Since the upgrade to FF3.6, I've had several annoying glitches. 1 Dclick desktop icon, FF loads into memory, but does not display. End task. Then Dclick the icon again. This time FF loads and displays normally. 2. After closing FF with Save & Quit, next time I open FF, error message : "Well this is embarrassing, can't recover tabs". Start new session. FF opens with last tab instead of default site. 3. On some sites I click icons and nothing happens. Sometimes other icons on same page will open, but most won't. Internet Explorer will open the same icons, so the Problem seems to be in FF. Am I the only one with these nuisances? Any help will be appreciated.

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

Hello John.

You may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?

Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in safe mode and select Disable all add-ons. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See this article for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.

If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.

After turning on the computer the Firefox displays in the Dock (Mac) and google performs as the browser just fine. Once closing out the tab(s), clicking on the Firefox icon will not restore the Google browser window (Firefox enabled). However, if Firefox is closed then clicking the Firefox icon works fine. I want the Firefox start page up each time the Firefox icon is selected. This problem started after attempting unsuccessfully0 to change the Start Page tool bar.
