• I've updated to Firefox, The Free Dictionary has lost some essential features, cannot get back them. The DFT now only works in English. What should do?

  I updated Firefox to 10.0.2 and lost the functionality of The Free Dictionary. I reinstalled TFD, but now it only works in English. Say I read a German Web page, highlight a Word, the dictionary will seek in the English Dictionary. Before that I had all the versions I needed, and the dictionary automatically in the right. And before that I could have the toolbar installed, now there is no option for this either. What should I do?

  Maurizio salute, I asked you to a problem with the free dictionary. I found the solution, which in fact was not technical. In case someone else has the same, that's what I did not understand: when I highlight a word in a text in a language other than English, the dictionary gives me an explanation in English, i.e. 'not found word', but when I then press 'Search', the dictionary connect in the appropriate dictionary. It works even in Chinese! So, problem solved. The dictionary is not as good as before, but still, it works. Best regards, Markku

• I uninstalled and reinstalled and Firefox for windows 7 does not open. There is no error message - it just does not, even in safe mode. What should I do?

  My computer is set to the automatic update in Windows 7 Home Premium and Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010. I am also running Norton 360. There was a major update for the office on 10-12-14, which seems to be at the start of my problems. This month, whenever my updates caused a restart, Mozilla has failed to open. I uninstalled and reinstalled several times, and it lasted only a day or two before it crashes again. This last time it is still not open. All instructions to solve problems appear to be based on the idea that the program is open and just questions. I can't even open it in Mode without failure.

  I tried to reinstall, and it says it will launch automatically when the installation is complete, but it does not work. As Norton scan every download before it works, I am not sure if this is the problem since I never get the window that indicates the setup step by step for Firefox.

  What should I do?

  Some Firefox problems can be solved by performing a clean reinstall. This means that you remove Firefox program files, and then reinstall Firefox. A clean reinstall is not the same as a regular resettlement performed using built-in installer. Please follow these steps:

  Note: You can print these steps or consult them in another browser.

  1. Download the latest version of Firefox from mozilla.org office (or choose the download for your operating system and language on this page) and save the file to install it on your computer.
  2. Once the download is complete, close all Firefox Windows (or open the Firefox menu

     

     Click the close button

     

     ).

  3. Remove the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
     • Windows:
       • C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
       • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox
  4. Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
     1. Double-click on the downloaded Setup file and go through the steps in the installation wizard.
     2. Once the wizard is completed, click to open Firefox directly after clicking the Finish button.

  More information on the resettlement of Firefox can be found here.

  WARNING: Do not use an uninstaller to third parties as part of this process. This could permanently delete your Firefox profile data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and passwords saved. They can be retrieved easily unless they have been backed up on an external device! See back up and restore the information contained in the profiles of Firefox.

  Please report to say if this helped you!

• Why does Firefox Mac returns 'Server not found' for a website but Safari on Mac same load site without any problems?

  The financial company Web site www.gmo.com will not appear in Firefox 32.0.02. Server not found is the only result. Safari loads Web site without any problem and Firefox for Windows computer in the House support the site without problem. All the other sites I have access, including banks, Amazon, etc. loads normally.

  What/why the Mac of Firefox version would not be able to to connect/load this site?

  The company of people told me that no one else has reported this problem and other people in my company can access the site. And they cannot reproduce the problem.

  My ISP provider could not see anything from their point of view. And access all computers to the modem/router in the House everything without any problems.

  Anyone have any ideas on what would cause this or how to go about troubleshooting?

  Thank you for your time.

  Looks like it's something on the computer. There are cookies that must be removed individually from the Firefox profile.

  To do this, go to the Firefox Menu, tap Preferences, then tap privacy and then delete cookies or cookies see the. You can search the sites that gives you problems and remove them. Restart Firefox.

  It could also be that you add a DNS server for your connection. 8.8.8.8 is google, but I don't know if this would affect given that the server is not found, not that there is no link, that's why it does not sound like a connection problem, but a cache problem.

• How is it, I'm not able to prevent Firefox to allow pop-up windows - up even after I get the address of the site under the heading security?

  I use Firefox on a Mac for many years and have been happy with it. I have recently went to a different trading called Trademonster.com platform and will have problems with its operation. When I call Trademonster, they told me that my Firefox must allow popup windows to operate. I notice that when I connect Trademonster on Firefox, it says «...» Firefox has prevented pop-up windows - 2 opening up." I spent under Security entered trademonster.com as site access and preferences, but I still get the signal that Firefox prevents pop-up windows from coming on the trading platform.
  Help, please.

• I have reset Firefox by following the instructions of Mozilla. How to get back the possibility to SEND a LINK through gmail that I lost.

• Firefox will lose a link in my Web page as pointing to the same folder as the page is in.

