  Hi, Firefox is able to open multiple home pages with the URL separated by a "pipe" (|), so please see - How to set the home pageand in "Home Page", make sure that in addition to the URL of your home page (the Firefox start page is Subject: House but you can have another, or the page new tab, which is on) (: newtab) he has nothing else - if that's the case, just delete it.

  If it's easier, you can just click Restore default instead.

  If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.

• Impossible to reset the default Start Page. Receive only messages and e-mail accounts. How can I return to full Thunderbird Start Page?

  I think removing the full Start Page inadvertently and only get lists of messages for messaging and 'Local' accounts when I click the icon of TB. Not have usual site header information or options at the top of the page. Tried to reinstall the program above the stream, but no change.
  Thanks for any help or ideas.

• 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

• Start page Mozilla Firefox causing extreme memory leaks?

  For some reason, when I opened my Firefox today, so bad that I have my computer crashes all also blocks... Even if I close and reopen Firefox, it still hangs... So the only option I have is to complete the process... However, if you wait long enough after my crashes Firefox, it won't hang on and working normally again. For this reason, I did a little investigation to know what could be the cause why my Firefox keeps hanging after the start, and I found an answer to this. I discovered that my Firefox Start Page was the main reason why it crashes. I have concluded that, because when I changed my home page to start on a blank Page, it does not crash, and whenever the Start Page is displayed, I noticed that the firefox.exe process on my task manager going up to 1 000 000 + K of memory... which is obviously abnormal... So the question is, how do I fix?

  See response of cor - el on my page of problem (I had the same problem) a solution that works:

• without restoring the default start page address

  I want to add the new home page of Firefox 13 for the Group of start pages. I don't want to do this restore by default and then have to add the current afterwards. This seems a simple question for me - just give me the address of this page. Without the address I just don't use it.

  Hello, you can either open all the pages you want to have shown at startup in firefox, then go to firefox > options > general and click on "use current Pages" or manually add the default start page to the list. its address is "subject: House.

• Now that I have updated to Firefox, I get TWO tabs that come up... one is my normal start page and the second is the "Welcome to Firefox" page that doesn't seem to go away. I have to go back to Internet Explorer?

  As I said in my question, why the Welcome to Firefox keep opening in addition to my normal start page. It started when I upgraded my Firefox and it IS PRETTY BORING! Also I am not able to erase the history or the restoration of previous session.

  Hi mjp80538,

  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!

• When I click on the Moilla button on my desktop, the firefox start page appears, so does Mozilla no button to access print, history. options etc, it just says: start mozilla firefox at the top page. RT page tc.

  When I click the Mozilla icon on my desktop, a mozilla firefox start page developed that has NO mozilla button to click and access the characters, story, options, etc. Also the entire page shifts automatically down a bit to only show that google question box and no address bar. Also, there was once a place where I could click on pages more accessible, but that disappeared a few weeks before. I have a HP computer and that you never know what will look like the start page.

  Make sure that you run not Firefox mode full screen (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: Ctrl + Shift + F).
  
  If you are in full screen view then hover over with the mouse upward to make the bar appear Navigation and tab bar.
  
  You can click the maximize button in the upper right to leave the mode full screen or empty space of a right-click on a toolbar and use "exit full screen" or press F11.

• I continue to have put my start page because Firefox seems not to remember my setting. What should I do to keep the setting I have chosen?

  I use the Tools General Options. I opened to the top of my preferred Start Page, and then select use current Pages. While Firefox remains open, this setting is preserved. However once Firefox is closed, when I reopen it the browser, my desired start page does not load. I get Speedbit, who was not selected when I downloaded and installed the latest version of Download Accelerator.

• my laptop keeps going to start page.__No regardless of which option to choose, that is to say. safe mode, safe mode, safe mode with command prompt, the last known good configuration, start windows normally, it's always the same

  my laptop keeps going to the start page. No matter which option I choose, IE. safe mode, safe mood with networking, safe mode with command prompt, last known, good configuration start windows normally, it always comes back to the same screen. saw this post before and the invloved boot cd solution. I have not a cd ROM is there another way to solve this problem. Thank you people

  Thank you for taking the time to make this post very informative, excellent. Without the machine test myself that I can't be sure, but based on the age of the computer and what you wrote I suspect for lack of material. It could be something simple like the hard drive or RAM or something more serious like the motherboard. I wouldn't recommend replacing any material on such an old laptop.

