I WANT TO PREVENT CERTAIN SITE FROM AUTOMATICALLY OPENING
Certain web site and pop-up windows keep opening: the web site open on a new page. Te do this without my request or consent. How can I stop them doing this - I know the web sites' addresses?
When does this happen?
You can check for recently installed suspicious or unknown extensions.

How can I prevent my emails from automatically opening
When I open email, it automatically has the emails open when I click on them. How can I just select certain ones without it opening and delete them?
I care that it automatically opens. I find it really annoying that whatever message is at the top of my inbox, (or under my cursor) mail opens it, whether I have read it or not. If I want to keep track of messages I have opened and read, I have to select and mark that message as unread every time I open mail, if I don't want to read it at that time. I can't find a fix and it drives me nuts.

Intermittent "Firefox prevented this site from automatically reloading"
My copy of Firefox 3.6.3 started about a week ago giving me automatic reloading error messages. I have checked all of the settings and there should be nothing in the settings causing this. It also does not happen on all sites or even the same site all of the time. Sometimes Firefox will give the error message and then reload the site anyway with clicking on allow.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

Opera/9.80 (Windows NT 6.1; U; en) Presto/2.5.24 Version/10.53Hi, It's the noscript .81 update that has that added new protection. It also will prompt if site is trying to redirect.
Here's the link to changes in 1.9.9.81:

How do I prevent Photos.app from automatically opening when I connect a camera
I don't use Photos, except for a very small exception. I use Lightroom. I don't want Photos.app to open every time I plug in a device like my iphone or camera.
In iPhoto, it was easy to opt out of this feature. I can find no such option with Photos.app.
any solutions?Go to the System/Keyboard/Keyboard preference pane and check the checkbox circled below:
Now go to this menu
select Show Keyboard Viewer to get this:

In this particular case, I was on a page that offered group discounts ("deals") that can be purchased for a limited time. To make the purchase, I needed to click onto the link with the name of the deal being offered. However, upon clicking on that link, I received the message from Firefox that it was preventing the page from automatically directing to another page i.e. the page that would have allowed me to make my purchase. Please answer quickly since the deal I want to purchase expires in three hours!

I constantly have the following in a bar at the top of the CNN page:
"Firefox prevented this page from automatically reloading". Ii is accompanied by an "Allow" button. How do I get rid of that. I also have on every site randomly highlighted words in green that, when moused-over, has a little pop-up with a marketing ad.See:

When loading a page using Firefox, at the top of the page, I get a mesage telling me "Firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page - Allow?" This happens almost every time I begin a new page and Firefox will not allow the page to continue uploading. I have to tell it to allow every time, even on pages I've 'allowed' in the past.
The Redirection option is an Accessibility feature for people with Disabilities so that they will know when a page is going to be reloaded. It is not a Security feature.
IF you still want it, click '''Firefox''' button and click '''Options''' -> Advanced -> General -> place Checkmark on '''Warn me when websites try to redirect or reload the page'''
-> Click OK on Options window -> Restart Firefox -
When I log into my bank or credit cards websites I get a message that says "Fire Fox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page." It says "Allow" or an X. Sometimes I can click Allow and it goes but then other times if I click Allow on it kicks me out. If I click "X" it goes but I have to click X every page. How can i stop this?

When I am on some sites Firefox gives me the message Firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page? and then I have to click Allow. This happens on every single page on certain sites. How can I make this stop all together?

Msg: Firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page. When I click on "Allow", The 2nd tab closes with no error msg This was Home Depot redirecting to CitiGroup.
When I unchecked the Advance/General/Accessibility option to be notified of a "redirect" then things worked.
Why did clicking on "Allow" not work?
I posted step by step detail in the Trouble Shooting box below.Thank you for your answer. It does stop the redirection notices, but now I have no idea if potentially unsafe sites are redirecting me. I cannot figure out why it has only recently started to happen on my home page though, when nothing has changed on there and I've had it set to show redirections, ever since I set up Firefox.
I guess I'll just have to make the decision as to whether I want to risk redirections or put up with the semi permanent notice.
Thanks again mha007 -
I am constantly being shown this message: "Firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page." The result is that I am often looking at a blank screen with an option to click on "Allow." But sometimes the message comes up and I am on the page I want to be on anyway. I don't understand this and don't know how to change this setting, if indeed I have set up Firefox this way. Help?
That message is a result of your settings
*''Firefox button/File > Options > Advanced > General >'' un-check "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page" to no longer see that message

More often than not, I get the message "Firefox prevented this page from automatically reloading". I click ALLOW and it comes back. I click the X and it goes away and allows the page to reload.
It occurs on my homepage (MSNBC) and a few -- but not all -- of my bookmarked pages.
At times, the message DOES NOT appear but I don't know what I've done to change anything to have it not appear. A couple of days later, the message is back upon loading my homepage.
This is especially annoying when trying to get into my banking website after attempting to log in...sometimes, it doesn't work and other times, after 3 or 4 refreshes, it loads.
Any suggested solutions will be appreciated.See:

HOW DO YOU TURN OFF "FIREFOX PREVENTED THIS PAGE FROM AUTOMATICALLY RELOADING". I did perform the "see Advanced - General - Accessibility. It worked for me and my "user" site (don't know how to say my site) and still having problems with my wife's. I have gone to OPTIONS → GONE TO → ADVANCE and CLICKED THE LINE → ""Warn me when websites try to redirect or reload the page…""
This did not rememdy the problem. I did try to get on the other site suggested
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Accessibility.blockautorefresh
but got a 404 error...
I have googled the "ff prevented...." and after a number of hours searching I still have not found a fix...
REALLY HOPE SOMEONE CAN HELP ME....
JMYou should still disable this setting:
*Firefox > Options/Preferences > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"
The setting in "Options > Advanced > General" is meant as an accessibility feature, as you can see by the label of that section, so that people with disabilities or people who use screen readers do not get confused and is not meant as a safety protection to stop redirecting.
What is the value of the <b>accessibility.blockautorefresh</b> pref on the <b>about:config</b> page?
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/accessibility.blockautorefresh
If you have problems with preferences, see:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
*Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window
