• Favicons

  Is there a simple way to install the favicons in the Sierra of Safari? Thank you.

  Hi GrammaLo,

  Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

  I see that you are looking for a simple way to manage icons in Safari. I understand the importance of being able to easily access your favorite sites. I can help you with this.

  An easy way to do it, is to pin frequently visited Web sites. Please take a look at the Safari Help Guide, specifically, this section:
  
  

  PIN frequently visited Web sites

  Facebook of PIN, Pinterest, Twitter, Gmail or any other Web site that you visit frequently throughout the day. Pinned Sites stay put on the left side of the tab bar, so you can easily get to them at any time.

  

  • Pin a website: Drag the tab with the site you want to pin on the left side of the tab bar. When the tab is shrinking and displays the icon of the Web site or its initial, drop it in place.

    You can also choose window > Pin Tab, or control-click on a tab, and then click Pin tab.

  • Reorder pinned Sites: Drag a pinned Site before or after another Site pinned in the tab bar.

  • Not to pin a website: Drag the tab pinned to the right side of the tab bar. When the tab expands to look like a regular tab, drop it in place.

    You can also choose window > unpin tab or Ctrl-click a pinned Site, and then click Unpin.

  Pinned Sites stay in place, even when you open a new Safari window or quit and reopen Safari.

  When you click a link to another website from a pinned Site, the other Web site opens in a new tab. Your pinned Site always shows the Web site as you pinned.

  All the best.

• Why the tabs have now several images showing after the last updated favicon?

  The last update for Firefox has created a problem with the tabs. The tabs now have multiple images of the websites favicon projection. When I open a tab and visit a Web site, when the favicon shows then it creates multiple images of this favicon. When I click the tab and then back on it, they disappear, but obviously, this should not happen and did not begin until the last update has been installed. I even did an update and it does not solve the problem. I tried to upload an image, but the region has just a spinning wheel and the size of the image was only 5,41 kb. Apparently that doesn't work so well either. It seems that Mozilla Firefox has created a few bugs for its browser and help forum.

  If anyone knows how to fix this or get Mozilla to solve their problem, it would be appreciated. Thank you!

• How to restore the my bookmark favicons?

  I have just reinstalled my OS and ALL the my bookmark favicons are empty (small box with a dashed border).
  Not only in bookmarks in the bar, but all of my folders of bookmarks. What happens on Firefox and Firefox Dev Ed.
  Not in other browsers.
  I tried the empty Favicon extension to restore; no joy.

  All the answers?

  Thank you.

  Try other:

  • Restorer of favicon
  • FavIcon Reloader

• Titles tab favicons are confused and do not stick to accurate data - how to solve?

  Since a few days now FF does not display the favicon and the titles of the tabs properly more. (see below for screencast)

  • Instead, a few 'standard' - sites appear in the tab titles and favicons:

   - google
   - wikipedia
   - get involved (firefox)
    - Firefox central
  

  • as soon as I activate a tab, it's favicon and symbol is updated immediately.
  • most favicons updateto their correct data, as soon as he gets in the background, it is erroneous data.
  • all titles to date for its correct title once activated. But againfalls at the time where to start at bottom.
  • in some tabs the favicon disappears completely during activation (including the placeholder for the icon)
  • also in mode 'tabs to group' securities favicons are not valid. Ironically, just most of them (some favicons are correct) - which makes it more difficult for me to understand.
  • in the group-tabs-view some of the tabs pins/apps favicons simply lack.

  empty the cache, cookies, offline, restart FF data, restart the machine did not help so far.

  As much as I love my history and profile of the data, I don't want to do new FF-profiles.

  I have not changed the configuration of AddOns in recent weeks, but off Sync a few days ago (because Sync messed up my favorites completely - as described here https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1023070 )

  Video of screencast:
  https://Flic.KR/p/qMVf2p
  can add screenshots, if necessary. But the video shows better behaviour in my eyes.

  It looks like it is caused by an add-on (which you have many, a recent update of either of these modules could be the cause). Have you tried to test in a profile of costs? Use the Profile Manager to create and delete profiles Firefox

• Why bookmark Favicon changer is missing from the list of modules?

  The bookmark Favicon changer add-on is currently installed on my browser [ESR 31.2.0] and it seems to work, although imperfectly. Yet the pages of the add-on (https://addons.mozilla.org/) do not list it at all, I see. What is going on?

