Since upgrading to FF v4, every time I open a "new window", all other instances of FF windows open, how can I keep this from happening?

Since I started using FireFox version 4, every time I open a "new window", all other instances of FireFox windows open up. This is annoying as it often covers up instances I am currently using with instances that I don't wish to use right now. I can't seem to find a way to keep this behavior from occurring.

Try go to '''about:config''' search for '''browser.startup.homepage''' change its value to:
'''about:home''' - default page<br>
'''about:blank''' - blank page<br>
'''url''' - a page that you want

    When using my new nano 7 with nike+, my music stops after the 30 minute voice alert even though I have set my run/workout for over 30 minutes.  It also cancels/deletes that run/workout.  This has happened several times.  How can I keep this from happening?

    If possible I would arrange for a good service center to go over it. Hopefully they have a variety of parts in stock. They can test and verify all is working. The previous attempts are based on guesses by the person at the other end of the phone without diagnostic tests to assess the culprit. It is extremely unlikely for a webcam to fail & for it & a Mic to fail together should be an indicator to a good technician it is something else. EG Motherboard
    Take it to a servicing dealer and wait for it.

  • My selector panel collapses with every change or adjustment - even when I have the element choosen in the code - how do I keep this from happening?

    I first choose the relevant source in the code and then open it in the Selector panel area of the CSS Designer.  But once I attempt to make changes the Selector panel collapses and goes blank after the first change.  Then I have to reselect the appropriate source in the Sources panel, reselect in the Selectors panel and make another change. And so on...  What am I doing wrong?

    Mine doesn't show anything in the CSS Designer panel when I make a selection in Code Vew. It will only pop up the css set for a given element if I select that element in Design View first. If I drill down using the Sources and Selectors sub windows in the CSS Designer panel itself, it works the same in both. I pretty much never use it, but it doesn't do what you're explaining in my version of DWCC, so I'd guess you may have some slight corruption in the program.
    Unless, does it make a difference if you have Live View turned on or not?
    You could try clearing the program cache/personal config folder: Deleting a corrupted cache file
    Or restoring preferences if the cache doesn't do the trick: Restore preferences | Dreamweaver CS4, CS5, CS5.5, CS6http://helpx.adobe.com/dreamweaver/kb/restore-preferences-dreamweaver-cs4-cs5.html

  • Since downloading Yosemite, Safari will close itself out at times and I loose all the pages I had open.  How can I stop this from happening?

    Since downloading Yosemite, Safari will close itself out, when I reopen it all of my pages are gone.  How do I stop this from happening?

    But if iit won't stay open, then it's quitting unexpectedly which is the same as a crash.
    There has to be a reason for that which a crash report should reveal.

  • Every once in a while, letters stop working on my keyboard. I have to restart to get them to work again. Happens about once a week. Why and how do I keep this from Happening?

    Every once in a while, letters stop working on my keyboard. I have to restart to get them to work again. Happens about once a week. Why and how do I keep this from Happening? An example is: I try to type Super Excited and the U, E and P won't work. But once I restart, all the letters work.

    It could be an accumulation of all sorts of bits of info and depending on the last time you cleared the system cache either manually or via a factory reset on that phone you might find a difference there after doing so with many other system caches.
    Clearing the application cache removes temporary files and frees up memory - your personal settings or information remain intact.
    Be sure you clear only the application cache and not the application data.
    From the home screen, tap Apps.
    Scroll to and tap Settings.
    Tap More.
    Tap Application manager.
    Swipe left to view the All tab.
    Scroll to and tap an application.
    Tap Clear cache.
    You've now cleared the application cache.

    You can share the same Apple ID in
    Settings > iTunes & App Store > Apple ID: here
    But for all other Apple services like:
    FaceTime, iMessage, iCloud, etc, one of you should use a different Apple ID.

  • Every time I add a page to my documents, my buttons reset. How can I prevent this from happening?

    I am using InDesign CS5. I have a very large document (698 pages) that has several buttons saved on each page.
    I used the automated Table of Contents feature to create all of the destinations. Using the buttons dialog box, I select the specific page the document needs to go to.
    I need to add pages to this document, but every time I add a page, all of the bookmarks default to the very first link in the list. How can I get prevent this from happening?
    If I can't stop this from happening because I used the TOC feature to create the destinations, how can I quickly and easily move forward to add pages to the document. These pages will be inserted throughout the document.
    Thank you.

    Put on shoe.
    Take one shoe-lace in each hand.
    Lay them across each other.
    Then place one of them under the first.
    You now have the first fasting.
    To make the loops, again take each shoe-lace in each hand.
    Fold one of them double into a loop and hold the loop with the other hand.
    Take the second shoe-lace and fold it around the loop and insert the second loop in the space you just created under the first loop.
    Fasten the loops by dragging them in opposite directions.
    How did I do? Clear enough? (English is not my first language by the way).

  • I upgraded to iTunes 11 and I got all of the songs on my families' other computers. How can I stop this from happening?

    I upgraded to iTunes 11 and I got all of the songs on my families' other computers. We all share the same AppleID, that's why this happened in the first place; but, I do not want their songs on my computer, how can I disable this without deleting the songs forever or making a new AppleID?

    I did not upgrade to the newest version of Itunes on my PC.  I just now went to my Library were Music is listed. Under that is Movies, TV Shows, ItunesU, etc.  When I opened my music list, each song was in numerical order.   If I have the songs listed alphabetically, they are in numerical order.  If I change my listing to album or whatever, the first song is listed in numerical order just as I showed in my original question.  They are also numbered on my Playlists.  I have my favorites in two different playlists.  One of them was minus a song.  I was able to see which one was missing because they were in numerical order.  I know I could have just copied to correct one into the incorrect one and just skipped the duplicates, but I chose to do it this way.
    So, the songs are listed numerically in my music folder under Library on my older version of Itunes.  But, on my newer version, they are not listed numerically under music.  Maybe I'm doing something wrong?????
    Thanks so much for your help.  I wish they would just leave things alone.  I would gladly go back to the older version on my other computer, but???? 
    Again thanks.

  • HT201210 This is the second time my iphone has had to restore, how can I stop this from happening?

    My phone completely freezes and I get the itunes update icon.  Can I change a setting on my phone to stop this from happening as I am unable to use my phone at all when it does this and sometimes when I have gone to update I just keep getting error messages.

    There is no setting to stop this from happening, which means there is a major problem with your iPhone and the reason you can't use your iPhone at the time.
    If you restored from your iPhone's backup, try restoring as a new iPhone or not from the backup. If this occurs again shortly thereafter, the iPhone has a hardware problem.

  • Why is that every time I start my computer it asks for my Yahoo email password? How can I fix this?

    The computer keeps asking for my password for Yahoo. I already gave it but it asks over and over.  This happens every time I start using the computer.

    Back up all data.
    Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
    Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
    If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
    Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select Change Settings for Keychain "login". In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
    From the menu bar, select
    Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
    If the box marked Keep login keychain unlocked is not checked, check it.
    Select
    Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
    from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.
