When clicking the back button on some website I get a response in a drop-down stating "Firefox prevented this page form automatically reloading. Could you tell me how to fix this please

This applies particularly to CNN, when clicking onto a story at the home page, then clicking back to the home page. A black bar appears at the top of the screen, on the left side the message above and on the right side an "Allow" button and a X for closing that window. Clicking on the "Allow" results in the same notice being displayed.

  • When spanning new tabs (firefox) my users are asked to re-authenticate with pages already signed into. Can you tell me how to fix this issue for firefox users?

    With some research I found regedit setting called “TabProcGrowth” that allows tabs to span without re-authenticating with certain browsers. Can you tell me how to fix this issue for my Mozilla Firefox users? Our current version of Mozilla Firefox is: 24.5.0 (x86 en-US). This was first noticed with a product called Confluence that we use in our Tech Support area. Users are having to reenter their password every time they click on a new link in confluence. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thank you,

    Hi Bernie:
    As long as you are accessing your internal server on http:// or https:// then I would expect the normal rules to apply. To see whether some external requests are being blocked, you might try using Firefox's Web Console, Network tab.
    You can open the console in the lower part of a tab using either:
    * Ctrl+Shift+k
    * "3-bar" menu button > Developer > Web Console
    * (menu bar) Tools menu > Web Developer > Web Console
    Click "Network" on the top bar of the Web Console.
    Then use the address bar or a bookmark to launch Confluence in the same tab. Each request made by Firefox should be displayed along with the result. You can click a row for more details.
    When I look up "TabProcGrowth" it seems related to the Protected Mode feature of IE8 and newer, which is not (yet) applicable to Firefox. http://blogs.msdn.com/b/askie/archive/2009/03/09/opening-a-new-tab-may-launch-a-new-process-with-internet-explorer-8-0.aspx
    However, if Confluence is heavily reliant on plugins such as Flash or Java, that could be a factor because plugins are run out-of-process in Firefox. In that case I suggest checking with Confluence for suggestions.

    Backup and restore your software via iTunes. If the problem continues, restore as a NEW device. If this solves it, that means there is some corruption in your backup file. If the problem is still there, you should take it to the Genius Bar at an Apple Store for evaluation.

  • When i try to open firefox i get a message that says Windows has encountered a problem and will notify when there is a solution. Then you can click on the explanation and it says DEP will not allow it to open. Can you tell me how to fix this?

    I was able to install and have an icon on my desktop. When i click on it it automatically pops a box up that says: Firefox has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. Then it highlights an icon at the bottom to show what the problem is and it is DEP (data execution prevention. I tried a few suggestions there but it didn't work. So it said to see if there is a download version compatable with DEP

  • I hate the update of the bar. It has totally done away with being able to skip back several places in the browser; now I can only click the back button and go back one page at a time. I otherwise hate the new layout, too. How do I undo this?

    I can't choose a specific page to skip back to but must click the back button over and over to get back to where I want to skip to. The little headings "most visited," "getting started," "Youtube," etc. have changed. They look more colorful, but I hate how the home button is clear over to the right side of the page, etc. What was wrong with the way everything was before? I HATE this new update, and I didn't even want it.

    You can get the drop down list by either right-clicking on the back/forward buttons, or holding down the left button until the list appears.
    If you want the drop-down arrow you can add it with the Back/forward dropmarker add-on - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker

  • On logged in sites when i click the back button im no longer logged in until i refresh

    On sites where i am logged in, eg forums or sites where i have saved the layout such as the BBC website whenever i click the back button to go to the previous page i am no longer logged in and my preferences have been cleared and the page has gone back to its defaults state. if i refresh the page its all back to how i set it and i am once again logged in.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Friday evening/Saturday morning.

    Hello Jeni.
    That's how Firefox works. When you go ''back'' to a page where you were not logged in yet, you get logged off. Although it doesn't always work and if you refresh the page you get logged in again.
    The basis of this behavior is that clicking "Back" will take you to a page that is stored in cache, and Firefox doesn't have (in most cases) to redownload the page information again (this is good because it speeds up browsing). You can disable this behavior, but it will mean that every time you press "back", Firefox will re-load the page again, and it will not be instantaneous like it is now.

  • Old values are displayed when i click the back button of the browser

    Hi all,
    I am having a INPUT screen having 2 textfields and a "Confirm" button. When user enters values in these textfields and clicks on "Confirm" button, another CONFIRMATION page is displayed where these values are just displayed as h:outputText. But when user clicks the back button of the browser previosly entered values are getting displayed in the INPUT screen. My question is how to remove these values or set to null on click of the Back button of the browser?
    Thanks in adv.

    Hi,
    i believe this should handle the browser. For instance, you have to tell him with meta tags, not to cache the website. Until yet I didn't succeed in doing so!
    With kind regards,
    Lutz Steinfeld

  • When I have multiple tabs open I have to double click the back button. Is this normal?

    Running Windows XP Professional all latest updates. I can go back to previous page by closing current tab or by clicking twice on the back button. If I have no tabs open I can go back by clicking the back button once.

