• After the last update of Firefox, youtube videos do not play. The answers I've found are not relevant or too complicated.

  After the last update of Firefox, youtube videos do not play. The answers I've found are not relevant or too complicated.

  Hi Cbella, YouTube is generally used with an HTML5 player, who is a player who does not use a plugin video in MP4 format (for example, it does not use the Flash plugin).

  Now, I based this assertion on Windows, Mac may vary.

  Could you do two tests for me?

  Test #1:

  To verify which player you see (which does work), try a right click or Ctrl + click on the YouTube Player and check the "context menu" that rises. If it's the Flash, there will be a menu short, referring to the Flash on the last line. If you do not see that, if you get a regular menu of Firefox, it's probably the HTML5 player.

  Are what player you?

  Test #2:

  If you open the following test page, which videos to play?

  http://www.quirksmode.org/HTML5/tests/video.html

  • The video "H.264/MP4" play?
  • The video "WebM" play?

  Thank you.

  Also, you can check if your Flash plugin is up to date? You can use the site Mozilla Plugin check for this (please ignore the other plug-ins page wants you to update at the moment avoid making the situation more complicated):

• Many problems of navigation of Web pages since the update to Firefox 41

  Since the last major update to Firefox a few weeks ago, I had problems during the use of the buttons such as home, end, Pg Up, Pg down when scrolling through Web pages.

  If I press the end, it must be placed towards the bottom of the page, but it usually scrolls a little distance or doesn't do anything. When I'm way down on a Web page, press home should take you to the top of the page. However, he did this on rare occasions. He general scrolls upward further DOWN on the page, scrolls a little lower than the top or doesn't do anything.

  PG. PREC and PG. Prev are similar as well. PG down repeatedly scrolls wayyyyyyy upward or down and Pg up wayyyy goes upward or down... or nothing at all.

  Updating to FF 41.0.2, I had hoped that the problem has been resolved, but alas, the question remains, and so I decided to post this. I tested this on other browsers such as Chrome and MS Edge and they use keys properly.

  Any advice? Thank you.

  Actually, I * think * I just found the problem. I have keyboard navigation and you had a few weeks for technical reasons. That is almost certainly interfere with the navigation of the Web page. I realized the question after going into safe mode. Thanks for the help!

• Hello. I installed the latest update of Firefox and when I start a new tab page displays not now my entry from google line.please help.tks

  Hello. I installed the latest update of Firefox and when I start a new tab page displays not now my google input line. I use Windows 10. Until the recent update (v4.1.01) each time I started a new tab the new page would show the google search entry line which is my default. Can help you to restore this feature? TKS

  Hi, 41 of Firefox, you must use the add-on tab override (browser.newtab.url replacement), to make changes to the page tab.

  Once installed, open the Add-ons (Ctrl + Shift + A) Manager > Extensions, and then look for the new tab override and click Options to set your preference.

  Notice, if you want only the new tab to be the same as your home page, you can use the Add on new tab homepage instead.

  You will then need to restart Firefox for all changes to take effect.

  If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.

• I've recently updated my firefox to my laptop. No longer can I do a search with Google without getting a message that the address of the site/is not secure. How to cancel?

  I've recently updated my firefox to my laptop. No longer can I do a search with Google without getting a message that the address of the site/is not secure. How to cancel? The only search that allows me to see whatever it is is Yahoo that I prefer not to use. In addition, I have to click through a series of tabs to make sure that I know that Yahoo does not feel that the site is secure before it connects. I must tell you that I have strongly dislikes this upgrade and want to return to the old Firefox.

• Automatic update of Firefox never find newer versions. Why?

  Hi, I had a problem for a lot of versions now (at least two): set to automatic update never find newer versions. When I first noticed this problem, I noticed also automatic updates are disabled in preferences. The reactivation of them would make them market back after that I checked the updates (on Firefox).

  So I went and:
  -restarted with modules disables
  -updated Firefox
  -trashed active - update.xml and updates.xml

  What's wrong?

  Thank you all. Autoupdater finally works again.

• Do I have to re - install my modules manually after updating to Firefox?

  Hi, I've recently upgraded to Firefox 39 (I still have to upgrade as soon as updates are available). However, as a result of the update all my modules disappeared. There is a folder on my desktop called old data Firefox which I assume, contains details of the previous installation, including Add-ons. Is it possible to automatically restore add-ons, or do I have to manually download and re - install? I understand that some of the Add-ons is perhaps not compatible with the current version of Firefox, but some of them will be always compatible.

  When you update to Firefox, it automatically checks your modules and updates compatible versions where possible. If an add-on cannot be updated and is no longer compatible, Firefox it turns off.

• I can record is more than all of the new bookmarks after update to Firefox 40.0.2. I have over 1000 bookmarks and also use xMarks.

  I can record is more than all of the new bookmarks after update to Firefox 40.0.2.
  I have over 1000 bookmarks and also use xMarks.
  I tried to remove 5 bookmarks and save a new bookmark, but it does not work.
  When I click on the bookmark star, stars in the bookmarks folder jumps, but does not record, it does not offer the possibility of filing in the subfolder right it me and the star is not awarded (there should be one filled with stars when the Web site is updated bookmark)

  Thank you for your help. I tried the maintenance of places without success. I have disabled xMarks, but it made no difference, I couldn't save all new bookmarks. I went on the site help above and deleted the "places.sqlite" file and recreates a new file, but it didn't work. I uninstalled Firefox full using IOBit Uninstaller and reinstalled, but I found this program does not delete the profile folder (used to have a checked during uninstall of Firefox, but it seems to have disappeared in the latest versions). The problem persisted.

