Prevent multiple tabs from loading on login

25-29 tabs of sites I previously opened all try to load when I log in, which slows the opening and ability to use Firefox. How do I prevent that from happening?

You need to change your profile so that on opening you get a pre-chosen home page or a blank page.
The easiest way to do this is with the 'menu bar' visible
Tools -> Options -> General
That leads to a 'startup' dialogue including 'When firefox starts'
Chose the option for a blank page or a home page, instead of previous tabs.
See [[Options window - General panel]]

  • How do I keep multiple tabs from loading all at once when I open Firefox?

    How do I prevent multiple tabs from loading every time I access Firefox? These are open tabs, but I do not want them to open simultaneously every time I want to open a new tab. Then I have to minimize each one in order to access other applications on my desktop. Please advise.

    Tools > Options -> General - Startup = select what you want Firefox to do on startup there
    '''Blank Page''' or '''Homepage''' ''(as long as those pages aren't all your Homepages)'' are alternatives to '''''windows and tabs from last time'''''
    Or as Vivek.Wilfred mentioned, upgrade to Firefox 8.0.1 where you have abother option - Don't load tabs until selected.

  • How can I prevent my tabs from loading the Tuvaro search page?

    I have tried everything listed in the popular articles for this. Firefox shows my home page when I open it (yay!) but new tabs - tabs specifically - still default to the Tuvaro search engine. I have gone into "about:config" and reset the "browser.newtab.url" setting, and it works! But when I close Firefox and open it back up again, the string has been replaced on "Browser.newtab.url" and my tabs default to Tuvaro again. As stated previously, I've uninstalled ALL bloatware from my (brand new) computer, fixed the shortcuts, cleaned my registry, and reset firefox. This one detail just refuses to be fixed.
    Thank you!

    Hello SkyeVeran, check if exist inside the "Programs" in windows, go from Start button > Control Panel > Programs > Uninstall a program or Program and Features > find it and uninstall, also uninstall any other unwanted suspicious program.
    also, check if exist in your extensions, click the 3-bar menu button > Add-ons > Extensions or Appearance > select if exist as an add-on > click Remove button.
    after the above, Reset Firefox
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Troubleshooting Information''.Now, a new tab containing your troubleshooting information should open.
    #At the top right corner of the page, you should see a button that says "Reset Firefox"[[Image:Button reset]]. Click on it.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
    Thank you.

  • How to prevent the User from loading more than one seq file?

    Hi,
    I would like to prevent the tester operator from loading more than one test sequence.  Any ideas how to do it?
    Thanks

    Hi Marty,
    Marty_H wrote:
    Hello mhousel,
    Testexec.exe by default loads the sequence files that were last open when it runs.  It is often desired behavior to have multiple sequence files load automatically. 
    [Mark Housel] Maybe for some but certainly not for me. 
    This should be easily handled by TestStand without any problems.  What do you mean by "chaos ensues"? 
    Certainly Teststand doesn't care a bit how many sequences are open.  But, when my sequences open they initialize HW of the ATE associated with
    that sequence file during the sequenceFileLoad callback.  e.g. I allocate TELNET handles to a terminal
    server that connects to multiple console within the system and als for
    the UUT.
    If a second sequence opens it knows nothing about the other sequence and again tries to open a TELENT session to the same port of the
    terminal server and obviously fails, so my sequence reports that it
    can't properly initialize the ATE HW.  Bad juju!
    Are your sequence files set to run automatically when they are loaded?
    I guess so.  Other than the trick of logging in as the special noExecution user and having special code in my sequence and modified Process Model I have no idea how to prevent a sequence fronm "runnin" when opened.
    If you want to prevent Testexec.exe from loading multiple files, you should be able to close out one of the open files when it loads and that sequence file should not load in the future.  I hope that helps.
    The trick I read somewhere else of modifying the Testexec.uir file to never re-load a sequence file automatically seemes to have covered up solved the problem.
    Thanks,
    Mark

  • How to prevent recalcitrant programs from loading

    After a reboot I have one program that continues to load at start-up even after I am sure it is 1) not in the "login Items" window in preferences, 2) is not set to "open at login," and 3) I have quit the program before re-boot. Can anyone tell me what else I can do to prevent the program from opening at login. I am set as current (and only) user and adminstrator. I have searched Library for clues, but found none.
    Thanks,
    Fred Wolfe

