why can't i save multiple cards while in the past i could and i'm still using firefox 4?
In the past when i was closing firefox and i had opened multiple cards firefox asked if i wanted to save them,just close or not close at all. That thing still happening when i started using firefox 4, but yesterday when i tried to close it and i had multiple cards it just asked me to close or not. Why is that happening and how can i change it back to the way it was?

One change in Firefox 4 is to by default stop Firefox displaying the warning message, but it can be turned back on by changing some preferences.
- Type about:config into the location bar and press enter
- Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
- Locate the preference browser.tabs.warnOnClose, if its value is set to false, double-click on it to change its value to true
- Repeat this for these 3 preferences browser.warnOnQuit, browser.warnOnRestart and browser.showQuitWarning
If you always open the last set of tabs, an alternative approach is this:
- Click the orange Firefox button, then select options to open the options window
- Go to the General panel
- Change the setting "When Firefox starts" to "Show my windows and tabs from last time"
thank u very much Tony the second solution really helped me!However,the first one was already turned into "true" ad the 3 other preferences didn't exist.Thanks again for your time!
Firefox 4 saves the previous session automatically.
You can use "Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session.
There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default about:home Home page.
