How can I get Firefox to pass its downloads to Speed Download as all the other browsers do (it used to be able to do this)?

Until a few months ago All our browsers could automatically pass their downloads to "Speed Download" for downloading, very handy to have them all working in one place.
Now after recent updated in the last six months or so Firefox alone no longer does this but insists on using its own download setting.
how can I get it to respond to Speed Download as before, along with Google Chrome, Camino and Safari?

Have you tried the update to Fast Dial, version 4.2.1 or later? It should override the built-in new tab page: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/fast-dial-5721/ ''(Note: I haven't tested it myself)''
If you are using a similar add-on that isn't the same "Fast Dial", which one is it?

  • How can I get Firefox to fill my screen? There are gaps in the top and bottom of my screen, thanks.

    I dropped my laptop recently and messed up the hard drive so after installing new hard drive I reloaded win 7 and Mozilla Firefox. When Firefox loads up there is a 1" plus gap on the top and a half inch gap at the bottom of all pages. How can I get the browser to fill the screen? Thanks.

    This website is using autocomplete=off to prevent Firefox from saving and filling the name and password.
    You can remove autocomplete=off with a bookmarklet to make Firefox save names and passwords and other form data.

  • How can I get Firefox 6.0 to STOP being my default browser?

    I need to used Internet Explorer as my default browser for work applications. But since upgrading to Firefox 6.0 this morning, it insists on opening all my work applications when I click on them. I've tried going into Internet Explorer and telling it to check that it is the default browser but that does not seem to have any effect.
    How do I get Firefox to relinquish its hold my work applications? Is uninstalling Firefox my only solution?

    Firefox 3 will not run on OS X 10.3.9, it requires at least 10.4
    Try one of these browsers to see if you can access Hotmail - [http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/seamonkey1.1.19/ SeaMonkey 1.1.19] or [http://caminobrowser.org/download/ Camino 1.6.11]

  • How can I set home page for a new tab? how can i get firefox to open the home page every time i open a new tab in Windows vista home basic??

    How can I set home page for a new tab? how can i get firefox to open the home page every time i open a new tab in Windows vista home basic??
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    Firefox can have multiple home pages if you wish. Each home page that will open when starting Firefox is separated by the "|" character.
    See: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
    To have new tabs open a specific web site, add one of the following extensions:

  • When clicking "Save image as" how can I get Firefox to auto add a (1) (2) etc at the end of the filename if an image with the same filename already exists?

    How can I get Firefox to automatically rename images when clicking "Save image as" on the menu, when an image with the same file name already exists in the folder??

    Hello,
    That is not a feature that is supported natively within Firefox but there are various add-ons which I think will do the job you need.
    The one I have used is [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/web-slide-show/?src=search Web Slide Show]. This is primarily an add-on for viewing a slideshow of images when they are presented as thumbnails on a web page. However once you are in the slideshow there is a download button which will download all the images in the slideshow. It will automatically rename the images if an image with the same name already exists in the folder.
    If you don't like that add-on then here are some others that may do the same job:
    * [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/image-download-%E2%85%B1/?src=search Image Download II]
    * [https://addons.mozilla.org/En-us/firefox/addon/image-picker/ Image Picker]
    I hope that helps. Let me know if not.
    Also I notice that you are using Firefox v23. That is now an outdated version. To get the latest security updates I suggest updating to version 24. See the support article here: [[Update Firefox to the latest version]].

  • How can I get Firefox to search my computer for plugins that are already there?

    How can I get Firefox to search my computer for plugins that are already there?
    Adobe's Flash player is already on my computer from IE 8. How can I get Firefox to see that it is already on my PC and use it so I don't have to download it again and possibly create other problems. Also, in my efforts to download Flash, Firefox activated IE which made me concerned that proceeding WOULD cause problems our just leave me where I am now where IE can use Flask but Firefox cannot.

    Internet Explorer uses a ActiveX version of the Flash player plugin as it does not work with other browsers.
    Download the Plugin-based browsers version from https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html and make sure Firefox is closed when you install it.

  • In my received emails, how can I get Firefox to open URL links that begin with "click."?

    In my emails, how can I get Firefox to open links that begin with the word "click."? Instead of giving the me the message that says, for example, "Firefox can't find the server at click.americas.links.hp.com." This also happens when I try to open the links using Explorer.

    This link was not valid when I clicked it. Please contact the person sending these links they do not seem to work. The page takes me to a page that says it will load after 5 seconds, however there is not valid link.

  • Before, when I typed an http address in my hotmail account, it would be highlighted; since I got firefox, it is NOT highlighted. How can I get firefox to highlight an http address when I type it?

    The above say it all:
    Before, when I typed an http address in my hotmail account, it would be highlighted; since I got firefox, it is NOT highlighted. How can I get firefox to highlight an http address when I type it?

    Do you mean to create a clickable hyperlink while composing a new mail?
    Just above the textarea that you use to enter the message text there is usually a button bar with buttons to add text formatting like Bold and Italic.<br />
    That toolbar may also have a button to turn a text link into a clickable hyperlink (look for a chain like button).<br />
    You can select the text and click that button to turn the link into a clickable hyperlink.<br />
    If you can't find the button then hover them all to check the tooltip of each.
