Is there any way to make hitting the back button not reload pages? It's become a bit of annoyance to me within the past few days because it sorta messed with my flow.
For example, let's say I'm looking at a phpBB forum. There's a unread posts button next to each topic. I click on the one next to a topic, this topic has 3 pages. The last post I read was halfway down the first page, it takes me to it (and adds "&view=unread#unread" to the URL). I finish reading the page, and move on to page 2. Partway down page two, I decide to go back to page 1 to re-read something that got quoted, and click the back button. But because of what seems like a recent change, Firefox attempts to reload the page instead of its old functionality... and thanks to the unread bit at the end of the URL, phpBB serves up page *3*. Now instead of going back, I've gone forward.

Open Windows Explorer and right-click various file types. You'll see there's a submenu called "Open with" that allows you to choose a particular application. Firefox is listed for numerous file types it can't actually handle, like RAR and MKV.
Does anyone know why? I've never attempted to open those file types with Firefox, though I did download such files with Firefox. I can't find any bug reports about this, and the above seems like too little information to file a report.
I'm not the only one with this issue:
Firefox download of files not working or not finishing for one user on one computer account but does for another on a separate account.

Firefox on mac osx with automatic updates for OS and Firefox up to date for over a year recently started producing failed downloads (probably between 9-13 and 9-14, around the time of the last Firefox update). What has been tried to fix this: everthing from the Mozilla help pages “What to do if you can't download or save files” asserted to be based on information from “Unable to save or download files (mozillaZine KB)” with the exception of dealing with the "plist" file since that could not be found in this OS installation. If anything has changed through these efforts, it has been to cause the failure to be more severe. Before attempting any fixes, the downloads usually produced a zero-byte file of the expected name and an apparently full-length download file with the expected name and a ".part" extension (or an abbreviated download file with a jumbled alphanumeric name and ".part" extension). After all the fixes were attempted, with the additional trial of patching the profile from TimeMachine back-ups well before the initiation of the problems, and then a final effort of a complete Firefox re-install (freshly downloaded via the separate account on the computer then Firefox removed prior to a fresh install), downloads now fail for that one problem account producing only the zero-byte file of the expected name and no ".part" files yet seen again. Created new profiles in Firefox under the same computer account inherit the same download problems (tried twice).
FYI: in addition to the troubleshooting information below, the computer account with the Firefox problems reports another four plug-ins (Blue Jeans, RBlue Jeans and "install" for both). As these do not show up on this computer account where the Firefox browser has no download issues, this may matter. But since the download issues were independent of Safe Mode operation for Firefox, presumably the plug-in differences would not matter.

Firefox updated Keep checking on problems for script error issues and plugins hanging up games and have tried some of those answers. Using Vista. I refresh and reload and reload, sometimes that works, but ughhhhh! Sometimes it comes up with script error and sometimes it comes up with upgrade flash, shockwave and now it is saying loading game upgrade flash text and game doesn't load even when refreshing. Happens in Puzzle Charms and candy Crush Saga. I did a remove all cookies this last time now my facebook timeline doesn't show. I cleared the web content cache. I have done what it says to do in Add-on, plugins under Tools. Always activate Java and shockwave. I had saved a photo of some of these error messages but there is not place to add them here.

Hi
I have a problem with Norton Toolbar and this has been going on for months now. Norton Toolbar keeps crashing Firefox on my computer and another computer. It is doing my headin as i have uninstalled and reinstalled norton and firefox but problem still continues.
I have spoken to Norton for the last few days and they said they need to remote my computer for them to have a look why firefox keeps crashing but they cannot seem to find anything wrong, but i keep telling that the crashing happens on mine and another computer that rae using the same software.
Below is 5 recent reports from monday 22nd and can someone please confirm that it is norton causes the crashes so that i can prove to them its the toolbar not the computers itself.

The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments. If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection. If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
Cuting-and-pasting the same URL into IE 11.0.9600 results in the page displaying with no problems. Therefore, there is none of the 3 suggestions is the problem.

My firefox has started crashing a few months back. At the begining it was crashing once a week. It got worse by time. Now it crashes a few times a day.
I am running Firefox 32.0.3 on Mac OSX 10.9.5.
I have updated both my OS and firefox but it didn't help.
I have also read previous questions.According to some of the answers, I tried to run firefox in safe mode. But it still crashes.
Any ideas whatI could do?

I have always been able to download audio items from the ge.tt website from I. E. I've been having I. E. crash numerous times lately and decided to use firefox more frequently.
However when I try to access a ge.tt link, such as http://ge.tt?4v7Euyy1, the site will not load. The circle continues to circle and the message in the lower left corner flashes, "Looking for ge.tt and Waiting for ge.tt."
I've currently been waiting seven minutes to access the site, and am still waiting.
Have I adjusted some setting that prevents me from the site? I don't have problems with other sites I've tried using firefox.
Thank you.

I have the latest version of Firefox and Adobe Flash installed onto my machine, running Windoiws 7 Pro but when I go onto youtube videos will not even load and often firefox just crashes. All other browsers work fine. I also run firefox on my window 8.1 laptop and that also works fine. I have tried reinstalling Firefox, Disabling add-ons and running firefox in safe mode, reinstalling Adobe Flash, disabling the firewall, uninstalling realplayer - none of which solve the problem.
When trying to load songs on grooveshark the following error message pops up:-
"Problem Loading Flash
We had a problem loading Adobe Flash. You may have a Flash blocker installed. If so, please disable the blocker (or add an exception) and reload to start listening."
There are no flash blockers installed that I'm aware of!
I'm out of ideas and any help would be appreciated as despite this problem, I prefer to use Firefox above other browsers.
Thanks

In any given window (tab?) I used to be able to click on the upper right corner X and exit just that window. Now apparently that closes ALL open windows (tabs?) -- they are all linked together.

I have asked similar questions before - but do not recall the explanation given.
I had a Mozilla Support account going back to about 2007 or maybe even earlier.
One day I was simply unable to login even though I used the lost password facility.
I started a new account - this one - but always wondered about the earlier one.
Just now, by chance I noticed the password for my original support account is still stored in the "options box" and so I tried to use it again - -unsuccessfully - in going through the lost password process - I saw some words flash up about problems relating to accounts older than 2010.
Has a way to login to those old accounts been established, please, and if so How do I go about doing it as well.
Thank you - with apologies for being repetitious.

Firefox has been "missing" it's close button on the tabs, the back button, the menu, download indicator, pretty much everything except the address bar & google search bar. I've tried a reset and the F11 key. I've noticed that all of these things that are missing are present when I open new window, but after some surfing around, (regardless of what web sites I'm looking for/visiting), these things disappear. It simply makes no sense. The "missing" items seem to be hidden, I can hover over the locations where these are supposed to be, and for the most part, clicking will work. This is more of an annoyance than much else. Any thoughts?
