Fóram Tacaíochta Firefox

Recently parts of the text but not all the text on a webpage has started to blur or distort. Sometimes this distortion moves to the right. If i hover my mouse over the distortion or scroll the page it disappears. This is especially annoying on Facebook ect. I have not noticed this problem in IE or Chome but i havn't used either for prolonged periods to be honest. It's hard to test what causes it because the problem is intermittent, Facebook is affected the worst but have had this problem on other websites including this form and even in the Addon menu.

I have tried, running in safe mode, disabling plugins and clearing the cache none of which have solved the problem.

here's a screenshot of the distortion: http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/2128/facebookblur.png

i've been using Firefox since FF12 (now ff19) and every time i use a search function on a site eg winehq and select a link from the results then click on the back button i am immediately hit with the Document expired page and have to click on try again then resend regardless of the browser.sessionstore.postdata setting which is currently at -1, i have searched for an answer and it seems that many users of firefox have the same problem and all given the same answer to set the browser.sessionstore.postdata to -1 which clearly does not work. Please give us a way to turn off this annoyance.

Been using Firefox for years, just started having issues with it not being able to keep my bookmarks. Tried the entire help section for this issue, but it did not fix it. So I uninstalled and reinstalled v19.0.2.

Now each time I open firefox it asks me to Choose User Profile and none of the earlier profiles are in the selection area. So I create a new profile. When I close Firefox and open Firefox again, whether or not I restart my computer, the Choose User Profile box comes up again. But the profiles are in the folder location "profiles". Any suggestions?

firefox got slower and slower and eventually stoped running on my desktop. I tried to uninstall it in my control panel and it wouldnt.

I have also tried all the other methods suggested on your help page and I still cannot uninstall/remove. I need to do this to reinstall an updated version

what can I do ????? Remembering that i have allready tried what was suggested on your help pages

Thanks.

Hi,

It's only a couple of days my google drive is not connecting to my laptop, before that everything was alright. What's wrong with it, I don't know.

Can anybody please help me on this issue?

After my laptop crashed, I am attempting to retrieve my bookmarks off my old hard drive (which is now an external). Nowhere in any of the package contents or folder locations are there any of the file types mentioned in other articles (.json, .sqlite), and the only profile information I can access leads me to a blank backup which was just created as I opened firefox for the first time. There are no visible backups of my bookmarks ever being automatically saved, as suggested. So, after wasting a large portion of my time trying to do what should be the simplest of procedures, where are the old bookmarks supposedly stored?

I have downloaded the program (Isafe), a free program for protection, has features such as removing the Toolbars.

I has removed Explorer Toolbar, as soon as that is done,  movies site (xHamste) no longer operate on the Mozilla Firefox browser, while it continued work on Internet Explorer.
But YouTube continued  operate on Mozilla Firefox and not affected, is there a solution to this problem??

I can't find a way to update Firefox. I tried following what they say and clicking "About Firefox" but it does absolutely NOTHING to help... It tells me to recheck for updates online and ends up sending me to the very same screen that said to click "About Firefox" in the first place! I also tried clicking on the update window that pops up, but whenever I click on it it will get stuck and only say, "connecting to server." I hear you can reinstall Firefox but I CANNOT lose all of my history and bookmarks. Is there anything on earth I can do?

The error occurs when we get ads, primarily on Juno.com. Is this a problem with Mozilla Firefox, or with the ad files? How can I correct the problem?

I am aware I am not using the latest version of Firefox. Bases on what I've read I'm not going to like the changes in the latest version and do not want to change versions until absolutely forced too.

This problem occurs in safe mode, and with multiple profiles.

I have seen some reports from other people saying they have the same problem.

Before whenever I pressed ctrl+shit+t it would just open my most recently closed tab, but now for some reason it reduces Firefox into the hidden icon folder in the right side of the taskbar(next to the wifi and battery). Has anyone else had this problem?

I want to open PDF files in Acrobat Reader as it does in Explorer and earlier in Firefox. There is a support message about this issue but it is not applicable to me (wrong version?) When I go to Tools I can chose Plug in modules but there is no entry PDF. There is an entry Acrobat Reader but when I press Settings there is nothing to change.

My basic problem is that I can not save PDF-files as PDF when the are read inte Firefox.

(I have no idea whether the trobleshooting info below is correct, I used the automatic feature)

I have tried everything to fix my search engine tool in the upper right corner of my tool bar but have been unable to change, add, or even restore it to the default settings. I think I may have downloaded an add-on that conflicted somehow and changed my search engine and deleted all the rest, that would have been fine if only I could restore the defaults. I even restore firefox entirely to see if that would fix the problem, which it did not. The only other option I have next is completely uninstall and reinstall Firefox, but I really don't want to do that because I will lose all my bookmarks. Please can someone help me with this if possible.

Every couple days, certain web pages look all messed up (as though HTML layout isn't working; more like lines of text and no formatting -- Facebook & Huffington Post are often problems) or pages won't load content I know should appear (like Google Maps). Somehow I figured out a few months ago that if I clear the "Recent History," it fixes the problem. But I'm tired of doing this, sometimes several times a day, because I have to reenter passwords or user names on open pages. I did reinstall Firebox months ago but that had no effect. What is happening and why? (At one point, I thought it was a Java problem but I don't even know what Java is.) Can you fix it?

Bought new laptop & want to transfer favorite places over to new laptop.Firefox --->Firefox but if I did register in the past I do not have any record of user name or PW. A computer man who has since moved to MO, I think installed Firefox for me. I know the Internet and e-mail and a little excel, access and Quicken but after that IM not too computer literate for an old guy. Is there any way to find my user name and pass word on my existing Firefox? Or would Firefox have a record of it. I think it might have been 2005 or 06 when Firefox was installed. My e-mail is Sxxxxxxxxxx@aol.com or bxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx@aol.com. I could have used either one if I registered but when I was filling out the previous form, sxxxxxxxxxx@aol..com appeared in a little box when I was part way thru typing my e-mail address. If there was way to transfer favorite places in AOL to Firefox, I would then be able to get rid of AOL. Only reason I kept it was because all the US Sailors in our USS Grand Canyon Sailors Organization had my AOL e-mail and I was the treasurer for ten years. Older gents don't like much change so I left it the way it was. Guess IM getting the same way. One browser-Firefox is all I need from here on out. My cell is xxx-xxx-xxxx Running AVG, Malwarebytes and SuperantiSpyware My new Laptop is Windows 7

I have version 19.0.2, it keeps asking me to update but will never connect to the update server. Any suggestions? I've been trying here at work and at home, having the same problem both places.