  As long as the hard disk has been physically, you can recover your data easily. If the hard drive has failed, then you will need to send the drive to a professional drive savers data recovery company. It is quite expensive ($500-3700), but they can usually recover your data. Some insurance policies cover also, professional data recovery in order to check with yours. But let's be optimistic. ;-)

  IMPORTANT - If there is no question that the drive is at fault - there are noises, for example - and the data is crucial NOTHING else ON THE DISC. Whenever launch you this player you can destroy data. If this is the case, send the drive to a professional data recovery company.

  I'll give you the information on how to test the hard drive to see if it's good physically and how to recover data when you can't in Windows but in doing these things requires a certain level of computer skills. You know yourself the best and that it would be better to take the laptop to a competent local professional. If you do this, do not use a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad of the place. Get recommendations from family, friends and colleagues.

  A. test equipment
  
  Test the hard drive with a diagnostic utility downloaded from site of the disc mftr. or use SeaTools for BACK of Seagate. You create a bootable CD with the files you download. You will need a third party burning software to do as the free ImgBurn, Nero or Roxio. Burn as an image, not in the form of data.

  http://Seagate.custkb.com/Seagate/CRM/selfservice/search.jsp?docid=201271 (how-to)

  Boot with the CD that you have done and do a full test of the reader. You will probably need to change the boot order. Your Dell can give you a temporary boot menu if you press F12 as the computer starts. If so, use your arrow key to select the CD drive. Otherwise, press F2 to enter in Setup (BIOS) and change the order of boot on the CD drive first. If the disk fails all physical tests, it must be replaced. Although readers of the laptop cost around $60, you should really consider if it is to put money in such an old machine. You can replace the disk, but the laptop is definitely at the end of its normal life and something else is doomed to failure.

  There is information about the RAM test and other materials here:

  B. retrieve data detach a healthy disk when you are unable to Windows
  
  1 remove the drive and put it in a box of USB drive or use a USB adapter. Attach it to a computer that is running a working XP/Vista/Windows7 installation. Use the work of Windows Explorer to copy the data to the hard drive of the system to the rescue and burn data on cd or dvd.

  2. you can start the target computer with a Bart PE (if you use XP) or a Linux live CD like Knoppix and retrieve the data in this way. General information about the use of Knoppix for this are:

  You will need a computer with two cd records, which is an engraver of CD/DVD OR a USB stick with a capacity to hold your data OR an external USB hard disk formatted FAT32 (not NTFS) *. Download Knoppix .iso image file and create your bootable CD. If you do this in a previous (XP or Vista) operating system, you will need the third burning like Nero, Roxio or the free ImgBurn software (Windows 7 can burn .isos natively). Burn as an image, not in the form of data. Then boot with the CD that you created, and Knoppix will be able to see the files in Windows. If you use the USB key or an external hard disk, right-click on its icon (on the desktop) to get its properties and uncheck "read only". Then click on it to open it. Note that the mouse action by default in the window manager used by Knoppix (KDE) is a simple click to open instead of double-click traditional MS Windows. If you want to burn CD/DVDs, use the K3b program.

  * My understanding is that you can now write on NTFS from Linux partition. If you wish to do this, Google for instructions on the use of the NTFS driver.

• How can I get the details on my agenda which is on my iPhone and iPad in the calendar on the start page window?

  Original title: calendar

  How can I get the details on my agenda which is on my iPhone and iPad in the calendar on the windows start page?

  It depends on where your calendar is really stored.  He usually stored in your e-mail account and connected to it.  That's how Google Calendar, Gmail or Microsoft Calendar + Outlook.com (formerly Hotmail) function as business/school Exchange email accounts work.

  So long story short, as long as your phone and your calendar app are both set to synchronize with the same server (so the same email account), then they will show the same calendar as events.

  If your calendar is not stored in a service that can interface with your phone and the calendar app, you will need to choose a new calendar service.  For example if you use only iCloud, you should know that Apple does not your calendar to display the application calendar.  Google blocks of even Windows users have the full calendar function.

  So if you need it, my choice is Outlook.com (or an Exchange of Business/School/University account).  If you go with Outlook.com, you can use it to store your calendar and keep your iPhone calendar in perfect sync and there is no need to change your email address or anything deep like that.  In fact, you can connect to Outlook using the same account that you used to ask this question.
