I want my bookmark back tabs

I used to be able to open a new tab and I got pinned bookmarks that I could easily go to. I got a popup asking me to upgrade my browser and it updated the browser and added a toolbar aol I didn't want (I managed to uninstall that successfully), but I don't have my bookmark back tabs. Now when I open a new tab I get the aol homepage and I don't want that at all.

If I understand your question, it sounds like a setting has been changed when you did the update. The instructions below should solve the problem:

  1. In the address bar, type about: config and press on return. Topic: config "This might void your warranty!" warning page may appear. Click on that I'll be careful, I promise! to keep the comments: config. page
  2. Type browser.newtab.url in the search box.
  3. Double-click the browser.newtab.url preference and change the url by about: newtab. Alternatively, you can change it to about: home for the Firefox Google home page, or type in your preferred homepage, for example google.com.
  4. Click OK and close all: config tab.

  • Tried to download the last update, no compatible system, now browser does not work even when I tried to download it again. I have bookmarks, I want to come back.

    Currently, I have a Mac, version 10.5.8. My Firefox was slow so I tried to download the latest version. When it was downloaded, a message pops up saying that this version of Firefox is not compatible with my system. Well, ' don't quite no fault "I thought and I tired to go back to my previous browser.
    But when I went to click on it, there was a large circle with a line through it. I couldn't open anything. Firefox has actually been removed from my computer.
    Now it's ok if I can't start Firefox more but I got thousands of bookmarks, compiled over the years that I really want to go back. And I have no idea how to do that.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • the old version allowed me to save all open tabs by giving it a name, i.e. on 29 April, but I can't find it in the new version. Is there something like this? If so, I really want to come back

    Tonight, for example, I have several tabs open that I would close but reopen tomorrow.

    I would like to save them all as '30 April' in my favorites... the 0ld version allowed me to do, but I can't find it in the new version.

    The only way I don't seem to lose these tabs open, I work with is making "Contol + delete", but I know that this should not be done all the time...

    There must be a better way, but if it does not exist, I would be able to come back and work with the old version?

    Some menu entries are hidden by default and only appear if you use the keyboard to open the menu.

    You can see the difference if you use Alt + F or Alt + B to open the menu 'File' and 'Favorites' and compare them to what see you if you use the mouse to open the menu after completing the bar menus visible by pressing Alt, or by pressing F10.

    • "To bookmark all tabs" (Shift + Ctrl + D) is no longer present in the menu bookmarks unless you open the bookmarks menu via the keyboard (Alt + B).

  • What happened to the bookmark all tabs/Save and Exit/open session previous feature 4.0? If this was subscribed then 4.0 is of no use to me. I'll have to go back to 3.6

    3.6 each time I closed the browser with multi tabs open that he would give me the possibility to save and exit. Then when I opened it the browser it would give me the possibility to open the previous session. I could also put bookmark all open tabs. All of these features seem to no longer be present in 4.0. If that's the case I'll be forced to uninstall and reinstall 3.6.

    The new interface is the default on Windows Vista and Windows 7 only. To get it under Windows XP, you must hide the menu bar. Do, in the view menu, select Toolbars, then click on the entrance to the "Menu bar".

    If you need to access the menus, you can press Alt or F10 to display temporarily.

  • I'm on Firefox 17.0.11, if I uninstall Firefox and reinstall Firefox 17.0.11, I always get my original addons and bookmarks back?

    I'm on Firefox 17.0.11, if I uninstall Firefox and reinstall Firefox 17.0.11, I always get my original addons and bookmarks back?

    IAM short of space on my hard drive, I prefer just to re - install Firefox 17.0.11
    on my external hard drive, I have more than 200 GB of free space.

    Do NOT remove the data personal when you uninstall your current version of Firefox, because all profile files will be deleted and you lose personal data such as bookmarks and passwords from other versions of Firefox profiles.

    Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a uninstall and (re) install, but make sure that 'delete personal data' is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

    Note that there is a version of Firefox 24.1.1 ESR if you want to stay on the ESR update channel.

  • How can I get the old function to choose which page I want to go back to? I run Firefox 8.0.1.

    In older versions of Firefox, the back button has a small chip of a button allowing you to return to a specific page, until like 10 pages back. So if you knew that you wanted to go back two or three pages, you don't have to hit the back two or three times, you simply press this button and then select the page you wanted back. Can I have this option in Firefox 8.0.1? Thank you

    Click and hold the unified back / next button, or right-click to get the rear / front in the history of this tab.

    Or install this extension to get the restored former "drop-marker" button.

  • How can I copy restored c:\documents and settings\myusername\favorites\bookmarks at tab bookmarks Firefox bookmarks?

    My computer crashed and I had to restore it to its condition of purchase (2008). I had backed up all my data on Mozy. After the restoration of 12 GB of files, the 'Favorites' folder is in C:\Documents and Settings\myusername\favorites. The old shortcuts are in the folder, but I can't have them at my bookmarks Firefox tab. How can I do this?

    You can't do it this way. Those are the Favorites of IE and Firefox can't handle these files. You need to export your IE Favorites in bookmarks.htm format so that you then import this file into Firefox.

    In Internet Explorer:

    File > Import/Export - Export to HTML file

    then in Firefox:

    Bookmarks > show all bookmarks-> import and backup - import HTML... = HTML file

  • What happened to the function "bookmark all tabs" in Firefox 4.0.1?

    I found the function "To bookmark all tabs" very useful when I went to close Firefox (for recovering the memory), but wanted to be able to remember the bookmarks. In the 4.0.1 Version that seems to have been supplanted by groups of tabs in Panorama, but this isn't the same thing. I want just a simple way to bookmark, or make a group of tabs of ALL open tabs.

    {Ctrl + Shift + D} to trigger bookmark all tabs or use the menu option bookmark all tabs... in the context menu for each tab.

  • Firefox 3.6 has been a "bookmark all tabs" in the Favorites drop-down menu. How can I "bookmark all tabs", using Firefox 4.0.1

    I've recently updated to Firefox 4.0.1 of Firefox 3.6. Firefox 3.6 had a "bookmark all tabs" in the menu bookmark in the menu dropdown. It is not a "bookmark all tabs" in the bookmarks menu of Firefox 4.0.1 on the menu drop down. This feature has been removed since Firefox 4.0.1? If I want to save 24 tabs in a window of Firefox and 14 tablets in another window of Firefox, should I save all tabs individually? How can I set options, preferences, etc. so that I can "bookmark all tabs" at the same time in a window of Firefox 4.0.1. I use Firefox 4.0.1 on a desktop computer with Windows7 professional OS with Firefox as my default browser.

    Right-click on a tab and you will be able to bookmark all tabs. Or use the Alt + B keyboard that opens old style menu. You can make changes to Firefox, as explained in this post: /questions/799856 #answer - 155765

    Add code to userChrome.css below @namespace.

    The first code makes only the entry "bookmark all tabs" visible.

    The second code makes all the hidden menu entries visible.

    @namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */
    /* Always show "Bookmark All Tabs" in Bookmarks menu */
    #menu_bookmarkAllTabs {display:-moz-box!important}
