Downloads of mobile Firefox instead of opening

Hi, when I go to www.metmuseum.org (which is the site for the metropolitan museum in New York), Firefox "start download" to open the page. This happens with all pages for this and other sites. Yet once downloaded, it will not open the page. Help, please!

When I tried on my Linux machine I got a nice website, but on my FF for Android and my Dev Keon FF OS, I have a website with CSS, I think whether or not the owner of the site develops a mobile Web site

  • How to open/download a file .java instead of open as a txt in a new tab in Firefox?

    Hello
    I need to download/open on my computer a file .java, but Firefox does not give me a box 'Open' or 'Download' instead, it opens the java file as text in a new tab.

    How do I download/open it on my computer?

    I guess that you are referring to a JavaScript file.
    Java and JavaScript are different languages.
    To avoid confusion, see:

    If the server sends the file as a text/plain then Firefox will open the file in a tab if you click left and does not download/save the file.
    In this case, you must save the file via the context menu or the file menu.

    You will need to click right on the link and use "save the link under" to save this file directly instead of left-clicking the link.

  • I trashed my mimetypes.rdf file to restore stocks of download, and now Firefox will not open because profile missing, please notify

    Until very recently, when I want to download a pdf file, it will open automatically, and recently, for some reason, it stopped automatically opening and just downloaded on my desktop where I wanted. I found the instructions on Mozilla if files uploaded but not display, displaying my profile and then folder to delete. I've trashed (different from delete?) and now if I try to open Firefox, I get the message that Firefox cannot open/load because the profile is missing. Please tell us how can I get the profile folder in.

    Thank you

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

    See "create a profile":

    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.

  • After you download the update of Firefox 25.0.1 Firefox does not open. Help! Thank you!

    I downloaded the update for 25.0.1 and he ran. Instead of restarting, I stop the laptop (Vista Home SP2, 64-bit).
    When I started the laptop again, I tried to open Firefox, but Norton Internet Security leader Insight could not check the update as a reliable file and did not allow for Firefox open.
    I tried to disable file Insight but got the same results.
    I ran Live Update to update Norton Internet Security and then tried to open Firefox again.
    This time this Norton Internet Security displays a message saying that updater.exe wasn't careful and eliminated.
    When I try to open Firefox, Norton now detects Updater 25.0.0.5046, said he trusted, but Firefox does not open.
    I want to save the history if possible.
    How can I get Firefox to work with recorded history again?
    Thank you!

    Hi iamjayakumars - I was not able to create a new profile, because the Profile Manager does not open. A message from Norton seems "Updater.exe is sure.", but nothing else would happen.
    But - the links you sent were very helpful, and I was able to solve the problem by making a UN-installing and then re - install Firefox:
    1. backup of the profile.
    2. download the installer of Firefox from Mozilla.org with another browser.
    3. un-install Firefox from the control panel (ensuring "Delete my personal Firefox and customizations data" was NOT selected.)
    4 reinstall Firefox.
    Firefox starts successfully with all my old settings and all the tabs I had open the last time it was used appeared as I had hoped.
    Thanks a lot for your help!

  • Firefox attempts to save a PDF file instead of opening

    When I click on PDF links Firefox tries to save instead of open them. It is so even if in 'Options' under 'Applications', I have all files of Adobe set to 'Use Adobe Reader'.

    You get the "Open/save/Cancel" dialog box, as if you always selected "ask"?

    When Firefox unresponsive to changes in the Application preferences, you may reset these preferences, which involves removing a settings file. This article has the steps to do this the heading "Reset download actions for all types of files:

  • My firefox always opens with the three tabs, that I used when I downloaded and install firefox. How can I open one?

    When I downloaded Firefox for my new computer with Windows 10, I opened Firefox and follow the instructions to put everything in place to operate, including checking my email address. When I finished this process, I had 3 tabs open. Then, I closed Firefox.

    The next time I opened Firefox, 3 tabs opened. The additional 2 were on the same places they were until I closed Firefox.

    I closed two additional tabs before you navigate on several times. However, whenever I open Firefox, the same tabs will appear.

    How can I fix it? I want only 1 tablet to open.

    You can find the homepage here:

    • Tools > Options > general > startup: Homepage

    Firefox supports several home pages separated by ' |' symbol (pipe).

