Firefox always opens to the last used web page
Firefox always opens to the last used web page. I tried the suggested solution (delete user. js the file of the profile folder) but cannot find such a file in the profile folder. Can you please help?
What is your computer system and Firefox?
Type of topic: preferences #general< enter > in the address bar.
There are two settings;
- At the start of Firefox
When the browser is started, what you want
view. Many of us choose view my homepage.
- Homepage
When a new page opens up, what do you want displayed.
- Use current Page. Use the pages that are never open at this time.
- Use the bookmark
- Restore by default. topic: Home shows a home page of Mozilla with tools.
You can use one of these as you want;
topic: Home (Default Firefox homepage),
on: newtab (displays the more visited sites),
Subject: vacuum (a blank page),
or you can enter any web page or Subject: page you want.

Why Firefox always opens with the last session tabs?
When I open firefox always opens with the last session tabs? How can I solve this problem?
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.
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.
You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder currently in use:
- Help > troubleshooting information > profile directory: see file (Linux: open the directory;) Mac: View in the Finder)
- http://KB.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Windows hides certain default file extensions.
Among them are .html, .ini and .js, .txt, so you can see only file name without the file extension.
You can see the type of actual file (file extension) in the properties of the file via the context menu in Windows Explorer. -
How to open search results in the same window in Firefox always done before the last update 22
Before the last update, on that I would do a search let say Google and when I found what I wanted and clicked on, that the window would turn to the result in this window, now it opens a new window. Another question is I noticed when I have gmail open in a window and open another window that result is displayed, and then switches to the original which was open, modified window and the new window is reduced in the bottom taskbar, and I come back to open it again. Whether measures should be taken, please list them.
Hi years.1, Flash is used by many sites to play videos and audio. It is also used by some sites for menu or the overall presentation systems. Some sites also use Flash to downloaders of files.
Firefox in general will let you know if a site needs a plugin to display all of the content, but you may also see a message on the site. These messages are not always specific to Flash, but can sometimes say that JavaScript is disabled or else referring to the problem.

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:

When I open Firefox, it normally opens to my home page. But it opens with the tab 'Search', although I don't want that. How to prevent this?
Since the search offered appointment on your homepage page chosen. Now, move the mouse to the upper left corner and the options for displaying, toolbars for analysis and make sure the "menu bar" is checked. This will show the options File, Edit, View, history, bookmarks and tools and help. Click on tools, then Options, and then select the current page as your home page. All should be arranged.

Why Mozilla Firefox can't find the last downloaded URL page
Can someone please solve this mystery:
- I edited a number of my web pages today and then download the whole site using FileZilla.
- To access my web pages from a browser Internet Explorer and Google Chrome, I see the latest version of all pages.
- To access my web pages of Mozilla Firefox, a number of old versions of pages is available, while some are the last downloaded version.
The problem is that Mozilla is my favorite browser, so I that the problem be resolved.
Any help would be most appreciated.
Thank you - Roy Marnewick
Hey Roy, it's hard to say.
For visitors who do not all pages of the site being cached, they should get only what is currently available. You can emulate this by opening a new private window (assuming that you are not currently using a private window) and by visiting your site in this window.
For visitors come back, what is supposed to happen is that if your site has sent a "last modified" as well as the page date, Firefox should ask the server if there is an update before displaying the cached version. It is very difficult to test, of course, because it is difficult to simulate in time...

Why Firefox doesn't load the JCPenney update web page?
I just spent an hour on the phone with JCPenney, and then we are cut off. The gal is telling me where things are running on their new website, and I'm telling him that no such thing appears on my page.
After that, we got cut, I opened Google Chrome just for the heck of it and used my LastPass to open a session for JCPenney. LO & this IS! All these things the gal was trying to tell me about the page - are actually on the page.
Now why Google Chrome will load the new site of JCPenney as Firefox continues to load the old site?
Thanks a bunch! It worked.

I use OS 10.9.2 on a Macbook Pro with Thunderbird 24.4.0. Unfortunately, it opens with "Local folder" and I can't change that. My previous Thunderbird version 3.1.20 would always open to the last mailbox I was using.
I transferred my old computer profile and everything seems to work very well
I set the preferences in the same way that I did it with the version 3.2.10, but no matter what I do, it always ends up opening to local folders.
Any suggestions?
Thank you

I have my browser open comcast.net Web page and never use tabs. I use firefox for years and am very familiar with it. He suddenly started opening on the last page, he was away when closed and began to use tabs. When I remove Firefox from my computer, he still all my settings. I had this problem once before years and finishes having to delete my entire drive to fix. I would avoid a wipe away this time. I need to know how to get ALL of the browsers install deleted registry information, so I can get a really fresh. And Yes, I have tried all the normal channels and I'm pretty computer savvy. Please help before I go nuts. I use the version the most recent, but that goes back to the old versions didn't help either. Thank you.

Software sometimes external will create or update an optional parameters file named user.js. For some reason, one of the things that often turns in there is a preference to restore your previous session at once. However, because Firefox uses user.js to override your normal parameters, whenever it starts, which then turns into a permanent change.
More contact information system (next to your message) shows that you have a user.js file. To check what are the benefits and/or remove, try this technical support article: How to fix preferences that will not save.
Note that by default, Windows hides your search Firefox profile folder and facilitate navigation in Windows Explorer. You can access the folder from inside using Firefox
- button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > troubleshooting information
- (menu bar) Help > troubleshooting information
- type or paste everything: in the address bar and press Enter
In the first table of the page, click on the view file"" button. This should start the folder in Windows Explorer.
A little luck?

I want my favorites always open, in the opinion of sidebar as I used to have in older versions of Firefox. I need to that and can not work Internet by clicking 3 times whenever I need a favorite Web site.
I can't imagine others aren't as needing their favorites still in view.{Ctrl + B} to open the bookmarks bar. While it is open, it must be open. Even when you close Firefox, it should be there the next time you open Firefox.

When I opened iMovie automatically opens to the last played film instead of asking me what I want to do. I then shut down the film before I was presented with the opportunity to create a new project. How can I stop this waste of time boring? I use the old iMovie HD 6.0.4 because I find that it is superior to the new versions. IMac 27 "2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo.
This has always been a 'feature' of iMovie 6!
The only solution I know is to move the project current iMovie to another folder, which is in documents, for example, where iMovie can't see it.

Hello
You can save your bookmarks as follows.
Launch Firefox, click bookmarks, click on "Show all bookmarks", click Import & backup in the toolbar and then click on Export HTML - choose a name for the file, select a destination and save this file.
After you have completely uninstalled firefox and then reinstalled, click bookmarks, click on "Show all bookmarks", click Import & backup in the toolbar and then click Import HTML, navigate to the location of the file and click open to restore your bookmarks.

Problem with pdf for the opening of the health gov Web site.
Problem with pdf for the opening of the health gov Web site. I use my ipad in Safari and have installed the application to adobreader. Healthcare gov support only suggested to disable the pop-up blocker. I did, and I couldn't always open the file. No problem on a desktop computer regardless of the browser.
In my view, they spend on their web server to a document ECM server authentication. Someone else has the problem?
I tried the Penguin, Chrome and Atomic browsers on the ipad and the same issue.
Thank you!
Keren
Okay, actually, I think that there is a problem with the type of form. It is a form of a special kind (called a form XFA or Designer, for what it's worth), which can be opened with Adobe Reader and only on Mac or Windows. There is no iPad software that can read these.
