Home page will not save

I tried everything to get Firefox (v. 26 I think, he has recently updated) to save my home page. Nothing works. I tried reset, change config, addition of profile, the antivirus, remove cookie scans, reinstall, everything from simple fixes to the most complicated, all that are in the pages of support for this issue. And yet, I can't save my home page. I used firefox as long as I remember and have never had this happen.

The only thing I notice is that there is no user.js file in my config. There is one pref.js file but I don't know what to do with that or if it would help. I activate a new profile well and that did nothing.

Hi Tigerbite, it was genius to do this research. I think that the ascsurfingprotection.js might be the problem. Advanced SystemCare is a program that can clear your changes because it is to protect yourself against unwanted changes. You may have (temporarily or permanently) shut down its surf protection device to make the change.

Note: I do not recommend to modify these files manually.

  • installed firefox last, won ' t hold home page, will not be updated from kaspersky

    I updated Firefox to worm. 40.0 and now my laptop, which is a HP with Windows 7, has all sorts of problems. I use Yahoo as my homepage, and it will not hold my homepage. He continues to go to a page of Yahoo search instead of yahoo page I use. I continue to restore, but it won't stay. I restarted Firefox, I restarted my computer and nothing works. Also Kaspersky will not update. I never had any of these problems before the update to Firefox. And the Pocket will not work on any of my three computers. Two desktop computers and laptops are all HP PC running Windows 7. I have connected to the pocket with [email protected] and have tried all the things you me in previous emails and still contributes nothing. Also have minor changes to some other software I have, but I can work around these. All computers have been checked against viruses and malware and are clean. What grit? [email protected]

    PS: I tried to connect to my other accounts of Firefox and have reset password several times but always rejects password and I cannot connect. It is a completely new account, my 3rd email account. If it stops working I can't communicate with you, so how do you?

    How did you check for malware? It certainly seems malware-ish. Here's my method to track down and clean the bad Add - ons and other hijackers. I know it seems long, but it's not so bad.

    (1) open the Control Panel, uninstall a program. After the loading of the list, click on the column heading "installed on" to group infections, I mean additions by date. This can help the surface elements undisclosed bundle which snuck out with some software, you have agreed to install. Beware of everything that you don't recognize / remember, since malware often uses sounding names important or innocent to discourage you remove. Out as much garbage as possible here.

    (2) open Firefox page modules using either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons
    • in the Windows "Run" dialog box, type or paste
      firefox.exe "about:addons"

    In the left column, click on Plugins. Set essential and unrecognized plugins 'never enable '.

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, in case of doubt, disable (or delete, if possible) not recognized and unwanted extensions. Remember that all extensions are optional, none come with Firefox.

    Often, a link will appear above at least an extension disabled to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links in the last step.

    Any improvement?

    (3) check an optional parameters file called user.js in your profile (personal settings folder) folder. Firefox uses the settings in this file at startup to override your preferences since the previous session. Unless you have created this file, it may contains settings of an add-on or external software. You can check and delete the file by following the steps in this article: How to fix preferences that will not save.

    If you find a file named user but not user.js, Windows can hide the extensions of file on your part. To work with files as accurately as possible, I suggest showing all file extensions. This Microsoft support article has the steps: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/wi.../show-hide-file-name-extensions.

    (4) you can search the rest of problems with scanning/cleaning tools listed in our technical support article: Troubleshooting Firefox problems caused by malware. These scanners on request are free and take a long time to run. If they end quickly, especially if they require the payment you have a serious infection. I suggest the specialty forums listed in the article in this case.

  • home page will not be displayed

    I downloaded firefox 12 now, it will not be displayed when I try to open that a page with lots of info but no home page

    One possible cause is security software (firewall, antivirus) that prevents or limits Firefox or plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.

    Delete all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container in the permissions list in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission to get full unlimited access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.

    System: Pages 5.6.1 El Capitan 10.11.4 & iMac 21.5 mid-2011

    I can't save a file without a title with the same error message - I'm moving this to "Rename" file and then saving it, that seems to work. But, I can't export to a Word of any file doc - in fact, cannot export PDFS or anything like that - get the same error

    The rest of us who have no problem making an initial backup and name the document before starting to write the content. This initial backup is the only way that Pages will start his automatic backup and the ability to come back from past editing sessions. If there was a breakdown of current, OS X or crash of Pages before saving it in the first place, you'd be furious that time lost having to rewrite your document from scratch. There is no backup of it.

  • Police that says "HOME" (for the Home Page) will not match rest of fonts on the site

    Not sure what I did, but now on one of my web pages, where all other fonts are Verdana, the word, the home page, is Times Roman now. No matter what I do, I can't change the font type to match the rest of the site. ideas?

    This is what he said in the code, but then, it's the same message that I have on all other pages, except that they have the correct font. The page that I have a problem with does not work.

