I'm using the addon in my firefox toolbar to print preview website data then append to a pdf file. Sometimes I am distracted, then can't remember if I've gone through the process and printed/appended the page to the file. It would be helpful if there was a way that the print preview window would close after printing thereby confirming that the process has completed. Thanks in advance.

Ok so it started few days ago( when v 15 was new version), 1) firefox lasted at max a minute before crash saying firefox encountered unspecified error and will exit. Then the send crash report box would open. 2) When it was working; my muse kept hanging, like if you unplug it and then plug it in, no problem on other browsers with same sites but on fox it did.

Remedial steps taken: 1) I disabled all addons and extensions no dice. 2) re installed it using v 15 then 16 beta then 16 today no dice 3) Re installed windows and installed Firefox works fine but when i import my stuff from backup even without addons and extensions (using mozbackup) it starts the problems again. repeated step 2 but still zip.

I uninstall it and install version 4. import ALL settings even plugins extensions addons everything and it is working like a charm.

why on earth does newer versions have a problem with it.? they are supposed to be more resistant to crashes.

I am using Firefox 4 with Fedora 15. Attaching files in yahoo mail is not working. It did work with Firefox 3 and Fedora 14. I can attach files in gmail with Firefox 4 / F15 and I can attach files in yahoo mail with Google Chrome. It is just the combination Firefox 4 with yahoo mail that fails. Any suggestions what to look for to resolve the problem will be appreciated. I have also tried with all add-ons disabled and in safemode but this did not change anything.

I have lots of bookmarks in hierarchical folders sometimes 3 deep. Only some of them, and the first level of folders, were imported. How do I get them all? Manually? [Pathetic groan]

I spent about 40 minutes reading up on bookmarks on the Help site. No luck. I tried importing them again and received some more, again with folders at one hierarchy. Some of the bookmarks are also in the wrong place.

I use Command+W to close windows. Unfortunately I often hit Command+Q by mistake, and quit Firefox when I don't want to. Back when Firefox used to ask if I wanted to save my tabs, that gave me the opportunity to cancel quitting. But now there is nothing to prevent the huge pain in the neck of having to restart Firefox and wait for a zillion tabs and pages to load.

Please put in a choice to be warned before quitting regardless.

I've had Firefox 4 since the release date, but today it's been acting up - it's not loading certain webpages properly, removing all the formatting and just putting all the text/links/etc in a list along the left hand side of the window. It's also not showing some pictures at all any more, although they're all hosted on Photobucket. This is literally ther first time there's been a problem with it since updating, and I've not changed any settings on it at all, so I have no clue why it's suddenly broken. Is anyone else getting this?

Naturally I have pop-up blocker functional but there is a new and really, really annoying "coupon" pop-up that is always on Amazon but also on other sites. Close the coupon window and it pops up every time I navigate to look at any product. It really is bad and vexingly doesn't even offer anything that the Amazon template doesn't already offer ("free shipping" above a certain expenditure on some items etc.). It has a distinctive green border and appears on other sites as well. How did they get around your software? How can I make this stop?

Thank you in advance. I upgraded to firefox 4, and since then I have had a problem. When opening a new tab I have chosen to be directed to google.com. In the past my cursor automatically went to the search bar on that page when I open a new tab. After upgrading the cursor just stays in the address bar, but I would like it to automatically move to the google search bar on the page. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks again.
