Why aren't my app tabs permanent?

I have created multiple app tabs, but every time I exit Firefox, the next time I open FF, all the app tabs are gone and I have to recreate them all from scratch. The intro video shows that the app tabs should be permanent and show up every time I start FF, but that's not the case for me.

So, the problem seems to be that I had my settings to clear browser history when closing FF. I went into Options>Privacy and then I unchecked the box which says "Clear History When Firefox Closes". This has fixed the issue for me, however, it seems strange that I'm unable to use app tabs without being able to clear my cache, browser history, etc.
I may have it fixed, but I'm not sure I'll use it. Chrome has a similar feature (don't remember it's name) but it is not dependent on my not clearing the history. Maybe I'm missing something though.

  • Why has "Pin as App Tab" command disappeared when I right click on a web site?

    Very much like FF4 and especially App Tabs. Today when I relaunched FF (1) App Tabs have disappeared (I have been reading how to keep them when I reopen FF) and (2) I no longer have a "Pin as App Tab" command when I right click on a web site I want to pin. Anyone got any clues? I am wondering if there is a conflict with Cooliris?

    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 > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    See:
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    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")

  • Cannot download PS CC. Why does Creative Cloud apps tab show as blank when trying to download PS?

    I have a brand new Mac OS X Version 10.9.2
    I am trying to download a trial of Photoshop but the download never starts. The Cloud app pops up on the top right of my screen but the apps tab just shows a rotating circle. I was able to download Lightroom with no problem but Photoshop won't download. Any idea what I can do?

    Hi Ashtinafayelou,
    Please follow the below steps
    Close the Creative Cloud application if it's running.
        Navigate to the below location
        /User/<username>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE folder
        Rename the opm.db file to opm_old.db
        Launch Creative Cloud and check if the issue persists.
    Thank you for posting on Adobe Forums.

  • Why aren't my apps showing up in CC desktop?

    Every since I download the Cloud months ago this has been a problem with my home computer which is running on Windows 8. I can still get my files, fonts, etc. but no apps and every time I call customer service after 20 minutes of going back and forth they try and connect me with technical person I get disconnected. I have unitstalled CC desktop and reinstalled but still get same issue. I do not have this problem at work which runs on  Windows 7. I have a team membership and my IT department says they have no reason why this should happen but since it's my home computer they can't do anything about it. I tried to update CC desktop to fix the update for Windows 8.1 but can't download or update it. My other programs in the Cloud work fine although I have tried download Adobe Acrobat from the website and it doesn't download.

  • TS1702 After syncing my iPad why aren't my apps opening?

    I synced my iPad and now none of the 3rd party apps are opening. I have lots of apps so the idea of deleting and downloading all of the again is daunting!

  • Why aren't my apps updating on my iPad 2?

    When I update apps on my iPad 2 the log in pops up but then I get this message saying that whatever number of apps I'm trying to update can't be purchased at this time try again. Then the log in box pops up again. I log in and maybe 1 or 2 apps update but not the all.

    Here are a number of things that you can try.
    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. 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.
    Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
    You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.

  • Why the app tab does desappear from my Ipod touch 4?

    Can someone tell me why is desappear the app tab from my Ipod touch 4?  How can I do to see it again?  I need it to download app on my Ipod. Thanks

    You cannot delete the apps store icon.
    It is either on another page, in a folder or you have restrictions set.  Have a look.
    If none of these is the case then reset your home screen layout.
    All of this is covered in the manual:

    Is Firefox creating a file sessionstore.js in the Firefox Profile Folder?
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js
    It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    Delete the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    * Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js
    If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.<br />
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and all open tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

  • My App Tabs aren't saving when I close Firefox, they're gone when I re-open. Anyone know why this might be happening?

    Just downloaded Firefox 5 and love the App Tabs concept. I right click, Pin as App Tab, then close Firefox. When I re-open it, there aren't any pinned App Tabs.

    App (pinned) tabs and Tab Groups (Panorama) are stored as part of the session data in the file sessionstore.js in the Firefox profile folder.

    Make sure that you do not use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the "Browsing History" when Firefox is closed because that prevails and prevents Firefox from opening tabs from the previous session.

  • Why aren't apple doing something to sort out the facetime app for mac

    Why aren't apple doing something to sort this out, there is obviously something wrong as so many people seem to be having the same or very similar problems, I was about to buy the facetime app for my mac but not sure I should now
    Come on apple, no use sticking your head in the sand, get it sorted.
    After all, you are quite happy to take peoples money for your app, the least you can do is to ensure it works.

    Backing up and restoring is not the same as downgrading.
    Apple have stopped signing 5.1.1 which is why you can't downgrade.

  • Why aren't apps like weather, stocks, etc. on my new iPad? Also, It's curious that Siri wasn't included with ios5... Shouldn't an iPad 2 with the A5 be able to handle it?

    Next time an app update gets stuck try a reset. Press and hold both the home and power buttons for10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Then release both buttons. Wait till your iPad starts on it's own. Try now. Also YouTube is still available. If you can't find it the the app store go to the bottom of the app store page and tap purchased. All your deleted apps will be listed and you can reinstall YouTube from there.

  • I accidently closed my window with all my app tabs, now the only window that opens was a 2nd one I had open. How do I get back all my app tabs from the previous window, and why didn't it give me the usual warning you are closing more than one tab?

    I accidently closed the window with all my frequently used app tabs, now the only window that opens was an extra one I had opened. How do I get back all my app tabs from the previous window, and why didn't it give me the usual warning you are closing more than one tab? edit

    Then the (App) tabs from that window are lost unless you can restore an older copy of the sessionstore.js file (Time Machine?) that has that lost window.

    Hi,
    ( I search for iChat questions when I have finished in the iChat Forum)
    So the menu bar reads iChat, File,  Edit,  View, Buddies, Video, Window and Help
    There is no Buddy List open.
    There is no other window for iChat open.
    In the iChat Menu you only have access to Status.
    Is an item ticked in the list ?
    Is this a green (Available item) or  Red ( an Away one) ?
    Can you access the Accounts option ?  (Sitll in the iChat Menu)
    Is anything in here ticked ?
    In the Window menu any Logged in account should appear in the list  (Between the Next Chat and File Transfer items)
    It would be useful to know which version of iChat this is.
    If no account is ticked (iChat Menu > Accounts) or not showing in the Window Menu, plus you cannot determine the Status and you cannot access the Preferences then you need to access your Home Folder/Library/Preferences
    As the Library in the Home Holder is Invisible in Lion you will need the Finder's Go Menu > Go to Folder option  (you can use it in earlier OS versions if you want)
    Type in:-
    ~/Library/Preferences
    Find the file called com.apple.ichat.plist
    Drag it to the Trash and Restart iChat.
    This will lose all the settings in iChat that you have changed from Defaults but there is no way around this.
