Do you have those pages set as multiple home pages?
See [[How to set the home page]]: Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' symbols

In the home page setting you need to use a pipe (|) symbol as separator.
See [[How to set the home page]]
You can also create or modify a Firefox desktop shortcut and add the two URLs to the target field of that shortcut.
In that case you need to separate the URLs with a space.
"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" http://site1.com http://site2.com

Why do I have to turn on my wi-fi manually every time I log into my computer? Can't it just log in when I do?

Test after taking each of the following steps. Back up all data before making any changes.
1. Make sure the network is on the preferred list by following these instructions. It's important to read the article carefully, as it's the starting point for any further efforts to solve the problem. If you skip any of the steps, the problem may not be solved.
2. Follow the instructions in this support article under the heading "Symptom: The network connection drops unexpectedly."
3. Make a note of all your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane, then delete the connection from the connection list and recreate it with the same settings. You do this by clicking the plus-sign icon below the connection list, and selecting Wi-Fi as the interface in the sheet that opens. Select Join other network from the Network Name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when prompted and save it in the keychain.
4. From the Location menu at the top of the Network preference pane, select Edit Locations. A sheet will drop down. Click the plus-sign button to create a new location. Give it any name you want. In the new location, set up the Wi-Fi service with the same settings you used before. Click Apply and test.
5. Launch the Keychain Access application. Search for and delete all AirPort network password items that refer to the network. Make a note of the password first.
6. Repair permissions on the startup volume.
7. Turn off Bluetooth and test.
8. Reset the System Management Controller.
9. Reset the PRAM.
10. Reinstall OS X.

How do I stop one extra tab from opening every time I start Firefox?

Every time I open Firefox, my Yahoo homepage opens, but an additional page also opens which has a variety of website thumbnails and nothing else on that page.
In my Options, I have ONLY www.yahoo.com selected as my homepage, so only ONE page should be opening every time I start Firefox.
However, no matter what I do, this second page continues to open every time. It's very irritating, as half the time I've already begun to enter data into my homepage, then the second page pops up and switches to that and I'm typing on that page.
Please advise.

@jscher2000
Thank you!! That fixed the problem. The only add-ons I have are for my anti-virus software WebRoot, but somehow I must have installed Speed Dial without realizing it.
That fixed the problem. Greatly appreciated!!

Lion setup assistant opens every time I log on...

I just upgraded my iMac 3.06 Intel Core 2 Duo to Lion. Now, every time I log on, the Lion setup assistant boots up and requires me to "click to continue." Also, the iCloud preference pane opens up. This happens every single time I log on. I have tried to find out how to disable the screens from opening, but with no luck. Can anyone help me turn the buggers off?

rkaufmann87, Thanks again for your reply,
I had done the simple things previous to my last post - following your excellent advice on other threads. I have tried again the methods you describe, starting in safe mode. Also starting via the recovery disk and 'Repair Disk Permission' (done this about 6 times). Unfortunately no change. What is strange is the same mesage is displayed multiple times.
"Permissions differ on system/library/coreservices/remoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/contents/support/remo tedesktopapp/contents/resources"
"Repaired system library core services remoteManagement/ARDSmgmt.app"
And running Repair Disk Permissions, the same repair is affected even when this was completed in the past repair scan. It is as if the repair is not effective or there is a subroutine rewriting this again?
The Repair Disk Option has been run multiple times with no fault found.
I have even done a full install from safe mode, downloading the install file again from the app store but still have the same problem. Settings not remembered and the set up assistant launches again with the System Preferences pane also displayed. The MacBook also seems sluggish compared to the mac mini which had its Lion update and works just fine. Thankfully ios5 devices, ipad and iphone work a treat, its just getting this MacBook sorted.
Can you advise my best course of action?
I get the impression that I will neeed to backup my data and 'start again' with a disk format and clean install?
Many thanks

I don't want an email every time I log into my icloud account. How do I turn this off?

Every time I log in to my icloud account, I get an email notifying me that I have done so. I don't want this and can't figure out how to stop receiving them.

You can't actually stop them. If they are coming to your iCloud address you could go to the iCloud website, go to the Mail page, click on the cogwheel icon at bottom left, choose 'Rules' and set up a Rule to move all messages from [email protected] to another folder you previously created, or the Trash. If they are coming to a non-Apple address you can do the same thing in the Mail app on your Mac (presumably also on mobile devices though I don't know about that).

How do I stop the Welcome to Firefox tab from opening every time I open Firefox?

I have read two ways to try and stop this in the help but they either did not apply or I could not do what they suggest.
Every time I open Firefox of late the Welcome to fire fox tab opens along with my home page. It is only a small annoyance to turn it off each time but I would like to stop it from happening. What can I do?
I found another where they say to delete something out of the about.config but I was not able to delete the line. I could not find how to delete a line out of the about config.

