I'm an awkward soun effect when I go to ANY website with Firefox. The sound does not stop. I use a close new Mac Book Pro with the latest version of OSX and Firefox
This has happened
Each time Firefox opened
== I left the Air Warriors site, which I visited for years.
It's the 30th anniversary of Pac - Man today, and the Google home page is a playable game of Pac - Man around the Google logo. My boyfriend had the same problem, so I went to Google and was like Hey, it's Pac - Man! And then the siren began. It plays fine on my laptop but for some reason that the music is stuck on his computer.
All you have to do is to disable previews 'Cool' add on for firefox. Click 'Tools' at the top of the browser, go down to "Add-ons", go to the "Cool previews', click 'disable '. Restart firefox and it should be good!

I have no further details to provide except that the bottom of my Firefox page is ugly, distracting and I can't get rid of it. Firefox has a group of customer service that I can ask for help. Help.
You can uninstall your current Persona and go back to the default theme (Tools > Modules > appearance/themes).

I looked through previous questions and remove any software suspicious (it was not really, just a Bing bar). I deleted firefox and reloaded it. I bought Norton Antivirus and ran a scan - nothing. Date and time on my computer are correct. Explorer works very well. Help! I prefer firefox, but I can't access ANY Web site. I get this message every time.
I've been down all the instructions on the Firefox support forum, and nothing has worked. The question may not be the Web site certificate, because it happens to EVERY SINGLE website I try to access. Nevertheless, I have add an exception for Facebook according to the instructions. That caused a strange page, not formatted to come. Since, I have read that to make an exception is dangerous because it can cause MORE unwanted malware to infect the computer.
However, I did figure it out on my own so maybe this will help those who are facing this problem in the future: after reading the past messages from those who have experienced the same thing, I realized that, in all cases, the solution was to remove some kind of unwanted software (malware). I'm very careful NOT to download the software and I noticed that another victim of this says the same thing, so it's sneaky. I even bought new software (Norton) antivirus, performed a scan and the problem has not been found.
I went to programs "to uninstall programs," sorted by date and anything that looked suspicious that was recently removed. I had something with the word "rocket" in it. It looked like a game. There is also another program that I removed (don't remember the name of it now). Removing those does not solve the problem, so I returned through all programs on my list and removed something that said "toolbar" on this topic, even if it was reliable (I had a bing and google toolbar). That doesn't seem to work either so I sort the programs by date again and I noticed that the software "rocket" was ALWAYS THERE.
I have a click with the right on it and then click on 'uninstall' button again. It takes unusually LONG for this program uninstall AND nothing appears on the screen. The computer has just sort of is there and does nothing. I left and when I came back (about an hour later) the program had disappeared from the list.
Firefox now works. I no longer receive this message, but here's the deal: I'm not 100% sure what program was the problem. It was this software of rocket or one of the toolbars. Nevertheless, the answer always seems to be some kind of unwanted malware, so I recommend that any victim of this problem try to uninstall the suspicious programs initially. And this means that ALL suspicious programs are RECENT, regardless of if they resemble games or antivirus or another. If it is new and you do not download it, uninstall it.

I did a clean install of firefox 31 and now I can't get on any web site of Ustream, it works on IE and Chrome.
I tried all the advice I could find on the help section, but nothing works. I reinstalled everything is new so it's all of this to date, but not a single site Ustream.tv will load. I can put them on IE and chrome.The question may be because of your corrupt cookie (cookies.sqlite) file
Rename (or delete) cookies.sqlite (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete the other files of cookie present as cookies.sqlite - journal in the Firefox profile folder where the cookies.sqlite file has been corrupted.
You can also check whether DOM Storage is enabled.

When I opened a second tab in Firefox, it won't go to my homepage. Instead, it goes to a page that shows what looks like a collection of pages (or links) that I visited in the recent past or distant. I rather go to my homepage, which is much more useful for me. I tried to change that in 'Options', but without success. Please fix this.
- Type of topic: config in the address bar and press ENTER.
- Press the big button to ignore the warning.
- In the search bar, paste browser.newtab.url
- In the search results, double-click browser.newtab.url and set its value to any desired URL. If you want the Firefox home page by default, you would set the value to Subject: Home

Ho I convert my catalog of items 5 to 13 items that I just bought. I took one of the tutorials and I converted my catalog of 5 elements in a file 'pse.13db '. How can I get 13 elements to recognize this converted file? When I open elements 13 Catalog Manager and navigate to the correct location, it does not show the file. Help! Thank you
Hi bumps and Spooley,.
Would it be possible for us to have a look at the file catalog.pse13db from your machine?
If the file size is not too large, please feel free to send me by email @ [email protected]. If it is too big, I'll share with you a Dropbox folder where you can download the same.
Thank you

Page looks a lot like the DW, collapses when downloaded from the web
Please help, my web page looks a lot like Dream Weaver, tests in all good browsers. When I load any web server formatting goes south. I think that maybe it's the spry assets, but I don't know about you. You can see at www.icestoc.com/dennis. the index page seems correct, but click on 'training and instrumentation' = > 'training systems' = > "collectives," and you can see everything to the left and the menu drop-down does not work. Try 'training and instrumentation' = > 'instrumentation' = > 'data logger' also. Thank you..
You use a different stylesheet for the homepage you are to collective.html
Looking at the design of your site, I'm not sure why you would do that, but in all cases, the css for collective.html is not downloaded, or that it is downloaded in the worng folder.

Why do I get a file icon and an icon of Firefox when I save a Web site on my desktop?
Every time I have save a Web site on my desktop, I usually get two icons that appear on my desktop. One of the icons is the link to the website that the other is a full record of a bunch of files that I don't recognize. If I delete the file folder icon website icon deletes as well. I have not had this problem before until recently.
Is there a way to save the site on my desktop without the icon files showing?
It really clutters things upward.I use Windows 7.
Thank you
Hey Brad,
When you click Save Page as... under where you enter the name of the file, there is a drop-down menu 'Save as Type' - change this to us Page, HTML only
However the "folder" that you mentioned contains all the images and things off the web page. If you save only the HTML code, then images will disappear from the page when it is removed from the server.
If you want to save everything in a single file, you can try something like CutePDF
Or maybe this addon https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fire.../save-as-pdf/ (I've never used myself well.)
Let me know if that answers your question.
THX,
Curtis
