Why after upgrading to FF 11.0 , thereafter when I open Firefox, it opens 14-17 additonal Firefox windows ?

The only other thing I notice is that it is opening urls that I had accessed in the recent past.
It would be helpful it you would include a bullet point list of the 'the more information' that you would like. For instance does it matter what kind of system firefox is running on, or what OS, or what extensions are installed, etc.
P.S. Having moved through the page I see below that my guesses have automaticly been added.

It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

    Double-tap on the Home button. You will see a preview of the app above the actual icon. Slide the preview up to kill it.

    Okay, I figured it out.
    Shoulda just tried this before I posted in Discussions...
    I deleted iTunes (completely), and reinstalled.

  • Why after "placing" a PS CC image in ID CC can't I open it in PS CC (while still in ID) to make some

    Why after "placing" a PS CC image in ID CC can't I open it in PS CC (while still in ID) to make some corrections by double clicking and holding down the alt button?

    Hi,
    For Photoshop CC to open up by default on double clicking on an image (with Alt key pressed), Photoshop CC should be the default application to open the image file. Right click on image file on your system and select Get Info. In the "Open with:" field select Photoshop CC and click on Change All button just beneath it.
    Now try double clicking on any image(with Alt key pressed) placed in InDesign , it should open in Photoshop. Please let me know if this works for you or not.

    I am running firefox 23.0.1. I just upgraded to evernote 5.0+.
    When I try to add webclipper 5.7 to firefox I get the error
    Firefox can not modify the needed file
    I could not locate the files referenced in the answers presented.

    Firefox no longer unpacks an extension automatically, but renames the XPI file to the ID of the extension and copies that file to the extensions folder in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    If an extension needs to be unpacked then there should be an unpack directive (<nowiki><em:unpack>true</em:unpack></nowiki>) in the install.rdf file of that extension.
    * https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Updating_extensions_for_Firefox_4.0#XPI_unpacking
    You can try to set the extensions.alwaysUnpack pref to true on the about:config page.

  • Why after upgrading to the new os do some songs in the Ipod library have a dashed circle next to them.

    After upgrading to the new os some songs in my library will not sync to my Ipod. I can see them on my computer in the Ipod library with a dashed circle next to them.  How do I get them to play on my Ipod.  They are songs from store bought CD's in my Itunes library that will play on my computer in Itunes.  They do not appear on my Ipod.  I can see them when the Ipod is connected to the computer in the Ipod library.  I reset the Ipod by holding the home & power button, I went into general settings and reset the device.  I synced again but still no songs.

    I have the same problem even from iTunes bought music it appears with dashed grey circle beside the ones that I have recently added to my iPod by downloading them from the iPod itself. I honestly think it has to do with the 7.0.3 update that they have recently released. It may have solved other problems but it has created more problems along the way.
    Hopefully there will be a solution soon, if anyone has news or solutions please post thankyou
    At least now I know I'm not the only one with the same kinda problem

    Follow these instructions to uninstall MacKeeper. They have been tested with the most recent version of MacKeeper (v 2.8). Earlier versions than the one released in 2012 require more extensive work to uninstall all its components.
    The effects of having actually used MacKeeper to do anything are a completely different matter. The fastest way to take an exquisitely designed and painstakingly engineered Mac and make it run like a steaming pile of dung is to install and use such ill-conceived "cleaning" or "security" products. This is just one example of a broad category of time- and money-wasters capable of causing damage that can only be rectified by reinstalling OS X, restoring from a backup, or completely erasing your system and rebuilding it from the ground up. Never install such junk on a Mac.
    If you used MacKeeper to encrypt any files or folders, use MacKeeper to un-encrypt them first.
    Quit the MacKeeper app if it is running.
    Open your Applications folder: Using the Finder's Go menu, select Applications.
    Drag the MacKeeper icon from your Applications folder (not the Dock) to the Trash.
    You will be asked to authenticate (twice):
    You do not need to provide a reason for uninstalling it:
    Just click the Uninstall MacKeeper button. You will be asked to authenticate again.
    After it uninstalls you may empty the Trash and restart your Mac. All that will remain is an inert log file that does nothing but occupy space on your hard disk.

  • After upgrading to OS X loin 10.7.3, I can't open any word or excel documents

    could any one please tel if you had any isse with word or excel, after upgrading to OS X loin,
    I upgraded to OS X loin 10.7.3  today, now I cannot open any of my word documents or excel I get a massage " YOU CANT OPEN THE APPLICATION MICROSOFT WORD BECAUSE POWER PC  APPLICATION ARE NO LONGER SUPPORTED" is there any way I can down grad my mac back to the old versoin os x 10.6.8?
    many thanks
    george

    We can't lay all the blame (or much of it) at Apple's feet.  Over a year before they trotted out Lion they told all the developers and the rest of the Mac community that they would no longer drag Rosetta into the future.   Rosetta translated programs from the PowerPC to the Intel mode.  There are other programs, most notably Quicken 2007, that were affected also. 
    MS Office 2008 and 2011 were already out so I don' think Microsoft felt they had to fix something in 2004.  I think many people understood that MS Office 2004 would not work in Lion and there were tutorials out there about how to examine the applications you had to see if they would work with Lion.  There is even a web site dedicated to showing what applications had been tested to work with Lion.  
    However, there are always some who do not get the word (no pun intended) and they probably were not that into computers enough to be looking at this news all the time.  
    I am glad MS Office 2011 is working for you.

  • Firefox will not open on my computer, even after reinstall, with no error message or when I try to run "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -p. Help?

    I recently installed firefox so I could use an adblocker. It installed just fine, and it worked just fine for about three days. Then yesterday it stopped opening. I'm on a Toshiba running Windows 7. The icon highlights when I click on it, but then it stops and won't open the browser at all. When I try to run it with the manual command "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -p, I get the error message, "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\ refers to a location that is unavailable. It could be on a hard drive on this computer, or on a network. Check to make sure that the disk is properly inserted, or that you are connected to the Internet or your network, and then try again. If it still cannot be located, the information might have been moved to a different location." I installed it to that location, and I don't need a disk. I'm connected to the Internet just fine and my other browsers (Chrome and IE) work the same as always. But they're swamped with ads and I really was happy wih Firefox when it was opening...how can I fix this issue?

    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).

    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]].

    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.

  • Why after upgrading to iCloud does my CD drive selectively not read .pdf files but works otherwise?

    I recently upgraded to OS-X 10.7.4 and icloud and after doing this my CD drive on my macbook pro no longer sees some .pdf files on my computer. The disc in question works fine on my other computers so there is not an issue with the disc. I have upgraded adobe reader as well but this made no difference. Any solutions I could try please?

    Hi Mrlifemusic, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    What Brand/Model Optical did you install?
    What do you have set in System Preferences>CDs & DVDs to open it with?
    If you have Disk Utility open when you insert a CD, can it see it? Mount it? Do a Info on it?

  • Does anyone know why after upgrading to Mavericks, Safari will not display PDF files, is there a solution?

    I cannot get Safari to display PDF files, it shows a blank screen with the comment that Safri has blocked PDF, however when you unblock it still does not show the PDF, I have had to rely on Firefox for this, which I find not too good. Any help very much appreciated.

    Update to 10.9.1
