• Firefox does not appear (it will be 'open', although it seems that it is open in the taskbar)

  I don't know if it's a coincidence that he himself has updated to 37.0, but it must be...

  When I click the task bar on Firefox and on the desktop icon, it opens on the taskbar, when I select the taskbar it shows even Firefox loaded Google (my default Web page)... But it never occurred to the screen.

  I have:
  -Windows 8.0 (No 8.1 and I'm not on the upgrade because it works better than 8.1)
  -Noscript add-on/plugin, or more
  -the drivers up to date

  I tried:
  -Uninstall and reinstall the version the most recent (37.0)
  -Uninstall 37.0 and installation of Firefox Web site archive 36.0
  -Restart my computer after install
  -Disabling service maintenance on installation

  I "allow" - ed the windows popup install twice and it does not help.
  The first time, it tries to open, she went to the yellow background on the taskbar to open programs, you have not yet used.
  However, when I click on it nothing comes on the screen. When I select always watch here my homepage. I can't do the thing in firefox update because I can't even display. I don't get the error messages on my computer, which is weirder. I updated and ran windows defender full scan and found nothing (but it is not surprising to "defender", lol).

  Once he opens the first time, even open another page opens nothing. Then it crashes and does close, even if you right click and you try to close all the windows... I have to use the Task Manager to close at the end of task...

  I don't know how to open the 'xpi' convenience store thing, sorry...

  And no whining, but why is - it so suddenly broken XD... And more important still, how in the world I can't come back to work? I use this terrible chrome I got lucky to have right on my computer already, which I only got to see one thing a long time ago and I forgot I even had Chrome... And as much as I hate to use chrome, it is actually works perfectly for me now... Thank you for any help will be much appreciated...

  The Firefox window is sometimes "off screen" somehow. Often, you can force it to appear on the screen by right clicking on the thumbnail image just above the taskbar and choose expand. Does it work?

  A possible cause for this is that the file that stores the positions and sizes of window is corrupt.

  #1 method: If you can get a zoomed window:

  Open the settings folder (AKA Firefox profile) current Firefox help

  • 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 launch a new window that lists the various files and folders in Windows Explorer.

  Leave this window open, switch back to Firefox and output, either:

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

  Pause while Firefox finishing its cleanup, then rename xulstore.json to something like xulstore.old. If you see a file named localstore.rdf, rename this to localstore.old as well.

  Launch Firefox back up again. Windows normally appear again?

  #2 method: If you can not get a Firefox window for all:

  Close Firefox by right clicking the icon in the taskbar > close all windows.

  Using the Run dialog box (windows key + R) or search from the start menu (bar (or, in Windows 8 may bar charms bar research?) type or paste the following and press ENTER to drill down to the profiles folder):

  %AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles

  Here you can see a folder - in this case, double-click that - or more than one case - in this case, double-click on in what looks like the most recently updated.

  Scroll down and rename xulstore.json to something like xulstore.old. If you see a file named localstore.rdf, rename this to localstore.old as well.

  Launch Firefox back up again. Windows normally appear again?

  Thank you! Your thing 'out of scope' brought me exactly what I need! I realized it was broken because of my second monitor/TV... It wasn't "on" the TV, but because he was off it broke somehow... So, once I've restarted BOTH on, she came back to my main screen/monitor (no tv). I don't know why he did it, but he must have crashed on my main screen because the TV was turned off... Strange...

• I have Firefox pinned to the taskbar in Windows 7. After the upgrade to Firefox 9 when I open firefox I have an extra firefox icon in my taskbar then have firefox open. It allows to determine as being open on the icon that is pinned to the taskbar.

  • Installed Firefox 9
  • I am running Windows 7 64 bit
  • I have Firefox pinned to the taskbar.
  • When Firefox opens, there is a new icon which opens onto the bar spots. Normally Firefox would open within the icon that is pinned to the taskbar.
  • When I close Firefox, the extra icon disappears.
  • Firefox is acting like the icon that is pinned to the taskbar isn't still there.

• Is it possible to add a HIGHLIGHT / COLOR for a browser window open on the taskbar?

  Hello. We use Outlook Web APP.
  At the same time, we have several windows open on the taskbar.
  Is it possible to be able to highlight or maybe 'color' expressly only this browser window is no longer visible among all the other open windows?

  Thank you.

  I don't think that it is possible to set a background color the buttons of the label on the Windows taskbar-specific because this bar is under the control of the Windows operating system.
  
  What is displayed above is to set a specific color to tabs in a Firefox window.

• Windows7 windows show open on the taskbar, but seem to be out of the screen-how can I get the focus?

  New Windows 7 and Firefox - icon in the taskbar, but will not display the window on the screen. When I put the cursor on the icon the little windows show which is open. It seems that the windows display is somewhere off the coast on the right side of the screen. Don't have a clue as to how it happened. How can I get the windows on the desktop where I can see? Thanks for all the tips that will help you.

