I would like my tabs to be saved when I close (not quit) my browser on my mac.
How can I automatically save my tabs when I close (not quit) firefox on my mac? When I close it (by pressing the red x on the top left of my browser, or by doing cmd+w, and reopen it, I don't have my tabs. There is no restore button when my browser opens. It does not automatically restore my old tabs (I've set it to that setting in my preferences "when my browser starts"). I cannot restore my old session through History either (I can by opening closed windows or tabs, I think, but the restore button doesn't work - in any case, I don't want to have to do this. I want it to be automatic). However, if I quit (emphasis) firefox then everything is restored just fine. But how can I do this when I close it!? I don't want to be able to loose all of my information by accidentally closing my browser.
If you keep the Firefox application running and still have the menu bar showing then only Recently Closed Windows/Tabs can bring back tabs from your current session (you didn't end close the session yet).
You would need a session manager extension to handle such a situation.

Just downloaded Firefox 5 and love the App Tabs concept. I right click, Pin as App Tab, then close Firefox. When I re-open it, there aren't any pinned App Tabs.
App (pinned) tabs and Tab Groups (Panorama) are stored as part of the session data in the file sessionstore.js in the Firefox profile folder.

Make sure that you do not use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the "Browsing History" when Firefox is closed because that prevails and prevents Firefox from opening tabs from the previous session.

It is also possible to use:

Tabs not saved when Firefox closes!
Why oh why has Firefox 6.0.2 (on Mac) stopped automatically saving and re-opening TABS when restarted?
I've read a million Help articles and verified all the recommended settings are applied but I'm sorry, this new Tabs functionality is counter-intuitive and just plain misleading. Firefox saves Tabs, but only if it's closed in *this* particular way? Please. I'm having enough trouble adjusting to the use of a Mac, without Firefox compounding the problem by removing / obstructing the use of a feature that was previously easy to use, and made perfect sense! If we click "Show my windows and tabs from last time", it means we want Firefox to SHOW MY WINDOWS AND TABS FROM LAST TIME! Even if we click the "X" button to close Firefox.
Anyway the bottom line is that I've lost all my working TABS (again), but this time clicking on the History menu, the "Restore Previous Session" command is DISABLED. What options do I have? I haven't restarted Firefox once since having my Tabs disappear, so they should still be saved somewhere. (in the BAK file?)
And I don't want to have to sift through months of history to try and find all the Tabs I had open!
This new logic that makes it more complicated to save Tabs across sessions is NOT an improvement!
Thanks in advance.Tabs are only saved if you close (Firefox > Quit) the Firefox application while those tabs are still showing. If you close a window and still have the menu bar visible then you wont reopen already close tabs. You may need to be able to reopen the three last closed windows via History > Recently closed Windows.

I really would like to know how to totally remove Yahoo toolbar from my Firefox browser as well as my computer. I don't like special toolbars at all. I find it irritating that you included one in the newest version of your browser. In the future I would hope you would leave this or any other out. Firefox used to be my favorite browser to use, now I am not going to want to use it because of the extra toolbar. Please tell me there is a way to remove this, not just hide it.
You can't move the Yahoo Toolbar from IE to Firefox, they are totally different "behind the scenes". However you can install it, [http://us.toolbar.yahoo.com/ http://us.toolbar.yahoo.com/] and I believe if you log in with your Yahoo account it will sync your data.

I am using lightroom 5 and would like to upgrade to lightroom 6. I am not interested in the subscription based craetive cloud model. The website keeps pushing me to the subscription based model. Can someone guide me on how to just upgrade from 5 to 6 (desktop version and not the cloud subscription version)?
Hello,
there are informations about your interests here: http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-lightroom-6-cc-direct-download-links.html >>> See: Importantly, this new version continues as a downloadable desktop product and is available either with a standalone perpetual license (called Lightroom 6) or via subscription (called Lightroom CC). It’s the same exact program and free trial download below, but the name is changed to reflect the differences in licensing and bundling, as well as the addition of integrated mobile apps & services and future feature updates.
From there you will find a download link.

That is stealing. Your friend has no right/licence to give the songs to you. It violates copyright law.
