Tabs don't reload after firefox 4 is shut down

When I restart Firefox 4, the tabs that I had opened don't reload. Nor does Firefox 4 ask me if I want to shut down and save the tabs, as the various versions of Firefox 3 had done.

Go to about:config (enter it in the address bar), and find '''browser.showQuitWarning''' and set it to '''true'''. This will make Firefox ask you each time if you want to save your session to restore the next time you open it, like in 3

Roboformtaskbaricon process will not close after firefox 9 is shut down

Hello,
The roboformtaskbaricon.exe (v754) process will not close after firefox 901 is shut down. Although I could be wrong, my guess is that firefox is pushing this process out of firefox, forcing it to run on its own. If it's a roboform issue, then I will contact them.
Thank you, bheart

On the page below, scroll down to "RoboForm Controls", then scroll down to '''''4. Taskbar Icon''''' under that heading. It sounds as though this may be the item to which you are referring. From the name of the file '''''roboformtaskbaricon.exe''''', it implies the Windows Task Bar rather than the Firefox toolbar.

For clarification of '''''roboformtaskbaricon.exe''''', its function and whether it should shut down when exiting Firefox, contact Roboform Online Support and leave full details of your question:

TabPlus, new tabs, don't open after typing in website addresses

I have used TabPlus (now called Tab Mix Plus) for years; I usually have quite a few tabs open; everything has worked perfectly until FF updated me to FF8, beta. Today, I tried to download & install version 8, newer than the Beta, but that did not help.
Tab Plus' new tabs, don't open after typing in website addresses; the cursor line to type in the next letter or word remains, blinking. I cannot open anything in any new tab that I have added by pressing down with the right mouse button and clicking on "New Tab (after this tab)."
As this problem did not exist in any version prior to 8, perhaps the developer has to do some updating. If not Firefox needs to fix some bug.
I have been with Mozilla FF since its beginning; it has been by favorite browser, but now, out of frustration, I have been using Chrome.
If you can solve this problem for me, I shall be happy to return FF to being my Default Browser.
All the best,
Carole (mhashev, my on-display name)

Is there a way to control the webpage that new tabs start at?

FIREFOX AND IE SHUTS DOWN ON CERTAIN SITES. WHY? IVE NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM UNTIL RECENTLY

SOMETIMES IN YAHOO MAIL, AND ON CRAIGS LIST, AND ALWAYS ON TROPICANA OJ FIREFOX AND IE SHUT DOWN. IVE RELOADED FIREFOX AND IT STILL DOESNT WORK

It's odd that both browsers shut down. One thing I notice from your "More system details" is that you don't have the latest Flash player plugin, at least for Firefox. You can check your version and update here:
http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
Hopefully that will help if the crashes are caused by Flash (e.g., rich media advertisements).

Firefox doesn't shut down properly (Win 7)

Firefox does not shut down (end process) after closing the browser, even after time has elapsed to allow for "file cleaning" and such. I am running Windows 7 Ultimate, Firefox 3.6.3, and a few plugins, a listed under the "installed plugins" area.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== FF 3.0 or thereabouts

I have the same problem. Unfortunately, I'm starting to use Internet Explorer more because this problem has become so annoying. If you are running a video when you close Firefox, it keeps running the video--you can hear it, but of course you can't get to it, so you have to start up the task manager to kill it.

Firefox won't shut down. I am running 3.6.8 on a Mac. I haven't had this problem until recently.

Firefox won't shut down properly. I am running 3.6.8 on a Mac and usually I have to force quit to get it to shut down. This has only begun recently. If I knew how to roll back to a previous version I would and save you the trouble, but alas, I do not.

I'm having this same problem. I am going uninstall Firefox and install Google Chrome. This is ridiculous that there is NO solution Mozilla can provide us! I can't shutdown my Mac because Firefox won't shutdown. I got a script error message, tried to STOP or CONTINUE To no avail.

'Open with'/'Always open with' file settings not saved after Mac get's shut down.

Every time I restart the computer, I have to re-change the 'open with' settings to files. How do you get the Mac to remember the settings after the computer is shut down. It used to not have this problem.

/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchSe rvices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user
on Terminal does nothing.

I couldn't remember ipad password. After six goes it shut down. Followed instructions and shut it down and tried to restart.

I couldn't remember ipad password. After six goes it shut down. Followed instructions to go back to scratch. Tried to connect to icloud and itunes. Not much success.
Completely new to this. Interested to see what ipads can do for education after supplying fifty or so to isolated schools

FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
1. Turn off iPad
2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
5. Release Home button.
ON COMPUTER
6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
7. Select "Restore iPad"...
Note:
1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
2. If you did not do step 4 properly, start all over again.

Apps Tabs get don't reload after closing the firefox

I just today tried to use apps tab. I set some links as apps tab and then closed the firefox. When i stared it again the apps tab were not there anymore. However according to this release the apps tab should be retained even after closing the firefox

Go to about:config (enter it in the address bar), and find '''browser.showQuitWarning''' and set it to '''true'''. This will make Firefox ask you each time if you want to save your session to restore the next time you open it, like in 3

Can't open tabs from previous session (after Firefox regularly closed)?!

Regularly closed firefox 36.0.4. and shot down computer (Windows 7 Pro 64-bit).
On next start, Firefox doesn't open tabs from previous session (altought it is configured to do this) !?!?!?
I lost about 30 tabs!!
Very, very frustrating!!!
Think to finish using Firefox forever!!!!!

