When I first open Firefox my top border is yellow just for a second. He has never done before. Why is he doing it now?
It is not that I mind. I'm just paranoid that I have a virus or that someone has access to my computer from somewhere else.
Make a check of malware with some scan of malware programs. You need to scan with all programs, because each program detects a different malicious program. Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database prior to scanning.

How can I get rid two tabs to open when I first open Firefox?
When I first open Firefox I get my home page in a tab, but also another tab opens. This one is set to Facebook. How can I get rid of the opening automatically second tab?
You get two pages if you launch a new window using either:
- CTRL + n
- button '3-bar' menu > new window
If Yes:
Check the settings of your home page to see if you have several home tabs. A vertical bar (|) is used between the addresses. This article shows you where to check them in the Options dialog box: start-up, homepage, tabs and download settings. This article has more background on several tabs home: How to set the home page.
If not, or if the Options dialog box is correct:
Add-ons - can display tabs at startup or in a new window. If you check the address of the Facebook page, this is the URL to normal Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/) or to a different address?
Do you have any extensions related to Facebook? You can view, disable and often remove the extensions on page modules. Either:
- CTRL + SHIFT + a
- "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, when in doubt, turn off.
Often, a link will appear above at least an extension disabled to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links in the last step.
Any improvement?

I would like to just my blog back to its original format without line in the middle of the page and the top edge across the entire page and not only at half way. This occurred immediately after I've upgraded to Firefox 6. The format of my blog is normal on the other computers, but not normal on my computer. Thank you.
Hello Cor - el, Yes, it's my site. When I looked at my site on another computer this computer used Internet Explorer for the web, so I thought it was normal. Thank you for the information on 2/26. I have passed your info to my friend who will try to solve the problem. I'll let you know when she solved it. BMB

I pinned tabs (move the mouse over the tab, right click, select 'Pin as App tab'), but the original open tabs when I re - open Firefox (Ff), for example, I had Facebook open in a tab... I pinned it as a tab App... Size tab is reduced about one outright and moves to the left with the other tabs pinned... when I subsequently re - open Ff, after having disconnected from the network, the pinned Facebook tab is there (it's good), but it's the previous 'normal' Facebook tab (that's annoying). These "redundant" tabs exist for G +, Facebook, iCloud and another site.
This situation has led to my question. THX,-Greg.
First, the version of Firefox you are using is very old and out dated, with several known security holes. I ask that you update to 11 of Firefox to make sure you have not only the fastest Firefox, but also the safest.
Now, as for your question, you want to have your application tabs, but not no matter what other tabs when you start Firefox, correct? If you click on tools, then Options, what is selected for "When Firefox starts"? What is "show my windows and tabs from last time"? If so, you should be able to just show your homepage, set your homepage to wanted something and then, if your app tabs are open, be good to go.

I bought the IPad Pro 128 GB on 3.29.2016. I used it for less than a week. It charged when I first opened it from 67% to 100%. 9.3.1 update. After about 5-6 days, the battery is down to 1%, and now it will not load. I have reset to factory settings and it still doesn't load. There's just 1%. Help, please.
Thank you

It is under warranty. Suggests taking it for an Exchange.

I would like to request my password when I first open Thunderbird.
My hard drive crashed and I lost my address book and archives, etc. When I reinstalled Thunderbird on a new hard drive, I entered my password. Now when I open Thunderbird, he doesn't want my password as it did on my old hard drive. I just want to change the setting, so I did not enter a password when opening Thunderbird. How it is my question.
Second question-2-3 months before the hard drive crash I did a copy and paste of this hard disk backup. Can I used to find my address book and lost archives?
Thank you.
Noah Klein
RE: password
You must select the option for Thunderbird to remember passwords when creating the account.You can delete stored passwords:
Tools > Options > Security > passwords tab
or
Menu icon > Options > Options > Security > passwords tab- Click "Saved passwords"
- Click "Show passwords"]
- Choose passwords of the mailbox and smtp for e-mail account.
- Click 'delete '.
- Click "close".
- Click OK to save the changes.
- Close Thunderbird
- Wait for the background process to finish
- Restart Thunderbird.
He should ask password.

When I try to access XPMode in Win.7 - either, he asks a password that has never been, and most of the adjustments or places to change something is grayed out in the newspaper on the page for XP, or on my computer where there is a chance to change things like "debt", etc. My registry maybe THAT screwed up? Nothing I try to do seems to help. I can delete the virtual machine and the XP mode and then try to re / add? Running out of ideas... ALSO, the repair of my system does NOT work! No restore points that would take me any more than a few days back. This registry problem that happened there is at least a month... Thank you-Jerial

I tried the recommended two solutions to replace but none works. Firefox was slowly turning last night so I decided to update it. Did not help. Downloaded again, but now can't access it at all. I'm on a Mac using 10.9.5.
If he has problems with the update or with the permissions then best is to download the full version and trash the version currently installed to do a fresh install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox application and save the file to disk on the desktop image
- Firefox 41.0.1: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
- Basket of the current application of Firefox (open the Applications folder in Finder and drag the Firefox application to the trash) to do a cleanup (re) install
- Install the new version you downloaded
