When there are several tabs open, why does the search always take place on the 2nd tab (the first tab seems never to change from the home page) despite my selecting a different tab in which to do a google search?

I have Mozilla Firefox 10.0. When I open it, it correctly opens on the homepage in the first tab. Once I have another, or several, tabs open, no matter which tab is active, any google search I do immediately takes place in tab No 2. It doesn't seem to matter how many times I go to e.g. tab 4 to do a search (because I wish to compare with the webpage open in tab 2), yet it always now does the search in tab 2. This is very irritating. There must be some setting that has gone pear-shaped, but where/which? Any suggestions? Thanks.

Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there. <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 4.0+ 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 />
''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
''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 />

  • How to change the default JRE when there are several version of JRE in Sys

    How to change the default JRE when there are several version of JRE in System?
    i have installed j2sdk1.5.0 then installed j2ee1.4,then installed Weblogic6.1 which use jdk1.3
    Now the JRE is jdk1.3\bin
    When run class that was compiled with jdk1.5,throw:
    java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError
    How can i change the jre to 1.5?

    There is a workaround to move from 1.5 version to the older 1.4 version. But this could be specific to the browser setting the JRE version.
    Excerpts from sun docs:
    However, a user can still run older versions. To do so, launch the Java Plug-in Control Panel for the older version, then (re)select the browser in the Browser tab.
    Example:
    Assume you are running on Microsoft Windows with Microsoft Internet Explorer, have first installed version 1.4.2, then version 5.0, and you want to run 1.4.2.
    Go to the j2re1.4.2\bin directory where JRE 1.4.2 was installed. On a Windows default installation, this would be here: C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.2\bin
    Double-click the jpicpl32.exe file located there. It will launch the control panel for 1.4.2.
    Select the Browser tab. Microsoft Internet Explorer might still appear to be set (checked). However, when 5.0 was installed, the registration of the 1.4.2 JRE with Internet Explorer was overwritten by the 5.0 JRE.
    If Microsoft Internet Explorer is shown as checked, uncheck it and click Apply. You will see a confirmation dialog stating that browser settings have changed.
    Check Microsoft Internet Explorer and click Apply. You should see a confirmation dialog.
    Restart the browser. It should now use the 1.4.2 JRE for conventional APPLET tags.
    Details are here
    http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/deployment/deployment-guide/jcp.html
    My system (Windows XP) has the version 1.5_09 set as the default. However i just installed JRE 1.5_06 and would like to revert back to _06 as the default JRE..
    Will update if i find more information

    In Safari, when there are several windows open, I cant close the open windows. I push on the x but they dont close.

    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Or Quit the app completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    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.
    Then launch Safari and try again.

  • I cannot open a new tab. When I press the tab bar, sometimes it opens, but most of the times it won't. It is especially so when there are already 5 tabs opened

    I have a problem opening a new tab with FireFox 24.0.
    When I press the tab bar, sometimes it opens, but most of the times it won't. It is especially so when there are already 5 tabs opened.
    I use "checkCompatibility 1.3" and "Google Toolbar for FireFox 7.1.20110512W" as addons. There have been no problems until the previous version of FireFox.

    Thank you for the reply.
    It works fine with the safe mode. So it must be something to do with <i>checkCompatibility 1.3</i> or <i>Google Toolbar for FireFox 7.1.20110512W</i>.
    Both are necessary to run Google Toolbar on Firefox, and the fact is Google Toolbar is too convenient to be removed. So I have bookmarked a couple of blank pages and I right-click them to open new tabs. But it is so tiresome.
    I hope this problem will be fixed in the next version. FireFox without Google Toolbar is just a useless browser.

