My tabs page shows nothing but the new search bar but that can't even be used either

So I use the newtabs page all the time, infact everytime I open firefox but I have opened newtabs page this morning and none of my pages are there at all and I haven't click "Hide new tabs page". All that is on the newtabs page is that new searchbar but thats not working for searches either.

Are there any errors in the Browser Console (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer) that could be related to this?
Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
*Download the full Firefox installer and save the file to the desktop https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
If possible uninstall your current Firefox version to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove "personal data" when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords including data in profiles created by other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
*(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure NOT to remove personal data when you uninstall Firefox as that will remove all Firefox profile folders and you lose your personal data.
If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
Open iTunes.
Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.
(You may already have a micro USB cable if you have a camera or other digital device)

Can't get the new Search Bar while using Music Store

Just downloaded iTunes 5 last night for Windows XP and everything is OK except the ability to show the new search bar in the Music Store. I am able to use the new bar on all other apps of iTunes 5 (library, purchased music, etc.) except for the music store, and that's where for me it would be the most useful! Anyone else having this issue, or anyone know a fix?

Well OK, except if you watch the Apple Special Event where Steve Jobs unveils among other things the nano and the iTunes 5 enhancements, around 16:00 into it, he demos iTunes where he uses the new search bar in the Music Store. So what gives? More pixar special effects or what?

My Firefox front page looks nothing like the new one shown on the download page

I've just updated as per your updater, but still sit with a plain white page with the "Moz Firefox" sign, nothing resembling the page shown on your update advisory page, with the tab for saving your most use sites, etc. The same page it has always been.

The final version might have picked up your existing profile preferences...
To restore your location bar, right-click after the menu bar and choose Navigation Toolbar from the pop-up.
Use the same pop-up to change the position of tabs (check Tabs on Top) and finally to remove the menu bar. When the menu bar is turned off, you will get the orange Firefox button.
Does that work?

I downloaded 4.0.1 and lost all my Yahoo toolbar apps but still have the Yahoo search bar. How can I get the apps back? Refreshing the "gear" does nothing.

I have Windows XP and downloaded Firefox 4.0.1. After it was installed 5/7/11, I noticed all my Yahoo search bar apps were missing. Rebooting did not help. Neither did the "gear" on the toolbar next to the yellow Yahoo search box. Internet Explorer browser still shows them. How can I get the apps back in Firefox?

I have Windows 7, the Yahoo toolbar has been working fine until today now all my apps are missing.
Refreshing the toolbar does nothing.

I had to change to a new Apple MacBook Pro. I deauthorized my old computer, authorized the new one and less than a quarter of my media shows up in the new computer. Everything that was downloaded from a cd is missing. Any help?

I had to change to a new Apple MacBook Pro. I deauthorized my old computer, authorized the new one and the only media that shows up are items with a cloud. Everything that was downloaded from a cd, including personal movie files, are missing. It's as if my former library is gone. How can I find it again? Or is this just Apples way of screwing with me?

No. Firewire and Ethernet are not the same. Ethernet would be used to connect the computers to your network. A Firewire cable is used to connect the computers directly. They are different ports.
The above shows what an Ethernet port and a Firewire 400 port look like.
These are the plugs used for FW800 on the left and FW400 on the right.

Why does the quick search bar lead me directly to amazon - it used to take me to google. Please help me fix this.

this is the search bar at the top right of the page -

* [[Search bar#w_re-ordering-search-engines|Re-ordering Search Engines]]
* Move Google search engine to the top
Check and tell if its working.

I have around 400 tabs that I have bookmarked in the Tab bar, below the Browser search bar. How can I effectively and efficiently consolidate these tabs.

I am running Firefox 4.0 for desktop, running Windows XP 32bit.
I have looked at putting all the similar tabs into a bookmark folder and saving it but this would require me to individually open up all my tabs, from which I could start to organise them better. Is there a more efficient and effective way of solving my problem? If I have to follow this method, will deleting the tabs after they've been put into bookmark folders, affect the storage of these tabs?
Thanks.

