Since upgrading to 3.6.13, Firefox no longer saves and restores windows when I quit.

I am running OS 10.5.8 on MacBook Firefox 3.6.13. Periodically I have a problem with Verizon e-mail in that it wont accept an address when composing. This is fixed by quitting Firefox. (This problem predates 3.6.13.) It is a nuisance to lose all windows when I quit Firefox, but that is the only way I have found to fix the e-mail problem.

I'll try to make this clear. I USED to be able to left click on a hyper link and the hyper link would open in a NEW tab. Now for some unknown reason the hyper link by default opens in the same tab (window). I have to right click the hyper link in order for it to open in a NEW tab. (Yes, my 'tools'> 'options'> 'tabs' are set to "open new windows in a new tab." (Please no answers telling me to get rid of the Ask toolbar because I don't have one.) Thank you.

  • When a website launches a new window to enter information, Firefox no longer automatically closes the window when you click the submit button. Why?

    For example, when I create a message in my autoresponder service and want to attach an image a new window opens up so I can enter the details of the image (url, position, alt text). When I click the Save button, the information is captured but the window remains open and I have to manually close it.
    Firefox used to close the window automatically.

    YES!! Thank you jscher2000! You sir are a legend. Thanks for this, changed the newtaburl in about:config, totally worked. Nope, never saw it happening! Speedy machine this one :P Yep, that change completely sorted the issue, just opened about 741 new tabs through the shortcut on my mouse just to celebrate. Thanks guys who helped, no thanks those who didn't.

  • Since upgrading to 8.0 I can no longer print from Mapquest Classic. I an from IE. How can I fix that? ALSO I don't like the new layout. How can I go back to my pervious version?

    Since upgrading to 8.0 I can no longer print from Mapquest Classic. It's not a Mapquest problem it's a Firefox problem as I am able to print using IE. I haven't encountered any other sites problems yet but I'm sure it's to come if I don't get this fixed. I need to be able to print. How can I fix this?
    I also do not like the new layout. How can I go back to my previous version?

    What precisely do you mean by deleting the podcast app from both the phone and Mac? I have deleted the podcast app from my phone but on my Mac in iTunes->iPhone->Apps it shows up albeit with a button labelled "Install". I've resynced 3 times and when I try to access my Podcast playlist in the Music app, I still get a message telling me that podcasts have moved to the Podcast app. I'm really sick of some of the changes Apple  has made to their software.

  • Since upgrading my iphone 4 to IOS6, apps keep opening and closing on their own

    Since upgrading my iphone 4 to IOS6, apps keep opening and closing on their own and the wrong ones open when another is pressed. I've tried a full reset but still the same thing...HELP PLEASE :-(

    I'm not familiar with the Belkin cover, but you could try removing the cover and reboot the iPad and see how that goes.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    Hi Everybody,
    I use an Epson Stylus Office BX320FW printer with my IMac.  Since upgrading OSX, I have lost the ability to print and scan.  I have downloaded printer drivers from both Epson and Apple.  I am using the printer in wifi mode but can not get it print or scan.  How do I uninstall the Epson software and start all over again?

    Not using any mouse pad, I have a very smooth desktop. But I just tried to use a sheet of A4 printing paper, but no result, the problem persisted.
    Someone on this forum suggested, that USB3 may interfere with the magic mouse.
    I have 2 LaCie HDD's about 70 cm away from the mouse, I use them on Thunderbolt. But in operation or not - the result is the same, the mouse plays up! Just now I was clicking the desktop and the mouse created a new folder!!
    Thanks for the advice, Bee
    Cheers, Gerd

  • Since upgrading to itunes 11.1.4.62 my iPad and Ipod will not sync

    Since upgrading to iTunes 11.1.4.62 my iPad and iPod are no longer recognized by iTunes when plugged into my Windows 8.1 PC? I have re-downloaded itunes and re-intalled/repaired the program but still will recognize the two. This has never been an issue before have always sync the two and the only change has been the most recent upgrade of itunes?

    I had to set up an admin user account on my pc  after trying to restore my phone after ios 7 nearly broke my pc. I used the admin account to delete all apple stuff as instructed and installed 11.1.4. Hate the new look and all that was left was some old stuff i had bought on itunes.Anything less than about 2 years old and my extensive vinyl library i had uploaded all gone. i back up every week. i found some music in  the recycle bin and it took hours to restore that but i was still missing loads. I plugged in my 3rd gen touch. All my  sync settings were gone and it would not let me change them, it was all unticked so sync wiped my touch. i tried again but still wouldn't let me select anything and said duplicate names were specified, my options were to  erase the touch, overwrite the library on the pc or cancel. So a disaster. Then I logged in under my usual user id where i had failed to download the new itunes and my old library still existed - shame i cannot back up or sync anymore here either. The only thing i could do was restore my wiped touch as i still had a back up left here. whenever i plug in i get the duplicate names specified message erase or cancel and i can't change the settings which are all unticked here too. I think itunes can see my admin account library and my usual account library and can see they are not the same and this is the duplicate names problem
    i would like to know how i can get my music out of itunes safely on to my computer so i can play it on something other than itunes.
    Unfortunately my iphone is on orange so i am cursed with that too and their latest service issues have destroyed my battery. I can't get a new phone though becuase i won't be able to restore to get my stuff on to new phone becuase of this duplicate names error.
    Apple have really messed things up for me - please can you tell me how to get my music out in a format that will play on other players and i suppose i will just have to write off the £50 credit i have in tunes but i cannot carry on with these disasters and apples indifference

  • HT1338 I have an HP Printer/scanner, and since upgrading to Mountain Lion I can no longer scan on my HP.  HP tells me that I can get an upgrade app from 'Apple Software Upgrade' .  Does anyone know how to do this?

