I removed the check mark to "Accept cookies from sites" in the Privacy tab, but when I restart Firefox the check mark is back! This problem started with version 3.6 and so I upgraded to version 5, but the problem remains. Any suggestions?

  • I want to launch Firefox with a blank page, BUT when I restart firefox, it loads the homepage

    I have reset start empty, but there is not.

    So just to confirm, in the general Panel of the Options page, you set

    "When Firefox starts: display a blank page.

    And when you close the Options page and open it again, your bet is still there.

    But when you close Firefox and run it again, it has changed to:

    "When Firefox starts: show my home page".

    There are a number of possible reasons for Firefox to lose your changes of parameters between session. Software that is designed to protect you against unwanted changes you blocks actually make changes sought. This includes Advanced SystemCare, and some other utility/privacy/security software with a 'navigation protection' or a 'protection home page"feature.

    This article has other possible explanations: How to fix preferences that will not save.

    If you find that Firefox remembers not change between visits on the Options page: you can have a different problem, as a generally unwanted program named SearchProtect who should be removed from the Windows Control Panel or a configuration file 'automatic' which locks your start setting. We can help you to further explore that if this seems to be the behavior.

  • In "Préférences..." 'Intimacy '... 'History' options 'Accept Cookies from Sites' have completely disappeared. What now?

    This is 20.0 Firefox desktop OS

    Hey, as explained in the support article I linked to before, this setting will not be available when you set firefox to use the custom settings for history (you set ever "remember history").

  • Cookies seem to be activated in "options/privacy / accept cookies from sites", but v23.0.1 firefox browser no is not recognized when I come back on some sites.

    Google sites tell me that cookies are not saved on my computer, and other sites that should be remembered are not. I see some cookies stored on my computer.

    When I came into the story and said, 'forget the site' and then tried again, seems to have fixed. Thanks to all the contributors to my question.

  • Since Fx32, show Cookies always reveals no. stored COOKIES. Where are they? I have 'accept cookies from visited' with a large list of exceptions of blocked sites.

    I have "Always deprived of the use of navigation" and "Accept the Cookies from Sites" with "Third Party Cookies: to visit ' but with a long list of site Exceptions, I intend to block." Since Fx32, DISPLAY COOKIES still says there is nothing to show. I understand the incognito automatically deletes history (including cookies) on Fx is closed, but after some extensive navigation, I expect to see some session cookies only from sites that is: a) are listed ALLOW/SESSION on my Exceptions list; or (b) are not exceptions listed at all. The list of exceptions has two categories: Ad Server sites I block to avoid hearing; and ALLOW the sites I visit have warn me to allow their cookies. Even after the connection to these sites (connection requires their cookie) DISPLAY COOKIES always says that there is not.

    1 I'm wrong about PRIVATE BROWSING, it does not control the placement of the cookie, which leaves to ACCEPT the COOKIES and the parameters of the Exception, but erases them cookies and another story when Fx closes?
    2. so where's my cookies I know work when I login, for example, my mail server or Amazon?
    3-do I need to install the addon from SQLite-Manager to see the cookies .sql file? It will work with Fx32 +?

    Thanks for the input, cor - el. Once I realized where is the console command line and exceeded his SPAM warning, cookie.split () / join () worked very well: a lot of output, especially warnings of javascript and HTTP requests, at least a cookie. But then I wondered:

    I pressed accidentally on [CLEAR] and console obeyed, of course. So I enter again the command (several times) but now get no reply - msg just empty console pane. Close the current tab from fx, then open a new web console, connect and I reinterpret the split () / join (). Now console only statements interprets this command error msg: > undefined (attached screenshot).

    So my question: can this js command split () / join () consider only once? I have to adjust something first? It seems the PRIVATE BROWSING feature design "drape" of all the cookies I allowed to-I assume to keep them from being seen, that's it? So can a Web page script place a cookie, and then later in the same session back or questioning? A page can simply include a document.cookie.split()/join () command in the script?

