Firefox launch iTunes
I am running Windows 7 64 bit. I have 11 of Firefox with the Noscript plugin. I installed iTunes 10.6.1 (although I had the same problem with 10.6).
The music on iTunes link at the bottom of http://www.americanidol.com/ does not work properly in IE8 (which I usually do not use) - it does not work for firefox.
In firefox, it falls on http://www.apple.com/itunes/affiliates/download/ that says to download the item you just requested, you must have iTunes.
In IE8, it launches the link
http://iTunes.Apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewMultiRoom?fcId=509635833 & i = 1 gn-mscache & ign - msr = http % 3A % 2F %2F www.americanidol.com% 2F
When I paste this link into IE8 it launches straight into iTunes, but when I paste in Firefox goes back to this download page.
I finally understood what the problem/solution. To fix, I had to add AmericanIdol.com to NoScript XSS white list in the advanced options (allowing just temporarily all the scripts for all the pages referenced by AmericanIdol.com and Apple.com does not solve the problem).

When I opened iTunes App Store link, Firefox wants to automatically open iTunes. In Options > Applications, I found the itms and itmss content types, which causes this behavior. I can change "always ask them", but when I do, I get a automatic every time I open the link asking me to choose between "iTunes" or "Choosing an Application." To avoid future pop ups, I check "Remember my choice for itmss links" but only after selecting iTunes or another application. There should be a third option there for 'doing nothing '. Is it possible to tell Firefox to ignore completely the content of the itms/itmss?
COR - el said
Is there some prefs the protocol handler if you are looking for the topic: config page?
- Network.protocol - handler.
You just solved my problem - there is no Network.protocol - handler.external. itms or itmss prefs, so I added the Boolean values:
Network.protocol - handler.external.itms
Network.protocol - handler.external.itmssSet to false and voila! No iTunes, don't ask me what program to use.

Firefox launches Zimbra Desktop for mailto links
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit Core 2 Duo
Run Firefox 26.
Installed Zimbra Desktop Email client, when I click on mailto links, it offers only Yahoo and Gmail.
In IE and other programs Zimbra launches when I use these programs messaging features.
Zimbra is set to the default e-mail client.
Also curiously the download button in the upper right does not work, I can see downloads but when I click the button nothing.
Usually Firefox will be check out your email client by default in the registry or a good highlight.
Sometimes the file that stores the file associations is damaged with updates and either conflicting entries correctly. The solution is simply to rename the file and have Firefox regenerate. If you want to try, here's what you do.
Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using
Help > troubleshooting information > "view file" button.
Leave this window open, wwitch back to Firefox and output
Pause while Firefox finishing his cleaning, then rename the mimeTypes.rdf to something like mimeTypes.old
Restart Firefox. I hope that now Zimbra is detected and you can select. Please note that if you already changed your configuration to a PDF file from the viewer into another, you have to change it again.

How to stop firefox launches a second browser while moving between tabs.
I almost always have several tabs open in firefox and intermittently when I return to a window with tabs rather than open this window in my browser current firefox will launch a new (second) browser and open my old tab here - closing the tab in the first browser.
I move between the tabs by clicking the tab and most of the time it will open the tab, but exactly the same thing intermittently will launch this second browser.
All other functions with firefox work normallyVersions of Firefox 3.5 and later have a feature called tabs.
You can detach a tab in the current window and open in a new window by dragging a tab in the browser window.
You can drag the tab to the tab bar in the original window to cancel this detachment.bug489729 (Disable detach and tear off tab):

