Cannot change homepage to 'current pageS'

Since I updated to Firefox 12 I cannot change my homepage to 'use current pageS' > the only displayed option is singular 'use current page'. And even that one does not work properly. If I focus on a different 'current page' the previous 'current page' still remains my homepage. The problems started after I updated to Firefox 12 last night before going to sleep. Overnight the very very annoying ASK.COM toolbar was automatically installed and set as my homepage. No idea how - I didn't want and/or do it. And when I finally had re-created my set of 15 tabs that I use as my homepage, I could not 'make them my homepage'. Even after uninstalling Ask.com completely there was still the option to select ONE page as homepage. What went wrong? How to solve it?

2 is correct. I'm not entirely sure what you can do about the crashes, but it the future that could be something we will address.

Have to modify my problem: when setting homepages Mozilla 12 completely IGNORES the tabs that have been pinned as APP TAB. Once you unpin them, you get the plural label 'use current pageS' and you can select them ALL as the home pages. So this solves the problem described in my previous post.

Nevertheless, it seems to be an annoying bug: not only because of the confusion, but also because of the work: unpin again, set homepages, pin again. Please repair!

I do not believe this is a bug. App Tabs will still be there after closing Firefox, so it is not necessary to set them as a home page because they will always be there.

If not a bug, then I maybe misunderstand what Mozilla defines as 'homepages': 1. If i have 5 app tabs ABCDE + 1 'normal tab' F and want to create homepages I can only select 'current page' (singular) F. I would assume to be able to select ABCDE+F. 2. Or are ABCDE always and automatically already included in my set of homepages? 3. If Mozilla crashes and restarts the 'current homepages' can be restored, but never in app tabs form: I will have to re-pin them - annoying. Please clarify... Thanks
