The tabs I have open show as new tabs rather than the websites I had opened.

I have a large number of tabs open in a window, and when I hit "restore previous session" to open them, they are shown as "new tab" rather than the websites I had opened. Prior to the previous two updates, I had no problem with this, but now it's a recurring issue on Firefox.

Make sure that the history and possibly the disk cache are working.
Do you see the history in the History Manager (Library; Show All History)?
To see all History and Cookie settings, choose:
*Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history"
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Options+window+-+Privacy+panel
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
*Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox profile folder that store session data.
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)

Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost and you will have to recreate them (make a note or bookmark them if possible).

  • How can I show the name in the list of new messages rather than the address

    I have noticed something weird in Apple mail. In the list of new messages, the FROM field sometimes shows the email address rather than the name of the sender (even if that sender is in my address book). Because of this, when I search for some users, I can search by name but for others I must search by email address. However, in the FROM field when I actually open the message, the full name is always in the field rather than the email address (if the contact is in my address book at least).
    Here's a screenshot that illustrates what I am talking about.

    (notice that in the message list it says from [email protected] but in the message view below, it says from Tony XXXX
    My question is: Is there any way to display the actual name in the FROM field in the list of new messages rather than the email address, in the same way it is displayed when I actually open the message? I can't seem to find any settings that fix this.

    Yup, no longer an option.

  • HT4314 I have tried to log into clash of clans on my iPad and it just keeps going to a new game rather than the one saved on my iPhone. I have been using the game centre and same user name and password ?

    I have tried to log into clash of clans on my iPad and it just keeps going to a new game rather than the one saved on my iPhone. I have been using the game centre and same user name and password ?

    I have the same problem.. EXACTLY. .  When phoning Apple Support they had trouble understanding my problem and couldnt find any type of solution. No one seems to take responsibility for GameCenter issues. The assistant escalated the problem but no one could find an answer. .
    The only idea was to set up a new apple id, hence a new GameCenter account. . But that would loose all the itunes data. Anyone got ideas ?

  • What are the implications of using jquery version 1.10.2 rather than the version (1.7.1) that Adobe

    What are the implications of using jquery version 1.10.2 rather than the version (1.7.1) that Adobe uses? Thanks
    Bob

    I am having trouble when my Edge Animate composition (banner ad) appears on a web page that uses jquery version 1.8.23. Some of the functionality of the host page no longer works. This occurs only when my composition is present & the functionality returns when another ad is displayed (either a Flash ad or a gif). It happens in Chrome Version 31.0.1650.63 m, Chrome Version 33.0.1738.0 canary & IE 11.
    I had edited my Edge Animate files to use the Adobe CDN option & to point to another server (mine) so only the html file was needed to be placed in the ad rotator & on the host's server. I now have edited them again to include the Google CDN locations for version jquery 1.10.2 (http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js). I am waiting for the host site to try this updated html file. When I visit just this new page & the old one that pointed to 1.7.1 for that matter, it works fine.
    Thank you for taking the time to read and answer my message.

  • I am creating a form on LiveCycle Designer and I am trying to create a form that has a e-mail submit button.  When the butten is utilized it attaches the form to the e-mail in an plain text .xml format rather than the pdf format.  Is there a quick fix?

    Hi,
    You have the choice between xml or pdf, in later versions of designer you can choose with a dropdown on the email button Object palette, the "Submit As";
    In earlier version you had to edit the XML Source and change the format from xml to pdf (or vice-versa);

    The basic answer is that Apple has not programmed the capture routine with this capability. As such, you can always send QT feedback requesting this feature be added as a future enhancement.

  • I am unable to open documents ending with .doc (rather than docx, which I can open). The error message states "[name of document]" is being used by "another user." Do you want to make a copy? Help!!!

    How can I open a Word document, when I receive this error message "[name of document]" is being used by "another user." Do you want to make a copy?
    (This only occurs on the documents I have saved as .doc; the ones saved as "docx" open for me. Help!

