Most of the times my saved tabs open, but every once in a while they don't and I lose them

I usually have a bunch of links open, so I have the settings set so my previous tabs always open. Most of the time, they do. Every once in a while, like today, though, Firefox decides to open to my home page instead. I never know when it is going to do this, so I never know which links to save in case it happens. Often, therefore, I lose several of the links I had open.

The [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2324/ Session Manager] add-on may be helpful - it uses a more complete and fail-proof method, generally, and has a number of advanced features for session management.
Please let us know how above works out, and if we can be of further assistance. Detailed feedback is appreciated and helps us to help you better, plus enables us to better help other users with similar issues.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    The first thing to check would be your internet download speed, you can do this at www.speedtest.net.
    1080p HD movies require a recommended speed of 8 Mbps, 720p HD movies require a recommended speed of 6 Mbps, while SD movies require a recommended speed of 2.5 Mbps.
    Netfix uses adaptive streaming, if you have a slow connection it will reduce the quality of the video, iTunes ensures you get the quality you pay for.

  • I have an iPad 1st generation that no longer has working volume buttons but every once in a while the sound turns on.  So I know the speakers still work.  I have tried resetting all settings and made sure that my side switch was auto lock not auto mute.

    I have an iPad 1st generation that no longer has working volume buttons but every once in a while the sound turns on.  So I know the speakers still work.  I have tried resetting all settings and made sure that my side switch was auto lock not auto mute. I have tried the mystical swiping upward on the screen with 4 fingers to get some special sound menu (which I never succeeded in getting).  My headphone jack doesn't work all the time either so some times my kids can hear their games and sometimes they can't.  I am super frustrated at this point.  So any suggestions would be great.  Am I missing something basic or do we just have a soundless iPad now?

  • Z87 MPOWER: the motherboard hangs up at code A2 every once in a while

    I just built this computer...my first build in about ten years.
    the motherboard hangs up at code A2 every once in a while. 4 out of 10 reboots it wont post and gets stuck at A2..... if it makes it past that it works fine. 
    I searched and that code appears to be SATA related. I swapped sata cables, no effect.. I'm using the cables that came with the Mpower mobo.
    Computer spec:
    MSI MPOWER Z87
    i7 4770K processor
    2x Crucial Ballistix Tactical 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM 8 Dual Channel Kit 1866 (PC3 15000)
    1X MSI 760 Hawk graphics card.
    1XCrucial M500 240GB 2.5-inch Internal SSD MU03
    V700 coolermaster supply.
    windows 8.1 pro (bit locker is off)

    I've already swapped cables....
    I've got a better handle on the symptom. and its very repeatable.
    It only posts when I use the reset button.
    A power on or reboot from windows will hang it at A2.
    it wasn't doing this when I first built it... but I installed a bunch of drivers. for the mobo and the video card.
    For the mainboard drivers, using Live Update or did you download and install them manually?

  • The new iPad looses conection to cell every once in a while

    The New iPad looses cell connection every once in a while even thought my iPhone stays connected constantly. M carrier is AT&T for both the iPad and the iPhone. It just goes into searching more for a couple of minutes and then it connects again.

    First, try bringing up Control Center by swiping up from the bottom of the home screen.  Turn on the flashlight by tapping the icon in the lower left.  Does the flashlight work?  If not, perhaps you have a hardware issue.
    If it works, check the top of the screen when you open the Camera app to make sure you have the flash on.

  • If I accidently open a 2nd session of firefox resulting in two open windows when I close one window they both close and I lose my tab groups. How can I close just one of the two windows?

    I have 3 profiles, one of which I typically use. I have firefox prompt for the profile when it loads. I recently renamed the profiles (earlier this week). So... the profiles do not exactly match the folder names for the profiles.

    I don't understand what happened above, but ericn1, wasn't your problem that you tried to close one browser window using the red X, and ALL of them closed? How did any of the above help you solve your problem? jscher2000 gave you alternate methods of closing windows but said that closing a window with the red X "should" work. It doesn't work, because it is closing ALL your windows, not just the one you are clicking on. I am now having the same problem. with Firefox.
    Understand I do not have the problem with any other program. In other words, I can open multiple windows in Paint Shop Pro, IE, Notepad, etc. and close one with the red X and all others remain open. It ONLY happens when using the Firefox browser.
    The red X should close only the window that you are in when you click on it.
    NOW, before someone suggests tabs, I don't like them and don't use them. My choice. Before someone says my browser is out-of-date, (3.6.13) I am using it because it was the last version that worked reliably on my computers, both at home (Windows 7 Professional) and my office (Windows XP Professional).
    When I updated to the last Firefox browser, both computers started seizing up (nothing worked and had to reboot using power button) Removing that version of Firefox and going back to this version solved that problem. Fact remains, version has little to do with this problem. I've seen other posts around the net about this with different (newer) versions of Firefox.
    So . . . does anyone have a solution to this that doesn't involve using keystrokes or hot keys to close windows instead of the red X that should work properly?

