  HI Cavemann,
  I just tested this feature for the first time. It is pretty cool. I just tested this version 30 and it worked well. Are there changes to the Application settings for email links? He remembers the preferences in this menu.

• 31 Firefox on Linux Mint 13 suddenly stopped to save tabs or warning on close

  Have used this system for about a year. Update Firefox once or two. Always worked very well. In the last months I kept several tabs open that I wanted to keep but are not currently working with. FF has always presented the 'Save and exit' box, and always, I clicked on "save and exit". He has always worked and always open with my saved tabs.

  This morning I had a question about the file manager of mint 13, Caja. I clicked on the 'Help' of Caja button. Firefox was not open. Caja-opened with only the tab of the home page. I downloaded a PDF file and closed FF.

  Then I wondered about this behavior and open FF in the menu, as I usually do. It opened only the home page.

  After a lot of research online and study settings FF, I find:

  • 'Restore previous Session' is always grayed out.
  • "Warn when closing" (topic: config) is always set to True
  • Preferences-Tabs is always set to "Warn me when closing multiple tabs"
  • I found that preferences-general set to 'show my home page ". I changed it to "show my windows and tabs from last time '.

  At this point, FF opens with the sidebar story opens if I let him, but

  • • It does NOT indicate on several tabs
    • He's not asking if I want to "save and exit", as he has always so far
    • It does NOT save open tabs
    • It ALWAYS starts with ONLY the homepage, despite the settings.

  I restarted Linux, but it made no difference.
  I've NOT updated FF recently. I have nothing.

  That's happened? Why should FF behave suddenly it? This happened to someone else?

  Thank you.

  SUCCESS!

  Here's what worked:

  (1) yesterday I installed the Session Manager (then had to deal with other issues).

  (2) today:

      a)  I renamed my "sessionstore.js" to "sessionstore.bak-(today's date/time).
      b)  I copied that July sessionstore backup file to the desktop, renamed the copy "sessionstore.js" and put it back.
      c)  Restarted Firefox.  Session Manager promptly popped up a dialog box asking what tabs I wanted to restore.  I recognized all my old tabs, so I had it restore everything.
      d) Closed FF with "Save and quit".
      e)  Re-started FF.  It came up with all the tabs, just like before.
  

  I 'got lucky' here by having this backup of session July 31, on that I didn't even know.

  Thanks to jscher2000 and cor - el for your useful tips.

  billmcct, your idea sounds good too, except that in this case this backup file got defined to match the '.js' until I realize what was going on. So it would not have helped here. Thanks for sharing, however.

  Firefox for linux mint 1.0 33.0

  Hi Shankaraya,
  This phenomenon happens with a packaged version of Firefox or is happening to Mozilla-hosted version of linux?

• If you use firefox for linux, I'm unable to open the game client for a called flash browser game darkorbit.

  I'm using Linux Mint 17.2 xfce.
  The Firefox I use is 42.0 Mozilla Firefox for Linux Mint Mint - 1.0.
  Shockwave Flash is 11.2r202.
  The browser Flash game is DarkOrbit ( www.darkorbit.com ).
  The game was working fine until about 2 months ago.

  I log in the game (as before) and get on the last page without any problem.
  When I click on 'Start' to go to the game client, the screen is black. The browser tab written game client will blink twice.
  Please note that everything works fine when I use the chrome Web browser.
  DarkOrbit works very well with Firefox on Windows.

  Is there a way to use the pepper Flash used in Chrome/chrome using the freshplayerplugin wrapper.

  Your Linux distro may have related packages for it.

  Alternatively, you can use Chrome or chrome for that one site and use Firefox for everything else.

• Console DRAC 5 and virtual media does not not from Firefox on Linux

  Nice day

  I'm trying to access the console and features virtual media from a server of PE2950iii with a Drac 5 with the latest firmware 1.65 from a client Linux Mint running Firefox 27.

  I had no chance whatsoever with the plugin and now try the java applet. Using the java applet I can successfully open a virtual console and see what is on the screen, however, it does not meet one of my shots (or macro keys in the menu).

