Firefox asked me if I wanted to speed up my browser and I said yes. He proceeded to remove my customization, add ons. How to cancel this

He did save a folder titled old data from firefox

When you reset Firefox and a new profile is created and some personal data (bookmarks, history, cookies, passwords, data form) are automatically imported and the current profile folder will be moved on the desktop to a folder "Old data Firefox".
Installed extensions and other customizations (toolbars, Pref.) that you have made are lost and must be redone.

It is possible to retrieve the data from the old profile, but be careful not to copy the files corrupted to avoid transporting more problems.

Note that you can also try to solve the problems of slowness in your current profile.

    Yes, you can as long as you understand that you will lose everything that is currently on the phone.

    (1) settings > General > reset > erase content and settings

    That will make the iPhone as new.  Then, during the installation process it again once will ask you if you want to restore from an existing backup.  You can then restore the scheduled backup.

    I just need to click on "object > insert html ' muse and paste the code there?

    My video ID is video_background which is defined by the widget by default, I should change the code below:

    The site I posted has no video in there and I don't have the widget that Peter sugested however, you can replace the startup code Nacy O made (the black with bit blob going around it) and it should work... understand that a ve\ideo will have to be downloaded by your browser clients before they can see it, so it's another delay for them.

    The code you posted is the code of downtime and that seeks a DIV not called "intro" so no do not change his name...

    A mandatory opening text

    After 5 seconds, this block will disappear.

    Everything between the two div tags is startup code and replace you it with you video and then use the muse "object > insert html" tool to place on your page.

    The demo includes three bits;

    • the body or the div tag is the code shown above and goes into the tool "insert html".
    • a header code that defines styles i.e. the yellow background and text... cela goes in your location of metadata page

    • The final code is the timeout in jQuery you had but do not change the name to the background image unless you also change the name of your div to match... Nacy O put it in its footer code that is correct for DW, but Muse has no footer as such area so I used a master metadata slot to the same effect. The important point is that it descends UNDERNEATH other codes.

    Have a play with it and see how you go...

    Firefox has never used to do this. It does with our intranet and other external sites. I don't want to save the pdf file. It's very exasperating, and if it is not resolved, I will change to another default browser.

    A recent Firefox update to v 23 also causes our site Intranet https must be blocked. You must select allow. Whenever we go to a different page the same thing happens. It is hopeless and totally inapplicable. How to return to v-22?

  • My up asking me if I want to restore my Active Desktop and when I press Yes thinking it press I Yes. Any help will be appreciated and thank you

    Hello, I have Windows XP Professional on my computer at home and a week ago I noticed a new icon on the screen that says 'New Briefcase (2)' start. I'm not this letter from the computer where I can go and start trying to remove this or that and I would like to know what would happen if I chose to delete it? The other thing that has changed is the color of the background, it used to be the old blue startup screen and now it is white and a box asking if I want to restore my Active desktop. When I pressed yes thinking it would take me back to the old blue screen that nothing happens, so I end up going to the Panel and the opening of the office and when my old screen appears, I grow well and he is back to normal, until the next time that I start. What would cause that new icon to just pop as he did and why the white of the screen with this question? I did something that would cause these changes. Any help would be appreciated and I thank you for your time and your help.

    [Moved from comments]

    Hello

    The new Briefcase (2) is probably empty and may have accidentally created by a right-click on the desktop > New > Briefcase. You can safely remove. It is not necessary.

    For the question of Active Desktop, try this...

    Right-click on the desktop > properties > Display Properties > Desktop > customize > Web, uncheck whatever the page is listed or add a new Web page and uncheck the box, then OK your way out. That should disable Active Desktop.

    Then... Right-click on the desktop > properties > Display Properties > Desktop > select a color.
