Why do I get the "What's new, your FF is up to date" page everytime I start FF 10.0?

This is an addition tab with my normal start up tabs.

I don't know if bit replied to you,
checked the links you provided and my prefs.js file is not read-only and it appears to be saving my settings, based on file date. I did notice the user.js file may have issues. Each line appears to be duplicated. Here is a partial copy nof that file:
user_pref("app.update.auto", false); user_pref("app.update.auto", false); user_pref("app.update.lastUpdateTime.addon-background-update-timer", 1326852493); user_pref("app.update.lastUpdateTime.addon-background-update-timer", 1327038601); user_pref("app.update.lastUpdateTime.background-update-timer", 1326852733); user_pref("app.update.lastUpdateTime.background-update-timer", 1327038841); user_pref("app.update.lastUpdateTime.blocklist-background-update-timer", 1326852613); user_pref("app.update.lastUpdateTime.blocklist-background-update-timer", 1327038721); user_pref("app.update.lastUpdateTime.search-engine-update-timer", 1326858453); user_pref("app.update.lastUpdateTime.search-engine-update-timer", 1327038481); user_pref("browser.anchor_color", "#0000FF"); user_pref("browser.anchor_color", "#0000FF"); user_pref("browser.cache.disk.capacity", 1048576); user_pref("browser.cache.disk.capacity", 1048576); user_pref("browser.cache.disk.smart_size.enabled", false); user_pref("browser.cache.disk.smart_size.enabled", false); user_pref("browser.cache.disk.smart_size.first_run", false); user_pref("browser.cache.disk.smart_size.first_run", false); user_pref("browser.cache.disk.smart_size_cached_value", 1048576); user_pref("browser.cache.disk.smart_size_cached_value", 1048576);
What do you think?
Or could I edit prefs.js with about:config?

  • Why Firefox 5 opening the "What's new" page every time I start the browser?

    I have Firefox betas since version firefox 4 beta 1, so when it's updated to version 5, I uninstalled firefox, and install the clean version 5 with my saved settings.
    Everything went okay, started the browser and it searched for addon compatibility, opened up the What's new page. But now it is for every start, so it's very annoying.
    I tried clean the mess but nothing changed.
    How can i solve this? thanks, and sorry for my english

  • Firefox loads the "welcome to firefox" along with my homepage (firefox startup page) everytime I start firefox up. It also checks for add-on compatibility at the same time.

    My firefox program is regularly updated (automatic update). Normally, after an update, when I start up firefox the "welcome to firefox" (http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/6.0.2/whatsnew/) with all the new features and stuff display pops up, but only for the first time, together with the add-on compatibility check
    This time, however, it just keeps loading everytime I start up firefox. It seems to think that I've just updated all the time. It's not a problem (nothing else is affected), I'm just wondering why this is happening. Suggestions?
    I'm running firefox 6.0.2 on a windows 7 platform. No patches or funny stuff added to firefox. Standard players and video/audio encoders.

  • I updated Pages, and I can't get the "What's New in Pages" splash screen to go away.

    The "Continue" at the bottom is useless. *** Apple?

    Just close the app and relaunch it or close the app and reboot if closing alone doesn't work,
    Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the Pages app and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Reboot 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Why do I get the error message: "The file "iTunes Library" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTune." I am using iTunes9.1.1 which, I believe, is the highest for OS 10.4.11 ?

    Hello,
    Did you reinstall lately?
    My 10.4.11 Drive seemes to have iTunes 7.6.2 on it, have you tried Software update to see if iTunes is listed?
    Another 10.4.11 drive has iTunes 6.05 on it... I hate upgrading iTunes, seems worse at every upgrade.
    The 10.5.8 drive I'm booted from now has iTunes 8.02 on it.

  • Why don't we show up in the "what's new" section of the iBook store?

    We published our first book but it doesn't show up under the "what's new" section of our category. Any ideas why not? The books that are showing up were added ages ago. :(

    Yes, I'm wondering that too. I finally got my book up and running. It's called, "Japanese Foundation Level 1". Its in the textbooks section. It would be great if I can find it in the "What's New" section. That would make my day. :-)
    For those interested, here is the link:

  • How do I get past the "What's New in iTunes 10.3" welcome window in the iTunes Store? (OS 10.4.11, iTunes 8)

    Hello. I have iTunes 8 on a MacBook with OS 10.4.11. Everytime I try to access the iTunes Store, I get a "What's New in iTunes 10.3" window that I can't seem to bypass. Any suggestions?

    The update to iTunes 9.2.1 can be found here... I'm assuming you've already done this as this posting is well over a year old. so it's just for informational purposes.

  • HT201328 why do I get the message to enter passcode? what is this?

    Why am I getting the message to enter passcode when I first turn on my phone? What is a passcode? Never had to do this before.

    If you created a passcode during the setup after updating to iOS 7, that could be why you are seeing the passcode request. Do you recall creating a passcode after updating to iOS 7?

  • Why am i getting the message cannot get mail or that i am not connected to the internet what settings do i need to be on

    why am i getting the message cannot get mail or that i am not connected to the internet what settings do i need to be on

    WIFi needs to enabled and you need to be connected to a network. Alternatively, you need Cellular Data to be "on". (Settings>General>Network). But it propably is a problem with your router (at least, it often is with me), provided you are using your private router. Try schutting it off and turning it on again. This usually sorts problems like this out.

  • HT1222 Why dont i get the new update? Everybody did

    Why dint i get the update for the new iso 7??

    Either your device's an iPhone 3GS or earlier, which isn't compatible with it, or Apple's servers were too busy at the time you checked for it.

    Why am I getting the following error message? "You can’t open the application “Microsoft Word” because PowerPC applications are no longer supported."  I never used to have a proble!

    Only Office for Mac 2008 and 2011 will run on Mavericks. Microsoft support for the former package ended in April 2013. If you do not want to spend the money, you might download and try the donation-ware (free) LibreOffice Suite. No ribbon bar crap. Supports about any document created on Windows.

  • Why do I get the movies only in english?

    As a new Apple TV user this might be a stupid question for pros on Apple TV. Nevertheless, why do I get the movies which I wanted to receive in the German version only in the English version. I make my choice in the German iTunes-Store, I watch the trailers in German, but when I order the movie, I get it only in English. Am I stupid or what?
    Thanks for your help.
    Hartwin

    Hartwin, that's odd. Does this happen with every movie you've rented?
    And do you perhaps have a US iTunes account that you're using to order from?
    Other than that, I really can't think of an answer.

  • Why do I get the spinning beach ball when I try to change from Events to Photos.  How do I fix it?

    Why do I get the spinning beach ball when I try to change from Events to Photos.  How do I fix it?

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