  • After using Tab Groups earlier today, now anytime I close FF with more than 1 tab open, FF does NOT ask me to confirm before closing

    After using Tab Groups earlier today, now anytime I close FF with more than 1 tab open, FF does NOT ask me to confirm before closing. FF always has asked me to confirm in the past and no settings were changed prior to trying the Tab Groups. Then when I reopen FF all the tabs that I had open are still there. I've tried refreshing FF and clearing history but that didn't work. It's almost as though FF thinks the window and tabs I have open are a tab group and it won't let me get rid of that group. How do I stop the Tab Groups now that I got them? Or is there something else going on? None of this was happening until I played with the Tab Groups this morning. I was curious what it was --- that's going to get me killed one of these days lol.

    Thanks. Somehow the "Show my windows and tabs" box had gotten checked. I know I didn't check that box and the "Warn me when closing multiple tabs" box has always been checked. Like I said, it was all working fine until I tried the tab groups so I'm wondering if maybe that checks the "Show my windows and tabs" box by default?
    Anyway, it's fixed now. Thanks so much!

  • Why do duplicate albums appear on my iPod Classic screen when there are no duplicates in my iTunes Library?

    Why do duplicate albums appear on my i{Pod Classic screen when there are no duplicates in my iTunes Library?

    It's probably going to be a capitalisation error. In other words, one or more tracks on the album has a lower case letter at the beginning of the album name while all the others have a capital letter. They can be difficult to spot.
    In iTunes, examine one of your duplicated albums carefully. You should be looking for a slight difference between the album title name. Look at the screenshot below, can you see the error in the album title?
    It is there...
    The title track (Left Of The Middle). Look at the capitalisation of the album name.
    Once you find you error in your album, re-type it (or copy-and-paste from one track to all the tracks) and then SYnc your iPod to iTunes. Does that cure it? If nto, let us know.

  • IPhone 4s has yahoo mail icon permanently on safari when there are no open pages

    My iPhone 4s using iOS7.0.2 has a Yahoo mail icon displaying permanently on the top of Safari when there are no open pages. The icon did not disappear even when I deleted my Yahoo mail account. The icon also has my Yahoo username displayed below it. Is there any way I can remove the Yahoo mail icon from permanently displaying on Safari? I cleared my history, cookies and data, but the Yahoo icon is still there.

    I have the same issue and koban4max's sugggestion doesn't work (well, it works, but you'll need to do it once a day.) I am surprised this hasn't been widely reported either as an iphone, Verizon or Yahoo issue. I tried various suggestions (deleting/re-adding account, moving messages to a new folder and changing password on computer/iphone, etc.) It will push for a while but stop pushing in a few hours or a few days. This leads me to believe somewhere in the interface corrupts the process. I would love to know if it's unique to Verizon, iphone 4S or IOS 5, or all of the above. The phone doesn't even fetch according to schedule, only when you are in the application. BTW, the Exchange push solution for Gmail works wonderfully.

  • After several years of use very satisfied with Firefox, recently loaded version (4.0.1) severely slows my browsing, and even my system, especially when there are pictures or videos. I said that this was not the case before and my system is Windows XP SP3.

    After several years of use very satisfied with Firefox, recently loaded version (4.0.1) severely slows my browsing, and even my system, especially when there are pictures or videos. I said that this was not the case before and my system is Windows XP SP3.

    I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
    When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
    At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
    I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

  • Has anyone had this issue. I created my song from itunes to garage band, took my iphotos to create a slide show and when I burned to idvd there are several pauses during playback?

    Has anyone had this issue. I created my song from itunes to garage band, took my iphotos to create a slide show and when I burned to idvd there are several pauses during playback?

