Whenever I click on a shortened URL link, it goes to a page or a blank page with "object moved" and another link.
If I right click on the link (to a shortened URL) and choose "Open in a new window" link goes to the correct web page. It seems not important to know if the shortened URL in an e-mail message or a web page itself.
This just started two days after I have updated to Firefox 40.0.3 ago. Because he seemed to be more than a coincidence, I uninstalled Frefox and reinstalled version 40.0., but there is no difference in this behavior. In addition, it doesn't happen in Chrome or Safari.
jscher2000, I thought of Ghostery, too, but when I checked the most recent update was May 14. It doesn't mean that an update is now available. I'll try temp. turn it off, restart Firefox and try a few URLs in email messages that failed this week.

The font size of header and footer is still low. Last time I looked, I couldn't find a way to replace the default size of 10 others to choose a font that is intrinsically superior to Times New Roman as your default serif font. See: can I possibly enlarge the headers and footers in the "Page layout" menu of Firefox to make bigger it so I can see it better... or is this something I won't have to deal with being so SMALL. I don't check for a complementary solution; You can try looking for one on the Addons site.
As the position on the page, some printers don't allow you to get all the way at the edge of the sheet. If that's the problem, you might be able to fix in the General settings of your system for your printer dialog box. I don't see a way to access of the Mac print dialog (Firefox print dialog screenshots in this article: How to print webpages in Firefox), so that you may find in Control Panel.
If this does not work, there are certain preferences that Firefox stores with names similar to the following. In these environments, 25 = 1/4 inch (the value is divided by 100).
- Print.printer_BrandX.print_unwriteable_margin_top
- Print.printer_BrandX.print_edge_top
To modify these, you can use the subject: configuration preferences editor. In a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful. Then use some of the more unique terms (for example, unwrit or edge) to filter the list.

I can not navigate on at all. I installed 20 FF, and when I try to activate I get redirected to a support deadend page. Before the upgrade, I uninstalled the previous version, which worked very well.
Some Firefox problems can be solved by performing a clean reinstall. This means that you remove Firefox program files, and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
Note: You can print these steps or consult them in another browser.
- Download the latest version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org office and save the installer to your computer.
- Once the download is complete, close all Firefox Windows (click on quit in the file menu or Firefox).
- Remove the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
- Windows:
- C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
- C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox
- Mac: Delete Firefox in the Applications folder.
- Linux: If you have installed Firefox with the distribution-based package manager, you must use the same way to uninstall: see Install Firefox on Linux. If you have downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.
- Windows:
- Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
- Double-click on the downloaded Setup file and go through the steps in the installation wizard.
- Once the wizard is completed, click to open Firefox directly after clicking the Finish button.
Please report back to see if this helped you!

I've defined and confirmed that Firefox is my default browser. I uninstalled Firefox, restarted, set Edge as default, rebooted, reinstalled Firefox using the option 'Make Firefox the default browser' and rebooted. No matter what the settings are made and Firefox is default, when I click on a URL link, I get a dialog box "How do you want to open this file", Firefox is highlighted, I click on the check box always 'use this app' and click OK. Firefox opens and displays the page. Thereafter, whenever I click on a URL link I get the pop up and choose Firefox. It doesn't matter if a Firefox session is active or Firefox is closed. What I am doing wrong?
This was a problem when you try to set one browser by default other than IE (now Edge) on Windows. Firefox has had the most problems over the years, trying to get himself defined as default browser. I can't tell if Chrome has had the same problem either. But I feel that they have had a hard time with her also.
In the interest to see what works and what does not work, could you not install the Chrome browser and by setting the default value to see if it does indeed remain the browser by default when you click on any url? Please test the links of the opening a few times before you say that it works without problem.
I'll be tracking of any workaround to set Firefox as the default browser in the meantime. But, be aware that Microsoft is the enemy here. As they do on board the default browser at any price.

How can I set tabs to create a new tab whenever I click a link?
I want to put the navigation tabs so that whenever I click on a link, it will open in a new tab adjacent to the existing tab.
Middle-click or CTRL + left - click on a link or bookmark to open it in a new tab (click Middle = press the scroll of the mouse wheel). You can also right click on a link or a bookmark and choose "Open in New Tab".
To open new tabs next to the currently selected tab, you must set/check a hidden preference:
- Type of topic: config in the URL bar and press the Enter key.
- If you see warning, accept it (promise to be careful).
- Filter = browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent
- Look at the column 'Value' (false= open to end, true= open after the current tab). Value = true is the default value.
- Double-click this preference to switch the value from true to false and false to true
- Restart Firefox (file > restart Firefox)
- See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/About:config

What is an external application?
You can override how external links are open via the browser.link.open_newwindow.override.external preference.
The meaning of the value of the browser.link.open_newwindow.override.external is the same from browser.link.open_newwindow

I dragged a URL in the URL box - in this case a 2nd Yahoo! email login address so I could quickly switch between accounts - in the toolbar links (the one with the "Most visited" link.
Noting that the new URL link didn't have a Yahoo! icon I right click on the link and found that there is no option to change the URL link icon to, well, anything (!) as we can do for most of the files in Windows Explorer.
I could change the text label of the link without problem.
Is he buried somewhere else in Firefox the ability to do so and if so where?
If not can this option included in the dialog box properties of links in the future, please?
I would be really grateful one answer I know that my question has not fallen into the "bit bucket".
See you soon,.
