I can no longer reply or created new mail since hotmail.upgraded. It either goes to the box and quickly returns to inbox or stays in reply or new structure and goes not function?

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== they upgraded hotmail

Not sure when this started to happen - perhaps the last update but now the Baseball website and the Jay Leno's garage website's video will not play. They appear to go to sleep while loading. (The little circle goes round and round but never stops.) Other sites seem to work fine.

This happened

Not sure how often

== Since the last update??

I want to uninstall Firefox 3.6.6. because it does not work correctly! I am unable to uninstall using standard uninstall procedures. It appears many others are having this same issue!! I would like Mozilla to provide a solution to this issue ASAP! I used to love using Firefox and now it's just a pain in my @$$.

I have Firefox 3.6.8 and 3.5.4 in Windows Programs with Vista Ultimate. Can I remove the 3.5.4 in the Programs list without effecting 3.6.8?

how do I make FF 'remember'the last used folder in bookmarks. Say I book mark a film into movies folder and then want to bookmark another film, how can i get the folder called movies to open again until changed

When I want to bookmark a page, it saves it on the toolbar with a boring looking folder as the icon, rather than say the blue 'F' of Facebook. Why does this happen?

Can't use/send ANY hotmail attachment buttons in Mozilla. Works in IE

== This week when hotmail unleashed their latest fiasco

I have checked the option to warn me when a page attempts to redirect or reload, but some redirects are still happening without warning or approval. The redirects are solicitous in nature and hijack me away from a page that I was viewing without me clicking on anything. When it happens, reloading the original page sometimes results in another redirect but sometimes it doesn't. It seems pretty much random. I can only guess that the redirect is somehow imbedded in a banner or something - though I really no very little about how web pages work, so who knows. A few days ago I tried to reste the option by unchecing it and restarting firefox, and tehn rechecking and restarting firefox again. But today I got redirected. It's really a minor annoyance and it doesn't happen often, but I thought throw it out there. Thanx!

Firefox version 3.6.8 randomly opens new windows with the same web content. It's not pop-ups created by some malicious websites. This problem didn't occur with last versions of Firefox. In my opinion , it's a bug

== I downloaded 3.6.8 firefox version

After doing what I described in the thread title, Firefox 4 presented the following issues: 1- Tabs would not close. 2- The "forward" and "back" button would not be lit or clickable, as if I didn't visit any websites. Although pages did load, I could not go back and forth between them via these buttons. 3- the "feedback" button in the right-hand side of the screen was completely gone. Trying to download the respective feedback app that Mozilla provides didn't work, it wouldn't download. 4- the App Management screen would not open. 5- I did not save any of the pages from the previous session. So I closed FF 4 and opened 3.6 once again (wich appears to be functioning normally) and the pages came back

So basically my FF 4 got completely messed up. Reinstalling it did nothing. Cleaning the registry with Registry Mechanic was to no avail either. I had to uninstall FF4 since it was unusable.

Possibly useful fact: The apps I had removed in FF 4 were also removed in 3.6, wich indicates that maybe the FF 4 installation did not create copies of it's own for the bookmarks, apps, cache etc, so I am afraid to delete those when the FF 4 uninstallation wizard prompts me to, as it would also probably delete the stuff I have in 3.6 .

== Started after using Firefox 3.6 then switching to 4 again.

I'm trying to download a few files from one certain site. None complete because once the size of the file downloaded matches the file's actual size, both 'download speed' and 'est. time remaining' turn to 'unknown' while the amount downloaded doesn't stop; eg 4.0 MB of 3.0 MB completed. Is this the site's problem, and not an issue with Firefox? All downloads from other sites run normally.

My attachments won't load into my Hotmail E-Mails when I am using Firefox. Works fine with Explorer. Any ideas? It's only in Firefox and only with Hotmail

It seems that sometime recently I began having problems where there is no text when I hover over text or links. Why have the box at all if it is going to be blank? What's happening?

Hi there,

When Download items, ex: picture, mp3, movies, any files (doesn’t matter the file size) when it reaches 100% complete downloads it will disappear automatically in the download list and on the actual file location, I’ve try to copy and paste when the file reach 98%99% and I'll quickly copy the file, but the original 100% file will just disappear, it just happened 2days ago, was fine before.

Also I have been trying to relocate the download file and location, but it still happened, disappearing, so could not download anything at the moment, even for a small little picture.

Please assist in the matter, will be much appreciate, thank you very much! 

Regards,

Firefox support user

I have set up a long list of cookies to block, allow temporarily and allow. I want to transfer this to a second computer, but cannot find how to export or import the settings. Any advice?

Before today (when I updated FF) whenever I would close FF browser it would log me out of everything I was logged in to (ie. gmail, FB, Hotmail etc.) which is the way that I like it. However since updating my browser it keeps me logged in to everything, I have changed all of my settings so that everything is supposed to be cleared when FF closes but it doesn't change anything I am still logged in to all the sites. How do I change this back?
