On startup firefox loads yesterdays pages

Several tabs from previous session appear. They can be deleted of course but it is irritating, if one is in a hurry

Hello,
If you would, please try the following setting change.
Firefox => Preferences => General => Startup ~ "When Firefox Starts" ~ "Show my windows and tabs from last time"
This should be able to fix your issue.
Cheers,

Firefox loads a page twice

Since first version of firefox 3 and still now, firefox loads somes pages twice. It is so anoying that I have to use internet explorer to browse some websites (specially on my intranet for maintenance operations).
I have notice that the bug occurs on pages that make a few seconds to load (like when updating database).
Is there anyway to desactivate or fix this bug/feature?
Thanks

To stop F/fox 3.6.12 loading pages twice, disable Adblock+ and Adblock + uploader in Add-ons. Worked for me.

Safari and Firefox loading wrong pages since 10.6.5 update

I have an issue on two completely separate Macs since upgrading them to 10.6.5. After a few hours use, links within some web pages, in Safari or Firefox, will resolve to very random places. For example I click a news article link on the Yahoo home page, and it takes me repeatedly to a monster.com job listing page. Or if I am in Yahoo mail and I click Calendar, it takes me right back to yahoo mail and does not open the calendar page. Sometimes I can click a link in the bookmarks bar like the one for www.yahoo.com and it gives me a page not found error. Totally repeatable once this behaviour starts - if the wrong page load problem starts on any given link, it repeatedly goes to that wrong page every time that link is clicked. Tried using Firefox as well as Safari - same exact bugs occur there once this behavior starts. So its not just Safari!
If I run Cocktail and run the weekly script, the problem usually gets instantly fixed, for a little while, then it eventually comes back.
It appears that some cache, perhaps the whatis or lookup databases (since those get rebuilt in the weekly script), are getting corrupted in 10.6.5, such that browser links get resolved to the incorrect addresses.
Happens on my MacPro Quadcore i7 as well as a friends MacBook Pro 17, 2009 unibody. Both started showing this problem on both firefox AND safari after the 10.6.5 update. Have tried resetting Safari, rebooting, and using them on a different wireless network, to no avail.
Help!!!!

Hi Jim
test in a New User Account
& if that's no different - try out different dns
say Open dns
or more reliably for me lately ( & less annoying when a site doesn't exist, or is mistyped )
Google public dns

Why won't Firefox load some pages correctly?

On my everydayhealth.com site where I keep my fitness journal, suddenly the graphics are gone and all I have is a page with text and numbers on it. After it switches to this text page, at the very top it will say "Location TemplateTop not found in page 40811."
On another site I shop all the time, sephora.com, when I would click on a makeup area I want to go it would give me an oops page and tell me I have ventured into some unknown beauty territory.
I thought NoScript was causing this so I disabled it. Since doing that my Sephora site seems to be working. And initially my diet journal seemed to come back too. But then the journal page again flipped to this text and numbers page with that message at the top. Sephora seems to still be working.

More specifically, after logging in, go to the support forum at (https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions), then you should see the "My Contributions" link.
Despite their similar names, Java and JavaScript are two completely separate things. Java is used for Java applets, and JavaScript is used for interactivity in pages. NoScript prevents JavaScript (and Java) code from executing in pages unless its explicitly allowed.
JavaScript in particular is a technology that many web developers rely on, and expect browsers to have enabled. While developers should properly handle the use case where someone has JavaScript disabled, many don't, either because they don't want to spend a bunch of time coding for what probably amounts to 0.1% of their users (most of whom will allow JavaScript on pages they trust), they simply forgot to handle it, or their site would be impossible without it.
I'm not familiar enough with NoScript to walk you through it, but what you need to do is add exceptions for the sites that aren't working properly. Try their [http://noscript.net/faq FAQ ]or [http://forums.informaction.com/viewforum.php?f=3 forum].
Again, this problem almost definitely has nothing to do with Firefox itself--you should get in touch with the owners of the sites in question, or with the NoScript folks.

Why firefox loads its page slow during browsing ?

Firefox need to add web page compressor proxy or need to lend 'Opera Turbo' web page compressor technology from Opera Browser to make its Browser mutch faster than Google Chrome, IE11 .

Hi pritamhazra,
As we appreciate your feedback, we recommend that you check out how to improve this.
Currently if you would like some tips on how to make Firefox faster, we have some tweaks suggested in the Knowledge base that can improve in your experience. Better yet, the new release is coming out tomorrow when Firefox 28 is released.

Firefox loads blank page off google search only on some stes

google search results are found ok, some links load to website other selected links load a blank screen, obout 25% of sites fail to load, internet explorer browser WILL load sites that fail on Firefox.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
 To Enable SafeMode 
*You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
*''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: "Firefox > Quit Firefox"; Linux: "Firefox/File > Quit")

Firefox loading wrong page when searching from default home page

Hi,
When I try a search from the default home page (about:home) in Firefox, instead of bringing up google search results I get sent to the following page
http://search.tuxendo.com
Has anyone come across this before?

