Where to add DISPLAY=:0.1 to get second instance of Firefox to open on second screen

I have set things up using Firefox profiles so I can open a second instance of Firefox. I have even put a a launcher icon on the panel. However, I would like to have the second instance open on the second screen. I have found I can use the variable DISPLAY=:0.1 at the command prompt, but I would like to add the variable, or something that has the same effect to a file to make the launch on the second screen automatic.
Can somebody suggest the right code, and where to put it please?

Hi clay1905,
Thank you for posting your question, there are a few old solutions to this however I am not sure if they work in the updated version you are using:
*[http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=50500]
*[http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1594320]
The general theme looks like if you run a bash file from the launch pad to open one application, then sleep, then launch the second instance in the second display this could be done.
*How to run your first bash [http://www.tldp.org/LDP/Bash-Beginners-Guide/html/sect_02_01.html]
*run script from desktop shortcut: [http://askubuntu.com/questions/299052/how-to-execute-sh-script-from-a-desktop-shortcut]
I hope that puts you in the right direction.

I get multiple instances of Firefox that open and will not close automatically. What is causing this?

Sometimes I will click on Firefox and it does not open. If I go into task manager it shows that it is running but the program is not active on my desktop. Today I shut down 9 instances that did not automatically close.

Sounds like Firefox is "hanging at exit". That problem is frequently caused by an Extension or a Plugin. Read all of the following articles. 
NOTE: Establish a habit of exiting/closing Firefox with Firefox button > Exit or File > Exit to allow an orderly shutdown of Firefox and closing of all of the files that Firefox has open.

How do you get new tabs on firefox to open to your home page?

When I open new tabs in firefox they open to the blank "new tab" pg. How do i get them to open directly to my homepage on igoogle that opens when I start firefox?

You can do that by using an add-on such as [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/2221/ NewTabURL] or [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/777/ New Tab Homepage].

I have reinstalled 4 times and I still cannot get firefox to open in a screen I can see; it is transparent and I can see my background screen though hazy.

I have gone into every help thing I could find and tried everything I could but nothing changes. I hate chrome and IE but I am going to have to switch to them if I can't get it to work. One person who seemed to have a similar problem said something about reset but I can't find any place where I can reset firefox.
I am frustrated and have lost a whole day because of this and can't find any one real I can talk to.

Hold shift and double click the firefox icon, hit Reset Firefox.

After getting a malware, my Firefox stopped opening. Is there any way to restore it without losing my passwords, settings, and especially favorite?

Recently my computer was infected by a malware that deleted some DLLs and damaged Firefox, Opera and Google programs.
The other two browsers I reinstalled without any problems. But Firefox is my primary browser and I'm afraid of losing all my information.
Is there any way to restore it without losing my passwords, settings, and especially favorite?

cor-el posted a reply to your question here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/934304

When I select a link on a site and this opens a new instance of Firefox, the link page is blank; but OK when the link is displayed in a new tab on same instance of Firefox.

This happens on many sites eg just went to Virgin Media
http://www.broadband-finder.co.uk/broadband-directory/virgin-media/?li=3
and tried to click on one of the 3 More Info boxes (Just Broadband, Broadband and Phone,... etc). Each time I click the More Info box, a new instance of Firefox is opened with a blank page showing and 'Untitled' in the tab heading.
Is there a setting somewhere where I can stop these links opening a new instance - or at least display the information if they do?

* "Clear the Cache": Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"
* "Remove the Cookies" from sites that cause problems: Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

How do I stop the "Getting Started with Mozilla Firefox" tab from opening every time I open FF?

Every time I open FF, the "Getting Started with Mozilla Firefox" tab opens. I have checked and it's not in my homepage list.
If I open any additional windows, it doesn't open.
But, once I close all of them and reopen it again, the tab opens.
I've had a similar problem with a couple addons (ietab) doing the same thing.

about:config is typed into the address bar as if you were going to a web page.
It will popup a message warning you that you are messing with important stuff.
Just agree.

You should also provide a WEB-INF folder under pqr or xyz folder.
You should also provide a web.xml file under each WEB-INF folder.

I have Prem. Elements 12. I am trying to add audio media. I know where the audio files are located (using GET INFO while in iTunes), and when I try to add certain audio files, some are accepted and some are not. In one case, when I opened a particular folder, the song was not listed, even tho' the song is there when using Windows Explorer. This happens with mp3 and mp4 and just wav files. Some audio are accepted, most are not. I get that codec is not installed error message, too.

Are you running Premiere Elements 10 from a User Account with Administrative Privileges?
Is this a "it worked before but not now" or "it never worked before" type issue.
On the Windows side of things, application of Run As Administrator as well as the User Account with Administrative Privileges has been know

When I try to open the "markets" page on the Firefox hompage, it displays for 3 or 4 seconds and then drops off; I get a white screen; this does not happen with Explorer.

When I open "markets" from the homepage, it comes up but drops off after a few seconds and
I get a white page. This does not happen with Explorer. A similar but much more extensive
problem happened a month or so ago (I couldn't open attachments). I called Microsoft and the
fellow messed about with my computer for an hour or so, but ended up saying he couldn't help
me. However, when he went away, the problems went away.

If you have RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin '''extension''', disable/remove the RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin extension in the RealPlayer Preferences (RP: Tools > Preferences > Download & Recording) . Restart Firefox and test.
See Noah_SUMO's illustrated answer in this thread if the above is not clear: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/forum/1/557689?
The RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin '''extension''' adds some extra features like saving media files.
Be sure not to get confused with the RealPlayer '''plugin''' (Tools > Add-ons > Plugins) that plays media files.

Just updated my iphone. Now I can se I have two! iCloud accounts? One of them appears on my phone, and I have forgotten the password. When I try to add the other account, I get the message that this account is already added, but with the name of the first account where there is no available password. I have tried several times to reset the password, bun I don't get the information I need - I have no access to email. What can I do?

Hi, thanks for the suggestion. I have tried as you suggested, and when opening the "purchased" apps some have the icloud logo next to them, but I only have "OPEN" against "Find My iPhone". When opening it up, it goes through the same routine; needs to be updated before proceeding, and wouldn't update because I don't have IOS8.
Anything else I could try, or am I doomed!
All of your help is much appreciated, thanks

Ok, so I think I have found the cause of the problem.
I went to Tools -> Add Ons -> Plug -Ins
Under plug ins I found the zonealarm spy blocker plug in stub
Attached are images of enabled, disabled.
How do I get rid of that space all together, what I mean is, instead of having to choose between a "black space" and a "lego piece space", I want no space.
