Remove old tab start up from old firefox

A few years ago, I created a tab to a website, to start-up with Firefox, that no longer exists. How can I permanently delete that tab so that it doesn't keep opening at Firefox start-up?

Your System Details list shows that you have preferences that were used in previous Firefox versions and that are no longer supported in the current Firefox release.
*browser.tabs.onTop: False
*security.warn_viewing_mixed: False
You can reset such prefs on the <b>about:config</b> page via the right-click context menu to the default value.
If you want the tabs on bottom then you can look at the Classic Theme Restorer extension.
You can look at the Classic Theme Restorer extension to restore some functionality that was lost with the arrival of the Australis style in Firefox 29.
*Classic Theme Restorer: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/
*You can check out the settings of the CTR extension via its Options/Preferences button on the "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" page.
*You can find extra toolbar buttons and more toolbar settings in Customize (3-bar Firefox menu button > Customize)

  • Need to Remove the tabs group Title from browser window title

    When I use a saved tab group, which means I named that tab group in FF 5,''' the name of the tab group appears at the top of the browser along with the title of the web page I am viewing'''. Not good, I need to remove that tab group title from the browser window title, so I am only seeing the title of the webpage, and nothing from the tab group. How do I do that?
    thanks

  • Is there a way to completely disable tabs (removing all tab related menu options) for firefox 10?

    Is there a way to completely disable tabs (removing all tab related menu options) for firefox 10. I hate tabs and recent changes to the menus make incorrect selection of 'open in new tab' when what I want is 'open in new window' a common and unwelcome occurrence.

    You can hide menu items and move them up / down in the menu with the Menu Editor extension. <br />

  • Firefox update does not complete but has removed old firefox

    If I end my firefox session and restart - I get an auto update message and it starts automatically - after several minutes I try to start firefox and the target has been deleted - firefox is gone - I downloaded the latest version from mozilla and it works until the next startup. I am running WIN7 and FIREFOX 29
    I have reproduced this twice so far so whatever is going wrong is consistent

    HI pladfirefox
    Please see: [[Firefox just updated - why is it asking me to update again?]]

  • Cannot change "Start Page" from the FireFox Google Search Page.

    Under "tools"/"options"/"general" I've changed my homepage to Bing.com & designated this as my "start page" however whenever I open a new tab the FireFox Google Search Page always comes up and I must click the "home" icon in order to get my Bing Home Page to load. This is a step I would rather skip. What must I do to get FireFox to open immediately in my designated home page?

    The home page is just what opens when you click the Home icon on the toolbar, and when you start Firefox, provided that under Options → General you've set "When Firefox starts: Show my home page".
    * [[Startup, home page and download settings]]
    When you open a new tab, you normally get a grid of tiles listing recently visited sites. (From Firefox 31 onward, there's also a search box, but it uses whatever search engine you've selected in the search bar on the navigation toolbar)
    * [[New Tab Page – show, hide and customize top sites]]
    # [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/custom-new-tab/ Install Custom New Tab].
    # Open the Add-ons Manager (Ctrl+Shift+A; Mac: Command+Shift+A), then the Extensions category.
    # Next to Custom New Tab, click the Options button.
    # Enter whatever URL you want to open in each new tab, and make sure "Place focus in URL bar" is not checked.
    Strictly speaking, you don't need the above add-on to choose what opens in each new tab. But Custom New Tab allows you to decide whether focus should go to the address bar. Without the add-on, it does, so you have to first click the search box on the web page before you can start typing your search query.

  • How do I make pinned tabs start everytime I open Firefox 4 on Mac??

    When I start up my Macbook, I want to have Firefox 4 always load up the 4 pinned tabs from prior session but I'm not sure how to do that. Help?

    But I don't want the theme to change, just want the ability to resize the tabs.

  • Removing a Mozilla "Valentine Persona" from the firefox web browser

    Email from Mozilla for a free Valentines day Persone. This it installed onto the top of my browser. How can I remove it?

    Hi Cavey,
    This pretty easy actually. Just go to ''Tools > Add ons > Appearance'' and change it back to the default profile. You can find more information in the [[Using themes with Firefox]] Knowledge Base article.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • I don't have a Firefox Tab. Instead I still have remnants of the old Firefox tabs in my upper left corner (file, edit, view, history, etc.). I also don't have a home button or a private browsing botton in my toolbar, do I need to install these my self?

    My operating system is windows vista. I update my Adobe plugins to be current. What else should I do?

    ''volleydogt wrote:''
    It had a tool bar at the top with File, Edit, View, History, bookmarks, etc.
    Right-click an empty area of the tab bar and check "Menu Bar".
    Your bookmarks are accessible from the Bookmarks button on the navigation toolbar. It's the wide button on the right side of the address bar with a star to its left.
    Your history is accessible from the History button under the ≡ Menu Button panel. You can right-click an empty area of the tab bar and choose Customize, then drag the History button onto the navigation toolbar if you like (that's the area with the Back/Forward buttons and the address bar).
    If you'd like to completely revert Firefox's appearance, install the Classic Theme Restorer add-on and restart Firefox when prompted.

    I'm also having this problem. I'm using Flash Builder 4.6, AIR 3.4 and I've made a DLL (e.g. ExtensionDll.dll) which needs to call functions in another DLL (e.g. DllUsedByExtensionDll.dll) . I've made sure my ANE is working with the ExtensionDll.dll already, so there are no issues with my actionscript code or my ANE packaging or my DLL compilation. However, once I start calling functions from the other DLL, it starts throwing me Error #3500. Even if I call this function (e.g. abc()) in ExtensionDll.dll, but I never actually use the function from actionscript, and I call another function (e.g. def()) from actionscript, the Error #3500 still appears, so it does not seem to depened on the whether the code is used or not.
    It's similar to this problem.

