Whenever I open Firefox it opens in TWO windows instead of one...very odd! Why?

I usually open Firefox via an email, is that the problem?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== A few weeks ago and the recent updates haven't changed anything

That is this bug:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=531552 - Firefox 3.6b opens two windows when opening external links

  • When I open firefox, it opens a pdf file as well as home page - how do i stop this?

    Since upgrading to v5, when I open firefox, it opens a pdf file as well as my home page. I cannot see any setting or fields in "options" that can be causing this - how do i stop the pdf from opening?

    Why didn't you remove all three prefs.js files?
    You may have left one file prefs.js that is causing the problems.
    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.<br />
    See Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile:
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

  • When i first open firefox homepage (opens with google) after 3 seconds page freezes and cannoct be closed. i have to open seconed homepage to shot pc down. this has only happened since i installed firfox 4. what do i do to fix this

    when i first open firefox homepage (opens with google as set by firefox) after about 3 seconds the page freezes and cannot be closed or minimised. i have to open second homepage to shut pc down or continue to use pc. this has only happened since i installed firefox 4. what do i do to fix this

    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.

  • When i open firefox, a small "user toolbar" window opens on top right hand side, i dont want that.

    When i open firefox, a small user toolbar window opens in top right corner, please help as i dont want it, i close it but it takes to much of time to close and it hings up a bit evrytime.

    This could be a feature of an add-on. Could you check to see whether you have any unrecognized add-ons and disable (or remove) them. In particular:
    orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Add-ons > Extensions category
    Then restart Firefox and watch for the toolbar, which hopefully will not appear.
    You also could paste a list of your extensions here for review. You can copy them from this page:
    Help > Troubleshooting Information
    It's the second table, which appears below the Extensions heading.

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • How do I consolidate an Itunes music library on two windows computers onto one windows computer?

    How do I consolidate an Itunes music library on two windows computers onto one windows computer?

    Click here, pick the option which best fits your situation, open the larger library in iTunes, move the media files from the smaller one into the library in the open iTunes program window or the Automatically Add to iTunes folder, and then import the playlists. Any rented movies will only play on the computer they were originally downloaded to.

  • We have two iTunes accounts on one computer. Why is my music, apps, etc showing in my husbands account? home sharing is not selected

    We have two iTunes accounts on one computer. Why is my music, apps, etc showing in my husbands account? Home sharing is NOT selected. This recently became an issue when we added additional devices. Now we keep getting each other's apps!

    Se descargan aplicaciones para mi iPad 64 3G, las cuales en el momento de sincronizar no pasan a la iPad debido a que solicita una autorizacion para el ordenador la cual se autoriza con ID y el Password, esta orden se procesa y vuelve a solicitar nuevamente la autorizacion y asi sucesivamente.
    He intentado creando nuevas cuentas y desinstalando iTunes y volviendolo a instalar.
    Favor de orientarme en la solucion adecuada para el asunto comentado anteriormente.

    You wrote a query against tables we've never seen, containing data we can't possibly have any idea about and you expect us to be able to help you?
    Please go discuss this with someone in your organization who understands the data model and have them explain to you how it is supposed to work.
    Put yourself in our situation (forum volunteers) ... if we threw some arbitrary code with no explanation as to what it does, what the data model looks like and what's supposed to be happening, do you think you'd be very successful ?

  • When I first pick firefox to open two windows come up. one is welcome to firefox and it has a pop up box asking someting about shopping. the second window is the start page

    When I first open firefox, two windows open at the same time. Welcome to firefox with a pop up window and the second one is the mozilla firefox start up page. It is very annoying.

    Hi mjp80538,
    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!

  • Every time I load my igoogle home page opening firefox, it opens it in two tabs instead of one, and then AVG tells me firefox is using too much memory and I should close and reopen it; Why

    I open firefox using my igoogle home page and immediately it opens two igoogle tabs on top instead of just one how do I stop it from opening the second one? and then after about two minutes AVG tells me firefox is using too much memory slowing my machine and tells me to close and reopen fire fox...how do I fix that?

    Make sure that Firefox closes properly and that that there are no longer Firefox or plugin-container processes left on the Processes tab in the Task Manager. Otherwise session restore will reopen the page(s) from the previous session.

    I had the same problem and it was because of my firewall settings, which I had set to block all activity and forgot to reset it.
