System Info:
What version of TabGroups Manager are you using?  24.0
What Operative System are you using? 32 or 64 bits?  64 bits, 10.7.5

Thanks for all you guys are doing with TabGroups Manager !!!
What version of Firefox are you using?  24.0
Are you using any other tab extension?  Colorfull tabs

Regarding issue 18,  I am a newbie, I do not know how to do any of the 
directions you listed in 19.  Is there a way you can list a step by step HOW TO 
for each directive?  Otherwise I am lost.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Installed the BETA-Version
2. Save Tabs manually
3. Closed FF 25 on MAC OS X (Mavericks)
4) Reopened FF 25
5) Tabs are not in same order anymore!!!!!
6) Reloaded manually saved tabs, all is well (this did not work with the old 
BETA I had installed, sorry no version nr.)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
On FF startup tabs shoud be loaded in the same order as they where on closing.

System Info:
What version of TabGroups Manager are you using? 07.07.002
What Operative System are you using? 32 or 64 bits? 64
What version of Firefox are you using? 25
Are you using any other tab extension like Colorfull tabs, Multiple Tab
Handler, TabMix Plus..? No


Please provide any additional information below and screens capture if
possible.

Use mouse scroll to switch tab groups when mouse pointer is over tab groups bar

Upon browser restart or session restore, tabs sometimes get moved to different 
tab groups. The assignment appears to be random.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Use TabGroups Manager.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect that the tab groups will remain in the same tab groups that I place 
them in. However, some tabs are reassigned to different tab groups whenever I 
restart the browser or restore a session.

System Info:
What version of TabGroups Manager are you using? 2013.07.07.002-fx
What Operative System are you using? 32 or 64 bits? Windows 8.1 64-bit
What version of Firefox are you using? Firefox 27.01
Are you using any other tab extension like Colorfull tabs, Multiple Tab
Handler, TabMix Plus..? Session Manager

Tabgroups Manager v. 2013.04.001 (current stable)

Close Firefox.  Open Firefox.  I keep getting a double menu overlay whenever I 
right click on the tab group at the top.  The only way to make it not display 
both menus is by clicking on an open space on the TabGroups bar to cause it to 
display the bottom menu only.  After that, the bottom menu will not appear when 
clicking on a group button.

System Info:
What version of TabGroups Manager are you using? 2013.04.001
What Operative System are you using? 32 or 64 bits? 64 bit Ubuntu 13.04
What version of Firefox are you using? 24
Are you using any other tab extension like Colorfull tabs, Multiple Tab

On recent Firefox releases (FF20+ and perhaps FF19), suspended tab groups are 
"lost" on restart/restore.

This is quite widely reported and there are a lot of tips to revert to older 
versions of Firefox to avoid it, so I guess it's confirmed.

(It's unclear what the status of FF19 is. Some web pages say the bug affects 
Firefox 20+, and Firefox 19 is ok, but when I tried, I had the same issue in 
Firefox 19 and had to go back to FF18 to work around.)

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. click into the tab bar with primary mouse button, on an inactive tab.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect the inactive tab to become the active tab and the browser window to 
show the web page of the clicked tab.

Instead nothing(!) changes at all.
(I am able to change the active tab by Keyboard but it is nowhere near as 
usable. In fact I think I should downgrade Firefox or get a newer 
Tabgroupsmanager version)

Second Symptom:
1. click into the tab bar on ANY tab with the right/secondary mouse button.

Expected:
tab menu opens

Instead a generic Firefox Toolbar menu opens (with entries: "Move To Menu", 
"Remove from Toolbar", "Menu Bar", "Bookmarks Toolbar"... "Customize").

System Info:
Tabgroupsmanager version 2013-07-07-002, which did not show this problem with 
FFox 26.

Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit.

Firefox 29.0.1, which shows this problem all the time, after restart of Firefox 
and Windows.

I also use TabMix Plus 0.4.0.5.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

- Middleclick back button
or
- Right click back button, then middleclick any item of tab-history-menu.


What is the expected output?

New tab with previous page should open next to current (or at least should be 
configurable)



What do you see instead?

The tab opens at the end of tab-bar.



Tested with 201304.10.001 and 2013.07.07.002.
Win7 64 bits.
Firefox 26.

Recently TGM appeared to have STACK related problem......Memory usage totally 
fucked up!

It will fail to save session/ run during normal use.
Also it will lost all of its session data even after firefox closed.
The only solution is to restore a former backup...


