Is it possible on startup to make Tab Groups not load until they are selected?

I was wondering if there is a way to make the Tab Groups in the background not bother to load until that Group is selected. I.e. when I start up Firefox it loads the Group I was last on normally, but all the ones in the background don't load until I access them.

App tabs have not graphic icon, they are all blank white, no gmail, facebook, twitter. They are all exactly the same. Quit FF, refreshed page,... stood on head... nada

'pin as app tab' turns the wide tab to a small tab. But there is no identifying icon - they are all identical. The default 'white page of paper with dogear upper right' is all I see.

Sorry, Mozilla, NVM. Turns out the cause was the addon '''Favicon Picker'''. Disabled it (replaced with ''Bookmark Favicon Changer''), and now all icons show ok (app tabs, normal tabs). Yaay, me=happy!!

Sometimes when I open a link in a new tab, the new tab does not load the link.

I am trying to clear files from my computer. I have a bunch of .m4v protected files that will not delete. They are lectures from college that I do not need anymore and would like to delete them to make room on my computer.

I am trying to clear files from my computer. I have a bunch of .m4v protected files that will not delete. They are lectures from college that I do not need anymore and would like to delete them to make room on my computer. I have looked at the help sites and they seem to give directions to change files that people are saving in the future and not regarding past files. I am unable to change anything about the file including the name, so I can not change these past files from .m4v to something else which is deletable such as .mp4 etc. Any help would be much appreciated!!!!

Well, most of what we can tell you is already stated in the message you are getting. A phone can only sync with one library at a time. You have apparently synced your phone with a different iTunes library in the past, or changes have been made to this library so the phone no longer recognizes it as the library with which it was synced. To know which you will have to provide the information.
If you bought them using the AppleID you use with this phone it may simply be easier to re-download them directly to the phone rather than sync them, though you will want to resolve that issue at some point.

Is there a way to make tab groups permanent?

in a few occasions when i open a new window,
and close the window with my existing tab groups first.
i can't recover the tab groups that i've created

yes that is exactly the problem , here's the sequence :
normally i only open 1 firefox window, and it has all my tab groups.
so i am able to open/close firefox and retain these tab groups.
and then there are times when i just have to open a new window,
and unfortunately, there are times when
- i close my base window first ( the one with the tab groups )
- then i am left with the new window ( which no longer retains my tab groups )
- i have no choice but to close this new window
when i reopen firefox, i no longer have my old tab groups.
so this is where my problem lies. of course if can make
the habit of always going to firefox > exit, at least the
tab groups are always available.
it would have been great if these tab groups are stored
permanently, like bookmarks. it just feels convenient
to use.

Firefox 14 is playing random music and new tabs do not remember sites and are always called "New Tab".

2 problems have suddenly started.
1. A few seconds after I open Firefox 14 (with my home tab set to Google) music or ads or random snatches of radio begin to play. The only way I can stop it is by closing Firefox. After a while they stop.
2. When I open Firefox the first tab acts properly. It is named with the site I am on and, when I leave it, is there on return. The other tabs have suddenly stopped changing names to the name of the site and when I return to them they are defaulting to a page of recently visited sites. This is even more annoying than problem 1. Can anyone help please?

It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

App Tabs do not load on restart. "All of the App Tabs you have set when you close Firefox will open as App Tabs when you start Firefox again."

Use FF3 and taking a look at FF4. I set up some App Tabs. Close FF4. Open FF4. No App Tabs.
Any Help?

Are you clearing your recent history when you close Firefox?
Firefox stores App Tabs and tab group details in the same file that stores details of browsing sessions. Make sure that you have not set Firefox to delete browsing history. For details of the setting to check see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Clear+Recent+History

Opening links in new tab will not load pages either from new link or bookmarked pages after firefox 3.6 update

After updating my fire fox to 3.6.3 I now cannot click on links into a new tab it will just open a blank tab, after hitting refresh, nothing happens. But when clicking bookmark link it will open in new tab as wanted but will not load unless I re-click it a second time. Clicking links normally will load page. Entering a URL like www.yahoo.com will not load either. To get to this page I had to a search engine like yahoo and type in fire fox website and it from there.

