Advanced settings: Update tab displays any updates to Firefox options
The update in the Advanced Settings tab only shows the text "update automatically:' and a checkbox for 'Search engine'." It shows all the options concerning the updates of Firefox.
I realized that, because Firefox would not be automatic update as usual, and I was looking for a way to do it manually. I finished it doint with the apt - get command on a terminal.
Hello, in ubuntu firefox updates are fully managed by the operating system package manager (so there is no options to update the program itself in firefox).

Hello. I installed the latest update of Firefox and when I start a new tab page displays not now my google input line. I use Windows 10. Until the recent update (v4.1.01) each time I started a new tab the new page would show the google search entry line which is my default. Can help you to restore this feature? TKS
Hi, 41 of Firefox, you must use the add-on tab override (browser.newtab.url replacement), to make changes to the page tab.
Once installed, open the Add-ons (Ctrl + Shift + A) Manager > Extensions, and then look for the new tab override and click Options to set your preference.
Notice, if you want only the new tab to be the same as your home page, you can use the Add on new tab homepage instead.
You will then need to restart Firefox for all changes to take effect.
If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.

I have my best sites 'pinned' to the new tab. Since the update of Firefox do show that the first four sites (top line) and I can't drag/release those missing bookmarks.
I have just discovered that the sites are still there but only appear when I select the mode "full screen".
Is there a way I can restore the page to show two lines of pinned sites without being full screen mode please?
It seems that there is a regression with 39 Firefox on the new tab page. A bug report has been filed on 4 and the triage team responded.
I saw the same thing with the difference in mode full-screen during the test of this "change"; the 'missing' line appear in full-screen - but with the resolution of my screen, I could see two rows of tiles, the 3rd rank was not missing mode full screen.
Overall, I think you should try the new tab extension tools and see how you like it.
https://addons.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/addon/new-tab-tools/I use that in a number of my Firefox profiles. Profile where I checked this problem which has been mentioned in a number of discussions of the forum over the weekend that I use rarely - I use it see how Firefox works as "installed", before making a change.

I just updated my firefox Firefox 5 browser. Since a site Web that I am creating, ceased to display banners. Instead of the announcement, I expect I have a question mark in the upper left corner.
Adbock Plus is an extension for Firefox, is not part of Firefox, you don't have it.
https://addons.Mozilla.org/firefox/addon/Adblock-Plus/I see two banners and they are not blocked (they are legitimate)
'The street for your desk top' and 'it's time to go shoppingI see the question mark now you are referring to, in IE is see
[As] like [f] 12. Join to see what your friends like.Which is something to do with FaceBook. Appears in IE9, Google Chrome, Safari, all show the Facebook thing. Opera fails big time, nothing but a big button repeated (>) with an arrow.
Maybe the CSS code.

Update of Firefox, and now history, open tabs and bookmarks have disappeared
Hi all
I rebooted and Firefox automatically promoted in 15.0.1 v. All my favorites, history and open tabs have disappeared. I am running Vista.
I tried the solutions on the firefox page, nothing has worked. For example, tried to find the profile file, any file it.
Such a pain that all disappeared! Hoping someone can help. Thanks in advance.
First save your profile, place it in a safe place off-trail of Firefox (Vista desktop will do).
Download an official updated copy of Firefox (it's now 16.x) of

I only had this problem since update to firefox 25. I tried to reset the deafaults ff. He did restore the "undo close tab" for a short period. but when I quit and restarted ff I have the same problem again. I don't want to have to keep resetting to the default settings, because it's too much time to then get back all my preferences.
I had this problem as well, I couldn't choose "Restore recently closed tabs" as historic because it is grayed out.
I went to Subject: config und from 0 (10 is the default value), browser.sessionstore.max_tabs_undo to 10 and I set browser.sessionstore.max_windows_undo to 0 (including default 3) 3.
For me, this problem solved my problem und now I can restore recently closed tabs.

I hate IE this is why I normally use Firefox. I firstly close all blockers, etc., but it does not help. Ghostery is no longer watch what trackers found it - just a blank page.
So, how a (plain English please) of the Nations United-to do an update?

Since the installation of update of Firefox today, 11/11/2011, when incoming secure web sites I no longer have the display of a padlock. I still have Https. I wonder if the security of these barns is still OK.
The status bar is gone and the 'blocking' with it from Firefox 4.0. Safety information on a web page are shown by the Site identity button.
The former lock could give users a false sense that a site is safe to not to provide information to the site and showed that there is a secure connection that does not guarantee that you are connected to the right server. The Site identity button is introduced in Firefox 3.0 to show more complete information of 'identity' for HTTPS web pages.

Proxy settings to change since the update for Firefox 4
I had just recently updated for Firefox 4 and as soon as it finished downloading I tested and that he saw that he changed my 127.0.0.1 proxy settings. I changed it to "Not of Proxy", but when I close and return back on the Internet, the Proxy settings are changed to the number of localhost. I used AVG and Malewarebytes scan my computer from infection and found none. Anyone know what is happening?

Since the update for Firefox 4, I offer more the ability to save tabs on shutdown - makes more rapid access to these sites when commissioning the next day. Why this possibility has been removed? It was a feature favorite and saved a lot of time.
Firefox 4 records the previous session.
You can use "Firefox > history > restore previous Session" for the previous session.
There is also a button 'Restore previous Session' on the default on: Home home page.Another possibility is to use:
- Tools > Options > general > startup: "When Firefox starts": "show my windows and tabs from last time '.
You can set the preferences of warning on the topic: config page true via the context menu or toggle the value with a double click of the left.
