Why do I have to sign into my homepage every time I click the home tab??

every time I click on the HOME icon, I get my basic webpage that asks me to sign in. why is this happening?? the att.yahoo page gives the option of "keep me signed in for 2 weeks unless I sign out" & I have this box checked. I was using IE & Chrome until today & both of those ISP's kept me signed in. what's up with Mozilla??

  • Why do I have to sign in to CC EVERY TIME I want to use a program? It takes HOURS per week.

    I need a program to work instantly, every time. Instead, I have to sign on, give my password EVERY TIME, and it winds up taking HOURS out of my work week.
    Why is this and how can I make it stop?

    Your mail site usually will set a cookie. So in order for the site to recognize you after you exit and restart Firefox, these things have to be true:
    * You are not vising your mail site in a private window
    * You didn't change Firefox's default setting of accepting persistent cookies from all servers (first party and third party)
    * You do not have Firefox set to clear cookies at shutdown
    * You have not installed any add-ons that clear cookies
    * You do not have any external cleaning/security/privacy software that clears Firefox cookies
    If you're not sure about your cookie settings, check out the Privacy panel of the Options dialog:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Privacy
    If you have "Firefox will: remember history" then cookies are accepted and retained.
    If you have "Firefox will: use custom settings for history" you can check your cookie settings below that line.
    If you have "Firefox will: never remember history" then you are going to be using full time private browsing and cookies are discarded between sessions.
    If cookie settings are okay, and you would like advice on your extensions, it would be helpful if you could post a list of them. Open the Troubleshooting Information page using either:

  • Why do I have to sign in for mail every time I want to go to mail?

    When I open Firefox and click on mail, each time I have to sign in with my email address and password even though each time I check the "keep me signed in " box. Very frustrating!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Why do I have to sign in on Iprism every time I turn on Firefox

    I have to change my password each month. I change it on Firefox but the "remember pasword" window appears for only 1 second AFTER the Iprism Authenticate screen apears (which is every time I turn on Firefox).

    Did you check if there still is a key icon on the left hand side of the location bar to reopen the remember pop-up?
    If the pop-up doesn't stay open then try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

  • Why is a new tab opening every time I click the home button??? If it doesn't stop, I'm gone after meny years.

    no, you give ME details.

    Is there a new tab in addition to your home page, or does the current page stay the same and the home page opens in a new tab?
    If you haven't already, try resetting your home page. This articles describes the various methods: [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How%20to%20set%20the%20home%20page How to set the home page | How to | Firefox Help]

  • In OS X Mavericks using Safari, the search bar at the top that i had on the previous system disappears only reappearing in the full screen. Do i have to go into full screen every time? Bit of a pain but no doubt I'm doing something wrong!

    In OS X Mavericks using Safari, the search bar at the top that i had on the previous system version disappears only reappearing in the full screen. Do i have to go into full screen every time? Bit of a pain but no doubt I'm doing something wrong!

    Those are all fine
    Here is how to see RAM overloaded…
    Reboot to see the system in it's default state.
    Open TextEdit for the sake of it
    Open Activity Monitor & Terminal from /Applications/Utilities.
    Select the Memory tab
    In Terminal enter the following command
    memory_pressure -l critical
    # note that is a lowercase L
    RAM usage will climb, compression will begin the VM will become way more than the system has installed.
    Eventually the system will start swapping  (look for RED) - Watch the 'memory pressure' & 'Swap used' as this happens.
    Try switching to TextEdit - the system is still coping !
    Switch back to Terminal & hit ctrl+c to stop the process.
    Watch the VM & memory pressure return to normal levels.
    This OS kicks 4ss !
    Your problems may lie elsewhere

    You might give VueScan a try. It should work with your scanner. There's a demo version that you can use initially.

  • Why do three new tabs open every time I press the "home" icon?

    Three new tabs open every time I press the home icon. I and two others have looked through all my settings and have contacted Mozilla (no response) and can't figure out why this is happening? Anyone have a clue how to stop this incredibly annoying problem from continuing?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Upon install of Windows 7

    See [[How to set the home page]]: Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' symbols.
    See also http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved and [[Preferences are not saved]]
    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

    My Ipod is messed up. Every time i click the top button it just flashes the apple sign for like 5 seconds and then goes off and just continues to do that.Can someone please help?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    can't get words to open. I have no other applications open, but every time I tap the icon I gat an oops error message that a problem has occurred. ***

    First try killing Words. When on the home screen double press the HOME button, then swipe the screen image of Words up to close it.
    Next, reset your iPhone by holding HOME and SLEEP until an Apple logo appears. If the problem is not resolved delete the app from your phone, reset the phone again, then reinstall the app.

    You may have inadvertently installed adware. Eradicating it is simple and you don't have to download or install anything to fix it. For an explanation or how this may have occurred, how to avoid it in the future, and for one possible solution read How to install adware.
    Blocking popup windows in Safari and ad blocker extensions can be useful, but they are often ineffective defenses for this particular threat.
