35 Firefox can not customize the start page

35 Firefox does not allow me to customize the Google Home Page.

[Tools] [Options] [general] and setting up Google, click the icon home work until I exit Firefox and restart.

Then, the Home Page comes back to...
http://services.Freshy.com/General/newhometab.php?hometab=home & Partner = 11039 & GUID = {621DBCDF-2519-4EB5-B868-1127A773853D} & I =
.. .which is Yahoo.

Even tried it on: config for the change, but continues to return to Yahoo.

Is there a solution?

Your list of details of the system shows that you have a user.js file in the profile folder to initialize prefs each time you start Firefox.
The user.js file is present than if you or another software has created this file and normally it wouldn't be here.

You can check its contents with a text editor (right click: 'Open with'; do not double-click).
The user.js file is read whenever Firefox is started and initializes the preferences to the specified value in this file, so the preferences set via user.js can be changed temporarily for the current session.

You can remove the user.js file if you do not create this file yourself.

    26 of Firefox does not load the home page. Instead, it load the previous session, regardless of what has been entered in 'Options '. The browser runs in Win 7.0 64 bit; Norton Internet Suite 21 provides security features. There are some solutions 'cloud', also running as Google Drive, box, Skydrive and Cubby. The browser behaves in the same way in all my machines (installation and the OS is similar to that described above) and no amount of reset 'Options' seems to affect it. Nor is it affected by the way that Firefox is closed. This is obviously a bug that should be fixed.

    You can check if you have a user.js file in the Firefox profile folder that affects the pref browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once true value.

  • After installation or upgrade to Firefox 31, starting Firefox does not display the home page, personalize displays a blank page and the radio button does not work

    I am the admin of Windows for a University Department and install PC with Firefox all the time. This problem does not occur with every PC I would maintain, only a selection bit (model different laptops with Windows and update 1 8.1.) Until today, it has happened with the new user (with admin rights) accounts that I place on laptops for our staff. Today, this happened with the account administrator while setting up a new laptop. In all cases so far, I have install Windows from a registered image that was created by using sysprep.

    I tried many suggestions to reset Firefox, removing the profile of Firefox users, removing the Windows profile users, uninstalling/reinstalling Firefox, uninstall/reinstall of Firefox and the latest Java, but nothing helped. After uninstalling, I run an application to delete the caches and temporary files and even remove manually the keys to register HKLM\SOFTWARE\Mozilla and HKCU\SOFTWARE\Mozilla. I restart and make sure that the installation folder is deleted after uninstalling.

    Results are the same: after installing Firefox 31, the initial settings for migration, IE or Chrome pop up and after having clicked on the button finish, Firefox starts but does not display the home page of the new user, only a blank page. By clicking on the Options (3 bars) button does nothing. Right click in the appropriate box, the shortcut menu appears, so I can choose to customize, but which opens another tab with subject: Customize the URL and the page is blank. In the right click context menu, I can activate the menu bar and get options from that.

    My last attempt helped a little. I uninstalled Firefox 31, cleaned, removed the profile user Firefox, rebooted and then installed Firefox 30. Initial start-up runs and tells me that I'm not up-to-date and the works of button Options. But I can't always customize.

    Then I upgraded to Firefox 31, but then it's back to no start page, no options button and no customization. I can go down to 30 and get customize practically works again.

    Addon only is for McAfee Scriptscan to Firefox 15.1.0, just after installation is disabled.

    Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

  • Firefox Mobile - can't get the Start Page to load

    For the life of me, I can't not my selected 'Start Page', any option to choose to load at startup of firefox.

    Regardless of the option that I get, "Firefox Start", "Current Page", "Custom" Page, it always starts with the last tab, I have seen in the previous session.

    I close firefox using Advanced Task Killer. Restart it, see the "loading" screen and it just goes to the last page I was on.

    It drives me crazy!

    1. Type "subject: config" in the address bar, then press Enter/Go on your keyboard
    2. Search for "crash."
    3. Tap "browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash.
    4. Press the button to change from "true" to "false".
  • customize the start page of Zimbra

    Dear creative beekeepers,

    Zimbra will probably be our preferred to access non-campus, we would like to make some customizations to the start page or common to all the secondary dialogue frameworks.

    Already, we wondered why Oracle do not place some logo or suspicion on hive it (OK, the login page has a logo of the hive).

    Oracle will give customers tips on how to make customizations?

    Best regards, Thomas

    Hi Thomas,

    The said license if you (Oracle) wants to distribute the client Zimbra open source, it must be done not changed. That's why you get the same "non customized", Zimbra client with the logo "Zimbra collaboration suite.

    Nobody stops the final customer of customization. Indeed, you will find various sources on the internet for the extension / customize the skins and it's layout.

  • Tecra M5: Can not access the internet pages, but can ping in cmd.exe

    Hi all, this is confusing to me.