    Did you recently reinstall the OS then copy all your files back over? Do a Get info on one of the documents and see if your current UserName is listed and has Read & Write permissions. If not select the Documents folder and check that for Read & Write permissions for your UserName. If it doesn't have R & W permissions Add it so it does.

  • How do I get my computer to start opening up files instead of opening a pop up window rather than the file?

    My computer has started opening up pop up windows that say, "Step 1: Select File, Information Gathered Successfully, Step 2: Click Show Information Button", instead of opening the file I click on. This informaion windown has generated another pop up window that suggests I visit the iTunes store for an app that will open the file. Twice I have purchased apps that the iTunes store said would open the file. Twice the apps have made no difference at all. The apps did not open the file. Even more frustrating than being sold apps that don't work is that the files I'm trying to open are textedit files created with the software on the very computer that is now refusing to open them.
    How do I get beyond the pop-ups and open the files I created?
    Is it possible to return the apps that iTunes said would work, but did not?

    Please post a screenshot that shows what you mean. Be careful not to include any private information.

  • DIrecting iPhoto to open from my WD Passport rather than the iMac itself

    We have recently taken over 15000 photos off of out 2005 iMac iPhoto 5 because the system kept crashing. We placed all of the photos onto a WD Passport. My question is how do I go about having iPhoto open from my WD Passport and not on the iMac? Ideally I would like to keep all of our photos on the WD Passport in an easily viewable format, such as iPhoto. In addition to this I would like to have any new pictures we look to download from our camera go directly to the iPhoto on our WD Passport, and not the iMac itself. Can someone please help out? Much appreciated!!!

    Unfortunately I didn't do it that way, and am not sure how to go about that. What I did do was:
    1) Made a folder on the WD Passport, than highlighted and dragged all photos to that folder and subsequently deleted them from the iPhoto
    If you did the deletions using iPhoto and emptying the iPhoto trash then you have photos (not in iPhoto) on your passport EHD and a working iPhoto library on your internal drive
    2) Dragged the iPhoto icon from my iMac 2005 to the WD Passport. Now when I download pics, they seem to populate in both the iMac as well as the Passport, as if they are linked?
    There did you drag the iPhoto icon from? there is an iPhoto library icon which by default is in your pictures folder and an iPhoto application which needs to be in the applications folder on your main hard drive.
    Now when I download pics, they seem to populate in both the iMac as well as the Passport, as if they are linked?
    No they are not linked - It is not totally clear where you are and what you have done - but it sounds like you copied your photos from the iPhoto library on the main drive to a folder on the EHD and then moved the iPhoto application to the EHD - if this is the case the first thing to do is put the iPhoto application back loose at the root level of the applications folder on your boot drive. and test everything - then verify the format of teh EHD and post back
    In the end do you want your iPhoto library on the EHD and will you always have the EHD connected and available prior to launching iPhoto?

    An additional question now is "the external hard drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (journaled)"? How do I know if this is the case?
    In the finder right click on it and select "get info" - the format is near the middle of the "general" section

  • How can I get new tabs to automatically open when I click on a new site (rather than replace the existing page I am using)?

    For some reason when i click on to a new site or link, tabs no longer automatically open so if i forget to manually click on the little plus sign at the end of the tab strip, my new destination replaces where i currently was. This was not the case in the past and I cannot find where to reset this so that a new tab will once again auto create. !
    I tried options/tabs: open new windows in a new tab instead, but this did not fix the issue. Can anyone tell me what i need to do get firefox to create auto creat a new tab when i move to a new link rather than replace the one currently in use? Thank you!

    You can middle click a link to open that link in a new tab.

  • How do I stop Mac App Store apps listing as "Accept" rather than the purchase price?

