Why does customize tab open on startup

customize tab opens on start up -- it is set as my home page not my home page

Do you mean the about:customizing page?
You can check the home page setting:
*Tools > Options > General > Startup: Home page
Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' (pipe) symbols.

  • Why does another tab open each time I click on 'Home'?

    Eacg time I click on the 'HOME' icon a new (empty) tab opens. This will continue to happen no ,matter how many tabs are already opened the same way.

    Hi,
    Please check if this happens in [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe%20Mode Safe Mode].

    Safe mode disables the installed '''Extensions''', and themes ('''Appearance''') in '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Add-ons'''. Hardware acceleration is also temporarily disabled - the manual setting is '''Tools''' > '''Options''' > '''Advanced''' > '''General''' > '''Use hardware acceleration when available'''. [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Options%20window%20-%20Advanced%20panel?as=u Options > Advanced]. All these settings/add-ons can also be individually or collectively disabled/enabled/changed in Firefox normal mode to check if an extension, theme or hardware acceleration is causing issues.

    If the problem persists, you can also try to '''Reset all user preferences to Firefox defaults:''' and '''Make Changes and Restart''' in the Safe Mode start screen. Please note that this would also reset all the Firefox options to the installation defaults.

  • Why does the tab button in Safari close safari and not open a new tab?

    Why does the tab button in Safari close Safari and not open a new tab?

    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

  • Why does the tab bar on my iPad 2 disappear when I swipe down? How can I lock it in place?

    Why does the tab bar on my iPad 2 using IO8 disappear when I swip down? Its annoying. I have to tap the top of the screen to view my open tabs.
    why did Apple switch the position of the bookmarks icon and the favorites icon. Now I tap the wrong one.

    There isn't a setting to stop the tab bar automatically hiding (or I haven't found one), and as to why the icons were moved I don't think that Apple have said. If you want to leave feedback for Apple then you can do so here : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

  • Why does closing all open windows (15) and leaving only one drop ram usage from 1.5 to 1.4Gb and not more.

    Why does closing all open windows (15) and leaving only one drop ram usage by only 100mb from 1.5 to 1.4Gb.
    What is in this 1.4 gb ?
    I don't care much about ram, It's just that cpu usage spike like crazy by the end.

    Hi musicfan,<br />Sorry you are having problems with Firefox. Maybe you should have asked earlier and we could have fixed it.
    Reading your comments I do not see that rolling back to an insecure Firefox 22 will actually help you much. You are probably best using IE, unless you have also damaged that.
    *[[Export bookmarks to Internet Explorer]]
    You should not use old versions they are insecure. Security fixes are publicised and exploitable.
    * [[Install an older version of Firefox]]
    * https://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/firefox.html
    Most others will not be having such problems. We are now able to say that with confidence because after developers missed a regression in Firefox 4 telemetry was introduced so that data was obtained. It may be an idea to turn on your telemetry, if you have not already done so, and decide to stick with Firefox.
    *[[Send performance data to Mozilla to help improve Firefox]]
    Trying safe mode takes seconds. Unfortunatly if you are not willing to do even rudimentary troubleshooting there is not anything we can do to help you.

  • Why does illustartor CC open then crashes and i get a message saying windows don't know the prob?

    why does illustartor CC open then crashes and i get a message saying windows does not know what the problem is. everytime i open it, Now i know it works on my computer becuase i've used illustartor plenty of times on my current desktop but ever since today its been acting wierd and work so i've unistalling and reinstalling but still nothing works then i tried installing on another hardrive still did not work and i cleaned out my registryies, optimized my disk, and cleaned temp files tooo so i just do not know what went wrong and i really need help i have class assignments that i have to get done in illustartor so if anyone can help me and let me know what the problem is and what i have to do i would really apreciate it.

    Hi J,
    - Do you see an AICC splash screen? If yes then could you please let us know where exactly it crashes i.e. while loading which plugin or font?
    - Do you have any 3rd party plugins installed? Can you please remove those (do take a backup of them) and see if AI launches fine? This way you would be able to find the plugin creating the problem.
    - Did you install any OS or Ai update after which it started showing the problem?
    - Please check if you have all the Verdana family fonts installed.
    Let me know if any of these work.
    Thanks,
    Dhirendra

  • Why does iPhoto always open/appear at launch?

    Why does iPhoto always open/appear at launch? Someone used my computer under another account, and now my preferences seem to be changed. How do I fix it so iPhoto must me opened manually?

    Some possibilities: 
    Right click on the iPhoto icon in the Dock. Is Open at Log In Selected?
    Check your System Preferences -> Accounts -> Log In Items
    Is there a camera or anything that your Mac might think is a camera (flash drive, USB Hard Disk formatted to a FAT format, phone) attached to your Mac. If so, disconnect it. If you don't want to disconnect it, set iPhoto to "Do Nothing" when a camera is attached. You do this in the iPhoto Preferences.