You can use "Bookmark All Tabs" to place those tabs in one bookmarks folder.
You can open all links in a folder by middle-clicking this folder.
* "Bookmark All Tabs" can be accessed via the right-click context menu of a tab on the tab bar.

My i phone 4 that erased and sold is getting my pictures on the new i phone 5 that i bought even though he has another apple id

i followed that directions of how to erase everything on the iphone 4 before selling it and i sold it before 7 days yesterday i connected my new i phone 5s to my laptop or itunes that i used to sync with it the i phone 4 today the friend i sold contacted me telling me that he has my new pics taken by my new i phone 5s although he has his own apple id

if you did erase all content and settings on your device before selling there is no way for it to come on any other device especially if your friend says he is usinga differant apple ID.
change your apple ID password to be on the safe side anyways

Middle click new search bar's search for with should open in a new tab.

Is there a setting anywhere to enable middle clicking on alternative search engines in the new search bar to open in a new tab.

You can set this pref to true on the about:config page to open the results in a new tab.
*about:config page: browser.search.openintab = true
You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar.
You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.

I have a disk inserted into my MAC that is not showing up in the Finder side bar. How do I eject it?

I have a disk inserted into my MacBook Pro that is not showing up in the Finder side bar. How can I get it "ejected?" (I've checked in system preferences under CDs & DVDs and did not find a solution.)

Five ways to eject a stuck CD or DVD from the optical drive
Ejecting the stuck disc can usually be done in one of the following ways:
1. Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
      left mouse button until the disc ejects.
2. Press the Eject button on your keyboard.
3. Click on the Eject button in the menubar.
4. Press COMMAND-E.
5. If none of the above work try this: Open the Terminal application in
      your Utilities folder. At the prompt enter or paste the following:
        /usr/bin/drutil eject
If this fails then try this:
Boot the computer into Single-user Mode. At the prompt enter the same command as used above. To restart the computer enter "reboot" at the prompt without quotes.

New Search Bar

Hi People,
I'm sure most of you have noticed the new tab buttons on the top of the page. And chances are you've also seen the new search bar and how it works much like "Spotlight" does.
I'm trying to understand how it actually works but unfortunately the source code doesn't offer much in lessons.
If you know anything please post it so that all those interested could learn as well. And if you havn't checked it out yet, you'll find it's fantastic in operation. Although a few Win users have reported a site crash while using IE (must be a problem with the browsers code
Oh and if this is posted in the wrong place, I do apologize. I didn't know where to include it.

hi guys,
I'd still like some help on my topic if anyone is listening. Hope someone replies cause chances are I'll keep posting and bumping until I get something

My backround on the new tab page is gone. The boxes are there but I mean the actual background. It went away after updating an I wanna fix it.

After updating my Firefox, the background for my new tabs page is gone. The boxes are there. But the rest of the screen is just plain white and I dont know how to fix it.

The background on my new tabs page is white - actually bright grey, which is evidently the default. For changing colors used see
[[Change the fonts and colors websites use]]
Check the '''Allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above.''' If unchecked, so only boxes without any content are shown.

Everytime I open a new window to browse, in this new window I would right click to open link in new tab but the new tab always shows up in the other window.

I would click a link which opens a new window. Then in this new window, I would right click to open link in new tab. The new tab does not show up in this new window. It instead shows up in the original browser window. How can I make the new tab show up in the same window?

Firefox did have a behavior where some new windows -- those considered to be dialogs -- could not have new tabs, so new tabs were diverted to the window from which the dialog was opened.
According to the bug tracking system, a fix is in the works:
[https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=644729 644729 – Popup window with all toolbars visible causes new tabs to open in another browser window] referencing [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=485237 485237 – Need to treat popups consistently].
That second ones says Target Milestone: Firefox 12, so the fix probably didn't make it into Firefox 11.
WORKAROUNDS
That first bug says there is an add-on to work around this -- it enables the middle mouse button to open links in a dialog window: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bug-586234-unfixer/ Bug 586234 Unfixer :: Add-ons for Firefox]. I haven't tried it myself.

My tabs page shows nothing but the new search bar but that can't even be used either
