• Sometimes I want to just close ONLY a window, but Firefox closes all THE TABS, and I don't want to!

  Sometimes, I open multiple windows, especially from my box from Comcast. When I'm through with this window, I will conclude, but leave others more open. FIrefox won't do this anymore when I close the 1 window, Firefox send me a message stating that it is to CLOSE all THE TABS. I DON'T want TO CLOSE all of them, I want to just close the window I close!. This is very annoying, because I have to re - login to all, because FIrefox is 'CLOSE all THE TABS', and everything I want to do to close a window... I'm about to chuck this browser... I tried to find an answer to this in the tools, but was unable to do so. Please help me with this

  Make sure that you do not click the X close in the title bar like that closes the active window with all the tabs.

  If you have the tab bar visible then click the X close this tab or mid, tab, or use the shortcut Ctrl + W key to close the tab.

  If the resulting tab bar hidden then see:

  The toolbars are still on display in your browser?

  If you still have the address bar, right click on any part that is not a text box or the icon, or if you do not like that of any space right click on the three horizontal lines on the right side of the address bar window. This should show some options, click on 'Menu Bar' and the tabs you are missing should appear.

  As a side note, usually if these options are missing, your icon of firefox in the upper left corner of the window should look different (being a rectangular button itself as opposed to an icon), and the 'file', 'Edition', 'Bookmarks', etc., are found after clicking on this button.

  Hope that helps.

• Firefox has blocked just the extension of bookmarks iCloud (May 17, 2016).

  Firefox has blocked just the extension of bookmarks iCloud (May 17, 2016).

  https://Bugzilla.Mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1271358

  United Nations-usefully, they also apparently blocked all access to the information on the extension of the used to be in their system. I can't access any index on which is the author or how to contact support for the extension. By reading the help of Apple:

  Get help using iCloud and playlist - Apple Support bookmarks

  https://support.Apple.com/en-us/HT203519

  It seems that the extension is automatically installed with Windows iCloud and is ready to be activated without any specific download. Which seems to indicate Apple is the responsible developer...  Is this true? Y at - it a direct route to report bugs in these products?

  I had not noticed problems with Firefox crashes on startup, with Firefox under Windows 10 and iCloud 5.2 46.0.1. Wonder why these few people began to see in April...  Firefox in Mac users are also blocked?

  I can't believe that you have not yet even one answer!  I have the same exact symptoms - very annoying!

• How to completely disable the favicons in the tabs and bookmarks on ff 14

  I want to get rid completely of icons, including the empty box from firefox

  You must create a folder of chrome in the Firefox profile folder and in the chrome folder, you must create a userChrome.css file if the file is currently not present.
  
  You can paste the above posted the code in the file by using a text editor (i.e. do not use special formatting).
  
  The chrome and userChrome.css names are case-sensitive.

  You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:

• After that "Refresh Firefox" was finished, I lost all the tabs I would be implemented in my search engine Duckduckgo - how to restore all tabs?

  I used "Refresh Firefox" because for the past 2 weeks, I suddenly had to download all PDFs, save them, and then go to saved to open the PDF file. After severa pages on Mozilla's Support site, l I thought "Refresh Firefox" would help. Now I can choose Duckduckgo as my search engine in Firefox, but have lost all tabs (history, bookmarks, etc.). FYI: I have Windows 7 on this laptop. I have no other computers.
  Thank you - hope you can help.

  Hi, I think you're talking to the menu bar. If so, right click on the bar of tabs (but not on a tab) and graduation/check bar menu.

  Other buttons can be found in the 3 menu bar > customize, drag a toolbar to the location of your choice, > exit customize to save.

  If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.

• My macbook froze and I had to turn it off. When restarting and opening ff, ff did not restore the previous session and I lost all the tabs.

  There is no trace of the previous session, to the title of the menu bar. I know it's common, I hope someone has a new response.
  Thank you

  The xtra74pv.default file is the Firefox profile folder, if the file is in the right place and needed to be moved.

  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox

  If you have an older version of the sessionstore.js file from before the crash then you need to replace the current sessionstore.js with the old copy to see if brings back the lost tabs.

• Shockwave Flash has crashed; Firefox now removes all my tabs and groups when closing! Help!

  I sent a crash report. Everything was fine until I clicked on 'X' to close the program. A dialog box pops up asking if I wanted to close multiple tabs I had open. I clicked on cancel, checked my Options: I "When Firefox starts" the value "show my windows and tabs from last time" as always. I tried again to close Firefox and got the same dialogue. I clicked to close. I re-opened Firefox, reopen the now missing tabs, then click on it to close the bottle. Same dialogue.

  Sorry to hear about the accident. You can share your reports of incidents with volunteers of the forum to see if it points to the solution. Please check the last section of the support article "Firefox plant - troubleshoot and prevent assistance fixing crashes" for steps get these IDs crash since the topic: block the page and then after the most recent here.

  Some users who suffer from the stop accidents reported that the problem occurs only with the Red 'X' button and not when they close Firefox by using the menu (either):

  • "3-bar" menu button > button "power".
  • (menu bar) File > Exit

  Could you try next time instead as a workaround?

• Windows 7 has lost all my settings and started looking for XP

  I have a new laptop with Windows 7 (64-bit). I'm about to install the software, I need for work and customize the settings. Everything worked up to now, when happened the following.

  -J' installed software (nothing special, for example (from a reliable source) existing communication software)

  -J' restarted the computer

  -All my settings for the taskbar and toolbar are lost (they disappear). The button (which is instead of the XP Start button) effectively changed to start button (looks like the XP Start button). The translucent window headers changed to those not translucent (as I'm used to XP). The bar of tasks/toolbar settings won't save any more (even if I register, they go back to an earlier version)

  How can I go back to 'Windows 7' and get my settings? What could have caused this strange behavior?

  I did this before on my own just see if I liked better. I did not so I went back to the Windows 7 look. In your case, there are a few different scenarios that can cause this.

  1. your theme has changed without your consent. -You can fix this with a right-click on your desktop and go to personalize . Change your theme to one that you have registered or by using the Windows 7 default labeled "Windows 7" theme. From there, you can simply add your images to customize your wallpaper.

  2. your Visual effect have been replaced by 'adjust for best results' .

  Open the menu 'Start' and right-click on computer . Go to Properties .

  Near the top-right corner of this window, you should see "advanced system settings" , click on it.

  Click the Advanced tab. Under performance , click settings .

  From here (depending on your graphics card), choose either ' let Windows choose what is best for my computer ' or ' Adjust to improve the appearance '.»» Click OK .

  3. Finally your graphics card driver.<->

  Is not as likely to happen by simply installing a program, but it's not of the unheard. Windows 7 will come back to that look older if somewhat your driver is corrupted and windows is still trying to allow you to use your computer. If you uninstall or damage your driver (ex installed a new graphics card) your computer can use graphics embedded gives you the possibility to use some of the nicer features of Windows 7 like the transparency and Aero Peek.

  Again, this is not as often, but if the other 2 suggestions above do not alleviate your problems try to reinstall your graphics card driver.

  http://www.nvidia.com/download/index5.aspx?lang=en-us-> for Nvidia

  If you are not sure of this graphic card you have click on your Start Menu , go to the search box and press Device Manager type enter. Click the arrow next to display adapters .

  A drop down menu should appear showing you graphics card. Go to one of the sites above to update or restore your drivers.