Don't exit Firefox! Or if you already did, don't start it back up again!
''If Firefox is running:'' Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using either
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
* (menu bar) Help > Troubleshooting Information
* type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
In the first table on the page, click the "Show Folder" button. This should launch a new window listed various files and folders. For best results, change the view to "Details".
(''If Firefox not running, get to this folder by pasting the following in the Run box on the start menu and pressing Enter:'' %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles ''and then double-click into the most recently updated semi-randomly-named folder you find there.'')
In the window that launches, scroll down and double-click into the '''sessionstore-backups''' folder. Save all files here to a safe location, such as your Documents folder, so Firefox doesn't overwrite them. We may be able to use them to recover your lost tabs.
Also, if you return to the main level of the profile folder, you may find some sessionstore files. Copy those to the safe location as well.
Could you report back on what you found?
Note: If Windows hides the .js file extension from you, you can change a setting so that you can see all file extensions (this helps when renaming files). This support article has the steps: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/865219 or http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/show-hide-file-name-extensions
The kinds of files you may find among your sessionstore-backup files are:
* recovery.js: the windows and tabs in your currently live Firefox session (or, if Firefox is closed, your last session)
* recovery.bak: a backup copy of recovery.js
* previous.js: the windows and tabs in your last Firefox session
* upgrade.js-''build_id'': the windows and tabs in the Firefox session that was live at the time of your last update

Firefox keeps randomly shutting down

Recently, I got a new laptop: windows 8. I downloaded firefox because that's the browser I'm accustomed to and I've never had any problem with it before. But now for some reason, I'll be scrolling through the internet, either doing something or doing nothing at all. I could be watching a video or reading an article it doesn't matter. But my browser will just shut down, as if I just clicked the X in the top right corner...but I didn't. There's no hang up. It just shuts down. And then I have to re-open the browser and that alert comes up saying that something happened and it wants to restart the tabs I had open. I've tried everything suggested on the crash suggestion page and nothing has worked. I've reinstalled firefox twice and nothing worked. This is just really annoying, I've lost important work done on the internet. Can someone please fix it?

When exiting firefox the GUI shuts down but firefox.exe is sill running

Firefox starts and runs fine, but when time to exit, the GUI shuts down while firefox.exe is still running using 50% of possessor resources. I have to go into Windows Task Manager under processes and end program from there. Other wise firefox.exe will continue to run using more and more memory. If I try to start FireFox, then I get "Firefox already running".
Once I shut down firefox.exe with the Task Manger, Firefox will restart and run just fine.

Plug-in and tasks started by Firefox may continue after attempting to close Firefox. The "X" in the upper right-hand corner closes the Window (same as Ctrl+Shift+W) but even if it is the last Firefox window, it does not necessarily close Firefox .
The only proper way to exit Firefox is to use Exit through the File menu, not the "X" in the upper right corner of last Firefox window.
In 4.0 that would be Alt+F then X
"Restartless Restart" extension for Firefox 4.0 only (2 KB download )
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/249342/
-- or --
"QuickRestart" extension (34 KB download)
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/3559/
use to close and restart Firefox after enabling or disabling an extension, switching
to a new theme, or modifying configuration files, then you don't have to worry
about delay or have to look in the Task Manager to see if Firefox is closed yet.
Uses keyboard shortcut "Ctrl+Alt+R" or a file menu option.

After Lion install Macbook shuts down by itself

At random times My Macbook just shuts down for no rhyme or reason. Then I have to wait for a few minutes before it will turn back on.

After upgrading to Lion, my computer overheated and I had to have my graphics card replaced. It's happening again, and I'm using a fan control program to keep my system cool. This is a bandage and I'll be asking Apple to look into this because there must be something wrong with Lion.
I have done the resets, both the SMC and PRAM/NVRAM. No effect, and that's true for the original video card and the new one.
I'm tempted to use the Firmware Restoration, but will wait on Apple support.
I have an iMac 24" from ~2006. It's worked like a charm until Lion.

Dual boot computer restarts by itself shortly after it has been shut down or put into sleep mode

Hello,
I have Toshiba Equium L40-14I (old) and dual boot Vista and Linux.
A few days ago I noticed that while in a Linux operating system and when I put it to sleep (suspend) it would do so, but then immediately come alive again. The same thing happens with the shut down option. In Windows Vista it is the same. It does shut down, but in a few seconds restarts again and shows the normal options of choosing which operating system I want to boot. The computer only stays shut if I pull the power cord (it has no functioning battery) or it I forcefully shut it by pressing the power button for a few seconds.
So far I tried this:
- BIOS: 1. Changed to default factory settings. 2. Disabled wake-up on LAN and disabled wake up on keyboard.
- Device Manager, Network adapters, NIC, Properties, Power management: unticked the option that allows the adapter to wake the computer
- Device Manager: all drivers seem to be ok
- Virus scan: although this is probably not the issue as it happens independently of which operating system I am using. I have not installed any strange programs.
- I started from the Safe mode and then shut down. Same thing happened: it restarted automatically after a few seconds.
- Disabled automatic restart on system failure. It didn't help.
English is not my first language, sorry for the perhaps unclear way of describing this issue. I would appreciate any help. Thank you.

You have done just about everything I can think of. You didn't mention doing a System Restore. If you haven't done one or even if you have, do a System Restore back to at least sometime before this started happening. If the first one doesn't work, try a different restore point and do it again. If that doesn't work, you need to consider a full HDD recovery to out-of-box condition which procedure is fully covered in your User's Guide. I'm sorry I don't have a link for it but yours is not a U.S. machine and this site is for U.S. machines. It appears to be a U.K. model with support covered by THIS site.
BTW, I wish the native Americans who post on here did as well as you have so you have to make no excuses for your English.
