• I downloaded the latest firefox. What a mistake! Now I'm drowning in the pop ups! That's happened?

  In 'tools', 'option', 'content', I have audited block popups. It does not help!

  Do you have it from a Mozilla site? If you got it from another site than Mozilla, it may contain unwanted extra garbage. You can get the latest version here, with no extra baggage allowance:

  • http://www.Mozilla.com/en-us/Firefox/all.html

  Uninstall the one you have now and delete the program directory before installing the new. Would also search for malware.

• After update to Firefox 32.0.3 print dialog box will not apear in Win7Pro/XP after awhile, but a restart of Firefox will allow him to appear again...

  After update automatically to 32.0.3 Thursday last Monday on the computers of all of our employees and boss both Win7 pro and XP pro, we saw Firefox sessions that will not bring the print dialog box. The print preview dialog box will return but no button print or print menu to display the print dialog box. After you close Firefox and reopen the print dialog box works again for some time. Web sites that use boss and staff during a session are different and appear to be the cause. Firefox settings are at fault because simply restart of Firefox just solves the problem and no other web browsers or application has any problem with the display of the dialog box print at any time. Again, that has started on all computers as soon as 32.0.3 was automatically installed during the night.

  Thanks Guigs2,

  Our users done restaring Firefox so I couldn't get this info.
  Now, it seems that the issue may have been corrected in v33.

• Firefox does not ask me to change a password stored in the local password database when I change it to a HTTP SVN repo that authenticates via LDAP

  Access to multiple repositories served via HTTP SVN. Authentication is done via LDAP. Firefox is able to save passwords for pop up dialog boxes provided by the SVN server for authentication. Periodically, I change my password for LDAP in Active Directory. When I access the SVN rest once again, I have change the password is entered in the dialog box, but Firefox do not ask me to update. Earlier (FF 3.x), Firefox asked me to update the password in the stored passwords. With FF 7.0.1 it does not prompt me for that and retains the old password.

  Original description:

  Let's say that I kept the password for some sites. As time goes by, I change the password on this site. Now, the next time I connect, password manager offers to enter my old information. I type in my password and enter the site. Earlier (FF 3.x), Firefox asked me to update the password in the stored passwords. With FF 7.0.1 it does not prompt me for that and retains the old password.

  OK, I feel like a fool. Turns out that the HTTP Server was in the list of exceptions, but under his own 192.168.X.X IP address rather than the hostname of our SVN server resolved internally. I missed which I was looking for the host name. Once I removed the IP address of the exceptions list entry, the problem has been resolved.

• When I click on my desktop shortcut icons in the new firefox 4 I get a dialog box that indicates that windows does not find that the website

  I have improved the previous version of firefox to the new firefox v.4 and now all the shortcut icons I used with the previous version display a pop-up dialog box that says that windows does not find this website, check the spelling - address - etc. But immediately after this window opens the Web site loads. I tried to load the original site, delete the old shortcut and drag the new shortcut to my desktop, but Firefox always gives me the same message.

  See:

• small images on the sites no longer appear. I tried IE and they were there.

  On Amazon do not show small images on some pages. The titles are there, but no pictures that I know it's something to do with Mozilla because I tried the same pages on Amazon using IE and images appeared. I wouldn't change anything that happened all of a sudden. I tried d/l of other versions, but nothing worked including the Beta 4.

  With Amazon on display, click the button to the site identity (for more details on what is, see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Site+Identity+Button) and then on more information. This will open the page info dialog box.

  First, select the permissions tab, make sure that 'Load the Images' is set to allow (default selection should work as well)

  Then select the media tab, and then click the first item in the list. Use the down arrow key to scroll the list. If any element has the option 'Images of block of (field name)' selected, deselect the option.

  This should hopefully solve your problem, but see also https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Images+or+animations+do+not+show.

  Some add-ons can also block images, for example, if you have AdBlock Plus installed, make sure that you have not accidentally created a filter to block images.

