I get pop ups saying 21 is out dated , is this true or is this an evil program trying to get me to down load a nefarious product or virus. I close it and look for up dates at Mozilla directly but find nothing newer than 21

I want to pair desktop Firefox to existing sync account, but I don't have access to already synced desktop Firefox account, only to already-synced Android account. How I can do that?

Knowing how to do this, if possible, would speed sorting and relocating bookmarks into folders. If this is not possible, Firefox really should work on achieving this!

I can't get Firefox to appear in the "open with" drop-down right-click box in Windows Explorer on my Win XP Pro PC so that I can open .html files using Firefox. Only my IE and Opera browsers appear in the "open with" drop-down box. How can I add Firefox into this drop-down box? Thanx!

How to know if the page someone is browsing is HTML5?

For example, if I'm browsing php webpage then I right click on the page and "View Page Info", I get this: Type: "application/xhtml+xml".

I tried that on HTML5 webpage but I got the following: Type: "text/html".

We researched IE, Firefox, Chrome, Safari and Opera - looking for a common function key that was unused to utilize for our app's context help key - and settled on the F9 key. Is there a way to ensure that the F9 key-press can be passed to the page -- it appears to do nothing in Firefox, but is not passed to the page. -- Thanks!

After updating to the latest version of FF, I can no longer adjust the window size. I've tried clicking and dragging from all four corners of the window but it stays the same size. Before the update I could adjust the window size. I've tried rooting around in the about:config settings but haven't been able to find anything that would determine the window size being locked to certain dimensions. I have also reset firefox to it's default settings and this does not solve the issue.

Running OSX 10.6.8 with Firefox 20.0

For a long time I was happily using the smart keyword search. E.g. I had assigned custom searches to the letters "d","e","w". All of a sudden, they lead to different destinations. Whatever I tried to change them back - no luck. Please do not suggest editing the bookmarks or right-click/edit in the search toolbar - these actions have no effect. I have searched all the files in the profile folder as well as in the program directory for the urls. No result. Must be hardcoded or something. I don't want thefreedictionary.com, ebay.com and english wikipedia for these letters! What can I possibly do? Revert to an older FF version?

When you go to Firefox my first tab always is assigned yahoo.com my homepage. When I click on the next tab over I would like all of those also be assigned yahoo search page. How do I assign all the other tabs to be like my homepage? When I hit on the plus sign for the next tab it says Search tab - then in says search or enter address - i want this page to go to yahoo search automatically. So when I hit The + to go to the next tab it will give me a yahoo search page. I hope I explained what I want to do.

As you type into the address bar, Firefox displays a drop-down list of suggested sites and actually the pages I have visited.I want to know how can I disable that ? Is that possible? I don’t like it it’s not useful and it’s so unsecure now every body that doesn’t know anything about computer is able to know what pages I visited before if he can be behind my desk.

I just reset firefox after receiving a message suggesting I do so. Now Picasa screen saver doesn't run. I went through the procedure to configure the screensaver in Picasa and in preview it runs fine, but after the time I set (ten minutes) for it to kick in, the screen is black.

I need FF on Linux basis for kiosk with tuchscreen. So it should start automatically from command line (console) in fullscreen mode without window, menu, tabs, adress line and side ruler. I guess I may configure it in some conf file and use some options in command line, but where can I find the full list of options and conf file description?

I would like to change the background colour of the 'about' pages to #EFEFEF or a named colour if such code cannot be used and, if possible, the font colour as well. The white background is my main focus.

I am hopeful that the colour(s) can be changed using the userChrome.css file.

I have been unable to find an answer to the specific question or any source providing a comprehensive list of element and attribute names.

I am using Firefox 20.0.1 on a Linux operating system.

On my old laptop i had XP home and outlook express. If i found something i would share i just had to right clic and then had the opition to 'send link by mail'. Very nice function!! How do i do that with windows 7 with Firefox and Thunderbird?
