Firefox asks me a key to recovery. No other device has the account.

I do not have my favorites, etc. on another device and I just installed a new operating system. I have my key to recovery. I am registered in sync but nothing happens when I click Synchronize now. How can I use my recovery key?

29 Firefox have the recovery key option. Mozilla has opted for a combo simple email/password to get rid of this pesky recovery key.

You need to upgrade your sync account to use the new server.

  • "Recovery to replace key" option is no longer available on the Web site

    So I decided to turn on notification of two factors for my Apple devices. From my iPad 2 is always on iOS6 (for reasons of productivity), he asks me a key to recovery. Instructions on the Apple site send me appleID page, where I can probably replace my lost key. The cool thing is that the option is no longer on the page! When I click on "Edit" in the Security section, I don't see any mention of the recovery of such key.

    Anyone else having this problem?

  • I specified downloads should always open automatically in Acrobat, and I want to change this now & have firefox ask every time again.

    Whenever I download a file, Firefox asked me what to do with it: open, save, in the office, etc. There is also a check box to "automatically in the future." I checked this box, so now Firefox will automatically open in Acrobat, as I was clear. But now I have changed my mind and want Firefox ask me what to do with each download. How can I change this preference?

  • Firefox asked a "refresh", computer locked up before finished, created a "old data FireFox file on the desktop.

    Firefox asked a 'refresh', I pressed the button refresh and process running, computer then locked up to complete before. He has created a "old data file FireFox" on the desktop. I need to understand how trasfer the data in the old file of data in my FureFox 'new' to allow me to access my bookmarks and other. Thank you!

    Hi Ken, Firefox will not start now, complaining that it cannot find its profile, or it starts up, but data are incomplete?

    Here is a procedure to return to your prior to refresh the data. It takes 5 minutes, but it's probably faster than the recovery of individual data files and those in a new profile from loading.

    Check inside the folder 'Old data Firefox' update adds on your desktop in a folder with a name random semi. If there is only one, that probably has your old settings and Add-ons. If there is more than one, you'll want to work with one who has been updated recently.

    Once you have identified the profile folder, that you want to restore, here is my "old profile resurrection suggested procedure:

    Overview

    Here are the steps described in more detail below:

    1. Create a new Firefox profile
    2. Delete all of this profile folder
    3. Copy in all of the old profile folder

    Create a new profile for Firefox (Windows)

    Out of Firefox and start in the Profile Manager by pasting the following text in the search box of the start menu, or the start > Run dialog box and pressing ENTER:

    firefox.exe -P
    

    Note: any time want to switch profiles, exit Firefox and return to this dialog box.

    Click on the button create a profile, give it a name like OldSettings and skip the option to change the location of the folder. Select the new profile from the dialog box, and then start Firefox.

    Open the new profile folder in Windows Explorer

    Firefox in the new profile should look like a new installation of the plant. Open the troubleshooting information page by using either:

    • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > troubleshooting information
    • Menu help > troubleshooting information
    • type or paste everything: in the address bar and press Enter

    In the first table, click on the view file"" button. Firefox will launch your new profile folder in Windows Explorer.

    This folder open, switch back to Firefox and get out by using either:

    • "3-bar" menu button > button "power".
    • (menu bar) File > Exit

    Firefox is closed, the profile folder must be front and Center, or you can activate it by using the taskbar.

    Copy old data instead of new

    In this new profile folder you just popped open - NOT the one on your desktop - select all content (you can use Ctrl + a) and delete (you can press Delete on the keyboard).

    Leave this window open, open or switch to your folder of old data of Firefox. Consult your old profile folder. At this level, you should see a folder named bookmarkbackups among other things.

    Select all (Ctrl + a) and copy (or right-click > copy or Ctrl + c).

    Switch to the empty profile folder in another window and paste (or right-click > paste or Ctrl + v). This may take a few minutes because some files are large.

    Launch Firefox

    Firefox should start in this 'new' profile with the old resurrected profile data. Success?

  • Had to crash my computer. Lost my recovery key. My iphone have paired with the previous installation. is it possible to recover the data?

    In order to upgrade my Windows xp computer to Windows 7, I lost access to firefox without thinking to generate a recovery key. Is it possible to recover my data?

    If the only thing you have coupled to the account is an iPhone response is that unfortunately not. Customer iPhone (Firefox Home) is just a 'consumer' of data Sync and can't do much.

