• Fixed a crash issue repeated with a new installation of Firefox on Windows 8.1 28

  It is not so much a question as a contribution to the solution.

  On a new computer running Windows 8.1 a new installation of Firefox 28 has been repeatedly crash or freeze ("no response"). Loading pages can be slow and scrolling in staircase. Totally unusable, especially after playing content with Shockwave.

  Although I had not installed the plug-ins outside Shockwave and Adobe Acrobat, I have had a look and was surprised to see that I had never asked. I disabled those I don't think I need:
  Intel's Identity Protection technology
  Photo Gallery
  WildTangent Games App alarm presence V2.

  Since these disabling Firefox works well. But I was forced to use another browser for a week until you find the time to research the problem.

  Why are these called not - for and of course (at least one) annoying plugins installed by default? It does not have any good Firefox!

  Plugins are not included in the Firefox download, because Mozilla is not allowed to distribute. Firefox automatically detects the plugins on your system through a number of methods, so it was a good idea to revisit and disable those you don't need. I have really no idea whence the special ones.

• Link new installation of thunderbird with the old profile.

  I created a new profile and stored on an external drive, there is a certain messages, I just had to reinstall win7 and do not know how to link a new installation of thunderbird with my old profile. Seems fair to get a host of issues that do nothing.

  Look at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profiles-tb#w_how-to-find-your-profile and then go to the directory corresponding to your external drive to find your old * *.default file.
  Copy your old profile to the directory where your current profile is stored.
  See https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/using-multiple-profiles to switch to your old GOLD "profiles.ini" edit profile to change the 'path' in the name of your old profile.
  Restart Thunderbird.

• My PC crashed. Restored on a new record and a new installation of FireFox. I can still access all the files. How do I take the old bookmarks if there is no backup?

  My PC crashed. Restored on a new record and a new installation of FireFox. I can still access all the files on the old drive. How do I take the old bookmarks if no backup exists, or has been completed? Does not save bookmarks of FireFox auto? If, then what is the file name and where is normally stored by FireFox?

  In fact, it can be easier...

  If you have the old drive connected as, say, drive E, go to:

  E:\Users\username
  

  Then click in the address bar and paste it after this and press ENTER to open it:

  \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
  

  Normally, you have only one file, which has a random string followed by "default." In this case, click on this file and find the subfolder bookmarkbackups.

  If you find multiple profile folders, look inside to find the most recently updated backups.

  To restore the backup files, see: restore bookmarks from a backup or move them to another computer

• Issused with several add-ons?

  I have trouble to install some add-ons. It all started when I tried to install the McAfee Site Advisor, and I thought that "Ok, maybe it's just a problem with this ' and whatever. I didn't know why he had worked on the family PC but not on my laptop, but I let it slide. Recently however, I was unable to install the Add on Amazon 'wishlist button' OR 'wish list toolbar. I even went with the 1.3 which is supposed to be compatible with new versions of firefox and still nothing.

• People with disabilities Add ons for the last pass and XMarks running Windows 10

  Last pass. E Web and XMarks modules disabled on my PC using windows 10. My Mac uses the last pass, XMarks E-Weband and it still works. Why are they add ons disabled on the PC, not Mac. I've used these all day and if Firefox will continue to turn off these three very important modules, I'll use another browser.

  You have posted here with Firefox 41, which is a Beta version.
  Is your Mac using Firefox 40 / 40.0.2 the current release version?

  Not all extensions are compatible with the preliminary versions, such as the Beta, depends on the particular extension and if the developer of the extension supports the beta versions of Firefox.

• I found a Visual bug using the latest Firefox and several add-ons, who do I contact to talk about?

  I would illustrate it rather using a screenshot that describing it. Anyway, I don't know what add-on, or a combination, but the first line under the 'View' menu bar element is empty, that's it - a minor problem. I do not know who to contact to display this glitch, is there anyone open to or interested by this feedback?

  You can attach a screenshot here in your next post, if you wish.

  We are interested, but you're going to have to help us. We are just a group of volunteers here balance our busy lives while offering support for Firefox. Since you already have all the addons installed, it will be much easier for you to understand who is the cause of this parasite.

  This is no easy task for us. If you are going to need know exactly what addon is causing this problem if you want to be just about that and give a decent chance to resolve this to the author of the addon.

  Since you have so many addons, I is advisable to disable at least 5 addons at once, restart Firefox and then check "Show" to see if the problem has disappeared. If Yes, then you need to focus your attention on individual activation & deactivation these 5 addons until you see the glitch to return. Then you know what addon to blame. I bet it's Menu Icons Plus or personal Menu.

• new hard drive - what is the difference in performance between the new installation of Windows 7 or a clone of old hard drive?

  I get a new hard Hard Drive (SSD).  The new disc is the same size as my existing SATA drive.  I can do either a new

  the installation of Windows 7 or a clone old hard drive?  I would prefer to clone the old hard drive and keep all my settings, etc.   It's empirical data on the performance difference between a new installation of Windows 7 or to continue with the Windows 7 which was 3 or 4 years ago.

  I know the conventional wisdom is that the new installation is faster, but, no matter who actually tested and compared the differences?  I know I'll get better performance of the SSD the SATA drive, but I don't know if it's worth the hassle to do a fresh install and redo all my programs and settings.

  Others that the performance of the SSD you should not see any differences.  If you do, you can always do a clean installation later.

  This article explains also on safeguards autobookmark generates firefox, but don't forget to perform manual backups as you work, it is very easy to replace the wrong backup set.

  Did you create a new profile?

  Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problems.

  See "create a profile":

  • https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/Profile-Manager-create-and-remove-Firefox-profiles
  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues

  If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a profile in the new profile, but make sure not to copy corrupted files.

  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox

  If reset you Firefox and a new profile is created and some of your data (bookmarks, passwords, cookies, form data) is automatically imported and your current profile will be moved on the desktop (old data of Firefox).

  You can retrieve more data from the old profile (be careful with this).

• My Favorites from a previous computer located in a folder marked of a star called "Favorites". How can I do a new installation of Firefox to find them?

  My computer died. I'm rebuilding my stuff on another old computer. I downloaded Firefox 3.6 on the new machine. I found that my old favorites on the old drive into a folder with an icon star yellow called 'Favorites '. I can see them all in this folder. I can move this folder anywhere. Where to go? Is there another place to search for bookmarks or Favorites backup? The old disk seems to be pretty much ok, so I can access everything that used to be there. The location of the Favorites folder is C:/documents and settings/ed/favorites.

  Those who are not bookmarks in Firefox, the Favorites folder is. Firefox bookmarks are stored in a file called places.sqlite in the profile folder. You can copy this file in our current profile folder. For more information on the location of the profile folder and other files, you can recover, see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox and https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Recovering+important+data+from+an+old+profile

• Why Firefox keep loading with the Add-ons Manager each time? I disabled all extensions and themes with nothing will do, loaded in safe mode, etc.

  As noted, google it and saw that it is supposed to work if you disable extensions to see if you have a problem (he was not) and use the default theme, it is supposed to make them disappear. Even ran in 'safe mode '. Yet, EACH TIME it loads the add-on Manager. Should I re - download?

  Do NOT reinstall Firefox. Think it fixes the problems, but it isn't really.