  Finally, I took a screenshot of all my addons. Then, I uninstalled Firefox again, then delete the entire folder profiles (located very usefully described in the second link above https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Bookmarks+not+saved#w_fix-the-bookmarks-file )
  I reinstalled Firefox, reinstalled xMarks and connected and transferred all my favorites, I reinstalled all my previous addons and ALTO - it now everything works perfectly!

  Thank you for your help

• How to stop updates of Firefox

  So we have this system of helpdesk at work called cure (I make no bones about this, it should be called disease at least in the form my company has put into it) but that's what we have, I can't change that. I generally use Chrome to create changes in the remedy, but I need to use Firefox to create work orders because Chrome doesn't handle well in the menus of the repair.

  Now, Firefox, which is my browser of choice in all other circumstances, work well with the remedy (I'm not convinced that anything done) and when it updates, currently at version 39.xx, he continues to work with the cure... something to do with the different-Hellman encryption. I can solve this problem by reinstalling v38.05 but then it puts day and goes pear shaped. So I uninstall and reinstall and it works again... until it updates.

  The solutions I've tried are (each time preceded by a version 39.x uninstall and reinstallation of v38.05):

  1. in the Firefox Options / Advanced assured that "never search for updates (not recommended: security risk)" has been selected.

  2 custom install Firefox v 38.05 with no maintenance service (the above, Options / Advanced settings seem to be maintained throughout the uninstall/reinstall).

  3 custom install Firefox v 38.05 with no service maintenance and that all executables and dll read-only. Once again all of the above is the same.

  4 custom install Firefox v 38.05 without maintenance service, deleted the files maintenanceservice.exe and maintenanceservice_installer.exe from the Mozilla Firefox folder and renamed updater.exe updater.old. Go to help / about Firefox and deliberately run an update. This "installed" but, the browser is restarted, brought a dialog box saying there is a problem (I don't remember the message). Allowed the browser to download the new full version, which forced a second reboot and an error dialog box that I then closed.

  5 restart Firefox after you create a file user.js in profile folder that contains:
  turn off the updates of the application:
  user_pref ("app.update.enabled", false);

  6. check about: config is disabled for the automatic update:
  App.Update.auto - false
  App.Update.Enabled - false
  App.Update.Silent - false

  That's all... all this absolutely does not prevent updates of Firefox and, as far as I can tell, I did almost everything it is humanly possible to prevent update Firefox outside ditching it completely (which I certainly don't want to do) but there seems to be no way I can stop the update of Firefox.

  I'm sure it's 'fault' of BMC Remedy, but I can't change what makes the company, I'm just a small cog in a big machine, but I can't (or should be) change things on my own system. I can not just when it comes to Firefox which, in addition to being frustrating, no sense... why the Mozilla team would create a product with options to stop the updates that the application simply ignores?

  Well, hang on, it sounds as if the real problem is that the server tries to use an obsolete encryption encryption algorithm that is vulnerable to the attack of the impasse that was in the news earlier this year.

  What does that mean?

  Even if you trust the server, a "dead end" attack compromised the security of your individual connection on the server, a lowering of the protection normally provided by SSL to a level that is easily cracked and read by others on the network. This is why Firefox protects you to establish this connection.

  What can you do now?

  The best solution is to update the server. Please ask for the protection of everyone! However, I suspect this is out of your control and could not happen soon. To work around the problem, you can try to disable these old ciphers in your Firefox, which I hope it will force the server to try some more secure encryption algorithms when connecting with you. Here's how:

  (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 dhe and make a pause so that the list is filtered

  (3) double-click the preference security.ssl3.dhe_rsa_aes_128_sha to true to false (disable Firefox to use this encryption)

  (4) double click on the security.ssl3.dhe_rsa_aes_256_sha preference from true to false (disable Firefox to use this encryption)

  Try again the server; You may need to reload the page using Ctrl + Shift + r to ignore information in cache.

  Success?

  This indicates that the site is by default an obsolete encryption encryption algorithm that is vulnerable to the attack of 'Blocking' which was in the news earlier this year.

  You can turn off these old present in Firefox to try to force the site to his game. Here's how:

  (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 dhe and make a pause so that the list is filtered

  (3) double-click the preference security.ssl3.dhe_rsa_aes_128_sha to true to false (disable Firefox to use this encryption)

  (4) double click on the security.ssl3.dhe_rsa_aes_256_sha preference from true to false (disable Firefox to use this encryption)

• My new sites pinned tab only display full-screen mode. What happened only since the update of Firefox.

  I have my best sites 'pinned' to the new tab. Since the update of Firefox do show that the first four sites (top line) and I can't drag/release those missing bookmarks.

  I have just discovered that the sites are still there but only appear when I select the mode "full screen".

  Is there a way I can restore the page to show two lines of pinned sites without being full screen mode please?

  It seems that there is a regression with 39 Firefox on the new tab page. A bug report has been filed on 4 and the triage team responded.

  I saw the same thing with the difference in mode full-screen during the test of this "change"; the 'missing' line appear in full-screen - but with the resolution of my screen, I could see two rows of tiles, the 3rd rank was not missing mode full screen.

  Overall, I think you should try the new tab extension tools and see how you like it.
  https://addons.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/addon/new-tab-tools/

  I use that in a number of my Firefox profiles. Profile where I checked this problem which has been mentioned in a number of discussions of the forum over the weekend that I use rarely - I use it see how Firefox works as "installed", before making a change.
