New Yahoo homepage is horrible!

Having an email account with them for years, I plan to remove althgether. Today, I noticed that yahoo has changed its homepage, leaving too much is the user to redesign with too much of their own personal information. In some places, the words on the page overlap between them. It's too much trouble to search through their groups to find one to post a question. Since I use Firefox to access Yahoo, I thought that the moderators or users would know a solution if there is one since I'm inclined to quit using Yahoo, if it cannot provide a presentable home page, which was my default in Firefox.

  • Yahoo homepage is loading is more correctly

    Since the update of Firefox, the yahoo homepage will load is more correctly. It became a single column of icons, with some curiously to the format/overlap of the interleaved text. Only occurs with Firefox and only occurs on the yahoo homepage. all subpages (groups, e-mail, etc.) work fine.

    Hello

    Please try Ctrl + F5 refresh of the page. This allows to bring the content of the page again. If the problem persists please check if this happens in a new profile. If it's good, you can later copy the necessary personal data of the old profile. Firefox stores your personal data and settings to another separate location of the files/folder. A new profile would default Firefox settings (Tools (Alt + T) > Options, and topic: config ) and usually also would be vacuum of Extensions and themes (appearance) in tools > Add-ons) and their parameters. In addition, a new profile would have no previous website stored data/settings etc, (Tools > clear recent history).

  • set the new tab to open AGAIN homeVersion 43.0.1 breaks new tab homepage

    I don't know why the development team is so God awful ready on forcing me to use this terrible miniature of the previous pages as the new screen of the tab, but it SUCKS. I use FF because I don't want to be forced to use my browser as I want it to work. Correct this flaw and I would like to give the new tab homepage. 43.0.1 broke the new tab override add on which historically corrected this weakness / FF stock.

    Can I assume that your real problem is that the extension new tab replace does not work in Firefox 43?
    based on your similar thread in September - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1084993#answer-784907

    The developer of this add-on is aware that it is broken - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/new-tab-override/reviews/769315/ - and says he'll fix it.

    "The nature of the lack of the new tab should be without a doubt, opening to what the user has defined for its home page".

    You are entitled to your opinion on that, but Mozilla feels differently about what the default should be for the new tab.

    My opinion [that does not count be] is that it would be ridiculous to have all of the users 'Homepage' to be the default value for the page tab. How would this work when a user like me has two home pages? Two new tabs open all the time? Or complicate the issue and only open the first home page for the new tab instead?

  • 24 of Firefox with vista to date fails to display icons on the new Yahoo Mail and other web sites — especially icons such as facebook, twitter WHY?

    Web sites like murraystivoli.com that display the facebook and twitter icons and in particular the new Yahoo Mail interface fail to display the icons. I see only a small rectangle. On Yahoo Mail, there are a few inside but instead it should be the display arrows, images of envelopes or as medium icons or 'send '. The new interface is useless without correct icon translation - can not see the arrows for 'reply' 'reply to all '. It works on Internet Explore on Vista; It works on Firefox on Windows XP (it's the way back level) then why do we see this problem with Vista and Firefox update (we 24.0 but saw problems on websites that I don't care that much about other levels of Firefox also.)

    Help, please!

    Same problem here... I have no icons or tick boxes at all in Yahoo mail and it affects a good few other sites too, just small square boxes with numbers inside. It's really annoying!

    Here's what it looks like (you may need to zoom in a bit)...

  • cannot enter text in the new yahoo mail in firefox only

    I can't compose a new message in Yahoo in Firefox. I can install a new mail in Yahoo with Internet Explorer. I can't enter text in a field in a new yahoo email. When I try to respond to mail in my Inbox, I get a message that says: "Yahoo! Mail found the original e-mail, but met with display problems." Please try again later. "Then, I can't close the tabs with the new email malffunctioning or the defective response email to the message from the Inbox.

  • Firefox becomes very slow with the all new Yahoo Mail

    Problems with the all-new Yahoo! Mail version: everything worked very well, but since the two latest updates of Firefox I started to notice that Yahoo was consuming a lot of CPU (it varies from 35% to 40% and is on the top list of programs CPU consumption) and the browsing experience is not so pleasant - slow. If I quit Firefox and reopen it, becomes faster, but after about 30 min slow / high CPU consumption again. Then I had to go back to the classic version of Yahoo Mail and everything works fine and consumed less CPU. Did I live it? Is it a question of Yahoo Mail? Is there a solution? (Macbook Pro early 2011 / Mac OS X 10.7.4 / Firefox 12.0) Thank you!

