I have just reset Firefox, are my Add ons in the 'old Firefox data' folder and how to find them?
How can I find my Add ons in the old data file?
If you have a problem with delta-search then also make sure to remove the user.js file in the Firefox profile folder when they are present.
You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:
- Help > troubleshooting information > profile directory: see file (Linux: open the directory;) Mac: View in the Finder)

My FF browser was weird, so I did a Reset. My whole FF Ftp program has been removed. I installed the addon FF Ftp after the reset. I need to know how to return the file fireFTPsites.dat from the folder "Old data Firefox" browser worm FF 26. I have the latest version of FF on my windows xp desktop.
Unfortunately, I don't have a master list of my client user ftp & pws.
I am a novice. I read everything that in the Support section and really need help on how to get ftp info in the folder of old data from FF and get this info usable FTP again. Thank you.
I think you should copy these 3 files from your old profile folder to the current.
- fireFTPsites.dat
- signons3.txt
- signons.SQLite
The second and third files are your saved passwords. Note that replace your current signons3.txt and signons.sqlite files will replace any password that you have registered in your profile.
To open your active profile folder, you can use either:
- Help > troubleshooting information
- type or paste everything: in the address bar and press Enter
Then in the first table, click on the view file"" button. Keep this folder open, switch to Firefox and the output.
Copy the 3 files from the old profile on your desktop folder in your new folder. Make sure that you do not copy the other way, for obvious reasons!
Then restart Firefox. Success?

Hi, I have just reset my Firefox and he lost ALL the TABS at the top. Bookmarks, history, leadership, Edit and Options tabs are GONE. I don't know that I named all right, but they ARE GONE. Please tell me how to get back them. Thanks, Chris

The toolbars are still on display in your browser?
If you still have the address bar, right click on any part that is not a text box or the icon, or if you do not like that of any space right click on the three horizontal lines on the right side of the address bar window. This should show some options, click on 'Menu Bar' and the tabs you are missing should appear.
As a side note, usually if these options are missing, your icon of firefox in the upper left corner of the window should look different (being a rectangular button itself as opposed to an icon), and the 'file', 'Edition', 'Bookmarks', etc., are found after clicking on this button.
Hope that helps.

I have just updated Firefox, but seems to have lost the menu on top left of the page (very useful) who had a number of elements, including the 'bookmarks', 'tools' etc.. On the far left of this 4/5 menu item is the logo of Mozilla.
Can you please tell me how to get it back?
Hi Peter, to activate different bars on and outside, including the Menu bar, you can use one of the following methods to view the list of the toolbar, and then select the desired bar (s) there:
- Right click on a place empty on the tab bar (or the button '+')
- Press the Alt key to activate the classic menu bar > view > toolbars
- in customize mode > show/hide toolbars (see: Customize Firefox commands, buttons, and toolbars)
To activate the menu bar, toolbar bookmarks or other bars, click it in the list.
Is - that you are looking for?
If something isn't quite right, it is possible that an extension has been tweaking the menu/toolbar area...

My computer crashed (blue screen) and when it restarted a box came asking me to update Firefox. I clicked on OK (thought he was just trying to restore the session) and I have now lost all my favorites, passwords registered etc. There is no 'old Firefox data' folder anywhere on my system - help! is there a way I can get it all back without doing a system restore? I am running Windows 7.
Hi, you can try it for only bookmarks: first open the bookmarks > show all bookmarks > import and backup > restore and see if you have a backup there.
If not and the other favorites, please see.
If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.

To get the glowing edges and the sketches, do not download any extra on addition.
Once you have downloaded the latest version of Photoshop, open an image, go to filter > filter Gallery.
Here, you will get the option glowing edge and sketch.

I've upgraded to a newer version of iTunes. When I opened the new iTunes, all of these songs randomly appeared in my iTunes playlist! I have NO idea where they came from. Why they are on my computer, and how to remove them from my iTunes?
I think iTunes might be showing your iCloud music purchases. Go to the menu bar, and unselect display-> show iCloud music purchases.

People with disabilities Add ons for the last pass and XMarks running Windows 10
Last pass. E Web and XMarks modules disabled on my PC using windows 10. My Mac uses the last pass, XMarks E-Weband and it still works. Why are they add ons disabled on the PC, not Mac. I've used these all day and if Firefox will continue to turn off these three very important modules, I'll use another browser.
You have posted here with Firefox 41, which is a Beta version.
Is your Mac using Firefox 40 / 40.0.2 the current release version?Not all extensions are compatible with the preliminary versions, such as the Beta, depends on the particular extension and if the developer of the extension supports the beta versions of Firefox.

I do App Tabs they are NOT open, and I can find them when I closed and reopened FF4.
App Tabs are supposed to stay open, available whenever you open FF4. They are not. I have make them and close. When I reopen it, they aren't there. I can't find anything to find them. 'Help' does not recognize "tab app" at all, despite my version being listed as 4.0.1.
If you cannot locate the Firefox profile folder and then use this button:
