannot purchase the book because we cannot get beyond this message.

I tried setting my home page many times and it does not carry at restart. I followed the intructions. My home page keeps going back to some old setting.

I set my home page on multiple (5 or 6) web sites. As long as I do not close the session I do not lose it. But if I close the session and start over, my settings are gone and my home page is set to some bad URL I acquired during installation.

Do you have the FastStart extension?

When I try to set my homepage to a specific website, firefox will not store permanently. I have to reset home page each time I open firefox. are there additional instructions in help to address this?

Each time I open firefox, it doesn't open to my previously set website (Yahoo). I have to reset the homepage each time I open firefox despite following the help menu method. I'm not able to locate a possible cause/solution on the help menu. pls advise

Please do the following. 
* In the location bar, type '''about:config''' and hit Enter. 
* In the filter at the top, type: '''keyword.URL''' 
* Double click it and remove whatever's in there and replace it with http://search.yahoo.com/search?p= 
The URL to add in "keyword.URL" becomes a link in this post, so right click it and choose "''Copy Link Location''" to copy it to the Windows clipboard. Then hit CTRL+V to paste it. Saves you having to type the whole thing.
'''To reset your home page, do the following'''. 
* Go to the site you want to set as your homepage. 
* Click the orange Firefox button and go to '''Options '''| '''Options '''| '''General'''. 
* Make sure it says "''Show My Homepage''" in the first dropdown menu. 
* Click the button called "'''Use Current Pages'''" to set the homepage to the one you have on the screen. 
After you complete the above steps, install this add-on to prevent another search engine from modifying your preferences: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/browserprotect/

I have set my home page but the "drag this icon to the home symbol to set your home page" box will NOT go away each time I use Firefox. How can I get rid of it now that I've done what it wanted?

This little box near the top right started showing up recently, and after a few times I realized I did want to change my home page to my most frequently used web page, so I followed the instructions and it works, but that @W#$ popup box continues to show up each and every time I start, every time I log out of the web page, and so on. Since I've fulfilled its requirements, I'd like to get it to STAY GONE and not get in my way.

I have set my home page to aol and when I startup tomtom comes on first. If I press the house aol will come on.

I have set my homepage a number of times to aol. When I start the computer and press the firefox icon tomtom's website comes on. I can press the house icon and go to aol.
This problem after I installed tomtom home2 software on the computer.

Being redirected in a browser is not your laptop's doing. If the browser you are referring to is Internet Explorer then resetting it should do the trick.

After installing the safari update for windows, outlook is now not opening email hyperlinks. I have set safari to be my default browser but outlook won't open it when I click a link. I get the following message: "This operation has been canceled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator." Please help.

Hi mcclausky, you may need to manually remove a policy setting from the registry. You also should scan for malware that might have created this problem.
This article lists scanning and cleaning tools other Firefox users have found helpful: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]].
To check your Windows registry for policy settings that might affect Firefox or other programs, I suggest consulting a Windows forum or Microsoft's forums. For example:

i can not get to options window-content panel-where i was told i can drag it to my desk top if you have a link or any way other then that i can get this resolved. on ie all i had to do was right click my mouse.please help thank you sal

If you are talking about moving the page to your desktop, then all you have to do is drag the favicon to the left of the address bar to the Desktop.
If you are talking about something else, please explain a little clearer.
Thank you! :)

Why do i have to reload the page several times before all the content appears?

I need to hit the reload button at least once sometimes twice before a web page appears correctly or to get all of the pages content. This problem just started. I also can no longer get the Veetle movie player to work it wont download the channel anymore. I think this is the same problem and this also just started to happen.

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.