  Trying to run the java applet of virtual media is worse that that does not even start. I get the following error:

  Can anyone tell me how to get these 2 items to work? Thank you!
  

  Think I have this more often figured out. I just ripped the system and reconnect the 2 cables DRAC. Restarted and my keyboard works now! I should have been warned before my text was like a greenish color, but after reinstalling it is a typical white font as if I had a screen connected to the machine.

  27 Firefox on Linux Mint 16 with Java 7, so I can launch the Java console and it seems to work fine. The virtual media still doesn't seem to work. I get an error at the launch of it. He started on my Windows 7 client however.

• Hello from Firefox with camera backwards (with linux Mint 17)

  Hello, I am running Firefox 36.0.1 and I tried the new addon from Hello. Unfortunately, my camera is displayed upside down. It was the same problem I had using Skype and I had to update libv4l and that worked. It still works now for Skype, but Hello the problem is back. (I use linux Mint 17)
  Any suggestion?

  Skype and Gtalk for linux are 64-bit by default, but Firefox is a 32-bit program (for now). LD_PRELOAD = /usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so will not solve this problem in Hello because it is a 64-bit library.

  Using /v4l1compat.so is the right idea, but that error "cannot open shared object file" comes from the kernel and not from Firefox. "Cannot open shared object file" means that the file is not there or that your user name is not allowed to read. Verify the path and permissionsv4l1compat.so (after checking that the library is there and that it has the appropriate permissions) and then try to run: LD_PRELOAD = / usr/lib32/libv4l/v4l1compat.so/usr/bin/firefox

• I can not connect to firefox sync, the window does not

  I just do a fresh install of Linux Mint cinnamon 14 that comes with Firefox 17.0.1. When I try to set up sync, I can't go past the screen 'Pair device', even if the other device confirms that the code is correct. If I click on 'I don't have the camera with me', I am able to get into my account and password recovery key, but when I click on the 'next' button, nothing happens.

  I started Firefox in a terminal using 'firefox Pei' and created a new profile. This solves the problem.

• Since the update to Thunderbird worm. 41 it is fixed as the preferred application for browsing the web in Linux Mint 17.2?

  What could be the cause of Thunderbird to set as the favorite in Linux Mint 17.2 browser client. If I reset it to Firefox, the next time I open Thunderbird, it still resets the preferred setting Thunderbird client.

• How can I remove wrong email for Firefox Sync on my browser?

  Hi all

  I use Firefox 37 recently. I'm new to Firefox sync and made a stupid mistake. I myself registered with my email account but accidently left a character. It seems that the verification email has gone to someone who has that email address.

  I tried to register on the synchronization with the correct e-mail and now I get the message:
  Merge the warning
  Another user has been previously connected to synchronize on this computer. Signing in will merge bookmarks from that browser, passwords and other settings with "... @mail.com '.

  Is it possible to remove the wrong address of my browser?

  Thank you

  Try to delete the folder of the armor and the signedInUser.json file in the Firefox profile folder and delete the prefs.js file to reset the prefs and may also remove the compatibility.ini file to reset the profile.

  5. in this new folder as you open dictionaries folder and copy all the files you have there
  6 open your file manager and go to/usr/lib/firefox/dictionaries

• topic: Home Search does not work in Linux Mint 15

  I recently installed a new copy of Linux Mint 15 (Cinnemon). It comes pre-packaged with Firefox, but after setting the homepage back to the default (subject: House), I noticed that the search bar on this page did not work. By this I mean that the form has not provided or by pressing Enter or clicking on the ' search ' button.

  I deleted all the Add-ons, removed and reinstalled Firefox several times, tried the Reset, and deleted, then recreated function profiles manually reset the options of configuration by default and any other thing I could think of. Nothing did.

  Some users of a similar question mentioned that helped chromeappsstore.sqlite deleted, but this file is never created for me. In addition, localStorage ["search-engine"] is not defined according to the console, but Google is defined as the defaultenginename.

  Any ideas on what else to try?

  See you again all search engines in manage search engines?

  You can check if you have the XML files including Google's default search engine in the browser/searchplugins folder in the Firefox program folder.

  If this isn't the case, then you need to reinstall Firefox.
