My computer is not accepting Mozilla firefox as my chosen default program any more so when I click on start menu or on the icon on my desktop I get blank then goes to my home page for Yahoo email?

I've tried to restore Mozilla as my default webb browser but it wont accept my choice, very confusing. It goes to a blank screen then my yahoo mail and when I want to brose the webb and then close down the start menu will only show if I use the control and escape buttons on my keyboard. Please help me anyone!

    Have you checked your email's spam folder to make sure an email from Apple has not been put in there?

  • My mail is set up but when I touch the mail icon the screen is blank with a message saying 'no message selected' then goes straight to home page. I have rebooted, deleted and reloaded my email account but nothing is working.

    My mail is set up and it comes up with 75 messages received but when I click onto the mail icon the page is blank(White) with the message 'no message selected' and then goes to the homepage.  I have rebooted the iPad and deleted and reloaded my mail account but nothing works.

    The app is crashing for some reason - maybe an email with a very large attachment or some crappy spam email is messing things up. Quit the mail app.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close mail by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on the mail app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close it.  Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    If mail still crashes, go to your webmail in a browser and see if you have an email in there that might be causing a problem and delete it. Then try the app again. If necessary, quit the app, restart the iPad and then try again.
    If that doesnt help, try a reset. Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • On one site, Mozilla Firefox doesn't remember my Password any more, but Internet Explorer does.

    Yesterday, I accessed the website for my bank. I entered the account #, then the password. I received an error message on the password, although I was almost sure the password was correct. I clicked "don't remember password" and was given the very password I had entered. I was really puzzled, but tried it again. It still didn't work. I then tried Internet Explorer at the advice of my bank rep. I created a new password on Internet Explorer, and was able to get right through to the website. Later, I tried Mozilla Firefox again with the original password. Again, the password was not accepted, but when I asked to access the correct password, I was given the new password I had entered on Internet Explorer. I'm very confused. Please help!

  • How can I set the default home page for all new users in Firefox 4

    I'm trying to deploy FF 4.0rc1 in a corporate environment but I can't find a way to set the default home page or any other settings for that matter.
    Is there a way to set the default home page for all new users and lock it so that the users can't change home page?
    Best regards
    Jonas

    In Firefox 4 the template folder for new profiles (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\defaults\profile\
    ) doesn't exist. You can create that \defaults\profile\ folder and place a file user.js in it with the prefs that you want to initialize.
    See:
    *http://www-archive.mozilla.org/catalog/end-user/customizing/briefprefs.html
    You can also use a mozilla.cfg file to set the default value for prefs.<br />
    See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences
    defaultPref(); // set new default value
    pref(); // set pref, but allow changes
    lockPref(); // lock pref, disallow changes

    == This happened ==

    Firefox can have multiple home pages if you wish. Each home page that will open when starting Firefox is separated by the "|" character.
    See: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
    To have new tabs open a specific web site, add one of the following extensions:

  • When I click my home page icon the tab this is open goes to my home page BUT another new tab opens.

    when I click my home page icon the tab that is open goes to my home page BUT another new tab opens. How do I stop the new tab from appearing?

    It's easy to add extra tabs to your set of home pages. You can use the Options dialog to make sure there is only one. These articles point the way:
    * [[Startup, home page and download settings]]
    * [[How to set the home page]]
    Because the space is short, you may want to select the whole home page URL (Ctrl+A) and paste it into a document or into a larger textbox like the one I'm typing in now. You're looking for a vertical bar (|) that is followed by a second URL.
    If it's not part of your home page setting, the most likely cause for this change is a bad add-on that rode along with some free software.
    I suggest starting here:
    Open Windows Control Panel, Uninstall a Program. Click the "Installed on" column heading to group the infections, I mean, additions, by date. This can help in smoking out undisclosed bundle items that snuck in with some software you agreed to install. Take out as much trash as possible here.
    Then, in Firefox, open the Add-ons page using either:
    * Ctrl+Shift+a
    * "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable (or Remove, if possible).
    Often a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
    Does that shut down the extra tab?