    I have an HP Printer/scanner, and since upgrading to Mountain Lion I can no longer scan on my HP.  HP tells me that I can get an upgrade app from 'Apple Software Upgrade' .  Does anyone know how to do this?

    HP couldn't find its own apps with both hands and a flashlight.
    As of Lion all scanning functions are incorporated natively in OS X. You can scan three ways:
    Use Preview: File > Import from scanner
    Use Image Capture
    (Preview and Image Capture are both in your Applications folder.)
    System Preferences > Print & Scan. Select your HP and use the Scan tab.
    If you have HP's "Image Zone" software installed, you no longer need it and it no longer works anyway.

  • Since upgrading to mountain lion my iphone no longer wirelessly connects to my itunes via wi-fi... is there a remedy for this?  thanks

    since upgrading to mountain lion my iphone no longer wirelessly connects to my itunes via wi-fi... is there a remedy for this?  thanks

    I am also having the same problem since upgrading to mountain lion. The symptom is strange.
    If I connect my iPhone/iPad using cable first, uncheck and then check the wifi sync option, and then disconnect the cable, iTunes will still be able to see the devices through wifi. But if I restart my computer, it will fail again. And I am tired of repeating this exercise.
    Anyone has the same problem?

    If you want.
    or maybe install Snow Leopard using the disc it came on with my Mac and just set it up from a Time Machine Backup on my external hard drive (since it works under SL)?
    Did you install Lion on an empty partition, or did you upgrade Snow Leopard?  If you upgraded, I'd not recommend erasing it, since your backups are apparently gone.  It's doubtful Snow Leopard will recognize them. 
    It's not just backups on the drive either, there are other important things on there, so why won't they show?
    Mixing Time Machine backups and other data is not a good idea.  See #3 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.  It sounds like the whole disk is corrupted.
    I just really don't understand how this happened. Could it not be an issue with WD because they haven't issued firmware to support Lion yet?
    If this is a simple external HD, connected by USB or FireWire, no, unless you installed some of WD's software on it.  That shouldn't prevent it from being seen at all, but anything's possible.

  • Since upgrading from Mavericks to Yosemite Mail, Spotlight,Mission Control and App-Store don´t work correctly. Is it possible to return to Mavericks?

    Since upgrading from Mavericks to Yosemite Mail, Spotlight, Mission Control and App-Store don´t work correctly. Is it possible to return to Mavericks?

    If you have an external drive with an OS X Time Machine backup, then do restore of your last backup. If you have an external drive  with a bootable clone of your previous system, you can boot to that clone and re-clone the OS X on your external drive back to your Mac's internal drive.
    If you do not have either of these available, then the reverting/restoring process becomes much more complicated and involves purchasing an external drive and backing up your current system to that drive, then erasing, reformatting your hard drive and now your only options to installng an OS X version is doing a clean install of OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard, then upgrading, again, to either OS X 10.7 Lion or 10.8 Mountain Lion. OS X 10.9 Mavericks is no longer available for download and Apple has not made OS X 10.9 Mavericks available in any other form to be able to redownload and install.
    Maybe it would be better to explain in detail your issues with Yosemite to see if any of us here can help you with your difficulties.
    I am not running or using Yosemite, so I cannot help you with your Yosemite issues,
    There are others here who can help you with Yosemite.
    Good Luck.

    since upgrading to 10.7.4 my 21.5 inch imac the window is too large for the display. How can I make it fit?

    Some possibilities:
    If you have a Magic Mouse do Control+stroke downwards on the mouse.
    Check System Preferences>Displays is set to the correct resolution
    Check System references>Accesability and make sure Zoom isn't turned on.

    Firefox have some problems and it block when is opening hotmail, in my laptop always have that problem, so i need check my email using another programs...that problem is in my laptop or it´s a problem of navigator??

    I know you can't help with my Yahoo problem, however, apparently at some time in the past I have went to the Sync and tried to figure it out on both my laptop and my desktop, because I have the long snyc key information. However, when I go to try to sync both computers I never get the box to enter that key on either one. That is my problem. So should I try and get a new sync key and see if that works.

    If you're using a USB hub take it out of the loop. Plug directly in to a USB port on the system. If you are using a front mounted USB port, try one on the back instead. If this doesn't correct it, try shutting off any firewall and antivirus software and turn off User Access Control.

  • Since upgrading to 4.0, get "Firefox has stopped working" message constantly.

    Just upgraded to 4.o yesterday and now it constantly crashes. I can navigate no more than 2-3 pages before I get the message "Firefox has stopped working" and the session shuts down. How can I go back to a previous version of Firefox? Or do I just revert back to using IE, which works fine?
