Firefox from last week will not regenerate Yahoo
On my desktop (laptop is OK), my home page is the Yahoo portal, when I start FF, loads of Yahoo and displays correctly, if I try to any link, I get streaming text only scroll towards the bottom of the page, if I click on a link, close FF and starts again, the link now loads and displays correctly but again, if I click on any link or click on the Home icon (which is on the portal of Yahoo), it displays the text. Been like this for a few weeks (the Office has automatic update for FF, so I am not sure that the problem began. Everything works fine in IE or Chrome. My laptop (which has the same addons) works very well. I disabled all addons from the desktop, but always the same result. Is there anyway that I can reinstall FF without losing all my favorites and settings? I think that this is the cleanest solution, do not want to lose everything I have accumulated over the last 10 years +.
Hi zshoppe
Weird. I doubt that this is a problem of Firefox because it works fine in Firefox on your laptop.
Questions and stuff more to try:
- Please tell us your OS version (it's well developed 8.1 Windows me and Mac OS X 10.9.5;) I assume that you are working under Windows since you mentioned IE)
- Have you tried Firefox Safe mode? Otherwise, please try and see if that solves the problem. https://support.Mozilla.org/en-us/KB/troubleshoot-Firefox-issues-using-safe-mode
See you soon!

I can't open a pdf from last week. I have a Samsung s6 edge with t-mobile. I spent an hour and a half with t-mobile tech support and they told me to email you because they don't know what else to do.
Hi Edwin,.
May I know what is happening when you try to open a PDF file with Adobe Acrobat app on your device Galaxy.
Try this:
Go to settings > Applications > Adobe Acrobat
Under the terms of the App Info, click on clear Cache
Then try to open a PDF file
Still, if this does not work
Uninstall the application
Then download and install directly from APK files.
Adobe - Adobe Acrobat Reader DC Distribution
I would like to know if it works for you.

Firefox 3.6.3 will not play integrated youtube videos. It comes up with ' year error occurred please try again later. " It happens all the time. If you click to go to youtube the clip plays.
This has happened
Each time Firefox opened
Well, here's my answer to my own post.
After reading some posts here about possible solutions, I tried to delete all the cookies for YouTube (Tools > options > privacy > show cookies > youtube.com). Then tested on a site with integrated video would not play before and on YouTube directly - both worked!
The poster with the suggestion of cookies also proposed changes to the 'exceptions', but it was not necessary at least for me.

But if I hold the cursor on the short cut, that it shows the last tab and how many pages come from my last visit, but will not open them no matter how many times I click it
If you think that your Firefox window can be "off-screen" somewhere, what happens sometimes to certain users, this discussion has a few things to heal that: when I go to open firefox it appears on my toolbar, but not on my screen where it is?

Show my windows and tabs from last time does not not in 14.0.1
Last week, the functionality of Firefox to display the tabs from last time has stopped working. He can't have worked earlier.
I can't find any reference to what is a matter of news, but according to the existing guidelines and what I tried, it should work.
Any ideas?It is possible that there is a problem with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox profile folder.
Delete the sessionstore.js file possible sessionstore-# .js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox profile folder.
- Help > troubleshooting information > profile directory: opens showing the file
- http://KB.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Delete sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and tab groups and opened and closed the tabs (back) to get lost, so you will need to create them again (take note or bookmarks).

Why my "display windows and tabs from last time ' does not work?
Hi all
I used to have my settings set to "display windows and tabs from last time." For some reason, it does not. Whenever I close my tabs, Firefox warns you me I close many tabs, and when I reopen it Firefox, I only get my home page.
In the menu options, I put 'windows and tabs from last time' options, and in private life, I have "Firefox will remember history", so I do not think it is related to my settings.
I saw a thread on 'browser.sessionstore.enabled' must be true about: config, but I don't have even a name preference that says "browser.sessionstore.enabled. Maybe that's the problem? If so, I have NO IDEA how to fix this. I only am not at all computer savvy.
If someone could find a solution to this very annoying problem, I would be very grateful. If it takes a lot of work of programming/techno, please be VERY descriptive (pretend I'm a 5 year old child in giving directions).
Thank you!
Browser.sessionstore.Enabled is no longer used, worry not if you can't find it.
In case you use "clear history of Firefox closing:
- do not erase browsing history – which will prevent the restoration of the work session.
- Tools > Options > privacy > Firefox will be: "Use the custom settings for history": [X] 'Clear history of Firefox closing' > settings
- https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/remove-recent-browsing-search-and-download-history
Note that compensation "Preferences of Site" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, installation of software, passwords, and other specific data from Web site.
Deletion of cookies will delete all specified (selected) cookies, including cookies with an exception allowing you want to keep.
You can check the prefs of . browser.sessionstore * including browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash on the topic: config page and reset the browser.sessionstore prefs that are correct (in bold) user via the context menu in the default value to make sure that the Session Restore is enabled and functional.

