Firefox ignoring the mail setting

Firefox 38.0.5 running in Windows 7. While trying to solve a problem of Windows a few weeks ago, I had to reinstall Firefox. It does not seem to blow all my settings, then he came right back with bookmarks, etc... In any case, now, if I click on an e-mail link, it opens at least 50 instances of Internet Explorer! It's crazy! In Firefox I mailto to use Thunderbird (by default) and it used to work great. Now this.

HELLLLLLLLLLP!

I think that if you renamed mimeTypes.rdf and checked the registry of Windows, I am at a loss to explain why Firefox sends the request to IE...

We had a thread where the user had to dive into the registry directly to find the problem: Mailto links in websites not working do not properly in FF 36.0.1.

I don't know if the problem may be in Thunderbird... Why would he bounce a mailto for IE? Which seems to be an option that should not exist yet.

  • How to retrieve the default setting of my browser?

    When I download all the files in the firefox browser, there is a small box that asks if you want your browser, the same operation for files as the file is downloaded automatically,
    I did and I used to pick up the old man sitting, I tried to reinstall the browser, but it is not worked! so any suggestion?

    Have you noticed this problem with no particular type of file?

    Firefox uses a header sent by the web server to assign actions to the various types of downloads. For example, the server can send application/pdf to download a PDF document or text/csv to a comma separated values file that usually open in a spreadsheet. Actually, Firefox ignores the extension of the file itself, which could be .pdf, .php, .aspx, or whatever.

    You often can review and confirm or change these settings here:

    Orange Firefox button or classic menu Tools > Options > Applications

    Edit: If the corresponding file type is not listed on this tab, you may need to do the full reset in the answer above, or you might be able to simply remove the specific settings for the MIME types file.

  • Since the update of firefox, facebook, yahoo mail and some msn sites do not work

    At the same time as this update, I had cleaned my cache and cookies. But since then, Yahoo Mail are not available in Firefox, Facebook loads with only text for things such as news, login, etc., and several loading in the same way MSN sites.

    You can try the following steps in case of problems with web pages:

    You can reload webpages and ignore the cache to refresh potentially stale or corrupt.

    • Hold down the SHIFT key and click the Reload button
    • Press 'Ctrl + F5' or 'Ctrl + Shift + R' (Windows, Linux)
    • Press 'Command + shift + R' (Mac)

    Clear the cache and cookies only from Web sites that are causing problems.

    "Clear the Cache":

    • Firefox/tools > Options > advanced > network > content caching Web: 'clear now '.

    'Delete Cookies' sites causing problems:

    • Firefox/tools > Options > privacy > "Use the custom settings for history" > Cookies: "show the Cookies".

    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.

    • Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe
  • I am new to this. I do not understand what is meant by making Firefox my "default browser". I use gmail, and I have to open a session, each time I want to use the mail?

    I don't even know if there is an interaction between Firefox and gmail. I know it's a pain every time that I want to use the mail, I have to open a session. I didn't connect with Internet Explorer. My goal here is to take advantage of Firefox are reached do not SPAM etc. Where and how can I set up Firefox as my default browser, and what are the other benefits? Keep it simple, guys, I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

    The "default browser" is that Windows uses to open links from other applications or the desktop shortcuts. If a browser is designated as the default does not affect the operation of pages web in the browser.

    Sites recognized generally that you are still connected by setting a cookie. When you install Firefox, it is configured to receive and fix these cookies. However, there are many ways for the cookies to be deleted, including:

    • Settings on the Privacy tab of the Options dialog box such as whether you want to accept cookies and how long they stay - privacy, and-not-track browsing history settings
    • Option erasure of history to the judgment (even if the function is called history of compensation, there are a few 10 or more categories of data, you can choose individually delete or keep)
    • Using the incognito feature - cookies last only as long as the camera
    • The modules focus on the protection of personal information that change the way are managed cookies - your system data does not display of these
    • External security, privacy or system cleanup software

    In your case, your "more details of the system" shows that you have set Firefox automatically start in private browsing mode. In this configuration, Firefox does not keep cookies between sessions, as long as the sites Web is concerned, the next time you visit you are a foreigner. It could invoke is if you or someone else with access to your computer went in the Privacy Options and value Firefox "never remember history".

    You should probably disable automatic private browsing, unless you can find an add-on to store cookies that you want to store between private sessions.

  • How to get Firefox to ignore the status of liaison visits when printing?

    How to get Firefox to ignore the status of liaison visits when printing?

    When I print something, visited links are a different color than unvisited links.
    Is there a way to make the color even when printing?
    (without changing the story, or how things look on the screen)

    If there isn't a way to do that, how about this by adding as a feature?

