• Disagreement with Firefox 3, Firefox 4 does not register the tabs open when I leave to have several tabs open. How can I do this in Firefox 4?

  In Firefox 3, when I got to close the program to have several tabs open, Firefox asked me if I wanted to save and remember the tabs open, so that I can get them at the next restart of Firefox. Firefox 4 is no more. Is it because I have have not properly set up somehow, or is this normal? How can I recover this function?
  Thanks in advance,
  Andrea

  A Firefox 4 is from Firefox showing the default warning message will stop, but it can be turned on again by changing some preferences.

  1. Type of topic: config in the address bar and press on enter
  2. Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
  3. Find browser.tabs.warnOnClosepreference, if its value is set to false, double-click on it to change its value to true
  4. Repeat this for 3 preferences browser.warnOnQuit, the browser.warnOnRestart and the browser.showQuitWarning

• 28.0 Firefox does not save my tabs open between sessions - Mac OS x on MacBook Pro

  (I was intending to respond to another thread on this topic but Mozilla Support requires you to start a new thread to be able to register)

  Firefox starts: show my windows and tabs from last time.

  No setting change - either in the preferences or all: config - changes the behavior of Firefox to restore the tabs at previous sessions.

  Options I've seen suggested:

  • Create a new profile to test
  • To uninstall and reinstall Firefox
  • Delete the files in your profile sessionstore (?) folder

  Yes.

  I have reset default Firefox and which seems to have authorized.

• Firefox Sync does not appear in my preferences

  I want to transfer my favorites to a new computer. Firefox Sync does not appear in my preferences

  Hello tombeaulieu, firefox sync has been added in a future release and is not available for firefox 3.6. Please, your bookmarks manually export & import on your new computer as described here: Firefox bookmarks export to a HTML file for backup or transfer bookmarks

• New Firefox Sync does not work correctly. Bookmark cannot be deleted. Tabs are not displayed on the desktop.

  I have two problems with the synchronization again. The first problem is that none of my bookmarks or tabs of my office are appearing on my Android phone or work phone reverse on the desktop.
  The second problem is I'm trying to synchronize my favorites of the beta version of Android FF for the non - Beta Android FF that worked well until I corrected to remove several bookmarks I have anymore. I want to remove them, but I can remove them only on the beta version and then when I go to the regular version none of the changes have been synchronized. If I try to remove them from the normal version nothing happens at all.

  One thing to check is the android device and new update of office are on the same synchronization. To check on Android is this (not recommended) Firefox Sync account

  The other thing to check is if the tabs and bookmarks synchronization options are on for both devices in the page manage account.

  Is this the case?

• After an automatic update of Windows and stop, Firefox does not remember my tabs open at startup. Better Privacy does interfere with Crash Recovery somehow?

  Better Privacy does interfere with Crash Recovery somehow? My computer is automatically installed a Windows Update at 03:00 and switch off. When I started out, I had to restart Firefox. Firefox came without any of the tabs that were open when the PC went to bed the previous night. I spent an hour looking for what happened to my tabs, without success.

  This has happened

  Just once or twice

  == Automatic update of Windows shut down my computer in the middle of the night.

  Hello.

  It is possible that it was by force the windows closed so your firefox which makes you forget... Have you tried to crash your Firefox to see if the session is not restored?

  To plant your Firefox, simply there open, press CTRL + SHIFT + ESC and then, on the process tab in the window that appears, complete the process firefox.exe. That will force Firefox to close at this moment. Do start again. If it works, ok, so it may have been a case isolate. My recommendation is to configure your windows does not install updates without your intervention. Choose something like 'ask me what to do' or something like that.

• yesterday, October 5, 2015, I installed the latest version of firefox which does not allow me to open a new tab as my home page - how can I fix?

  In previous versions of firefox, I could use about: config to make the new tab opened as my home page. the latest version of firefox doesn't seem to allow this. I find it very frustrating that all the search engines seem to want to dictate what I see when I Browse. I wish to install the new version of firefox

  In Firefox pref browser.newtab.url 41 disappeared. This pref has been hijacked by malware so frequently while Mozilla has decided to remove this pref to eliminate this kind of diversion.
  You will need an extension like this one to restore.
  https://addons.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/addon/new-tab-override/

  Or to have your home page as the new tab page, try this extension.
  https://addons.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage/

  If you're using Classic theme restaurant, go to the options of CTR > general UI (2) and set your preference for the new tab URL there.

  For Super Start , you can use the topic: superstart page.

• Why Firefox Sync does not work on my home network, but at work?

  Firefox Sync on my laptop does not work when my laptop is connected to my home network, but for example if I'm at my desk.

  The internet connection in my house is fine, I can surf the web with this same Firefox on IPv4 and IPv6, DNS etc. also works. Connection to accounts.firefox.com works also, as Firefox for the sync account. Only the synchronization process runs aground. On my desktop at home, I have exactly the same problems. When I open https://sync-209-us-west-2.sync.services.mozilla.com/ in a browser tab, I see a confirmation message that synchronization runs on this server, so apparently the network path between my computer and this server is free.

