Firefox does not account for my custom download location

Instead he always will automatically save a file in C:\Users\Username\Downloads\

This can occur if you specify the location of the root as X: / and not a specific folder.

In this case, the solution is to create a folder under specify to use this folder under.

  • Firefox does not account for single click and has double click for a feature need simple click as a bookmark link, enter in a text box, press a button

    Firefox 7.0.1 on Win7 pro 64

    Hello team FF & community.

    sometimes FF 6/7 shows a VERY strange behavior:
    While 'normal' things on Web sites (click on the links, edit text, scrolling, evolution of the tabs boxes) FF starts to ignore my simple clicks. The only way to work is with double-click instead of single-click (i.e. for links, enter a SBO, switch tabs, even to open a menu of Firefox) for all actions.

    Previously, the last example was about a minute

     https://plus.google.com/circles/find
    

    While moving to a "circle" contact - FF changes only are allowed double clicks. No errors, no message.

    I found this behavior buggy on many different sites - simple websites and with complex features, too - in the past few weeks since bf6 + 7 are current versions.

    With my other two questions, I get the idea that the current releases of FF contain more bugs in versions between FF1 to FF3.

    OK, I think that this issue (change of behavior: needs double click to get the reaction of simple click)-isRESOLVED: -

    I have disabled all addons and enabled/tested one by one... it was, apparently, the add-on "Multi links 3.0.0.16" was the problem.

    I replaced it with "Snap Links 2.1.1" (installed, but not yet tried a new), and less than a week daily work of 10-12 I never got this bug again.

    SOLVED!

  • P2714T, touchscreen does not account for quick taps

    SN: NC - 03 K 257 - 74445-37 t-008P, bought November 20, 2014 (yesterday)

    Rev. NUM. A00

    Computer - desktop (motherboard ASUS M5A78L-M, processor AMD FX-6200)

    OS: Windows 8.1

    Radeon HD 7700

    Monitor is attached via HDMI + USB(for touch)

    The cable came with monitor

    resolution 1920 * 1080, 60 Hz

    The problem is that the touch screen does not account the first quick tap after having been untouched for about 6 seconds. Which often prevents me from calling the menu Windows charms, but also simply ignorant of taps. If I do a prolonged click (approximately 1/4 of a second), the touch is recognized. Other faucets are satisfactorily than if I let the touchscreen only for more than 6 seconds.

    I tried to download the software FRO support page of the monitor, in the hope it will be updated to firmware or otherwise resolve the issue, but it did not help. I also ran the diagnosis integrated with no problem (looks like it only tests the display, but not touch)

    I did a quick test by placing the oscilloscope probe close to the touchscreen. I have observed that, after 6 seconds of rest, continuous pulse train transformed into bursts of pulses. This transition seems to coincide with the onset of the problem.

    Is it possible to solve the problem... It's pretty boring.

    We could not replicate this problem on several P2714T. Contact Support technique Dell for your country to make an exchange of the configuration screen.

  • Firefox does not work for multiple instances of the SAME user account on Windows Multipoint Server 2011

    We have a PC HP of MulitSeat MS6200
    It runs Microsoft Windows MultiPoint Server 2011 (which seems to be a twisted version of Windows 7)
    It is implemented in a laboratory of computer science and students connect you using their account for shared room - IE multiple instances of the same user accounts are currently running on the PC at the same time.
    The first student to run Firefox can work with it without a problem.
    However, when another student try to start firefox they get the following message:
    Firefox is already running but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system.

    Cannot start Firefox using a profile that is already used by someone else.
    Each Firefox instance needs its own profile or you will get this error message.

    Use-no.-line switch remote control to open another instance of Firefox with its own profile and to different instances of Firefox running concurrently.

  • 'Add files to download' does not work for my custom css file...?

    From now on, I have several snippets of CSS stylesheet in the HEAD of various pages tag, but I want to combine them all into a single file "custom.css" and it just a link to specific pages. So I have created "custom.css" in my 'active' projects folder and want to add it then my site by 'Add files to download' under the menu 'File' in MUSE. But I always get the message

    The X:\xxx\xxx\xxx\Assets\custom.css file is not a supported file format


    Is this possible? I think that used to work some time ago, I had a model that uses custom css files... Why is a css file not supported? Does not make much sense to me...

