New Firefox 3.6.15 always crashes on startup; how do I get back to 3.6.14?

Firefox automatically updated from 3.6.14 to 3.6.15 and now I have no Firefox at all. It crashes every time app is selected; does not work in Safe Mode either. Anyone know how to get back to previous versions -- e.g., 3.6.14? If not, I guess I'm off to Google Chrome... really tired of fighting Firefox goofiness!

I am having the same problem. Updated early this morning. Now, I can't use Firefox at all, even in safe mode.

I followed the instructions to install the Put Tabs at the End, restarted Firefox and it still doesn't work. How do I get back to 3.6.22??? PLEASE

The upgrade to 3.6.23 took away my tabs. I use them constantly. I followed your instructions to add the plug-in, but it doesn't work. I did it twice to be sure. It doesn't work.

You can set the pref browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent to false on the about:config page.
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. 
*Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
*Preferences that have been modified show as bold (user set).
*Preferences can be reset to the default via the right-click context menu if they are user set
*Preferences can be changed via the right-click context menu: Modify (String or Integer) or Toggle (Boolean)

Until today, on a particular site I access multiple times daily, the username was always present, until I checked box today, alway remember password. How do I get back to the username always present, without having to click the box?

I really want the username and password info to stay in the respective boxes without having to do anything to get them there, like they have been the last three years until today. (This is on a site I access multiple times daily, and is not a site having any security issues).

Double-click within the box, then for each incorrect user name, select it, and press "Del" key
(Mac users will have to use "Shift+Del" instead of just "Del" key)

Computer crashed...how do i get back music i purchased?

I had to reinstall everything on my laptop, and I lost I Tunes. I have reinstalled it, but is there any way to get back the music that I paid for through itunes? Do i have to repurchase it? Surely not......right?

If you didn't make a back-up of your purchases to restore from then I'm sorry to say that the policy on lost purchases is that you have to pay to download them again:
"Once a Product is purchased and you receive the Product, it is your responsibility not to lose, destroy, or damage the Product, and Apple shall be without liability to you in the event of any loss, destruction, or damage." iTunes Store: Purchased content can be downloaded only once
You could try contacting the iTunes Music Store Customer Service and you might be able to persuade them to sanction a second free download. There have been occasional reports in the iTunes forum of this happening, however just be aware that they are not under any obligation to do so. If you click on any of the links on this page you'll find a space at the bottom to email your query: iTMS Customer Service
If you have an iPod that still has the purchases on it the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer

How do I get back the 'open new tab' button (+ sign at right end of tabs) in Firefox 4 ?

How do I get back the 'open new tab' button (+ sign at right end of tabs) in Firefox 4 ? I realize there is a 'new tab' button at the right end of the toolbar but I like the new tab function placed next the tabs ?

*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Form+autocomplete
The "Use custom settings for history" setting allows to see the current history and cookie settings, but selecting that setting doesn't make any changes to history and cookie settings. 
Firefox shows the "Use custom settings for history" setting as an indication that at least one of the history and cookie settings is not the default to make you aware that changes were made. 
If all History settings are default then the custom settings are hidden and you see "Firefox will: (Never) Remember History".

Iphoto crashes so tried the Alt start with new library and that worked. So now what? How to I get back to my pictures.

Iphoto crashes so tried the Alt start with new library and that worked. So now what? How to I get back to my pictures.

That shows you that iPhoto is working correctly and whatever issue you are having is based in your original library.
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Ever since I got the "new & improved" Firefox, I have had all kinds of problems the latest of which has left me without toolbars. How can I get back to the previous version?

WITH THE OLD MOZILLA FIREFOX
FOR YEARS.
NO CHANGES HERE IN ANYTHING ELSE.

Click the Firefox button, go to Add-ons, then Plugins and disable the following: 
* Fun Web Products Plugin 
* My Web Search 
Both of these are adware/spyware and cause performance issues in Firefox.
Next, click the Extensions menu link (above Plugins where you are) and remove the "Ask Toolbar".
If the problem persists, please do the following: 
#Click '''Help '''| '''Restart with Add-ons disabled'''. 
#In the next menu which appears, checkmark: "'''Reset toolbars and Controls'''". 
#Finally, click the button called "'''Make changes and restart'''".
Just in case you weren't aware of it, you can right click the Back or Forward buttons to get a list of sites visited. If you'd like to see the return of the arrow on the Back button, install this add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker/
Last but not least, some of your plugins are seriously out of date which exposes your system to exploits. Please visit the [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/ Plugins Check] page and update where necessary.

*Ask Toolbar Plugin Stub for 32-bit Windows
Unfortunately, it is becoming more and more common for these kinds of "extras" (toolbars, security scanners, etc.) to be added to your browser/system/desktop when adding or updating other software, some from very well-know software vendors. You must carefully read information before downloading any "free" software and be very alert during the install process for any opportunity to opt-out of "extras" being installed.
'''If you have the Ask Toolbar''' 
* First try to disable or uninstall the Ask Toolbar in Firefox via "Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions". See: [[Uninstalling add-ons]] 
*In some cases, you may need to uninstall the Ask Toolbar using Windows Control Panel .
**See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Cannot+uninstall+an+add-on#Uninstall_from_Windows_Control_Panel Cannot uninstall an add-on - Uninstall from Windows Add/Remove Programs].
'''You '''MAY''' need to reset your homepage''' if an Ask search page opens when first starting Firefox. Firefox can open multiple home pages. Home pages are separated by the "|" symbol.
*See: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
'''You ''MAY'' need to reset a preference''' if searches from the URL/location bar take you to an Ask search page. 
To reset the preference related to Ask search from the URL/location bar via about:config, specifically the keyword.URL preference - 
*Open a new tab or window.
*Type '''''about:config''''' in the URL/address bar and press the Enter key
*If you see a warning, accept it (promise to be careful)
*Filter = keyword.url
*Right-click on the preference below the Filter, and choose Reset
*Restart Firefox (File > Restart Firefox)

A new tab opens by default as a blank tab (about:blank).
If that isn't the case then an extension has changed that behavior.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] 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.

In the new tab yahoo search page is opening everytime. How can I get rid of it and just get a blank page instead?

whenever i am opening a new tab - yahoo search page is opening up. How can I get rid of this. I want a blank page to be open up instead of yahoo search page in new tab.

This might be a feature of the Yahoo toolbar. Can you live without it? To disable or remove the toolbar, use
Tools menu > Add-ons > Extensions category
After restarting Firefox, do new tabs become blank again?
