After the last Firefox update, the forward or back multiple pages feature disappeared. Why?

The back or forward multiple pages feature of the browser is gone since the last update. How can I get it back?

The drop-down arrow was removed, use right-click to bring up the context menu as always. Older items are on the bottom. See item #5 in the following ..

After the last Firefox update, the icons for my bookmarks disappeared. I have a long list of bookmarks and found the identifying icons very useful. Where'd they go and how do I get them back??

I don't know how I could make this any more clear.... Where the icons used to be, there is now either nothing at all or a square shaped by dotted lines.

Hi lskinner,
You should take a look at [https://support.mozilla.org/kb/latest-firefox-issues#os=mac&browser=fx9 this article] that discusses some of the issues with the latest build of Firefox.
There is some information in there that should help you to resolve your issue. Luckily, it is a very easy fix.
Hopefully this helps!

After the last firefox update 7.0.1, my web pages look incomplete, sometimes no buttons, arrows or other background images. all I get basically is text. can you help?

I checked out microsoft windows, and graphics are all there, but I like firefox, or at least use to. I've checked yourFAQ section but can't find any help there.

Make sure that you allow pages to choose their colors and that you haven't enabled High Contrast in the Accessibility settings.

A site that I use regularly has buttons that I can use to navigate - but 1 has disappeared since the last FireFox update - and I can't use it anymore.

For 2 years I've been using a website that I order my products through. One of the buttons is my '''account''', the other is the '''catalogue '''(many others besides those - but those are the ones I use frequently).
After the last FireFox update (3.6.15) - suddenly the "'''catalogue'''" button disappeared. I thought it was a problem with the company site, but when they accessed my account (using an older version of FireFox) - the catalogue button showed up.
I've tried clearing my cache and restarting firefox - multiple times. No dice. Can't get it to come back.
I have screenshots to show the problem - with my computer and with my suppliers computer.

Websites that require entering a security verification code to prevent scamming do not recognize the characters I enter since the last FireFox update.

When a website requires entry of a security code displayed for verification of human use, the characters I enter are not recognized since the last Firefox update.
== This happened ==
A few times a week
== The last update for Firefox.

I use this feature ( "tell sites...tracked" case ticked ), and I never met your problem. So this is not the where your trouble comes from.
Ok, first of all, the security of your computer.
You NEED a firewall, it is more important that an antivirus.
Avast seems ok, but SpybotSD ? Is it still working, not out-of-date ? Try Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, it is working like SpybotSD : free for checking your computer once by once, but paying if you want your computer always under his protection.
And then, perform a check-up of your computer, to detect any malware.
Second, after cleaning your computer, come back here and tell if you still have your problem. I believe that the cleaning will solve the problem, but maybe I'm wrong. I'll check every day this topic.

Since the last firefox update I cannot use Adobe pdf doc viewer nor can I copy and paste in my browser. I am not happy about this

Since the last firefox upgrade my copy/paste and adobe doc viewer functionality is gone.

That is a bug in Firefox.

Is the new Firefox update the cause for my iBook freezing up?

I have an iBook (the last model before they were discontinued) running OSX 10.4 and have noticed that it has been freezing up, forcing me to do a hard reset, ever since I downloaded the latest Firefox update.
Sometimes it seems like the screen will go to sleep and won't wake up, also forcing a hard reset.
I have done some preliminary googling but I don't think I am using the right terms to get meaningful answers.
Is this a known issue? If so, can I uninstall the update? Or is it something else that I can fix? I have Applecare, but it might have expired by now.
Haven't noticed the problem in Safari, although it's only been since last night that I switched browsers and I may just not have used it long enough for the issues to surface.