Before the last update Firefox, running on Ubuntu if it makes a difference, I was able to select close on the file menu (and if memory is also by clicking the x on the last tab) to exit an instance of Firefox open via file new window.
With the 9.x update this no longer seems to be possible. If I choose the file altogether starting an instance that was launched via the new window, all instances of Firefox away!
It's embarrassing because I have to leave all the instances that have been launched.
I tried closing last tab add on, and it allows me to close the last tab content but still leaves the instance running with a blank tab.
Is there a setting somewhere that I missed to restore the operating mode to exit the additional instances of Firefox without killing all the previous configuration?
Thank you
BurtEach window must have its own close button (big X in the right corner.)
But it depends on the 'Theme' that you use in Ubuntu. This large X chould be a round point when you hover over the color changes. It could be on the left instead of the right site.
This screenshot shows the close the left side, but always an X button.CTRL + SHIFT + W closed the window Active.
CTRL + W closes the current tab. -

How to disable the auto reload Tabs on Firefox-launch
Hello
I have an old laptop and it takes a lot of time to launch Firefox if there are a lot of tabs from the old session.
How can I stop Firefox to reload all the old tabs at startup?
Thanks for your help
FlorianOK if you use TabMixPlus, reset or set this parameter to FireFox.
- extensions.tabmix.autoReloadContent
Credit when it is earned, use the:
- AboutPages extension
Initially the options!
For programmers of firefox and tab-extension (who probably don't read this)... STOP making decisions for me. I often use a mobile broadband and reload the tabs or pages that I didn't 'NOW' is not only time-consuming, it costs me money that I don't need to waste!
Not everyone has a T1 connection for firefox-sake.
Oh, my apologies. Yes I test this with my most recent restoration of Session Manager session. The tabs that does not recharge while mobile broadband was off; do NOT recharge after turning on the internet-back, when I clicked on the tab. Excellent, just what I need.
Internet users colleagues good luck!

Download "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. "message at the launch of iTunes in Win XP SP3. Microsoft Management Console is missing the file run for local service "Application Management". I've exhausted all the suggestions of Apple online support.
Excuse me, but I'm not going to try very hard to help to repair a system that has been trashed by the use of a registry cleaner (see note below).
That said...
I suggest following the procedure below between the lines of * to uninstall remainders of your old installation of iTunes and do a clean install of iTunes:
***************************************************************************************************
New facilities corrupted iTunes.
Used to have a tool just to do this, called the Windows Installer Microsoft Cleanup utility. Apparently, however, when this tool has been used (I think with MS Office), removes sometimes more he was supposed to, and that's why Microsoft has removed the tool of its download servers.
The Windows Installer Cleanup utility is always available from http://majorgeeks.com/Windows_Installer_CleanUp_Utility_d4459.html , or you can use the free Revo Uninstaller. Before using or the other of these tools, create a restore point from the system, backup the registry with C:\WINDOWS\ERUNT, or (if you can afford) creates a full disk image or a clone - just in case.
Here are the usual directions to perform a "clean installation" of iTunes, based on Support of Apple HT1926 article.
Go to control panel > Add/Remove programs
Remove these applications:
1 Apple Software Update
2. Apple Mobile Device Support
3 Hello
4 iPod for Windows (this may or may not exist, be it, it is not necessary, then we can remove it)
5 iTunes
6 QuickTimeOpen my computer > C: > Program Files
Delete these files (if present)
1 iPod
2 iTunes
3 QuickTimeEmpty your temp directory:
Open my computer > C: > Documents & Settings > username > Local Settings and delete the contents of the folder called "Temp".If you don't see the local settings, enable hidden files:
Tools > Folder Options > view tab
Select Show Hidden Files & folder, and then click OKOnce this file is empty, restart the computer
[See note above regarding cleanup utility]
Download & install the Windows Installer Cleanup utility:
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/290301/
Launch the utility: start > programs > Windows Installer Clean Up
Select one of the applications mentioned above and click on removeRestart the computer
Download & reinstall iTunes from here: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/***************************************************************************************************
The question of the function of management applications may be relevant to your problem, because this service provides software installation services. However, management of service applications is not included in Windows XP Home Edition (you don't mention what version of XP you have), IMO so chances are that this has nothing to do with your problem are low.
You could take a peek in the "system" log in the event viewer (start > run > eventvwr > OK) for any errors of "Service Control Manager" and if yes, double click it and see if they mention the applications management service. If there's nothing there, click the "Copy" icon (right underneath the up/down arrows) and paste the information into an answer here.
The "status" of the service is not as important as the "Startup type". The latter is supposed to be set to 'Manual', which means that the service will be launched whenever something that needs the services requested.
The reason why your search has not is that you were looking for the wrong thing. There is no file named "svchost.exe - k netsvcs" - he has just svchost.exe.
Svchost.exe is a Windows XP application core. It is used for processes of 'host' run from dynamic link (DLL files) libraries rather than the exe or other executables directly. The rest of this line (i.e. - k netsvcs) indicates a particular instance of svchost.exe which group (defined in the registry) services will be hosted by this instance of svchost. For more details, see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314056/

