I followed the instructions for making an APP TAB and succeeded BUT everytime I close Firefox, the app tab disappears upon re-opening. Can someone help please? I held the control button plus I clicked and selected the "Pin..as app tab".
As my question asks, I followed instructions for creating an APP TAB for my web mail account, and succeeded but each time I close and re-open Firefox, the app tab disappears. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong please?

Make sure you close the window with the app tabs last. That way it's the first window to open when you restart Firefox.
Or when you restart Firefox, use Ctrl+Shift+N to open previously closed windows until you get to the one with the app tabs.
Thanks but neither approach worked....In fact, while grateful for your reply...it does not answer my problem as posed. If an app tab is to work as designed, then I should not have to be sure to close that app tab last nor to use CTRL+SHIFT+N to make it work....but thank you... I appreciate the effort...any one else?
One of the frustrating things about Firefox and other web applications, is there seems to be no way to get answers....thanks for trying superkarn!
For better or worse, I think it's part of the design for the app tabs to be window specific. I know my first reply didn't solve your problem, but that was one way that worked for me to get the app tabs back when I restarted Firefox. Also I noticed the tag for this post is Firefox 4. I've only tried it with Firefox 5.
I agree with you that the way it's working isn't ideal. For the time being, I've stopped using the app tabs. Maybe they'll fix/improve it soon.
Hi superkarn...thank you again. I checked my version of Firefox and it is Firefox 5. thanks...if you hear anything, let me know!
