When loading yahoo home page, back/forward arrows on top stories are missing( I do not mean toolbar back/forward) Don't have same problem when opening thru ie, or aol

Make sure that you allow pages to choose their colors and that you haven't enabled High Contrast in the Windows Accessibility settings.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

I cant get my home page back. it ways i have something open when i try to "RESET FIREFOX" HELP!!!

Please help me. I cant get the homepage back even when i try to "RESET FIREFOX" it just says its embarrassed and im old and i have no idea what to do?? I would appreciate any help. God Bless, jeri

Sorry, it's a little confusing. You get the "embarrassed" screen if Firefox crashed and isn't able to automatically restore your previous session.
If you unselect the old windows and tabs, Firefox should start up with your home page after that.
Or does it happen every time you quit Firefox and start it again?
What page do you want as your home page? You can check the setting in the Preferences dialog. These articles describe the steps:
* [[Startup, home page and download settings]]
* [[How to set the home page]]
If Firefox is ignoring your home page setting and showing a different page, it could be caused by one of your add-ons, maybe one that snuck in unexpectedly.
You can review your extensions and disable unknown or unwanted ones on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Command+Shift+a
* "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions.
When you first get Firefox, it searches your system for extensions, so you might see something associated with your security software. But generally speaking, extensions are optional and you do not need to enable any of them unless you find them useful.

Since installing iCloud I am in able to sync my iTunes library to my iPhone 4, songs are missing the playlist are incorrect and when I try and play music the cover are and songs do not match. HELP anyone one else have this problem?

Do I need to go to the Apple store to fix this?

The sort fields should generally be empty unless you've putting in custom values to sort solo artists by their surnames. You can apply common changes to thousands of tracks at once, just don't apply the wrong change because there is no undo.
It is a good idea to backup before undertaking large scale changes. See this backup tip for a suggested approach.

How do I get back my AT&T Yahoo Home Page and Tool Bar?

I am a senior citizen with little computer knowledge. I cannot cope with changes to my home page because I do not have the knowledge/skills to undo the changes your program has installed.
AT&T is my Internet Service Provider. Firefox is my browser. Right? When I installed the newer version of Firefox it usurped my AT&T Yahoo Home Page and Task Bar. I want my old home page and task bar back.
I used system recovery to go back a couple hrs. prior to when the new Fire Fox was installed and lost Firefox & At&T. Was in a great state of frustration when I couldn't get system recovery up after going to control panel. System recovery finally popped up again and I went forward to after installation of new Fire Fox and have system up again.
I am unable to read up on new Fire Fox program now. All I want is my old AT&T Yahoo Home Page back with their Task Bar. I can learn new Fire Fox as time permits.
For a non-profit organization I find Fire Fox quite aggressive. That is good when mobilizing us to write or call Congress but not to take over my Home Page.
Will have to admit new Fire Fox sure is faster.
I do want to commend you for taking a stand against what Congress is trying to do and also for your non-intrusive, not obnoxious way of asking for donations. You help inform us and let us know of your need and anyone that is not a free loader with a conscience, I think, would make a donation according to what one can afford. Keep up the good work and the good fight..........please do help me restore my home page back to AT&T with the old task bar.
I appreciate all the help you can give me. Please excuse this long note.
Blessings, Helen
Added Note: AT&T home page returned. Still need Tool Bar. Troubleshooting information from Firefox help for Tool Bar below. Also info to restore Refresh and Home icon below.

This is the answer from Firefox Help to get Tool Bar back up:
Why are the menus (File, Edit, View, etc.) missing?
If you're using Windows 7 or Windows Vista, you now have an orange Firefox button that takes the most common functions and puts them in one menu.
To temporarily show the old style menus, just press the Alt key.
To have them shown all the time, right-click on an empty section of the Tab Strip and check Menu Bar in the pop-up menu.
Menu Bar - Win
Pressing the Alt key didn't work for me but the latter instruction did the trick.
Check the Navigation Bar too on the pop-up menu if you want your Refresh and Home Icons to show. It took quite a few right-clicks for me before the pop-up menu I needed came up so keep trying until the right menu comes up.

Why did firefox change yahoo home page. Now different from IE

For some reason the Yahoo home page which I always use has been changed on Firefox. On IE it is the good old home page that I not only like but was used to. I prefer Firefox as my browser but would like the regular Yahoo home page back. Any ideas?

I have the same problem too. I had the same problem about two months ago and someone on here told me what to do. Unfortunately I did not write it down so i don't remember. I've tried, tools-options - advance - general - unchecked use hardware acceleration when available...it did not work. Yahoo main page looks perfect on IE, on Firefox it's a mess. Someone please help.

I could not exit Safari so had to Force Quit but when I open it goes right back to the Yahoo home page that would not close. There was a little light under the Safari icon which told me that Safari was still running. Any ideas??

I could not get out of my Yahoo home page in Safari on my Imac. I had to force quit but when i opened back up the little light under the Safari icon was still on and when i tapped icon I was right back to the Yahoo page which would not close. Any ideas???

Quit Safari (by force if necessary.) Relaunch it by holding down the shift key and clicking its icon in the Dock. That will stop the page from reloading automatically.

When i start Firefox ( 5.0.1 ) it loads the home page fine but along with it, it starts playing a video i watched earlier on youtube and it is invisible ( no where in tabs ) and i can just hear the sound. After playing the video one time it stops.

