Using Google news as a home page, cannot stay logged in to Google. FF22.0 &Google

I am using FF 22.0 and Google News as a home page. Every time access my home page, I have to re-login to Google News in order to retain my settings. Is this a FF issue or a Google issue. This also means that i cannot remain logged in to Goog news after visiting another website and returning to my home page. This USEDto work with prior versions of FF, but not 22. Not a big deal, but really annoying.
Any assistance is appreciated

Are you allowing that site to set cookies? Have you checked your settings in Options > Clear history when Firefox closes > Settings to make sure that your cookies are not being deleted?

Do you have the FastStart extension?
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

Open new tab with home page displaying

i want to know if when you open a new tab your home page can automatically appear instead of a empty page. How can you do this? thank you

You can do that by using an add-on such as:
* NewTabURL - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/newtaburl
* New Tab Homepage - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage
Another way of opening the home page in a new tab is to middle click on the home button in the navigation toolbar.

How to get Google on my internet home page and not at&t

when I go into the internet on my phone AT&T window comes up instead of Google. How do I get Google to be my home page?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

When in your browser, go to 'settings'. There should be an option to set the home page, where you can change it to whatever you want.
Out of curiosity, how did it get AT&T as a home page if you have a Verizon phone?

How do you get the home page to stay the same when you reload your firefox after changing homepage

We previously had google as our main home page then tried a page called bearshare. Now we want to change the home page back to google. I have tried numerous times typing in the new home page under tools, options then general tab and when we close firefox and then reopen the page it loads bearshare again so we go back to tools option again and it has automatically changed back to bearshare. We are running windows xp on our system and prefer google but bearshare is annoying as it doesn't find alot of kids games sites that we can get through google. Please help what do we do to stop it from changing back all the time?

Type '''''about:config''''' in a new window address bar. Click ''''''I will be careful'''''.
You will see all kinds of information that Firefox uses so it knows how to
work. There is a search bar at the top of the page. Type ''''''browser.startup.homepage'''''' and check its entry. You can change it to what
ever web page you want, or you can enter; ''''''about:blank'''''' for a blank page.
I use the Firefox home page; '''''about:home'''''. After, go back to the search bar
and type; '''''browser.newtab.url'''''. This is what a new tab page will display.
Do the same thing here. You can have the same for both or have each open to
different pages.

I regret that you're having trouble setting up your email, corbad! You're on the right track with your incoming email address. You might also try incoming.verizon.net or incoming.yahoo.verizon.net as possible alternatives, and 995 as the port number. Please let me know how that goes!

AVG Secure Search appears when I use Google Search from my Home page only.

My home page is the Firefox default page with the Google searchbar. I like getting occasional messages from Firefox when I log in so I don't want to change my homepage. However, when I use the searchbar ''on my homepage only'', I get the unsatisfactory AVG Secure Search results.
UPDATE: I now realize all the troubleshooting information I included in my original question appears under the "More System Details" link next to the question, not in the body of the question. I have copied it here to make it easier to see what I have already done to try to solve the problem, as well as describe the one clue I have that may be relevant:
I have tried all the fixes on various threads, but my about:config is now pristine (no avg or isearch mentions; keyword.url is default). Closest solution is that at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/866327 , which requires changing my home page.
Oddly, AVG Secure Search is ''not'' a problem when I use the Google toolbar or search from the Google website, only when I use the search bar that appears on my home (start) page. This is true even when I return to my home page--if I search from the Google search bar in the middle of the page, I get sent to AVG Safe Search. (isearch.avg.com).
I read in one thread a suggestion to delete my chromeappsstore.sqlite file in my Profile folder. As promised, Firefox created a new one when I restarted it; however, the search bar in the middle of my home home page did not work at all. Tried this three times before restoring my original.
I do not have an application that will open a sqlite file, but I tried doing so in Excel and found a cell containing the following:
emoh.:moz-safe-aboutsearch-engine{"name":"AVG Secure Search","searchUrl":"http://isearch.avg.com/search?cid={7A3C25A0-E345-4507-AA31-D98F596A81A9}&mid=c48135235ba247d18ac1d14b344db451-addd29eab2809954d5abdf0b991a5b911a297819&ds=is015&lang=en&v=10.0.0.7&pr=sa&d=&sap=dsp&q=_searchTerms_"}
I have no clue what that means, but it is the only thing I can find related to Firefox that still mentions AVG and isearch.avg.com.
At this point my best guess (but it is a guess) is that the chromeappsstore.sqlite file is a key to the complete solution, but I do not have enough knowledge to go beyond and address it. I appreciate any help you anyone can offer.

Here is the way to get rid of the problem once and for all:

V33 now using search suggestions in integrated home page

Firefox updated itself to v33 last night and now the integrated home page with the Google entry box is no longer using autocomplete, but instead is using search suggestions. I do not want to use search suggestions, or else I would set Google as my home page.
How do I revert this to the prior behavior with autocomplete?

I suspect that my be related to the new "faster and snappier searches" feature in Firefox 33.
http://msujaws.wordpress.com/2014/08/01/faster-and-snappier-searches-now-in-firefox-aurora/
''Yes, the example provided there is totally different then what you are talking about, but ...''
See if '''Show search suggestions''' in the Search Bar > Manage Search Engines... List is check-marked. With the massive number of consolidation steps that Firefox has seen over the past 5 or 6 versions to "search" functionality, that pref just may also be controlling what you are seeing on the default Homepage.