Create Tab Groups not working

I have just tried to follow the Help topic at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/what-are-tab-groups#w_how-do-i-create-a-tab-group, to create groups of tabs relating to same subject, ready to save the tab group as a Favourite/Bookmark.
With the Tab Group view open it says "To make a new group, simply drag one tab out of the group and then drag a second one on top of it. A box will be drawn around them."
Looking at the screenshot accompanying the instruction, it appears that the selected tab from the group view is 'dragged' on to the Desktop (it doesn't actually state where to drag the thumbnail image of the tab to in the instructions).
As soon as the thumbnail image is dragged outside of the tab group view panel - i.e. towards the Desktop - a black 'no entry' symbol (black circle with black diagonal line across its diameter) appears over the thumbnail & when the left mouse button is released the thumbnail 'snaps' back into its original position in the tab group view panel.
What am I doing wrong?

Hi ukdeejay,
Are you sure that you've actually opened the Tab Group window? Try hitting ''CTRL + SHIFT + E''. From this screen you just drag one item out of the existing group.
You might want to try starting Firefox in Safe Mode and trying it from there. If it works in Safe Mode, you should look at [[Troubleshooting-extensions-themes]].
Hopefully this helps!

Child tabs will not load params automatically

It seems as though by default the tabnavigator does not load
the parameters in any of the child tabs. I am having a problem if
the child tabs are not viewed and the user submits the form, i
receive a cannot access property or method of a null object. If i
view all the tabs i dont get the error. I've given my tabs id's and
tried loading them with creationComplete within TabNavigator but
that didnt turn up any results.
Is there another property i have overlooked that will load
all the params of all the child tabs?
Thanks!

Be aware though, when you are ready, that this can have
adverse effects on the percieved startup performance of your app,
because *every* component must be rendered before the app is
available for user interaction. This is why creationPolicy is not
all by default.
The best practice way to handle situations like this is to
use binding in the navigator children to "pull" the data in, or use
a function on the childs creationComplete event to do the same.

Room. All of my photos are filed as Events. Is it possible to back them up in such a way that they are kept in the same Events that they are currently stored?

I use iPhoto and iMovie and I want to safely take the media off my Mac Air (to give me more space) and store it for future use. All of my photos are stored as "Events". Is it possible to store them on an external NAS drive in such a way that they are kept in the same Events folder that they are currently stored so that I can, in the future, reload them onto the Air in the same Events folder? I really do not want to have to create and name folders for thousands of photos!
Your help is appreciated!

Easiest solution: move the Library to an external disk:
Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Note: you cannot use a NAS for an iPhoto Library.
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

Tab Navigator not loading all tabs at start

I have a tab navigator with a dataGrid in one tab and another
dataGrid in another and when I double click the dataGrid in tab 1 I
want it to go to tab 2 and set the selected item or dataGrid1 to
dataGrid2. The problem is when I double click on the dataGrid, and
havent navigated to tab 2 before. This gives "TypeError: Error
#1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object
reference." The tabNavigator's creationPolicy="all" and the
function that is called on doubleClick is
private function GotoNext():void{
if(firstDataGrid.selectedItem!=null){
myTabNavigator.selectedIndex=1;
secondDataGrid.selectedItem=firstDataGrid.selectedItem;
This works if I first click on the 2nd tab then click back on
the 1st tab, but not if I just double click.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris

App store purchase tab crash/not loading in iOS 6

Hi,
Since I updated to iOS 6 using my iPhone 4S the purchase feature on the updates tab in the App Store does not load or even let the App Store app crash and jump back to the home screen.
This occurs as well on wifi as well on 3G.
Anyone else encounter this issue?
Ps: I restored my phone on iOS 5 and reinstalled all apps from scratch one day before updating to iOS 6. So basically my iPhone was setup as new iPhone just before updating.

I found that on my other account that has way less purchases the purchased tab does open on the exact same device.
It all seem to have something to do with how many items you bought.
Looks like you get punished for having bought too much :P
Hope they fix it soon. The release of iTunes 11 was a small hope since the AppStore was updated there also. But nothing. I keep hoping, so far the comment in the iOS 5 keynote "We cut the wire you no longer need a PC" is not really doing it for me right now :D

Links that launch a new tab do not load

I have the "open new windows in a new tab instead" option enabled but whenever I click on a link outside of the browser (e.g., in an email) a new tab is opened and the URL appears in the address bar. However, the page does not load. If I click on the address bar and hit enter it loads properly.
If I uncheck the above option, the links load in a new window properly.
In FF3, the links opened a new tab and loaded the page.
Is there a way to get FF4 to open a new tab and load the page?

This site is the culprit for me every time I try to visit my granddaughter's website..... this thing pops up even when I tell Firefox to block them, and not allow any cookies.... firefox cleans out my request and it pops up again. That's a major bug in my book.
Here try it yourself and see if it happens for you.
