Why FireFox continue to change the window by clicking on another program?
I've upgraded to FF 8 recently. When I start it and go to, let's say, Gmail (in the window), and then open a different browser window (window B) to go, say, Facebook, if I click on another program like Live Messenger or even a reduced window of another window in FF program always changes. For example, I watch window while B is open. I click on the message box Live and B window changes. I click A to return to this window, then click on the box again and B back appears. I can't seem to stay out of no matter how many times I try.
Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > appearance/themes).
- Makes no changes on the start safe mode window.

Firefox continues to change the url that I entered
I've updated a Web site. When I paste the url in Firefox it keeps changing and display a different page.
The one I want is http://megalithmovers.org/blog-2015-10-24.htm
Firefox continues to change it to http://megalithmovers.org/blog-2015-01-24.htm
The two pages are valid (they have the date in the url as YYYY-MM-DD)
I know that the url is valid, that I stuck in other browsers. Somewhere FF has cached the page in January. Being too smart for that is good, it's settled I've mistyped the url and displays this page, not the one October.
I deleted all the history of this site, but that makes no difference.Please don't tell me to restore the FF default settings - I'll have to re - install all Addons then.

Why itunes continue to change the type of my music?
Why doesn't iTunes change the kind of some of my music to a number of 'Rock' to '17' to play, more importantly, how do I stop doing that?
If it comes to music that you are streaming, or was accompanied in iCloud music library or iTunes Match, then there is not much that can be done. That's how it is coded by the distributor in iTunes. You can report this error directly to Apple via this link http://www.apple.com/feedback/

Why Firefox does not change the URL of a site when I press return?
When I try to access http://www.railpage.com.au/f.htm, Firefox removes the slash final and search http://www.railpage.com.auf.htm. Of course, I get an error message. The site doesn't work when I manually insert the missing slash.
Hello
Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most of the modules.
(If you use it, switch to the default theme).
- You can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
- Or open the Help menu and click on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item while Firefox is running.
Once you get the pop-up, simply select "" boot mode safe. "
If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. To do this, please follow article Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems .
To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.
When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. It might help others who have the same problem.
Thank you.

Bridge continues to change the selection of the sort each time that I reopen it the Bridge window... WHY?
I continue to get "sort by modified date" but each whenever I open it a window that it is for manual selection.
I searched the preferences but impossible to find something to help. It didn't used to do this...
John
Well, I solved the puzzle myself.
I noticed that somehow a stray .psd file was stuck in my side bar of the Mac Finder. Don't ask me how it got there.
At the beginning I couldn't delete it – until I tried a Mac forum and they suggested I hold down the command key and drag it off... to poof!
It worked.
And when I went back to bridge - now the bad behavior disappeared! And when I close the window Bridge and reopen - the choice to "classify" same home!
Yay... it's a small step for me, and one small step for computerkind.

Given that everything goes well in safe mode, one of your extensions or themes is at fault. See Troubleshooting extensions and themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to figure out which one of your modules is the cause of the crash.

Why first changing the Windows 7 display settings?
Hi all
I am running Windows 7 on a brand new i7, two monitors and a nvidia Quadro 4000. I have most of the Windows display settings (Aero-stuff) turned off to speed up Windows performance.
When I opened the first, first changes the windows settings - something - display. Both monitors flicker black and the Windows taskbar change color and opacity, as if someone had gone in the command menu customize and changed my look colors and display.
The question is this - because the first is changing my display of the Windows desktop, other programs are still using the previous (correct) display settings. Causing other programs to crash whenever I try to alternate between them. It translates into me being able to run the first to him alone, which significantly slows the multitasking.
WHY FIRST CHANGE MY SETTINGS IN WINDOWS?
Better yet, how can I stop this? I can't find any project, General or sequence settings that give any hint.
If I need to change the settings of Windows customization to match first is to choose himself, it's good, but I still need to know what are these parameters, so that all programs use.
Thank you
-Matt
I use a full Win7 Aero desktop computer on my Quadro 4000. I had a problem similar to yours; "Aero" turned off when Pr and then open 'Aero' turns after the release of Pr. If you go to the NVIDIA Control Panel, under Management 3D settings, on the global settings tab, select a color deep for 3D applications and assign the disable. Then check that Pr uses this setting by looking at the Pr entry on the program settings tab (if the Pr does not list programs you can Add this).

Cannot change the windows 10 homepage
I updated my operating system Windows 10. Now, no matter what I do. Firefox will not change the start page. I refreshed, uninstalled and reinstalled with the same results. It will not load the page start I want. Reflecting on the cover page, I entered when you first set up firefox. I tried everything suggested on the web people and nothing. Any suggestions? I would like to Hat dating back to Chrome just for this reason.
Do you mean that the parameter of start as you can see in "Options/Preferences > general" and in the pref browser.startup.homepage evolves?
Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problem.
See "create a profile":
- https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/Profile-Manager-create-and-remove-Firefox-profiles
- http://KB.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a profile already used in the new profile, but be careful not to copy files corrupted to avoid transporting more problems.

Why Firefox doesn't load the JCPenney update web page?
I just spent an hour on the phone with JCPenney, and then we are cut off. The gal is telling me where things are running on their new website, and I'm telling him that no such thing appears on my page.
After that, we got cut, I opened Google Chrome just for the heck of it and used my LastPass to open a session for JCPenney. LO & this IS! All these things the gal was trying to tell me about the page - are actually on the page.
Now why Google Chrome will load the new site of JCPenney as Firefox continues to load the old site?
Thanks a bunch! It worked.

Vista continues to change the date of modification on my files. It's on a shelf; I use Word and log a lot and sometimes need to sort by the update. and then Vista arrives and changes the date on everything... I'm doing something wrong?
Hi Joyfnp,
O the date system is not accurate?
O since when are you facing this problem?
O recent changes made on your computer?
In the meantime, you can start your computer in safe mode and check if the problem persists.

my computer continues to change the date and time
my computer continues to change the date and time even after I set it correctly. I am running windows 7 Professional. Thank you
Hello
· Since when are you facing this problem?
· Did you the latest changes on the computer before this problem?
Method 1:
The date and time in the BIOS settings may be incorrect.
Important: Change BIOS (Basic input output system) /(CMOS) complementary metal oxide semiconductor
Settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.
You can see this:
Incorrect time is displayed on 64 bit versions of Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2 after upgrading on-sitehttp://support.Microsoft.com/kb/2001086
Method 2:
I suggest you replace the CMOS battery. If you are not comfortable with that, then I suggest you to contact the manufacturer for assistance.

If I click on a link in a PDF file from Firefox 3.6.10 he's trying to open it with Acrobat 8 and breaks down, while if I double-click on a folder it opens properly with Reader 9.1
If I try to open with Acrobat 8 for the record, he does not either, but why Firefox does not use the default program?
Go to tools | Options | Applications. The first 4 entries focus on Adobe. Make sure that the association is your version 9.1. If this is not the case, click on the association that shows. You will get a triangle pointing downwards to the right. Click it, and then check if 9.1 is displayed. If so, select it. Do the same for the other elements of Adobe.
You can also check the "Folder Options" in the control panel. In the tab "File Types", you will find all file extensions and the programs with which they are associated. Scroll to the PDF extension and make sure that it is associated with a "Document of Adobe Acrobat. If this is not the case, click the < button > and find adobe in the programs list.
Just to let you know, Adobe Reader is now up to version 9.4. You can go to the Adobe website to download the latest version.
