Firefox supportforum

Since I upgraded to 3.6.3 my bookmarks folder has become nearly half the size upon exporting it in html format. I normally refresh my working copy of Mozilla by saving the bookmarks and then erasing all aspects of Firefox and starting over from scratch. I am concerned that if I rely upon this smaller folder I may be losing data. Can someone tell me what is happening here? It could be that this is just an improvement in Firefox but I do not know how to test the waters to see if all my data is saved.

I can not open the downloaded files or I can not find them on the download file

I often receive requests for shipping quotes from overseas. I generally provide a quote from Fed Ex, USPS and UPS. The UPS shipping calculator does not function properly anymore and a representative from tech support provided the reason. Only Firefox 2.x is a supported browser. Can I get around this or is it possible to "downgrade" to 2.x version of Firefox?

The font displayed in many websites is a weird webdings sort of font that is unreadable. Please see screenshot from this very site. Anyone have anyone idea?

No matter what I do, I cannot upgrade firefox, and as a result, almost every site I go on that no longer supports my browser keeps telling me to upgrade, and I keep getting back unwanted viruses. Each time I try to reinstall or upgrade firefox, all it does continuously is reinstall the old version I had previously.

== Firefox Upgraded Their Browsers

Say i try to open a pdf link for example (although not limited to) and Firefox stops responding; if i close the browser and open it again, it will attempt to reload the same page that just locked it up. How do i turn this off? I get the "Well, this is embarrassing." error fairly often (after 'end task'-ing twice) :/

Firefox help said McAfee can change preferences, but when I clicked on the link it provided in response to that problem (the link said ``Pop-up Blocker), it didn't discuss the anti-virus issue. I don't know if McAfee is the problem, though. And the problem of finding the pop-up box unchecked has persisted through several Firefox software updates.

The NYT home page displays correctly in Safari. It has been like this in the last two weeks.

The center frame is blank for about a half-page length, then starts to display the information.

I have the latest Firefox updates and I have been using it for a long time without any problem. It's running on Mac OS X 10.6.3.

Thanks, Ed

Nearly every time takes forever or hangs when I use Menu -- "Organize Bookmarks."

Other times, may hang during other ordinary operations. Often find "Firefox is not responding," and have to Forcequit.

THIS IS NOT A "SOLUTION" TO THE PROBLEM: "Jake Firefox user Yeh, I keep having to shut firefox down and restarting it because it starts lagging and freezing up, it's starting to get really annoying." Wed 31 of Mar, 2010 04:05 PST # This answer solved the problem.

I think you should remove the "Allow" pop up that shows up every time I visit a website even ones that I have already been to. Please LISTEN:....If I did not want to allow the current website to open I would NOT have click on the links or entered the info into the address bar. Please remove the "allow" feature from your services. Other than that Firefox is great.

When using "Send Link" in Firefox 3.6.3, and Yahoo mail, the link appear three times in email body, all in one line, making the link useless.