Please, I know rewrite this addon is a HUGE workload, and I won't request that. 
I know you guys are doing volunteering job...

All I want is an alternative addon of firefox/chrome

Please, if you know any(it has to be at least as good as TGM), please let us 
know!


I have more that 1000+ tabs and groups....

It seems that best integration with the latest versions of Firefox would be 
achieved if the TGM add-on used native Tab Groups interchangeably with other 
add-ons and the built-in Panorama engine. Instead, TGM stores its own catalogue 
of tab groups and tabs.

A new release of TGM should utilize native Tab Groups such that the groups 
remain even if TGM is removed from Firefox. In this way, Panorama and other 
functionality that use native Tab Groups can interchangeably access them 
alongside TGM.

The tab groups order is rearranged upon every restart and session restore.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Use TabGroups Manager.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect that the tab groups will remain in the same order that I set them in. 
However, the tab groups are rearranged whenever I restart the browser or 
restore a session.

-  Discussion for r82 and future

-  Pending updates for homepage localization

-  Maybe we'll do mini pages at these addresses

-  German, Japanese, Russian speakers please get in touch

TabGroups Manager 2013.07.07.002
Win 7 x64
firefox 24
other addon maybe conflict: tab control 0.5.5

I'm really like this useful addon

I see:
- when i focus to a 1st tab from my 20 tabs, open new tab, firefox will open 
new tab on right side of my 20th tab

I expect:
- open new tab on right side of my 1st tab (current tab)

I hope:
- fix this problem or maybe there is option to "open new tab on right of 
current tab"


Pleeease...
really like this addon

Not sure what's triggering it, but I suspect a CSS issue, ie for some reason 
it's showing black font on a black background.

Perhaps no debug info may be needed (yet) - find where the CSS is defined for 
this, and make sure it's using system colours only for the dropdown/hover list.

I am using the lastest version of TGM - IT IS A GREAT ADD ON, CAN'T LIVE 
WITHOUT IT......

BUT----I COMPLETELY CRASHED and made a file on my hard drive labled:  

" TabGroupsManager_Session_2013_09_07_32_46.tgm2 " 

and the contents look like the following (just partial contents of a much 
larger file): 

HELP: HOW DO I DEAL WITH THIS?  HOW DO I GET MY GROUPS AND TABS RESTORED

I was having problems with  TabGroups Manager 2011.11.28.1 ...

A lot of tabs sticking, overlapping, not being able to close, etc...

Finally got fed up and started hunting to see if there was a fork - found this 
group/this team. Uploaded & implemented: 
TabGroups Manager 2013.04.10.001-fx.xpi

Still had similar problems.

Uploaded TabGroups Manager 2013.07.07.002-fx.xpi

And had instant problems with multi-row open tab capabilities in BOTH 'TabMix 
Plus' and 'Tab Ultilies - updated fork'.

I thought the problem was theirs and dealt with their forums - no one could 
reproduce the situation. So, I started systematically disabling add-ons and 
discovered the culprit.

Something in the beta messes up with any attempt to have tabs go into 
multi-rows; it randomly makes them single row, without arrows for easy scroll & 
search. If the requirements are toggled back and forth enough times it will 
give multi-row tabs, but after a certain (seemingly random) number of tabs - or 
one extra past the middle of the 2nd row?

Empty space opens up to take up a THIRD to ONE HALF of screen real estate. Just 
empty chrome - which if clicked on only gives options to customize icons or 
view or not view toolbars.

This is on windows 7, with Pale Moon 24.02, which is equal to about Firefox 24 
to 25.

Hey guys, Why don't u share this on firefox official addon page? a lot of 
people would appreciate this update's you are doing since the original one it's 
not being maintained.

IN the latest Firefox version 29.
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Right click above tabs brings up context menu to allow session save.
2. As soon as you mouse over the right click menu it disappears
3. And replaced by the Restore, Minimise, Maximise menu. 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expect to have the TabGroups Manager right click menu remain available instead 
of being replaced by the Windows Minmise, Maximise, Restore menu

System Info:
What version of TabGroups Manager are you using? Was using 2013.07.07, but 
downloaded lastest stable version and it still occurs.
What Operative System are you using? 32 or 64 bits? 32 bit Windows 7
What version of Firefox are you using? version 29
Are you using any other tab extension like Colorfull tabs, Multiple Tab
Handler, TabMix Plus..? None.