  In Windows 7, pressing/holding the windows key and right arrow key FINALLY made the window reappear to me! Deleting the localstore.rdf did NOT work for me, unfortunately.

• After you have installed java version 8 day 66 on OS 10.10.5 Firefox opens but refuses to answer.

  I restarted Firefox, then restarted the computer. Firefox opens but I can't open any bookmark or type any address in the box. Does not at all.

  It could be the work of one of your modules.
  Type of topic: addons< enter > in the address bar to open your add-ons Manager.
  Access key; < Control >(Mac: < command >)< shift > has)

  In the Manager of Add-ons, on the left, select Extensions.
  Disable some add-ons, then restart Firefox.

  Some added addons toolbar and anti-virus are known to cause
  Firefox issues. Disable all of them.

  If the problem persists, disable some more (restarting FF). Continue until the
  the problem disappeared. After, you know which group is the origin of the problem.
  Reactivate the last group ONE AT A TIME (reboot FF) until the problem reports.

  Once you think you have found the issue, that disable and reactivate all the
  others, then restart. Let us know who the suspect is detective.

  I get 'Tab in Firefox, open now,' when a link is clicked. It's something new after an update. I hate adding an extra step to open a link. It is very annoying. How to stop? I am under Android 5.0 on Samsung S5.

  Hi, in order to activate or disable the queuing tab refer to Open links in the background for later with Firefox for Android viewing.

• How can I stop firefox open Web sites related to my search?

  Hello.

  I'm having a problem with firefox and it's getting really annoying.

  When I search something in the upper right search box, Firefox opens a Web site with my research already established in the site (e.g. ebay or amazon, but it is irrelevant because I am looking something like "How do I ") but I don't want to do that, he has never opened a site I want.

  I also disabled at each outside of google's search engine within the parameters of "search".

  I also refreshed firefox and reinstalled several times.

  Thank you

  
  

• Firefox opens from icon and appears on the toolbar. can't open the toolbar

  Firefox opens when I click the icon. The FIREFOX icon in the toolbar, and I can't seem to open there. I click on it and the browser is in the icon, but I can't seem to open completely. I removed and installed 2 new facilities and same problem. The only thing that has changed on my computer is that I added a new monitor. IE opens properly

  It was very good work. Play well.
  Please report your last post as solved while others will know.

• Is there a way to disable the function where firefox opens a new tab when you scroll a click in the header bar?

  Is there a way to disable the function where firefox opens a new tab when you scroll a click in the header bar? This feature in conflict with my program of multiple monitors (display fusion) since this program allows you to change your current active window the monitor 1 monitor 2 and vice versa BY clicking the header of BAR SCROLLING (or whatever you call the highest part of your window). With firefox, I can't easily change my active window between monitors because instead, it opens a new tab.

  If the window is maximized, you can then switch this pref to disable the display of the tabs in the title bar:

  • browser.tabs.drawInTitlebar = false

  You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
  You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.

• Firefox opens reduced to a minimum and may not display the window upwards (PC)

  Firefox "opens" when you click on it, but the window does not appear. Hovering over the icon, the window is visible, but will not appear when selected. Uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox; "Parentlock" rebooted, removed and several other fixes.

  Could you send us a screen capture when you are hovering over the icon?

  Otherwise, you can try to start Firefox in Safe Mode.

  1. Close Firefox completely: open the Task Manager, find the firefox.exe process and end it.
  2. Launch Firefox by holding down SHIFT on your keyboard.

  The Firefox window appears normally?

• rather than open to my home page, Firefox opens according to the page it was when I closed the application

  Until yesterday, whenever I started Firefox, opened it to the home page I selected. During the day yesterday, has changed: now, when I open Firefox, it loads everything that was the last page, it was during the previous session. I checked the settings and the right address for my homepage still appears there. How can I get this "reset" so that whenever I open the app it loads the home page that I have chosen? Thanks for your help...

• Firefox opens spontaneously to URL when I restart

  Whenever I restart my MacBook Pro under OS X 10.10.3 Firefox opens spontaneously to the URL file:///Library/Application%20Support/Adobe/Help/en_US/Dreamweaver/9.0_Extending/help.html?content=dwr_floating_panels_fp_12.html.

  I have no idea why.

  It seems to work normally otherwise.

  Is it possible I can stop this?

  I am running Firefox 38.0.5.

• Browser Firefox opens not today though I used it for years

  I tried to open Firefox this morning, but it does not open. I use Win 8.1. I tried to open it with shortcuts and programs files. I tried to reboot the system. Nothing seems to work. Chrome and IE times open & connect to the internet.

  I could find no conflict with the firewall or security software.

  I didn't know what to do, so I downloaded a new copy of Firefox and installed without banishing what already existed. After that, Firefox open right & I still had all my favorites and saved passwords. In any case, it now works fine.

  Thanks for the tips.
