I am aware that this problem started with the upgrade to Firefox 31.0. If I open Firefox and look at a site Web and then close this Web site and Firefox closes its doors. The same also occurs whenever I close the last of a certain number of websites I have already opened. Previously, I could close the last site looked and the process did not close down Firefox, simply gave me my home page.
Type of topic: config in the address bar and press ENTER.
Accept the warning message.browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab = double click to toggle to false

I don't want the toolbar always there (so disable auto hide does not solve the issue). I would prefer a right-click or use a combination of keys to retrieve the toolbar. The toolbar arise at any time that the mouse is near the top of the screen is too distracting. It should be an option, users can enable or disable or card for anything other than the mouse hovering. The only solution I've seen mentioned is to go the full kiosk with something like R-kiosk, but it's really a too extreme solution to a simple problem. Is there a setting already hidden in the topic-config for this problem or is it a feature request? Thank you.
There is no built-in way to disable this feature to display the toolbars when you move the mouse to the top.
Add code to the file userChrome.css below default @namespace.
@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */ #fullscr-toggler { display:none!important; }The file userChrome.css (UI) customization and userContent.css (Web sites) are located in the folder of chrome in the Firefox profile folder.
You can use this button to go to the current Firefox profile folder:
- Help > troubleshooting information > profile directory: see file (Linux: open the directory;) Mac: View in the Finder)
- http://KB.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
- Create the folder chrome (lowercase) in the .default < xxxxxxxx > profile folder if the folder does not exist
- Use a text editor like Notepad to create a userChrome.css (new) file in the folder chrome (file name is case sensitive)
- Paste the code in the userChrome.css file in the Editor window
- Make sure that the userChrome.css file starts with the default @namespace line
- Make sure that you select "All files" and not "text files" when you save the file via "save file as" in the text editor as userChrome.css.
Otherwise, Windows can add a hidden .txt file extension and you end up with one does not not userChrome.css.txt file

How can I stop Firefox from loading automatically when I start my computer?
Some time ago I set up Windows for Outlook and Firefox open automatically when I connect. Now, I want to stop FF to open automatically. I went in the startup folder and deleted the shortcut to FF several times but he returns. I changed the name of Mozilla Firefox in Windows programs to xxMozilla Firefox directory and has no stop from loading. If necessary, I'll take off my computer completely FF, but I prefer not to do that.
Hi burtw,
This isn't really a Firefox problem per say, but more a question of Windows. You'll probably look at the research in places like:
Hope this helps!

How can I stop the last post showing when I want to send this person a new Imessage. I don't want an old conversation appears constantly when I am a Messenger contact. I have an Iphone 5s
I don't know, but let me see if I understand what you're asking. You do not want to see the thread you have with a particular contact when you go to send them another message? The only way to do this is to remove the previous message thread. If you send a message to someone that you already have a thread of conversation with, it will continue to post in this thread. There is no such thing as having multiple threads with the same person. All conversations with the same person would remain in the same thread, unless you remove the previous discussions. If you delete your previous conversation, when you go to start a new conversation, he won't have any of the other answers.

Hello Mikecici,
Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.
I understand that your photos will look blurry, whenever your iPhone is not connected to the Wi - Fi. This indicates that you probably iCloud library enabled with the option of storage optimize. If you have cellular data disabled for Photos, which would prevent photos life-size uploaded without a Wi - Fi. To learn more about iCloud photo library, please take a look at the information in the link below.
Can I use iCloud photo library to save space on my device?
iCloud photo library automatically keeps all of your photos and videos in the original version, in high resolution. Follow these steps to choose how you store your photos and videos on your device:
- On your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, tap Settings > iCloud > pictures or settings > Photos & camera, then select a storage parameter.
- On your Mac, click on Photos > Preferences > iCloud, and select a storage parameter.
If you turn on [device] Optimize storage, iCloud photo library manages automatically the size of your library on your device, you can make the most of your device storage and access photos more than ever. All of your original photos, full resolution and the videos are stored in iCloud while unit size versions are stored on your device. You can download original photos and videos over Wi - Fi or cell phone when you need it.
If you turn on download original, iCloud photo library will keep your original, full resolution photos and videos on iCloud and on your device. Download the originals is the default setting for iOS devices with 5 GB free storage plan and all Mac devices.
You need an Internet connection to access a photo original or video that is stored only in iCloud.

How can I stop Firefox opening old windows/tabs after a crash?
every time it crashes and I try to re-open the program, it opens all my old tabs and windows. often, these are the videos which all begin to play both. or worse still, it opens the page that did crash in the first place and crashes again.
How can I stop this annoying feature?
If there is no way to stop it, can you recommend a simple browser that don't try to think for you?
The value of the integer pref browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes to 0 on the subject: config page in order to get the about: sessionrestore page immediately with the first start after a collision has occurred or the Task Manager was used for the closing of Firefox.
This way, you see if the previous session is not close properly or it crashed and deselects the tabs that you do not want to reopen, but will reopen the other tabs.