You can check the home page setting:
*Tools > Options > General > Startup: Home page
Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' (pipe) symbols.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
There is software like Advanced SystemCare with its Surfing Protection feature that can protect files in the Firefox profile folder against changes.
If you have such software then check the settings or uninstall this software.

How do I stop the "Getting Started with Mozilla Firefox" tab from opening every time I open FF?

Every time I open FF, the "Getting Started with Mozilla Firefox" tab opens. I have checked and it's not in my homepage list.
If I open any additional windows, it doesn't open.
But, once I close all of them and reopen it again, the tab opens.
I've had a similar problem with a couple addons (ietab) doing the same thing.

about:config is typed into the address bar as if you were going to a web page.
It will popup a message warning you that you are messing with important stuff.
Just agree.

In Hotmail a new tab is opened every time i click on a file folder

Using Version 3.6.12. Running XP SP3.
Uninstalled and did a clean install.
In Hotmail, whenever I click on a folder (for example INBOX, DELETED, JUNK, etc) a new tab is opened in the browser. It does open the file as well, just adds another tab each time. It's like the control key is stuck, but it only does this in Hotmail.

I should also mention that this does not occur in IE.

ITunes reboots automatically every time I try to shut it down, any ideas how to fix this?

Hi! Every time I try to quit iTunes, it shuts down and reboots automatically, so once I've started it I won't be able to turn it off. And further more, if I want to shut down my computer while iTunes is on, it just won't happen, and the only way to do it is by pressing the Power button for a couple of seconds, then a dialog box will ask me if I'm sure what I to do, wether rebooting or shutting down, and only then I can shut my computer down.
Is anyone familiar with this issue?
Thanks!

For starters lets try this .. Close FF, locate your profile main directory and the file "localstore.rdf", make a backup copy then delete the original file. Restart FF, you may lose some custom settings but easy to restore. Does it still crash?

Same window opens in Finder every time I log in

Any idea how I can prevent the pl.lproj window from opening every time I log in? Thanks!

Sorry about that! Yes, I should have mentioned it.
Anyway, I created a new admin account and as you suspected the window did not open at login. The account I'm logging in with is a network account and the "opening window" does not follow the account to other Macs.
I trashed the com.apple.finder.plist file and at login it created a new one but the window still opened. Sigh...

Message: "The database structure has been modified" every time I log to SAP

Hello,
"The database structure has been modified. In order to resume this process, all open windows will be closed". Every time I log to one of my companies in SAP Business One this message appears.
I haven't installed any new addons and made no changes in database structure (and any other user hasn't done any changes), but this message appears always when I log to company for the first time (when I try to log on another user or log to another company there is no message). Can anyone help me with this problem?
Best regards

I deleted an email and every time I log on to mozilla it starts to play

Every time I log in to firefox an email starts to play.
I had deleted this email and it no longer exists anywhere, except when I log on to firefox. It does not play when I log on to IE.
When I log off, it stops.
How do I get rid of the email?????

No, not thru web access; it is via the Outlook provided thru Microsoft Office.

How do I block a popup window that I have allowed to open on Firefox once? I now have the popup blocker set to block all sites, but the popup still opens every time I open Firefox or open (sometimes) a new tab.

How do I block a popup? I allowed this popup to open once. Now I have set the popup blocker to block all sites but this popup still opens every time I open Firefox and sometimes (usually) when I open a new tab.
I Have stopped and restarted Firefox multiple times.
I have rebooted the computer.
I have set the tools/options/content/block pop-up windows/exceptions to block all sites (no exceptions).
I have no other issues with Firefox.
I have Adblock plus (with (1) subscription) installed
I am currently using Firefox version 4.0 on Windows7 Ultimate.

Just to address the last point: check your History menu to see whether you have the Restore Previous Session option and use that if you can. If that is grayed out or doesn't restore everything, check the Recently Closed Windows and Recently Closed Tabs lists for other pages.
The unwanted window may be generated by an add-on. Try disabling ALL nonessential or unrecognized extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* "3-bar" menu 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.
Any improvement?
Here are some other things to check:
(1) user.js file that changes Firefox startup behavior and overrides your preferences. This article describes how to track that down and delete it if you have one: [[How to fix preferences that won't save]].
(2) Possible hijacked shortcut. Check the "target" of the desktop icon you use to start Firefox to see whether it lists the unwanted page. To do that:
right-click the icon > Properties > Shortcut tab
For 64-bit Windows 7, the Target should be no more and no less than this:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
(3) Possible undisclosed bundle items. If you have installed any free software recently, check your Windows Control Panel, Uninstall a program for surprises. If you click the "Installed on" column head to group by date, it is easier to spot bundled junk. Remove everything suspicious or unrecognized.
(4) Supplemental clean up scans. Our support article lists tools other Firefox users have found helpful: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]].
Hopefully that cures it.