Please provide any additional information below and screens capture if
possible.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
Firefox 25+ uses a new API to handle some internal variables. Extensions using 
old undocumented ways of importing and exporting information and managing some 
internal variables will be broken.


System Info:
What version of TabGroups Manager are you using?
Lastest stable one.
What Operative System are you using? 32 or 64 bits?
Win7 32 and 64 bits.
What version of Firefox are you using?
Firefox 25+


Please provide any additional information below and screens capture if
possible.

Need to setup a new VMWare with Firefox 25+ and check for errors.
The code will probably need a lot of changes.

Hi guys,
Would like to know if it is possible add a feature into the settings to delete 
old sessions.
For example: Keep session data for XXX days or keep forever.


Thanks,
A

TGM uses hidden tabs in some way. If tabs are not fully loaded, or unloaded, or 
some other circumstances apply, then after a restart or restore, these tabs 
will reload as "new tab" or missing, and will be completely lost. Their tab 
history, and other data allowing BACK or restore also gets completely lost.

I wrote this up on Mozilla forums (with its fix) a while back, and since then I 
have also came across at other users who have had the same perplexing "tabs 
being randomly lost" issue with TGM+Firefox.

The issue is not recent, and not hard to fix, but it seems the original 
developer never fixed it.

The fix is that TGM must set (and check on startup, or override!) 
"browser.sessionstore.restore_hidden_tabs" to TRUE.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Save session and then close the browser
2. Open browser the next day and attempt to restore previously saved session
3. Receive error

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Restoration of previously saved session but instead I get a JSON.parse error.  
If I choose another previous day, it will work fine. It is random at when it 
will actually restore the session from the immediate previous day.

Addon Version 2013.04.10.001 (Current stable from code.google.com)

Try pressing control+shift+A to open the about:addons tab.  It can't open the 
tab.  If the window is already open, the addon will change to the about:addons 
tab regardless of which tab group the tab is in.

I would like to suggest adding a function (or a stand alone program) to export 
the hibernated groups to (preferably) an HTML file, either from within TGM or 
by running a separate program on the save files.

The reason is simple. With many hibernated groups (I used to have around a 
thousand, taking up around 100MB each file), each timer back-up takes a lot of 
time, freezing up Firefox completely - up to 10+ minutes on my (not very fast) 
laptop and I like the back-ups to be each hour, so lots of forced downtime.

Main groups (categories) with subgroups would make the hibernated tabs system 
even better, as it would allow a logical structure helping a lot when 
researching different topics and if access could be locked with a 
pw on selected categories/main groups, the trees would almost be touching the 
skies.
It would be a fast way to make link lists on a given topic as well.


I tried bashing the save files around a little, in an attempt to restore my 
links after a Firefox update, but with the time I had, I didn't get far and the 
format strikes me as unnecessarily complicated (and heavy), as I cannot imagine 
that each link would really need the wast amount of file memory it seems to 
use. A simple record format with: Group name, Link, Link text/title and perhaps 
position in group seems to me to be the important stuff.


A feature to hibernate only some of the tabs in a group would be awesome as 
well, to keep open tabs to a manageable number when on a research stretch.


TGM _is_ a killer app as it stands, please add the above to make it the King of 
apps :)


If you could at least make the record format public, I will make a "Hibernated 
to HTML" converter and make it P.D. or whatever license you prefer.

If you run a decently-lengthed session in a browser, eventually you will run 
into tab placement / useability issues.

Specifically, I have seen the following:

1. Tabs occasionally disappear on their own.
2. When closing / manipulating tabs in a group, various tabs gt "stuck" or 
locked into place. 
3. Occasionally, a space will open up where a tab should be; subsequently, no 
other tab can be moved there.
4. Occasionally, a tab turns black and cannot be used.

I have seen this behaviour with TGM in production versions of Firefox 18 - 21.

Old issue, issue described in title and doesn't need more detail.

TGM groups appear to use the same structure as Firefox's Panorama. This can be 
seen by CTRL-SHIFT-E to view tabs groups in Panorama, which shows visually the 
same groups as TGM does in its bar. ("[X]" to exit Panorama)

However TGM is only updating part of the inbuilt Tab Group structures. As 
groups are created or tabs moved between them, Firefox loses tab group 
consistency between the two.

It's much easier to explain by showing how to reproduce it.

