Firefox-Hilfeforum

When I updated Mozilla all the information I had syncronized was erased therefore I can't set up the sync again with all the information I had. I'ts like all the sync info was already deleted from the browser after the update. I'd like to recover all that info because was really important and it was a lot. Thanks

Update 35 has just messed up my puter! running XP Pro with and older graphic card (NO DRIVER UPDATES AVAIL) reinstalled OS last year with great difficulty but finally got it running without issues but this latest update has blocked my Nvida graphics driver and now clicking on web pic's will not enlarge!, tested on IE and it works so it's definitely a Firefox issue and it started yesterday after I downloaded the latest update 35 Everything else appears to be working, so far? This is a mess trouble shooting page had no fix other than to update driverI cannot upgrade the driver as a fix!! I am not techie enough to understand the other suggestions and will not mess with what I don't understand. Why would Mozilla install and update with no options knowing there are still users running older software without a fix/uninstal/or the ability to disable blocking. Help please!!!

Ever since some update, Firefox won't load Vines or Tumblr videos, but load YouTube videos, Facebook videos, and pretty much everything else. I've disabled hardware acceleration, addons, and tried most (if not every) solution given here.

I have a tab bar activated. Bookmarks are available from menu and from left side bar but doesn't exist on a tab bar!!!! WHY ???? My firefox is updated, bookmarks are imported from chrome. What shuold I do to bring them back to my bokkmarks bar

I have no problem dragging the standard Firefox window, but I cannot drag Private Windows. Title bar is there, so that is not the issue. This started with the latest version (35.0).

Firefox has been freezing constantly for the past 2 days on my Mac Pro, Mac OS 10.8.5, Firefox 35

Have tried the following :

1. Fresh Install 2. Downgrade to firefox 34 3. Closing & unpinning certain tabs 4. Refresh

However ultimately there will come a point where the app will freeze and cease up - consistently when it asks for the master password.

Turning off the master password function has helped but entering back into preferences will crash the app again.

Its not generating crash reports and I was only able to find this possible reference in Console

18/01/2015 21:47:31.000 kernel[0]: firefox (map: 0xffffff801fc1d308) triggered DYLD shared region unnest for map: 0xffffff801fc1d308, region 0x7fff96200000->0x7fff96400000. While not abnormal for debuggers, this increases system memory footprint until the target exits.

Please advise on what I can do to fix the problem.

I enjoy playing Flash based browser games but they've been running slow recently. I opened my computer's task manager to see what was going on and noticed that as I kept playing, the amount of RAM being used by Flash kept going up. All the way to 1.5 GB of RAM. I think that flash is saving pieces of game data that are not necessary. Anyone know how to make it stop doing that?

Until this latest firefox version 35, I could right-click on a tab, select "Recently closed tabs", and then pick a site that I had closed out.

Now, all I see is a small square box in the upper right corner of that option. When I click on "Recently Closed Tabs", nothing happens.

What do I need to do to get "recently closed tabs" to work?

Videos, like mp4 Vines, won't play in Firefox. Same with the media files like podcasts in rss feeds. All used to work fine. This is an intermittent problem with Firefox ( might be due to updates ) but it doesn't happen with IE or Chrome

If i uninstall VLC player or disable the VLC plugin, nothing happens If i have those installed but the VLC plugin is set to " Never activate ", i can right click on the video image, click " Play " and it opens in VLC player and works perfectly. If i have the plugin set to " always activate " then i see a black square and the message " the video can't be played because the file is corrupt "

Windows 8.1, Firefox 35.

This is an issue with Firefox and needs to be resolved.

In both versions 34. and 35. when I go to any Google site I get a pop-up box "Opening" with a message about opening 'application/octet-stream' and asking what should Firefox do with it. This never happened to me in version 33. and I have scoured the message boards looking for others reporting this problem but can't find it so must be something with my system config but I don't know how to troubleshoot it. Running Windows 8.1, Kaspersky virus protection on a Dell Envy AMD A10 processor ... I like Firefox and don't want to stay on version 33 so any help is appreciated.

После обновления, в панели поиска (рядом с адресной строкой), я больше не могу видеть какой поисковик используется по умолчанию. Раньше я мог одной мышкой в пару кликов выбрать другой поисковик или точно также открыть нужный поисковик на уже открытой другой странице. Сейчас это ужас, не видно ничего, какой поисковик используется, как мне открыть другой поисковик... Помогите решить проблему, так как это один из наибольших плюсов, из-за которого я пользуюсь браузером Mozilla Firefox.

Since the actual firefox-version 35.0 is updated, some unusual problems with firefox can be noticed. For example if starting firefox with several windows and with opening the last session of firefox, the order of the windows are not the same as before and I have to close some windows to set them in the order as before. And if some tabs in a window are closed and I have opened them again, they are not opened separately one after another, but only one tab in which all the closed tabs are opened then after another, but the previous ones are overdubbed from the following ones. Only if the closed tabs are opened simultaneously, then all the closed tabs are opened separately again as before, but not at the same place of the tabs in the window as before.

When I started up Firefox, it decided for some reason that it needed to refresh or reset. It said that it was importing all of my addons, passwords, history etc. But for some reason, all of my addons are missing. Is there anything I can do about this? I'm on a mac by the way

All personal certificates for loggin on sites doesn't shown - empty storage. Sites saying "You have no certs installed". When I import cert from backup and enter right password I see window "Alert! ... imported successful", but no cert appears at "View certs" - Personal. When I do enter wrong pass importing cert I have an error (so ok).

Linux 3.13.0-44-generic #73-Ubuntu SMP Tue Dec 16 00:23:46 UTC 2014 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux Any ideas? Thanks!

For some reason, I'm only having this problem on my work computer, not at home, even though as far as I know I'm running the same version of Firefox and most of the same extensions (both computers are running Windows 7, too). I have at least three different add-ons that include (or should include) right-click menu items--Pushbullet, Adblock Plus, and Open In Current Tab. Recently--and I don't know what changed to cause this--Open In Current Tab disappeared from the right-click menu entirely, and the Pushbullet and Adblock items moved to the top of the menu, above anything that's supposed to be at the top, like "Open in new tab". I can't find anything in these add-ons' options that's at all relevant; Open In Current Tab doesn't even seem to have options. I also installed Menu Editor, thinking I would manually change the right-click menu options back to the way they were, but none of these add-on menu options show up in its list of available options.

Any idea what might be wrong?

It worked yesterday but today when firefox is open, I can't drag the open window on the desktop. I can maximize it, minimize it and close it but I can't drag/move the window. I am on a mac.

The page isn't redirecting properly

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

   This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

I have enabled cookies. But cannot check my gmail email.

Fresh install of Windows 7 x64.

First program I install is Firefox .. and I haven't had time in the past three weeks to install anything else.

Every time Firefox has updated these past few weeks, the default search engine keeps getting reset to Yahoo. If this is part of the deal with Yahoo Search, then I for one am history; I will use Chrome rather than Firefox, although I will miss it terribly. I do not like having to go make adjustments every time I install a Firefox update.