    One way to do would be to create style rules customized for the printed output that hardcode the link colors for all of the printed output. Firefox supports two ways to proceed: a file userContent.css that you create in the folder settings, and a custom stylesheet applied using the Stylish extension.

    However, 'one size fits all' could lead to unreadable results or ugly on some pages. If an add-on that can do adaptive way would be better. I do not know if someone has created a.

    For sites that do not require a login and that are not personalized, you could launch the page in a private window (right click on the link > open in a new private window or copy the URL and then Ctrl + Shift + p, then paste it in the address bar and enter). Because private windows have their own history, the print should not reflect the history of your regular windows.

    What security (firewall, antivirus) software do you have?

    One possible cause is security software (firewall, antivirus) that prevents or limits Firefox or plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.

    Delete all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container in the permissions list in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission to get full unlimited access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.

    See:

    Try to start the computer in safe mode Windows with network support (on the startup screen, press F8) as a test to see if that helps.

  • What is the default setting for the homepage of the new tab in firefox?

    My browser has been hijacked, I need to reset and I don't know which is the default setting. I would use the new firefox tab layout.

    See:

    The URL of the new tab page is on: newtab

    The build-in home page URL is on: home.

    If there is a problem with the build-in on: home page and then try to reset the search engine used on the subject: homepage.

    Reset the pref browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone through the context menu by default on the topic: config page and close and restart Firefox to restore the on: default home page.

    1. Open the topic: config page through the address bar
    2. Type in the filter bar: mstone
    3. Right-click on the browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone line, and then select: Reset
    4. Close and restart Firefox

    If this did not help, then remove the button Delete the chromeappsstore.sqlite file in the Firefox profile folder and repeat the foregoing.

  • Set the mail read-only account

    I have a shared corporate email account that I use for the read-only.

    I'm not supposed to use that account to send emails, but have had a few close encounters.

    Is it possible in the e-mail settings that I can put an account to "read only"? I won't be able to write, move or remove anything through the mail application.

    This method would be much safer double checking each email before I send, sometimes I have to email very quickly and forget to double check.

    It is not a 'read only' option for e-mail accounts, but you can set the SMTP to zero.  SMTP Simple Mail Transfer Protocol, but what it does is Send Mail To People.

  • I recently downloaded Firefox 9 and installed 'successfully '. However, I get a prompt at the start, saying: I'm not on the latest version. If I click on 'upgrade', I learned that I'm "up to date". What gives? Can I just ignore the prompt?

    You should change your homepage.

    It - http://www.google.com/firefox - is the old Page to start Firefox used by the Firefox 3.6 and earlier versions of Firefox. I think that Google assumes that you are using an older version of Firefox, as they hard-coded message 'upgrade' in this page - all versions of Firefox see this message.

    From version Firefox 4, Firefox uses a 'local' with the address Start Page of Subject: House. It looks like the old start Page, but this isn't exactly the same thing.

  • Firefox 4 ignoring the property table (< td > < table >)

    I'm working on the upgrade of the https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/156940/ for Firefox 4 compatibility extension.

    Essentially extensions improves the site by adding a few query fields that are locked in the format "table > < td > <. There is no problem up to FF 3.6.9. But at 4 FF, it ignores the < td > < table > properties.

    But it works with any questions on the latest versions of chrome and safari

    This is because the code is wrong.

    You're lucky it works in Firefox 3.6, but Firefox 4.0 is more strict.

    You try to add items TD to the innerHTML of an another TD element and it does not work.

    <td id="navSearchBar" class="navSearchBar">Search</td>

    You need to add < table > < / table > around code.

    This code should work:

    			if (lsa[0] == "jp")
    			{
    				searchTxt = "<table><td style=\"font-weight:bold; font-size:13px; padding-right:5px;\"><span style=\"float:left; width:28px;\">" + searchTxt + "</span></td>";
    			}
    			else
    			{
    				searchTxt = "<table><td style=\"font-weight:bold; font-size:13px; padding-right:5px;\">" + searchTxt + "</td>";
    			}
    			if (lsa[0] != "ca")
    			{
    				searchTxt += "<td style=\"padding-left:3px;\"><select id=\"p_76\" name=\"p_76\"><option value=''>Any<option value='1'>Prime<option value='1-'>Free</select></td>";
    			}
    			searchTxt += "<td style=\"padding-left:3px;\"><select id=\"pct-off\" name=\"pct-off\"><option value=''>0-100% <option value='10-'>10% <option value='20-'>20% <option value='30-'>30% <option value='40-'>40% <option value='50-'>50% <option value='60-'>60% <option value='70-'>70% <option value='80-'>80% <option value='90-'>90%</select></td></table>";
