updated mozilla 9.0.1, opening of firefox get 2 tabs being boring "what's new in firefox. Got rid of him yesterday, but today when you are connected to this topic reappeared

I've updated to Firefox v 9.0.1 and found when opening Mozilla 2 tabs appear. I just want my coming home page. It is very annoying. The 2nd tab is that keeps you pleased and tells you what's new in firefox.

Hi Cardy,

You should look at this article on this specific issue and Preferences not savedarticle. It could be a problem of pref.js. 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!

    Why the last OS update cost me gigabytes of data when you are connected directly to my computer and ISP via Itunes.  29 February 2016

    While it is connected to ITunes via my Dell system, I was informed of the latest OS update for my IPhone 6.  I decided that the direct connection to the internet would be the fastest way to download and install the software.  During the process I started to have some warning of our AT & T account that I approach the limit of our data plan, then in quick succession, only warnings, said I've reached the limit and then passed in the data, limit charges.  At the time it was done, I had accumulated more than 2 gigabytes of additional data charges.

    Until that point, I was very pleased with the device and confident in the ability to use Wifi and data.  Due to this incident, I became very suspicious of the camera and the huge potential for data overcharges. It is extremely disconcerting as it happened while it is directly connected to the internet using my computer at home.

    Please note that, in the episode my ISP and the computer is remained connected to the WEB with no sign of connectivity issues.

    Someone at - he had a similar experience and understand what went wrong?

    Thanks for your support,

    You have chosen the option of direct download, you have received a message of warning from AT & T about it yet.

    When I open FF I get 6 tabs open my homepage twice, FF starts Options page, manage synchronization and sign

    Check that you have not set multiple home pages.

    You can find the homepage here:

    • Tools > Options > general > startup: Homepage

    Firefox supports several home pages separated by ' |' symbol (pipe).

  • How can I get rid of the box that appears when you start Firefox 'Restore previous Session'?

    How can I get rid of the box that appears when you start Firefox 'Restore previous Session'?

    Subject: House is the default in Firefox 4 home page - look at the address bar containing the addresses of web page - it is the container for Google search, with a 'extract container' and below these elements is the Previous Session Restore button. It's not the same homepage that previous versions of Firefox used (although it is similar in appearance), it is a 'local' page that won't load the Internet.

    Set this page as your home page, which is what Firefox 3.6 and earlier versions had for the default home page. He has Previous Session Restore button/link.

  • When I go to the Firefox start page (my homepage), I was informed that "you are not on the latest version of Firefox. Update today. However, when I click on it, I learned: good news! Your Firefox is updated. What is happening, please?

    I don't know that I can add more details on the issue.

    Your home page is likely to google.com/firefox which is more maintained. Please change your homepage to something else, like topic: home. https://support.Mozilla.com/en-us/KB/how%20To%20set%20The%20home%20page

  • Back to Firefox button doesn't work does not correctly when you navigate to the new Site

    When I open a page to a new site that I can navigate forward and backward on this site very much, but whenever I try to leave this site via the back button it shows as if there are no pages beyond this site, like the opening of fresh on this site page. This is driving me crazy so if someone could help this type of person not techno I would be eternally grateful.

    Yes, how the code page tab, you cannot return to the new tab Firefox's built-in page or a page that you want to substitute for it.

    Since this is your home page, you can use the usual methods to return to your home page:

    • Click on the home button in the toolbar
    • Press Alt + home keyboard

    Or you could try a different extension for the new tab page see if that solves it. For example:

    https://addons.Mozilla.org/firefox/addon/custom-new-tab/

    After installing, you must use the Options page to set the new desired tab page (instead of use subject: config).

    Open the page modules using either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a (Mac: Cmd + shift + a)
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then on the right side, find Custom new tab and click on the Options button.

    It is easy to enter your favourite homepage address. If you check either of the boxes, the expansion will set the focus in the page as well, for example, the cursor will be in the Google search box. (See attached screenshot).

    I had to leave Firefox and start it up again before new custom tab started working, but this may have been due to tests so many extensions back to back.

    Any improvement?

  • Why the flat firefox image on the start with WASD page when you click it?

    When you select at home, the normal firefox icon flashes on and is replaced by an image tilted slightly with another small character to the left of the head of Fox and the words click me! If you click on it, the same image now has the letters WASD and a key appears in the centre of the world where the Fox is wrapped around. I didn't know this until the update to the latest verson 33.

    If you prefer not to see excerpts on the topic: home page or otherwise have problems with a snippet of code, you can set the browser.aboutHomeSnippets.updateUrl pref an empty string on the topic: config page.
    Delete the storage\persistent\moz-safe-about + House in the closed Firefox with Firefox profile folder (Firefox '3-bar' menu button > exit/Quit) remove code snippets stored in IndexedDB and make Firefox to use a default extract value.
    You can reset the pref browser.aboutHomeSnippets.updateUrl through the context menu on the default to reactivate the code snippets and make Firefox recreate the moz-trunk-fort-about + folder.
    You have to close and restart Firefox after changing the value of the preference of browser.aboutHomeSnippets.updateUrl.

    You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder currently in use:

    • Help > troubleshooting information > profile directory: see file (Linux: open the directory;) Mac: View in the Finder)

    You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
    You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.

  • Have a hijacker horrible malware in my Firefox, anti-malware (all tested) got rid of him in other browsers, but not Firefox. Help? (Like Firefox better)

    Using a combo of Norton, Spybot, Malwarebytes, and Hitman Pro got rid of this malware villain in Internet Explorer and Opera (didn't really impact on opera a lot at first). He also screwed up Chrome but I just uninstalled Chrome, do not in any case. Firefox is my favorite, and now I feel paralyzed without that it works correctly. It is also a very bad malware, puts several ads on the pages that I know do not really have these ads. It opens several tabs will all sorts of sites that I don't know that the pirate gets money to send traffic to.

    Seems you have not yet posted this question of Firefox if we less information than we could have otherwise. It seems reasonable to assume that you have adware or malware installed.

    Common practice is to digitize up to tools date and multiple. Please follow the suggestions sub and post back to let us know what you have tried and what has been reported or found by each tool.

    Sometimes a problem with Firefox can be a result of malware installed on your computer, you may not be aware of.

    You can try these free programs to search for malicious software that work with your existing anti-virus software:

    Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP, if you do not already have one. Windows 8 already has integrated antivirus.

  • I had synced all my info (passwords etc.) in my old laptop, but today, when I connected my new laptop with my firefox sync account, I found my saved info.

    Before coming to my new place, I saved all my info like passwords, bookmarks etc in my old laptop and they sync with my Firefox sync account. But after that I came to my new place, I bought a new laptop. But when I signed into my account to synchronize Firefox in my new laptop computer, I have not found all of these bookmarks or saved passwords. What should I do?

    Yes, I would say that your passwords have disappeared. When synchronization key is "updated" as indicated in this part of the synchronization log that I cropped, the server is deleted user data because that data doesn't help. This sync key is the encryption key for the user data when these data are user devices that are connected to Firefox Sync. No one, except the person with the right key of synchronization (the "owner" of this synchronization account) can use this data data are scrambled.

    I'm curious to see the full text of the last two files sync-newspapers, 11KO and 38 k is a lot more data than usual for a synchronization log. On my 3 accounts of separate sync I usually see sync-newspapers of 3 KB to 8 KB when there is an error-. Problem is that this forum software does not downloads of files and do a copy / paste of that data in the response box to retain the formatting of line - makes it very difficult to read and follow the sequence of events.

    Sorry, we did not have an outcome.
