Firefox Support Forum

I work online transcribing medical reports. Some of the time I have to run a quick search for information. Firefox has stopped blocking video popups. I read the articles about this, but I am losing valuable work time by stopping to write about it and don't have all day. WHY isn't there still an option to stop these? I'm going back to IE because this is frustrating and a ridiculous waste of time.

I decided to try my hand at creating a theme. I filled out all of the forms, uploaded the images (that were the appropriate sizes), selected the colors, was happy with the preview and clicked 'Submit'. The following screen said, "Oops! You are trying to do something that you are not allowed to do." I clicked the back button and re-tried, then received the error message that the theme name was already taken. I re-named it, re-submitted and went back to the 'oops' screen. This cycle repeated no less than 20 times. I tried theme names that were so off the wall, there's no way that all of them were taken. I think that it was failing due to whatever error it was encountering.

i install firefox in my new pc but in this pc when i try to download video from youtube the file downloaded is in 0 kb i try many application or addons but cant get success but the same application or addons work in my previous pc i have windows 7 the extension are Flash Video Downloader MP4 downloader and the 1 Click Youtube Downloader and the other option showing in addons is VLC Player also all the applications and firefox are updated this is the information i have and beside this if you have any other information required please contact me on my given email id

I don't have (nor want) shockwave flash, but it shows that I do in the addons. In addons it shows shockwave flash 12.0.0.44.

How can I be sure it is only flash player and not shockwave flash?

I triple checked that where I update at adobe.com is the proper place for flash player, and I have the correct version, but I don't believe it ever showed as shockwave flash in addons.

I read that there is a critical update for shockwave flash, which wouldn't concern me, except I noticed the addon shows as schockwave flash.

Is this a bug in how firefox shows flash?

Thanks for your help!

I opted in to be alerted about and download the Beta releases, but I'm no more interested in that.

So how can I opt out of it so that I will not be alerted about future Beta releases anymore?

Thanks.

A few days ago, I was presented with a bunch of random ads that would pop up on google and random articles I had been reading. I have also been having trouble with the connection supposedly resetting on multiple occasions, very often.

If someone will tell me how to upload screenshots, I can show pictures of the problems I am having. Thanks!

For about a month now the version of firefox on my work pc, the "new tab" tiles can no longer be updated. I can move existing tabs. I cannot add new tabs. Dragging a bookmark over an empty tile opens the link in the "new tab". If I accidentally delete a tile, it is gone forever. Firefox does not prompt me to restore it. I am running the current ver. of Firefox. I even uninstalled/re-installed to see if that had an effect, it did not. Windows7, Firefox 27.0.1

Hey,please I want a solution for this problem firstly sorry for bad English because I'm not English :). and secondly my problem is when I updated firefox for the latest version of now which is 28.0 and last was 27.0 I found a problem in Google which is when I press down arrow because I don't have scroll I found that It's scrolling down with 1 line or scrolling by title which means that it's scrolling one by one no with scroll bar like in past so please how I fix it ?! I'll send you a pic of the problem in order to understand if you didn't from my bad English :),hope I find a solution.

Observed on the steam marketplace (on activation some older tabs will load an item instead of what used to be a search query listing multiple items, page url changed and no back button available).

For example: The tab url was http://steamcommunity.com/market/search?q=RPG+Maker+card

Browser was then closed.

Sometimes when I come back to that tab in another session the url changes to one of the listings inside (a page that was visited) with no way of going back to the old url.

In this example steamcommunity.com/market/listings/753/220700-No%20Transparency?filter=RPG%20Maker%20card

Also note the %20 instead of spaces.

This happens to about 50% of my tabs. (I have over 50 open) I do not know if this applies to other website, but I would assume it would.

Is this a known issue?

there was a fault on a gmail address,I got the correct address &the first time I used Firefox without linking it worked fine now it keeps picking up wrong address,how do I get rid of gmail from Firefox

The home page is continually being changed and this last change is about the last straw. GET RID OF THE ANNOYING ADS THAT TAKE UP SO MUCH OF THE PAGE! THE APPLE AD IS A WASTE and just pisses a lot of people off.

To be specific and as an example: When accessing Tools, Options, Security Tab, a supposed link/box to click upon is supposed to be seen which states (paraphrased): click box to allow websites...(have forgotten exact language), but it the subject is in response to a "fix" for turned off cookies, etc. Any recognition? Hope so!

I had safari before, now have firefox.....firefox will only let me put photos from e-mails into "downloads". I want them in iPhoto, but they will not go from firefox nor from downloads now....unless I switch back to safari and safari is extremely slow and sometimes does not work at all.  ????????

I have tried updating my microsoft, my driver, plug-ins plus enabling and disabling them. I have no crashes in safe mode, so I tried these things and still encounter crashes. This has happened just the past 3 weeks and is so frustrating. Would not want to use another browser, so please give me some assistance or ideas how to fix my problem!