    Does anyone have a solution or at least a way to debug this?

  • Resetting / Removing Old URLs From Address Bar When Manually Typing In URLs

    How do you Reset / Remove Old URLs From Address Bar When Manually Typing In URLs. You know, when you start to tpye in www. and about 2000 URLs visted in your life, and past life, appear in a list. It's annoying as all heck, and since it's in alphabetical order it's always throwing in the first one in the list... 1800flowers in my case. Isn't there a way to reset this or something? Or better, to turn it off? I've already tried emptying cache and clearing history. I also removed the .plist files as well. What would happen if I did a reinstall of Safari?

    Hello Jonny Apple Seed
    The way to clear the address bar is to reset Safari, under Safari menu,
    this will also clear,
    "Resetting Safari clears the history, empties the cache, clears the Downloads window, and removes all cookies. It also removes any saved user names and passwords or other AutoFill data and clears Google search entries.
    In addition, any open windows are closed and a new window opens. The new window has a new history for the Back and Forward buttons and the SnapBack buttons". From Safari Help
    A reinstalled Safari will just come to be the same, after a while. Not worth it in my opinion. The address bar will not be completely empty.
    Hth some.

  • FIREFOX 4 IS STARTING SLOW AND WORKS SLOW MY PC IS NEW..OLD FIREFOX VERSION DIDN'T DO THIS

    I don't have to have any windows open to have version 4 start slow!
    I can play a game of solitaire while waiting! My old version didn't ever do that! It has just been since I upgraded to 4. I have a newer PC...running windows 7!

    yes it is working faster but the link you gave me for getting my cookies and all my stuff from the old profile is a bit confusing!
    Where it says: 4. Open the new Firefox profile folder
    Where is it?
    I opened my old firefox. went under Application Basics. clicked on open containing folder. That opened. Now how do I open my new profile folder? I am sure I am missing something. I just can't figure out what! I have all my old bookmarks. I just need the cookies and saved passwords. I am still confused on the open new profile folder and right click and paste. Where is my new folder. Is it after Open Containing Folder just like on the old profile? The window that opens up when you do that? I just don't want to be adding to it if that is not where I go!!!

  • I have a old firefox data file from a computer transfer i did and i want to get all the bookmarked sites i had orginized how can i do this?

    so a while back i transfered my old computer files to my new computer and when i did that i tried getting my firefox books marks added when i did it it just made a file old firefox data. i went into it it has the books marks but the problem is it isnt really readable kinda jumbled up and i wanna know if i can import it to my current one or somehow get it organized so i can at least see them apart or on a note pad just each bookmark on its own line? i added a picture of what it looks like

    Backing up and restoring your Profile should have included your bookmarks.
    https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/back-and-restore-information-firefox-profiles
    https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/recovering-important-data-from-an-old-profile
    That looks like a JSON bookmarks backup file, from 11-01-2012. Did you try '''restoring''' that file?
    https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/restore-bookmarks-from-backup-or-move-them#w_using-a-bookmark-backup-file
    Never messed with JSON files other than viewing them on a few occasions out of curiosity. There are no line breaks which make them very difficult to read.
    As far as working with that file in {like} NotePad goes:
    A. use Find / Search for each indecent of a '''"uri"''' string, then "copy and paste" the uri into another text file, and then move on to the next "uri" string.
    B. use a text program where a filter can be set for the "uri" field in the JSON file for a line break or to "scrape out" the "uri"s only for display or export to a list of uri's.
    Or try using an online JSON editor like this, to try to display only the "uri" field.

  • HT203756 How can I remove 'old' or 'incomplete' backups from iCloud?

    How can I remove 'old' or 'incomplete' backups from iCloud? 
    When I attempted, the iPhone 6+ message asked if I wanted to remove ALL of the backups... without giving me the option of selecting the specific one I wanted to remove.
    I had performed 'backups' of my old iPhone, but, when I tried to RESTORE to the REPLACEMENT iPhone, at least one of the iCloud backups shows 'incomplete'.  There was no 'error' on the original iPhone...when it 'failed' to complete the backup.
    Now, I would like to 'clear up' the 'storage' on the iCloud, but am unable to select specific ones. I can either keep all instances or shut off iCloud Backup which would, according to the message, remove/delete ALL of the BACKUPS.
    This shouldn't be this difficult.....

    I too wondered how you remove apps from iCloud.  Judging by the quantity of questions, comments, suggestions and replies (some rather rude) there is a clear need for Apple to make their literature a lot clearer.  The page describing what iCloud backs up refers to "app data" as an item which is backed up.  To the uniniated this might mean the app program but it seems not.  The app is "bought" via iTunes or the App Store and details of your purchase (free or otherwise) is held there separately on the server.
    It would be nice however to be able to remove the reference to junk I have downloaded and decided I don't want so that it doesn't appear on the purchased apps listing!  Apple please note this.
    It must be remembered that Apple products come pitifully supported by manuals "out of the box" on the assumption that it is so easy to use the product that no explanation is needed.  They forget that most buyers of Apple products (me included) don't know (and don't want to know) how they work, so when something is not obvious they are required to plough through Lord knows how many web pages of "knowledge base" material until they find an answer.
    All I can add is that it is worth spending time reading the multiitude of discussion threads before asking the question yet again...

  • How do I remove old applications from my new Macbook Pro that came over when the data on my iMac was migrated to the new computer.

    How do I remove old applications from my new Macbook Pro that were part of the data that was migrated over from my older iMac?
    Thanks

    If the applications were originally drag and drop installations you can simply drag them to the trash and empty. If they were installed by an installer there should be an uninstaller included. If you're not sure you should check with the software developer for instructions. In this case Google can be your friend.
