Start page won't come up

After logging on to my computer it goes blank. The start page won't come up. How do I fix this?

Hi Linniepoo,
We wonder if there is any luck your issue has been resolved, if you mean you cannot change homepage from blank,
Method 1
Please temporarily disable your antivirus software and Anti-Spyware, then check the issue again.
Method 2
Or you could try changing start page from following register value
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\InternetExplorer\Main\StartPage
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\InternetExplorer\Main\StartPage
Method 3
As Milos suggested reboot your computer to safe mode give it a try
Regards

  • Mail start page won't load correctly

    When I try to add CNN as my start page, it will not load correctly. I tried to change to fox news and it has an issue with the "System Error: Domain name mismatch". Other sights will not load properly as well.
    I have used Mozilla for many years and never had this problem. It just started one day. I have not changed anything on my system.
    Thank you for your help.

    hello KatyG, other users with this problem all had an embedded intel hd3000 graphics card with an old driver present. in case this also applies to you, here would be a link to update the driver, which in turn should also address the black firefox problem: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?DwnldID=23764 (for win7 64 bit)
    in case this doesn't solve the issue or does not apply to your system, start firefox into safemode '''by pressing the shift key while the application is launching''' & disable hardware acceleration in the firefox ''menu ≡ > options > advanced > general'' (that setting will take a restart of the browser to take effect).

  • Installed 4.0 - Firefox Start Page won't go away - why aren't homepage and add-ons saving?

    After installing Firefox 4.0 the Start Page and Welcome to Firefox page returns each time I start Firefox. My homepage and add-ons won't save.

    Thank you very much. I reset Firefox and it worked. I knew of MalwareBytes but had no intention of installing it before. I decided to install it anyway now and it even found 3 trojans that my Avira couldn't.
    My first instinct was to reset Firefox to it's default state but I was afraid of losing my bookmarks, cookies, site preferences etc. so I didn't even bother. Now that I saw it was my last hope, I saw there is actually a phase between clicking the "Reset Firefox" button and the action being executed. The phase explains what the button will do and asks if you agree. I did not know that and I am really happy I could keep my old stuff.
    Thanks a bunch, even if my instincts were right, I wouldn't have bothered to reset Firefox just because I'd be too lazy to get every setting back to how it was.
    Thanks again!

  • My apple start page does not come up unless I reboot, neither does apple website

    My apple start page has stopped coming up when I click on safari unless I reboot. Some times no apple website will come up.

    Search engines are not clairvoyant. So you have to tell them you exist :
         http://www.google.com/addurl/
    You could also have posted the URL in your message.
    Google indexes this forum in real-time and would have found your URL within hours.
    Then check it with this text in the search field :
         site:yourdomain.com
    Where yourdomain is your domainname, if you have one.
    Here's mine :

    You can also add the URL in the profile's preferences.

  • After updating to iOS 8 my iPad 2 does not keep my user name and password for isp start page

    After updating to iOS 8 my i pad 2 does not store the user name and password for my earthlink start page.  In past could go to bookmark and the start
    page would automatically come up.  Now I must enter the user name and password every time to access the personalized start page.  tried to find some settings that needed changing but no luck.  is this a problem with iOS 8     Earthlink referred me to apple   they could not help    any help here

    Hello nkrlw,
    It may be that AutoFill is disabled in Safari, or that Private Browsing is on.
    Go to Settings > Safari > Passwords & AutoFill and make sure that Names and Passwords is on.
    Go to your Home screen and open Safari. If Safari is black or dark instead of white or gray, Private Browsing is on. Safari doesn't save account names and passwords when Private Browsing is on. To turn off Private Browsing:
    On iPad, tap the the plus icon in the upper-right corner of the Safari page, then tap Private in the lower-left corner.
    On iPhone and iPod touch, tap  in the lower-right corner of the Safari page, then tap Private in the lower-left corner.

  • Once I access email either on start page or from email page, I can not back up without restarting Firefox, Mac OS 10.4.11

    Email from start page won't open more than one time, once I go back it won't open again no matter how many times I click on it.
    Email from email page won't back up once opened. It only goes back to start page after multiple clicks. Running Mac-Mini with OS 10.4.11.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == After last "MANDATORY" update.

    re "Apple should have the control panel report the proper IP address"
    On clicking Personal web sharing, you get information to the effect:
    View this computer’s website at http://10.1.1.4/ or your personal website at http://10.1.1.4/~user/
    This is wrong to a user. Others could not enter this URL and get access to the website using this information. This is what I meant by "wrong"--its NOT the IP address that the user should use to view/use the web site. The software already knows its using DHCP, etc., so it should know to present the modem's IP and from memory in the past it did. As a wrote earlier, I used to be able to just copy the IP address given.
    What Apple probably need are two statements:
    To view this computer’s website from the local network use ...
    To view this computer’s website from the internet use ...
    Even, then I'd question the use of 10.1.1.4.

  • How come pages won't open PDF files made by Pages?

    How come pages won't open PDF files made by Pages?
    I have files I made with Pages and exported as PDF but I can't open them with pages to edit?
    Also, where are the recent files created by pages located? Can't find those to open either..

