• My new sites pinned tab only display full-screen mode. What happened only since the update of Firefox.

  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.

• Since the update for Firefox 4, I am no longer offers the possibility to save the tabs when closing making it much faster to access these sites when starting the next day. Why this possibility has been removed? It's a favorite feature.

  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.

• Many problems of navigation of Web pages since the update to Firefox 41

  Since the last major update to Firefox a few weeks ago, I had problems during the use of the buttons such as home, end, Pg Up, Pg down when scrolling through Web pages.

  If I press the end, it must be placed towards the bottom of the page, but it usually scrolls a little distance or doesn't do anything. When I'm way down on a Web page, press home should take you to the top of the page. However, he did this on rare occasions. He general scrolls upward further DOWN on the page, scrolls a little lower than the top or doesn't do anything.

  PG. PREC and PG. Prev are similar as well. PG down repeatedly scrolls wayyyyyyy upward or down and Pg up wayyyy goes upward or down... or nothing at all.

  Updating to FF 41.0.2, I had hoped that the problem has been resolved, but alas, the question remains, and so I decided to post this. I tested this on other browsers such as Chrome and MS Edge and they use keys properly.

  Any advice? Thank you.

  Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the < shift >
  (Mac options) key and then from Firefox. Is always the problem?

  Actually, I * think * I just found the problem. I have keyboard navigation and you had a few weeks for technical reasons. That is almost certainly interfere with the navigation of the Web page. I realized the question after going into safe mode. Thanks for the help!

• Since the update of firefox, facebook, yahoo mail and some msn sites do not work

  At the same time as this update, I had cleaned my cache and cookies. But since then, Yahoo Mail are not available in Firefox, Facebook loads with only text for things such as news, login, etc., and several loading in the same way MSN sites.

  You can try the following steps in case of problems with web pages:

  You can reload webpages and ignore the cache to refresh potentially stale or corrupt.

  • Hold down the SHIFT key and click the Reload button
  • Press 'Ctrl + F5' or 'Ctrl + Shift + R' (Windows, Linux)
  • Press 'Command + shift + R' (Mac)

  Clear the cache and cookies only from Web sites that are causing problems.

  "Clear the Cache":

  • Firefox/tools > Options > advanced > network > content caching Web: 'clear now '.

  'Delete Cookies' sites causing problems:

  • Firefox/tools > Options > privacy > "Use the custom settings for history" > Cookies: "show the Cookies".

  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

• Since the update to firefox 25 my 'undo closed tab', 'Restore recently closed tabs' and 'restore previous session' is grayed out, I tried to reset by default

  I only had this problem since update to firefox 25. I tried to reset the deafaults ff. He did restore the "undo close tab" for a short period. but when I quit and restarted ff I have the same problem again. I don't want to have to keep resetting to the default settings, because it's too much time to then get back all my preferences.

  I had this problem as well, I couldn't choose "Restore recently closed tabs" as historic because it is grayed out.

  I went to Subject: config und from 0 (10 is the default value), browser.sessionstore.max_tabs_undo to 10 and I set browser.sessionstore.max_windows_undo to 0 (including default 3) 3.

  For me, this problem solved my problem und now I can restore recently closed tabs.

• Since the update to Firefox 22 Twitch.tv does not load the player more

  I've just updated to Firefox 22 and no Twitch.tvplayer simply does not load. Just a black rectangle where the player is supposed to be and if I right click in this area, I get the same menu as everywhere else, which means that the player certainly didn't load. YouTube works fine however.

  If you use extensions (Tools > Modules > Extensions) as NoScript , Adblock Plus or Ghostery which can block content, and then make sure that these extensions are not blocking the content or Block of Flash .

• Since the update to Firefox 13, most of google's sites will not work in the browser, including gmail, google docs and even research.

  These sites all worked fine before the update and I can access it from the other browsers on the same machine. Google docs just says: «redirection...» "but never goes anywhere Gmail will load up after about 5 minutes, but does not load Gchat and the homepage of google allows me to search once, but after a search, I can't look for something else, it just stops.

  It comes to my work computer, so I don't know much about what is installed on it. I don't know, we use a proxy server, but it is the same one who use other browsers, and they work. But our desktop system only works on Firefox, and I really want to use a browser, instead of switching between browsers only when I want to do a simple google search.

  Hello noamscohen, thanks for the reports with the details of your system. Please enter Subject: config in the location bar, search for the preference named network.http.keep - alive and switch to true, the default, by double-clicking on it. This should make the pages encrypted google dependent again.