    ...now that i've found it, i'd have to agree with the
    last thread's advice to not worry about it, except
    for one exception: when my app is executed, it checks
    for a settings file. if not present, it initiates
    these settings (asks the user to setup a password,
    etc). if a second instance were loaded, the potential
    exists, depending on which instance were closed
    first, for the user to unknowingly save over their
    initial program setup.
    any suggestions for getting around that?
    Perhaps you can create the settings file as a place holder when the program detects that it isn't there, either empty or with default values. Get the user input and overwrite the place holding file.
    Subsequent executions, or a second execution on the same desktop, "see" the settings file exists and skip that portion.

  • How to prevent multiple users from updating the same data in coherence

    Hi,
    I have a Java Web Application and for data cache am using coherence 3.5. The same data maybe shared by multiple users which maybe in hundreds. Now how do I prevent multiple users from updating the same data in coherence i.e. is there something in coherence that will only allow one user a time to update. If one user is in a process of updating a data in coherence and some other user also tries to update then the second user should get an error.
    Thanks

    I have a question on the same line. How can I restrict someone from updating a cache value when I a process is already working on it. I tried locking the cache key but it does not stop other process to update it , it only does not allow other process to get lock on it.

  • Prevent multiple users from editing/approving the same form SPD 2013,SP 2013

    Hello all, I have a workflow with a to do task, the task is assigned to a group so any of the users in that group can go in and do a quality check on form data and approve it.  How do I prevent multiple users from working on the
    same form? do I just require check out? or is there a way to notify the rest of the group that a user has already started the quality check.

    The "Require Checkout" option is your best bet.  You can also enable the auto checkout on edit option to allow minimal effort on the side of the user.  Other users will then get the error message stating the item is checked out, if they try to
    edit it.
    If you'd like, you could add a workflow to the task list that triggers when something is changed.  That workflow can check if the item is checked out and if so, email the other users assigned to the task.
    I trust that answers your question...
    Thanks

  • Prevent multiple users from updating coherence cache data at the same time

    Hi,
    I have a web application which have a huge amount of data instead of storing the data in Http Session are storing it in coherence. Now multiple groups of users can use or update the same data in coherence. There are 100's of groups with several thousand users in each group. How do I prevent multiple users from updating the cache data. Here is the scenario. User logs-in checks in coherence if the data there and gets it from coherence and displays it on the ui if not get it from backend i.e. mainframe systems and store it in coherence before displaying it on the screen. Now some other user at the same time can also perform the same function and if don't find the data in coherence can get it from backend and start saving it in coherence while the other user is also in the process of saving or updating. How do I prevent this in coherence. As have to use the same key when storing in coherence because the same data is shared across users and don't want to keep multiple copies of the same data. Is there something coherence provides out-of-the-box or what is best approach to handle this scenario.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    actually I believe, that if we are speaking about multiple users each with its own HttpSession, in case of two users accessing the same session attribute in their own session, the actually used cache keys will not be the same.
    On the other hand, this is probably not what you would really like, you would possibly like to share that data among sessions.
    You should probably consider using either read-through caching with the CacheLoader implementor doing the expensive data retrieval (if the data to be cached can be obtained outside of an HTTP container), or side caching with using Coherence locks or entry-processors for concurrency control on the data retrieval operations for the same key (take care of retries in this case).
    Best regards,
    Robert

  • Can't prevent unwanted toolbar from loading in Acrobat Pro 9

    I downloaded an evaluation copy of EverMap AutoBookmark plug-in.  I prefer not to automatically open toolbars that I don't use regularly when first opening Acrobat, but I can't keep the AutoBookmark toolbars from loading, even if I uncheck those particular toolbars.  EverMap support claims that it is a problem in Acrobat.  I have also had the same issue with a free plug-in from the Acrobat for Legal Professionals site. Plug-ins work fine, but I can't prevent the toolbars from loading on startup.
    Anyone else experience this issue?

    Sometimes it is simplest to simply enter the Acrobat folder and move the plugins that are a problem. Just copy then to a backup so you can put them back when you need them. I think that the presence or absence of the plugins is all that Acrobat needs.