  I have a Web page with a link to another Web page. The link is in the form < a href = "http://www.sitename.com"target = "new" >
  In Internet Explorer, when I hover over the link http://www.sitename.com address appears at the bottom of the screen, and the page opens without any problem.

  However, in Firefox when I hover over the link that appears at the bottom of the screen:

  addressofcurrentpage /------www.sitename.com

  and when I click on the link, I get a 404 message telling me that this page does not exist.

  Why Firefox is my link for me address rewriting, and how can I get him to stop?

  Yes, you must use http:// instead of http:// in the link. Basically, never use a backslash anywhere in a URL in Firefox.

• Firefox keeps blocking all the links, I click to open in a new window even sites that are on my allow list and secure government sites. How can I stop?

  Firefox blocks everything I need to click on allow and on some sites I do several times that the Web page reloads the page for a new investigation.
  Very annoying... enough so that I can stop using firefox and not recommend it to others.

  Firefox normally a redirection to another address will automatically follow.

  You can check that the block of redirection is not lit? This setting is on the Panel of the preferences page:

  "3-bar" menu button (or Firefox) > Preferences > advanced

  Under the mini general tab in the accessibility section, uncheck the box "warn me when websites try to redirect or reload the page.

  If you have changed that, no matter what difference?

  If it was already off, it could be an add-on, or some security software or another program filtering that changes an automatic this intermediate page redirect.

• Is it possible for Firefox to remember multiple combinations of name and password of the user to a Web site?

  My husband and I use Yahoo! Mail, but each has our own account. We are constantly put in front and in back. Enter the full name of the user and the password by hand each time it's boring, but it's not fair for one of us to have Mozilla to remember the user name and password. It would be great if there was a way for Mozilla to memorize our usernames and passwords. No idea if there is a way to do something like that? Thank you!

  30 Firefox should be able to store more than one name and password to the Yahoo site.
  Firefox should offer to store the name and the password for the other institutions.

• My firefox is broken, doesn't load pages Web correctly, already filled every regular 'problem solving' steps, what then?

  Some pages Web opens in Firefox, but most will not. My google search bar is broken, and my bar of yahoo search that shows only the broken pages. The adresse_web bar is very little and will open just a few sites. Some who does not include google, wikipedia, youtube, and yahoo.

  I have already completed most of the steps of the 'fixing' issues, including reset, start in safe mode, uninstall and then reinstall remove completely. I added firefox to my firewall allow list. He has done nothing to help the issue, but lost all my favorites, add ons and preferences. I'll have to use google chrome just to get help for firefox.

  Even in safe mode, the problem persists. What should I do to get my firefox working again?

  Thanks for the advice, however another user on the forms of support has been able to provide assistance which solved the problem.

  I would add that by removing and deleting all the data on my computer with firefox, it essentially removed everything that you suggested and also himself removed from my firewall (which I checked before and after). The resettlement of fees and changing the firewall/antivirus do not fix the issue.

  Try to clear your DNS cache: https://help.ea.com/uk/article/how-to-flush-dns-cache-for-windows

  If this does not work, try changing your DNS server. It was the only thing that worked for me when I met similar problems.

  Clear my DNS Cache memory and restart the computer immediately solved the problem. I hope that this information is useful in the future to diagnose and repair problems.

• I'm not reset firefox just to fix the orange button. Bar menu disabled still no button orange. Have had this problem since upgrade to 20.0

  Firefox orange button was missing I upgraded to 20.0. I have installed since the next update as well, still no solution on the orange button. Research suggests to disable the menu bar (which is not a solution for me) I tried this, still no button orange. Another recent development is with the all in one sidebar... The only icons showing are "Display you favorite" and Google Lite. The buttons are still there, just no identifying information; No icon, no text.
  I does not reset firefox, to do this, he would need more time I can give. I would switch to Google Chrome, if that's really my only option. I use Firefox 2 years, switching back would be more harmful.
  Thank you for all your comments.

  Hi all
  First of all, thanks for the replies and suggestions. Realize that my original investigation has been awhile ago... but just after a few things...
  What finally restored the orange firefox button has been deactivate the All In One sidebar.
  That's all.
  Bit frustrated because I acclimatize to him, but not a big deal.

  When I opened a second tab in Firefox, it won't go to my homepage. Instead, it goes to a page that shows what looks like a collection of pages (or links) that I visited in the recent past or distant. I rather go to my homepage, which is much more useful for me. I tried to change that in 'Options', but without success. Please fix this.

  1. Type of topic: config in the address bar and press ENTER.
  2. Press the big button to ignore the warning.
  3. In the search bar, paste browser.newtab.url
  4. In the search results, double-click browser.newtab.url and set its value to any desired URL. If you want the Firefox home page by default, you would set the value to Subject: Home
