Firefox-Hilfeforum

Whilst on FB a few days ago the page suddenly reloaded without any pictures although I am unaware of pressing anything in particular. Despite closing down and reopening they have not reappeared. However, when I log in via Explorer on the same computer the normal FB page with photos comes up.

When placing an auction on eBay, I cannot upload photos. Also, possibly because of the same problem, I can't see pictures of my friends or even my own profile picture on myyearbook.com. Both these functions work properly if I use Internet Explorer...but I would like to stay with Firebird for all my browsing needs.

I was in the process of spell checking a text for my next blog publication when I stopped scrolling too early and ended up adding a misspelled word into the dictionary instead of selecting the correctly spelled word.

The result is that now, the misspelling is accepted and I don't know how to reverse this.

How do I go about undoing the addition of the misspelled word into the dictionary?

Is the dictionary editable?

All I get's a blank page.

3.6.10 Windows 7 I have uninstalled, then reinstalled my printer.

Many sites, print just fine, but those with "peripheral" files like PDF will not print.

Examples: Ehow - will NOT print out right. Example - http://kb.mozillazine.org/Problems_printing_web_pages will not print.

btw - NONE of the solutions on that mozillazine page worked.  :(

Would this have to do w/FIREFOX? or my PRINTER? I don't think it's the printer, b/c printer prints anything from IE>

A few months back, Firefox would print anything. Lately, it doesn't. Not sure the change, but I figure it must be a Firefox setting. I'd be forever in your debt for a clue......

using ubuntu 10.04 (lucid). when navigating a web forum, the backspace key (previous page) does not function. the scroll keys are a little jerky too. i have both 'use navigation keys' and 'smooth scrolling' enabled in options.

For example, http://www.bpwcal.org looks fine in Explorer but in Firefox 3.6.10 the background color and/or image does not load. I did not have this problem in previous versions of Firefox.

this is the third time i've had this problem with firefox...

firefox hangs when trying to download images, files, etc. the right click context menu opens (with bookmark, save page, save image, etc options) but after selecting an option, save image or whatever, the actual save as dialogue box doesn't open and firefox locks up.

many pages say to open the download pane and clear the history... i can't do that as trying to open the download pane locks it up, too. as does trying to open any other dialogues.

the first time this happened the only solution i could find was a total wipe and re-install (simple uninstall/re-install didn't work... it had to be weeded out of the registry manually). the second time i just happened to be rebuilding my system, so i just did a fresh install on a fresh OS.

this time i can't seem to resolve the problem with uninstall and re-install...

help?

Internet Explorer gives the following options for opening a new tab: "When a new tab is opened, open: - A Blank Page - The New Tab Page -Your first home page"

On Firefox 3.6.10 the only option is the new tab page. If you click "close" a blank page appears. There is no option for a new tab opening your home page.

In addition, you cannot right click the home button to "open in a new tab".

Is there a shortcut for this, and if not, can firefox include this option in it's next version?

I'm interest in storing .flv files permanently but if the file is larger than about 65mb, the Firefox cache won't store anymore than that. How can I adjust Firefox cache so that it stores a larger file?

On some web sites a radio button or checkbox is available but Firefox does not show any outline or content for it. It can only be found by mousing over the screen and hoping that a text message such as "Click here to submit" shows up. In IE these buttons do show up in the normal way so it seems this is s problem with Firefox and not the particular web site.

This is on a Mac I used the "Plugin check" to make sure all the plug-ins were up to date. It said the Java plugin needs to be updated. That takes me to the Java page, which says that Apple supplies its own version of Java and to use Apple Update. Apple update says the system is up to date.

The plugin checker should report an error only if the version of Java can be updated. It cannot be on a mac.

I go on to Facebook, it says Foxfire (version 30.0) is out of Date. I go to use Hulu or Crackle and again it says Foxfire is out of Date. I go to mozilla Support at the top, left side of the screen it says, "Your Foxfire is out of date and may contain a security risk".

While in Foxfire to check which version is on my Desktop PC by clicking on Help then scroll down to ABOUT Foxfire it says: 30.0 Foxfire IS up to date.

I do use Google Chrome however my TomTom GPS will NOT allow me to upload maps on Chrome but works fine with Foxfire.

Also a problem, Google's GMail will NOT allow me to open any of my E Mails on Foxfire. So am I using the latest version of Foxfire or not.

IF I am NOT using the latest of version of Foxfire please provide the link for the correct download.

Thanks in advance ~ CuriousVirg ~

I have too many websites I visit daily! I like having them available at a single click on my bookmarks toolbar, but I'm trying to squeeze too many on there. Is there any way to stretch the toolbar vertically so I can get two lines of bookmarks on there? (Yes, I know, I can put them in the bookmarks dropdown, but that's too many clicks to get to the ones I use every day.)

the subject says it all... I hate tabbed browsing. HATE IT. I'm guessing that there's no way to turn tabbed browsing OFF.... Since I've been searching ever since I made the mistake of upgrading. (held off upgrading after someone decided the refresh button wasn't needed either) EVEN IE ALLOWS me to turn off those STUPID tabs... soooooo PLEASE tell me if there's a way to make Firefox believe there is no such thing as a TAB.

When viewing jpeg images on a web page, I often notice that images appear overly saturated, creating an almost neon effect. These images appear normal in photo shop, and they display normal in Internet Explorer.

It does seem to happen more with darker images.

I'm running Windows XP, latest update and Firefox 3.6.10. I would like to set GMail as my mailto application, but it's not listed. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox.

I was watching to see what links my computer was going to without my knowledge or permission. I found that Firefox (on a Mac) is regularly linking to these sites: secure.informaction.com oscp.godaddy.com safebrowsing-cache.google.com

It's only a nuisance, but becomes aggravating after several repeated occurrences while I am trying to work on sometning. My statement: Why does my "Plug-Ins" window keep popping up every time I open Firefox??? sums up and totally describes the issue.