    If you do not keep the changes after a reboot or have problems with preferences, see:

  • When I open a link that opens a new Firefox window, it opens 2 tabs instead of one. How can I stop this?

    When I open a link that opens a new Firefox window, it opens 2 tabs instead of one. A tab is the link that I opened and the second tab is just a generic Mozilla tab with links to 12 pages like Facebook, Youtube, etc. This tab opens on top too, so I always have to close to get what I'm looking for. How can I stop this from happening?

    Hello. Thanks for all the posts on this topic. I have the same problem, as described by the op. But, while I use Avast, I have NOT the add-on from Astromenda which has been mentioned. However, I have the SB installed toolbar, and it has been recently updated, 29/12. I suspect that it is the culprit, if this problem is in fact not caused by an update of Firefox (my tiles have recently been reset on new tabs, and I suspect that Firefox for this problem).

    I am ready to remove the toolbar from the SB, but prefer to keep it (Yes, I admit I'm stupid) If this annoying 'new window = 2 tabs with 'new tab' at the top' would just leave.

    Apart from the removal of the toolbar SB... does anyone have suggestions? I don't see that all recently added add-ons/extensions that I don't recognize, apart from the update of the toolbar of SB.

    Updated: 5 minutes after this announcement, I disabled the toolbar of SB and restarted Firefox. No change.

  • How can I configure downloads to save automatically instead of asking me to open?

    Recently I reset Firefox. Front whenever I downloaded a file, it automatically asked me if I wanted to open the file or save it to my computer, with save on my computer preselected. It was good because I almost never want these downloads automatically opens, and I love all my downloads to go into my file to download on a disc with a lot more space (not the temp on C:\ folder). The option "do this automatically for files like this in the future" has been useful for the type of rare file I want to open automatically (usually because it is a very small music or something).

    Now, every time I download any type of file, the guest comes back with 'open the file' pre-selected, and "do this automatically for files like this in the future" grayed out. So, on more than one occasion, I clicked ok wrong and opened huge files automatically after downloading (which resulted in their burst open same hours later and play automatically once the download is complete). I would like to be able to select 'Save to my computer' and do it automatically, but this option is grayed out.

    Available aid seems to suggest go to options > Applications and modify the action to the appropriate content type, but:
    (a) not all content types that I download are listed, i.e. .mov, .mpeg, .rar, etc..
    (b) change the action of the content types I (.wmv and compressed/zipped folder only) absolutely did nothing.

    I'm always invited for each file download, always preselected to open the file with the 'do this automatically for files like this in the future' always grayed out.

    I would like to change the way I had before, or at least automatically together all downloads to save in my download folder.

    Could you try copying your old file (the one in the old data of Firefox) mimeTypes.rdf file in your profile folder? You can quickly open the folder of your profile again by using:

    Help > troubleshooting information > "view file" button.

    As for the prefs.js comparison, I would look old preferences with or another of those words in the name: download or helperApps.

  • How to open the mobile firefox error console?

    Hello! I developed a Web site for android devices, and for my case Firefox exceeds all other browsers. But the problem is that I don't know how to open the error console, which is absolutely necessary for a developer.

    I've seen some guides like this:
    https://quality.Mozilla.org/docs/mobile-Firefox/Firefox-mobile-enabling-the-error-console/
    that seems rather useful. However, I can't open the "preference" as he says.

    Any suggestions are welcome. I'm open if you want to use the console via a remote computer, as doing the Opera or Chrome; or simply view all on the mobile device itself. I'm also happy if anyone knows how to open the preferences window. I use Firefox 15 on Samsung Galaxy Tab.

    Thank you ~!

  • I can't open Firefox, but Safari opens fine. Tried to download Firefox, but the new version is not compatible with the iMAC G5

    I use Firefox for several years on my G5 iMAC, running MAC OS 10.5.8. This morning, Firefox does not open. Tried to open it from the icon in the Applications folder, but does not always. Safari opens without difficulty. Tried to download Firefox again, thinking a file might have been corrupted, but new version is not compatible with my hardware of desktop computers. I find a compatible version of Firefox? My NAV for MAC security software is not interfering.

    For a non-official Firefox 4 compatible version (TenFourFox) which works on Mac PowerPC with OS X 10.4.11 or OS X 10.5.8, you can consult:

    Firefox 3.6.x (Mac OS X 10.4 and later versions) can be found here:
