Using my (signed in) google page as my home page

I use Windows XP and until recently when I started Firefox it remembered my choice and the homepage was my (signed in) Google home page.
There have been Firefox and Google updates (which may be irrelevant) but now I get a page which is suggesting I try this latest version and I have to click on the 'x' to close the suggestion and then sign in. I have tried Tools/Options/Privacy and made sure 'private browsing' is deselected. Gone to Tools/Options/General and where it says 'Home page' accepted 'Use current pages'.
Help would be appreciated.

Does it help if you leave the Google page open use session restore.

Are you using Clear Recent History to clear data like the cookies when you close Firefox?

  • 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?

  • Even though I checked the keep me signed in box, I have to sign in to get to my home page

    I have the keep me signed in box checked but I have to sign in to get to my home page. It comes up with the set up your home page.

    The default Homepage in Firefox is '''about:home''', which isn't a page on the internet, it is built into Firefox and doesn't have a login. It does look a lot like the [http://www.google.com/firefox Google / Firefox start page] which was used previously, but it isn't the same.
    Firefox doesn't use the Homepage setting in Internet Options.
    See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page How to set the homepage]
    As far as "remember me" for web site logins, that is usually done with a cookie, if you clear your cookies when Firefox closes, you won't be "remembered".

  • 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?

    Do you have the FastStart extension?
    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.

  • I cannot set my igoogle page as my home page using a new MacBook Air with the latest verion of the Mac OS and Firefox.

    I have a new MacBook Air with the latest Mac OS and I down loaded the latest version of Firefox from your web site. I am trying to set my igoogle page as my home page. I log into my igoogle home page and then go to the Preferences option on the Firefox menu. I click the option to use the current page as my home page. As long as I am logged into Firefox it takes me back to my igoogle home page when I click on the Home icon. If I log out of Firefox and open it again later in the day it takes me to the igoogle log in page but not my home page. I have a Mac at home and do not have this problem and I do not have this problem with my PC at the office.
    Any ideas?

  • With version 5, on starting get a box "checking compatibility of add-ons" then to Firefox home page not my home page--What's happening?

    Just installed version 5. As above I get the box then it goes to Firefox home page not my home page. I've updated and/or disabled every add-on or extension and it made no difference. I am in a university behind a tough firewall. I'd love to go back to version 4 but that isn't available.

    Disabled add-ons will still be checked and can still be updated.
    I don't know why you are continuously getting the message, you should only get it when there is a version change.
    You can try solutions in https://support.mozilla.com/questions/817681 but you had better make a list of what extensions you had disabled first, because all of your extensions will be enabled when you delete/rename those files in your profile. You can use about:support to get a list of your extensions. (renaming is safer than deleting).

  • The back, forward, reload and stop buttons are greyed out, the address bar stays blank when I go to a website and firefox loads to a blank page, not my home page. There are 3 users on this computer and it only happens on one user.

    Firefox loads to a blank page, not my home page. When I click on the home button it takes me to the home page. The back, forward, refresh and stop buttons are greyed out and not usable. The webpage I am on does not show up in the address bar. If I type something into the address bar, that address stays there no matter what page I go to next.

    Just upgraded to v4. It did NOT fix the problem.

  • When i want to return to my home page I click on the home icon and it resets the page to my home page but also open a blak tab which i don't want how can I stop this as i have too many tabs open.

    When I want to return to my home page after looking at a website I click on the home icon and it resets the page to my home page but also open a blak tab which i don't want.How can I stop this as I have too many tabs open and have to close all of them.

    You may have an unwanted extension that is modifying sites (or the toolbar area). Try this:
    Disable ALL nonessential or unrecognized extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
    * Ctrl+Shift+a
    * orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable.
    Usually a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
    Does that flush the tab?
    Please report back on anything suspicious you find so others can learn about its bad behavior.

  • How to launch the Create Incident page as the Home Page

    Hi All,
    My issue is to launch the Create Incident page as the Home Page in the Service Pro Role.
    To launch the Create Incident page as the Home Page is there any SPRO Configuration or we have to do through the code?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Venkat

    Hi Venkat,
    This can be done in the navigation bar configuration. Go to the path below and select your navigation bar profile, next to the description of your navigation bar profile there is a link ID, replace the home work centre logical link SRV-HOM-WC with this link SRV-INC-CR.
    When you now log into your business role the incident creation screen should display instead of the service home screen
    SPRO --> CRM --> UI Framework --> Technical Role Definition --> Define Navigation Bar Profile
    Regards,
    David.
