Why does the "Home" button open another set of tabs ontop of my existing?

when I use an existing tab to go to another web site and then want to return to my original tabs I hit the home button and instead of reloading all my home screen tabs it opens another set of tabs along with the ones that are currently up. IE ,I have -5- tabs that open on start up. If I hit the home key I will then have -10- whci are duplicates of the one that are up. In IE the home key just takes me back to the tabs that open on start up. Do I have something set wrong?? I am a new user of Firefox. Thanks!!

When you hit the Home button the active tab is reloaded with the first of your homepages and the other 4 homepages will open in new tabs; IE does that differently. Sorry, there is no setting in Firefox to change that action. There might be an add-on available to change that action, but I can't point you to it as I am comfortable with the current way Firefox does that (but then again I only have 2 homepages).

[Solved] Why is the home button opening tabs?

I have disabled all add-ons and extensions in an attempt to fix this issue. Every time I click the home button a tab is opened, whether I am on a different page or not. Please inform me of a way to fix this issue.

checked the home page option. there was a "|" next to my home page link with a "blank page" inserted after. Tab issue seems to be solved.

Why does the HOME button Not act on clicking?

You have to press harder to get action, so why have a misleading Click ?

Usually in this type of switch, the click occurs FROM the contact itself...
In this case, no. Trying to click softly results in about one in five clicks causing an action. In normal use (like my Mac mouse or other buttons in pressure) results in about half of audible clicks
resulting in actions.
It's a minor annoyance, but still annoying to hear-feel the click yet still have to do it again

Why does my "home" button on my ipad no longer work?

Why does my home button on my ipad all of the sudden not work at all?

It happens the same to me, sometimes I push the button and I start to push it in all the ways, without releasing it, and it starts to work for a time. There's another thread with home button issues on IOS 6. Regars.

Restore the phone and set it up as a new phone to isolate a software issue.

Why does the top button always brake why as my screen decided to pop off why is the back of my case bending when I have never dropped it why dose this shity phone keep sending text messages as picture messages this is the worst phone av ever had!!

I know a lot of people with iphone 5 and have never heard them complain about top button always brake and screen that decides to pop off or the back of their case is bending.
That sounds like a phone that has been dropped a numerous times.

Why does the power button intermittently fault -- Not work to wake up the phone?

Iphone 4 occassionally won't respond to the power/sleep button. Isn't stuck -- works normally much of the time, but occassionally acts as though the battery is dead. Have to plug into a power source to activate phone. Battery will show same charge it had before it went into sleep mode. Can be near fully charged and proceed working for the rest of the day just fine.
Button does not stick or seem faulty in any way. But, when you least need it to not work - such as in travel - or for emergences and have not power source to get to -- is bad. An unreliable phone for a doctor is not good. I have presented the problem to a few repair shops who are either not familiar with this behavior or suggest that is may be software rather than hardware. Something miss reading the battery to the phone indicating that the battery is dead when in fact it is not. Had the phone restored at the Apple store and this did not solve the problem.
It seems I did run across a blog that this occurred with some IOS update?
Would be grateful for advice.
Thanks

There are a simular trick to get the home button to work, here it is.
Open a default iOS application, such as Stocks, Calculator, or Weather
Press and hold down the Power button until the “Slide to Power Off” dialog appears, then release
Now press and hold the Home button until the “Slide to Power Off” screen disappears, quitting the application.

Why is the home button not working correctly?

I have reset the button by holding sleep key & home button down, i have also tried to reset the home button by holding this down itself, it is still none responsive most if the time. I have done this many times.
It is also very difficult to get it to open the 'open apps bar', so i can close these down!!
My ipad is only 4 days old and i feel frustrated to be having problems so soon!!!

Calibrate Home Button
1. Open a stock application like Calendar, Weather or Youtube
2. Hold down the power button until the "slide to power off" control appears
3. As soon as you see it, press the Home button and keep it pressed until the red slider disappears and the app is forced quit to the Home menu

Does the home button of iPhone 5 stop working over a period of time?

I'd purchased an iPhone 4 when it was released. After using it for 8 months the home button had stopped working. Then i found out that its a common problem in the iPhone 4. Is it the same with Iphone 5?

I've never had a problem with any iPhone I've had, nor has anyone I know. But being a mechanical device, parts are going to break. That's why there's a warranty.

Why does my home button only work sporadically on my iphone?

Most of the time my iPhone is fine, but then 2 or 3 times a day the home button stops working and I need to power the phone off and back on again to get it working properly. Am I alone in having this problem?

Possibly the flex connector of the charging dock, flex ribbon (#4) is not perfectly seated down to the logic board.

Why does my home button act without clicking?

My home button seems to have a mind of its own. My apps shut down, voice control popps up..etc all without touching the home button.
It will even happen when the phone is on my desk.

Try resetting it: hold on/off and home buttons 10-20 seconds until you see the Apple logo (ignoring the off slider that appears first), release and wait for it to restart.

Why does the onscreen keyboard open when any icon is touched?

Every time I touch an icon or symbol the keyboard pops up as if I have selected a text box. This is getting to be annoying. Any way to have it revert back to when it only did it when I tried to write in a text box?

Try resetting your iPad. To reset press the Home button and the ON/Off button at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (abbot 10 second).

Why does my home button keep sticking. I have to press it 4 or 5 times for it to take me from an app back to the home page

My home button keeps sticking. I have to press it about 4 or 5 times to move from an app back to home page. Very frustrating when I want to change apps in a hurry. I have had the phone for just over a year without any problems. This started about three weeks ago. is there anything i can do or must I take the phone back to the supplier?

This is usually caused by gunk building up in and around the button.
