When I close a tab, a vacuum opens it won't let me close. How can I stop this?
It started a few days ago and there is nothing too serious, but it is kind of annoying. If I have two tabs open and close one, a new empty tab opens. I try to close it, but it doesn't let me, however, he lets me browse on this tab, simply not close. I tried to disable Add - ons, and that did not work. Sometimes I want to just a tab open, but it just won't let me open only a single tab.
I have Firefox version 31.0 and I use Windows 7, if that helps.
Hello, Ardygil!
This is a bug that can be fixed by restarting your computer. I'll file a bug for you report and if the restart does not work, uninstall and then reinstall

Sometimes when you view an Acrobat file created by others, square replace some characters. How can I stop this?
Hi John -.
It seems that no one has answered your question. Sorry for the long wait!
Squares can replace characters when you're dealing with missing fonts, or who are poorly integrated. It is important to see the text, you can ask the person creating the document to convert the PDF image pages PDF file, which then displays the fonts.
Places instead of the characters may appear if you are using a scanned page, for example and capture the text.

The account on Thunderbird for my e-mail address won't let me update my box in. When I go to 'New Messages' there is a lock on the envelope and I get all new messages. How can I sort this allow mw to receive my massages?
The padlock just means it's a narrative that uses a secure connection. It is unlikely to have nothing to do with your inability to pass messages. Who is the account provider?

Uh-oh, you may have installed a non official package containing the update. If your download history indicates the source, can report you here?
Your "more system details' shows the extension MySearchDial. I recommend you to remove that from the addons page (if possible) or from the control panel.
Either:
- CTRL + SHIFT + a
- Firefox orange (or the Tools menu) button > Add ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then find MySearchDial and remove (or at least turn it off).
If necessary, open the Control Panel, uninstall a program, then click on "installed on" heading of the column to bring recent infections, uh, additions, upward.
Hopefully he cleaning?

When I open a link that opens a new Firefox window, it opens 2 tabs instead of one. A tab is the link that I opened and the second tab is just a generic Mozilla tab with links to 12 pages like Facebook, Youtube, etc. This tab opens on top too, so I always have to close to get what I'm looking for. How can I stop this from happening?
Hello. Thanks for all the posts on this topic. I have the same problem, as described by the op. But, while I use Avast, I have NOT the add-on from Astromenda which has been mentioned. However, I have the SB installed toolbar, and it has been recently updated, 29/12. I suspect that it is the culprit, if this problem is in fact not caused by an update of Firefox (my tiles have recently been reset on new tabs, and I suspect that Firefox for this problem).
I am ready to remove the toolbar from the SB, but prefer to keep it (Yes, I admit I'm stupid) If this annoying 'new window = 2 tabs with 'new tab' at the top' would just leave.
Apart from the removal of the toolbar SB... does anyone have suggestions? I don't see that all recently added add-ons/extensions that I don't recognize, apart from the update of the toolbar of SB.
Updated: 5 minutes after this announcement, I disabled the toolbar of SB and restarted Firefox. No change.

When I open the file Downlad box in Firefox (v28) and asks me to select a file to download... as I click to scroll down the download file box things work well... then all of a sudden things scroll down (fast) at the bottom of the download file by itself.
How can I stop this from happening?
Thank you
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 (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).
- Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode without failure.

When I opened iMovie automatically opens to the last played film instead of asking me what I want to do. I then shut down the film before I was presented with the opportunity to create a new project. How can I stop this waste of time boring? I use the old iMovie HD 6.0.4 because I find that it is superior to the new versions. IMac 27 "2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo.
This has always been a 'feature' of iMovie 6!
The only solution I know is to move the project current iMovie to another folder, which is in documents, for example, where iMovie can't see it.
