Since the v 10 upgrade, can't (empty) homepage to load. Tracks of Firefox "Add-ons compatibility check" then load '... NEWS "even if the blank page is specified as opening in the screen Options screen.

Have tried to paste the screenshots here showing problems as described.

Hi MRWPLUS,

You should look at this article on this specific issue and Preferences not savedarticle. It should give you all the information you need!

If this does not work:

  1. Enter about: config in the address bar
  2. Click I'll be careful, I promise you if prompted
  3. In the filter field, type Startup
  4. Double click on startup.homepage_override_url
  5. Delete the text string, and then click OK
  6. Close Firefox and reopen the window to check that it worked.

Hope this helps!

  • Can the "first run after update of Firefox" (aka. "What's New" and "Add-on compatibility check") be disabled?

    We intend to deploy an update to Firefox on our campus. The question I have is this: after the update, the "compatibility of the add-on Checker" appears, then the 'What's new' page appears during the first boot after the update. In this case: we use Deep Freeze to prevent kids to do any mischief based on software on the machines. But if we push the update at night, during maintenance windows, they will be frozen in the pre-first-time-run mode. So, whenever a student starts the PC after that, they will get the popup of compatibility both the "What's new" page

    Is there a way I can disable that during the upgrade, so that students will not have to click on these 2 points away? I would like for Firefox just silently disable incompatible modules and do not display the page "news". I found ways to do it, but they involve editing omni.jar and others. I'd rather have a formal, documented way to do this.

    Thank you!!

    Well, eventually nothing worked, except all the settings I wanted to put in part of mozilla.cfg. When I added your suggestion, and one I found on the web to disable add-on compatibility check, I finally have a Firefox that loads directly to the homepage, even after the upgrade.

    Here's what my mozilla.cfg file contains (to 6.0.2):

    // Disable any auto-updates.
    lockPref("app.update.enabled", false);
    lockPref("extensions.update.enabled", false);
    lockPref("browser.search.update", false);
    lockPref("browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone", "ignore");
    lockPref("extensions.checkCompatibility.6.0", false);

    Of course, I must make the byteshift-13 at it, but copy the Core\ file and the file firefox.js to Core\Defaults\Pref\ the round is played.

    Thanks for the help!

  • How can I get the tab of the Add-ons Manager to stop when I go to my home page of opening? (I hate that!)

    When I go to my home page by clicking the home page (more convenient way to access my most frequently used page), the Add-ons Manager will open in its own tab. I don't like this at all. How can I get him to stop?

    Looks like maybe your homepage has been accidentally updated to include several pages, including the Add-ons Manager. Try to open the Firefox options window and paste the address of just your page field "Home Page".

  • How to re - activate the FF 29 Add-on compatibility check

    Several weeks ago, I installed FF 29.0.1 on two virtually identical XP systems. I have been carefully maintain extensions, settings, etc., in parallel on both systems.

    Initially, my main system told me if an extension in my search list was incompatible with 29.0.1, and no doubt, that's what I want to do.

    However, I recently installed a couple of extensions, which seemed to work very well. (I had downloaded installers and then installed in the files.) Then, when I tried to install from the same files on the second system, he told me that they were incompatible with 29.0.1, and that they could not be installed.

    I would like to re - activate the verification of the compatibility of the system on which it seems to have been turned off. I tried FF forums at length, but may not know all the information about: config or other settings may have an impact on this.

    The error message that I get on a system when trying to install some extensions is a small box of drop-down menu of green extensions Manager icon near the top left corner of the screen. However, it disappears when you press the 'Print screen' key and does not appear in the captured image. I noticed this kind of weird on some other sites. So, it seems impossible to get a picture of the message. The message may be re-displayed, but not printed, by clicking on the green icon. However, the text of the message, ' < name of the extension - > could not be installed because it is not compatible with Firefox 29.0.1.» Note: It is easy to reproduce this message, temporarily turning on extensions.strictCompatibility and tries to install older extensions.

    In any case, the system on which I was getting the message now behaves identical to my other system, apparently without any change of parameters. Therefore, I believe that it was a persistent but temporary problem that may have been fixed by a reboot. Therefore, the problem seems to be resolved.

  • Crash 24 Firefox Add - ons due to recent changes to the JSAPI

    We are facing problems with our modules support for FireFox 24. Firefox crashes. In the previous approach we was using 'JS_GetGlobalObject' to get the overall purpose of docShell.
    https://developer.Mozilla.org/en-us/docs/Mozilla/projects/SpiderMonkey/JSAPI_reference/JS_GetGlobalObject?redirectlocale=en-us & redirectslug = % 2FJSAPI_Reference % 2FJS_GetGlobalObject SpiderMonkey

    As per data link above - should I use use JS_GetGlobalForObject or JS_GetGlobalForScopeChain instead of JS_GetGlobalObject. I tried both of them and plus I tried GetNativeGlobal(), GetGlobalJSObject(). but none of them worked. Firefox crashes in all cases.

    Could someone help me with this problem? What changes are required to solve this problem. I paste the code for reference you.

  • Slower due to the Firefox Add-ons.

    This isn't a specific question, as this is more a general frustration with Firefox. I notice that Firefox is much faster if I turn off modules I have installed over the years. It seems that Firefox gets a bad wrap because some add-ons slow down Firefox. Are there no comparative analysis of the tools available to show before and after the results of the use of an add-on? I use 5 of 19 modules at the moment and the performance is much faster. All this time, I just thought that Firefox sucked while disabling modules leads me to believe that the person in charge of this slowdown is due to an add-on.

    In any case, I think that if Mozilla wants to protect their reputation more, comparative analysis tools should be a tool, a user can interact with.

    This thread is 12 months old. Mozilla has recently worked on this issue of modules.

    Test modules for startup, start with performance performance.

    I'm starting to feel like an annoying uncle who comes to dinner too often, but I had another problem for you guys. Start goes normally, but when I click on the icon to start Internet Explorer, a blank page is displayed. At the top reads: "Documents and settings-all users.» "------Windows start menu-programs------startup------start" I ex it out, that is to say then returns.  When I left IE and it starts later, the page does not reappear. As I said, it seems that when I start the computer, and then open IE.  It is not in all programs - Start Menu.  I'm fresh out of virgins to sacrifice to the God of Microsoft, so what do I do?  I have a Dell Dimension 9150, with Windows XP, Service Pack 3.

I know that pilots are Radon X 800 series.  Devices are 554F for the video card and 556F for the secondary graphics card. I visited the ADM/ATI website and tried to use the upload feature and automatic installation, but it did not show any available driver. I have spent more than two hours trying to understand how to find and download drivers, but not luck. Can you help me? I have a Dell Dimension 9150, running Windows XP, 32-bit with Service Pack 3.
