Since the restart of Firefox, I get advertisements on my Yahoo home page, that I didn't have before.
I restarted Firefox, because my Yahoo mail did not work well. He refused to let me pick up the mail. Restart fixes this problem, but now I have annoying ads on my homepage from Yahoo that I didn't have before.

I thought that the Refresh button was a Windows icon, then why has it disappeared from my page since the evolution of Firefox?
Firefox 4 and later versions use a combined Stop/Reload/Go button that is placed at the right end of the address bar.
During the process of loading page it shows as a stop button and once the charging button is replaced by a reload button.
If you type in the address bar this button would then become a button go.
Click the Reload button to duplicate the current tab in a new tab. -
Since the update of Firefox, Google appears as a string of foreign characers
Hi, since the update of Firefox, as the title suggests, any google page seems just a string of characters. I had pages like this before, but only for connections to live stream. I disabled all the plugins addons and Google-related, but the problem still persists. The solution in the other thread do with subject: config (failure of the change of an option to 'true'. The only other difference to it, is that it not connecting to http more, just https. Any help?
Hey TheDefiniteArticle,
We have followed this issue for a few days now. When he started to happen? Ask yourself if it is an update of the extension, or something.
- In the url bar, type about: config and press ENTER. Confirm that you be careful and move forward.
- In the search bar the top, past this text without the quotes "network.http.accept encoding.
- This should limit the values in the configuration file to a single line. Please tell me what you see in the column 'Value'?
- This field should be read 'gzip, deflate' without the quotes. If this isn't the value, double click on this field and paste this valley in.
- Restart Firefox and try a page that has had strange encoding before.

Try Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there.
A way of solving problems, which disables most of the modules.
(If you use it, switch to the default theme).- You can open the Firefox 4, 5, 6, 7 SafeMode pressing the SHIFT key when you use the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
- Or use the Help menu option, click restart with the disabled... modules while Firefox is running.
Do not choose anything at the moment, just use 'continue in safe mode.
To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the shortcut of Firefox (without the Shift key) to open it again.
If it's good in Firefox Safe mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one.
http://support.Mozilla.com/en-us/KB/troubleshooting+extensions+and+themesWhen find you what is causing that, please let us know. It might help others who have this problem.

I have my best sites 'pinned' to the new tab. Since the update of Firefox do show that the first four sites (top line) and I can't drag/release those missing bookmarks.
I have just discovered that the sites are still there but only appear when I select the mode "full screen".
Is there a way I can restore the page to show two lines of pinned sites without being full screen mode please?
It seems that there is a regression with 39 Firefox on the new tab page. A bug report has been filed on 4 and the triage team responded.
I saw the same thing with the difference in mode full-screen during the test of this "change"; the 'missing' line appear in full-screen - but with the resolution of my screen, I could see two rows of tiles, the 3rd rank was not missing mode full screen.
Overall, I think you should try the new tab extension tools and see how you like it.
https://addons.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/addon/new-tab-tools/I use that in a number of my Firefox profiles. Profile where I checked this problem which has been mentioned in a number of discussions of the forum over the weekend that I use rarely - I use it see how Firefox works as "installed", before making a change.

Since the update for Firefox 4, I offer more the ability to save tabs on shutdown - makes more rapid access to these sites when commissioning the next day. Why this possibility has been removed? It was a feature favorite and saved a lot of time.
Firefox 4 records the previous session.
You can use "Firefox > history > restore previous Session" for the previous session.
There is also a button 'Restore previous Session' on the default on: Home home page.Another possibility is to use:
- Tools > Options > general > startup: "When Firefox starts": "show my windows and tabs from last time '.
You can set the preferences of warning on the topic: config page true via the context menu or toggle the value with a double click of the left.
- browser.showQuitWarning, see http://blog.zpao.com/post/3174360617/about-that-quit-dialog
- browser.tabs.warnOnClose, see http://kb.mozillazine.org/About%3Aconfig_entries
- browser.warnOnQuit, see http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.warnOnQuit
- browser.warnOnRestart, see http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.warnOnRestart
To open the topic: config page, type Subject: config in the address bar (address) and press the 'Enter' key, as you type the url of a Web site to open a Web site.

Since the download of Firefox 4, I have problems of archiving gmail conversations since my Inbox view (one or more conversations) as it says 'No. Conversations selected' when I selected one or more. Also, when I go to enter a new event in google calendar, I have to click the cursor in the field type of the event (it used to let me just start typing) or else he bends and begins to jump to the day view or another month. Does anyone know how to fix one of these?

You can check the suspicious extensions or recently installed unknowns.