1. Along with TGM, install Multiple Tab Handler, and two other extensions: Pano 
and All-in-one sidebar. Configure the last two extensions so that Pano is 
always visible in the sidebar (makes it easier to see).

2. Now, have fun! Create some groups, suspend some groups, drag/move tabs 
between groups, and in the Pano sidebar, select a bunch of tabs and drag them 
to the tab bar or elsewhere in the Pano list, to move them between groups.

   (If Pano shows incorrect group names, or its grouping or ordering of tabs doesn't match that shown by TGM, that's good, it's what we're looking for!)

3. So far so good. If you do this, you'll probably find Pano showing tabs in 
groupings that don't match TGM, and tab groups with numeric "names" (2, 7) that 
don't match the groups TGM is showing.

4. Now... click CTRL-SHIFT-E to flick to Panorama view. Suddenly, Panorama does 
some kind of database update or refresh, and if you exit Panorama, you'll now 
find Pano sidebar shows tab groups that have been updated/refreshed, and *do* 
suddenly match TGM's.

Obviously there is some kind of update or refresh callback/hook that should be 
happening when TGM moves tabs and groups round, but isn't happening, and 
instead the refresh can be manually triggered by the user switching in and out 
of Panorama.

I would like to suggest that tgm be ported over to Seamonkey 
http://www.seamonkey-project.org/ after using FF since before 1.0, all of the 
changes have not helped addons survive.
As i use TGM and keep around 1,000 tabs in groups its an addon that I would not 
like to live without.


from http://gooeysoftware.com/mozaddons/
Why use SeaMonkey instead of Firefox?

Short answer:
Firefox no longer provides the kind of comprehensive browser interface that 
Firefox 3 did, and this is by design. SeaMonkey still does, and this is because 
of a more conservative approach taken by the SeaMonkey project to modifying 
their interface that is unlikely to change. 

I therefore recommend that users who wish to have a comprehensive browser 
interface switch to using SeaMonkey as their main browser. It uses the same 
Gecko rendering engine as Firefox so you'll stay up-to-date with web 
technologies, Javascript speed, security, etc. Its changes to the user 
interface are far rarer and less intense, making interface-related extensions 
much easier to maintain, and of course as mentioned before, the browser 
interface is more comprehensive to begin with which means far less work is 
needed to get it looking and feeling like Firefox 3 (in my opinion, the high 
water mark of web browser interfaces). Whatsmore, as it uses much of the same 
underlying code as Firefox, many Firefox addons are also available for 
SeaMonkey, or can be easily modified to work with SeaMonkey.

to this.

chrome://tabgroupsmanager/content/blank.html

Changes the address above, and as such, empties the tab for this fictious 
address. Usually the tab can be restored by previous button in the next start.

It was in the old version, and in your new version. It was on Fire fox 14, 17 
and 25. Especially often i happened to get it on 14 because was on it more. I 
first didn't know maybe other units miscompatiblate with T-g-m, but now have an 
almost clean Fire fox 25, just Session manager, Maff, nosquint, imagezoom, 
imagerotate and that's about. But it does it. In 14 it did it almost as often 
than once in 2 launches. Now rarely.

Yeah, and didn't ever install Chrome. First bet would be compability with 
Session manager.

General inquiry for open discussion:

Given the difficulty in finalizing legal issues pursuant to satisfying Axel 
Shootingstar's original license and modification terms, would it make sense to 
use his original code as a guide and simply create an entirely new add-on?

Enough time has passed (and changes introduced into Firefox) to perhaps make 
this a worthwhile endeavor. Advantages:

1. We can work with best practices and technology from 2013 instead of 
revamping an old codebase;
2. We can work together to create the new code rather than having to try to 
learn how Axel did everything;
3. We can more easily specify new features and functionality without having to 
figure out how to cobble it in;
4. Now that this site exists, it will be easier to rally people to an 
open-source effort;
5. We will be able to immediately publish without worry of licensing issues.

Thoughts?

The license can be found in the 
[https://code.google.com/p/tabgroupsmanager/source/browse/trunk/license.txt 
license.txt] file made by Alex Shootingstar. It is in Japanese and the online 
translators doesnt help much to guess what type of license and rights we can 
have to play and distribute the code.

We would need a perfect translation from someone who understand Japanish and 
check if its possible to apply another open source license type like _MIT X11_, 
Mozilla License, BSD..

Guys,

Really appreciate you picking up this project and running with it.  If I knew 
how to code better, would offer to help.

