* In the about:config page, search for "newtab"
* Change the value for "browser.newtab.url" to a site of your choice
In order to change your Firefox Configuration please do the following steps :
# In the [[Location bar autocomplete|Location bar]], type '''about:config''' and press '''Enter'''. The about:config "''This might void your warranty!''" warning page may appear.
# Click '''I'll be careful, I promise!''' to continue to the about:config page.

  • Hi, I got the problem with Firefox 27.0.1. I can not run Selenium on Firefox after login a website for automation testing. The browser is not responding.

    Hi, I got the problem with Firefox 27.0.1. I can not run Selenium on Firefox after login a website for automation testing. The browser is not responding. However when I close Nunit, the page is back to be normal. The title is returned to the name of website without "not responding". I sure this problem did not happen on Firefox version 26. I just got this problem when firefox upgrading automatically to version 27. Please help me fix this problem because it is very important for my work. If you need more information pls send your concerns via my email address.
    Thanks so much

    Hi, the work around suggested above should put you in working mode in the meantime. However to help investigate the issue it is possible to analyze what is not loading or taking a long time by analyzing the network traffic or http headers of the Nunit web page.

  • After upgrade to Firefox Version 4, my Google is not working anymore. Google opens. But if i try to open a search result, page becomes pale and the sign "no feedback" appears. Scrolling also no more possible

    Every time I search with Google, I get a search result, but if I select one and click on it, the link does not open. Instead the page becomes pale and the sign "no feedback" appears. Also the scroll function does not work anymore. Impossible to use a Google link. I had to use the "Windows Explorer" again where Google works properly. (With the older Firefox Version I had never problems)

    I wish it were that but a long time ago when I had a problem with the gadgets with iGoogle back 6 months ago thereabouts I was asked to disable it then and I did and I just went to re-check and it is still not enabled, however, it will not let me un-install it though.. It only gives me an option to enable or disable.. Any advice ? So I'm wondering if it is something else still or is there a problem with the avast still ?
    thanks again for your help. Mind you that this all started when blogger went down ..
    take care

  • I have an airport extreem network that works with two MacBooks.  I am trying to get my PC (IBM ThinkPad) to connect to the network.  The PC has airport for the PC downloaded but it will not recognize the network.  Any suggestons please!

    I have an airport extreem network that works with my two MacBooks and a iMAC.  I am having no luck in getting a PC (IBM ThinkPad0 that has the PC airport software to be recognized by the network.  Any suggestions?

    When you introduced the AirPort Extreme, you had a condition where you have two routers in series. The simpliest solution is to reconfigure the downstream router (in this case the Extreme) as a bridge. This will allow the upstream router to provide the required NAT & DHCP services to all network clients regardless of which router they are connected to.
    To reconfigure the Extreme as a bridge, you will use the AirPort Utility. (Note: I will provide the steps for using AirPort Utility v5.x)
    AirPort Utility > Select the AirPort > Manual Setup
    Internet > Internet Connection tab > Connection Sharing = Off (Bridge Mode)

  • How can I get Firefox to remember a password for a site I originally told it not to? The site is not found in the exceptions area of passwords either.

    I initially said for Firefox to NOT remember a password for COZI.com, my online calendar site. Now I would like it to, but cannot find a place to make that happen. I checked under TOOLS/OPTIONS/SECURITY/PASSWORDS. The site is not listed under exceptions either. Is there a way to make this happen?

    I do not see that form in the page source, so it looks that it the login form gets created via JavaScript and the Firefox Password Manager doesn't work in such cases. Form fill may store the name.

  • I have cleared my history, have enabled cookies and third party cookies on Firefox as directed, yet, google will not show my calendar.

    When logged into gmail I cannot view CALENDAR. I have cleared my history and have both COOKIES and THIRD PARTY COOKIES enabled as directed.

    Only when i go to a different browser (like IE) after i clear it , then all that shows up is the pages i visited in IE , that is what bugs me , why is IE browsing history sowing up in Firefox ??
    Basically , i can clear the history in Firefox , and then for a example , go to Craigslist , using IE7 (launching it from a complete different Icon , in other words at that time i never open Firefox) , then after closing out , or even leaving open as it does not seem to matter , i go into Firefox , and hit History , and there is every place i visited in IE7 , on my History in Firefox

  • I need to get rid of the second unwanted page which has icons for facebook etc.

    I've tried this before so this is the second time. I hope someone will reply. I don't want the second page which appears when I start up firefox. It has icons for facebook etc including Telegraph paper. I didn't ask for this and I don;t want it. A response needs to be in plain English with no computerese - I don't do jargon. (I have no idea what an 'add on' is nor do I know what a 'plug inn' is: have i got some of these unwillingly?

  • What is the address of the Firefox homepage that has a search bar? The homepage page addresses I've found don't have a search bar--one like I find on Google

    Does Firefox always use Google to do searches?
    I want to see my default page but "firefox.org" doesn't have a search bar.
    I want to use firefox as my default browser.
    Thanks,
    dee

    By default Firefox normally uses Google for searches, but you have many other choices.
    Also note
    # That the firefox searches all use the same search as that set in the search bar. <br /> That includes the searches from the address bar, and even if you right click highlighted text in a webpage.
    #You can choose the search engine or install new ones <br /> [[Search bar - Easily choose your favorite search engine]] <br /> [[Search the web from the Address Bar]]

  • Bing does not appear in add ons or in the search engine list or control panel, in fact there is no reference to it on my computer, yet still, it has hijacked my search and the normally very useful 'highlight, right click, open search in a new tab'

  • How do I stop firefox from redirecting every page I click on in Google search? No matter what I search for in Google when I click on it Firefox redirects me to some other search, sales, or contest page.

    How do I stop firefox from redirecting every page I click on in Google search? No matter what I search for in Google when I click on it Firefox redirects me to some other search, sales, or contest page. I have a security program running, no maleware, adware, or virus on my pc. Thanks for the help in advance.

    Sounds like a dose of search redirect malware or a redirect virus.

    I'm trying to change the content of a tab. Can't find info anywhere! My new tab used to come up as Google search page. Now it is Bing, and I don't want Bing. I have uninstalled the program that inadvertently put it there but Bing remains. Where is the tab control that hooks me up with Tab content?