    I've been happily connected to my WLAN for more than a year without any problems. I recently updated my drivers for the following on my Tecra M5:

    -Intel Pro Wireless adapt
    -Drivers audio Sigmatel
    -nVidia graphics card

    Now, after facilities, everything was fine. However, a few days later, I turned on the laptop and went to IE7 and it cannot display the web page (my homepage is www.google.co.uk). I called my ISP to help and they reported problems on the service, and they gave me the www.google.co.uk ip address I got a response of in cmd.exe. It seems that I can get out on the internet but I can't access the Web pages - it could be a DNS issue?

    I have disabled my A - V and firewall and tried but get the same question. I also tried to restore the PC back more than a month and it did not help either. I'd appreciate any help that anyone can give.

    I also plugged the laptop directly into the router using an ethernet cable, so it's not only a wireless issue either.

    I have installed any other software at all at the moment and the only other thing that got my attention, it's that, in the field of restoration, there a lot of system restore points, which I wasn't expecting to see in the last month. But it could be a Kipper.

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    According to your message, you are not able to connect to internet via LAN and WLan. Is this good?

    Well, in your case I would first check the router settings and re still.
    In addition, you must reset the router.

    Usually, the router assigns the IP address, and therefore you would just plug the laptop LAN cable and then should be able to connect to the internet.
    Please note that the TCP/IP protocol settings must be set to automatic.

    Check everything first!

  • The text box to define a start page is greyed out and I can't change the start page.

    When I go to the Options screen, the "Mozilla Firefox Start Page" text box is gray and unchanging. If I navigate to a page, and then set that as my start page, close and restart Firefox back to the Firefox/Google homepage - my homepage setting is not saved.

    I tried to reset Firefox, restart with Add-ons disabled, even delete and recreate a new profile, but he always does.

    Some Firefox problems can be solved by performing a clean reinstall. This means that you remove Firefox program files, and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:

    Note: You can print these steps or consult them in another browser.

    1. Download the latest version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org office and save the installer to your computer.
    2. Once the download is complete, close all Firefox Windows (click on quit in the file menu or Firefox).
    3. Remove the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
      • Windows:

        • C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
        • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox
      • Mac: Delete Firefox in the Applications folder.
      • Linux: If you have installed Firefox with the distribution-based package manager, you must use the same way to uninstall: see Install Firefox on Linux. If you have downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.
    4. Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
      1. Double-click on the downloaded Setup file and go through the steps in the installation wizard.
      2. Once the wizard is completed, click to open Firefox directly after clicking the Finish button.

    Please report back to see if this helped you!

  • Why Firefox can not display the content of the right that IE is doing well?

    It has been long. Whenever firefox has been directed to the page for papers (not just this one, but each book link), it appears like the screenshot. I thought it was the question on the Web page until I used IE. IE shows everything correctly but not Firefox.

    What are the settings that I was wrong?

    Thank you.

    The server sends the text/css content type, you should not have to substitute it.

    You access the site through any proxy which may change the content-type header?

    As a temporary workaround, you can have Firefox tell the server that you do not gzip output. This will increase the time to download for some files, but if this site is important to you, you can use it for now, until a solution is found.

    (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press enter/return. Click on the button promising to be careful.

    (2) in the search above the list box, type or paste encod and make a pause so that the list is filtered

    (3) double-click the preference network.http.accept - encoding and remove gzip and the comma after she and click OK to save the changes (to restore the default later, you can click right > reset preference)

  • How can I get the start page to access my HR projects?

    I use RH8 and IE7.

    I have a start page which is just an html page, not created in Robohelp. It is basically a table of contents that links to about 10 HR projects.

    I create my HR projects and put them in the same folder, but each project has its own subfolder. The structure looks like this:

    c:/RHGen82/NewFolder/Project1.htm

    c:/RHGen82/newfolder2/Project2.htm

    I got my start page in this folder (not created HR):

    c:/RHGen82/mainpage/mainpage.htm

    When I create links on my main page to project, everything works fine on my computer.

    I take all the RHGen82 file and put it on another computer C drive. It does not work. The link goes to... /RHGen82/NewProject/Project1.htm and I think that it work, but it does not work.

    I have read your Webhelp calling using URL and I think that perhaps my answer, but I do not understand what I read. Can you shed some light?

    Yes, we could have used fusion projects, but is not what management wants.

    Any help is appreciated with gratitude.

    Pat

    Hi Pat.

    With your existing directpry structure links must be:

    c:/RHGen82/NewFolder/Project1.htm

    c:/RHGen82/newfolder2/Project2.htm

    This is because projects are located outside the structure of directories of your start page. If you were to use the following directory structure:

    c:/RHGen82/mainpage/mainpage.htm

    c:/RHGen82/mainpage/Project1/Project1.htm

    c:/RHGen82/mainpage/Project2/Project2.htm

    you would be able to use the link syntax:

    Project1/project1.htm

    Project2/project2.htm