Hi Liz!
The Firefox update, and your issue, coming about in close proximity, may just be a coincidence.
Exactly which model iBook G4 is it?
What is the Processor speed?
What size is the Hard Drive, and how much space is available?
How much RAM is installed, and is it original or added?
What peripherals do you have connected? A keyboard, mouse, printer, external drive or modem, router, etc?
Have you made any additional changes, like upgrading the system, updated or installed any other applications or programs, etc?
Have there been any unusual occurences, like freezes, crashes, power outages, etc?
Insufficient available space, can cause performance issues, system corruption, and possible loss of data.
Depending on Mac system usage habits, it is a general recommendation, to keep 10% to as much as 20%, of the Total capacity, available at all times.
Review the suggestions, in the documents that I have linked to below.
Authored by Dr Smoke:
Problems From Insufficient RAM And Free Hard Disk Space
Freeing Space On Your Mac OS X Startup Disk
Have you ever run any routine Maintenance procedures, as suggested in the articles linked to below?
Mac OS X 10.3/10.4: System Maintenance, authored by Gulliver
Maintaining Mac OS X, authored by Dr Smoke
Is the iBook shutdown overnight, or does it run 24/7?
If you turn the Mac off nightly, the Background Maintenance Tasks, may not run on a timely basis.
These can also be run, using a Third-Party utility, or manually using Terminal, to run the CRON Commands.
I use MacJanitor, when necessary.
INSTRUCTIONS TO RUN CRON MANUAL COMMANDS
Quit all applications/programs.
Navigate to HD > Applications > Utilities.
Double click on Terminal, to open.
At the prompt, type:
sudo periodic daily
Press Return.
Enter your Admin password when prompted, then press Return.
This will execute the daily script that is sheduled to run every night.
When completed, repeat this procedure, but change the command to:
sudo periodic weekly
This one rebuilds a database or two, and usually takes somewhat longer to complete. It is scheduled to run once a week.
Repeat again, with command:
sudo periodic monthly
Or they can all be run in one pass, which is preferable, with this command:
sudo periodic daily weekly monthly
When the tasks complete, and return to the prompt, you may quit Terminal.
Restart the Mac, and run Repair Permissions.
TO REPAIR PERMISSIONS ON THE STARTUP DISK
1.Open Disk Utility, located in Applications/Utilities, and select the startup disk in the left column.
2.Click First Aid.
3.Click Verify Disk Permissions to test permissions or Repair Disk Permissions to test and repair permissions. (I never "Verify". Just run "Repair".)

My font totally changed after the last Firefox update. It is a little smaller, less bold and very much less clear. Please tell me how to fix this.

The default font used on websites like Facebook, Craigslist, Google etc. has now become much worse since the last update. It is much less clear, it almost looks choppy and transparent. As if part of the letters are missing. Less bold and just a tad smaller as well. I would like to go back to the way the font used to look like, the way it does in Internet Explorer and Chrome.

hi miked91, this is probably caused by microsoft update kb3013455 which can cause font rendering issues on vista:
<blockquote>After you install security update 3013455, you may notice some text quality degradation in certain scenarios. The problem only occurs on systems that are running Windows Vista SP2 or Windows Server 2003 SP2. Microsoft is researching this problem and will post more information in this article when the information becomes available. </blockquote>
reference: https://support.microsoft.com/kb/3013455
one option may be to [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/remove-update#1TC=windows-vista roll-back this particular update] for now until there is a fix by microsoft or you could also look if there is a [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL|graphics driver update]] available on the website of the vendor (intel/amd/nvidia) which might also resolve this problem in some cases.

Why do my thumbnails not all load on a page like they used to before the last Firefox update?

I used to love firefox and used it exclusively as my web browser. But ever since the last update to version 3.6.15 the thumbnails on the websites I ALWAYS visit no longer all load!
Some of the thumbnails load and some don't. If I close firefox and go back to the same page I may get some of the thumbnails to load that didn't before but others that DID load before don't this time.
This same problem happens at other sites as well.
So, I gave up using firefox and switched back to IE because it works properly at least though I don't like it as much as firefox.
I wish they hadn't tried to fix something that wasn't broken because now it is broken!

Did you check your security software (firewall)?
A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.

Why can I no longer use "favorites" since the last Firefox update????

I imported all my Favorites from Internet explorer when I first began using Firefox. I click on "favorites" and I get a complete list of all the URLs I use a lot. After the last update, the list no longer appears. I've reloaded the app and no joy. It still works if I quit firefox and use IE.

Alternately, you can import your IE Favorites into Firefox's Bookmarks system. However, if you plan to add new Favorites in IE, then they would not be the same between browsers, so perhaps that isn't the right approach for you.

I have a Mac OS 10.9.4. After the last OS update on 11.July.2014 Flash stopped working. Why and how can I fix it?

All of a sudden my computer stopped allowing me to watch Youtube videos or anything involving Adobe Flash software. I tried uninstalling Flash and reinstalling it, I've tried changing my cookies... everything that I find on different forums and I still can't get videos to play. On the Flash website it says that the latest flash model, version 14.0.0.145, works with Macs OS 10.6-10.9. Does that mean that flash is incapable of working with a Mac 10.9.4? I can't believe that the mac community stopped watching Youtube after the last update and nothing's been done. Has anyone else experienced this problem and more importantly found a way to fix it?

