Gmail tab open when updating to Firefox

I've updated to FF24, and then perform a reset due to slow, the other day. Since then, I have found that my GMail tab when new emails arrive (i.e. the tab opens automatically while I read another tab). It is extremely irritating and nothing I have experienced before (and I'm using Firefox from FF2!)

Is there a setting somewhere that I have to change?

We are glad to hear that your problem has been resolved.

Thank you using the Mozilla support forum.

  • If I leave tabs open when I close Firefox then shut down PC, are the tabs available to hackers?

    I did not have this problem but someone at work warned me not to leave the tabs open when I stopped because the tabs open when the browser opens again... which is what I want, but she explained that open the tabs without having to re-enter passwords, so even if the PC is off hackers can get into the tabs already protected by. It makes no sense to me, but she is adamant, saying his bank account was wiped out because she didn't close her bank tab on its browser when the computer is shut down.

    If your computer is turned off, it cannot be hacked. In addition, you can set your preferences to not save passwords if you wish. But no, if your computer is turned off are not accessible (for obvious reasons). For better security, you can use a master password in Firefox or put a password on your PC if someone turns on it back, they need to put a password. Use a master password to protect stored logins and passwords

  • Old tabs open when I start firefox

    Hello
    When I run Firefox, it opens all my tabs I had open until I closed my last session. I went through one of the help pages already telling me to go to the options-general tab-"When Firefox starts" and changed to 'home page', but I still have the same problem.

    Thank you!

    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.

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

  • Additional tab opens when I run Firefox

    Whenever I start Firefox 28.0, my page loads of welcome, followed immediately by a new tab with a number of icons of Web site - why? How can I get rid of this secondary tab?

    Hi lloyd, you have some present malicious addons. Please try these steps:

    1. Reset firefox (this will keep your bookmarks and passwords)
    2. then go to firefox > addons > extensions and where there are still extensions listed there, disable them.
    3. Finally, run a full scan of your system with security tools like the free version of malwarebytes and adwcleaner to ensure that adware is not present in other parts of your system as well.

  • Why my Firefox moves the focus to the next tab open when I open a new?

    For example, I have 3 tabs open, say "Facebook", "Gmail" and "Firefox". When I got to 'Facebook' and open a new tab, it goes to 'Gmail '. If I am to "Gmail" and I opened a new tab, it moves to "Firefox". It is boring and has not happened before.
    I just want to stay the same tab when I opened another.
    I already tried to change some parameters, but it was always the same.

  • using 30 firefox in windows 7, I get a blank when you restart, if I don't have that one tab open when I close it.

    I have my options set for firefox "open windows and tabs from last time", but whenever I don't have that one tab left open, I get a blank page. If I have several tabs, then it opens with the tab and windows.
    I am running Windows 7 Professional and Firefox 30. Thanks for any help you can offer.

    Quote: it's only when I have no tabs open I get the blank page (instead of the homepage).

    There is always at least one open tab, if it didn't is no extensions installed that hide the bar tab in this case.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.

  • 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
  • Why tabs open when broswer reopens? Worked fine in previous versions, but given that "Refresh" does not work. Never.

    Version 25.0.1 when I close the browser, all my previous tabs have disappeared when I open it again and it goes to the home page of firefox. I have my options set to reopen the previous tabs and I reset it at least 10 times and he won't stay. When I reopen it the browser, I get the firefox homepage, and option has been reset to their default value. This is NOT a function, it is a bug. One of my favorite features of firefox has been that I can have 3 or 4 tabs open, and whenever I restart, I get these exact same tabs without having to click or hunt.

    I'm not the only one having this problem, I checked with a few people I know who updated their system to 25.0.1 and they get the same thing.

    Ideas? Please?

    Hello, remember that in private life on the wall > conservation rules: is defined on don't forget history or use the custom settings for history

    also if the conservation rules: is set to use custom settings for history then make sure that the Permanent private browsing mode is not selected

    and

    If the conservation rules: is set to use custom settings for historical history clear when closing Firefox is selected, then click the settings button and make sure that the navigation history is not selected

    In addition, in the details of your system, it seems that you have a User.js file in your profile folder . The user.js file does not exist by default. If you create the file, forget it, if you do not create the file, then try to remove the User.js file, to see if the problem goes away (some programs of also create the file).

    Thank you

  • Why can't the next tab open when I select the following link?

    I use several browsers, not just Firefox. One of them automatically opens a new tab when I click on the next site that I want to transfer, that is, I don't have to click to open a new tab first. Note, it also keeps the active tab open.

    I love this feature and want in Firefox, at least as an option.

    In Firefox you can middle-click on a link with the wheel on the mouse to open the link in a new tab.
    Only links that specify a target window open in a new tab.
    All others open in the same tab.
    If it isn't on by clicking on the links on the Google results page and then you can change it in the Google search parameters (where the research open) (gear in the top right corner icon).

  • Advanced settings: Update tab displays any updates to Firefox options

    The update in the Advanced Settings tab only shows the text "update automatically:' and a checkbox for 'Search engine'." It shows all the options concerning the updates of Firefox.

    I realized that, because Firefox would not be automatic update as usual, and I was looking for a way to do it manually. I finished it doint with the apt - get command on a terminal.

    Hello, in ubuntu firefox updates are fully managed by the operating system package manager (so there is no options to update the program itself in firefox).

  • New tab opens when I open firefox.

    It's really weird, everything was fine, but now firefox opens always the 2 tabs. http://i.imgur.com/G4q5fe3.PNG
    One is the homepage and other https://userstyles.org/firstrun.
    No, it does not work... No idea why this happens all was fine... Solution would be to uninstall that add on, but I really like it because it changes the new remote tab and there is no search bar.

    I assume that you have installed the Stylish extension... But you should get only a single notification.

    I think that elegant creates / updates this preference to avoid show you this welcome page again:

    extensions.stylish.firstRun = 3

    This normally would be stored by Firefox in the file prefs.js and other settings.

    Some users are having problems with this process: the file does not normally save, or he is replaced at the next startup. This article describes the items to check to see if this is the problem: How to fix preferences that will not save.

    If you use a software utility that protects you from unwanted parameters, such as Advanced SystemCare changing, it might roll back the file prefs.js to previous settings. You can disable this feature.

  • Firefox will not be connected or open. Mac OS 10.6.8. I worked with many tabs open when Firefox no longer works. Now, it does not connect. I uninstalled and downloaded several times.

    I worked with many open tabs and firefox crashed. Now it does not connect to internet at all.

    Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problems.

    See "basic troubleshooting: a new profile:

    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "tools > Modules > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.

    If this new profile works then you can transfer files from the old profile to the new profile, but make sure not to copy corrupted files.