    < p align = "center" > < a href = "index.htm" > < strong > home < / strong > < /a > ' "

    Suzette, you must remove this line in the head section / styles section of your page:

    The browser does not know the font whose name is a facebook address, so it takes the standard Times New Roman font.

    Delete the line and everything will be fine.

  • Why my page will not save as a template?

    I am trying to save a page as a nested model (the look will be different from the original model).  I created a page from the original model, added my divs and saved as a template.  but when I created another page of him locked areas are not locked, only from the original model.  Any suggestion would be appreciated

    Patrick

    I want to just make sure that you deploy these files correctly.  Here's how a child of a nested template page:

    1. Create an HTML page and use FILE | Save as a template.
    2. Add editable regions to this template file you just saved and save again with FILE | Record.
    3. A child from this model mate with FILE | New model...
    4. Save this page to the child as a model nested with FILE | Save as template
    5. Add regions editable to the left of the boxes since the 1st generation model and re-record with FILE | Record.
    6. A child of this 2nd generation model mate with FILE | New from template

    You have now the child of the last model and the granddaughter of the first model.  In this file, you will be able to change the editable regions you inserted in step 5 or who have been inserted for you to step 5 and all the editable regions UNMODIFIED left from the model of grandparent.  As I said, models nested are not for the faint hearted...

    Here is an example of a 1st and 2nd generation model block and block matching in a child page 3rd generation (that is, the child of a generation model 2).

    1st model generation


    EditRegion3

    2nd generation model * (editable area inserted inside the EditRegion3)


    Change R egion3

    3rd child generation


    Change R egion3

    Notice that in the 3rd child of the generation, the ONLY thing you can change the 'R' in the word "EditRegion3".

    Now to your example. If you do not want the left and right columns editable in the 3rd child of generation, then in the 2nd generation model, you would insert an editable around "wealthMidCol" region, which would then be the only editable thing in the begotten child page.

  • New Firefox, will not save the homepage and will open and display all add-ons every time!

    Okay - years old now, I used Firefox ONLY - he had the best extensions and modules from any other browser out there. Add to that, it is safe and very fast. This is my default browser.

    This week I logged on my DeviantArt site and odd ads began to appear in the lower corners left and right of the browser, unlike what I'd never seen before. Add to that, they were very inappropriate. So I guess something was wrong and went through three, as in 3, programs to find out if I got "bugs" the origin of the problems. And of course, there was a kind of nasty bug in Firefox, causing all sorts of questions.

    So, following the suggestions to fix, as well as the suggestions on here, I uninstalled Firefox (21) and then reinstalled the new version, 23. At first, I thought, ' Wow, this is really very fast! When I opened Firefox it does not go to my home page, he went to the Firefox start page, as well as the opening of the tabs for EACH add-on and extension!

    Yes, open tools, Options and reset the home page of my homepage, https://www.google.com

    Simple and something I've done before. I'm a geek and have worked on my own additions. Set up my home page, has been working in Firefox and went to youtube to download a video it would not! So went to DLhelper, read their comments, changed one of the strings and voila! No problems!

    So I thought it was fixed and I was happy. It was last night. This morning, I start the computer and the first thing we do is to open Firefox. And what happens? Oh, Yes, that's right, NOTHING THAT I wanted TO! It's back to the start page of Firefox, and it opens tabs for EACH SINGLE module!

    Holy carp, tired now. So I research of 8 this morning until about an hour ago, so a little more than 5 hours, that I keep trying to fix it based on instructions of Firefox. Go to topic: config, work on channels, change the info from the home page, etc. Save it. Return to tools, Options, and there is my home page. Close Firefox and open and what the heck? Once again, back to where it was, opening, as if I just downloaded this browser. Now, I spent literally HOURS trying to solve this problem and I am so frustrated that I'm almost ready to uninstall it! My one complaint is that I've looked everywhere to try to find this same problem and it does not. Is true, I am the only one having this weird problem?

    You can reset firefox?

  • Settings of the mouse from Logitech G5 will not save.

    I have Win 7 Prof X 64. I worked with Logitech support now for almost 3 months on why my setting of the G5 mouse will not save after a reboot. They had load me 5 different versions of the set point and to make all systems that they thought the change. They even sent me a new mouse G500, which has the same problem. After a reboot, I have to open the set point and close it, make no changes, and all my settings to start working. Set point is in my Start menu & KHALMNPR file is set to no load.

    I have loaded the same software on my laptop, Win 7 Home Premium, and it works fine. It tells me that there must be a setting in Windows 7. Anyone have any ideas? Thank you

    Hello

    You are able to save the setting for another application or a program?
    Step 1: Try changing the setting in safe mode, and then restart your computer in safe mode again to check if the setting is saved.
    If the settings are saved in safe mode, then try to perform the clean boot.
    Step 2: You can try to create a new user account and check if the problem persists there.
     
    If it works in a new user account, then you will need to fix the corrupted user profile. You can visit this link for the steps:
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/fix-a-corrupted-user-profile
     
    Step 3: You can also check if the problem persists on the other computer and send back the same.