Couple of quick Q's:

(1) Any way to sort one's hibernated tab groups?  I have a few hundred or so... 
just spent quite a while looking for "recipes" this nice Sunday before lunch.

(2) Any way to search one's tab groups
     (a)  active, hibernated or both
     (b)  By Tabs Group Name or by Page Name within all Tabs Groups
     (c)  By content within pages of all active &/or hibernated tabs Groups

(3)  This extension is a phenomenal feature for Firefox.  But at times, am 
concerned falling behind other browsers.

(4)  Any work considered to make Tabs Group Manager a "standard"; by that I 
mean ability to run on Safari &/or Chrome?  Essentially, intent is so users who 
invest multiple years into this means of remaining organized in their "web 
life" are not left behind if other browsers become more dominant with other 
features in the future.

(5)  You guys could probably start a successful s/w company around the above 
points !!!  Feel free to contact me on all these points.

Very Best,

On recent Firefox releases (FF20+ and perhaps FF19), when a session restores, 
the tabs and tab groups are re-ordered into an almost random order compared to 
when the previous session was saved or ended. In previous versions of Firefox 
the tabs and groups restored in the same order as when saved.

(It's unclear what the status of FF19 is. Some websites say it affects Firefox 
20+, and Firefox 19 is ok, but I had to go back to FF18 to work around.)

I use mouse scroll while holding pointer over tab bar to switch between tabs. 
This is done via the Tab Utilities (or Tab Utilities Phoenix) extension. When I 
used original TabGroups Manager, it worked OK and tabs were scrolled 
consistently. With the latest beta (addon-2013.07.07.002-fx.xpi) it jumps 
between groups. I mean, when I'm in the first group with lots of tabs, I scroll 
them with mouse scroll and it scrolls through the first three tabs, then 
switches to another group and scrolls its tabs, then switches back to the first 
groups and scrolls a few more tabs in it, then switches to the third group - 
etc. With original TabGroups manager it scrolled the whole group consistently, 
and after the end of the group it didn't switch to any other group but to the 
first tab in the same group instead. Firefox 23.0.1.

Here's TGM issues I'm aware of (to add to the list if they aren't there 
already):

1. (FF19/20+) suspended groups are lost on restart/restore.

2. (FF19/20+) tab/tab group ordering is lost on session load/restore.

3. "browser.sessionstore.restore_hidden_tabs" is not overridden to TRUE by the 
extension, therefore tabs can permanently be "lost" or not saved when a session 
restores.

4. Hibernated group count isn't updated when groups hibernate or unhibernate.

5. When using multiple tab handler, attempts to drag multiple tabs between 
groups can be extremely unreliable or simply persist to fail, and the "move to 
other group>" context menu doesn't always show if multiple tabs are selected 
(which would allow it to be done without drag&drop)

Hope this helps!

I expect to see my tabs and TGM:Hibernate Group.
Instead the TGM bar is blank while my tabs are at the top, the TGM:Hibernate 
Group boc is stuck at 20, and when I go into sessions/hibernated/closed groups 
when I right click it shows them as empty

I haven't found any documentation for this one, but we've all talked about it.  
Let's open a case here.  Maybe we can post another issue for interface testing 
on select versions of Firefox.

"There is a bug with the dev version that needs to be fixed. When you have tab 
groups at the bottom underneath the bookmarks bar and you right click on a 
group to bring up the menu options for hibernate and all that, it pops up the 
menu that's meant for right clicking on the group bar as well, so you get 
overlapping menus. That needs to be fixed. There should be an option to change 
the menus behavior based on left click, right click, middle click. You're going 
to say there is, but there really isn't. The option is there, but it doesn't 
allow you to change the right click behavior. There is no pull down menu. I'm 
using 24 Beta 1, so maybe this is just a bug with it. Not sure. Please fix it 
in next dev version. Thanks for keeping this alive!!"