    Hi there,
    I'm attempting to buy iPhoto '11 from the Mac App Store but it lists as "Accept" rather than the purchase price.
    When I click on Accept a message pops up saying "These apps cannot be accepted by your Apple ID: These apps were already assigned to another Apple ID, and they will be available in that Apple ID's Purchases list. If you don't have access to that Apple ID and want to receive future updates, you will need to purchase the applications."
    The pop-up gives the option to hit OK and there are no other buttons.
    iPhoto '11 is not in my purchases list. I have never bought it before. I am using a second hand Mac and I suspect the previous owner may have downloaded iPhoto but it is no longer installed anywhere on the system and I am the sole user of it. There are no other accounts on this Mac and it looks like it was reformatted back to scratch before I bought it.
    The problem is I cannot find any way to reset the "Accept" option so I can actually purchase the App.
    Does anyone know how to fix this issue?

    i also am having this EXACT same problem and alot of others seem to be too? i wonder what is going on here! if anyone from apple reads this, maybe it is something you can look into? My mac did not come with a start up disk and i accidently deleted the iphoto app... i have 2 apple I.Ds but i dont use the one originally registered. i am aware i will have to buy the app again in this case so please let me buy iPhoto please! and thanks!

  • Does the older external iSight Web Cam produce better quality video than the built-in iSight in current computers or is it about the same?

    I am starting to do video blogging more and have built in iSight on my MacBook and MacBook Pro.  I also have the old iSight external web cam that was made prior to them being built into the computers.  I never used the external camera because when I bought it, web cam's weren't popular and I couldn't get anyone else to learn to use one to skype with me, plus back then... I had no idea nor no use for video blogging.  Before I pull it out and try to learn how to use it, I was just wondering if anyone else has used it and whether the quality from the external camera is significantly better than the built in cameras - enough to warrant using it rather than the built in.
    Thanks for any suggestions!

  • Is it possible to have the Navigation Toolbar (or at least the pop-up Location Bar) show automatically when I open a (blank) new tab and be automatically hidden once I select an address/search?

    I'm obviously aware of the possibility to show/hide the Navitation Toolbar manually, but I'd like to have it done automatically to get the best of screen space and navigation ease.

    Thanks cor-el! I had tried that out, but was turned off by the different workflow (can't click Tab to select the address suggestions) and assumed by the look that I couldn't use my Smart Keywords for searches.
    In fact, the workflow isn't that much bulkier and the Location Bar is fully functional:
    * ''for a search: Ctrl+L, (Smart Keyword +) [search terms], Enter''
    * ''for a suggested address: Ctrl+L, Down, Enter, Enter''
    Still, it would be nice in future versions if:
    # the Location Bar could automatically open when opening a (blank) new tab (just as the cursor automatically goes to the Location Bar when a new tab is opened with the Navigation Toolbar showing) to avoid the Ctrl+L step of the workflow
    # the Tab, Enter workflow could be enabled for selecting address suggestions in the pop-up Location Bar
    Or (most simply in my mind):
    if '''the Navigation Toolbar could be set to show when a (blank) new tab is opened and disappear once an address/search is selected'''.

  • Everytime I open a new window to browse, in this new window I would right click to open link in new tab but the new tab always shows up in the other window.

    I would click a link which opens a new window. Then in this new window, I would right click to open link in new tab. The new tab does not show up in this new window. It instead shows up in the original browser window. How can I make the new tab show up in the same window?

    Firefox did have a behavior where some new windows -- those considered to be dialogs -- could not have new tabs, so new tabs were diverted to the window from which the dialog was opened.
    According to the bug tracking system, a fix is in the works:
    [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=644729 644729 – Popup window with all toolbars visible causes new tabs to open in another browser window] referencing [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=485237 485237 – Need to treat popups consistently].
    That second ones says Target Milestone: Firefox 12, so the fix probably didn't make it into Firefox 11.
    WORKAROUNDS
    That first bug says there is an add-on to work around this -- it enables the middle mouse button to open links in a dialog window: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bug-586234-unfixer/ Bug 586234 Unfixer :: Add-ons for Firefox]. I haven't tried it myself.
