    Looks like you contracted a bad add-on or two. Here is my procedure suggested for tracking down and cleaning of the injectors to ad, the unwanted speed dials and other bad modules. Sorry for the length - it is not as bad as it sounds:

    (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 undisclosed items bundle smoker who snuck out with some software, you have agreed to install. 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 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.

    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) 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.

  • All of a sudden when I open Firefox it starts playing a video on youtube

    Previously, when I opened Firefox I had the normal home page. Now I have the normal home page but I can hear a youtube video starts playing in the background, and when I click on the tab I see that a movie began to play automatically. The movies are related to a topic, earlier I searched on Youtube, but it is not always the same, so, probably, I clicked on something I should not have done. I followed the suggestions of the internet on the home page reset and they did not work. Basically, I can now hear the sound from any video / movie to youtube I chose to play because of the noise from the other, unwanted, one in the background.

  • How to change the video resolution (width) when editing?

    Photoshop CC

    I started a video project, selected a video format and broke into publishing. After work for an hour, I realize I lost the left and right edges. It seems that I have chosen a narrower format that I should have.

    How can I change resolution of 1920 x 1080 mid-project? I tried to create a new project of the correct resolution but cannot copy video editing from one to the other.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you very much.

    What is the source of the video you. All video clips are from the same source and have the same format? If so, why not just open the first clip in Photoshop and then add others in video editing.   When Photoshop open the first video he has the correct size of the canvas must be set.   Photoshop has a lot of vide0 presets, but you must use the preset that matches your video. Now, I know my Canon 1 4 mov files 1080 p video. So I could use the HDTV preset but when I do all the Photoshop seems to do is open a white background canvas 1920 x 1080 and add a few lines of guide. I don't know what the guidelines are and no video time is created I need to create the video and add my video. So rather than create a new document using a preset video I open just my first music video.  You will be fine many captured video on the web.  If you just open it in Photoshop, you have the right size of canvas,

    Using Image > canvas size, then setting 1920 x 1080 can recover your cropped off the coast of the image. I actually don't video much so I can't say for sute.

  • Intrusive music now occurs when I open firefox. How can I stop it?

    I use Firefox for a long time and now use it on Windows 8 with a 64-bit processor.
    This morning, January 28, 2014, I found that when I opened Firefox, I heard music repetitive, intrusive and unknown that I couldn't stop, although he stopped himself once completed. The search for a solution using resoiurces, I failed to find one. So I uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled. However, the music still comes. I am at a loss to know how to remove it.

    You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the profile folder of Firefox that store session data.

    Rename (or delete) the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-# .js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox profile folder.

    Delete sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and groups of tabs open and closed tabs (back) to get lost and you will have to re-create them (take note or bookmarks if possible).

  • I have a lot of tabs saved to be able to open them when I open Firefox, but the first tab is always changing in my homepage, Google. Is it possible to stop this?

    I always opened, 20 + tabs on Firefox and it is together to remember. However, when I open Firefox the first tab changes that I had opened it in my homepage, Google. I can use the thing "go back" to go to the page that I had there, but going back to Google every time I restart the browser that becomes tedious.

    The only way to solve what I've found is to just stop trying to use the first tab and either Google. However, I want a real solution stop if possible.

    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.

    Hi lennynyr,

    Out of curiosity, what is the additional site? You should take a look at the Knowledge Base How to set the home pagearticle.

    There are the steps in this article to reset your preferences on the default home page. I would try everything first to clear all strangeness. If it works, you can try to set your homepage again to your personal preferences.

    If this does not work, you should look at article unsaved Preferences.

    Hope this helps!
