I cant download youtube videos from my Firefox 3.6.28 version for my older PowerPC G5 Quad. I need to know the version of add-on, "YouVideo and Audio Downloader" that I use. I have never used this add-on before, not on my mac computer. I'm running OSX 10.5.8 and my version of Firefox version 3.6.28 is the only current version I can use. Appreciate any help! David Hill
FF36: Sites with background image flickers/flashes when going back to tab after 2 minutes.

Figure I'll mention this here as well.
When viewing websites with background images, such as twitter.com or my own website at www.markheadrick.com and I change to another tab for 2 minutes (this amount of time is repeatable anyway) I get a flicker of a black background before the page is fully drawn. If I have multiple tabs with the same background image, only the first tab will show the flicker. It's like it's loosing the image in memory or something. It has done this with Firefox in Safe Mode and with a new, clean profile. It has also done this with Hardware Acceleration off.
Windows 7 Pro 64bit w/ NVidia 550ti and 314.22 drivers. Newer drivers are more problematic which is why I have stayed with these.
Again, only pages with background images seem to show this flicker. Did not happen with Firefox 35 on my system.
I created a bug for it here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1137082
Thanks, Mark H

In order to force layout of my liquid website, I use i-frames to display content . It is all on my sight www.rdelutherie.com, and I am not displaying pages from other sights. The links to sections of pages from within the same page do not work in firefox.
I have had this problem before with named anchors, and in moving up to html5 and in making my site accessible for people with dissabilities, I started using <nav> eliments... and changed from named anchors to links to ID's like this:
In an unordered list I have these:
They link to sections of the same page like this one:
Subject 1:
Blah blah blaaaaah, and bla bla!
Last time I researched this problem (a year or more ago), I was told that it was because of a security risk (something about being able to count views...and other peoples proprietary and copyrighted material), but the vaguely described reasoning made little to no sense to me nor many others, who can not even link to our own stuff. The Mozilla developers were rather abrupt and some were even rude in telling us to live with it, instead of trying to come up with a solution or work around, and closed the post and disallowed further posting.
The problem still persists, and although I am not a programmer, I have a real hard time believing that it is impossible for Firefox to distinguish between links contained within a document and site, from those on different sights, domains and what have you.
As far as I know, no other browsers have this problem, so if it is such a big security risk, what is to stop someone with malicious intentions, from just using M$ IE, to bring their evil plan to fruition?
In keeping with "Making the web a better place": Please address this problem, and find a solution, workaround, or at least explain why it is impossible.

It seems that I was in a hurry and needed an answer right away. I could get the toolbar but the bookmarks section didn't work. I thought it was Firefox but it was Yahoo. After what those in the know here suggested, myself and others will have to wait on Yahoo to have a fix. After reading the-edmiester post I reread my posts. I must say to tyler, james and others, I apologise .

There is some kind of glitch going on with Firefox because a Gmail setting also won't work with it whereas it does in IE. But everything else seems OK except the downloads. It's as if all the files have been grayed out. They don't respond to a double click or to the open option on right click.
Skype or Latest Update causes Disconnects, Crashes

Have used Firefox for several years. Today I was forced to upgrade to Skype 7.1. Immediately after the installation of Skype, Firefox would no longer connect to the internet or load web pages (tab says "Connecting..." forever). Other applications and browsers work fine and there's no interruption to PC internet connectivity. After about 2-3 minutes of this, Firefox will crash if left alone.
After that, firefox.exe remains as a process and can never be ended. I try "End Process" and "End Process Tree" in Task Manager without success.
Firefox remains as a task in Task Manager forever, even when the browser window appears closed. If I try to re-open Firefox from there, I get the error "Firefox is already running but is not responding". When I click "Close Firefox", I get a new error message that says "Your Firefox profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible". After I "OK" out of that, I can't do anything but re-start the computer to get rid of firefox.exe from Task Manager...and then the cycle repeats.
Not sure if Skype is to blame as Firefox also updated itself today. I blame Skype because it was doing the same weird hanging in Task Manager without ever closing until I disabled video processing in Skype (and because of the suspicious timing).
I've tried clean re-installs, running Firefox with add-ons disabled, and re-installing Skype as well. Same behavior in all cases.
Any suggestions? Note that I'm submitting this from a different machine.
FF is removing my check mark from the 'allow sites to use their own fonts' box How do I stop this?

I need to allow 2 sites (so far) to choose their own font styles and sizes, but most of the rest drive me bananas and are difficult to read, I've tried installing 'Stylish' but that just offers a list of styles for specific sites (like YouTube and GMail etc) made by coding type people.
That's not me.
Didn't there used to be something that let you change fonts and colours when you had the site page open? There was a pane to one side that gave you a preview of what your adjustments would look like - what can I use like that for FireFox 36?

It takes forever to load any of the sites I normally go to, and it also takes forever for either of my e-mail accounts (att.net and aol.com) to load. Very often I am misdirected to the Yahoo Search engine, or worse it says "this page cannot be loaded," or something of that nature. This only started after Firefox installed that "hello" function, or at least it seems that way. This is very frustrating. I'm an old lady, and this is just horrible. What can I do to fix it? Please help! Thank you!

Hi The mulipart/form-data request is breaking with upgrade to Firefox 36. Says authenticity of the recieved data couldn't be verified.
The other part of the website seems to work fine just the multipart/form-data request is failing on upload.
On server side we have a CISCO ACE load balancer ACE 4710 DM Web Version A4(2.3) which has the certificates installed.
The multipart request was working with Firefox Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:34.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/34.0.
Can you point us to the right direction as to why this is failing. The application is mission critical for us.
