How to open the Firefox options in a window as it is used, instead of in a new tab?
Firefox used to have options in a separate window, but now when I try to open it, it opens in a new tab instead, which is quite annoying, because it removes the emphasis on my active tab. How can I go about changing this back to the old way of doing with the window much easier?
There is a way to return to the Inbox of dialogueOptions old style pop up. Here's how:
(1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press enter/return. Click on the button promising to be careful.
(2) in the search above the list box, type or paste pref and make a pause so that the list is filtered
(3) double-click the preference browser.preferences.inContent to true to false
(Note: I don't know if the old dialog box will be in Firefox forever, or is a transitional device.) As you have probably noticed, the long-term trend is to remove things that appear.)
I hope that the opportunity to return to your last used tab is added in a future update. In fact, Firefox should go back to your last active tab when you close the tab Preferences, but spend your preferences and the last used tab is less convenient when they are in the same window.

Assuming you mean the Windows Advanced System Settings screen, then right click on my computer and choose Properties. On the left side of the screen, you will see a link for the advanced system settings.

I tried to open a Web site as a link from another site and I get a new tab that says:
awclick.php (the Image GIF 1 x 1 pixels)
I can open the Web site without clicking on a link to it simply by typing the address, but as this is a cashback site that I'm the link it does not help!
Hiya,
I don't get a GIF as Bodspice mentioned above, but I'm left with a blank page that has the following URL:
I use Windows XP and Avast firewall as an anti-virus.
I tested it on Chrome, it took me to the page immediately without any problem.
No idea why and how to get rid of this problem? I'm not keen on the use of Chrome and prefer Firefox.
Thanks in advance.

I think it's really a feature request, but I don't see a forum for this. I used to use firefox almost exclusively, but switched to chrome when I started working freelance for a couple of different companies - the identities of chrome feature really helps me keep my sanity by having a unique identity for each company. However, a problem has recently developed with chrome which brought me back to firefox. The profile under firefox feature seems to have gotten much better since I made the first move, and I'm pretty happy with the way it works... with one exception:
With firefox, clicking on a link in another application, always opens in the default profile. With chrome, she would always open in the browser window that was most recently active. It's a very intuitive behavior, because everything I do in the other application (e.g. thunderbird, evernote, Skype) is almost always linked to whatever browser window, I had finally opened.
Any chance to do this implemented? Or maybe there is already a way to do this? I found the following related topics, but neither helped with this issue:
https://support.Mozilla.org/en-us/questions/981608?ESAB=a & As = AAQ
https://support.Mozilla.org/en-us/questions/983341?ESAB=a & As = AAQThe 'solution' to this topic is that there is no real solution so that the owner of this thread wants to happen.

How to open the mobile firefox error console?
Hello! I developed a Web site for android devices, and for my case Firefox exceeds all other browsers. But the problem is that I don't know how to open the error console, which is absolutely necessary for a developer.
I've seen some guides like this:
https://quality.Mozilla.org/docs/mobile-Firefox/Firefox-mobile-enabling-the-error-console/
that seems rather useful. However, I can't open the "preference" as he says.Any suggestions are welcome. I'm open if you want to use the console via a remote computer, as doing the Opera or Chrome; or simply view all on the mobile device itself. I'm also happy if anyone knows how to open the preferences window. I use Firefox 15 on Samsung Galaxy Tab.
Thank you ~!

This problem has only just begun and I don't know why. When I click the icon to open the Firefox browser, my homepage tab opens and another new tab opens to the sides of my Home Page tab. I checked and none are tube not characters in my address of the home page.
This seems to take place (e.g., Firefox opens my home page AND a new tab at startup - unsolved).
In case one of your extensions is in question, could test you mode without failure of Firefox? It is a standard diagnostic tool to disable some advanced features of Firefox and extensions. More info: questions to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode.
You can restart Firefox in Mode safe help
Help > restart with disabled modules (Flash and other plugins still works)
In the dialog box, click on 'Start mode safe' (not Reset)
Any difference when using the Home key or open a new window (Ctrl + n)?

How can I activate Firefox options?
Cannot modify the Firefox options - page but it's frozen. I use Windows 10 and Firefox 40.0.2.
If the startup of Firefox in safe mode does not help then do a clean reinstall.
Do a clean reinstall and delete the program folder before Firefox to (re) install a new copy of the current version of Firefox.
- Download the installer of Firefox and save the file to the desktop
https://www.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/all/
If possible to uninstall your current version of Firefox to clean the Windows registry and settings in the security software.
- Do NOT remove the "personal data" when you uninstall your current version of Firefox, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data such as bookmarks and passwords including data profiles created by other versions of Firefox.
Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
- (32-bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
- (Windows 64 bit) "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla.
- It is important to remove the Firefox program folder to delete all the files and make sure that there is no problem with the files that were the remains after uninstallation.
- http://KB.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a uninstall and (re) install, but do NOT delete personal data when you uninstall Firefox which removes all Firefox profile folders and you lose your data.

How to open the H.265 duplicator of Blackmagic design video clips
How to open the H.265 duplicator of Blackmagic design video clips.
You could try VLC.
If you mean for editing then unfortunately Apple is very, very backward these days in terms of codec support. You will probably need to look at Adobe first place.
Its a bit of chicken and eggs at the moment, we do not know if the reason for Final Cut Pro X is neglected is because the Mac Pro has not been upgraded, or have Apple decided to abandon the Mac Pro, because they are more interested in market Pro at all.

As soon as I opened the Firefox Start Page, all my favorites have been posted on the left side. I accidentally hit something, and now all my favorites have disappeared.
For your safety, you must do a lot of software updates. You may be holding back for some reason any. Let us know what it is because there may be a fix or workaround now.
To update to the 19 of Firefox, you can use the "Check for updates" button here:
Menu help > about Firefox
To update your Adobe PDF and Shockwave Flash plugins and check for other obsolete plugins, you can use this page:
https://www.Mozilla.org/en-us/pluginCheck/
I know it's tedious, but don't let slip too long or you might get up to have to rebuild everything (the curse of your lack of backups, and if you do regular backups).
