Add downloads to most recent documents feature does not seem to work even though set to true?

Even with browser.download.manager.addToRecentDocs set to true, downloaded items (such as a PDF) are not added to the Windows "Recent Items" folder. I am running Windows 7, Firefox 16.
Thanks!

Please update to Firefox 20, then let us now if you still have problems [[Update Firefox to the latest version]]

    How do I insert a hyperlink in e-mail? Insert feature does no seem to work.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == the beginning

    The text editor is the text area that you use on the webmail (Yahoo, Hotmail) website to create a new mail.
    You can compare that with the ''Post new message'' text area that you use to create a new post on this forum.
    Just above the text area that you use to enter the message text there is usually a button bar with buttons that allows some text formatting like Bold and Italic and can also include a button to make a clickable hyperlink.
    Check the tooltip of each button by hovering with the mouse over each button.

  • The search feature in messages does not seem to work with pre IOS 7 messages

    After updating to IOS 7 the search feature in the Messages app does not seem to work with messages received prior to the update.  Texts received since the IOS 7 update search correctly.  Is this a bug or a feature of moving to iMessages rather than just receiving standard texts?

    Although not related to your question you have outdated ShockWave Flash Player go ahead and update your flash player by going to www.get.adobe.com/flashplayer
    As for your problem, One of your add-ons might be the culprit too. Try running Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] with all add-ons disabled. If that solves the problem, see [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and possibly [[Troubleshooting plugins]]

  • HT1338 My mac is becoming too slow. It takes long to open word documents, pdf files or excel documents or even safari. Can anybody suggest something? I have tried to reduce the number of open applications, but does not seem to work.

    Hi ...
    Checked to see how much free space there is on the startup disk lately?
    Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. Make sure there's a minimum of 15% free disk space.
    Freeing Up Hard Disk Space - Mac GuidesFreeing Up Hard Disk Space - Mac Guides
    If disk space is not the issue, booting in Safe Mode deletes system caches that may help.
    A Safe Mode boot takes longer then a normal boot so be patient.
    Once you see the Desktop, click the Apple menu icon top left corner of the screen.
    From the drop down menu click Restart.
    See if that makes a difference ...

  • In FF4 the opensearch detection does not seem to work. how can I add a search engine , that has an opensearch xml but no plugin?

    if you go to a webpage with an opensearch link tag like "<link rel="search" type="application/opensearchdescription+xml...." FF3.x highlighted the small arrow left of the search box and you could add the search engine. this does not seem to work in FF4.
    If a searchengine for example for the intranet, does not offer a plugin, just the opnesearch xml, how can one add it to the search engines in FF4?

    You do not get the blue glow on the search engine icon in Firefox 4, but you should still see the "Add ... site" entry in the menu if you click the search engines icon on the Navigation Toolbar.

  • Using the content aware move tool, I want to move an item from one image to another image but it does not seem to work. I think I need two layers on one document so how do I do this

    Using the content aware move tool, I want to move an item from one image to another image but it does not seem to work. I think I need two layers on one document so how do I do this

    Good day!
    A simple Paste does not work for you?
    It should place the clipboard content as a new Layer which you can then move around.
    If there is any chance that the elements need to be scaled, rotated etc. I would prefer to place them as Smart Objects (File > Place …) and do the masking that is specific to the images themselves in those.

    I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong during the uninstall/reinstall process. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
    In the Control Panel, Add/Remove programs, look for '''Mozilla Firefox'''. Make sure to save (do not delete) your personal settings when uninstalling.
    If it isn't there, just try installing 3.6.23, which is the latest in the 3.6 family. You can download 3.6.23 here: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all-older
    With respect to version 7.0.1, are you saying that the installation failed, or it seemed to work but it's nowhere to be found?

  • Encore CS5 - override does not seem to work

    I have been producing DVD's using Encore CS5 for some time now.  I usually create one single encoded file with many chapter points on it, using buttons on several menus for direction.  During the menu creation I select the relevent chapter point on the encoded file by using the button link facility in the properties menu and then set override back to the original selcted button on the menu using override  "link back to here".  The means that when the menu select button is pressed on the DVD player remote it returns to originally selected button in the menu screen.  I have just started creating blu-ray projects and have tried to do exactly this when creating a blu-ray menu but this does not seem to work.  What is annoying is that when you do a preview using the Encore preview player all looks good and the return seems to be successful.  It is only when you try to play the disc on a blu-ray player (and I have tried several different makes and all do the same) does the return to the originally selected button on the menu fail, returning to what seems to be any random menu button. I have seen what has already been posted in the Forum on this and tried several of the options there, although most seem to do things slightly differently than me, linking several files together and not using a single file.  All to no avail.  Anyone any ideas what I am doing wrong.  Roger

    Jeff
    Thanks again for your prompt response much appreciated and yes pressing the menu button on the blu-ray remote returns you back to menu 1 button 1 from both menus.
    Full project setup.
    There are two timelines "Start" and "Showtime"
    "Start" which is first play has 1 chapter point
    "Showtime" has 23 chapter points. These are split between the two menus.
    Main project properties:     First Play - Start Chapter 1, Override - not set, Title button - menu 1 button 1, this is possibly why the blu-ray menu selection on the remote returns here from both menus.  If I don't set this then the project errors with "Title remote not set".  I cannot set this to "Return to last menu".
    Start properties:         End action - menu 1 button 1, Override - not set,  Menu remote - return to last menu.
    Showtime properties:   End action - return to last menu, Override - not set, Menu Remote - Return to last menu.
    menu 1:  End action - menu 1 button 1, Override - not set.
    menu 2:  End action - menu 2 button 1. Override - not set
    I do have background music on each menu set up in "Motion".
    All buttons on both menus are set to the relevent chapter points on the "showtime" timeline with no override
    nothing else set.
    I hope this makes sense.

  • Select color does not seem to work in 2014.2on my mac. I don't understand what I am supposed to change in preferences

    I see there are references to select color not working on the mac. Mine does not seem to work but I think it did when I first downloaded. There is some discussion of changing preferences... In what way?

    Photoshop. 2014.2.2release.
    or 20141204 . r.310.x64
    MacBook Pro The ye dropper should be able to select a given color and find it throughout the image. And it should be adjustable to select colors that are related. I am only getting a "no pixels selected" error message. Even if there is one layer.

  • HT1923 I am using windows 7 and have upgraded itunes to 11. Now when I open my music library in itunes and click on a song it says "original file could not be found" Over 2000 songs come up this way and locate does not seem to work. Before the upgrade all

    With Windows 7 I upgraded itunes to 11. Now in my itunes library, when I click on a song "original file could not be found" comes up. This happens with over 2000 songs, but it seems to be ones I recorded from cd's. Locate does not seem to work. Has anyone else had this problem?

    Highlight a song that is supposedly missing, press CTRL+I to Get Info, say no when asked to locate the file, then look at the summary tab. Where does iTunes "think" the file should be? Where is it really? You may need to give a configuration file a minor tweak.