    In any case, I'm happy to have your technique and grateful. Thank you. I'll try it as a bookmark shortly.

  • I removed some of the buttons on my toolbar, but they keep reappearing when I restart Firefox.

    I have already reset Firefox to its default setting and now I'm trying to customize it again to go back the way I had it. But every time after I remove the navigation toolbar buttons they reappear when I restart Firefox. The buttons are for the addon of readability and I disabled the in the settings of the addon, but I want that they disappeared from the toolbar altogether.

    The solution above did not work for me. So I tried this instead.

    Go about: config and find the browser.uiCustomization.stateflag. In its value (a string) remove any entry that has "readability" inside (it should be three of them for the three buttons).

    Click OK and restart FF and the buttons will remain deleted.

    Good luck.

  • Firefox insists on going to my last tabs consulted when I restart it instead of my home page. I checked in tools, etc.

  • Version 5.0 on a MAC doesn't let me switch between tabs. Can I open a new tab, but when I try to go in a different tab, it shows me just the content of the tab opened most recently. Help!

    Version 5.0 on a MAC doesn't let me switch between tabs. Can I open a new tab, but when I try to go in a different tab, it shows me just the content of the tab opened most recently. Help!

    In addition, pop up blocker works for a while and then stops working. I have to close and restart Firefox to make it work again. Help!

    I had the same problem, but with Firefox 4.0. My first thought was last updated to Firefox (after of course restarting FF), but it did not help and I had the same problem.

    Among others, I had an extension installed and enabled called tile tabs 4.10 I thought could easily create this problem. I went in my Add-ons Manager and disabled, restarted Firefox and tabs worked properly again. Unfortunately, the extension of the tile tabs is my favorite Firefox Add-on and I use it almost every day to manage my web tasks. I went to the page Add on for tile tabs and saw that there was a notice that version 4.10 did not work properly on Mac OS and install version 4.9 of the extension. I saw that they had a new is not-yet-seen version 4.11 who has tackled the problem of Mac OS, installed, and everything seems to work properly.

    I have no idea why all of a sudden I had this problem as I don't had not updated Firefox or the extension of the tile tabs recently. Also, obviously this could not solve your problem, especially if you have the module installed and active. But our problem started at the same time for both of us it seems based on your post time, so its probably not a coincidence.

    But its worth a quick glance and you can check other extensions if you don't have the legs of tile that might be the cause of the problem.

  • I tried to use the app tabs, but when I open it again my browser they're gone

    I added my favorite tabs as tabs app but when I restart my browser they aren't here anymore - is this normal?

    You are welcome

    No, you don't lose the App Tabs if you remove history using clear recent history at the exit. If you clear the history otherwise, then it doesn't.

  • I installed forecastfox to toolbar addon. bar shows up as expected when I restart firefox, the forecastfox doesn't charge. Did I miss a "SAVE" button?

    Forecastfox 2.3.3
    The Bar of the Addon (restored) 3.2.1
    I had to install these because that firefox has dropped at the helm of the addon when I upgraded. These are the same versions that are on my other computer. Firefox and addons play well together.
    The bar addon installed and appears when I run firefox, I added fox planned to add on bar via the button CUSTOMIZE by dragging the icon for forecastfox until the toolbar. Then you click on CUSTOMIZATION of OUTPUT. Forecastfox is in the toolbar and is operational. However, when I restart Firefox, the toolbar begins but the forecastfox does NOT work. Help me please.

    Well, whatever. It was very good work. Play well.

  • Dear all, I can not play the flash videos from any website through firefox because it freezes, but when I run firefox as administrator, then it works fine (but Google Chrome plays all the videos normally.). I use Windows 7 & Firefox 7.0.1. Help, pleas

    Dear all,
    Firefox crashes when I try to play flash videos from any website, but when I run firefox as administrator, it works very well. (but Google Chrome, Opera & I.E9 video parts without administrator.) I use Windows 7 & Firefox 7.0.1. Help, please.

    One possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks 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 in the list of permissions 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.