    Hi Tom,
    I was delighted when I signed up for Pages. Clunky yes, but it worked. I've been a graphic designer on a Mac for 25 plus years and have logged too many horror stories of "upgrade" wars which cost me massive lost time, data and money forcibly extracted just so I could finish a project.
    When I first used Pages in April of 2012? or there about, I was able to open Word documents exported to .pdf format, emailed to me, which I then dragged into Pages. I could make the changes I needed to make, export as a .pdf, return it back to my client which they could then edit on whatever it was they were using. I'm not a neophyte with this. I've had Original Photoshop as a stand alone, Quark (which locked users out 6 months after I purchased it.) Quark again, Freehand, Pagemaker, Illustrator, Photoshop again, Creative Suite for several upgrades, Acrobat Pro. 2 years ago I lost 6 years of Quicken data and had to and "upgrade" start over. This last go around I  had to "upgrade" my Apple ID - yes I had 2 on purpose, lost my Pandora One and my ability to get into the Tulsa County Library website.
    At this point, I'm retired and feel like what I've paid for in the past should WORK today. I have a 100+ page cookbook in Quark which I was able to export as a .pdf, that I've lost the tags too, Easier to start over. I have artwork that is hundreds of megs in Photoshop. Not the least bit interested in anybody's "cloud".
    Thanks for letting me vent. I'm determined to keep my equipment and software up to date so I can enjoy the skills I've acquired, but I completely cringe at Apple's antics. I truly hate it when I have to respond to some new "tip" or product offer. BooHiss. Happy Turkey Day. Pages is a "turkey" program.
    Best regards, mbd

  • Wont scroll,my start page wont come up, this up grade is a * and buggy

    I suggest creating a new profile to determine whether Firefox's program files are corrupt, or your personal profile (settings, add-ons) is creating problems.
    First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
    Next, fire up the profile manager and create a new profile: [https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Managing+profiles Managing profiles].
    If that works, you can (selectively!) move key settings like bookmarks from your damaged profile to the new profile. More info: [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Recovering+important+data+from+an+old+profile Recovering important data from an old profile].

  • Firefox froze up. So I removed from computer and reloaded. If I close Firefox, can't restart by clicking on the icon. Have to end process in Task Manager. It then starts. Some links on some web pages won't work.

    Hi,
    As I say in the question I don't know what happened but Firefox just stopped operating and then became erratic. So I removed the firefox programme from my computer and reloaded Firefox.
    It now runs normally but I can't run Firefox on two tabs, only one, and if I close it down during a session I can't reopen it using the desk top icon. I go to task manager, processes, and end process for Firefox - then I can start it using the icon on the desktop.
    I have also noticed that some links on a web page won't work - javascript is involved.
    Thanks for your herlp,
    Mike FD

    It sounds like you are getting in a hurry.
    If you force Firefox to close in a hurry, then it won't normally start until you re-start the computer. There are ways around this, but I'm not going to go into them right now.
    None-force way to close Firefox down: Close the program and wait. Do something else. Firefox appears as if it is closed, but it's not. Firefox cleans out cookies and it's cache after you close it. That takes a few minutes. You can't restart it while it's doing house cleaning.
    After it is done, then you can restart Firefox normally. You can watch it in the Task Manager.
    The same applies if you are installing javascript. You have to wait a few minutes.
    As for running it with multiple tabs, I usually have 5 or 6, or more, tabs open at a time. Have no idea what the problem is there. Firefox needs special permission by use of a pop-up option to close with multiple tabs open.

  • When I try starting my iPod touch, it won't start; the Apple logo comes up for a few seconds, and then, it just shuts off. I tried to charge it through an outlet; the iPod didn't even charge, so I tried to restore my settings on my computer. iTunes won't

    when i try starting my IPod  it won't start, the Apple logo comes up for a few seconds,and then. it just shut off . I tried to charged it through an outlet, the IPod didn't eve charger so I tried to restore my setting in my computer, i tunes won't

    But that requires the computer to see the ipod. I am having the same problem and I keep being told to restore it, but you have to either get the ipod to turn on or have the computer see it in order to so that. Right now I have a pretty useless 32GB ipod touch cos I cant get the thing to turn on! I can only get the apple logo for like maybe 20 seconds and it goes away. Ive charged it for days on a wall charger, on the computer usb charger, and on a speaker charger. Nothing works.

  • Mozilla firefox start page keeps logging itself on after I close all internet windows I come back and there it is. Why??? Make it stop.

    mozilla firefox start page keeps logging itself on after I close all internet windows I come back and there it is. Why??? Make it stop.

    I've got the exact same issue! I'm pretty sure it just started today too. It's so bizarre because we've all been using Firefox 26.0 for at least a month, right? How could the ''about:home'' page all of a sudden cause this issue?
    I've been able to replicate this issue on a virtual machine running Windows XP SP3, so clearly it has nothing to do with Windows 7.

  • Firefox sees my earthlink start page as sinister and won't let it open. Why and how do I get past it?

  • Won't go past the start page, even after reseting

    I try to go onto firefox, firefox starts, however it won't even go past the start page. I've tried a number of different things and nothing seems to work. I've tried a few different websites and nothing, it says it's loading but then remains on the same page.
