I can't get Firefox to restore the normal size. I tried everything, including put it back. Only some pages Web like Facebook is great & it will not be reset, but in IE, it's normal. If it please help because I hate IE & really don't want to use it

When I open Facebook and a few other Web pages, the size of the screen is large and some of the information is not displayed. I have tried everything to reset the size and it does not work. I even zoom and missing information have not appeared. But if I connect in IE is fine and all the info is there and are usable. I hate IE and do not want to use then please help me to solve this problem with Firefox.

You can rename the file happy - prefs.sqlite content - prefs.sqlite.old (or remove the file) in the profile folder to reset the zoom on every site page.

You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:

  • Had to reload operating system and applications data, now can't get firefox to recognize the profile data

    My C drive (disk solid state drive), which held my operating system and data from the app crashed. I had it replaced, updated Win 7 to win 10 and have downloaded Firefox. I was able to restore my profile from a Mozy backup data and copied in the Firefox folder. But Firefox resolutely refuses to recognize. I tried using the recovery data from an old profile, but no advantage help page. Tried to use the Manager profile, but without success. When I go to Troubleshooting Information and click on file/Show profile, it comes up with a list of files (files starting with bookmarkbackups, which however is empty, down for webapps, which has the file inside webapps.json), then the files from addons.json down through xulstore.json and the file places.sqlite is 10 240 KB Although there is something in there, but Firefox resolutely refuses to acknowledge my profile, bookmarks, etc..

    I'm out of options and ripping my hair out trying to get all my favorites, in which I have a lot of information such as the authentication of data for many favorite sites. It is frustrating that all the information seems to be there, but Firefox ignore all.

    Can anyone help?

    Such a backup is perhaps a ZIP archive containing all the files into it if it is not a real file, but only one file.

    Note is that you replace the file places.sqlite with a copy of the backup that you have to make sure to remove existing places.sqlite - shm and temporary files to SQLite places.sqlite - wal.
    Ditto for the other SQLite files that you are restoring.

    Have you checked the application.ini file in the backup?

    Have you tried the Firefox zoom feature? Font size and zoom - increase the size of web pages
    You can "zoom in" all sites using this add-on: NoSquint. After setting your overall zoom level, you can still adjust the zoom on different sites.
    After the installation of NoSquint, click on the % in the bar of the add-on call site preferences, then click the global settings button, then the zoom tab.

    If you do not have the bar the module displayed, you can click the new tab button ("+") or a box empty bar tab to the right of the item and choose the module bar on the shortcut menu.

    You can experiment with sizes greater than 125%, but I wouldn't not much higher than 150% unless you have a large screen high resolution.

  • How can I get Firefox to leave the faucet down on my Mac? For the moment, I have to force close down.

    I have an iMac and I'm running 10.4.6
    I am running Firefox 3.6.26

    My problem is, when I shut down my computer, Firefox is not quite, so I have to force Firefox to quit. He's not leaving when I click on leave.

    Before this problem appears, Firefox would have to smoke when I clicked on Shut down.

    Any ideas on how to solve this problem.

    No problem, happy as its all sorted out.

    Its a shame to lost your story, I hope you have recovered your bookmarks, however. If this isn't the case, I recommend trying something like FF built in harmony, or for older versions, an add-on like Xmarks to save your bookmarks.

  • How can I get my documents show the same size as the native app?

    When I type the command-1, Acrobat shows me some kind of document larger than the application that I exported.

    It of like Illustrator knows my screen is 140DPI and Acrobat thinks it is 72... or something like that.

    The thing is, a person was taking screenshots in Acrobat, to cut out a design I created in Illustrator (I saved it as a PDF, to maintain the editability of vector) and EVERYTHING came out so big. Now I realize that acrobat DOESN'T believe 100%, it means... Well, something different than what things Illustrator.

    How do both agree?

    Thank you.

  • I can't get Windows XP to open. I've tried EVERYTHING! It doesn't let me do safe mode either

    I had downloaded the upgrde to IE for IE 8 and when I rebooted I couldn't come back in XP.  I've tried EVERYTHING! Further, I had was the BSOD with the code:

    STOP: 0X0000007B (0XF79AA524, 0XC0000034, 0X00000000, 0X00000000)

    I lost the cd of restoration came with the laptop so I tried to load a XP cd I had.  When I type R it sends me right back to the black screen with the choice of safe mode.  When I hit enter to enter the installer tells me that no HD has been detected. Press F3 to exit and I immediately go to the menu of the black screen again.  What should I do?

    Thank you, thank you, thank you!  Following your suggestion to disable AHCI mode, I was finally able to enter in my screen fast to restore my system in safe mode.  I now have my windows XP back.

    Now, can I go back and enable AHCI mode or I leave him?

    Thanks again,

    Sandi

    You're welcome Sandi. Please take the time to mark my answer as the answer to help others who are looking for the site with the same question.

    You should return an enable AHCI... However, with AHCI enabled did not prevent you to go in safe mode. Many times a computer starts several loads in safe mode with command prompt, even if it does not load in safe mode any choice.

  • How can I get Firefox to accept the current Shockwave Flash (v. 18)?

    Even if I just put Flash Player update, page of the Add-ons manager says she is vulnerable and insists on the request until it activates. What gives?

    It is usually Windows XP, right, not 64 - bit?

    You can check this file:

    C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash
    

    You will find only one file from NPSWF32:

    NPSWF32_18_0_0_209.dll
    

    If Firefox does not detect it, try out Firefox and go to the top.
