• Hi, my places.sqlite file size is 30 720 KB I reached the maximum size, is there a maximum size for this. Visited links are is more changing color.

  Hello
  My places.sqlite file size is 30 720 KB I reached the maximum size, is there a maximum size for this.
  Suddenly the visited links don't change is no longer the font color, that I prepare for an exam, I need visited issues to change color, to follow up on issues that I ended. But if I delete a few days of history, then again once, most visited links change color and then it stops, it seems that something is getting full and not able to accommodate more? Why my visited links don't change color after a number of visits? I would like to make a back up of the file places.sqlite. So I tried everything to remove the profile, uninstalling reinstalling, creating a new profile, and then copy paste places.sqlite etc, but as mentioned after a few visits, visited links is no longer change color, if I delete a few days in history and then a few visits is again change color and then stop again, so what should I increase so that my quota of visited links is increased , I also tried tweaking about: config and there has been no result. Although I was not really convinced that _pages growing brower.history_max (don't remember the name, but I'm sure you get the idea) will help.
  Seems that while my visited links change color, quota is met and only if I delete the history of a few days will I get some links most visited to change color. Can someone enlighten us? As mentioned that my places.sqlite file size is 30 720 KB so I think maybe this has something to do with it? Would be very grateful if someone could help me. Thank you.

  Sorry it is not looking good.

  1. Unlike bookmarks history is not saved in Firefox.
  2. There is a possibility using Windows.
  3. Sync is not expected to back up things until the synchronization server
  4. If places.sqlite does not sort itself you may have to re-create remove it. You will lose your history, but can still access indirectly IF you have saved a copy of the appropriate
  5. Different databases to try to create new profiles
  1. History
     is rather less robust than bookmarks, you should deliberately somehow return it upward, but it's too late now
  2. Earlier versions of Windows
     This is really the last chance. Make sure you have some places.sqlite you saved. Always before and after any attempt to restore the backup. Windows must be able to provide a previous version. One of these versions may be usable as is; or can be used after a repair with housekeeping. Of course, this is not the latest version but it should help.
  3. Sync is not a server backup service.
     Sync is intended to save on another device, no backup is the fact that the second device then contains synchronized information. IIRC Sync development ceased, and the replacement when available may include a server backup option.
  4. Recreate the database of bookmarks (including history)
     Unfortunately, recess can only use saved bookmarks, there is no saved history to use. Once the database is re-created, it will continue to store the history but it loses the existing history. This time take steps to save on a regular basis.

  5. Use the new profiles for database testing.
  
  To simplify comparison of the results of the database different files create one or more new additional profiles. Then try to smash the places.sqlite file into the test profile with any other places.sqlite, you want to try. Allows you to directly compare the databases, without seeking to use sync and without changing the Firefox profile work unnecessarily. You can keep a reference profile of studies with the best of the profiles of any shows results of history; According to the best recreated or corrupted database is.
  • Use the Profile Manager to create and delete profiles Firefox
  • CARE, do not rename or delete profiles created once or use anything other than empty folders when they are created. Don't nest in the other profiles. (At least until you know exactly how it behaves - post back if you never consider such actions)

• Possibility to change the color of visited links

  Hello. Y at - it an option on the occasion of visited links a different color on the Android version? On PC, I can do this via Firefox option or modules. But I can't find this option on Android.

  Thank you
  Tom

  There a preference for the color of the link visited that you can change by using about: config, but on websites that have their own colors, it will have no effect in itself. Here are the steps:

  Part i: the hexadecimal code

  If you want to use the same color as your desktop version of Firefox, you can find here in this way:

  (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

  (2) in the search above the list box, type or paste to visit and make a break while the list is filtered

  (3) take note of the value of the browser.visited_color preference that should be a sign # follow-up of six characters in the range of 0-9, A - F

  Part II: Change your setting on Android

  (1) open a new tab to Subject: config (type about: config the Awesomebar and hit the arrow go or tap Enter).

