Apps in Firefox Mobile?

so I just downloaded and installed from Firefox marketplace a music app called earbits and all it does when I clicked the launch button from within Firefox Mobile is showing me its Google Play page with a modified browser ui..... is this normal or a bug? Or is it even legit? Anyway, how do I uninstall it? It also creates an icon in my home page but not in my list of Android apps

In the apps screen you can long press on installed apps to uninstall them.
or
if you have no problem you can also uninstall firefox and reinstall it.

Hello how can I use android app in my hp 15 touchsmart notebook pc???
Hi,
You can't, they use two DIFFERENT Operating Systems. You may be able to get SIMILAR apps (same functions, same names) but you can't move apps from Android to Windows. My suggestion: On your HP 15 machine, use Windows Store and search for app or apps you like and then install on it.
Regards.

I installed Firefox sync and then used iphone app called FireFox Home and I can syncronize history, tabs and bookmarks. But I am NOT able to syncronize passwords from Firefox in my Macbook to FireFox Home on iPhone !

I installed Firefox sync and then used iphone app called FireFox Home and I can syncronize history, tabs and bookmarks. But I am NOT able to syncronize passwords from Firefox in my Macbook to FireFox Home on iPhone so I am very terrible to input my IDs and Passwords with my hands on FireFox Home when I log into Facebook, Twitter etc... Is it issue or something like that? If you have some solutions to make it clear, can you tell me how to syncronize memorized IDs and Passwords for the webs. Thank you.

You can look in Tools > Options > Sync

How do I watch .mp4 on firefox mobile?

I tried to open a site with an .mp4 video imbedded. The firefox browser told me that i needed a new version of flash player. So i clicked on the link and it told me that I can't download flash onto apple devices. I have an android phone. How do I watch .mp4 on firefox mobile?

But the native web browser allows me to open an MP4 file directly in the Video app, where it is played directly. Firefox 4 Mobile first downloads the whole file, before I can play the file in the Video app. This takes too long and it is to tedious since I have to manually remove the downloaded file later. Is it possible to configure FF4M so it would do the same as the native browser?

Why does Firefox Mobile stop loading when using VPN?

When I'm connected to Private Internet Access VPN on my phone (using their app in the play store) occasionally Firefox gets into a state in which no webpages can be loaded. I can fix the problem in one of two ways: (1) use Google Chrome for Android or any other app that uses the internet or (2) disconnect from VPN and use Firefox without that protection. Sometimes when I reconnect to VPN, Firefox pages will load again but sometimes not.
The loading bar in Firefox Mobile always gets stuck in the same spot, which I am thinking could be diagnosed to determine which part of the http protocol it might be stuck at. I am hoping I can attach a screenshot.
I really believe in what you guys are doing. Keep fighting the good fight.

It could possibly be that the dns is failing, but to be sure there would need to be a log and need to be tested on lte and wireless to see if its consistent.

I have a Driod Eris with 2.1 software, Why won't Firefox mobile install?

The app store online has the app but will not install, and the same site from my device can't find it

Unfortunately I can see from the specifications that it has armv6 which is an architecture that is not supported by Firefox. Only android devices with armv 7 and greater can install Firefox Mobile.
Also it is mentioned here : https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android so follow the bug entered to see when build will be available.

Firefox mobile crashes on bookmark import

I'm just trying to import my bookmarks from the stock browser via the Firefox mobile app .I've cleared out Data, I tried reinstalling and tried using the beta version.
Any solutions or alternative ways to do this manually? Verizon Galaxy Note 2 on 4.1 .2. Thanks

There must be some set of characters that Firefox is having trouble importing from. The only work around I can thing of for this would be to sync the Galaxy Note browser data to Chrome desktop (if possible). Then import into Firefox desktop that data. Finally use Firefox sync to get the data over.
Do you have any bookmarks that have non-latin characters?

Issues with Beta Tester Tools on Firefox mobile

I just downloaded Firefox Mobile Beta 1 on my Droid 2. I remember seeing the "Beta Tester Tools" in an earlier build of fennec so, I tried to install it and I'm running into some issues.
I first downloaded "fennec-4.0b1.source.tar.bz2" from http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/releases/latest-beta/source/. I then located "[email protected]" in "mozilla-central/mobile/app/profile/extensions/".
I compiled the extension like I had for some of the one that I've worked on. I created a site using the guide https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Installing_Extensions_and_Themes_From_Web_Pages
and uploaded the files to my MobileMe iDisk. Everything showed up perfectly (don't mind the 2nd link, I was trying to install the Firebug beta as well).
http://web.me.com/celebi23/extensions/index.html
It installed & is showing up in my Add-ons menu. The Beta icon, however, is not showing up in the Toolbar. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

mbrubeck, thank you. I was just trying to figure out if Beta Tester Tools could be installed in Firefox 4 Beta 1. I guess the Beta Tester Tools were disabled in Beta 1. Thanks for the response though.

How do I stop Firefox mobile from making it's own connections to Google, AmazonAWS and netDNA despite choosing every available opt-out?

If I visit a simple web page which doesn't contain any 3rd party content I can still see Firefox Mobile making secure connections to:
108.161.188.224 - Registered to netDNA in the US
74.125.230.* - Various Google servers
23.21.86.68 23.23.293.51 and many more - Amazon AWS servers
These always follow any page load, browsing from a desktop system makes no such connections and are established on a website such as lwn.net which have no 3rd party content on their pages.
I have unticked all options in telemetry and have no sync set up, I even tried disabling things like Safebrowing and add-on update checks in about:config but the very concerning connections remain.
Please help me find the option to make this stop. As the communications are secure I can't look at what they might contain and it baffles me as to what purpose they serve but question one is how on earth do I disable the worrying connections to companies I choose to avoid.

Hi tryingtoescape,
On Firefox for Android there is a new experimental about page that tells you all of the network connections being made in Firefox.
Try it, go to [about:networking]
To disconnect, go to Settings > Privacy > Clear Private Data then restart Firefox on the Android device. This will minimize the active sockets.
However even in private guest session there is safebrowsing.google.com, the default search engine and attached accounts. But you have already found a way to disconnect thest.
Does clearing the Private Data make an improvement?
For specific connections mentioned:
108.161.188.224 - Registered to netDNA in the US 74.125.230.* - Various Google servers 23.21.86.68 23.23.293.51 and many more - Amazon AWS servers
You may be able to try an add on, one found was: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/android/addon/silentblock/?src=search]

I can't see the body of emails in hotmail when using firefox 37.0.1 I can see them in IE and firefox mobile. Help please

I resend some emails regularly with only slight changes to the email so I usually do a "reply all" or "forward" . Recently I cannot see the text in the body of the emails using FireFox, however I can see the complete email when using FireFox mobile or Internet Explorer.

I am using Windows 7 SP1 Home Premium and FireFox 37.0.1
Any help would be appreciated.

How do I 'Open all in tabs' from a bookmark folder, in Firefox mobile? I am using an android tablet.

One of the best things about firefox on my desktop is the way I could group bookmarks into folders per subject or task,then open them all in tabs. On my Asus tablet I can see my desktop bookmark folders, but I don't see how to open them all in tabs. Also, is there a way to put a bookmark button somewhere, instead of going through the homepage?

It is not a default feature of Firefox mobile. Sounds possible via an extension. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/mobile/ Though anything more than 3-5 would cause some performance problems while the pages are downloaded. If a large number were selected there is a good chance that all the memory on the tablet would be exhausted and Firefox would be killed by Android.
