Why won't my tabs & windows reopen as they should, even tho I have it set for them to do so?

Why won't my tabs & windows reopen as they should, even tho I have it set for them to do so?
"Firefox can be configured to restore all windows and tabs that were open when the application is closed or terminated unexpectedly. This article describes the circumstances under which your session is restored and how you can configure it."
I have it set up, in "Tools", "Options", etc., for my windows and tabs to reopen & be restored to the webpages that they were previously at before I, for one reason or another, restarted my computer! But, after I restart my computer and the Firefox browser, it always goes to my homepage; the windows & tabs NEVER restart as they should!
It wasn't always like this. It has only been within the last few weeks that this has become a constant and consistent problem. I assume that a Firefox update somehow disabled something & that's why it isn't working properly but, whatever...
How do I fix this so that my windows & tabs reopen as they should!?

Have you checked to make sure that under>> Options >> General >> That the startup behavior is appropriately? I had the same problem after upgrading and setting my homepage. It should be set to "show my windows and tabs from last time".
Just re-read your post. sounds like you've tried this already.

  • Why won't Firefox 6 transfer to app folder, says I don't have sufficient privileges for some of the items?

    I've tried to download the most current Firefox and it downloaded but I can't save it to my apps or use it due to this error message:
    "The operation cannot be completed because you do not have sufficient privileges for some of the items." Not sure what to do now?

    Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac.

    For Mac OS X 10.4.11 or Mac OS X 10.5.8 you can look at:

  • When closing Firefox, after reopening it, my tabs are gone, even though I have Firefox set to remember session.

    When closing Firefox, after reopening it, my tabs are gone, even though I have Firefox set to remember session. However, after several hours and opening and closings of Firefox, it will open tabs from the old session, for no apparent reason.

    You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox profile folder that store session data.
    Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox profile folder.

    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Multiple_profile_files_created
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost and you will have to recreate them (make a note or bookmark them if possible).
    In case you are using "Clear history when Firefox closes":
    *do not clear the Browsing History

  • Why won't my iMac print consistantly to my compatible HP 6500A? I've checked for updates and downloaded the lasted software...still can't print. All my other Mac devices find the printer but the iMac is hit and miss. I'm operating the Mac OS X Lion 10.7.

    Why won't my iMac print consistantly to my compatible HP 6500A? I've checked for updates and downloaded the lasted software...still can't print. All my other Mac devices find the printer but the iMac is hit and miss. I'm operating the Mac OS X Lion 10.7.

    When you say hit and miss do you mean sometimes you print a whole document with no problems, or do you mean each document has problems? This is from HP's website for your printer:
    Your sig says 10.6.7 but your message says 10.7. So if it's really Lion, this printer isn't officially supported. Elsewhere on HP's site it says updated drivers will be available on your Mac via Software Update. Have you run that recently?

  • I want all new windows to open in tabs but they dont, even after I have selected the option " Open new windows in new tab instead"

    Al the details are in the question: I want all new windows to open in tabs but they dont, even after I have selected the option " Open new windows in new tab instead"

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

  • Why won't my apps show on my main screens? The only way I can access them is by going back to the App Store and clicking open.

    Why won't my apps show on my main screens? The only way I can access them is by going back to the App Store and clicking open.

    So there are no apps at all on your home screens? Try a reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot. If you don't see anything after that, take a look at all of your home screens and folders to see if something is hidden. It that doesn't work, you can go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.

  • Why can´t I use inport VI in win xp even when I have used userport aplication?

    why can´t I use inport VI in win xp even when I have used userport aplication for enabling port reading in this plattform?, I´m getting data from the parallel port in epp mode, my pc´s pararell is ok bcs I can read data in c++

    If you have an older LabVIEW (6.1 or earlier) you will need to exchange the in port and out port VIs that came with LabVIEW with different ones and install a DLL. The reason is documented here . This link (which is the first link returned when you search ni.com for "in port") explains basically that the OS won't let you until you have kernel level access. The devzone link at the bottom of the refered page will include all of the code that you need to install (VIs and DLL) to make it work.

  • Print Booklet won't let me because of multiple page sizes, even if I am using A4 for all the pages

    Booklet won't let me because of multiple page sizes, even if I am using A4 for all the pages, this is the error message:
    "The active document uses multiple page sizes Print Booklet works only with documents that use a consistent page size."
    I am using Indesign CS6 (patches are up to date)
    thank you
    Cecilia

    Do you already see this when starting the Print Booklet dialog or later when finally putting out? If you can see the dialog windows, will the preview show all pages in same size?

  • When I connect my iPhone (5s) to my computer it says that it's storage is full and that I have over 4,000 pictures even though I have deleted all of them. It won't allow me to add music or anything else either because it says my phone is full.

    When I connect my iPhone (5s) to my computer it says that it's storage is full and that I have over 4,000 pictures even though I have deleted all of them. It won't allow me to add music or anything else either because it says my phone is full. I have restarted my phone and the computer multiple times, but it still tells me that my phone is full.

    iPod touches or any iDevices from Apple sync only to one computer. If you sync to a different computer, all your music will be replace with the music from the new computer's iTunes. If the music were purchased from iTunes, you can re-download them again otherwise the music on iPod touch will be deleted. Do you have iTunes backup? 

  • Why such sorry sound quality on iTunes? On some of my purchases the sound level is suppressed on the audio. On others the volume is so low that if I have it set for another song and a new one starts I have to increase the volume to hear it.

    Why such sorry sound quality on iTunes? On some of my purchases the sound level is suppressed on the audio. On others the volume is so low that if I have it set for another song and a new one starts I have to increase the volume to hear it.
    There is so much distortion on some of the music I have to play it with QuickTime to get a "clean" track.
    What can be done to get a consistent volume level or is this another typical Apple product that you have to take what you get and be happy because it's not a Microsoft product?

    If that's the best you can do why don't you get on another forum?

  • Why can't i validate nor register my downloaded elements even tough i have a serial number from adobe store

    why can't i validate nor register my downloaded elements even tough i have a serial number from adobe store

    I'm working on a 27" imac with os x 10.9.5
    I bought elements 13 in the adobe online shop. Downloaded it and tried to install it. The moment i filled in the serial number (given by adobe) i got the message can not validate this number, try customer support.
    I called but elements is not supported by phone they redirected me to the chat. I tried to times, but the chat is not available.
    I tried to return my purchase, but for that you have to register and thats only possible when it is validated. So i bought a E 80,00 programm and can't use it.
    Then i got to my account to see in my order history (some time ago i bought lightroom and elements 12). I saw my elements 13 order and when i clicked it i saw my serial number (witch is not working) but to my astonishment is saw a price of E 100,00. And the message that something is wrong with my order history and i should contact customer support.
    On the internet i saw a lot of the same problems and i think dat adobe is not concerned at all. Just buy and thats that!!!!!
    Well anybody help help help!!!!!!!!

    SHuffle does not play songs in a truly random fashion.  Like all computer related random generators the sequence is pseudo-random