  • An error prevented the view from loading

    I'm using SQL Server 2012 Express and I'm building a report with one table.  I dragged and dropped two data set elements into the table that has two columns (Product Name and Product Description).  Both the dataset elements have
    a data type of varchar (50) in SQL Server 2012 Express.  The table with those two elements is the only data I have in Design view.  When I click on Preview, the Preview screen states 'An error prevented the view from loading.'.  This is difficult
    to diagnose, because in the Error List there are '0 Errors', '0 Warnings', and '0 Messages'.  I would like help understanding if there is another error log I can observe to understand the issue, or if there are basic SQL Server 2012 Express Reporting
    Services debugging techniques.  Please help.  Thank you,
    Additionally, when I run the query in SQL Server 2012 Express and Reporting Services Query Designer the query results are correct.
    Also, when I click the start debugging button, the report displays and I can export it to pdf, however the Previous still displays the error.

    Well, funny stuff.  I shut the solution down yesterday, then I booted my computer today and started the solution AND JUST LIKE MAGIC....it works.  I can't explain it.  Persistence pays, that's the answer sometimes.

  • Prevent iPhone Mail from loading images in HTML e-mails

    Hello there!
    Is it possible to prevent iPhone Mail from loading images in e-mails?
    If yes, where can I change those settings?
    Cheers,
    Thomas

    Ian, thanks for your quick reply.
    I just hope Apple is going to build this feature into one of the next firmware updates, since from my point of view this is not only a security concern, but could turn out quite expensive if you are on a bad price plan.

  • Prevent Startup Form from Loading using Command Line Arguments

    Hi there
    I'm developing a VB.NET windows forms application in VS2013.
    The application will have 2 ways of being executed, one being by the user manually and the other being automated by the task scheduler.
    When executed by the task scheduler, command line arguments will be used so that the application is aware that it is being run automatically and not by a user.
    My problem is that I want the startup form to load when run by a user but I don't want it to load when it is run automatically, I just want to execute code.
    Is it possible to prevent the startup form from loading by using the commandline arguments from the MyApplication_Startup event?
    Cheers

    Hi Aureuz,
    >>Is it possible to prevent the startup form from loading by using the commandline arguments from the MyApplication_Startup event
    It is impossible to accomplish it in the MyApplication_Startup event, we can use Form.Shown event:
    #Form.Shown Event
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.form.shown(v=vs.110).aspx
    If we start a form by using the commandline arguments, the count of CommandLineArgs will be above one, if so, use Me.Hide() method to hide this form.
    Private Sub Form1_Shown(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Shown
    Dim args As String() = Environment.GetCommandLineArgs()
    If args.Count > 1 Then
    Me.Hide()
    Else
    Me.Show()
    End If
    End Sub
    You can also uncheck "Enable application framework" on the project properties application tab and select your startup object to a module object:
    Module Module1
    Sub Main()
    Dim args As String() = Environment.GetCommandLineArgs()
    If args.Count > 1 Then
    'Run your background code
    Else
    Dim f As New Form1
    f.ShowDialog()
    End If
    End Sub
    End Module

  • How can I prevent a tab from chaning into a new window by itself

    When I play a video, and open another tab, the tab with the video will sometimes change into a whole new window. I don't click anything specific to make the tab change into a window, it will just do it a few minutes after I open the new tab. Does anyone have a clue on how to prevent this. Thank you!

    Make sure that you do not drag a tab in the browser window.<br />
    Current Firefox versions have a feature called tear-off tabs.<br />
    You can detach a tab from the current window and open it in a new window by dragging a tab in the browser window.<br />
    You can drag that tab back to the tab bar in the original window to undo that detaching.

  • Preventing Desktop Mananger from loading at startup

    Hi
    I am running Vista and the latest version of BB Desktop Manager on my laptop.
    Sometimes, I need to be up and running quickly, but DM takes ages to load on my laptop and prevents other programs from starting too.
    Is there a way to set DM so that it only starts when I want it to - not when Windows starts?
    Any help appreciated!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    This option comes while installing Desktop Manager. You need to modify installing option from Add/Remove programs of you computer. There you'll find Modify option and then go to Repair Desktop Manager. Uncheck the start up option.
    Another way is modifying Startup process of the windows by using msconfig command.