  You can bookmark it for easy future access.

  (2) in the search box, type visit and make a pause while Firefox filter list

  3 scroll to browser.visited_color and touch the preference, then tap next to the end of the existing value and edit a new, then type away from control to save.

  If you switch to your other tab and test on a site that is not substitute colors, you should see the change.

  Success?

• I don't want to browse the articles of wonk 100 billion. I want a living person to tell me, in plain language, how to add shortcuts to my homepage.

  I want to add a simple shortcut to my home page. Your instructions say yo click on the menu, click page, add shortcuts. No 'page' option when I click on the menu. So now what? And how to do the unnecessary and embarrassing search disappear when I open a new tab. I have REPEATEDLY décliqués it and chose only Bing. Yet, it returns. I hate it. I don't want to. Please advise, in plain language, how simply to solve these problems.

  Hi weejindy, these are the steps to add a shortcut to a home on Android screen and not the instructions for Windows. For Windows, see my reply in your thread earlier: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1062509

  The new integrated tab of Firefox page has a search box set to your search engine by default over a number of thumbnails of pages you have visited. Is this sound like the display page when you open a new tab?

  Here's how you can change your new tab page:

  (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

  (2) in the search above the list box, type or paste newtab and make a pause so that the list is filtered

  (3) double-click the preference browser.newtab.url and enter your favorite page:

  • (Default) page thumbnails = > subject: newtab
  • Blank tab = > subject: empty
  • Built-in Firefox homepage = > topic: welcome
  • Any other page = > full URL of the page

  Press Ctrl + t to open a new tab and check that it worked. Fixed?

  If the problems persist, some potential diagnoses and remedies:

  If Firefox will not let you change this setting: you can have what is called SearchProtect on your system. This must be removed the control panel.

  Firefox if allows you to save your changes, but he doesn't know: one of your extensions may be the substitution of her. You can consult, disable and/or remove extensions on page modules. Either:

  • CTRL + SHIFT + a
  • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

  In the left column, click Extensions. Then, take a critical look on the list on the right and turn off (or remove) something unknown.

  If the modification works during your session, but during the next startup is return to the unwanted page: you could have a user.js file in your personal settings Firefox (your Firefox profile folder). This article describes how to track down and delete the file: How to fix preferences that will not save.

  A little luck?

• How to remove unwanted plugins (and no I don't want to read all the articles unrelated who never answer your question)?

  I want to erase the unwanted plugins in Fire Fox. A plugin has even a warning about its use does not (Java Deployment Toolkit). But every time I ask 'how to remove a plugin?', I get redirected to an article that does not answer the question. And then the cycle starts again without ever actually answer the question.

  IT IS NECESSARY TO UNINSTALL FIREFOX TO DELETE A PLUGIN?

  Hello 4646tm, I understand your frustration. Here's how to remove a plugin:
  Click the menu and then click on Add ons, which looks like a piece of a puzzle.

      Type about:plugins into the Location bar and press Enter to display the About Plugins page.
     Each entry in the About Plugins page will have "File:" and "Path:", showing the name and location of the plugin file. Use Windows Explorer to navigate to the folder shown for the plugin you want to remove.
     Rename the file to add an X in front of the filename (for instance, npswf32 becomes Xnpswf32).
  

  You said that you do not want links, but I'll give you a couple just in case you do not want to uninstall the plugins manually. These links are to pages that tell you how to run the uninstall it please do not hesitate to tell me if you think that they are not useful.

  Uninstall Adobe Flash - Windows

  Uninstall QuickTime - Windows Vista/7

  Follow the instructions:
  Download Microsoft Silverlight (instructions to uninstall also)

  I just put a couple of the most common out there, if you have a specific plugin you don't want it please tell me and I can dig to the top of the page for it, also you can do manual uninstall I gave you.

  Have a great day!