    Hi
    SlideShow in iDVD has a 99 photo limit - more than this and all sorts of error occures.
    One can have more than one SlideShow on a DVD = X times 99 photos.
    or assemble SlideShows in a movie editor (no limit at least not under 650 photos)
    (only limit is Time in iDVD (movie time + MENU time --- 60 min or 120 min on SL-DVD and about twice on DL.-DVD )
    I use
    • iMovie up to HD6 - or -
    • FinalCut any version
    As they will give a better quality than iMovie'08 or 09 or 11 can do.
    Yours Bengt W

              is committed. If it cannot make such guarantee due to outstanding replies, it

  • Microsoft Excel cannot access the file "-". There are several possible reasons. Windows Server 2008 R2 with Microsoft Office 2010

    I have a problem with starting the Excel Application under a particular user (service account).
    I try to schedule this C# script through an application X (not Windows Task Scheduler. And this
    application will always use a service account to run services on the server). If I run the C# script in
    command prompt under the same user, it runs. Under the application X, which uses the exact same
    user, to initiate the C# script, it fails to open the Excel application (not sufficient permission?).
    This script calls application.Workbooks.Open(<ExcelFileName>,0,false,Type.missing....). At this line
    of code, it gives the following error:
    Microsoft Excel cannot access the file "...". There are several possible reasons:
    -The file name or path does not exist.
    -The file is being used by another program.
    -The workbook you are trying to save has the same name as a currently open workbook.
    I tried all the methods that I found online as follow:
    Create directory "C:\Windows\SysWOW64\config\systemprofile\Desktop" (for 64 bit Windows) or "C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\Desktop" (for 32 bit Windows).
    Changed the DCOM config for the Microsoft Excel application to include this user for Local/Remote Launch and Access.
    Enabled all macros in Excel application and set the Trust Center.
    Add the user to have full control on all folders that contain the Excel file.
    Under DCOM
    config, Microsoft Excel Application, if I modify the Identity tab to check on "This User" and enter the username/password to let Excel always run under that user. Then the application runs perfectly. However, other users can't run the excel application
    on their own with the following error: "Cannot use object linking and embedding". If I check "Use the launching user", then Excel can't be launched. No errors in the logs or events anywhere to check.
    Yet, still the same error. I think it's permission but I am not sure where and what to do for this to work.
    Now, normally, when I run this excel report, I can double-click on the file and it'd automatically run,
    save the new parameters into the current file and generate a new excel file (with date attached to the
    file name). That means there is a change (save) to the original file.
    Environment: Windows Server 2008 R2 and running Microsoft Excel 2010.
    I appreciate all your help!

    I am wondering if this has anything to do with having the user log into Excel.
    In point #5 above: Under DCOM config, Microsoft Excel Application, if I modify the Identity tab to check on "This User" and enter the username/password to let Excel always run under that user. Then the application runs perfectly. However, other
    users can't run the excel application on their own with the following error: "Cannot use object linking and embedding". If I check "Use the launching user", then Excel can't be launched. No errors in the logs or events anywhere to check.
    Because running with the launching user proposes an user to run the Excel application. However, I do not think there is any where that we can pass in the password for this user to Excel. However, this Excel has all the permissions to Excel application as
    well as the folders that have the Excel files.
    Please help!
    Thank you!

  • Joining 2 related records using PL SQL in Apex - Problems when there are more than 2 related records?

    Hi
    I am combining 2 related records of legacy data together that make up a marriage record.  I am doing this in APEX using a before header process using the following code below which works well when there are only 2 related records which joins the bride and groom record together on screen in apex.  I have appended a field called principle which is set to 'Y' for the groom and 'N' for the bride to this legacy data
    However there are lots of records where in some instances there are 3, 4 , 5, 6 or even 1 record which causes the PL/SQL in APEX to not return the correct data.  The difference in these related columns is that the name of the bride or groom could be different but it is the same person, its just that from the old system if a person had another name or was formally known as they would create another duplicate record for the marriage with the different name, but the book and entry number is the same as this is unique for each couple who get married.
    How can I adapt the script below so that if there are more than 2 records that match the entry and book values then it will display a message or is there a better possible work around?  Cleaning the data would be not an option as there are thousands of rows of where these occurrences occur
    declare 
         cursor c_mar_principle(b_entry in number, b_book in varchar2) 
         is

              where  mar.entry   = b_entry
              and    mar.book = b_book
