All of a sudden Thunderbird will not allow me to attach files to outgoing emails. When i compose an email and either click on the paperclip icon or go to Files/Attach/Files, nothing happens. I can no longer get a Finder window (using Mac).

I set Firefox to restore prior session on opening, and it was working. Something happened, and I can't get it to do this properly any more. For example, at

    http://www.iws.org/interactive_nestchat_allUstream.html

it opens to that page, which has controls to adjust vertical and horizontal position, but it no longer restores the results of using these controls on the page from the last session, and I have to go through this process every time I open Firefox. In the Options menu/General, I have it set to "Show my windows and tabs from last time", but it always goes to the Home Page setting, no matter what I put in there. How do you get Firefox to set to "no home page", or its equivalent? If you leave the space blank, it goes to the Firefox page. Is this one of those things you have to set in a .ini file somewhere?

This just started ... the email addresses I put in the "reply to" and "to" spaces on an outgoing email are red now. How can I change this back to black? I didn't make any changes to my system or to my email accounts.

When I use the Bookmark Button and select "Bookmark This Page" the pop up window to place the bookmark is incomplete. The right side is cut off and the buttons to select or add folders is not shown.

I have recently reformatted my computer to Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit. This is also the same OS I used before I formatted it. I installed the newest version of Firefox as usual. But after a few days of using it, I noticed that every time I download something or save an image it will always ask me to where to save my files.

Even though I have repeatedly set it to a specific directory. I have already searched this thread: http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/977944

There some posts that I do not understand, but I have tried the reset the downloads director, and last directory. I have also tried to make a new user, but to no avail, I still wasn't successful. I haven't tried uninstalling firefox and reinstalling it, because I would like to avoid this at all costs, for I think it's a hassle to all of my recently bookmarked work and all of my emails and work details in the browser.

Any idea on what to do to fix this problem? It's not a really big problem, but if you think about it, it will get annoying in the future.

Anyone has experienced this before?

P.S. I do not have this problem before I formatted my computer.

When Firefox is started, the circular think button continues to run, but the program has only started one new tab. When the Home Page button is clicked, program seems to lock in a 'Firefox not Responding' error message. When I try to shut it down by using upper right corner X, it gives two choices, "Wait for the program to respond" of "Shut down program". I choose Shut down program, and in the background a message saying 'Windows checking for a solution' although it never comes back with one. What I'd like to know is will Firefox save my bookmarks if program is deleted and a newer version of Firefox is downloaded?

Using Win XP Service Pack 3. Having problem with Scrapbook Plus 2. I was perfectly happy with Scrapbook, but when Firefox was upgraded to level 27.0.1 it disappeared. It is my understanding that with level 27.0.1 the only scrapbook addon applicable is Scrapbook Plus 2. Am I correct on that? If so, can anyone help me to find directions on how to use Scrapbook Plus 2?

I have copied the data from the old scrapbook version to a new folder- "Scrapbook Plus 2 New". SBP appears in the menu bar. When I click on it my four choices are:; Capture page,Capture page as,Create bookmark with ScrapBookPlus 2 , and Open sidebar. The original scrapbook brought up all the folder choices. With this new one I don’t know how to access the folders.

Opened the sidebar, but not sure how to work it. When I click on tools and then , scrapbook-orner offnen I can see the "Scrapbook Plus 2 New" folder and it has the information in it that I copied. I looked for instructions on how to use scrapbook plus 2 but was unsuccessful in finding any. Can anyone assist me?

Thank you for any help you can provide.

When I log into Gmail, none of the tabs have labels. But when I scroll over them, a small drop down appears and tells me what each tab is, (select, refresh, more, sort by newer, sort by older, settings, primary, social, promotions. Please help.

I have followed instructions in all the other threads and nothing has worked. I tried safe mode and that did not work either, I went into the page permissions and activated everything for that page and still no luck.

From the AOL News page (not my Homepage) I can sign in to my AOL email accounts. Once there when I click on 'New Mail' or other choices nothing happens. If I sign on to the same pages using IE, Chrome, or Google I don't have any problems.

 Thanks for your help.