• Change the color of visited links

  Firefox 35.0.01
  Intel Core i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40 GHz, 32.0 GB of RAM, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 580

  I recently did a 'refresh' (?) on Firefox and my visited links are is more changing color. I went to the Options - content - fonts & colors - colors... and the link colors option seems correct, but when I click a link it changes color to indicate that it is visited.

  Make sure that you are not Firefox running in permanent private browsing mode (don't remember history).

  • https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/private+browsing
  • Tools > Options > privacy > Firefox will be: "use the custom settings for history".
  • : Uncheck the [] "always use the private browsing mode.

  You can also check the layout.css.visited_links_enabled pref on the topic: config page and make sure that it has the default value.
  You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
  You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.

• When I open a page in the history, I don't want to see the same page

  Is it possible to have firefox know that I'm looking for a page or more, but I don't want to see them once again posted because I do not know if I already searched on this page.

  Also is there a way to indicate the date and time could tell me those I have already opened.

  Perhaps the column number of visit in history (library) Manager, via views > columns

• My home page displays a side tab. Don't want the tab. I have, dating back to IP utill it is corrected.

  my homepage is ixquick.com and don't want or use Add ons. Only in the last month has this annoying tab been appearing requiring an extra keystrock everytime I go foxfire.

  Is the new empty tab or does show content of a particular site?

  Another user had a second tab to open (white) and it is caused by one of its extensions. Even if you don't remember a facility, they can sneak in when you install other software.

  Please check the essential or unrecognized extensions on page modules. Either:

  • CTRL + SHIFT + a
  • Firefox orange (or the Tools menu) button > Add ons

  In the left column, click Extensions. Then, in case of doubt, disable (or delete).

  Typically, a link will appear above at least an extension disabled to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the page modules and click one of the links in the last step.

  That get rid of the extra tab?

  Note: If there is no button Delete, the extension has been installed outdoors for Firefox. You can check the Control Panel, uninstall a program. If you click on the column heading "installed on" sort by date and scroll down for all the time, the problem started, you might be able to spot the problem.

• How to stop the notices for a download, that I DON'T WANT?

  The last time I downloaded an update, my computer would not work properly and crashed several times. I have a better than average anti-virus program and I don't want your update and I'm tired of seeing reviews for him pop up! I can always go back to IE if you do not want my patronage.

  There are some add-ons that torment you with update of fake messages that lead to malware or other problems. Please take a look at your page of modules and disable all non-essential or unrecognized modules on these two tabs:

  Firefox orange (or the Tools menu) button > addons > Plugins category
  
  Firefox orange (or the Tools menu) button > addons > Extensions category

  Typically, a link will appear above at least an extension disabled to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links in the last step.

  To adjust own Firefox update settings, see this article: Advanced panel - accessibility, navigation, network, updates and other settings in advanced Firefox.

• I want to disable the smart folders... I don't need and really don't want one of them

  Firefox 13.0.1
  I don't want to follow my latest bookmarks or tags. I consider him as an intrusion and the process must end and all stored values faded. I should be able to navigate normally and do not have the browser what I bookmark or tag tracking. I consider these elements followed, and is usually done under the name of "help the ignorant." Stop it. I do not socialize online, nor do I need a browser 'fool proof' followed by what I have favorite (I don't tag)... have a few bookmarks. I studied everything I could find online and about: config can be set to false, which simply creates another of the little monsters. Stop it! You improve this thing until I won't be able to use it and to find a browser that isn't to track 'for me. If it is 'fool proof', only fools will use.

  IE also stores the data in the registry on the visited areas.
  
  Firefox stores only the data in the database places.sqlite file.
  
  The last visit date and County of bookmarks and history items visit part of these data.
  
  If you don't want Firefox to store data, then you can switch to the mode of browsing private, as displayed above.

  • https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/private+browsing

  Smart folders show a list of sites that is generated from the file places.sqlite via a specific query database, so that data is already stored and the record makes it visible.
  
  You can remove the query smart folder if you do not want to see such a query result, but the removal of the individual elements of bookmark or history in such a list removes the database locations.
