• HD's crashed, reinstalled the OS, how Firefox keep my Bookmarks Toolbar?

  This isn't really a problem, but I wonder how it happened, if someone can explain it.

  I had a hard drive crash, so I replaced and installed openSUSE Linux. From restarting after the installation, I opened Firefox and my Bookmarks Toolbar has been the same, with additions, that I had done for personal sites (some Linux help sites and job search sites, I added) before the crash of HD.

  I don't use synchronization, which is not part of the equation, unless there is an aspect of synchronization, which is enabled by default.

  By curiosity and a sense of wonder about safety, my question is this: is it bookmarks bar of information stored somewhere in the depths of a server to Mozilla/Firefox (or elsewhere) and how did my new installation pick up my Bookmarks Toolbar personally updated the to be used in the new facility?

  That would be the question for openSUSE support, if you use the version of Firefox that comes with openSUSE.

  The version of Firefox that comes directly from Mozilla [that you have installed yourself] is not active by default Sync. The version of openSUSE may have their own function for this, but I doubt that real if it is enabled automatically without your knowledge, or if synchronization is automatically turned on or the other.

• How to "sidebar" bookmark in Firefox 9.01?

  Just install 9.01 and look for the option to display bookmarks in a sidebar. Doesn't seem to be an option in the drop down menus from the top left "Firefox" with arrow.

  I have it working on an earlier version on a different system.

  Hi bibiche,.

  Try hitting ctrl + b to bring up the bookmarks bar. Pressing Alt to display the older items in menu bar temporarily. You also learned to Firefox > Options > Menu bar to give Firefox a more familiar feel. Then you can access the sidebar in the bookmarks menu.

  Also take a glance section of the Knowledge Base controls, buttons, and Toolbars Customize Firefox to see how you can add the button to the Quick Access toolbar.

  Hope this helps!

• How can I change the background color of the sidebar bookmarks?

  Grayish brown (I think) background color does not work for me. I'm a little color blind and the cursor to highlight the selected tab is not enough for me to easily see contrast.

  I have it! My eyes thank you very much for your help!

• Firefox 23.0.1, update is no longer automatically highlights the contents of address bar when I open a new tab.

  The foregoing. When I opened a new tab in the past, before the new update, firefox would automatically highlight the text in the address bar, and I couldn't just start typing here the address of the site that I wanted to. I could quickly get anywhere I want in less than a second. Now, I need to drag, and then click on in the bar every time to address. I installed an add-on called "custom newtab", but it slows down just me lower due to a lag between opening a new tab and the add-on kick and highlighting the contents of address bar.
  What is happening is this:
  Click "new tab".
  New tab opens blank, and the text appears highlighted "google.co.uk" for about a quarter second.
  Loading the Google page and highlight the text becomes not for another second quarter.
  The module comes in and highlights the text "google.co.uk" Meanwhile I have already started typing and end up losing the first part of words, sending me random web pages and research.

  Why this change? Difficulty please!

  Hi ChrisYeomans, a change has been noted in other threads on google.co.uk

  The http URL now automatically redirects to https. Since you did not specify the Protocol in your newtab.url setting, Firefox attempts http and it is immediately redirected to the https domain. You should be able to see this happen unless your computer is much faster than mine.

  Firefox does not handle this redirect elegantly - the URL in the address bar is not enabled unless you click a different tab, and then click back.

  To work around the problem, update your newtab.url to the URL https://www.google.co.uk/ full

• Where the icon star for one click bookmarking in Firefox 23.0.1?

  There was an icon star in the address bar, which could add a bookmark with a single click, without a menu drop-down menus or keyboard shortcuts that are necessary. It's fast and convenient. It is not in the update of firefox? If not, is there an add-on that can replace this feature?

  If it works in Mode safe mode and normal mode with all extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) off and then try to find which extension is the cause by allowing an extension at a time until the problem reappears.

  Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit ' (Windows: Firefox/file > quit;) Mac: Firefox > quit Firefox. Linux: Firefox/file > exit)

  If I open bookmarks and select a folder which is longer than the window of Firefox is high, the part of the list of bookmarks that falls outside the window remains on the desktop when I leave bookmarks or close the window. I then do a refresh of the desktop to get rid of the junk. Doesn't happen with IE9 MS. I use Windows 7 Home Premium on a SONY VAIO laptop. All started when I went to the VAIO in last November. A 'Show Desktop' or a refresh of the office cleaning.

  Could you try to disable graphics hardware acceleration? As this feature has been added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there are still some problems with some drivers/graphics cards.

  You need to restart Firefox for it to take effect, so save any work first (e.g. you compose mail, documents online that you are editing, etc.).

  Orange Firefox button or classic menu Tools > Options > advanced

  In the mini ' General' tab, uncheck the box for "use hardware acceleration when available.

  If you restart Firefox, the problem is solved?

• the sidebar has disappeared after the release of firefox 5.0-6

  I've been using the extension all-in-one sidebar, he worked until FF5.0. But after the 6.0 update today, I can't even see the ability to turn on a sidebar, either all-in-one or just out of the box canceled one. That's happened?

  Firefox 6.0 is a pre-release beta version, not due to be released for another 3 weeks.

  https://addons.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/addon/all-in-one-sidebar/
  
  See the bottom of this page - Version 0.7.14 19 June 2011 449,5 KB - works with: Firefox 4.0 - 6.0a2

  It has not been moved for 6.0b2 compatibility yet. Install and use this extension to force compatibility.
  
  https://addons.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/

  Then see how it works in 6.0. It may be a good reason that compatibility has not yet moved to 6. 0b, the developer can have some fixing to do.
