When I delete a tab, next time I open Firefox it is back! I deleted it from Bookmards - How do I get rid of it permanently?

I have two tabs that I want to delete. I went to Show All Bookmarks, selected them on the list, held down the command key, clicked on Organize and deleted them. I exited Firefox. When I opened it again, the tabs that I had deleted in my Bookmarks were still there. If I clice the "x" on the tab, it disappears, but is there again when I re-enter Firefox.
How can I permanently get rid of them!!?

It might have gotten added to your "home page" setting -- you can have multiple home page URLs that open in separate tabs. This article has the steps to investigate that possibility or to clear your home page and set it from scratch: [[How to set the home page]]. Does that work?

Why cant i close and save? so the next time i open firefox the same sites come up.

Before i installed the latest firefox, a window poped up when i closed firefox asking what i wanted to do. save and close, just close or abort. after the update i only get 2 alternatives close or abort.
I want the last alternative back so i can close and save, and get the same sites next time i open firefox.

Firefox now always stores the old session which you can access by going to the History menu and selecting "Restore Previous Session".
If you always open the last set of tabs, an alternative approach is this:
# Click the orange Firefox button, then select options to open the options window
# Go to the General panel
# Change the setting "When Firefox starts" to "Show my windows and tabs from last time"

You can do that with the keyboard.
*<b>View > Zoom > Reset</b> (Ctrl+0 (zero); Cmd+0 on Mac)
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Zoom_text_of_web_pages
There may be an extension that has a reset zoom button.
*https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/search/?q=zoom
You can also create your own button and use this code to reset the zoom: <b>FullZoom.reset();</b>

When I click the Sections button then click on the 1st page I get a page that is titled "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet"! Where did it come from and how do I get rid of it. I have tried deleting and "dont save" but it comes back.

In Pages when I click the 'Sections' button then click on the 1st page I get a page that is titled "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet"! Where did it come from and how do I get rid of it? I have tried deleting and "dont save" but it comes back. It is a full page in some unknown language. The only thing I can decifer is 'cupy uf cak'. Rdal

Roger,
The icon is +Sections, not just Sections, as in "Add a Section". When you click that icon you get a section break and and a new section template, complete with preformatted text called placeholder text. The reason "Lorem ipsum" is there is so you can see what the format looks like. The reason that it is Latin gibberish is so you won't get hung up on, or distracted by, what it says. It's just a display of format. Select the "Lorem ipsum" text and start typing your content.

Some tabs keep coming back that I don't want - how do I get rid of them?

It is also possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
Delete the files sessionstore.js [2] and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
* Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

We have a long list of disabled/deleted users in AD Somehow, they are still appeared as active user in Sharepoint Online. How do we get rid of those list? Hope you can advice. Thanks.

SharePoint does not remove users from SharePoint permissions just because they were deleted/disabled in AD. This is to maintain referential integrity. In fact, when you delete a user from SharePoint, that user remains in the SharePoint content database,
just marked as deleted.
They do not have access to SharePoint given their account is deleted/disabled. But as far as automatically managing this, I'm not aware of a tool. On-prem there is Metalogix ControlPoint which does a great job of this, I haven't explored the O365 options.

I have several tv episodes stuck in my downloads on my iPad. I receive an error, unable to download when I try to resume downloading. I can't clear them out of the download queue. How do I get rid of these from download?

You can always finish the downloads in iTunes on your computer and then the TV Shows to the iPad. Launch iTunes and go to Store>Check for available downloads. Finish the downloads and then sync the iPad.
As far as trying to finish the downloads on the iPad .....
Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try to download again.

I need to free up storage on my iPhone 4s to do an update. I have turned off my photo stream, but when I go into Usage Settings, it says that photo stream is using 3.7gb of space. How do I get rid of this?

iCloud is not designed to "store" photos (as in long term storage). iCloud can be used to sync photos from one device to another (photo stream) and to store a backup of the camera roll. But that's pretty much it.
Camera roll is the group of all photos taken by the device (but not other photos synced to the device from another source). Your extra storage on icloud will do you no good. The recommended way of storing photos on a device is to sync them to a computer.
So, your questions..
1) You don't/can't
2) No, because of 1.
3) On a computer, deleting large groups of photos is relatively painless. not so on a device.
4) You can't access photos on iCloud because they can't be store in icloud. You can't view/access photos in a backup on icloud unless you restore a backup to a device.
Read this... import photos to your computer...

