Why does FireFox look for "Chrom..........." when I close the left (last) tag and report "can't open ....? Have i missed an option that wold send it to my hom

If I close the last (left) tab to return to my desktop, firefox tries to load google Chrome and reports to me that it can't find the server.
Apparently, I have missed an option in the help area that prevents this. Any ideas?

  • Why does Firefox Look Like Chrome??

    ''locking this thread as duplicate, please continue at [https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1013999 /questions/1013999]''
    Because Firefox looks like Chrome Im Sad to say after 7 years im dropping ChromeFox (a fitting name for what ff has become) i will no longer using FF or Suggesting to people i meet to Use FF.
    I Will Be Using Comodo Icedragon ( http://www.comodo.com/home/browsers-toolbars/icedragon-browser.php) until i Find a Better Browser. i know i will get a reply saying its not backed by mozilla therefore its not secure. that can be remedied by a good antivirus and Firewall such as AVG whatever you prefer. until i find another Browser does anyone have any good suggestions to try out?
    i absolutely refuse to use a bunch of stupid add-ons to remedy the situation (since mozilla adopts apples "theres an app for that" Motto i know its going to most likely be suggested)

  • Why does my iTunes stop playing when I close the lid on my laptop?

    I am playing iTunes on my Vista laptop and my setting are 'do nothing' for both powered and battery use, but when I close the lid iTunes stops playing music. Does anyone know why and how I stop it? Please don't say "don't close the lid..." Thanks.

    You have your answer... there is no way to stop iTunes from stopping playing music when the lid is closed.
    You can try adjusting the power settings, but if that's not working...there is no way for iTunes to override it.

  • Why does firefox stop loading then when i close it and try to open it up again I keep getting this message:Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system

    Firefox will just stop loading/ connecting to the internet. The gray circle will just continually move but it never turns green to load the pages. I know it's not my internet because my internet explorer works just fine while this is happening to firefox. So I close firefox and then try to re open it but I get the message: Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system. So I wait a little bit then try and re open it and still get the same message. I then go into my windows task manager and try and end the firefox proccess but it won't end. So I restart my computer and firefox eventually starts acting up again.

    For possible causes of this error, and how to troubleshoot it see [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]].

  • WHY does Muse upload every page when I only change one thing. And how can I make Muse faster.

    I have a bunch of sites I do for people that are similar. Here's one: www.mattfelis.com.
    When I make a single change on one page, just a text change (the last time I deleted a freakin' period) and tell Muse to Upload it to FTP host, it uploads every single page in the site. Every one. And since there are 55 pages, that means it takes about 20 minutes with a darned fast upload speed (20MBPS upload). It isn't the uploading that kills me, it's the Exporting of pages. All of them. All 55. Why is it doing this?
    And while we are talking about speed, most of the time in working with these files I see what I call the beach ball of death on a constant basis. Just opening a page from Plan Mode or going back to Plan Mode from a page can take 20 seconds. I know, I've counted. Copy and paste between pages can take longer. I am running a 3 year old Mac Pro with 12 gigs of RAM and tons of disk space. How can I make Muse work better. More RAM? To speed it up I find that I have to quit about every 30 minutes and restart Muse to get it back to any semblance of speed. Smaller sites obviously don't do this but big ones (I have a lot of those) do.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    There's a bug we've become aware of and fixed for the next major release where use of one or more objects on a master page that have different states that require output as separate background images can result in that master page and all pages where that master page is used always being considered out-of-date and in need of re-export and upload.
    Unfortunately, there's no workaround short of removing such items from your master page(s).
    If you're not already part of the Private Beta Program and are interested in working with the next version of Muse prior to its official release, the Private Beta Program is open to all subscribers who can accept the terms of the Non-disclosure Agreement. You can join via the Help menu within Muse. The Beta Program for the next major release will be started soon.

