• Everytime I open Firefox I get a message: "an attempt to change your home page has been blocked" and firefox crashes

  Everytime I open Firefox I get a message: "an attempt to change your home page has been blocked" and firefox crashes.
  I unintalled (on my MAC) and reinstalled twice. Makes no difference. Any suggestions?

  Could you try starting Firefox in Safe Mode? It is a standard diagnostic tool to disable some advanced features of Firefox and extensions. More info: questions to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode.

  Does not work if Firefox: Hold down the option key when starting Firefox.

  If Firefox is running: You can restart Firefox in Mode safe mode using either:

  • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > restart with disabled modules
  • Help menu > restart with disabled modules

  and OK reboot.

  Two scenarios: A small dialog box should appear. Click on 'Start mode safe' (not update).

  Any improvement?

  While you are in Mode without failure, you could copy a list of your extensions and paste them into an answer? The best place for this is the support information page - either:

  • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > troubleshooting information
  • (menu bar) Help > troubleshooting information
  • type or paste everything: in the address bar and press Enter

  Scroll down to the Extensions section, and then select from there until the end of the following table with the mouse and copy. Then paste into a response. It may seem a bit messy but don't worry, we're used to it.

• There seems to be a MAJOR problem (blocking/memory leak) in "subject: House", also known as the Firefox Start Page, at 26.0 Firefox on Windows!

  There seems to be a MAJOR problem (blocking/memory leak) in "subject: House", also known as start up Firefox, 26.0 Firefox Page, Windows!

  seen on:
  -Windows 7 x 64 machine with 12 GB of RAM and high performance CPU (core i7-920)
  -Comments Machine virtual WinXP SP3 (in Oracle VirtualBox) running on the same computer
  -Intel Atom D525 netbook with 4 GB of RAM, running Win7 x 64

  None of these machines are connected through Sync or something like that. The Firefox instance on the virtual machine is a fresh install / clean.

  The problem:
  -100% of cpu usage for 10 seconds, (util in XP) memory usage goes up to 1.7 GB
  -If "subject: House" is actually the Firefox Start Page, it blocks the computer at startup of Firefox for 10 seconds
  -If "subject: House" isn't the Firefox Start Page, startup is fine - BUT if I press the "home" on the toolbar button it loads "on: House" which causes the same question once again

  Sounds that there is a problem with one of the code snippets that are responsible. I've seen several reports on this issue.

  You can set the browser.aboutHomeSnippets.updateUrl pref an empty string on the subject: the page of config to disable loading (new) checked to see if that helps.
  
  You can open the topic: config page through the address bar

• background image of the page of Google in firefox is too big

  The background image of the page of Google in firefox is too much...

  In this case perhaps 70% of the time that I open Firefox on the Google page, sometimes, I open the browser at the top of Google and it appears correctly, but often (like now...), it displays the background image of the word "Google" so enormous that it cannot fit in the box provided for this purpose.

  The search bar appears to be blocked or crushed by this huge image and it is very difficult to find the cursor in there. I have a screenshot, but isn't sure how to get you again. Really hope you can help me solve this problem, it was thus for a few months now, I uninstalled all the zoom add-ons/plugins and have cleared the cache without success. I uninstalled Firefox with totally stripped of the re-installed Revo but the problem resurfaced immediately. This behavior does not seem to affect the homepage of Google and IE9/Chrome self-paced perfectly.

  Alternatively, you can clear your Google cookies in case there are some incompatible or obsolete parameters being sent to Google when you load the page.

  Save any work first (for example, Gmail, Google Docs). While displaying a page on the site:

  • Right click and select View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies".
  • ALT + t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies".

  In the dialog box that opens, you can delete all Google cookies individually.

  Then try to reload the page. Who help me?

• Why silverlight is being blocked worm 34

  I have installed Silverlight, the more recent version, installed click Play and points out the Silverlight plugin is null, then it will not work. I have to go back to an older version?