• In Firefox 40 I can no longer click on the Blue Star and open the Bookmark dialog box

  When the current page already contains a bookmark, this one by pressing Ctrl + D also does absolutely nothing.

  Fix regressions. Please add automated tests to catch these regressions in the future.

  Thank you very much for all of your volunteer work very hard on the browser.

  Hi WalterGR, for me, 40 Firefox works in the same way as previous versions. One click adds a bookmark in the bookmarks unordered folder (you see the animation of the star in the list). A second click opens the Panel to modify bookmark. CTRL + d also works normally.

  Could test you mode without failure of Firefox? It is a standard diagnostic tool to disable some advanced features of Firefox and extensions. More info: questions to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode.

  Does not work if Firefox: Hold down the SHIFT key when you start Firefox.

  If Firefox is running: You can restart Firefox in Mode safe mode using either:

  • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > restart with disabled modules
  • Help menu > restart with disabled modules

  and OK reboot.

  Two scenarios: A small dialog box should appear. Click on 'Start mode safe' (not update).

  Any difference?

• How can I separate the dialogue of downloads and bookmarks in the library box so I can see each one separately and at the same time as Firefox used to allow?

  After the last update, placed Firefox download dialog box and bookmarks in the same dialog, which cannot see both at the same time. I can't find any option to separate the two. It's severely cramping my workflow. Can you tell me how I can see once more my download progress in a single window and my favorites in another?

  You can view the new download manager in a tab by opening the words: download page and you can consider opening this page in a separate window.

• My last Firefox no longer works and I can't fix it. I use Windows 8. I made the mistake of downloading DuckDuckGo. He immediately took over as my default

  My last Firefox no longer works and I can't fix it. I use Windows 8. I made the mistake of downloading DuckDuckGo. He immediately took over as my default browser and it would not allow me to change back. I realized that I had something that I had not needed so I tried to remove it. It took a morning full of accomplish this chore. I went back to Firefox and found that my tabs were there, but they were opaque and would not work. In fact, you could read what was beneath them. No way to get anything wthout return to the start page of Firefox. I uninstalled Firefox and put it back on and it was always the same thing with the non operation of the opaque tabs. Troops you have good ideas as to how I can get my Firefox working again?

• I've added another email from my computer address, but firefox did not import bookmarks for the new email address

  I have firefox as my default browser (formerly, it was internet Explorer), and I use a total access earthlink as my sign-in home page and e-mail. I've added my wife profile to this computer, and during this procedure, bookmarks for their account are also imported. But when connect us with access, home page appears correctly for his profile of earthlink but firefox bookmarks continue to flow upward with my favorites and the toolbar instead of Siena. I don't understand why firefox is not recognizing the new profile with the correct bookmarks.

  Oops, I skipped something. To copy the Favorites of your wife of the PC to the laptop, you can use the export function.

  (1) export bookmarks in Firefox on the PC: Firefox bookmarks export to a HTML file for backup or transfer bookmarks

  (2) copy this file to the laptop (for example, USB flash drive, by e-mail, or however is convenient)

  (3) import file HTML code in Firefox on the laptop: import bookmarks to an HTML file

  Please note: in the knowledge base, you will also see references to a backup/restore process. Do not use backup/restore to combine different sets of bookmarks as it does a thorough cleaning before restoring. Only use import/export to combine bookmarks.

• In Firefox updated, my new bookmarks (Favorites) do not appear in Unsorted Bookmarks... or anywhere... and are not for editing when I double-click on the star.

  Used Firefox (and Xmarks) for many years without problem.
  Since the upgrade to the latest version of Firefox, I can't create new bookmarks. When I have a Web page 'star', it does not appear in the folder of Unsorted Bookmarks OR at the bottom of my list of unsorted bookmarks. I'm unable to 1) find my bookmark ANYWHERE and 2) double click on the star to change my bookmark.
  Why am I having this problem? I spent too much time quite several times now trying to figure out what was once a task fundamental, almost blind.
  Thanks for any help you can provide.
