• CC2015 sync settings came back to very old settings

  I downloaded all the apps CC 2015 and replaced CC2014 apps. The sync settings feature asked if I wanted to download or download settings and back in extremely old settings.  A way to recover my CC2014 settings?  More than a year of settings adjustments were there. Any advice much appreciated. Andrew

  Synchronization settings CC could do being much more transparent - his strongly a black box for the moment and it is difficult to know what you found. These cloud synchronization systems only really work if we trust them with our data and for the moment, I'd be quite hesitant with synchronization CC settings.

  So that being said I think you're probably out of luck with get your old settings of 2014 CC to CC, there is not any way to rollback or check on the different versions of parameters. You the best solution is to copy manual on your old settings from a backup, its quite simple and the file exact locations depend on if you're on a mac or a PC.

  Then, once you have them you like, do two things. Save your new work settings folder and then create a timing of cloud to get your most recent settings downloaded - which should cover you in the future (although I'd be tired to trust it too much at the moment).

• I did a reset - all is kerfluggled! I want to just go back to the previous settings.

  I went through the troubleshooting and chose to do a reset. Now adblock disappeared, the appearance of firefox is different, the story seems to have disappeared, etc..

  I have the old folder of data of firefox - tried to create a new profile. No change.

  Can I just go back to the old data of firefox? I had the original problem is much smaller than the problem I have now!

  I think my confusion was to see several old Firefox data files in the same folder. You can try this:

  Open your current folder Firefox profile using

  Help > troubleshooting information > "view file" button.

  In the address bar of this window, click profiles to go up a level from its parent folder. You should see your current profile folder there and maybe others.

  Leave this window open, switch back to Firefox and output

  Copy your old profile of your old Firefox data file folder (perhaps one that ends by .default?) in the normal Profiles folder alongside your current profile.

  Click in the address bar of the window view of your profile folder, and then copy the path.

  Start up of Firefox Profile Manager using Start > Search box (or run):

  firefox.exe -P
  

  (Any time you want to switch profiles, exit Firefox and return to this dialog box.)

  Click on the button create a profile, and then when you have the possibility to choose a folder, open, paste the location of the profile folder and select the folder that you copied in. After completing your profile creating 'new' start Firefox in this profile.

  Your old profile back as you remember?

  Sometimes all this move files can create problems, and if you have been problems before because of your reset, they will be back, but I think it's the fastest way to get back to what you had before.

• Firefox goes back to the previous site, when I move the cursor.

  When I scroll a page, all of a sudden I find myself on the previous page. I think I can use a finger instead of two for scrolling. I do it sometimes to follow the text. But the slider can be anywhere on the page.
  I'm on a MacAir.

  When you open a tab, click anywhere inside the page, then scroll down.

  Your problem probably happens when the focus is always on your tab in the tab bar (band to tabs). Press F6 to switch the focus of the tabs in the page toolbar...

  Check and tell if its working.

• How can I stop Firefox to return to the previous window, as soon as I open a new window?

  In recent versions of Firefox, whenever I chaque fois que j' ouvre opens a new window, as soon as the window opens, Firefox goes back to the previous window, the one that was on the screen before I opened the new window. This is very irritating and not happened in older versions of Firefox.

  Any suggestions how to solve this problem? Thank you!

  FYI, this isn't a forum threaded, so answers are displayed at the bottom...

  DOM.disable_window_flip is a true/false preference that determines whether a script in a web page is allowed to change orientation between the windows of Firefox (in general, to be in front, or pop-under by making the window from which it was opened at the front).

  By default, this preference is set to true to disable the windows around Web sites to move, but it is possible that the setting has been changed. To view/change this preference, you can use the subject: configuration preferences editor.

  (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

  (2) in the Search box that appears above the listfilter, type or paste the flip and make a pause so that the list is filtered

  (3) double-click dom.disable_window_flip to light it between true and false.

  Edit: Corrected by the post below.

• Can I go back to the previous version of Firefox, before the last update?

  Firefox is automatically promoted to the 34.0.5 do not know what I had before, but I want to go back to what version came before that. I hate what spent my field of research. The only reason why I didn't completely Chrome switchd was the facility to change to a different search option. I could just click the dropdown in the search box and click the seardh option I wanted. Now, a new window opens where I have to click another menu dropdown to access my search options. It sucks! I want to go back to the previous version but don't know if it's possible. Any help would be great!

  You can return to the range of older search like this bar.

  Open Subject: config (typed in the address bar)
  Do a right click and toggle this false preference

  browser.search.showOneOffButtons

  Then restart Firefox.

• How can I go back to the previous version of Firefox to version 4, which is horrible?

  I liked the previous version of Firefox. Since I downloaded Firefox 4, my Norton is not compatible, my google toolbar has disappeared and I can't even insert a URL in new tabs.

• can I go back to the previous version of firefox noncrashy?

  Firefox worked fine. I stupidly updated on offer. now kicked twice. can I go back to the previous version?

  Hello Irit.

  You need to update Firefox 3.6.3, instead of 3.5. I hope that will solve your problem. Previous versions of Firefox are not supported and have known bugs and security problems. You need to update to the latest version of Firefox, for maximum stability, performance, security and ease of use. You can get it for free, as always, to www.getfirefox.com. Firefox 3.5 is still supported, you can continue to use it, if you wish. I do not recommend it, however.

  If the update does not solve your problems, you have a problem with an extension or plugin that is an obstacle to the normal behavior of your Firefox. Have you tried to disable all add-ons (just to see) to see if Firefox goes back to normal?

• The safest way to uninstall non-strabisme - so previous settings restored?

  Hello
  What is the way easier and safer to uninstall NON-STRABISME so get him restore the previous settings?

  I noticed the button DELETE in the Menu-ADD-ONS, but want to ensure that my previous settings cannot be modified.

  I have now found to be incompatible with classical YahooMail NON-STRABISME, so I'm desperate to uninstall. For example, it caused my DELETE-MAIL button to disappear.
  
  Note that classic will work only on my disabling JavaScript, which could account for the above-mentioned incompatibility.
  

  P.S. FYI the New Yahoomail is so horrible, I feel paralyzed without classic. Not that this is the original classic (the classic meat version sucks as well, but not as bad as the tyrannical new version.)

  This extension should not cause problems after uninstall you it via the add-on to Remove Manager button. But if there is any questions later, you can open Subject: config and reset both preferences below, via the context menu for each preference. Once you restart Firefox the NoSquint remaining prefs will be gone.

  Q. where NoSquint stores all of its settings at each site?
  A. NoSquint all settings are stored in your Firefox profile, specifically in the prefs.js appearing in your Firefox profile directory. Preferences are prefixed by extensions.nosquint. Each site's settings are stored in the extensions.nosquint.sites key. These can be easily viewed in topic: config (type it in your address bar).

• I touched something and now the page up key goes back to the previous page, instead of a screen. How can I fix it?

  Normally, the previous page button moves a screen and the page down key moves one screen down. I hit a combination of keys by mistake and now the page up key load previous page while the next page button loads a page, I'll be back, mimicking the previous buttons and following. I can still use the SPACEBAR to go down one screen and the arrow keys, end and home work normally. The page of buttons function normally outside Firefox. What I've done and how to cancel it?

  Have you tried to close and restart Firefox or restart the computer?