This reply by cor-el was a partial solution to the problem. But there was a further problem. Ask.com had a .exe program installed in my computer along with a program I had installed (Webroot anti-virus and Spy Sweeper), and this .exe program would keep restoring ask.com as the default search engine after I removed it. I had to use the "remove program" function of the Control Panel to remove the .exe program (called Webroot Ask.exe or something close to that) to finish the job.
So to dispose of the problem, follow the advice above from cor-el, and then go to the Control Panel, track down some form of ask.exe, and remove it.

Why is Firefox not loading my pages at startup anymore?

FF 12.0. Why now all of a sudden is FF not loading my pages at startup. It loads the "pinned" pages, but NONE of the other ones I had open. This is happening at every FF startup now. Really, this was the ONLY feature that was keeping me with FF. The performance has gone dramatically down, and the problems more frequent ever since 4 was released. I am getting to the end of my rope with this now. Any ideas?

No previous session option, it is grayed out.
I did try the file exit way to close, and it brought the tabs back up. Is that a change in 12? Not good, we don't always or even often get the chance to close down like that. It was never like that in the past. It did not matter if you hit the X, or ended the process in the task manager... the tabs ALWAYS came back up. It was a feature that nobody else had working in that matter at the time. Honestly, it is the only reason I have been using FF on a regular basis for the past couple of years. Now I have to worry about losing my tabs when it is not closed down "properly", or spend a hour looking through the history and trying to figure out what I had open.

When I startup Firefox it always loads a page on top of the page I don't know how to remove

Whenever I start up Firefox, it loads a page from a survey site. This page keeps loading on top of the pages I open firefox with. I have checked through cookies and about:config trying to find something that might trigger this so I can remove it. Any ideas would be helpful.

Not all locales come with a dictionary installed due to licensing reasons. 
If you do not have the en-US locale then check that you have a dictionary installed (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and selected.
You can see which dictionary is selected if you right-click in a text area and open the Languages submenu. 
You can open the "Add Dictionaries" link to install a dictionary if you do not have one. 
Make sure that [X] "Check Spelling" in the right-click context menu has a tick.

I downloaded firefox 3.6.13 and now when moving through sites it will unexpectedly not be able to load a page within a site. How do I fix this problem or revert to a previous version of firefox?

The first few sessions Firefox seemed to be running great with improved speed. Yesterday, when I opened Firefox it could not open my homepage even though I checked for my internet connection ... my email service was working perfectly. I rebooted the computer and started Firefox and the homepage opened fine. I then visited an online newspaper site opened from my bookmarks. I was able to read one or two articles on different pages, but then when I selected another page in this site, Firefox was not able to access it (just keep trying to make a connection to the page). I restarted Firefox and went into an online banking site, again through a bookmark. Again after successfully accessing several different pages in the site Firefox was unable to connect to a requested page.
Later in the day I restarted Firefox, entered the banking site and successfully completed my transaction. Visited several other sites and had no problems, then again Firefox could not load a page.
This problem has continued today when looking at the online paper.
I would like either a fix to this problem, or to return to the previous version of Firefox.

Google Toolbar Options, in the Search tab, make sure that '''Enable the Google new tab page''' is check-marked. If that doesn't fix it for you, see this for support information about the Google Toolbar.

Or visit the Google Toolbar forum.

Firefox no longer loads home page or deletes cookies. I have repeatedly checked both settings and they are correct. It always goes to the last page I was on when I closed the browser ..

Got new Firefox version yesterday and now I can't find the circular arrow to click to refresh a web page.

I have Windows 7 64bit
Longtime Firefox user
Yesterday I downloaded the latest Firefox browser
One of the things the old version had at the top of the page was a
circle arrow that I could click to refresh a website screen without
restarting the website and getting to that screen again.
It is probably still available if you could help me to find it.

Firefox 4 uses a combined Stop/Reload/Go button that is positioned at the right end of the location bar. 
During the page load process it shows as a Stop button and after the loading has finished the button is changed to a Reload button. 
If you type in the location bar then that button becomes a Go button. 
Middle-click the Reload button to duplicate the current tab to a new tab.

Suddenly my firefox loads SO slowly. I launch firefox first and then Safari and Safari loads pages before firefox enen begins too. Also a LOT more adds show pages I looked at previously.

Several weeks ago Firefox suddenly was / is very slow to load all pages. I launch Firefox. Wait. Launch Safari. Safari loads page while I am still waiting for Firefox.
Why?

Do you use NoScript? There's possibly an issue with NoScript where certain settings cause Firefox to load HTTPS pages on startup very slowly.
