Why dose mozilla open and then closes as soon as it opens. Then i can open it again with no problems

Mozilla will open then closes right away. Then I will open it again and it will stay open this time.

  • Why doesn't firefox close out when I'm done with it and close it; when next I try to open firefox again I get a dialog box telling me firefox is open and to close it or restart my computer? I'm tired of doing that one of more times a day.

    1. This happens at least once a day, and sometimes multiple times. Today it's happened twice, thus far. My home page is FoxNews.com and if I leave it up overnight or for longer periods during the day firefox doesn't allow the refresh of the home page it just goes to yahoo 404--error can't find the webpage. Then when I enter FoxNews.com it adds a /error to the url and doesn't allow me to go to MY homepage. So I close firefox and then if I try to reopen it and then I get the dialog box saying firefox is open and to close it or restart my computer. Very aggravating. 2. Also the Adobe flash drive update always fails. 3. Webpages get in loops and fail to load to the point I have to stop and refresh or close out and reopen.

    One situation in which Command+w or Ctrl+w might not work is if the "focus" is in a plugin such as the Flash player used on Youtube after you interact with the player controls. Firefox will continue to send the keyboard input to the plugin until you move the focus back to the page. Does that account for any of the problem?

  • When i have 2 firefox widows open and i close one of them the other window asks if i am sure abt closing it too

    I upgraded to firefox 4 and that started since then
    when i happen to have 2 window open and i close 1 the other main one i have open with tabs ask me if i was sure i want to quit it too
    and it asks 2 times

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Adding javascript to page open and page close in acrobat 8.1.2

    Reading the Acrobat Javascript Object Specification on page 22 it says that you can add javascript to the "page open" and "page close" events of a document.
    It then says that under the menu "Document -> Set page action" you can add scripts for those events
    I am using Acrobat 8.1.2 and under the document menu there is no "Set page action". And there is nowhere where I can find any "set page action" menu...
    whats the deal?
    How can i set the page open and page close events in acrobat professional 8.1.2?????????????
    Marc

    - open the Navigation Panel 'Pages'
    - select the page and open the page properties
    - in the actions tab you can set the page actions

  • When I have the downloads window open and I close the browser window, how can I get the browser to open the homepage the next time I start it while the download window is still open?

    When I have the downloads window open and I close the browser window, the next time I reopen the browser while the downloads are still going, it returns me to the last page I was on. All previous versions of Firefox would return me to my homepage which I would prefer. Please let me know if this is possible.

    When you re-open Firefox and choose Restore Session, by default it picks up your most-recently-open window, and the other windows should then show up in Recently Closed Windows.
    The Firefox add-on Session Manager lets you manage how many closed windows and closed tabs are saved, in case it's not enough.

  • Why dose my activity monitor say I'm using more in tasks then in total?

    Why dose my activity monitor say I'm using more in tasks then in total?
    see how Guild Wars 2 uses 92.8% yet the total use is 12.03%, 86.54% is idle and the system is using 1.4% why is this?

    Cortess,
    they’re two orthogonal percentage measurements. For the “% CPU” column in Activity Monitor, the total percent available depends upon your hardware: a single-core CPU has 100% available, a dual-core CPU has 200% available, and a quad-core CPU has 400% available. (The column might have been better labeled “% Cores”.) For the System/User/Idle at the bottom of the window, those represent a total of 100% of whatever your hardware comprises. For example, if you have a quad-core CPU, then your total System usage would be 400% of 1.43%, or a total of 5.72% in the “% CPU” column. Similarly, your total User usage would be 400% of 12.03%, or a total of 48.12% in the “% CPU” column. The percentage value for Guild Wars 2  might have been magnified because of its dependence upon your MacBook Pro’s discrete GPU.

    Not all the apps are open. When you double tap the home button that just shows you apps that you have recently used. They are not all open and running.

    Hi Timothy,
    The account cannot be validated error was due to a glitch on our activation server that has been fixed now.

  • I close the textedit programme , open Pages, click on the 09 pages file to be opened and the message "The document "7-09 receipts" could not be opened. TextEdit cannot open files in the "Pages document"

    I close the textedit programme , open Pages, click on the 09 pages file to be opened and the message "The document “7-09 receipts” could not be opened. TextEdit cannot open files in the “Pages document”
    What's this??? How do I open the pages doc???   Kalavati

    You have obviously not done what you think you have done.
    You have tried to open a .pages document in TextEdit which can't read them.
    If you are confused which program you are in look to the top left of the menu.
    You can either drag the .pages file onto the Pages icon on the Dock, open it from within Pages' Open dialog, double click on it or right mouse click > open with.

  • How can I import a movie into iMovie 09 from a hard drive?  The movie will open and play in idvd but breaks into separate files that can't be downloaded when I try to import.  Can it be done?

    How can I import a movie into iMovie 09 from a hard drive?  The movie will open and play in idvd but breaks into separate files that can't be downloaded when I try to import.  Can it be done? I am trying to create a disc of player highlights for a collegiate coach, and I am using movie files downloaded to my hard drive from a DVD created on a PC. 

    No unfortunately it won't open in quicktime either.  It does the same thing that Imovie does, separates it into two file folders audio and video, and if i select video it opens to reveal 8 files that cannot be selected.  VIDEO_TS.BUP, VIDEO_TS.IFO, VIDEO_TS.VOB,VTS_01_0.BUP, VTS_01_0.IFO, VTS_01_1.VOB, VTS_01_2.VB, VTS_01_3.VOB.  All of which cannot be opened or selected.
    Opening it in Idvd and folllowing your suggestion works and I get a format code of NTSC.  Is that the same?  Thank you for your time and response.