    Nope, that isn't normal.
    Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode?<br/> ''A troubleshooting mode.''<br />
    You can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut. Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut to open it again.''

  • First time going to a site where I do not have access and clicking the back button I'm returned to the root site instead of the site I started from

    Greetings,
    I have SharePoint 2013 enterprise using ADFS for authentication.  I have an issue where the first time going to a site where you do not have access and clicking the back button you're returned to the root site instead of the site you
    started from.
    ie:
    1) at site http://www.sharepoint.com/sites/finance/home.aspx
    2) browse to
    http://www.sharepoint.com/sites/finance/private/home.aspx
    3) receive a message: you do not have access to this site  ((oops went to the wrong location - I'll hit the back button))
    4) click the browser back button
    5) get returned to http://www.sharepoint.com/pages/home.aspx
    This only happens the first time browsing to a site that I do not have rights to, after this I can browse to the same site and hit the browser back  button and return to the correct site, or any other site that I do not have access to.
    Any ideas as to why this happens?  Ideas of where to start looking?
    Thanks

    Hi Robert,
    From your description, when you receive access denied message and hit back button in browser, it redirects you to the root site but not previous site. However, this just happens at the first time.
    You may try to use some tool or check log which can tell us how does it handle the request when you hit the button. And compare the issue time and non-issue time.
    I'd suggest you use Netmon tool:

  • IPhoto 6.0.5 crashes when clicking the Edit button

    On some of my albums....not all of them.... When clicking the Edit button or double clicking one of the photos in that album, to make it bigger so you can use the arrows to move throught the pictures, iPhoto crashes.
    It does this every time with certain albums. They are all jpeg, and the ones that are crashing worked fine before this last upgrade of iPhoto. Is there a known problem with this? I have looked around and seems as though people have had some problems similar to this but not exaclty the same.
    Is there something that can be done that I don't know about to remedy this?
    Any and all help/suggestions would be much appreciated.
    Thanks

    Scott:
    It may be a color profile issue. Download the Automator workflow "Embed sRGB Profile" file from Toad's Cellar and unzip it. Then export one of the problem files to the desktop and drop on the workflow application. Then import the file and see if it will edit OK. If so you can find the files in the Originals folder that are giving you problems and drag them onto the workflow application file. BUT, just in case make a temp backup copy of the iPHoto Library folder beforehand.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

  • Need to click the back button twice

    Hi all
    I'm having problems with a program. I have ALV grid and double clicking on a line calls a function that displays a detailed entry screen (dynpro).
    In that screen the user can use the data to call a function module to create BP from the given data.
    I now want to enable my users to go back to the ALV grid by clicking the Back button and when the function code is 'BACK' I do:
    leave to screen 0.
    But the user must press the back button twice before he can go back. If the user however just enters the detailed screen and presses the back button it works fine.
    Regards,
    Gunnar

    Hello,
    I had a similar problems few days ago. If the user must click back button twice in some cases it is because 2 screens are being created.
    What happens to me is that I had a Modul-pool, in this program I had 2 dynpros, one for input and the other to call in it the function-module REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY in order to show an ALV. When the ALV was shown the user should press back button twice in order to return to the first screen. This behaviour is because the ALV is shown in its own screen, so finally I had 3 screens instead of 2.
    What I did to solve the problem was to delete the dynpro which only purpose was to show the ALV. At last I had a dynpro for the input of the program, in the PAI of this dynpro I invoke REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY which shows the ALV in its own screen.
    I hope it will hellp you.

  • Why does Safari refresh the page when using the back button?

    Safari didn't use to do this.
    Even on these forums, when you hit the back button to go back exactly where you were at, if there are new posts, the entire page may have changed. I knew exactly the next post I wanted to look at before the page was refreshed. Now, I can't even find the post I wanted to read unless I scroll through the entire list again.
    I need to be able to go back to the page I was just on and not have it refresh.
    I need to go back exactly where I was.
    Safari can't even go back properly as it wants to go back near the top of the last page I was on.
    I need it to go back exactly where I was at.
    I have no idea what the engineers are thinking about this one.
    FireFox works properly when going back to the prior page.
    I have long lists on pages I work with.
    For example:
    1. through 1,000.
    If I am on reference number 500 on the previous page, when I hit back, it goes all the way back up to around 20 in the list.
    I have to then scroll manually page down to 500 where I was at.
    This is tedious, cumbersome and unnessesary.
    Safari was much better before it was updated to this horrible behavior.
    I don't know of any preferences you can change to change this odd behavior.
    Anyone know of anyway to stop this horrible behavior in Safari?
    This is like reading a book, but when you go back a page, the entire page may have changed and I have no idea where I was at.
    Pretty $iss poor in my opinion.

    Yes, that is correct.
    However, you can also use the mouse or trackpad to swipe back a page and it still refreshes the last page.
    Safari never did this back in Snow Leopard and maybe some versions of Safari in Lion.
    However, Safari in Mountain Lion always does this.
    It is very cumbersome using the "open link in new window" or "open link in new tab".
    It was much better just being able to click the back button or swiping to get back exactly where you were on the prior page.
    Hopefully more people will send Apple feedback on this.
    Thanks for sharing.