  One of the possible reasons for a plugin not installed in which they appear in the page modules are if Firefox has DO NOT scan the registry for plugins. Another is that the settings of Firefox, plugin data storage file is corrupt. Here are the steps to check these possibilities:

  Confirm that Firefox scans the registry for plugins

  Firefox detects the plugin Flash to a registry entry. Some users have scanning disabled for some reason any. Here's how check and fix this:

  (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

  (2) in the filter box, type or paste the scan and make a pause so that the list is filtered

  (3) If plugin.scan.plid.all is not set to its default value true, double-click it to activate it by default.

  If you have changed this setting, close and restart Firefox to start another analysis.

  If you visit the Add-ons page again, success?

  If Firefox is set to scan, but still not finding Silverlight Flash and the list on the page Add - ons...

  Remove the registry file for the plugin for Firefox

  Sometimes the pluginreg.dat file is damaged. You can remove it and Firefox plugins re-scan. As a side effect, the plug-ins that you have disabled the page modules probably will be reactivated, you'll need to return to this page once more.

  Open the settings folder (AKA Firefox profile) current Firefox help

  • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > troubleshooting information
  • Menu help > troubleshooting information
  • type or paste Subject: support in the address bar and press enter

  In the first table of the page, click on the "view file" button to launch a new window of Windows Explorer showing your settings files.

  Leave this window open, switch back to Firefox and output, either:

  • "3-bar" menu button > button "power".
  • File menu > exit

  Pause while Firefox finishing its cleanup, then rename pluginreg.dat to something like pluginreg.old

  Launch Firefox back up again. (If you want to restore your previous session non-private use history > restore previous Session.)

  When you return to the page modules, is Silverlight finally here?

  If all else fails, you can verify your installation by visiting the following page in Firefox:

• Adding pages and blocks of text to emulate the behavior of "Smart Text Reflow"

  I create a large number of tables in a document.  If I'm Smart Text reflow on, my script is malfunctioning.  I have the start of treatment:

  1. Add a new table

  2. If the last block of text of page overflowing and then add a new page

  With smartTextReflow off, I want to assure that the executives of new blocks of text which corresponding to the main text of the page master.  It must be able to manage to get the settings from the page of left/right text block.

  I have solved my problem.  I was overthinking things!

  Given that I have selected blocks of text on master pages as the main text blocks, when you create a new page, a block of text is automatically created. So the problem is then simply connect the block preceding text for the text block that was created when the page is added.

  TableAutomation.prototype.AddPage = function() {
       var previousTextFrame = app.activeDocument.pages[-2].textFrames[0];
       var np = app.activeDocument.pages.add();
       var textFrame = np.textFrames[0];
       previousTextFrame.nextTextFrame = textFrame;
  };
  

  The cost of the above code was about 5 hours of banging my head against the wall

• Plugin page keeps being open when Firefox starts

  I installed a Firefox plugin and the associated plugin page continues to open in a new tab, whenever I start Firefox. How can I stop this from happening?

• When I open some page of wikipedia in firefox, formula are in latex format, and there is no image of the formula. How can I fix?

  For example, I see something like this:

  M ^ \text {T} \Omega M = \Omega\,.

  and I do not see the image of the formula format. This problem will occur many pages of Wikipedia when I use Firefox to open.

  Is he missing images then check that you do not block the images of certain areas.
  You can press the ALT key, or press F10 to display the Menu bar
  Check the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab in "tools > Page Info > Permissions.

  Search for "tools > Page Info > media ' blocked images

  • Select the first link of the image, and then use the cursor key to scroll the list.
  • If an image in the list is grayed out and 'block Images of..."is checked then uncheck this box to unlock pictures of this area.

  Make sure that you do not block the (third) images, the permissions.default.image pref on the topic: config page should be 1.

  There are extensions like Adblock Plus (Firefox, Tools/menu key > Modules > Extensions) and anti-virus software that can block the images and other content.
