What happened to my tabs? My home page is gone - everything got wiped out :(

I opened up Firefox the other day and all of my startup tabs were gone

Is this about tabs from the previous session or about the startup (home) page?
You can check the home page setting:
*Tools > Options > General > Startup: Home page
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
If you lost tabs from the previous session then your best option would be to see if you can restore an older copy of the sessionstore.js file in the Firefox profile folder.
*Right-click: Properties > Previous Versions
*http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Previous-versions-of-files-frequently-asked-questions
You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)

  • What happened to the add to home page option for web pages. Can't find it.

    What happened to the add to home page option for web pages. Can't find it.

    Try stopping Safari followed by resetting your phone: double-tap the home button, locate Safari at the bottom (swiping if necessary), tap and hold until it wiggles, tap the minus sign.  Now reset: hold the on/off and home buttons until you see the Apple logo (ignore the off slider that appers first), then release.  If it still is missing you may need to restore your phone, which will put a fresh copy of the iOS on your phone (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414).

  • What happened to my Oracle Database Home Page ?

    Everything was working fine. Suddenly, the browser can no longer connect to the Database Home Page.
    What has happened. My Internet connection still works (I'm here). Nothing else was changed that I can tell.
    Please Help. Thanks.

    I believe I solved the problem - although I don't know how it happened.
    I went to Control Panel / Administrative Tools / Component Services and noted that the Oracle XE components:
    OracleJobSchedulerXE
    OracleMTSREcoveryService
    OracleServiceXE
    OracleXEClrAgent
    CracleXETNSListener
    were all running (except OracleJobSchedulerXE which doesnt offer a restart option).
    I stopped the OracleServiceXE and restarted it. I also started the MTSRecovery Service, ClrAgen and TNSListener.
    That seems to have solved the problem.
    Any idea how the service got turned off?

  • What happened to the tabs on top?

    Anyone know what happened to the tabs located on the very top of the window like the last version 3. In version 4 tabs are back below the bookmarks bar. Tabs on top rocked, whats up with that?

    Please refer to one of the many,many other threads in this forum on that topic. Tabs on top were only in the Safari 4 beta version, not Safari 3.
    Just scroll down the thread page under Safari and you will find all you need to know.
    Cheers

  • Firefox always launches with three tabs -- my home page, a month old site from Slate and Huffington Post. Even uninstalling and reintalling doesnt solve problem.

    Every time Firefox is launched, it opens with three tabs -- my home page, a month-old age from the slate website and the home page from the huffington post. EVERYTIME. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox and the problem persists.

    Hello Kenneth.

  • 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.

  • Just installing a few updates from the Mac App Store for mountain lion on my 2010 MacBook Pro, during this it made a noise and then the screen and keyboard went off, like it is off. What happened, is it off...or should I just wait it out?

    What kind of noise?
    The only things I can think of that make noise are fans and disks. Fans usually will not cause the computer to shutdown as you describe. My guess is your disk drive died. I hope you made a backup prior to start the ungrade.

  • My firefox home page is gone and something else is in its place

    When I was downloading a game, it gave me a new home page. My firefox home page is gone. I'd like it back. I won't mess around with those game things again.

    Firefox determines your current locale and presents pages in the local language.
    #You may need to (re)set the pref general.useragent.locale to the preferred language (e.g. en-US or en-GB) on the about:config page. See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/General.useragent.locale
    #*You can open the about:config page via the location bar, like you open a web site.
    #*Use the Filter bar at the top of that page to quickly locate the pref.
    #*If you travel frequently to other language locales, you may want to try this add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1333/
    #If you have the Firefox user interface (menu bar) in the wrong language then you can get the language version of your choice here: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
    #*Reinstalling Firefox won't affect the data in your profile folder (e.g. bookmarks and cookies and passwords), but make sure that you do not choose to delete files in the profile folder in the uninstall window.
    #If the Google or Yahoo page is in the wrong language then see:

  • When I open a new page, Firefox won't let me close it without closing altogether the website I am exploring. This has happened since the "update" and happened on multiple website. What happened to "close tab?"

    I used to be able to click "File" and "close tab" to close a page without closing a website. For a few weeks after the last Firefox update, I had to hit "exit" and that worked the same, but now it closes everything. Very irritating and time-consuming.
    How do I close just the one page/pdf/document that I am looking at without closing out the website or my browser altogether?

    Open the finder and click applications on the left sidebar.  Find mail and drag it back into the bar (dock).

  • How to set new tabs to home page when opened

    I have no problem setting up my home page, but new tabs open as blank pages. How do I set up Firefox to open new tabs to my home page, when I manually open a new tab?

    "Donations" to add-on developers are not required. Add-on developers do appreciate donations from users since they devote their time and efforts '''''free of charge''''' to develop the add-on(s). Donations also help pay for costs incurred in operating a website and some have online help forums to help their users with support questions.
    Tab Mix Plus is a great add-on, I use it and like it, but it is a bit "heavy"/large to install for just that one function. Tab Mix Plus performs many functions related to tabs and has many, many options that you can set related to tabs, including the one that your requested.
    <u>An add-on that is much smaller and is designed to perform that one function</u>, opening a tab with the page you specify, is New TabURL:
    *New TabURL: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/newtaburl/
    *After installation and restarting Firefox
    *#Open the options (Add-ons > Extensions, click Options next to New TabURL)
    *#Set your options and/or enter the URL you want to open in new tabs
    *#Click "Save"

  • TABS and home page continuity

    Hi
    Quick question about Tabs. How do I set it so that new Tabs open with my homepage. At the moment, for tabs beyond my first page I am getting advice "page not found"
    regards ral

    Hi,
    Safari->Preferences->General and type in the http:// address (URL) for Home Page.
    View->Customize Toolbar allows you to drag an icon called Home onto the toolbar so you can click it anytime and go to the URL you set in Home Page.
    In Safari, keyboard press Apple+T for creating a new tab and Apple+W to close it when active.

  • Open new tab with home page

    when i click on a new tab it want it to go to my home page not "new tab". Under tabs in options there is no option to set a new tab to open my home page.

    Open a new tab with the home page that you have set in Options > General:
    *CTRL+left-click the "Home" icon
    An Add-on that will open your selected page (set in the Add-ons options, see below) when clicking the New Tab ("+") icon:
    *'''''New TabURL''''': http://sogame.awardspace.com/newtaburl/
    *after installing, set the options for '''''New TabURL''''': Add-ons > Extensions, click the Add-on name, click Options
