After i download web page, the downloads window in firefox 3.6.9 is blank

why is the downloads window in firefox 3.6.9 blank after i download a file or web page? all of my downloads are directed to the "downloads" folder on my desktop [which i selected from ere i placed it]. i've tried many suggestions from contributors, mozilla magazine; and google suggestions.
i selected in "tools, options" to "show" the downloads window when downloading," and elected NOT to close the window when downloads are finished. i cannot find an option to retain downloads in the download window.
i also tried a dozen or more suggestions from mozilla's help page and from forum contributors.
perhaps i'm incapable of accomplishing something that is beyond me.
i do appreciated your advice.

thanks, cor-el.
yes, i checked the setting, and it is set exactly how you suggest.
i remember that, in earlier versions of firefox 3x, the download window always remained open after a download was completed.
in tools/options/general, the setting, "show the dowloads window when downloading a file" is checked. i unchecked the option to close the download window when all downloads are finished.
now, what do i do about the "save files to" window and the "ask me where to save files" options. right now, the "save files to" is set to downloads folder. should i change this setting to "ask me"? or, what?

When I print out Yahoo! Finance web page, the interactive chart (Flash Player 10) part is printed blank. Internet Explorer can print the same page, no problem. How can I print it correctly?

My boss told me that he doesn't like Microsoft, so I must find a solution.

I did not have the HP printer software for Mac OSX installed properly. Once installed the problem went away.

I downloaded the latest Adobe Reader when prompted. Since then I cannot use Safari File Print to print web pages - the printer dialogue window opens but the page is blank. Also, when I try to use the safari Help button,the dialogue box is blank.

I downloaded the latest Adobe Reader update when prompted. Since then I cannot use Safari>File>Print to print web pages - the printer dialogue window opens, but the page remains blank.

Back up all data.
Quit Safari. In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then launch Safari and test.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

My school has a website. The professor uploads files in Word. When I click on the link at home using Pages, the download window opens with nothing in it and Safari opens with a blank in the address book. What Could be wrong? Wrong set up?

Hi Jo,
If I'm interpreting this correctly, the Word file downloads correctly, but when you open it in Pages, the link(s) which your instructor has embedded in the Word file are not correctly translated into Pages.
If the link shows the actual address, you should be able to copy that and paste it into the location bar in Safari, press return, and get to the website that way.
An alternate route might be to download one of the open source Office applications, OpenOffice.org, LibreOffice, or NeoOffice. These are written to more closely emulate the behaviours of MS Word than Pages, and may provide better support for links embedded in Word files.

Barry

Firstly, thanks you about your response!!
Secondly, I didn't mean to iPad apps but to iPod touch apps, so if you know about a cool app who allow to save web pages for watching them later at offline mode, please update me!!
Sorry, I should have typed iPod rather than iPad.
Both of the products I mentioned are available for the iPod Touch & iPhone. Check out the App store.

Hi,
Install the v10.6.6 combo update available here. It's ok to do this even though you are already running v10.6.6. The combo includes fixes that were not included in the original update.

Restart your Mac and try the MAS again.
You can download apps directly from the MAS once you have it running.
Considering the TM backup took so long, make sure there's enough space on your Mac startup disk.
Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. *Make sure you always have a minimum of 15% free disk space.*

HT4922 Downloaded 5.1.1. to my iphone. Now, Safari will not connect to my server. Can not download web pages and many of my apps. Running very slow sluggish! Is there a fix? Sound like other users are experiencing same problems. Anyone have a solution?

Downloaded 5.1.1 to my iphone. Now, Safari will not connect to my server. Can not download web pages and many of my apps. Email seems to be ok. iphone running slow and sluggish. I have read several other users have experienced the same problem. Any solutions?

Basic troubleshooting steps oultlined in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new device.
You need to go through all steps in succession until your problem is solved. If going through ALL these steps fails to resolve your issue, then you'll need to bring your phone into Apple for evaluation and possible replacement.

What happen to itunes download button on the download page? I can't download itunes by clicking the button. It seems not clickable

I tried to download itunes to my new laptop that run on Windows 8 64-bit but seems like the download button on the download page is just an image which is not clickable. I tried on my old laptop that run on Windows 7 Home Premium, the button still as an image which is not clickable. Anybody face the same issue? How you solve it?

When I have more than one tab open, if I click on a picture to view, when the window opens to view the photo, firefox crashes. I also notice while looking at a web page, the pinned tabs to the left of the bar are constantly reloading for some reason.

When I have more than one tab open, if I click on a picture to view/enlarge, say eBay, and I click on the items photo to enlarge it, when the window opens to view the photo, Firefox crashes. I also notice while looking at a web page, the pinned tabs to the left of the bar are constantly reloading for some reason, The green circle starts going round and round for no reason even though the tab is not being viewed. Both problems seem to have started after the last software update.

Dear All,
I am frequently getting following error message on aspx pages on my SharePoint 2007 environment
Unable to display this Web Part. To troubleshoot the problem, open this Web page in a Windows SharePoint Services-compatible HTML editor such as Microsoft Office SharePoint Designer.
If the problem persists, contact your Web server administrator.

while working with SharePoint Designer 2007.Any clues how to resolve this issue ?
Any help in this regard will be greatly appreciated.

Slow to download web pages

For the past week or so my iBook G4, OS X 10.5.2 has not been downloading web pages properly. Usually very slow and halting. Occasionally one will come up normally and occasionally it won't come up at all and I get a "cannot find the server" message. Occurs with both Safari and Firefox, both wireless and Ethernet. I seem to have a good signal. My wife's PC is working fine on the same cable modem/router. I've done the disc utility, virus scan, restart. What next?

Is there anything else that might have changed in the last week? How long has Leopard been installed? When was the last software upgrade?

Could some one give help and let me know where I can probably find the settings option that allows me to change and switch to previous situation where it was possible to decide time to time how to proceed either opening the file or saving it ??
Thanks in advance

What is your operating system?
Open a PDF from where? If online, in what browser?