  • When Password Protected - The File Becomes Corrupted and I Can Not Open It

    I have password protected two files now in Excel 2007.  After opening and then saving a few times, the file becomes corrupted and I cannot open.  The following error message appears  "Excel cannot open the file"XXXX.xlsx" because
    the file format or file extenson is not valid.  Verify that the file has not been corrupted and that the file extension matches the format of the file.
    The files that I created contains sensitive information and I really need to get to them.l

    You can try to open these files with 'Open and Repair' .
    1.Start Excel.
    2.click the Microsoft Office Button, and then click Open.
    3.In the Open dialog box, click to select the file that you want to open.
    4.Click the down arrow on the Open button, and then click Open and Repair.
    Also this issue could be  caused by malware on the affected machine
    Please see:http://blogs.technet.com/b/the_microsoft_excel_support_team_blog/archive/2013/09/07/quot-cannot-open-the-file-because-the-file-format-or-extension-is-invalid-quot-opening-office-files.aspx
    Some one works out this issue with remove the xlsx entention,give it a try.
    1. rename the file and remove the .xlsx or .xls extention etc e.g. if my file is called test.xlsx I remove the '.xlsx' - you will get a warning message saying this could make the document unstable - accept it
    2. the document icon should now have turned white (the document won't look like an excel document anymore)
    3. open a blank excel document by hitting start -> all programs -> Microsoft office -> excel (this may be different if your not on windows 7)
    4. in your blank excel document hit file -> open
    5. navigate to the document you renamed above and select it, now click open

  • Looking for new laptop what are the differences between pro and air? Besides size. Does the air preform like the pro?

    Looking for new laptop what are the differences between pro and air? Besides size. Does the air preform like the pro?

    The NEW macbook Pro and Air are EXTREMELY close in form factor
    The newest macbook Pro is essentially a larger macbook Air with Retina display and options for speed in increasing prices up to an independent graphics and quad core processor.
    both Air and new Pro now have PCIe SSD and permanent RAM.
    The Air is the lightweight portable form factor, fast to boot and shut down, but with longer battery life than any of the macbook pro in 13"
    Now the new macbook Pro and macbook Air are extremely close in form factor and nature.
    both have 802ac wifi
    both have permanent RAM, no superdrive
    both are slim profiles and SSD
    The only real differences now are (in the most expensive Pros) faster processors and quadcore processors and top end model autonomous graphics.
    ....and of course the retina display
    both are now "very good for travel"
    Other than features the form factor of the Air and Pro are VERY close now,....so now its merely a matter of features and price more than anything.
    You need an external HD regardless of what you get for backups etc.   Drop into an Apple store and handle both and make your choice based on features, such as Retina or non-retina, .... both at a distance now look like the same computer.
    The Pro weighs more, ....but nowhere near what it used to just a month ago on the older macbook Pros
    The NEW macbook Pro is a different creature entirely than the older macbook Pro, .....the new Pro is thicker than the Air, but id frankly call the NEWEST Pro a "macbook Air with Retina display" , or
    Maybe a “macbook Air PRO with Retina display” 
    Instead of Air VS Pro now,.....its really a smooth transition from Air to pro without comparing say, 2 different creatures, now its like contrasting a horse from a race horse.
    Either one in 8gig of RAM (preferably)... the 4gig upgrade costs very little,  the I7 you will notice only 15% faster on heavy applications over the I5, and NOTHING on most APPS.....I5 has longer battery life.
    As you see below, the non-Retina 13" AIR is 82% of the Macbook with Retina display in resolution
    there is no magical number of pixels per inch that automatically equates to Retina quality.
    http://www.cultofmac.com/168509/why-you-might-be-disappointed-by-the-resolution- of-those-new-retina-display-macs-feature/
    A huge internal SSD isnt a game changer for anything, you need an external HD anyway
    what you WONT READ on Apple.com etc. is that the larger SSD  are MUCH FASTER due to SSD density
    "The 512GB Samsung SSD found in our 13-inch model offers roughly a 400MB/s increase in write speeds over the 128GB SanDisk/Marvell SSD"

    Why does my mini ipad reset when I click the camera icon?

    Try doing a manual reset:
    Hold both the home and power buttons at the same time until the Apple boot logo appears. No data will be lost.
    If that does not work, restore your iPad: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414.

    This is usually a sign that your headphones are not plugged all the way in.  Make sure the white part of the headset is flush with the body of the Nano and no silver from the plug can still be seen.
    If you are 100% positive that the earbuds are all the way in, double check to make sure the headphone jack is clean and clear of debris and/or damage.

  • My iphone 4 does not ring for messages when i use the handsfree..

    my iphone 4 does not ring for messages when i use the handsfree..

    iPhone supports A2DP audio streaming. If you have it paired to a handsfree kit that supports this, for example, an in car audio system, and are currently tuned to a source other than the phone, the phone will send the audio for things like text message alerts to the handsfree system, but you will not hear them. This is just the nature of the beast. If you do not intend to use audio streaming from the phone, you may be able to disable this in the in car system. This should not affect Bluetooth calling. There is no option to disable this on the phone itself.