Bug 996053 is landed - make nsISessionStore's setTabValue, setWindowValue and 
setGlobalValue take arbitrary JS values but throw for non-strings, for 
consistency with SessionStore.jsm

Result:
NS_ERROR_XPC_JAVASCRIPT_ERROR_WITH_DETAILS
[JavaScript Error: "setTabValue only accepts string values" {file: 
"resource:///modules/sessionstore/SessionStore.jsm" line: 1779}]'[JavaScript 
Error: "setTabValue only accepts string values" {file: 
"resource:///modules/sessionstore/SessionStore.jsm" line: 1779}]' when calling 
method: [nsISessionStore::setTabValue]

File: undefined
Line: 2912
Stack:
undefined

the lines can differ due various fixes in my tabgroupmanager.js, but its always 
setTabValue() in relation to group id:
2912
3471
1121

Solution:
convert the 3rd parameter with .toString()

I just installed this addon and it looks wonderful for a tab hoarder such as 
myself. I find my internet usage scattered and my number of tabs unmanageable.
One thing I would like is for functionality like autogroup (found here: 
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/autogroup/?src=search ) but tied 
to my tab groups. i.e. I could setup rules to automatically snap new tabs with 
the word "rom" in the title to my gaming tab group, "droid" to the andoid 
group, etc.

This would GREATLY increase functionality for myself.

inability to update:  "Firefox is being updated by another instance" messsage

I have hundreds of tabs in tens of groups. Usually this makes no problem. But 
occasionaly, Firefox signals an out-of-memory error despite the fact that there 
are still lots of free memory in the system. Once I start getting this error, 
it doesn't solve itself and I have to restart (kill) the Firefox. The error 
occurs (only?) on both automatic (timer, on exit) and manual session saves by 
TGM.

The error reads:

  NS_ERROR_XPC_JS_THREW_STRING
  'out of memory' when calling method: [nsISessionStore::getBrowserState]

  File: undefined
  Line: 869
  Stack:
   undefined

I suspect that this error occurs only when I browse the documentation on IBM 
sites, like 
http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/idm/v2r2/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.ibm.db2tools.f
peic.doc.ug%2Ffpeic282.html. These pages consume extreme amount of memory and 
CPU, so there may be some other problems with them too. But this is just an 
observation, it may not be correct.

System Info:
TGM 2013.07.07.002
32-bit Firefox 24 on Windows 7 x64
lots of addons, including the following tab-related addons: Multiple Tab 
Handler, Suspend Background Tabs, Tab Scope, TabGroups Menu. But with older 
versions of FF and TGM this was happening too (though I am not sure that the 
error message was exactly the same).

Currently the error is occuring, but FF is still usable and works without any 
other problem. FF takes 3.3GB RAM, the system has still 1GB of free physical 
memory (and 7GB of free virtual memory).

When using multiple tab handler, attempts to drag multiple tabs between groups 
can be extremely unreliable or simply persist to fail (typically an attempt to 
drag does nothing more than change the tab selection), and the "move to other 
group>" context menu doesn't always show if multiple tabs are selected (which 
would allow it to be done without drag&drop).

More info available if needed.

-  Response to case 18

-  Canceling the confirmation opens session file in browser

-  Drag and drop should overload all default handlers

-  Implement a browser toolbar button

-  Implement a GroupBar menu item

-  Acceptance testing

Before submitting the issue, please check that your version of TabGroups
Manager is the lastest stable one. (Check it in Firefox Extensions).

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Have two FF windows, each with several tab groups, some open, some suspended
2. Restart FF.
3. Observe that one window will have all groups, both open and suspended, but 
the
   other window will only have the ones that were open at the time of restart.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Please provide any additional information below and screens capture if possible.

Up to now, I've always been able to get back the missing groups by doing a 
manual restore of the previous session.  Since I upgraded to Ubuntu 14.04 with 
FF 29, this no longer works.

I had a situation a while back where I also had trouble getting back lost 
groups from previous sessions, but was able to get them back somehow, but I 
don't remember the details or the incantations I needed in order to do this.  

At any rate, I've lost a ton of tabs and would like to get them back.  I'm sure 
they're out there somewhere, but I'm not sure how to get at them.  If they're 
truly lost, I do have a backup from a couple of weeks ago or so that I could 
get them from, but I'm guessing they'll get lost again on the next restart.

I've bumped into this sort of problem every so often with TGM, but this is the 
first time I haven't been able to find a workaround.

Before submitting the issue, please check that your version of TabGroups
Manager is the lastest stable one. (Check it in Firefox Extensions).

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Click in one tab. It is selected.
2. Shift click in another tab to add a second tab. 
3. The second tab is selected, but the first tab is unselected

What is the expected output? 

I would hope to be able to select multiple tabs. This would be very useful when 
I want to send multiple tabs to another group.


What do you see instead?

Only the last tab I selected is selected