With option "allow pages to choose their own fonts..." deselected, some symbols are improperly displayed.

I think I know what's happening. With the option selected, FF displays some symbol characters with the wrong font.

But, this doesn't make sense, since these symbols are not in any language font. None of them will produce the correct symbols if selected as the personal preferred font. So, it's incorrect to render these symbols in any of the fonts selected as my personal preference, regardless of status of this option.

So, FF should use the a symbol font for these symbols regardless of this preference setting.

When using Firefox 27.0.1 with minimal (less than 15 tabs) I have encountered a problem where the entire user interface simply disappears. By that, I mean that the content Tab Bar, Navigation Bar and Bookmarks Toolbar all disappear and are replaced by the "glass" effect of the Windows 7 windows.

Additionally, the web page that should be displayed also disappears and turns completely black.

This seems to happen after browsing through several JavaScript heavy pages (like Google Play) as well as sites with Flash and/or HTML5 video frames (like YouTube).

I recently reinstalled Firefox (12th of January) and am using a completely new profile, though I have reinstalled my most used addons and disabled hardware acceleration.

I have included the Troubleshooting Information with this post.

Thanks guys

I'd like to restore borders (or horizontal separators FF 3.6 style) between toolbars.

The following code doesn't give the 3d look.

1. navigator-toolbox toolbar

{ border-bottom: 1px solid ThreeDShadow !important; -moz-appearance:none !important; }

I'd like to get the look in the screensoht.

Thank you.

Hello everybody.

With Sync, we can synchronize our favorites, preferences, passwords and other ... But we can't synchronize our scripts (GreaseMonkey), or preferences of our extensions (accepted sites in the "No Script" extension, for example).

So I was wondering if there was a way to synchronize not our preferences or our extensions, but the preferences of our extensions (GreaseMonkey, No Script ...) ?

If not, maybe this request - if it hasn't already been asked - could it be reflections.

Thanks, and sorry for my english. Kesta.

Used to have the newtab page set for my tabs. After installing a program bing took-over. I removed bing but not the tabs are only mozilla's start page. When I change it in about:config, no matter what I put the same page still comes up.

Any ideas?

Hi guys, running FF27.01 on W7SP1.

I have a lot of tabs open and I set FF to reopen them at every launch, my problem is that FF hardly ever checks whether those webpages were updated when I reopen it....Opera, Chrome & IE do it, why not FF? Who could possibly want to read an outdated webpage?

So I did set "browser.cache.check_doc_frequency" to "1"(I tried all possibilities actually), now FF is kind enough to check whether the webpage was updated on some sites....very few sites actually.

This is a known issue from what I found running a google search and the solution was either to clear the cache when FF closes or to use Chrome...I don't like either of those two options.

This is my problem: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/754829

Is this a bug? Am I missing something here?

Hope you can help, I'm getting tired of being forced to manually refresh every tab :(

Hi, I have a Mac running Mavericks and Firefox keeps crashing most daily for the past three months and I get a "Firefox has crashed submit report" popup.

It is usually if I am playing a youtube video or a movie (more then one) at a time. Or if one video is loading and I try to play or load another. I notice if I "que" or pre-load a long video (more then 15 minutes), then try to play a new one it will crash.

I have tried the following solutions none of which have worked:

A) Uninstalling and reinstalling firefox

B) Reset Firefox (Help, troubleshooting information, reset firefox)

C) Turn off hardware acceleration (Firefox, preferences, un-check hardware acceleration)

D) Turn off "enable hardware acceleration in "youtube" (it now asks me each time if I would allow it to play)

E) Plugin Check and Updates are all up to date (http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/) I only have:

SharePoint Browser Plug-in (research)

Default Browser Helper (research)

These plugins are up to date: (as of March 7th 2014)

Shockwave for Director 12.0.6 (Up to Date)

Shockwave Flash 12.0.0.70 (Up to Date)

QuickTime Plug-in 7.7.3 (Up to Date)

Sometimes I get this as the "signature": libsystem_platform.dylib@0x4280

Again I have tried the above solutions but they have not worked. Any help or advice will be appreciated. Thank you
