IPhone automatically going to home page
When going through applications on my iPhone, the phone will go back to the home page and I would have to start over in the application I was working in this is happing in all applications, Email, Ipod, Safari, etc. I just tried a hard turn off and checked for updates other then that the phone works great. Any help would be very appreciated.
You said "hard" turn off. Do you mean you turned it off then on. If so, that really won't help. A reset (reboot) does. And if that fails, then a restore.
This thread describes a reset/reboot along with more advice/info.

Dude or hot-spur,
Not fishy at all!!!! You really think I would have taken any more of my time to post a bogus rant? We'll no, it is unfortunately all true. I want to hear from anyone who is experiencing such problems not anyone else that wants to put there two cents in. I really don't need anymore hate or negativity. Just people's experiences because I feel like I am the only one having so many problems. Thank you
Yes, I have had some unfortunate bad luck to have so many problems at the same time, but some of them are just things you cannot do on the new OS.
Thank you again -
my iphone automatically goes to landscape mode.. i can't view the songs in the ipod app coz of this. How can I fix this?
I am having the same problem with a new phone. Is yours new? I was planning to take this one back to the store where I purchased it. I updated itunes and phone software, didn't help, so I'm thinking it's a hardware problem.

I want name on address bar goes to home page, not search engine
Just today I hooked up a new modem/router that I purchased at a WIndstream store. I have been browsing the internet for years with Firefox. I have changed the keyword.url setting in my Firefox configuration (see https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/833252#answer-197476) so that the new version would act like the old version and go directly to the webpage when the name was typed in the address bar. For example: when I type in "windstream" (no ".net" or".com") I would go directly to windstream' home page.
However, when I hooked up my new modem/router I my browser is hijacked and goes to a Windstream search page. I have tried everything from re-installing Firefox, re-changing the "keyword.url" setting, I even tried the Firefox ad-on here (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/browse-by-name/).
All to no avail......there is something that has changed by adding Windstream's hardware and connecting to their network that will not allow me to use this function of Firefox.
Nothing else changed, but a new piece of hardware.....
Changed keyword.url to : http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=
Re-installed Firefox after cleaning all history and cookies.
Tried the add-on "Browse by name"
Wasted my time calling Windstream tech support.
Changed to openDNS
Tried to disable the feature through Windstream's web page, but then it just happens with the new search engine.Opt-out of Windstream's search service: Type in something to get their sneaky web search page to come up, then click the tiny link at the bottom right "about this page". That sends you to a page where you can opt-out of their service.
To opt-out from their "valuable" sneaky service, you have to choose to opt-in to another search service.
You have to do this with each browser. And it still sends you to your search engine's results page, not to your URL the way you might want it to.
I would rather the default be to allow me to opt-in if I choose to, not have to jump through hoops to find out how to opt-out. It's taken me weeks to discover this. Annoying! -
When clicking the + tab in the tab bar how do I set new tabs to automatically open my home page
When clicking the + tab in the tab bar how do I set new tabs to automatically open my home page
You can do that by using an add-on such as:
* NewTabURL - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/newtaburl
* New Tab Homepage - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage
Another way of opening the home page in a new tab is to middle click on the home button in the navigation toolbar. -

my iphone 6 suddently stopped receiving messages, I switched Imessage off and on. But just says sending. Apps crashing and going back to home screen. Mail app just crashes straight away. How to fix this?
Hi lucy544,
If you are having issues with your iPhone's applications quitting or becoming unresponsive, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
First, quit all running applications and test again -
Force an app to close in iOS
Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPhone -
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Whenever I am on the internet on my phone it keeps reverting back to the home screen. It's been happening a lot lately and is quite aggravating. Why is this happening and how do I fix it?
try clearing history and internet cache in your safari options in the setting menu... This can cause the Safari App to crash
Also doing a reset cant hurt either

hope this helps
If this does not help you may want to do a restore from within iTunes
and if none of the above helps then contact Apple 1-800-myiPhone
hope this helps -
It never used to happen it just randomly started, if i hover over a link and press the button between Alt Gr and Ctrl then it will come up with options without going to the link itself
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

IPhone goes to home screen while surfing
while in safari surfing, my iPhone auto goes to home screen. What's the problem? It is a pain while composing emails or even this MSG as it usually causes me to have to log back in and start over
When it goes back to the home screen that means the application has crashed. Try going to settings - safari and empty caches/cookies/etc to see if this will correct the issue.

After Firefox performed an automatic upgrade, my home page and "Restore to Default" setting changed. I can input the correct URL and save and that works fine during that session. But when the browser is closed and brought back up again, it reverts to this different home page (my companies intranet page). I've tried changing the "home page default" setting in the browserconfig.properties file and did a find and replace of the wrong URL in the "pref.js" files. But it keeps going back to the wrong address each time a new browser session is started. This all happened after an automatic upgrade was done to bring Firefox to version 3.6.8.
This has happened on both of my work computers that run Windows XP - SP 3, IE 7.0.573 and Symantec Antivirus. So I'd think the chances of both computers being hit by the exact some problem, at the exact same time, changing the home page to the exact same URL and neither of the computers' antivirus protection catching it are rather slim. But I suppose that's a possibility. However, since this happened immediately following the browser upgrade, I have to think that this new installation has something to do with it.
Any suggestions?Did you look for a '''user.js''' file in your Profile folder?
http://kb.mozillazine.org/User.js_file
Prefs in that file will override the same pref in the prefs.js file on each Firefox startup.
Have you contacted your IT department about that issue?
Maybe they are overriding your homepage setting? -

DON;T WANT TO GO TO HOME PAGE WHEN I OPEN NEW TAB
HOW DO I STOP GOING TO HOME PAGE WHEN I OPEN A NEW TAB? I DON'T WANT TO GO TO HOME PAGE WHEN I OPEN A NEW TAB, I WANT TO SEE A BLANK PAGE, THEN I CAN PUT IN THE URL OF MY CHOICE. I ONLY WANT TO SEE HOME PAGE WHEN I OPEN FIREFOX, OR WHEN I SELECT IT USING THE HOME PAGE BUTTON.

Now on Firefox 28.0. I got an update for Divx and installed. Following this new tabs were direct to search.conduit. I uninstalled this but now when I open new tabs I get a blank page and have to manually direct to my homepage. Previously a new tab opened automatically as my home page (Google). Starting Firefox gets me the correct homepage. How can I ensure that each new tab opens to my homepage?
Your settings might have switched when you installed DivX. You can set the new tab page to something different by the following:
*Navigate to about:config
*Click ''I'll be careful, I promise!''
*Search for '''browser.newtab.url'''
*Double click the string, erase ''about:newtab'' and enter the one you want (www.google.com)
*Close down Firefox and re-open.
