How do some shortcuts using Firefox and some use IE
I heard there is a way to use FF as default browser, but have still select desktop shortcuts use IE only because that's what they have to work. How do I do that?
I am still using XP3 pro but will soon be on Win7.
- Ask you about changing desktop shortcuts.
- I tell you how to do this.
- You post on a non-existent menu item that allows you to open IE of in Firefox and marks as the solution.
Great.
In any case, it takes an add-on for that.

Given that the system on my laptop crashed, I did disk image on external disk c and format on the hard drive. Now, I wanted to copy all data from the disk image but system overwrites every time. I can't get back passwords, e-mails, story for firefox and thunderbird disk image. Picture disc I made of Acronis, so I can't restore necessary data and files (it is possible to make a complete copy, but I need only the data, as mentioned above). Thank you!
you don't specify what version of acronis you use - on their website they give advice on how to restore individual files, so in principle it is possbile: http://kb.acronis.com/content/10645 - if you need more details, please contact acronis support.
in regard to your firefox settings, these are stored in your profile folder. for reference, see recovering data from an old profile

How do I EXIT 29,0 firefox (and save windows/tabs)?
Previous versions of Firefox allowed me to "quit Firefox" in the drop-down file menu. It is now missing from the updated 29,0. How to get out now Firefox and save my windows/tabs open? Should I shut down the computer (with FF still running) and hope that all the windows and tabs will be restored the next time you start? Will I be reprimanded (possibly in the form of losing my windows/tabs) for not to close Firefox "correctly"?
Hit the bar 3 Menu button on the right side of the Navigation and bar in the lower right corner of the Menu panel there is an icon for the output.
Or you can press the Alt key, and then open the file menu and select Exit.
Or you can use Alt and then F then X - everything from the keyboard. -
have 5 LR and CC. The folders are different, some are missing in the CC. And some Collections are not available in CC. I'm looking forward to use CC rather than LR5 so how can I make the folders and collections even on each?
Hi cjohnm,
You can use the 5 Lightroom Catalog and improve it in Lightroom 6, therefor all folders and collections will be identical in both version.
Open the Lightroom all holding the key Alt/Opt and select only the 5 Lightroom Catalog and it will switch to it.
Let us know if that helps.
Kind regards

The shortcut get pinned to the taskbar? If you right-click on the taskbar, the icon of Firefox, has the option to "unpin this program from the taskbar? You can do to return the shortcut on the desktop, or you could make a shortcut in doubles for the office.
To make a duplicate shortcut, use the search box of Windows 10 to find firefox.exe - do not press ENTER, which can run the program, just let Windows show he finds the program file. Click right firefox.exe and use to send to > desktop (create shortcut)
Still works in Windows 10?
Otherwise, you can paste the following text in the search box and press ENTER to open the folder of the program Firefox then right click firefox.exe here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox

Firefox and Safari are not completely load some sites, but Chrome is. Why?
Tonight, I noticed that some Web sites have been does not completely load on firefox. I tried to use Safari to see if it was a firefox problem, but he had the same problem. However, when I loaded the sites on Google Chrome it worked fine.
I tried to reset firefox and clear cache, but it did not help so I uninstalled and reinstalled but it still doesn't load these web pages correctly. This just shows that constantly trying to load and pieces of the site are missing or broken. I'm on a Mac using Mountain Lion. I've updated the Java plug in, but it does not seem to have done anything to improve the situation.
Alternatively, you can try to disable IPv6.
You can try to reset (power off / on) of the router.

Bernd R.Hello
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. As this feature has been added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there are still some problems.
You will have to perhaps restart Firefox for it to take effect, so save any work first (e.g. you compose mail, documents online that you are editing, etc.).
Then perform the following steps:
- Click on the orange top left Firefox button, then select the 'Options' button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to tools > Options.
- In the Firefox options window, click the Advanced tab, and then select 'General '.
- You will find in the list of parameters, the checkbox use hardware acceleration when available . Clear this check box.
- Now restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
In addition, please check the updates for your graphics driver by following the steps in the following knowledge base articles:

I use Firefox and Norton Toolbar 4.6 reports it is disabled because it is not compatible with Firefox 4.0.1. Given that I have use this feature much more that any increased in the new Firefox functionality, how can I revert to the previous version I was using? It's Firefox 3.6.17. Everything works and I'm happy to wait until Norton supports new version.
Follow these steps.
Go to Download Firefox v3.6.17 and upload it to the office.
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 installation file downloaded previously on the desktop.
Your bookmarks, etc., customizations are stored in a different location and will become available to you even once you complete the installation.
EDIT: keep an eye on this thread product compatibility with Firefox updates Norton