If I download Firefox from the Mozilla Web site, how Yahoo is involved?
I don't know why, but people think downloading firefox from mozilla.org you will get the version of Yahoo or Yahoo has somehow bought Mozilla. You now have partnerships with Google, Yahoo and Bing search, but if people want the original rather than the Yahoo version Firefox, they should know that they can still come to rather than get you it from Yahoo. I've seen a lot of spam from Yahoo servers so personally, I don't use Yahoo and don't trust that download of Firefox that Yahoo is actually a safe download. Yahoo has created its own custom Firefox because Microsoft do not let them create a custom Internet Explorer more. That's the only reason. I think that you should insist that Yahoo do much more to increase its security, and you should get the message that Firefox is still available in its original form on the Mozilla site and that has nothing to do with Yahoo.
To add to what has been said:
Mozilla allows its 'partners' to distribute customized Firefox, such as "Firefox optimized for Yahoo" versions, but Mozilla must approve the customizations. For more information, see
- http://www.Mozilla.org/en-us/about/partnerships/ Partner with Mozilla
.. .which binds to
- http://www.Mozilla.org/en-us/about/partnerships/distribution/ Mozilla desktop distribution ... who says:
Please note that any customizations to Firefox and other branded products intended for distribution require Mozilla's approval. For further information on our distribution policies, please see the Policies section.

Very recently, I bought this product to replace my HP slimline s5310f aging. The new system has the 6th gen CPU core i7-6700 8 and 16 GB of RAM. My old one has a core 2 CPU and 8 GB of RAM, so I thought the news would be incredibly faster.
The new came with 10 Windows installed, but that was fine because I had been running Windows 10 for a year on the former with some success. But much to my surprise a new ran and runs like a snail in Alaska in winter. We are talking about by clicking on the icon of the Explorer files and easily 10-15 SECONDS to get the first screen waiting. And everything I tried was the same. Very shortly after the setting of this system in place M$ released their update of the birthday that I applied. If something he ran even more slowly. Because I don't fo programming life I was forced to continue to use my old HP for my projects while reseaching still the slow pace of the new. Research has shown that M$ has many complaints of slowness, and last week, they release an "emergency solution" to supposedly fix it. Again, nothing improved. So my only option is / was to install Windows 7 my DVD of Windows 7 Ultimate x 64. I changed my UEFI for heritage to support booting from a DVD and restart. I gives me the option to boot from the DVD and Windows 7 Setup begins. And the very first prompt that appears is the license agreement (EULA) end-user MUST verify and click NEXT to continue. But wait! My USB keyboard and mouse DO NOT WORK! Research shows that the DVD of Windows 7 does not have drivers that are compatible with the new system of Sky (something). So I can't continue. In fact, the only option available is to physically cut the machine. Get the picture?
So, I hope that someone can be aware of how you may be able to fix it or work around the issue in a practical way (I could customize my own DVD of Windows, but it isn't really practical).
I'be so very interested to see if anyone can help.
Thanks for reading and honestly I don't expect all the practical answers. And if I do I will be extremely grateful.
Unhappy with long-term HP Server/computer laptop / desktop customer.l
Hello:
The problem is that your W7 DVD does not have USB3 required drivers for the keyboard and the mouse works.
Who would not have been a problem if your PC has PS/2 ports that you might have used.
The other problem is that the skylake chipset does not support USB2 until the drivers for the chipset are installed, then connect the KB and mouse in one of the usb ports 2 is not an option.
However, Intel has this utility that you can use to insert drivers into a USB flash drive, you'll need to do your W7 DVD.
There is a readme file on the link below which will give you the steps you need to install W7 on this model of PC.
This utility must be run on a PC with W8.1 or W10, then I hope that you can do on your current PC because there W10.

New computer, Dell XPS 17 laptop computer, Windows 7 64 bit, downloaded the latest Firefox (new v12.0), but he will not be asked to remember the passwords? This is one of the big reasons able to use Firefox, is there something that needs to be defined? Also disgusted that Windows Easy Transfer from your old computer, that would have been copied 'everything' is not copied my Firefox stuff on?
Here's what I suggest:
On your old computer, open help > troubleshooting information and then on the button that says either the folder containing (pre 12 Firefox) or view folder (Firefox 12). It's your active profile, and you must copy all the content of this file on a USB flash drive or another your favorite type of media.
On your new computer, close Firefox and starts in the Profile Manager, as described in the management profiles. Create a new blank profile. After Firefox starts upward in this profile, see help > troubleshooting information > view folder. Leave this window open and restart Firefox.
Now completely erase this profile folder and dump all of your old profile in folder. Restart Firefox and you should have as close a replica as possible to your old configuration.
A little luck?

"show my windows and tabs from last time ' does not work after upgrade to 8.01
After I've upgraded to the latest v8.01 I lost all my tabs sites and even trying to add them and save them with the tools > Options > general > start > when Firefox starts selected have to "show my windows and tabs from last time" she does not hold registered sites and browser restarts it always loses all tabs and shows only a tab with Firefox home Web page. I need to open several sites to work and the only way to do it now is to make sure, I click on the current use in "pages" under General Option of the tools. It's getting very boring because I keep changing my tabs to different sites in a meeting and I am used to simply close the browser, based on making them all back in when you restart Firefox.
Have you tried to delete the file or move it to another location?
There should also be a file sessionstore.bak that contains the previous session, i.e. the sessionstore.js file found at the beginning of the current session and is used to restore the previous session via ' history > restore previous Session '.
Also, make sure that Firefox is closed correctly and that there is not any suspended the process Firefox

updated firefox, and now it will not load
I updated firefox last night and now my icon has changed to a blank sheet of paper and will not let me load firefox
Sounds like something went PEAR somewhere along the line. I would suggest relocation like this:
- Go to Download Firefox 4.0 and download a fresh install on the desktop file.
- Then go to add/remove programs, scroll down to Mozilla Firefox and remove it, choosing to keep your bookmarks, etc., the customizations (don't tick the box).
- Reboot and delete the folder called Mozilla Firefox at this location: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
- Finally, run the downloaded installation file.
After completing the installation, go to the Plugins check page and those if necessary updated.
