• How can I get rid of the second bar blue at the top of my browser window after I open a new window?

  When I open a new window or click a link that opens a new window, the new window has two blue bars along the top of the screen. The top bar is the one that I expect to see with the firefox logo, the name of the Web looking at page and the reduce, enlarge, close buttons. The second bar, below, has a tab orange on the left side who says "Firefox" with an arrow pointing downwards and then on the right side has him minimize, maximize and close buttons. These buttons are the same buttons on the blue bar to the top do. Below the second blue bar is the normal toolbar, but the upstream and downstream buttons do not work. How can I get rid of the second blue bar. He began to appear after the last update I did last week.

• Firefox crashes after I open a new tab

  Hello
  My Firefox crashes whenever I open a new tab (empty). The same phenomenon occurs in safe mode. Here are links to some of the latest crash reports:

  What could be wrong?
  Thank you.

  You might try using a new profile. It might be hard to go at least a whole day without your pets addons, bookmarks, and history... the bookmarks are fairly easy to copy.

  Create a new Firefox profile

  This is in addition and does not replace your existing settings.

  A new profile will be your plugins installed by system (for example, Flash) and extensions (e.g., security suite toolbars), but no themes, other extensions or other customizations. It should also come with fresh data bases of completely fresh settings and a cache folder.

  Out of Firefox and start in the profile using Start Manager > Search box (or run) - type or paste the following and press ENTER:

  firefox.exe -P
  

  Do not delete anything here.

  Any time want to switch profiles, exit Firefox and return to this dialog box.

  Click on the button to create a profile, assign a name like April8 and ignore the possibility of changing the location of the folder. Then launch Firefox in the new profile that you have created.

  It might take some time to determine if the new profile works better than the old. If you want to import your Favorites from your regular profile in the meantime, here's how:

  You can use the dialog library (Ctrl + Shift + b or "Show all bookmarks") to access the restore feature. The trick is to know where to find your bookmark backups in your regular profile. After clicking on file... you can paste this into the space of file name and press ENTER to drill down to your profile folders:

  %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
  

  The semi-randomly-named folder that has your last backup is generally the one that ends with "failure". Click in that one, and then in the folder bookmarkbackups . Here you can choose the most recently updated to restore file.

  Important: restoring a backup bookmark clears all bookmarks currently in your current Firefox profile and replaces it with the contents of the backup file.

  In my view, it is also reasonable to install AdBlock Plus, Restorer of classic theme, and Status4Evar, like those who, by themselves, are not likely to be at the origin of this apparently rare problem. But I wouldn't add all your extensions to the time in the new profile, and if many show extensions system installed, you can disable those you don't actually use.

• Firefox crashes when you open a new window

  Firefox normally opens and runs until I properly - close all windows. When zero windows are present, and I go back to Firefox and ask for a new window, Firefox crashes. To solve the problem I have to force quit the application, which generates an Apple crash report. Occasionally Firefox has crashed on its own and generated a Mozilla crash report, but this is rare. I tried to disable all add-ons, but that has no effect.

  As long as there is at least one Firefox window opens, the functions of the application normally. This problem only occurs when going from zero windows to stop.

  After checking each Add on, beef Taco has been identified as the cause of the problem.

• Why firefox will not open a hot link in a new tab? I selected the parameter which is supposed to do this, but Firefox insists when you open a new window every time! It's annoying as hell.

  OK... um, I'm on Mac OS10.4.11 (not sure about the last two digits, but you get the idea). I installed the latest update of Firefox maybe a week ago... my monitor crapped out yesterday, so I replaced it with a bigger I had to hang out. I have used this monitor with this machine before and had no problem with getting Firefox to open links I clicked on in a new tab. As directed by your help site, I checked "size" of the monitor and it was as always. I have even reduced the "size" of the screen, but not joy.

• I cannot install extensions, they appear with "will be installed after you restart Firefox" even after that I restarted.

  Hello

  I cannot install extensions, they appear with "will be installed after you restart Firefox" even after that I restarted.

  The 'Intermediary' folder is present and rest after a restart, but the extensions do not get installed. They show in the extensions page with the message "will be installed after you restart Firefox" and remain like that, no matter how many times I restart.

  Any idea?

  Thank you very much

  P.S. Just tried to install the add-on "convenience store" before asking the question and I got an error saying that it cannot install because it cannot change the necessary file. (I did manually instead)

  I tried to delete the files extensions.* nothing works. However, I deleted the addons.sqlite file and restarted my computer (computer not only Firefox) and that seemed to do the trick. Problem solved.

  Thank you for your help, it is appreciated.

• Is it possible to close Firefox after have closed all the windows (and also to open a new window when starting another process of Firefox)?

  Yes, Yes, I know, it's not good to keep open applications when they are not designed to be. I'm sure Firefox has some memory leaks and this does more harm than good, but...
  My computer is not the biggest out there, and to increase the ease of use of my Firefox browser, it would be nice to keep the firefox.exe process opened, even after you close all windows. I know that Firefox is not totally close if there is at least a Firefox-related window opens, but having to open popup window X seems a little extreme to achieve this effect.
  In addition, to allow another window to open, it would be cool for guests 'OH No. FIREFOX IS STILL OPEN' should be replaced by just trying to open a new window, if this feature is enabled.
  So, if it exists, is there a variable config for it, and if it does not exist, it is possible to somehow? I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty if it comes to him; I really want to get what's going on.
  I am running Windows 7 family, if it's important. (I would rather run a different OS, but this is neither the time nor the place...)

  This addon should close all tabs and open a blank tab and stay in the tray like this. or at least have an option like that. So what I have and what you want is met.

• JavaScript windows do not appear after you click a link that opens a new window

  When I try to click on a link that opens a new window (like to put an image in a Tumblr post or use an article on Neopets (don't judge me)), it will not. In the lower left corner of the page, it says "javascript:; ' or ' JavaScript: void ' or something like that.

  In this regard (I think), Firefox only opens a new window, even if I press ctrl + N or manually, click on 'New window' in the menu.

  Safe mode disables Extensions and themes (appearance) in Tools (Alt + T) installed > Add ons. Hardware acceleration is also disabled (the manual setting is in tools > Options > Advanced > general > use hardware acceleration where possible). You can try to isolate the cause of deactivation/activation of suspicious modules or try in groups.

• Firefox is already running but is not responding. The old process of Firefox must be closed to open a new window.

  Usually when you stop and restart Windows, Firefox is not running and can be started normally.

  Firefox is set to start automatically with Windows? Microsoft has a utility to investigate what is set to happen at startup: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx

  It is possible that something is triggering a process in your default browser and it is the hanging of Firefox. You can try to change your default browser to IE (IE can offer to do when you start) before the shutdown and restart Windows to see if it makes a difference.