    I CAN add files jpg or svg to png oder so it doesn't seem to be a problem...?

    Thank you!

    Custom CSS in Muse can be placed at the head of each page.

    It there's no way that Muse can locate the css custom code in an active file and apply it to a specific page.

    Muse export all css on each page and stores it in a separate css file.

  • in 22 and 23.0 upgrate him disappears from the bookmarks toolbar and after crash firefox does not allow for recovery

    I hate this new update. I basically can't use the browser more. I only need firefox to do things properly, but if she cannot do these things I can't use it

    1. If firefox crashes (it does every 30 minutes it completely closed), then I need to be able to restore / recover all previously open windows when I start it back up again. There is no more.

    2. I use the bookmarks toolbar all the time, but often it appears completely blank. So now, the only way I can see bookmarks is if I go to options and uncheck bookmarks toolbar option and reselect then toolbar of bookmarks.

    It's so frustrating and worse still make you sure you can't do restorations! It of insulting and makes me want to not use your browser. A browser is a tool not criticizing a toy, but you guys will not stop playing with it.

    Also, older versions of the extension, meet bugs, you can refresh by using:

    Firefox orange (or the Tools menu) button > Add ons > "gear" button > "Check for Updates".

    For example, GM 1.5 (November 2012) vs GM 1.11 (July 2013).

  • Despite several reboots that Firefox does not open for 3 days because apparently he was busy, how can I see what it is and how to close?

    I set up my online banking site but could not sign, or sign out so I closed the website and Firefox. For 3 days I couldn't open Firefox and explore. During the 3 days, I rebooted several times. On the fourth day when I opened Firefox a screen open Firefox saying was embarrassed etc etc... and that I could restore my bank site online that I did. I was able to log in and log out of the account and close the site. My question is when Firefox crashes like that, how do I see if a site is opened in Firefox if I can't open Firefox?

    I am on Windows 7

    Clear the cache and cookies from sites that cause problems.

    "Clear the Cache":

    • Tools > Options > advanced > network > content caching Web: 'clear now '.

    'Delete Cookies' sites causing problems:

    • Tools > Options > privacy > Cookies: "show the Cookies".

    If clearing cookies doesn't work, then it is possible that the cookies.sqlite file that stores the cookies is corrupted.

    Rename (or delete) cookies.sqlite (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete other files to present as cookie cookies.sqlite - journal in the profile folder of Firefox in the case where the cookies.sqlite file has been corrupted.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).

    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the start safe mode window or make changes.
  • Firefox does not ask for confirmation when exit/close with several tabs open

    I'm having the same problem as user here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1139845 (only I have different OS)

    When multiple tabs open, Firefox ask me never confirmation when I click Firefox close window button in the corner (usually accidentally). And I would like confirmation.

    about: config I have:

    true browser.showQuitWarning (it is marked as custom value (bold), default is false)

    true browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab

    and when I close Firefox (usually accidentally) I get window of journalist of crash that I submit usually.

    Update: claims of a member who never close the confirmation appears for only one Firefox window, only several windows of Firefox. According to me, that this is of people probably half of bad idea is not using multiple windows, only the multiple tabs.

    The-edmeister says

    All you need to do is use the Previous Session Restore, either the default value: House in the lower right corner or history homepage > restoration of previous Session. ...

    Thank you very much for the input. Indeed, I go to Options/General and together "when Firefox starts:" 'Show my home page' and when I click on X to close the FF button, then asked to FF:

    "Want you Firefox to save your tabs for the next time it starts? I click on "Save and exit" when I start FF, tabs are automatically re-open! :-) It's very, very happy.

    I never thought tabs will be reopened when the blank page is set initially. And I did not tried because I usually have several tabs open, so do not wanted to risk. For me, the issue is resolved. THX

  • Firefox does not account settings to open the home page to start and open rather the previous tabs

    Opening of Firefox, the browser displays my previous session, despite my selection 'display the homepage' or 'show white screen' on the opening.

    You can check if you have a user.js file in the Firefox profile folder (a detailed list of the system shows that you have) which defines the pref browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once to true.