  After investigation with Wireshark, I see the TLS negotiation successfully, then packages the client was able to respond and after some time, the server closes the connection (encrypted alert). Apparently, no content is transferred between the client and the server. I have attached a screenshot of how Wireshark sees the conversation between the server and the client (sending pictures here did not work so I put on the web: http://ibin.co/1zXABHKdj5mA).

  To exclude a possible configuration problem or bad module, I created a clean Firefox profile and logged into my account in Firefox, but this shows exactly the same problems.

  Fun fact: Firefox on my Android phone will sync on my home network.

  Below, I will link two logs, a successful synchronization (corporate network) and a synchronization failed (home network):
  Sync @ Office: http://pastebin.com/rZmfrbdL
  Sync @ home: http://pastebin.com/a3KUCevJ

  The problem seems to be with your ISP - you can refer to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1118958 and they may be able to find a workaround by changing your diet or to help you configure a different MTU for the network.

  I hope this helps.

• Connection to Firefox Sync does not work due to "SecurityError: the operation is not secure.

  Hello everyone,

  I wanted to update my Firefox Sync account from the old to the new version. Unfortunately, the login page does not load on my laptop. On my Android devices, everything works fine, so I could already put in place the new account from there, I just can not connect to my new account sync on my laptop. I use Firefox on Windows 8.1 Pro 64 bit 33.1.

  The subject: represents the loading of the landing page as usual, but by clicking on the button connect does not load the login form, just blank white box. I asked my dear friend Google who gave me some answers (seems to be a common problem...), but none of them helped me.

  The debug console displays the error "SecurityError: the operation is not secure" directly after loading on: accounts? action = signin. Opening of https://accounts.firefox.com/signin and https://accounts.firefox.com/signup also results in the same error and an empty box white. https://accounts.Firefox.com/legal/privacy works fine as usual.

  I have not found a solution to work around this SecurityError so far.

  I found another answer which finally solved my problem! Apparently the subject: in the page accounts raise this error because I configured Firefox always ask before accepting a cookie. https://github.com/Mozilla/FXa-content-server/issues/1857

  Even when weird things, but now I have to work around him.

• Firefox Sync is not synchronize all parameters

  Simply set the sync firefox until firefox sync between my Win7 laptop and Tablet Win8, most of the firefox settings * seem to sync and all extensions, but none of the settings related to extensions is present on the win8 tablet.

  Is that how it should be? Reconfigure each installed extension (and install)?

  • ) Not my PIN sites however the integrated the new tab - or firefox menu and toolbar page.

  You can copy related prefs lines that belong to an extension of the file prefs.js on a single computer in the file prefs.js on the other computer.
  You must do this when Firefox is closed.

  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)

• Install Firefox sync does not not on fresh Ubuntu

  Fresh installation of Ubuntu 64-bit 13.10 with a new installation of Firefox 25. The installation of Firefox Sync program worked flawlessly, except that it does not work. I not encounter errors, and when I said to synchronize the process seems to complete very well. However, I never get my Sync data. Sync works perfectly on my other two boxes of Windows and my three Android devices, and they seem to test very well. Curiously (and I don't care about it here, just mention) I'm having the same problem with a fresh install of Chrome as well. Any suggestions?

  Please do not take into account. Got, it works. No idea how.

• Firefox Sync does not work for Tablet Android Nexus 10.

  Firefox Sync works for 2 PCs, but does not work for an Android tablet. It is said, that the tablet was connected successfully, I checked the bookmarks and history options to be synchronized and or bookmarks, or history of the browser has not been updated on my tablet.
  No errors. Anything not came to the Android device.
  I tried with 2 different synchronization profiles - same story for the second profile.

  Please note that we are currently living with Sync server issues. Our technicians are working around the clock to the question of setting and ensure that it works at its best. The current option is to try to keep synchronized and if you are able to synchronize properly, we recommend to not not to sync more than once every 2 hours.

  Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience.

• It seems that my Firefox Sync does not accept my login.

  I created a Firefox Sync account, then when I try to open a session for synchronization via: https://account.services.mozilla.com/ it tells me that my user name or password are incorrect. I want to synchronize my desktop with my phone and I can't locate any kind assistance on this topic. I accepted and checked the e-mail address and all.

  29,0 Firefox (currently beta) and later use the new synchronization version using a Mozilla account and use just the name and the password and no longer use a sync (recovery) separated key (the key of synchronization is derived automatically the password).
  As this version is completely different from the version previously, you must use Firefox 29,0 and subsequently all connected devices, so you must install Firefox 29,0 on other devices as well.

  You can enter the name and password of the account Mozilla on other devices with a Firefox 29,0 or later to add additional devices.

• Firefox Sync does not recognize my version of Firefox, will not be installed

  Whenever I try to install Firefox Sync, it tells me "You are currently using Firefox 3.0.13," will not be installed and suggested that I update. However, I use Firefox 3.6.10, so I don't know how to solve this problem. (Yes I tried to download and install the upgrade... it is always the result.) Any ideas?

  Your UserAgent is probably messed up by something you have installed.
