When I open certain websites I use frequently(like financial trading sites), they seem to close automatically after about an hour. How do I keep them open until I decide to close them?

I recently installed 4.01. Now when I open Firefox, it only seems to stay open for about an hour or so, and then closes automatically.
How do I fix this and keep it open?

That may have been coded on those websites and is done automatically via JavaScript. If it didn't happen previously then it is possible that the used code doesn't work in previous Firefox version. Many of such sites do that and one hour looks to me as already quite long if you leave a page unattended.

HT1689 I have purchased some app's like Whatsapp, Flashlight and more from App Store and after about 3 days of usage, all refuse to open up. I have received acknowledgement of payment via email. What should I do to reinstate them?

Try to rename the cert8.db file in the Firefox profile folder to cert8.db.old or delete the cert8.db file to remove intermediate certificates that Firefox has stored.
If that helped to solve the problem then you can remove the renamed cert8.db.old file.
Otherwise you can rename (or copy) the cert8.db.old file to cert8.db to restore the previous intermediate certificates.
Firefox will automatically store intermediate certificates when you visit websites that send such a certificate.
If that didn't help then remove or rename secmod.db (secmod.db.old) as well.
You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:

Why am I getting a "Opening tweet_button.html" pop-up when I open certain websites?

Just downloaded new Firefox version & when I open certain websites I get a message saying I'm attempting to open a tweet_box.html (which I am not, I'm just opening pages from my bookmarks), and do I want to open or save it. Multiple boxes open for each site (3-5). Not sure where to turn this off??

I noticed this after the 4.0.1 update. I also have people in my office reporting the problem on a multitude of computer systems all using 4.0.1. I've confirmed it's not any extensions while loading a fresh Windows 7 SP1 on a test box and loading 4.0.1. 4.0 doesn't appear to be having this issue. I tried changing the html (aspx) file to be opened with Firefox, it ended up opening 60 tabs and crashing the browser. However, I no longer get the popups after restoring my session. Though the tweet_button.html is not loading on the page correctly.

When I load certain websites the the writing is all squashed up. I correct this by changing the character encoding setting. I am using the latest Apple Mac machine. Thanks in advance

Thanks for that information!
I'm sure I will be calling AppleCare, but the problem is, they charge for the phone calls don't they? Because I don't have money to be spending to be on the phone with a support service.
In other things, it seemed like the only time my MacBook was working was when I had Snow Leopard without the 10.6.8 update download that was supposed to be done to prepare for OS X Lion.
When I look at the information of my HD it says that I have 10.6.8 but that was the install that it claimed to have failed and caused me to restart resulting in all of the repeated problems.
Also, because my computer is currently down, and I've lost all files how would that effect the use of my iPhone? Because if it doesn't get fixed by the time OS 5 is released, how would I be able to upgrade?!

Safari will not open certain websites

Aloha,
I'm new to mac, and so far so good. The problem is that I can't get safari (or firefox) to open certain websites. The one that bugs me the most is https://www.navo.navy.mil/products/geo.htm . I use it to get weather information that is not available in more mainstream sites.
It is a military product, and what I should get is three windows/frames/boxes that
when you click one thing, it gives you options for the next box, which opens information that you want.
This site works, in pc no problem (win98, win2000, XP, running firefox, ie or opera). Is there a work around to this problem? Is there another browser that will open this site up in mac?
I've tried to find this information elsewhere to no avail. In my business it's essential information.
Help please!
Oh, and how do I find out what version os I'm running?
Mahalo Chris

Hi Chris,
Welcome to Discussions.
I'm not sure what the Navy site is supposed to look like, but it appears to load ok in both Safari 3.0.3 (public beta for OS X 10.4) and Camino 1.5.3. Here's a screenshot of what I see:
I can't seem to access any data though as each search tells me the service is temporarily unavailable (is that expected?). What do you see when you try to enter this website?

Safari won't open certain websites

I am sorry if this already has a thread but I couldn't find it. My question is whether anyone can give me some advice about how to get over the problem of safari not opening certain websites. I have followed Apple's suggestion's to add "index/html" following the address but it does not work. They also suggest to contact each websites adminstrator which I don't have the time as there are a number of websites in which I have encountered this problem. Also, it seems to be a deficiency of the Safari rather than the other websites. How do I get over this obestacle? TX!

I didn't want to start a new thread, but I just experienced something very strange.
First of all, I installed Leopard 36 hours ago, and except for a small email issue, it's been great. Until this...
I was on my own website, when it suddenly said it couldn't open my page because it couldn't find the server. I checked with my host, and everything was fine. I tried going there with an old version of IE, and I got right on. Tried again with Safari, and no dice. I studied the addresses to see if anything was different, and noticed that in IE, there was no "www." in the address. So, I deleted the www from the address in Safari, and it found the website. However, all the images were X's because their address starts with a www.
This lasted about 10 minutes, and then everything was fine. During that time, other websites seemed to work fine.
My head is starting to hurt again.

Firefox downloads a ".php" file when I browse certain websites. I'm on a Mac and running OS X 10.6.4

Firefox is automatically downloading ".php" files when I browse certain websites.
Without permission, it just simply downloads the files and prompts me to indicate the program I would like to open the file with.
I work for a school district and Firefox 4 was installed in 4 other computers and it did the same thing with all of them.
I then reverted to the previous version of Firefox and continued to have the same problem.
Please advise

Hold down the shift key when you launch an app in Lion to "discard previous windows".

Updated latest platform SE 7 U51 10.51.2.13 bit not able to open certain website.

Hi,
I have updated my Java with latest version SE 7 U51 10.51.2.13 bit not able to open certain website.
Please let me know now what to do so that I can open the website - www.federalbank.com.
Thanks & Regards,

Hi!
Thanks for getting in touch with us here at Mozilla Support. I'll do the best I can to assist you.
Can you post a screenshot?
Please see [[How do I create a screenshot of my problem?]]
Once you've done this, attach the saved screenshot file to your forum post by clicking the '''Browse...''' button below the ''Post your reply'' box. This will help us to visualize the problem.
Upon visiting the site, I can see that there is just a simple page with Federalbank.com at the top and no links. It's a unused website apparently. I don't understand why it would need Java to run anything from there since there is nothing on there. Is this your site?
See my screenshot below.

@[email protected], I'm surprised that page worked in earlier versions of Firefox. It uses a script to click on links, which has not worked for a long time as far as I know.
There are at least two add-ons that can take actions on multiple links. I haven't tested either of them, but you could check them out:

DriveReadySeekComplete errors are either:
- IDE controler failure
- Bad cables
- Bad harddisk
Out of these 3, the last one sounds the most reasonable with nowadays harddrives. And yes, your system will hang when all your important processes are hanging while trying to do disk I/O.
What windows does is switching back to PIO mode and never report anything, until you hit the nice BSOD telling you to replace the floppydisk in drive C...
