Firefox Support Forum

I play alot of games on Facebook. I have started encountering a problem with my "flash player crashing"... I have uninstalled all Adobe products and reinstalled them to no avail. It seems to happen more when I am using the games put out by Zynga. I cannot understand why it's happening, and certainly don't know what to do to fix it. I sure would appreciate any help you can give me!

After recent upgrade of Firefox on my p.c., I cannot connect to the Internet although I can send and receive email in Outlook. The error message says: Firefox is configured to use a proxy server that is refusing connection. I'm sending this from my laptop after Firefox just upgraded again. Too many upgrades.

Real Player video download option does not appear with firefox.

Hello, I need to restrict the use of Firefox and Internet Explorer to only specified websites that we use for business use. I have a problem with a number of employees using unauthorized and dangerous websites that have put my business computers at risk. Since it is impossible to police the employees viewing habits in real time, I need to restrict the viewing. How do I set up a list of only allowed sites that can only be overridden by admin privileges despite user accounts?

I need to keep the Firefox version 3.6.6 due to compatibility issues with other programs running on my servers. I've successfully installed this version but whenever I open Firefox I get this message: 'Your browser is out of date Upgrade today for the latest in speed/security.' I click on the No Thanks icon, however, I get this message every time I open Firefox. I have my settings set to NO auto update. How can I get this window to not display?

I want to find the plug in for chatting on this site SPCN URL listed with this mailer. Any and all help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

I deleted the one that I originally set (Works Word Processor), and can not open any documents until I change this setting to Microsoft Word. I get an error message saying "[file name] could not be opened, because the associated helper application does not exist. Change the association in your preferences." Okay, but how?

Just changed to Firefox recently.Why does the Firefox browser say I need flash to view certain pages when flash is already on the PC for IE. Is flash browser specific? Do I need 2 flash installations, one for IE and one for Firefox?

This happened

A few times a week

== viewing sites that need flash such as youtube

Firefox Sync keeps syncing my Personas between browsers which is somewhat frustrating since I'd prefer to keep separate personas on different PCs. I can't seem to find an option to disable this. Does anyone know of a way to do this?

I'm unable to print a page from web....pop box appears, asking to save the file. When cancelled, unknown error message appears. Other browsers ok.

This happened

Not sure how often

== within the last week

I'm not entirely sure how this happened but the lines for the address bar and search is gone and i'm not sure how to get it back.

Win2000 Pro SP4. Been running FireFox for several years. Ver3.6.6 since 03/22/2011. Got a msg window in FireFox stating important security update available. (ADDED INFO: Checked System Requirements of update and then...) As usual, I clicked yes load it. A few moments later I got the message: "XULRunner Error: Platform version '1.9.2.18' is not compatible with minVersion>=1.9.2.20 maxVersion<=1.9.2.20" That is it, NO MORE FIREFOX!!! How can I fix it and not loose any of my 'stuff'?

I have only recently noticed this problem, when I am clicking into my Show All History it turns out to be blank and my bookmarks aren't showing up either they show up when I click Bookmarks tab but not in my Library under All Bookmarks.

I have double checked my settings and everything is set as to how the forum help suggests I tried maybe extending the amount of time before my history got deleted I have set mine to delte in 5 days however when I turned my pc off the other day and I logged on to try and find something I had searched for the previous day by clicking Show All History nothing is there it is just blank why is that?

I hope I have explained the problem well enough because I can't seem to figure out why my history is blank

My operating system is XP. I can go to most of my pages without the "Unable to connect" tab. When I go to Microsoft page it displays but I will get the "Unable to connect" when I try to download Windows Media player.

I am running Internet Explorer 8 and Firefox 3.6.6 and have been looking at the following website www.finningley.org and on the home page there is a picture of an aeroplane that appears in the correct place on Internet Explorer but is over the text in Firefox. I have tried changing the resolution but Firefox always looks incorrect whereas I E is fine. What can be done to solve this issue?