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.
First: Try a clean install, (you have had a none standard version installed previously) 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
Second: try a New Profile
*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

I have a customized Yahoo as a home page, but while browsing, Firefox returns it to the general Yahoo home page and I have to "sign in" to get the customized page back.

I have a customized Yahoo home page which opens when I log on.
Whenever I move to the Yahoo mail, I have to "sign in" with Yahoo in order to get back to the customized Yahoo home page. I don't mind doing that when I use the Yahoo mail system, but recently, whenever I switch from FireFox to another browser, when I return to Firefox, I am returned to the Yahoo general page and I have to "sign in" to get back to the customized version of my home page.

I would like to delete this program and go back to yahoo home page.

I just want to delete firefox and go back to my yahoo home page. I cannot understand this program and I cannot get my bookmarks back that have all my bill information.

In order to set up your Yahoo page as your Home Page, refer to this help article on "[https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How%20to%20set%20the%20home%20page?s=home+page&r=0&as=s How to Set Up a Home Page]".
Not sure how you lost your Bookmarks, but this help article on "[https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Lost%20Bookmarks?s=recovering+bookmarks&r=0&as=s Lost Bookmarks]" may help.

The latest verison of firefox is so screwed up it takes 110MB of ram just to load my home page, how do I go back to eariler verison of firefox thats more efficent

Firefox has worked fine for me until the latest update, with new update it takes 110mb of ram just load my home page which is google, I have a older computer that only has 256mb so when firefox uses almost one half of my ram just load it's self I can barley even do a search of any kind much less actually load a webpage.
I want to know how or what I need to do to get earlier version of firefox that's not such a hog on the memory.

Sorry, if resetting your homepage in Firefox doesn't work or that change is only temporary until the next time you use your PC or restart it, you need to uninstall that Comcast Toolbar from your PC. I don't know how or where that Comcast Toolbar for Firefox is installed, so you'll need to figure that out yourself.
The first place to look is the Windows Control Panel > Add / Remove Programs, and it is there '''Remove''' it.
Second place is in the Firefox Add-ons Manager tab - '''{ Ctrl + Shft + A }''' - if you find it there, '''Uninstall''' it from Firefox.
If you are able to get rid of that Comcast Toolbar and still have problems with not being able to set your choice for a homepage, let us know. There are a couple of places that may have been messed with by that application, like a user.js file or the prefs.js file.
I'm a Comcast user, too, although I have had this cable service for over 10 years now, with the two previous owners of the franchise for this area before Comcast bought out AT&T Cable. All three companies recommended that I have their "software" installed and I refused it each time. I told them if it was "required", they could close my account, that I would go elsewhere.

Firefox 15 does not always load my home page when it starts up.

Started my computer. Clicked on the Firefox icon to start Firefox. My preferences include loading my home page (an html file on my computer) when Firefox starts. I have also set browser.newtab.url to the same thing.
Some of the time, a blank page shows where my home page should show.
My home page should have loaded.
If I click on "new tab", the new tab always seems to load my home page properly. It is only when I first start up Firefox that this problem may occur.
Since this is an intermittent problem, and there is a work-around (clicking on the "home" icon), this is undoubtedly a low-priority bug.

Since the time of Sea Monkey and Netscape, this problem has not arisen for me. It did not happen in Firefox 12. Only when I upgraded to Firefox 15 did this problem start happening. To me, a retired computer programmer, this feels like a regression. I'd guess at either an uninitialized vairable or a race condition.
In any case, Firefox should be able to handle being closed by clicking on the x in the titlebar. I shall continue doing so.
There has never been a hang at exit for me, so that is not something I will pursue.
In addition, since the problem did not occur ever until Firefox 15, I have done the following:
sudo yum downgrade firefox xulrunner
Both are now at firefox 12 level.
To keep things at that level, I've added to /etc/yum.conf the following:
exclude=firefox, xulrunner
I'm certain that my recent actions to downgrade will solve the problem and show that this is a regression.

Everytime i go back to yahoo home page i have to enlarge it.how can i prevent this.

everytime i go to my yahoo home page i have to enlarge it from the time before. is there anyway to keep it the same?

How do I get my home page back after browsing?

I use BT Yahoo as a home page. When I browse or use email I can't return to the home page. The back arrow disappears. I have to close and reopen Firefox to get the home page back. Any solutions??

*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Firefox+has+just+updated+tab+shows+each+time+you+start+Firefox
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page - Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' symbols

How do I get news stories I click from my Yahoo home page to open in a new tab?

At one point, whenever I clicked on a news story on my Yahoo home page the story would open in a new tab, leaving the home page unchanged. When I updated Firefox, this feature was eliminated. Is there a way to turn it back on?

Hmm, this isn't a built-in feature of Firefox, but here are a couple possibilities:
(1) Maybe Yahoo has a setting for this, but it is stored in a cookie and the cookie got wiped out somehow?
(2) Maybe one of your add-ons has a setting for this, but the add-on was disabled during the update because it needs to be updated for Firefox 30?
You can check whether any of your extensions are disabled or need updating on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Command+Shift+a
* "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. The disabled ones appear toward the bottom on a gray background.
To check for extension updates, at the top above the list, click the "gear" button, then Check for Updates.
Anything relevant there?
The "manual" methods for opening a link in a new tab are:
* hold down the Command key while clicking the link
* "middle-click" the link with a mouse scroll wheel
* right-click the link > Open Link in New Tab
If command+click doesn't work, this can indicate that a script attached to the link and is overriding normal Firefox behavior.
