When I click on FILE/EXIT on any open browser, Firefox doesn't just close that window, but all open windows as well.
Al open Firefox windows, that is.
OS is Windows XP Home Edition SP3
This is actually really poor usability. No other software does this. eg- if I have 3 instances of Word open, clicking File/Exit in one of them doesn't affect the other two.
ie- the issue is that Firefox is going against the general Windows convention adopted by pretty much all other software packages.
ie- Really Irritating!

Trying to redeem a free download for a song from KLove. When I get into my acct & try to redeem it, it just keeps bringing up the "sign-in" box. When I click the button on KLove's webpage to redeem it takes me to that page but does the same thing
Get the redeem code from the KLove page:
http://www.klove.com/music/store.aspx
...and enter it into the Redeem Code box in the iTunes Store.
You will have to sign in to your iTunes account.
It worked fine here. If that doesn't work for you, let us know what went wrong. -
example, I was downloading 74 mb file and as soon as I close firefox window my 74 mb file was downloaded to that size upto which it has been downloaded say 1 Mb for example..
You can set the pref browser.download.manager.quitBehavior to 2 on the about:config page.<br />
That will make Firefox ask for confirmation if you want to cancel the download if you close Firefox.
See:
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.download.manager.quitBehavior
To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />
*Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
*Preferences that have been modified show as bold (user set).
*Preferences can be reset to the default via the right-click context menu if they are user set
*Preferences can be changed via the right-click context menu: Modify (String or Integer) or Toggle (Boolean) -

I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:

If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer? -
I was trying to clean up my desktop, and inadvertently switched all my icons on my desktop. When I click on file a, file b opens and so on, regardless of the extension type. Is there any way to fix this?
I use
Chronosync (http://www.econtechnologies.com/pages/cs/chrono_overview.html)
and
Dropbox (https://www.dropbox.com/)
Both work very well. The former I use for manual, one-way synchroniziation of (nearly) entire systems. The latter for automatic syncing of very active directories through local and shared online storage. -
Please advise how to burn a collection on a CD - When I click on File then burn to CD - I get:To burn CD you require a CD writer yet I have one - which I have used many times with another package. Also where are the pictures that I have put into a collection stored? I cannot find them. I can display them so they have to be stored somewhere in a file or folder etc...I am retired and very new at using this Adobe photoshop edition 3.2 Thank you for your help I am desperate.
Once the tracks are in your library, you can right-click and use the command Get Album Artwork. This command will attempt to match your track(s) to the item in the iTunes Store, and get the cover art.
If that command does not succeed, you will need a copy of the art in .JPG format, either by scanning your CD cover, or by getting it from the web. Once you have the art, right-click the track, choose Get Info, go the Artwork tab and paste it in. -

I have an Ipod touch 6 and can't updated apps. When I click update, nothing happen. Any clue?
Thanks,There is no iPod Touch 6. The latest generation is iPod Touch 5. Perhaps you mean you have an iPod running iOS 6.1.6. If so, you have a 4th generation iPod which cannot update past 6.1.6. A 5th generation iPod can run iOS 7

We are using apple tv to try to access our itunes account on the computer. We see our library of music but when we click on the song it searches for a long time and then says that it cannot access the itunes store. Any ideas on what we are doing wrong?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
Restart your router.
Reset the Apple TV (Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings)
Restore the Apple TV (Settings > General > Reset > Restore) -
I can't print. When I go to file-print, nothing happens. My printer is working just fine with IE and everything else.
Try the Firefox SafeMode. <br />
''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
# You can open the Firefox 4/5/6/7 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 (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />

I have upgraded to the latest firefox v7.0.1 for windows, when i click on its icon it doesnt open up? I uninstalled it and then reinstalled it but nothing happend it still doesnt work?
Sorry you are having problems. First of all try Fifrefox's safemode.
*[[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]]
If that works post back for further advice.
Next step, if safe mode did not work.
<u>First: Try a clean install, <sub>(you have had a none standard version installed previously)</sub></u><br /> that involves deleting the program files. Then if necessary try troubleshooting by creating and using a clean empty Firefox profile.
See
* this recent post [/questions/940399#answer-377134]
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Clean_reinstall
<u>Second: try a New Profile</u>
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Manager#Creating_a_new_profile
* this will be an additional profile, it is still worth backing up any existing or currently working profile on a regular basis
**[[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]
* Until you are absolutely confident about the repercussions I suggest
** always use an empty folder when creating a new profile
** never delete or rename profiles, just disable or remove shortcuts
** after creating a new test profile open it and check for any addons or plugins that may be have been included by default -
When I put my mouse over the firefox icon in the lower tray it shows small pictures of the home page but when i click on these they will not open to a full page. I am using windows 7. This problem just started today. I can use internet explorer without a problem. Thanks for any assistance you can give. I contact HP and they said to contact your support as they only support internet explorer.
below is what I get with the dev.jeffersonscher.com etc. url. But what do I do with this information? I can launch safe mode, but I still get only the 2" icon/window of Firefox.