    My best advice is to keep sync iPhone to access bookmarks and transfer it manually to your new profile.

  • Replacement drive hard need to re - install Win 8 no product key, no recovery disk

    Hard drive of my niece Envy HP dv7 is on it is the last step. I will soon replace it. Problem is that I can't find product key to win 8. I've read up and find that the key is embedded in the BIOS. My quest is: when I have reinstall Win 8 it automatically inserts the key from the BIOS? I also need to find a copy of win 8 64-bit to use, because it does not have the recovery disks. In the past, I found img copy of Win 7, 64 bit online and it worked fine. Is there an img to Win 8 64 bit? I think that the main problem is the product key. Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

    With Windows 8, Microsoft changed stickers that have the product key that the user must type in during the installation of the operating system of new embedded BIOS product key. The idea is that by eliminating the tile, you eliminate one of the easiest ways for nefarious users get a legitimate product key. The sticker also eliminating product key removes any concern that the vignette could get damaged while at the same time eliminating the long and irritating the process of typing in various letters and numbers in the installation of the operating system.

    If the user has to reinstall the operating system on a computer with Windows 8, the installation process automatically captures key software product of the motherboard BIOS without input from the user. This means that these stickers familiar windows product key will no longer appear on Windows 8 computers.

    First, create a backup of your installation of Windows 8 on an external hard drive:

    Then, create a repair disk:

    -Shutdown your computer.

    -Uninstall the existing hard drive.

    -Install the new hard drive,

    Boot from the recovery media that you create.

    Make sure that your external hard drive is plugged, plugged in and turned on.

  • Firefox ask you useless master password every time you start

    When he started, Firefox asks unnecessarily my master password every time. My homepage (Google Finance) does not require a password. This occurs in SafeMode as well. It's annoying and time consuming. I X-out the main 10 seconds password request window after I start Firefox. Why would he do that? ... Firefox not used to do this.

    You use Sync?

    The synchronization used in Firefox 34 version then use password manager to store the name (e-mail) and password to use to connect to the synchronization server.

    Earlier versions of Firefox used to store these data in the signedInUser.json file in the profile folder, but the current version only stores the sessionToken in this folder and need the password for the password manager.

  • How to make Firefox ask again me if I want to save a password for a website when I already said it not?

    I go to a website and log on to it.
    Firefox asks me if I want to save the password.
    I say no.
    Later, I decide that I don't want Firefox to save the password on this website.

    How can I make Firefox ask me if I want to save this password again?

    The Web site is not listed in the (Options-Security-passwords-Exceptions) list.

    I see that you always use the old version of Firefox 29.

    In this version autocomplete = off on the form will prevent Firefox to store the name and the password.
    In this version, you have the signon.overrideAutocomplete set to true.
    In Firefox 29, the default value is false, and in the current version this pref is set to true by default and will bring up the door hanger to remember the password.

    But you need to update to version Firefox 34 because Firefox 29 known security vulnerabilities.

  • When I open my browser he asks my Thunderbird password. I have isloated problem at the last versuion of Firefox by removing Thunderbird, still happens

    He asked my Thunderbird password whenever I open the latest version of Firefox. I deleted Thunderbird but the problem persists, then I tried the previous version of Firefox and the problem disappeared. It is obviously caused by the latest version of Firefox, any solution please?

    This will happen only if Firefox tries to connect to Sync or if you open a page with a form of (often hidden) connection and you have registered a password for the site.
    If Firefox tries to connect to the synchronization, then you should see the email address in the '3-bar' Firefox menu button in the drop-down list instead of 'Sign' in Sync (see also Options/Preferences > Sync).

    You can try this start parameter:

    • Tools > Options > general > startup: "startup of Firefox:
      'Display a blank page '.

    Try to start Firefox with the subject: blank page by creating a copy of the current Office Firefox shortcut and add a space and -url "about: Virgin" in the target field.

    Firefox asked me to upgrade my sound system & in the process, I have installed a Zombie and I can't uninstall it in Windows 7 via my control panel. I expected more of Firefox as a privacy feature!

    Sorry to hear about this, you should always beware of the pop-ups - never open or install anything, unless it is on the official website. Firefox has built-in features (and extensions that you need to find and install) to protect your privacy and security, but all users must still be careful with their browsing habits.
