Firefox 14 is playing random music and new tabs do not remember sites and are always called "New Tab".
2 problems have suddenly started.
1. A few seconds after I open Firefox 14 (with my home tab set to Google) music or ads or random snatches of radio begin to play. The only way I can stop it is by closing Firefox. After a while they stop.
2. When I open Firefox the first tab acts properly. It is named with the site I am on and, when I leave it, is there on return. The other tabs have suddenly stopped changing names to the name of the site and when I return to them they are defaulting to a page of recently visited sites. This is even more annoying than problem 1. Can anyone help please?

It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.

Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).
I have been having similar problems with 14. I tried updating from 8 and deleting then install fresh but when Firefox 14 starts it does not open to my home page. It also does not open the previous tabs that were open when last shut down. I had to delete 14 and reinstall 8 for the home page and tabs to be remembered and open on restart.
