منتدى دعم ”Firefox“

As I say, the online help files refer to an "Organize Bookmarks" option, which no longer exists, as far as I can see. I know a lot of "research" went into the Firefox upgrade, and I certainly wouldn't wish to seem unappreciative, but...

Thanks for any help anyone can give.

I had wine spilled on my old computer and it no longer works but I was able to transfer all of my files and information onto an external hard drive after. Is it possible to find and transfer my bookmarks to my new computer from the information I was able to save, or are they gone forever since I wasn't able to make manual backups?

Whether it was Netscape, SeaMonkey or earlier versions of Firefox, there was always a symbol of "home" to return to from wherever other page I was visiting. Now it is gone. How do I set it?

Have been unsuccessful many times in updating firefox. I get the messages: do you want to replace earlier version? I click yes, then get message stating I don't have permission to install the newer version. There has been no asking for a password to install this on my Mac, which is what I assume may be needed for the installation. How can I achieve this?

At times I have been offered ( by firefox) an opportunity to connect with their updater, but this connection has lasted 30 min., with no success, so I have closed the window.

mac desktop when I first open firefox I am know getting two tabs opening every time ( this happened after hours of searching for answer as to how to go back to yahoo " classic mail") the second tab is yahoo help page but as usual it did not help. only other change made yesterday was a add-on which I finally was able to remove.

The whole line containing the awesome bar, the back button, the home icon, etc. is not there. I have tried a second download with the same results. I do not want to lose my bookmarks or history. What is the next step, since Firefox is not usable in this state.

Even though I have the box "Open new windows in a new tab instead" checked, when I click on one of the links in my Bookmarks Toolbar, it doesn't open in a new tab window. I clicked several bookmarks from the toolbar and it happens on all of them.

Also, when I click on different links from different AppleMails, it DOES open a new tab/window.

How can I get the links in my toolbar to recognize the preference chosen to make a new tab/window?

I have a Macbook (bought in June 2011). Several times in past weeks I have been offered a Firefox update and urged to install it. However when I click OK the bar at the top of the window just goes round and round with the half white half blue sort of roll and just won't install, no matter how long I wait. ie it never changes to the solid blue line which should gradually fill up the bar. Thanks Jane

I click download, but no icon shows up on screen to be dragged into the applications folder. An icon does appear in downloads but not the Orange Firefox icon, just the metal one. What's my problem?

Undated to ver 9.0.1 the other day. Since update the Icons for web sites are no longer visible in my Bookmark menu. web site titles are OK, and links all work but 90% of site icons are gone, and the one's remaining are generic Folder icons. Cleared cache, no help, checked all settings...no change.

when looking for a website in bookmarks using OS 10.6.8 on Mac Book Pro all the symbols for the website have been deleted and requires much more time locating the bookmark. What can be done to restore or reactivate the symbol?

How can I upgrade from 3.6 on an iMac when Firefox refuses to proceed with an installation on the basis that I do not have the necessary user rights (even though I am logged in as an administrator)?

This happened

Not sure how often
