• I can't find the tab of Firefox which takes me to edit and print et al, except that I have a little bitty screen.

  I just got a new computer and have changed for windows 8, and the guy put in place with internet explore when I was accustomed to using firefox. My son put on firefox, but I can't find the tab firefox with access to edit, print, print preview, etc., except when I got the box of firefox on three-quarters of the screen, which is too small. How to fill the screen and still give me the small box so I can print? Please do not reply to an avalanche of gibberish, because the understanding of my computer is negligible.

  Hi Senyax, how are enlarge you Firefox when you want more? They will give you different results:

  (1) maximize the window (the middle between _ and X button)

  You should still be able to see the top bar of the window with the orange Firefox button. If you don't see this, one of your Firefox settings files could be damaged.

  (2) full screen (F11 key or the Firefox button orange > fullscreen)

  By default, nothing else that the site displays full-screen mode. Although you can have the tab bar and toolbar display (drag your mouse to the top of the screen and right click on an empty area of the tab bar, then uncheck "Hide toolbar"), you cannot use the orange Firefox menu button in this mode.

• What happened to save the tabs when Firefox is closed?

  In Firefox v3.6* every time you closed the browser asked you if you want to save your tabs open so that they reopened the next time you start Firefox. Even when the update to the extensions/add-ons and by having to restart Firefox it would happen. It has been very useful but in v4.0. * This feature seems to no longer exist.

  Firefox stores now always the old session, and you can access it by going to the history menu and selecting "restore previous Session."

  If you want Firefox to display the message to save the session, it can be turned on again by changing some preferences.

  1. Type of topic: config in the address bar and press on enter
  2. Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
  3. Find browser.tabs.warnOnClosepreference, if its value is set to false, double-click on it to change its value to true
  4. Repeat this for 3 preferences browser.warnOnQuit, the browser.warnOnRestart and the browser.showQuitWarning

  If you always open the last set of tabs, another approach is the following:

  1. Click on the orange button Firefox, then select options to open the options window
  2. Go to the general Panel
  3. Change the setting "When Firefox starts" to "show my windows and tabs from last time '.

• I can't save the tabs when Firefox is closed

  I tried the solution in this link
  Firefox does not ask to save tabs, windows and exit
  but it did not work

  One of the changes in Firefox 4: by default Firefox 4 does not display the warning "Save tabs and exit" then to the closure of several tabs, but it can be turned on again by changing some preferences.

  • Record of the tabs was not removed from Firefox 4, but it works a little differently.
    • By default, Firefox 4 will not ask to save tabs, but instead it will always save your tabs in the output. You can restore the next time by selecting "Restore previous Session" in the history menu, or by pressing the button restore Firefox's default homepage.
    • Note: This was a decision by the developers. On this forum, we are all volunteers without compensation here to help other users. Develop them and employees of Mozilla/Firefox rarely, if ever visit here.

  To display the message "save tabs and exit" when closing multiple tabs, you can do the following:

  1. Type of topic: config in the URL/address bar and press the Enter key
  2. Accept the warning message (promise to be careful)
  3. Open the preferences/list page
  4. Filter = browser.tabs.warnOnClose
  5. If its value is set to false, double-click top (in the lower panel) to toggle its value to true
  6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for the 3 following preferences also:
     • browser.warnOnQuit
     • browser.warnOnRestart
     • browser.showQuitWarning
       • Note: last pref is new in Firefox 4 b 12, may need to add (boolean)

• The tabs in Firefox 4 are hiding my browser themes. Can they be placed UNDER the address bar as it was in Firefox 3?

  Firefox 4 has placed the tabs above the address bar, rather than below (as if it was in previous versions) and the legs are block and hide my browser themes. Is it possible to move the tabs UNDER the address bar? I love being able to customize my browser with a variety of topics, but if I can't see them, then, the purpose of Personas is defeated. I think also, navigate between tabs is much easier to be at the top of the browser window. The address bar must be the head, not the tabs.

  Right-click on a toolbar, and then click the entry "Tabs" at the top to deselect the it.

• two clicks to close the tab in Firefox 28.0

  just upgraded to Firefox 28.0. now, it takes two clicks, and rather than one alone, to close a tab.

  It is not new, it's a bug.
