How can I recover changes to Firefox 4, which blocked all these features annoying Google?

Spent 3 months change in google and firefox then moved to a new computer, FF has not installed the other hard drive. Now it is annoying to ff below search box, ads and sponsored links and the story won't go away either. East - another 3-month project?

Firefox 4 uses a new build-in homepage called Subject: House with a Google search bar on this issue.

What about: home page only shows a few clips and has a button to restore the previous session, as appropriate.

If you want a homepage without the previous restore Session, then set another page the homepage like www.google.com or www.google.com/firefox used in versions of Firefox 3.

  • How can I recover my old firefox after I replaced it, it told me a new will not work?

    I was on my AOL Homepage and was encouraged to be upgraded for increased security. Everything went well, but when I tried to open Firefox, I learned it wouldn't work. Usually, with this older system, I am notified when an upgrade will not work. I would have never taken the lead and replaced my old if I knew. Is it possible to recover my old Firefox?

    There are apps that I have on this old system that does not work on newer systems. (I have an Airbook updated but I like the big screen for some things). I found this on Google:

    Sorry you have coming.

    See the attached screenshot. If you selected the option to remove my Aurora (nightly minefield, Firefox) the personal data and customizations you deleted all your profiles for each version you have / had installed. You can try to use a program for recovering files, like Recuva, to see what can be salvaged.

    The bookmarks to the file places.sqlite , or among the backup of bookmarks Favorites-aaaa-mm-jj.json files (10 are stored). Regarding your passwords, you need the file signons.sqlite and signons3.txt file.

  • my old account synchronization does not work on 'forgot my password link', how can I recover my account?

    Hello
    2 minutes ago I reset my fire Fox, because I had a few Add-ons unnecessary on my fire Fox, before rebooting, I had my sync on fire fox 34 v. account after reset now I can't use my account because I forgot my password, I used this link : https://account.services.mozilla.com/forgot to retrieve my password but to pop every time this error: "unable to locate your account. Please check your user name.
    so, how can I recover my password?

    more info: I used my email inbox to find my account name and password, I found a subject of the e-mail: "Verify your account" I clicked on [Verify] and fire fox sent to this address: [email protected], > > please confirm your firefox help question!
    [click here to check your e-mail] after clicking on I visited the link, arises in fact!

    What do?

    Please help me I have so many important saved passwords and history on my latest data.

    Thank you very much.

    "before the reset, I had my account for synchronization on fire fox 34 v."

    Why do you use Firefox 15.0 now? It uses an older version of Sync - 29 Firefox and later versions use a different, more recent synchronization version that uses another type of account - https://accounts.firefox.com/signup
    The old and the new version are not compatible with each other. Users can update one account of synchronization for the new version, but there is no way to "go back"; as it appears, you can try to do it with this old version of Firefox 15.

    In addition, you absolutely need your password, without it you can not connect on Sync and if you happen to change your password - your data is erased from the sync server. The password is used for data encryption method. Without the password entered, data is useless - no way to decrypt your data when it is retrieved from the server.

    Upgrade to Firefox 35 mentioned guigs2 and try to open a session for synchronization through this version. Forget about 'update' from your account. If you were using Firefox 34 before, you already have the new account Sync. But you better have your password, because if you "reset" this account with a new password to your data will be gone.

  • Disagreement with Firefox 3, Firefox 4 does not register the tabs open when I leave to have several tabs open. How can I do this in Firefox 4?

    In Firefox 3, when I got to close the program to have several tabs open, Firefox asked me if I wanted to save and remember the tabs open, so that I can get them at the next restart of Firefox. Firefox 4 is no more. Is it because I have have not properly set up somehow, or is this normal? How can I recover this function?
    Thanks in advance,
    Andrea

    A Firefox 4 is from Firefox showing the default warning message will stop, but it can be turned on again by changing some preferences.

    1. Type of topic: config in the address bar and press on enter
    2. Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
    3. Find browser.tabs.warnOnClosepreference, if its value is set to false, double-click on it to change its value to true
    4. Repeat this for 3 preferences browser.warnOnQuit, the browser.warnOnRestart and the browser.showQuitWarning

  • I would limit the window to the same size as my site... How can I do this in Firefox?

    I would limit the window to the same size as my site... How can I do this in Firefox?

    Sorry, this is not possible more in Firefox, with the exception of the pop-up windows that opens a website, and which can be overridden by the user with a simple preference setting in the Options.

    Users cannot change or set the window size in their own browser from the URL bar any longer, they do so through the notebook in the Web Developer menu under the Firefox button.

    Or log on as an administrator on the computer (such as 'administrator') and check that the control panel user accounts.

    Administrator account

    I accidentally delete my administrator account. How can I recover the account?

    Hi desmondlau,

    ·         Did you completely remove the account?

    ·         Do you have any other user account on the computer?

    ·         If so, is that a Director or a limited account?

    Try the following.

    Step 1: Try to start in safe mode. Check if you can login as administrator.

    Step 2: If you are able to connect, and then create a new administrator account and other changes. Restart the computer in normal mode to see if you can connect.