TS3899 When I delete email the next time I open mail the deleted emails are back so I delete again. They come back sometimes at least 5-6 times. I have deleted the account and added it back and changed settings several times. What is wrong??

My emails keep coming back after being deleted up to 5-6 times. Why do they keep coming back every time I open my mail? I have deleted my email account and added back and also changed settings. It still does it.

Log into your webmail on a browser and delete them from there.

AFter installing Firefox yesterday to a Mac Airbook, I cannot get rid of the install icon that is on the desktop - Ejecting doesn't work as it reappears the next time I open Firefox.

Usually the install icon is ejected and the application lives in the applications folder. Not this time. When I eject the icon from the desktop, the next time I open FF, the install package reappears in a window. ??

One reason why this would happen: the Firefox icon that you see on your Dock actually opens Firefox from the disk image and not from the "Applications" folder.
To verify this, control-click on the Firefox icon in the Dock and then select "Show in Finder". In the Finder window that opens, check the path. Is it your "Applications" folder or is it the path to the install disk image? If it is path to disk image, remove the icon from Dock and then drag the icon from "Applications" folder to the Dock.
Edit: Note to myself - submit answer immediately after typing it :)

In the library there is a cirlce with a exclamination point next to a random number of songs. What does it mean and how do I get rid of it?

In the I tunes library next to a random number of songs there is a circle with an exclamation point. The songs won't play and how do I get rid of this and what does it mean?

Hi rjs317,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like there are some songs that iTunes isn't able to locate, the songs may have been moved to another folder or disk. The article linked below provides more information about the exclamation point symbol and provides suggestions that will resolve most missing media issues.

Why do I keep getting a 2nd tab every time I open Firefox for the Firefox Start Page?

Since upgrading to Firefox 4.0.1, whenever I open Firefox it goes to my start page, but also opens a second tab for the Mozilla Firefox Start Page. Since I do not use that page, I have been trying to figure out how to stop it from being there automatically, but have not been able to figure it out.

I started getting the error on my iPhone 5 (iOS 7.1.x) several weeks ago - if not a month ago. Today I finally decided to run through a wholesale sign-out/sign-in process on all my devices (iMac, MacBook, iPad 1, iPad 3 and iPhone5) and it worked!
I signed out of iMessage/Messages on all devices. I also deleted my iCloud accounts on all my devices (make sure you tell the software to keep local copies when you are prompted - relax, it all stays in the cloud, too) Then I signed back in to iMessage/Messages and then re-added iCloud accounts all around. I just sent a message with a photo attachment and did not get the "Not Delivered" message - yay!
(FYI - even though I received the error every time I sent a message with an image attachment, the message still went through - very, very happy, though to finally get rid of the message...)

Every time I start the internet two tabs open, the firefox welcome page and my normal search page. How can I get rid of the firefox tab as I don't want this everytime I open the internet

How can I turn off the Firefox tab before it opens. At the moment everytime I start the Internet two tabs open. I want to turn off the firefox tab before it opens.

Hi davesummers,
You should look at [https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Firefox+has+just+updated+tab+shows+each+time+you+start+Firefox this article about that specific issue] and the article [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved Preferences not saved]. These should give you all the information you need!
If that doesn't work:
# Type about:config in the address bar
# Click ''I'll be careful, I promise'' if prompted
# In the Filter input field type ''startup''
# Double click on startup.homepage_override_url
# Delete the text string and click ''OK''
# Close Firefox and reopen the window to verify that it has worked.
Hopefully this helps!

Firefox update page keeps opening in a new tab every time I open Firefox. How do I stop this?

Every time I open up Firefox, the update checking window opens first, then I get 2 tabs that open. One is my home page, the other is the page that opens after a new version of Firefox is installed. How can I get the Firefox update page to stop opening? I had the same thing happen with the "Download Helper" add-on. The only way I could get it to stop was to disable it. I am running windows 7 and Firefox 9.