If you can't install or update Flash, follow these instructions.
If you have installed the latest version of Flash, please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test. For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 8. Back up all data before making any changes.
Step 1
You might have to log out or restart the computer before a Flash update takes effect.
Step 2
From the Safari menu bar, select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data...
and confirm. Close the window. Then select
           ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.
Step 3
If you're only having trouble with YouTube videos, log in to YouTube and load this page. You may see a link with the text "Leave the HTML5 Trial." If so, click that link.
Step 4
a. If you get a warning of a "blocked" or "outdated" plug-in, then select the Security tab in the Safari preferences window. In the list of plugins on the left, there should be one—and only one—entry for "Adobe Flash Player," showing the same version number that you installed. Select that entry. On the right there will be a list of websites for which you have specifically allowed Flash, if any. It's normal for the list to be empty. Below that is a menu labeled
          When visiting other websites
From that menu, select either Allow or Ask.
b. If you still get the alerts, then go back to the Flash Player preference pane and select the Advanced tab. Click Check Now. Quit and relaunch the browser.
c. If the alerts still persist, triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Resources
Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
          Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open. Inside it, there should be a file named "XProtect.meta.plist". If that file is missing and you know why it's missing, restore it from a backup or copy it from another Mac running the same version of OS X. Otherwise, reinstall OS X.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
Step 5
In the Safari preferences window, select the Advanced tab and uncheck the box marked
          Stop plug-ins to save power
Step 6
Open this folder as in Step 4:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
          Flash Player (failing).plugin
You may be prompted for your login password.
Step 7
Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from the domain "get.adobe.com". Don't click a link from any other website, including this one, because you can't trust links. They may be an attempt to trick you into installing malware masquerading as Flash. Type the address into the browser window. Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
Step 8
If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked
          Allow (or Enable) plug-ins
Then click the button marked
          Manage Website Settings...
if present and make sure that the website is not blocked for Flash.
Step 9
Select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.

The Downloads window doesn't display information since the last Firefox update

I had to register a new help account just to get here.
Your broser has been fucking up like crazy since the last update. I have been having nothing but problems logging into multiple sites. Sites would log me out randomly, then I wouldn';t be able to log back in. I tried to make an account on a new site and had to try 11 damn times before it went through. and just now, when I tried to ask a troubleshooting question, my username and password wouldn't work. So I sent a password reset request. Nothing happened. I sent at least FIVE password reset requests. None of them has gone through. When I tried to enter a different username, thinking maybe that was the problem, as soon as I re-typed it and clicked anywhere outside the name space, it'd revert to the name that was previously there. What the hell!?
I haven't even gotten to the problem I originally wanted to contact you about!
The downloads window no longer works. I download a file, I click on 'Downloads' to see how long it'll be, I see nothing. Plain, blank white. And yes, I know some files download so quickly they're gone before I can open the window. I'm talking about large several-megabyte videos and disk images. No indication that they're downloading at all.
All this has happened since 19.0 installed. Do I have to disable updates from now on to keep the browser working properly!?

Alco, that was ''sort of'' helpful.
I changed the default value to 2, and that at least made a download appear in the download window. However, if I close the window and reopen it, it's blank again. And it won't show more than one download going at once. AND I can't pause or cancel downloads.
I really don't want to reset Firefox, but I suppose I will if I have to.

How can I turn off the the big orange window that keeps opening on top of Google since the last firefox update installed.

Since the last mozilla/firefox update whenever I go online, google and mozilla/firefox open at the same time and I can not see google since mozille/firefox (a big orange window) opens on top of google. I read everything in the window but there doesn't seem to be an "off" button for this big orange window.

Hi pamerritt,
Are you saying you always see the "Welcome to Firefox" message? If so, you should look at [https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Firefox+has+just+updated+tab+shows+each+time+you+start+Firefox this article about that specific issue] and the article [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved Preferences not saved]. These should give you all the information you need!
If that doesn't work:
# Type about:config in the address bar
# Click ''I'll be careful, I promise'' if prompted
# In the Filter input field type ''startup''
# Double click on startup.homepage_override_url
# Delete the text string and click ''OK''
# Close Firefox and reopen the window to verify that it has worked.
Hopefully this helps!

Since the last Firefox update my computer automatically goes online at start up and I do NOT want to do this, so how can I discontinue?

I've searched through my system preferences and Firefox preferences and both helps and cannot figure out how to prevent the computer from automatically going online (using Firefox) when I start it up. I do not want this to happen because the computer will be online when I am not using it; this poses security problems. In addition, this happened after the latest automatic update of Firefox and makes me wonder if someone is invading my privacy. I only want to go online when I open Firefox.

Uncheck Edit > Preferences > Store > Show iTunes in the cloud purchases
The correct way to move iTunes from one computer to another is to copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old computer (or backup of the old computer) to the new computer. This will make everything in iTunes on the new computer exactly as it was on the old computer.

After the last Firefox update, the forward or back multiple pages feature disappeared. Why?