    Try to start Firefox in safe mode. This mode disables all extensions, customizations, hardware acceleration, etc., temporarily for the diagnosis and troubleshooting. If Firefox works fine in Safe Mode, then it is probably a problem with the add-on. Restart Firefox in normal mode, and then type "subject: addons" (without the quotes) in the address bar. Disable your extensions, restart Firefox between each one, until you find the troublemaker.

  • Why Firefox keep changing my perefence for Google as an eingine search for tabs and the Yahoo homepage?

    I am a user of Firefox 40.0.03. I put Google as a homepage of my start page and tabs. Lately, Firefox has started taking the freedom to change my preferences from Google to Yahoo preferences. In the last two days, I changed the setting from Yahoo to Google at least 10 times. But whenever I have shut down my system, Yahoo goes Google. I checked my system for any mischievous adware and Add-ons, but there are not.
    I don't want to use Yahoo. Is it a policy of Firefox to push Yahoo down our throats?

    https://support.Mozilla.org/en-us/KB/how-to-fix-preferences-wont-save

    Note: Some software, like Advanced SystemCare with surf Protection, can protect the files in the folder of Firefox profile against the changes. If you have this software, then check the settings or uninstall this software.

  • My Yahoo homepage hijacking

    I searched all night, passing through the old posts, and I can't seem to find how to stop Yahoo as my default browser. I changed the settings in the subject: config, I hit the perf.js. I removed the other search engines from the pool of search engine in the browser's settings section. I am at a loss, and it's driving me crazy. I'm on version 40, on Windows 10.

    Let's separate some different potential problems:

    • You want to change your default address bar search engine, search bar, built-in home bar bar page tab and click on search. This is defined in the Options:

      "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Options > search, top

      Firefox will allow you to change this setting and it works when you're looking for?
    • You want to change your home page, the page that appears if you click the home button or start a new window using Ctrl + n. This is defined in the Options:

      "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Options > general

      Firefox ignores your choice here?
    • Another page loads at startup, other than your designated home page. This can be caused by a bad add-on or a hijacked desktop shortcut. (To check the shortcut, do a right click, then properties. On the shortcut tab, check the target, it should have all the addresses at the end, just "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe")

    To investigate a bad add-on, I suggest:

    (1) open the Control Panel, uninstall a program. After the loading of the list, click on the column heading "installed on" to group infections, I mean additions by date. This can help the undisclosed items bundle smoker who snuck out with some software, you have agreed to install. Beware of everything that you don't recognize / remember, since malware often uses sounding names important or innocent to discourage you remove. Out as much garbage as possible here.

    (2) open Firefox page modules using either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons
    • in the Windows "Run" dialog box, type or paste
      firefox.exe "about:addons"

    In the left column, click on Plugins. Set essential and unrecognized plugins 'never enable '.

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, in case of doubt, disable (or delete, if possible) not recognized and unwanted extensions. Do not forget that all extensions are optional, none come with Firefox, and you can learn more about them by checking their reviews on the site of the Add - ons.

    Often, a link will appear above at least an extension disabled to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links in the last step.

    Any improvement?

    (3) you can search the rest of problems with scanning/cleaning tools listed in our technical support article: Troubleshooting Firefox problems caused by malware. These scanners on request are free and take a long time to run. If they end quickly, especially if they require the payment you have a serious infection. I suggest the specialty forums listed in the article in this case.

    Success?

    (4), check your connection here:

    "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Options > advanced

    Click the mini network, then on the button "settings". The default value of 'Use system proxy settings' should piggyback on your LAN-Windows/IE setting, or 'No proxy', you can try to see if that helps.

  • How can I get rid of the Yahoo homepage? Changing the home page does not work.

    A week or two before Yahoo started coming as my home page. No matter how many times I change back to Bing, whenever I have rise of Firefox, there is Yahoo as homepage. Does not he back on Bing and clicking ok. I'm a little frustrated by that. How can I get rid of Yahoo to come as my home page when I have asked yet for her?

    Thank you for your time and your consideration.

    Sincerely,
    cbrsarah

    Change the home page when you check only in "Options > general > Startup" or is it a problem with the page that opens when you launch Firefox?
    For the latter, you can check the field target in the Firefox desktop shortcut.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.

    • Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe

    If you do not keep the changes after a reboot or have problems with preferences, see:

    Make a check of malware with several malware scanning of programs on the Windows computer.
    Please scan with all programs, because each program detects a different malicious program.
    All of these programs have free versions.

    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before scanning.

    Alternatively, you can write a check for an infection rootkit TDSSKiller.
