  • where the fav icons are stored in the Firefox profile? You can drag and drop on the bookmarks?

    Two related issues to fav icons:

    1 where are the fav icon stored in my Firefox profile?

    2 is it not warned to drag an icon on an element of bookmark on my bookmarks (no icon) bar and it updated the icon? (I have a right-click on the bookmark and I couldn't see any field of fav icon.)

    Thank you

    Favicons are stored in the file places.sqlite and bookmarks.

    No, you cannot drag a Favicon in your bookmarks. If you drag a tab favorite icon, all that would happen is that you would be again to add the bookmark and the favicon may not be kept if it was not the first time that you have saved the first time. Try it and see what happens...

    There is no field for Favicon in the context menu of bookmark. There used to be a couple of extensions available at different times which allowed users to add a favicon to a bookmark, but it's been a while that we have seen this type of extension that was compatible.

    Neither have been updated after a Firefox update beat each at different times, and nobody has updated '3' a final which broke.

  • How can I find the Firefox profile if it has been deleted from a Mac?

    I had problems with Firefox so removed from my Mac. I tried to download the latest edition as I need to run a java applet that does not work with Safari or Google chrome. When I try to run the program after downloading it says"Firefox profile missing or inaccessible. "I need that it works if I make statements of business income. Any help welcome! Jeannette

    Note that you need to access your user account's library folder (/ users) and not the library folder in the root (/ library).

    In Mac OS X v10.7 and later versions, the file $HOME/Library is a hidden folder.

    Open Finder and use one of them:

    • Go > go to folder (command-SHIFT-G) and in the type of dialogue: ~/Library
    • Open the 'Go' menu and hold down the Option key to display the library

    Try to use the Profile Manager to create a new profile as a test to check if your profile is causing problems.

  • If I delete the Firefox profiles folder in Appdata, which would remove all my Firefox personal information such as passwords and browser history?

    Sometimes I have to bring my laptop to the computer store, but I always make sure to remove all the programs like Firefox information, just in case.
    But I read that Firefox stores all your information in an Appdata folder.
    So I was wondering, if I had to move this folder to an external hard drive and remove it from the computer, would all my information from Firefox are deleted from the computer, or is it still going to save this information elsewhere?

    And if it removes all the information, if I move the folder that I save on an external hard drive on my computer, Firefox will have access to all this information again?

    Firefox will create a new profile folder if you try to open it without having a profile folder

    Yes, you could just copy the content and then delete the original content, leaving the record. Then overwrite the content again with the contents of your backup.

  • Why the firefox profile is messed up and does not restore the tabs when you replace the Windows shell with something like bbLean

    I use Windows 8.1 x 64 but I can replace the Explorer bblean shell and when I do that firefox has issues with the profile such that cancel last closed tab or not to restore the tabs at startup.
    I was able to use the replacement of shell of bblean for years in previous versions of Windows, but he always had a weird behavior with firefox. Of course, I am currently in contact with bbLean developers working on the problem, but I would also like to hear what may be the cause of this.
    Thank you in advance.

    @guigs2
    Thanks for responding but I solved it somehow.
    'Replace the shell' means that I have deliberately change value in HKCU NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\Shell so it does not point explorer.exe but blackbox.exe.
    After the reset of my installation of windows and get rid of all programs, including firefox now I use firefox portable (not installation of vanilla from the original site) and found, I have no problem with profiles so far.

  • How can I transfer the Firefox profile from one user to another on my pc (win XP)

    At work, I use Firefox as my default browser.
    In my business, the COMPUTER administrator installed new system s/w on the companys main server and changed user names.
    So now firefox lost information (profile) I already had on my pc.
    Now in the folder "C:\Documents and Settings\", I have 2 users.
    The one with the old username and the other with the new user name
    Also I can not any connection any longer in my pc with the old username because the administrator has also changed the domain name.
    How can I transfer the profile that I had (with a lot of useful bookmarks etc.) of the former user name for the new user name?
    Thank you in advance!

  • How CHANGE you the Firefox PROFILES?

    I want to delete some nicks suggests so, when I try to log on to sites such as Verizon e-mail, incorrect suggestions (due to typos, old IDs, etc.) are no longer displayed.

    There is a help page on how to add or remove users profiles, but that's not relevant. [Note: the function "delete", as written appears as if it will remove all profiles.] I don't want to delete a profile; I want to just edit to remove the invalid user IDs.

    If you are referring to the auto fill thing, you can hover over the desired point autofill and tap on Delete on your keyboard. Delete unwanted e-mails and suggestions of AutoFill?

    If this is the case, then you can delete these two files.

    This may be due to a problem with the places.sqlite file that stores the bookmarks and history.

  • How can I stop the Firefox tabs at startup loading?

    Last month, I got a new computer, previously, I had no problems with Firefox. Now, when I run Firefox, it loads the 6 tabs that I used my first session of using Firefox, which is annoying espcially because it autoplays a YouTube page. I want my home page to launch at startup.

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

    • C:\Users\ < user > < profile > \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\.

    The folder "AppData" in Windows Vista and later versions of window 7 + and the folder "Application Data" in XP/Win2K are hidden folders.

  • How to reduce the firefox window border

    I'm trying to get rid of the "border" above the line of tabs in Firefox 36.0 in white.
    I wish that each tab to extend completely to the top of the screen so that when I push my mouse upwards and the screen limits the cursor to move more, he places the cursor on one of the tabs. For now, this puts the cursor over this border, so I then slightly down the mouse to click on the tab. Who is?
    I guess an easy css line that I can add to my Chrome folder exists, but I'm not smart enough to know what it is.
    I'm guessing that this border is a part of the line of tabs, otherwise, it can be the window border.

    Basically, I would like to get the line of tabs in Firefox to be more like Chrome, it's the height of the button red X Windows (minimum space).

    You can try to use a negative top-margin for the #TabsToolbar value in the userChrome.css file
    I'm not on Windows, so it is impossible to check what value works.

    userChrome.css:

    @namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */

#TabsToolbar { margin-top: -2px !important; }

    The file userChrome.css (UI) customization and userContent.css (Web sites) are located in the folder of chrome in the Firefox profile folder.
