ASA closed Firefox it opens unless it is set to private browsing
It opens and closes immediately
Clear the cache and cookies from sites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
- Tools > Options > advanced > network > storage (Cache) offline: 'clear now '.
'Delete Cookies' sites causing problems:
- Tools > Options > privacy > Cookies: "show the Cookies".
If clearing cookies doesn't help, then it is possible that the cookies.sqlite file that stores the cookies is corrupted.
Rename (or delete) cookies.sqlite (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete other files to present as cookie cookies.sqlite - journal in the profile folder of Firefox in the case where the cookies.sqlite file has been corrupted.
You can try to reset Firefox.
Reset creates a new profile and attempting to import some settings of the old profile, leaving the old profile intact.

Firefox for iOS will be modernized to enable private browsing?
I find it very useful when you use a mobile workforce or tablet to use private browsing. It will be available in a future update to the SBU version?
Hi Staylor2
Private browsing Yes happens to Firefox for iOS. I have unfortunately not yet a release date! I hope that the end of the year, but which is a unofficial assumption.
Bravo and thank you for your patience on this feature!

There is no text in the pop-up window, and when I click outside the window, there is a tone 'error' that plays. The only way I can close Firefox is to open the Task Manager and end task. I deleted Firefox on my computer and reinstalled, and it has not solved the problem. Included is a screenshot of what it looks like.
This can result from the AOL toolbar.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.
- Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance

I think it is a step backwards because I'm sure it was correct in previous beta versions.
Seems to work very well here.

WHEN I OPEN THE FIREFOX BROWSER, I DON'T SEEM TO HAVE THIS ORANGE BAR THAT SAYS FIREFOX AT THE TOP LEFT. I WATCH FILE, EDIT, VIEW, HISTORY, FAVORITES, TOOLS, AND HELP. I WANTED TO TURN ON PRIVATE BROWSING, BUT SEEMS TO HAVE LOST THE FIREFOX BUTTON THAT I NEED TO CLICK ON. THANK YOU, JANE
If you click view, toolbars, then uncheck the 'Menu Bar', you get the Firefox back button?
To turn on private browsing, you can click on the Firefox button, then 'start private browsing' or press Control, Shift, and P keys all at the same time on your keyboard.
Also, make sure that you update with the last 11 Firefox to take advantage of security fixes and stability!

I use Firefox on Mac OS 10.9.2, 29, this problem has occurred on the OS 10.8 ~ and various other versions of FF. I use 29 simply because I like it!
The problem: Firefox is configured as the default browser in all directions it is possible to set as the default value. However, when I click on a URL from any application and Firefox is closed, Firefox opens opens, my last session of navigation tabs start, but the link does not open. I must return to the application and click the link again. This only happens on Firefox. I can put any other default browser and it will open the link in a closed state.
This is happening to me, same, on Mac OS X 10.6.8 but only since I've upgraded to the latest version of Firefox, 32.0.1. I can click on a HTTP link in another application and Firefox becomes the active application, but it will not load a new tab for the link, as expected. Instead, it just sits there. I have to go back to the other application and click on the link a second time, during which point Firefox correctly open a new tab and load the destination URL.

Y at - it an option to save open tabs when I close/quit Firefox in version 4.0 (as it used to be in Firefox 3.6)?
You send messages to a system using Firefox 3.6.9 - Correct?
One of the changes in Firefox 4: by default Firefox 4 does not display the warning message when closing multiple tabs, but it can be turned on again by changing some preferences.
- Type of topic: config in the URL/address bar and press the Enter key
- Accept the warning message (promise to be careful)
- Open the preferences/list page
- Filter = browser.tabs.warnOnClose
- If its value is set to false, double-click top (in the lower panel) to toggle its value to true
- Repeat steps 4 and 5 for the 3 following preferences also:
- browser.warnOnQuit
- browser.warnOnRestart
- browser.showQuitWarning
- Note: last pref is new in Firefox 4 b 12, may need to add (boolean)

I'll be in a Web site and the spinney wheel tells me that Firefox is stuck. I have to leave Firefox, then open it. The message "Firefox is embarrassed" appears and tells me he "struggles to recover windows and tabs. He tells me to close recently opened websites... then I restore my site.
This ritual occurs every few minutes over and over again.
How to do things to normal?I have the same problem. Then please give us a solution. Appreciate it.

When I downloaded Firefox for my new computer with Windows 10, I opened Firefox and follow the instructions to put everything in place to operate, including checking my email address. When I finished this process, I had 3 tabs open. Then, I closed Firefox.
The next time I opened Firefox, 3 tabs opened. The additional 2 were on the same places they were until I closed Firefox.
I closed two additional tabs before you navigate on several times. However, whenever I open Firefox, the same tabs will appear.
How can I fix it? I want only 1 tablet to open.

You can find the homepage here:
- Tools > Options > general > startup: Homepage
Firefox supports several home pages separated by ' |' symbol (pipe).
If you do not keep the changes after a reboot or have problems with preferences, see:

So far, Firefox always pop - up would be the "danger; you are about to close x number of tabs"window when I tried closing Firefox with several tabs open. Today, however, it just closes directly on my desktop, regardless of the number of tabs are open. "Warn me when I close the tabs" checked in my menu "Tab of Options", but this still does not work. I always get warned if trying to open too many tabs at once, but he refuses to tell me when I close my tabs.
I tried checking and unchecking options, restart the computer, checked my plugins for exceeded those (the only potential problem is Shockwave Flash 17, but the other options to aide said Shockwave Flash 16 was the problem), sought user.js and went almost all the suggestions on the forums. Nothing's worked, and at this point I'm stumped.
(Also, I'd rather have Firefox clear my history when I go out, so just having my restored tabs when I restart Firefox is not my preferred option).
This problem started this afternoon; It was fine earlier in the day. This is due to an update of windows, an update of Firefox, or some strange virus?
THE SECOND UPDATE: I managed to locate the problem. Tab Mix Plus add-on is apparently not compatible with the latest Firefox update. Turn it off seems to have solved the problem for now.

Hi, if you are referring to tabs, please open Options (gear) - in the 3 menu bar unless you have moved it > general tab - "Starting Firefox," make sure that it is not set to ' show my windows and tabs from last time.»
