I have a new macbook pro and just installed latest firefox. The problems is i can't seem to disable the tabs from appearing each time i restart firefox. I did uncheck every box in the peferences> tab menu, still can't stop the tabs from appearing.

Hi dcast01,
Are you saying that it restores your old tabs when you restart? Have you looked at Preferences > General to see if Firefox is set to restore your tabs from the last session? You should change it to When Firefox Starts: Show my home page.
Or is your issue that you keep seeing the tab that says "welcome to firefox" when you start the browser? If that's the case, you should look at this article about that specific issue and the article Preferences not saved. These should give you all the information you need!
If that doesn't work:
- Type about:config in the address bar
- Click I'll be careful, I promise if prompted
- In the Filter input field type startup
- Double click on startup.homepage_override_url
- Delete the text string and click OK
- Close Firefox and reopen the window to verify that it has worked.
Hopefully this helps!
sorry if i wasn't too clear. What i meant is that i want to eliminate the tab bar completely. I was able to do this on my mac mini computer, but is not working on my macbook pro.
thanks Matt the deleting the text string worked, no more tabs....woohooo.