Hello ronthomasfsu,

You can have another program that is interfering with iTunes on Windows 7.You have errors in the event log?
To open Event Viewer: click on the Start button. In the search box, type and then event viewer from the list of results, double-click Event Viewer.
Then, check the logs of system and Application events for possible errors.Then, since it was an upgrade of Windows Vista, you can try the following to see if it will be useful.
Run the System File Checker to see if you have corrupted system files.
Click Start
Type: CMD, according to the results, right-click CMD
Click on "Run as Administrator"
At the command prompt, type: sfc/scannowThis will check for any violation of the integrity and repair any damaged operating system files.
Reboot your system.
See: the Article ID: 929833 - how to use the System File Checker tool to troubleshoot missing or corrupted system files on Windows Vista or Windows 7
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833
Now run the command chkdsk:

3. disconnect all external devices before installing.
4. check your hard disk for errors:

When you restart your system, your computer will be scanned for errors and will try to correct them.Now, try and see if iTunes will install or update successfully.
If the problems persist, you can do a upgrade in Place or repair.
Follow the steps below to perform a repair.The upgrade in place is a tool to fix the system. Thanks to the special upgrade process, we will be able to repair the system. The upgrade in place will not affect the settings like photos, movies, documents, etc. that are saved on the computer. Although this operation will not remove or modify the files and installed programs, I suggest always that you back up important files before you do. In addition, you may need to reinstall the device drivers after this operation.
The detailed steps are included as below:
On-site upgrade
====================
1 log on to the system first.
2. Insert the Windows 7 DVD in the DVD drive of the computer.
3. Click Start and select computer.
4. find the "setup.exe" file in the DVD-ROM and double-click it.
5. click on install now.6. When you are prompted to enter the product key, please click Next directly without entering any key. The installation wizard will prompt and ask if you confirm to install Windows 7 without the key and choose please confirm.
7. When you get to the screen ' which type of installation you want', click upgrade to upgrade the Windows 7 system files.
Note: When running the upgrade on the spot, the system will restart automatically (several times) to merge the files and programs, please leave the computer alone and does not configure it until the 'upgrade on the spot"finished. The system should start Windows 7, once it is upgraded. Once the computer is running "upgrade on the spot", you can go and leave the computer and it completes automatically.Now, try again and see if iTunes update and install.
If please reply back and let us know if this helped with your question.

Firefox launches several times without asking
I tried to restore my system windows 7. .no help. I tried to remove Firefox, got MSG that he was "still ongoing" and although he was not running... can not remove it...
From my own experience: the message "always running" is correct, because there is still a Firefox (or two or more) running in the background. To remove
- Start the Task Manager
- sort the list in the process tab and
- remove entries from Firefox
Of course, you can get rid of them by simply booting the PC.

I found on another site that when you choose stop there is a checkbox indicating to reopen the windows when you log back in. If the box is checked apps/windows you had open when stopping down, i.e. firefox will autolaunch when you restart your computer. I unchecked the box and firefox did not autolaunch again. I hope this helps.
