If you go to nike.com, there is a search bar on top that allows you to search for different products like "Boots," but when you press enter, nothing happens. I'm pretty sure this use to work and i tried it with chrome, which also doesn't work; however, this feature works fine with IE11.
There is also an issue with the rewards link on bankofamerica.com after you login to your account. Again this doesnt work for chrome but IE11 works fine.
Anyone else have this problem?
Firefox
Why is it that my version of Firefox (Firefox 30.0 / Lubuntu 13.10) cannot update itself?
I just updated Firefox from 33 to 36 on Windows XP Pro SP2. It took about 5 minutes. My Linux version 30 nags me about it being old and should be updated but there is no … (read more)
I just updated Firefox from 33 to 36 on Windows XP Pro SP2. It took about 5 minutes. My Linux version 30 nags me about it being old and should be updated but there is no update available apart from "firefox-36.0.tar.bz2". Why can't Linux be as straightforward as Windows? This situation is extremely irritating. While I'm on the subject of irritation, there's the question of the Adobe Flash plugin. The problem even appears on the Mozilla website. Haven't you got a solution?
PS I just realised that I was using User Agent Overrider but it appears to make no difference to the question.

I installed FF 36.0 yesterday afternoon. Since then FF is a) slow to start - over a minute, b) slow to respond (same delay) when clicking a link in another program such as TBird. I have executed a refresh and cleared all cache and history. Still same problem even asterf numerous exits via the approved mechanism and restarts of Windows 7. THis is becoming annoying and time wasting. I also set the Norton Firewall setting for FF from Auto to Allow. Doesn't help

I usually save my open tabs when I close firefox. If I'm signed in yahoo I am automatically signed out and at firefox restart I am at the yahoo sign in page. After updating to ff 36 I find myself logged in yahoo at ff restart.
I have unticked the option to keep me signed in at the yahoo start-up page, so this is a very serious thing security-wise. Imagine I am in an internet cafe checking my emails and there is a power cut. I have no way to sign out and the next user will find yahoo signed in to my account.
I don't want to have firefox deleting cookies every time I use it, or checking every browser I am using of what the settings are. And even if I do, it still won't resolve the issue posed in the above scenario.
Any advice plz?

For about a month or so Firefox has been crashing constantly. At first I'd get errors about the plug-in container. Someone suggested deleting that, but it didn't solve the problem. I've removed and reinstalled both Firefox and flash but that didn't fix it. Although I don't get errors about the plug-in container anymore, now it often just freezes, or it will tell me that firefox has crashed.
I've tried most of the other remedies that were suggested on this forum. I toggled hardware acceleration, I've updated my graphics card drivers, I've re-installed without all the plug-ins.
Now that I reinstalled there doesn't seem to be any record of crash reports either, even though it has crashed 4-5 times since the reinstall. Do I need to do something to enable crash reports?
Thanks for any help you can give!!

I use profile option "When I open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately" = yes (check marked)
Middle clicking on a search suggestion in the Search Bar does open a new tab but Firefox does not switch to it.
This feature used to work for many years until very recently.
Anybody have any ideas?

I am using FF36 and attempting to create new Sync account. I am using a valid email account that is working. I have requested a confirming email multiple times over the last couple of days so I can validate the account. Nothing. I added mozilla as trusted. I checked all trash, junk, and spam files. Email not misplaced, Just not recieved. I even turned off zonealarm for a while to see if firewall might be blocking. Still no email from Mozilla.
I was amazed to get an email allowing me to set up this account. I cannot imagine why this worked but Sync email won't get through.

I use the FF desktop browser but wish to access to mobile view of some website. Ideally this would be possibly on a by-tab basis.
I'm aware of the user agent switcher but find it cumbersome having to manually define a user agent for every website.
Thanks a lot for your suggestions.

Does anyone know what that could be from?

After a hard drive crash I was reinstalling Firefox (without good backup). I moved "Recent Tags" from between the default separators above the Bookmarks Menu area, and find I now cannot put anything back into the space when the "Show All Bookmarks" box is open. Since the space exists, how can I make that space functional by putting something there?

Hello,
I've recently updated to Firefox 36.0, and since then (or around that time), my Outlook Web App stopped working properly. Some emails I can send, some I can't, even with one and the same recipient email address. I also cannot upload attachments, and sometimes there are problems downloading attachments. The error message for when I cannot send emails says there is a problem with the connection, and the error meassages for updates says that there is a configuration problem on the server. I have this problem in several WiFi and Lan-cable connections, but with Internet Explorer everything works fine. My laptop runs on Windows 7.
I've un-installed and re-installed Firefox. I've emptied my cache and deleted all history. I've removed Firefox from the list of allowed programmes from my firewall, and then put it back on the list again. I've checked my plug-ins for updates. None of this has helped.
Any advise would be much appreciated.

When I click the star to bookmark a site it goes into the recently bookmarked area of the library. I then drag or cut or copy and past it into a folder I already have in the bookmark library, but it doesn't disappear from the recently bookmarked. If I delete it from the recent, it also gets deleted from the folder in the library. What can I do to keep it in the folder but remove it from recently bookmarked?

The website is one of our local restaurants: Mainefishmarket.com. I was able to visit this site just a couple of days ago. Previously it had a www prefix, but when I try that I get a text only error message. Without the www I got through. Now when I try, it wants me to download: "Flash Player Update_10924i40814784-il345.exe" from http:\ files.red-1-small-button.com.
When I type in the maine.. address in the browser bar, firefox shows this address, which makes me all the more suspicious: browser-updatez.ru/?80&source=mainfishmarket.com.
Who should I contact about this? It looks like a serious attempt to take over my computer.
