IE allows me to drag address bar to another location (up to menu bar or down). I am assuming this it NOT possible in Firefox? Please confirm.

P.S. I'm using Firefox 3.6.12. Cannot upgrade because I'm on dial-up and my web booster does not support later versions of Firefox.

hai. i need help. and just for heads up, i;m not computer/tech savvy.

i dont remember when this problem was started (maybe around 2 or 3 months ago) but everytime i opened some sites, the page displayed for a while then it reload itself and shown a blank page. the link is still the same with the link i tried to access, it just keep loading and shown blank page till it stop loading. refreshing the page wont help. usually i need to click 'Back' then while it shown the page i click 'X' to stop the page loading, so i can see the page.

but if i need to download files, stopping the page wont make me able to downloaded the files since the page didnt fully loaded.

the websites i encountered this was (so far) :

- Indowebster (download page)

- wiki.d-addicts.com (a wikipedia kind of page)

- photobucket (just encountered this today)

- and 1 or 2 other sites, i forgot.

but i can access all those sites just fine with IE. I also able to access it in Mozilla thru my work computer. at first this dint really bother me as i can just click 'stop loading page' or found another download sites for downloading. but as today i experienced it with photobucket 9which as far as i know didnt happened before) it made me worry that soon i would experiencing this with another sites too.

editted to add info :

i already clear cache and cookies. also disable all extensions in my add-ons. from some discussion page, many of them found that this was caused by Real-Player. i have uninstalled Real Player and have disabled the Real Player Plugins long before this problem occured. so i dont think Real Player was the caused.

Had just downloaded newest version of Firefox. Came back to screen later, and it was showing "Fox Save" I believe. Is that firefoxes screen saver? I clicked on all the icons below trying to get out of that screen and finally had to press control, alt, delete to get out.,

I have an iMac and Firefox version 3.6.28. Every time I open Firefox I get a "not using latest version" message but when I download it and try to put it in my apps it says "do you want to replace the newer version that is already installed with this older one?"

I get emails with video's I like to watch. I recently changed my tower and thought I updated everything but every time I click on a video to watch, I get a blue screen with wording on it about error messages. I can't remember exactly what it says but I have to shut down my computer to get out of it. I don't know what to do.

On my Win XP system (running SP3) I currently run Firefox V3.6.28. I want to upgrade to the latest Firefox version that will run on this system. Will my options/preferences settings be preserved in that upgrade, or will they be wiped out?

Longtime FF user. Still on 3.6.28 mostly, due to my need for my large collection of hierarchically organized bookmarks. I have 2000+. Trying FF 19 today. Successfully imported the json file from other system. Via the Bookmarks menu, Show All reaches Library view and everything is there. Except for the fact that this FF design will not let me see the contents of more than one folder at one time. Which is why I've stayed with 3.6.28. Now, a friend has shown me that I can see multiple folders AND the contents of multiple folders using Sidebar Bookmarks, just as I wish. Great! But after importing my bookmarks, all I see is a random list of bookmarks in the Sidebar view. There are no folders or subfolders so with this view I lose all the organizational structure I see in the Library.

Am I missing something? Is there a way (an addon) that would put everything in the Library Right Pane? instead of just one folder? That would be fine.

OR

Is there a way to preserve the organization of my bookmarks after importing them, in the Sidebar view? That would also be fine.

Thanks for any helpful answers. Otherwise, back to 3.6.28 I go.

Firefox screen now different including a caution sign and e-mail address www.Personalinteractive.com at the top. Indicates I am on an old version but when I try to update it indicates my operating system is not adequate. We have an apple laptop running OS X 10.5.8. Also g-mail will not open. Does not accept password.

re: http://www.java.com/en/download/faq/firefox_newplugin.xml

simple installing the firefox java 1.6 plugin fails.

you get a working version of this tiny plugin as a 'reward' once you installed a full Java version. but that adds up to more than 70MB of data unkown necessity and background running services.

Blackberry converter site is the only one I have use for it anyway to key sign my apps .

are there still efforts made to get the plugin working without the c**p?

I am using firefox 15 on RHEL 6.0. I want my firefox "Open File" option could be able to browse only the files in /tmp.Other than /tmp location should be restricted to browse.How to do this?

I tried going to System Preferences/Accounts/Login Items, and Firefox is not checked "On" there. Then I tried changing my default browser to Safari instead of Firefox, but Firefox again launched automatically on startup! I have not added any new bookmarks. No one but me touches my computer, so nobody else could have changed a setting.

I have had Firefox for several years but it remains stuck on version 3.6.3. It is configured for automatic updates but clearly this isn't working. I have manually downloaded the 19.0.2dmg but nothing happens when I try to install. When I try to install from the Check for updates choice under Help I receive an error message to say it can't be updated due to "Update XML file malformed (200)". I don't want to dump and re-install the whole thing as I will lose all bookmarks. Any suggestions?

As of a week ago, when I use gmail in Firefox on one machine, the icons for trashcan, refresh, settings, etc do not appear normal but appear as squiggly lines (I have a jpg if you want to see what I mean, but they almost look like something you would use on an android device or something.)

In IE they look normal, and from the same account on other machines I have, they look fine. Rebooting does not help and I have made no changes to the machine recently. This is the only program that seems affected.

I know this machine has an old version of FF on it, but it worked well until a week ago. i do not really want to upgrade it. I really like this version.

When I open Firefox I want to be able to select which window I want to open. Each window will have it's own set of tabs, which can change as I need to. This allows me to open Firefox with either a "personal" window or a "business" window or a "Social media" window etc. How can I do this?
