I use Firefox and T bird. Firefox asks for a password at startup. If I cancel the prompt goes and Firefox works normally. Can I stop this?
I recently acquired a new PC. I installed Firefox and T bird as usual and mozill backup to transfer emails etc. from the old PC.
I use a master password in T-Bird, which works very well.
When I launch Firefox, I wonder a password. Masteer password does not work and cancel allows Firefox continue apparently normally. Efforts to define or change the master password in Firefox fail because the password is not recognized and leave the field blank, do not change the password.
How can I solve this?
Using Firefox Sync?

;-)Hello
I imagine the inconvenience that you are experiencing. I'll certainly try and help you fix the issue; However, I will need to ask you a few questions.
1. what version of IE are you using?
2 do you have of them pack installed?
3. do you have an antivirus installed on the computer?
4. do you also deal with any show related to problems with the computer?
5. are you aware of any changes made to the computer before the show?
First of all, you can run a full scan using the Microsoft Safety Scanner.
Note: there is a risk of data loss if all the files are infected and which can be removed in the cleaning process.
You can then try to launch the FIXIT of the article and see if it helps. Also go through the steps in this article as well and check it out.
If you try the manual steps, do not forget to back up the registry.

I just installed Office 2007 on my computer and downloaded some documents on the internet. When I try to open Firefox becomes crazy and opens the tabs of the browser faster that I can close them, with no sign of stopping. How can I stop what is happening and have access to the downloads? Any help much appreciated!
OK, solved. It's not Firefox, it's Windows. Somehow, it had been changed to open Word documents as browsers. I had my suspicions that it wasn't Firefox as Word documents to open in form of tabs in the browser even if Firefox is not running. The only way to open a Word doc was if it was already on the hard drive.
For someone who has a similar problem, it's how to correct:
Open my computer.
On the Tools menu, click Folder Options.
Click the File Types tab.
In the registered file types list, click the file that you are trying to open. In my case, it was the doc files. In the list this type of file has been shown by a Firefox icon, indicating that what was used to open the file.
Under the list of registered file types scroll details for each file type are displayed, with an option for "opens with:
Click Edit to the right of the present and choose the program to use in the future. Click OK and close the dialog box file types. This should solve the problem. -
I use Win 7 and just upgraded to Firefox 4. In my plugin section, when I activate a program, the word disabled immediately appears next to the program name. This happens to every program plugin I have.
So, when I use Firefox and the need for a plugin is necessary, I received a message telling me that this program is disabled even if the word activate will still appear on the plugin line. I never had this problem in one of the Firefox 3 browsers. How can I fix this problem?It could be that the plugin you are trying activate is not compatible with Firefox 4 and leaves people with reduced mobility.
If a plugin is disabled, it will have the word "enable" next to him; There is a button for you to click to activate the plugin, and not a label describing the status of plugin.
If I've got it completely wrong, please post a screenshot.

Hello BILLYBOB13, also, in the details of your system, it seems that you have a User.js file in your profile folder . The user.js file does not exist by default. If you create the file, forget it, if you do not create the file, delete the file User.js (some programs create and write in the file also).
Thank you

Whenever I open Firefox, update checking window first opens, then I get 2 tabs open. One is my home page, the other is the page that opens after you have installed a new version of Firefox. How can I get the Firefox update page to stop opening? I had the same thing happen with the add-on "Download Helper". The only way I could get him to stop was to disable it. I am running windows 7 and 9 of Firefox.
Please, try to create a new profile and check if the problem persists.

Firefox opens a new window and moves the active tab to it. How can I stop this?
Has got several tabs open. Firefox has suddenly closed the tab I'm trying (this seems to happen when I'm scrolling) and puts in a new window, move the focus to a previously inactive tab. What a swell feature! How can I get rid of him?
Firefox 3.5/6 versions have a feature called tabs.
You can detach a tab in the current window and open in a new window by dragging a tab in the browser window.
You can drag the tab to the tab bar in the original window to cancel this detachment.

I asked for a password reset, but I never got the email
I just upgraded to Windows 7 to 10 and Firefox does not recognize me (it was my default under Windows 7). I don't remember my password and have requested to reset twice, but received no email either time. I checked spam, but not luck.
Hello
I know that's probably not very helpful, but have you checked if your e-mail address is correct? What is the e-mail address used previously to tell Firefox sync?