    (I noticed that the mozillaZine knowledge base is down at the time of this posting)

    The user.js file will be present if you or a other software created this file and normally will not present.
    The user.js file is read whenever Firefox is started and initializes the preferences to the specified value in this file, so the preferences set via user.js can be changed temporarily for the current session.

    You can remove the user.js file if you do not create this file yourself.

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

    Windows hides certain default file extensions.
    Among them .html and .ini and .js and .txt, and you can see only a file name without file extension.
    You can check the file extension (type) in the file properties in Windows Explorer via the context menu.

  • FaceTime does not account for failover of screen lock

    Hi all

    I've had this problem for a while now (at least since iOS 8) as well as with different iPhones (5, 5s, 6s). I usually failover of screen lock ON since I like to use my phone while on the couch or in bed and do not want to worry that the screen rotates another every minute.

    The bug following (?) that bothers me and a lot of my girlfriend:

    Screen rotation lock, I lie in bed (would be horizontal mode but it is vertical because it is locked) and I run a FaceTime call.

    -> FaceTime uses horizontal mode and ignores the lock of flipping screen in a vertical position

    Screen rotation lock ON, I start the FaceTime call in vertical mode-> all is good.

    Until I turn to another application, while holding the iPhone horizontally. The other application is in vertical mode (as it should be as flipping screen lock is on) but as soon as I return to FaceTime, FaceTime ignores the failover of screen lock and switch to horizontal mode.

    The solution in both cases:

    (1) I have to disable the blocking of the rotating screen (SRL),

    (2) hold the iPhone upright,

    (3) wait until FaceTime changes in vertical mode,

    (4) to activate once again, SRL

    (5) lie down with my iPhone in landscape mode.

    I don't see how this can be a feature! We are the only ones who are bothered by that?

    If you have a solution, please tell me. If this is not a bug but a feature, please describe a situation where this behavior makes sense.

    I thank very you much.

    Best regards

    Wait for the next update of iOS (9.3), it won't take very long I guess.

  • Satellite P105 mouse cursor does not account for hyperlinks

    Hello:

    1st time poster. Computer: Toshiba Satelite: P105

    MS XP Media Center Edition
    Version 2002
    Service Pack 3

    T5500 1.66 GHz
    1.67 GHz, 0.99 GB of Ram

    I had this thing for about 2 years, provided an excellent service.

    Problem: Several months ago, started to do cursor... described about what will not, indicate it is a hyperlink, nor will it responds when the cursor is over a hyperlink. This behavior begins after clicking indeed 1 or more hyperlinks w / in a given... so, no response as described page.

    If I move the mouse outside of the browser, click on something else (for example: the desktop icon, menu start etc.) and then return to the same web page, it will correctly display a hyperlink for 1 or more clicks slider, then resume ignoring as described.

    Very annoying. Any help appreciated.

    It's very strange and I really never heard of this issue.

    I can t say what is the reason for this question but I think it might be a virus or something else. Have you installed an anti virus program? It's really important if your phone has internet access. For this, you can use AntiVir. This program is freeware and I have good experiences with it. Install this tool and scan your laptop.

    In addition, you must install a program that can find and remove spyware. For example Search & Destroy Spybot and AdAware. These two tools are free. Google for it and you will find it.

    Make sure you have all the updates of Windows installed.
    In the worst case, you must reinstall Windows. :(

  • Sort by date does not account for the year

    When I sort the files by modification date he considers only the month and date. The year is ignored, causing very old files appear on the top, for example

    2008-09-30

    01/05/2009

    Are you in the files by computer / disk / folder or you use a shortcut to get the file?  Shortcuts sometimes do not function correctly, but it generally works very well if you sort starting with the link to the computer (I have just last week took a thread with the same question, and that is the resolution).

    Click the down arrow next to the update and then click on the Group and it will sort chronologically in groups: maybe the option will work.  Painful modified Date works fine on my system, first for files separately and then for files separately.

    I hope that this workaround works for you.  Otherwise (or you do not like the solution even if it works), after return and we will make a troubleshooting complete diagnosis to try to identify the problem and solve it.