  Yes, AMO means addons.mozilla.org. No, it's an unofficial acronym, like the SUMO is for SUpport.MOzilla.org.

• All the icons disappeared spontaneously (charging, home, folders, files exe in tabs, favicons)

  I use the latest version of Firefox (as of 3 October 2014 impossible to verify what version because I don't know which button to press - see question) on Windows 8.1. I did not close the browser, but all of a sudden all THE icons disappeared. If I click on the blank spaces, functions will continue to operate (for example I can always close a tab), but I don't see what follows: Reload, Home, buttons etc. Bookmark folder icons; No icons on the settings tab; Exe in the upper right corner of the tabs; Favicons.

  Hi mcnesium,
  Unfortunately there is not featured or add on even for that. [at least not for 33, https://addons.mozilla.org/mk/firefox/addon/favicon-picker-3/]

• How to use userChrome.css to move favicon and text on tabs 3px 2px left and

  I want to control the positioning of the favicon and the text that appears on the tabs. I hope that this will be possible using userChrome.css.
  Also, it would be possible to reduce the height of the background behind the tabs with userChrome.css?

  My goal is essentially to reduce the height of the tabs and the background behind the legs.

  Thank you

  You can find the code at the height of the tab bar in this file that you open through the address bar.

  • chrome://browser/skin/browser.CSS

  I use code like the following to adjust the height:

  @namespace url("https://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */
  
  /* Tab bar: adjust height - chrome://browser/skin/browser.css */
  #tabbrowser-tabs,
  .tab-background-start[selected=true]::after,
  .tab-background-start[selected=true]::before,
  .tab-background-start,
  .tab-background-end,
  .tab-background-end[selected=true]::after,
  .tab-background-end[selected=true]::before {
    min-height: 24px!important;
  }
  #tabbrowser-tabs {height:26px!important;}
  #tabbrowser-tabs toolbar button > .toolbarbutton-icon { padding-bottom:2px !important; }

  For the icon and the text, you can change the padding or the margin of these elements with these selectors:

  .tab-text {padding-bottom:3px !important; }
  .tab-throbber, .tab-icon-image  {padding-left:2px !important; }
  

• I can't change the favicons in the 30.0 version

  I can't change the favicons in Firefox 30.0 version. There is no "change/reset/remove/export favicon" option when I right click. In the 28.0 version I could do.

  Who has never been a standard feature in Firefox. Now, either the add-on that adds this functionality to your Firefox is disabled, or is not compatible with Firefox 30. Take a look at your extensions to see what you have installed and if it is disabled. If this isn't the case, right-click this extension and use find updates. If it still does not use the read... button and look for the home page (not all extensions use this functionality provided by Mozilla) and see if there's information support or an e-mail address to contact the developer of this extension. It belongs to every developer add-on to refresh their stuff and support their stuff. Most add-on developers do a good job in this regard, but some only provide the module further without support and slower to update as needed.
  If it is an extension of the popular "we" can hep you, but we would at least nine correct name and maybe the URL where it can be downloaded.

• Buttons on my bookmarks bar using the artisanal favicons, no names, and they disappeared - how to bring them back?

  In order to have a large number of available bookmarks my bookmark toolbar uses no names, just favicons, which are made mostly House. Stable for years, they suddenly disappeared. I have no record of what I have called every favicon - how to make a comeback?

• How can I remove the bookmarks bar favicons?

  I've just updated to Firefox 29... and it disabled an add-on, I am using for some time (deiconizer bookmarks). Is there a way to remove ugly and unnecessary favicons in my bookmarks toolbar in order to make more room for real and functional bookmarks?

  You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder currently in use:

  • Help > troubleshooting information > profile directory: see file (Linux: open the directory;) Mac: View in the Finder)
  • Create the folder chrome (lowercase) in the .default < xxxxxxxx > profile folder if the folder does not exist.
  • Use a text editor such as Notepad to create a userChrome.css (new) file in this folder (the names are case-sensitive).
  • Paste the code in the userChrome.css file in the Editor window and make sure that the userChrome.css file starts with the default @namespace line.
  • Make sure that you select "All files" and not "text files" when you save the file via "save file as" in the text editor as userChrome.css.

  Otherwise, Windows can add a hidden .txt file extension, and you end up with a file not work userChrome.css.txt or userContent.css.txt.