  • My macbook goes through weeks where when turning it on it goes to a black or flashing white screen. The light comes on but it will not boot up. Every once in a while I get lucky and it will start up. What is wrong with this thing!!!!???

    Is my Macbook just getting old? If anyone has a fix please let me know I need this computer for college and I can't just leave it on all the time!!!

  • Ever since I downloaded FF4, most of the time I can't open messages in Hotmail.

    Or in my junk mail.

    Try running Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If it works in that configuration, then one of your add-ons is the cause of the problem.
    P.S. ''Sorry it took so long to respond to your question''.

  • When i click on a pdf file to view from the internet, a new tab opens but there is no document to view.

    can't view any pdf files on line.

    Does your pdf reader plugin need updating, are you on version 7, whilst current version is v10

  • Most of the time when i click my magic mouse on an item it gives me options like back, open new page, etc.

    When I try to use my magic mouse, most of the time it won't open an item but instead will give me options like: back, open new page, open link in new window, and I am actually on top of for instance, the comment field in facebook...It takes several attempts of clicking off the entire page to get it to just open the link or respond appropriately...

    the mouse performs a right click instead of a left click. Check your mouse preferences in the system settings.

  • Re: Satellite Pro A300 - DVD drawer does not open most of the time

    I have a Satellite Pro A300-1NH laptop. The DVD drawer does not open most of the time. Occasionally it does, but most of the time it does not.
    Sometimes if I manage to get a DVD/CD into the drawer to burn something to, the burn works.
    Most of the time the computer does not recognise that there is a disc there, and then I can't open the drawer again to get it out.
    Can anyone tell a novice what I need to do to sort this out please?

    Have you noticed this when you try to open drawer using eject button in the drawer itself?
    Almost every player has integrated eject button. Can the drawer be opened using this eject button?

  • Shared printer not working (most of the time)

    I have a Mac Pro running Snow Leopard using a shared Epson R380 printer connected to a G5 (running Leopard) . Most of the time it doesn't work, but occasionally it will. On the Mac Pro, the Epson monitor says "print job accepted" but doesn't change. On the G5, the Epson monitor shows the print job, but says "job stopped". When trying to resume the job, a warning box pops up on the G5 saying "Operation C0uld Not Be Completed - client-error-not-possible".
    The shared printer works fine (most of the time, too) with another networked Mac, a Mac mini G4 running Leopard.
    All OS's are the latest possible.

    Sharing between Leopard and Snowleopard does not work reliably. For this reason, we do not recommend mixing Operating Systems.
    Hope this helps,
    Syd

  • When I open a link in a new tab, most of the time it opens to the bottom of the page, and I have to scroll back up to the top or hit the Home key.

    When reading a web page, I will right-click on a link and select 'open link in new tab' and most of the time it will open the new page right at the bottom. I then have to scroll up with the mouse or hit the 'home' button on my keyboard to get back to the top of the page. I've already looked at the tab settings in the options menu, and there's nothing there that seems to apply.

    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).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

    Most of the time, when I hit a link, it opens but tabs with ads or pages that I didn't ask for are opening also and they come up on top. I have to dump them to get to the link I originally hit. How can I stop this from happening? It's so irritating and they take a while to come up before I can close them. Note: I use Firefox for Mac OS

    You can stop that behavior by changing two settings within the browser. Go to Tools -> Options and click on the CONTENT button. Make sure that "Block pop-up windows" is checked. Then click on the ADVANCED button on the far right and add a check to "Warn me when websites try to redirect or reload".
    That should stop most of them. If not all, then you could install AdBlock Plus add-on, since most of the redirects are ad generated. (Tools -> Add-ons -> Get Add-ons)

  • I cannot open a new tab. When I press the tab bar, sometimes it opens, but most of the times it won't. It is especially so when there are already 5 tabs opened

    I have a problem opening a new tab with FireFox 24.0.
    When I press the tab bar, sometimes it opens, but most of the times it won't. It is especially so when there are already 5 tabs opened.
    I use "checkCompatibility 1.3" and "Google Toolbar for FireFox 7.1.20110512W" as addons. There have been no problems until the previous version of FireFox.

    Thank you for the reply.
    It works fine with the safe mode. So it must be something to do with <i>checkCompatibility 1.3</i> or <i>Google Toolbar for FireFox 7.1.20110512W</i>.
    Both are necessary to run Google Toolbar on Firefox, and the fact is Google Toolbar is too convenient to be removed. So I have bookmarked a couple of blank pages and I right-click them to open new tabs. But it is so tiresome.
    I hope this problem will be fixed in the next version. FireFox without Google Toolbar is just a useless browser.
