At libreoffice site I clicked on download and the download appeared in "My Documents" in "Downloads. When I click it to install it, it says it can't read it and to contact section administrator.

My laptop has been stolen and I made a backup of the bookmarks on a additional hardddisk.

I bought a new computer with Windows 8 on it but my backup has been made on a firefox version compattable with windows Vista.

How can I restore the backup from the bookmarks on my new computer with Windows 8 firefox version 21 It appears that I can only import HTLM bookmarks.

The backup from Firefox was made on January 30,2013

When I went to the tools area of Firefox to delete the latest history, that option had become unusable. How do I get the ability to delete the latest history back?

I now have a whole months worth of history, some of which I thought had already been deleted.

I noticed that as of today, every now and then, a drop down commercial ad (with voice) appears on my FF browser screen. This has never happened before. I've run a Windows Defender, and Microsoft Safety Scan. The problem continues.

Watching videos on youtube it happens that videos tend to stop somewhere while playing. Going to the end thumbnails, so its not buffering. It will play past the point if reloaded but is very likely to do the same thing again.

Any idea what could be causing this issue?

Occasionally, when I access the site: www.animatoons.com.br, the screen changes and enters this site: http://createspaceforlife.org/update.html. It's a virus site?

I had to shut everything down on my computer last night. Normally, I don't worry about it and just go to history and restore previous session (though often the option shows up automatically when I reopen FIrefox. When I go into history and click on the Show all History option -- it looks like EVERYTHING has been wiped out. Is there anyway to get that information back? I have a Mac and am wondering if I can get that information via Time Machine somehow.

Hi

I would like to know, whether is there any ContentProvider for Firefox on Android provided in order to access the bookmarks via an Android application? If yes, could you share that ContentProvider please?

Thank you

This continues my previous thread.

jscher2000, it was my fault for the disappearance of Private Browsing. In changing the Privacy settings I inadvertantly checked the box that takes Private Browsing away. All is good now except the Copy/Paste issue.

This app market has taken over my home page. I went to control panel and deleted it there but it has not gone away. Avast is what put it there and I got rid of that trouble thing. any help will be grateful.

I was regularly using Foxit PDF reader plugin to view pdf files inside Firefox browser before the pdfjs plugin came through. After that I have disabled the pdfjs plugin (through about:config) and tried many ways to get back to viewing pdfs in the browser using the Foxit plugin but nothing works. I have reinstalled Firefox, reinstalled the Foxit pdf plugin.

When I go to Options > Options > Applications, I cannot see the "Portable Document Format" option on the left column. There is Adobe Acrobat Forms and XML and there is "Foxit Reader Document" (presumably PDF) and "Foxit Reader FDF Document" - I want to change those opening actions to Foxit inside Firefox, but there is no such option either - so Firefox can just download the file and then open in the external Foxit reader, but not inside it.

Any help to resolve this is appreciated. FF 21, Win 7.

For the past few weeks, my audio would cut off for my computer completely after watching a few flash videos. The only temporary solution to that is going to my Task Manager and ending the Flash process. That brings back my audio until it ends up cutting off again after a while. Even only having some non-video Flash process open can cause the audio to drop out. Also, the same thing happens after watching an HTML5 video, though the sound cuts off after only watching a video once and refreshing. When that happens, I have to restart the entire browser to get the audio back. I've noticed that the same thing happened for Ogg Vorbis video and audio on Wikipedia for the past few months.

I've tried Resetting and putting Firefox in Safe Mode in order to try and figure out if any plugin is causing these problems, but nope, still not working.

When checking other browsers, the same thing happens in IE10, but everything works fine in Google Chrome. No problems at all in Google Chrome.

Can somebody help me with this?

I'm having difficulty with text showing improperly on pages. It's a random occurrence, on different websites, at different times. And it's not even all of the text on that page; it's only certain sentences or certain sections.
