I don't want to browse the articles of wonk 100 billion. I want a living person to tell me, in plain language, how to add shortcuts to my homepage.

I want to add a simple shortcut to my home page. Your instructions say yo click on the menu, click page, add shortcuts. No 'page' option when I click on the menu. So now what? And how to do the unnecessary and embarrassing search disappear when I open a new tab. I have REPEATEDLY décliqués it and chose only Bing. Yet, it returns. I hate it. I don't want to. Please advise, in plain language, how simply to solve these problems.

Hi weejindy, these are the steps to add a shortcut to a home on Android screen and not the instructions for Windows. For Windows, see my reply in your thread earlier: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1062509

The new integrated tab of Firefox page has a search box set to your search engine by default over a number of thumbnails of pages you have visited. Is this sound like the display page when you open a new tab?

Here's how you can change your new tab page:

(1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

(2) in the search above the list box, type or paste newtab and make a pause so that the list is filtered

(3) double-click the preference browser.newtab.url and enter your favorite page:

  • (Default) page thumbnails = > subject: newtab
  • Blank tab = > subject: empty
  • Built-in Firefox homepage = > topic: welcome
  • Any other page = > full URL of the page

Press Ctrl + t to open a new tab and check that it worked. Fixed?

If the problems persist, some potential diagnoses and remedies:

If Firefox will not let you change this setting: you can have what is called SearchProtect on your system. This must be removed the control panel.

Firefox if allows you to save your changes, but he doesn't know: one of your extensions may be the substitution of her. You can consult, disable and/or remove extensions on page modules. Either:

  • CTRL + SHIFT + a
  • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

In the left column, click Extensions. Then, take a critical look on the list on the right and turn off (or remove) something unknown.

If the modification works during your session, but during the next startup is return to the unwanted page: you could have a user.js file in your personal settings Firefox (your Firefox profile folder). This article describes how to track down and delete the file: How to fix preferences that will not save.

A little luck?

  • I don't want password of microsoft for use with Windows 8. How can I do this?

    I'm perfectly happy with my existing Gmail etc calendar and do not want to import into Microsoft calendar and use it. How can I synchronize my existing accounts without creating a link to a Microsoft account. Same question arises for my existing Gmail, Facebook account calendar, Skype account. Am close to uninstall of Windows 8. Very unhappy with him.

    Just like a phone Android "requires" allows you to use an account Google, Microsoft "" requires you to use a Microsoft account.

    I put "requires" in quotes because you can bypass.  You can signin without a Microsoft account by creating a local account.  You will still need a Microsoft account if you still want to use the App store (all), but you are not obligated to use these stores (you can shop elsewhere).

  • I don' t want my icons aligned left on my desktop screen. How can I spread them I would like them?

    Is there a way to put my icons where I want, or will they always align to the left?

    Hi Kry69,

    Of course, this should be a quick. The icons are left-align because you have your point of view the value "Auto Arrange icons. You can change this by clicking with the right button on the desktop, choosing view and then if you uncheck ' reorganization auto icons. If you want even more control of the icons and do not want to auto-place themselves on the grid, I would recommend also uncheck "Align icons on the grid.

  • Need to download the version of Dreamweaver for Windows 8.1, don't want CC version

    I lost my older version of Dreamweaver MX, the death of my PC under Windows XP.  I now have Windows 8.1 and only need a simple version of DW to download for occasional use.  I don't want to use CC with its monthly service fee.  How can I download an older version of DW which is compatible yet?  I found http://macromedia-dreamweaver.xtremedownload.com/ DW 8, but do not know if it is trustworthy.  Please help!

    Adobe sells only current versions of their products.  The only other version available through Adobe's Dreamweaver CS6 which you can purchase through the following page: Creative Suite 6

    If you want an older version, then you will have to take risks with third party suppliers potentially questionable as you have already found.  It is doubtful that anyone here will recommend third party sellers.

    You mean you want the e character? These two points are called a
    umlaut. You do not add points; the e with points is another
    a simple e character. There are several ways to get this
    character, but a simple is to hold the ALT key and type 137.

    As a point of information if you are interested, the subject of a
    umlaut is to indicate that the second of the two successive vowels is
    pronounced separately. So the word 'book' is pronounced buk, but the
    Book name is pronounced BO - ock.

  • How to remove unwanted plugins (and no I don't want to read all the articles unrelated who never answer your question)?

    I want to erase the unwanted plugins in Fire Fox. A plugin has even a warning about its use does not (Java Deployment Toolkit). But every time I ask 'how to remove a plugin?', I get redirected to an article that does not answer the question. And then the cycle starts again without ever actually answer the question.

    IT IS NECESSARY TO UNINSTALL FIREFOX TO DELETE A PLUGIN?

    Hello 4646tm, I understand your frustration. Here's how to remove a plugin:
    Click the menu and then click on Add ons, which looks like a piece of a puzzle.

        Type about:plugins into the Location bar and press Enter to display the About Plugins page.
       Each entry in the About Plugins page will have "File:" and "Path:", showing the name and location of the plugin file. Use Windows Explorer to navigate to the folder shown for the plugin you want to remove.
       Rename the file to add an X in front of the filename (for instance, npswf32 becomes Xnpswf32).
    

    You said that you do not want links, but I'll give you a couple just in case you do not want to uninstall the plugins manually. These links are to pages that tell you how to run the uninstall it please do not hesitate to tell me if you think that they are not useful.

    Uninstall Adobe Flash - Windows

    Uninstall QuickTime - Windows Vista/7

    Follow the instructions:
    Download Microsoft Silverlight (instructions to uninstall also)

    I just put a couple of the most common out there, if you have a specific plugin you don't want it please tell me and I can dig to the top of the page for it, also you can do manual uninstall I gave you.

    Have a great day!
