Can all the options as history, bookmarks, tools etc made be password protected

my system is shared by many people so i want to make my whole Firefox options as history, bookmarks , tools etc. made password protected.
is this make possible?????????????

Best bet if the computer is shared, use the Guest account in Windows or give each person that uses the computer their own limited account. Putting a password on an application without putting a password on the Windows account that it's running under gives you no security whatsoever, because they can tamper with the system (installing a keylogger, etc) to get past any security an application can provide.
Antivirus and firewalls are unlikely help you against something that's deliberately installed - you need to limit access to windows itself if you want to be secure and private.

I recently lost the capability to "view" the "File, Edit, History bookmarks, tools & help" bar from the top of my screen, as well as the "Start" button on the bottom of the screen.

How do I get the "File, Edit, History, Bookmarks, Tools & Help Bar to appear on my browser. I also need my "Previous Page & Next Page" arrow... and my "Start" button to appear at the bottom of my screen. I can't navigate without these.

Be sure you are not in Full Screen Mode. The F11 key will toggle Full Screen Mode on or off. If you have no Firefox toolbars, tab bar, etc., you are probably in Full Screen Mode; your Windows Taskbar (with the "Start" button) will also not be visible.
*See --> http://kb.mozillazine.org/Netbooks#Full_screen
You can choose to use the Menu Bar (''File, Edit, History bookmarks, tools & help'') or the Firefox button menu in Firefox 4 and newer versions.
*See --> https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/common-questions-after-upgrading-firefox-36
The Back/Forward button (''Previous Page & Next Page" arrow'') are on the Navigation Toolbar; be sure the Navigation Toolbar is checked (to be displayed)
*See --> https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Back%20and%20forward%20or%20other%20toolbar%20items%20are%20missing
Windows Start button and Windows Taskbar:
*Be sure that "Auto-hide the taskbar" is '''''not checked''''' (if checked, moving the cursor pointer to the bottom of your monitor screen will cause it to slide up; it will disappear again when the cursor pointer is moved up from the bottom
*It is best to '''check''' "Keep the taskbar on top of other windows" so that application windows like Firefox cannot cover it.

How can i move the "File" "Edit" "History" "Bookmarks" "Tools" menus to the right side of the Firefox window instead of having them on the left side?

The Customize feature doesn't support this action.

You want to slide the contents of the menu bar all the way to the right?
You could do this with a style rule, either in a userChrome.css file or using the Stylish extension. Here's a sample rule:
@namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul);
#toolbar-menubar {
position:relative !important;
#menubar-items {
position:absolute !important; right:0; top:0;
''Edit: This messes up the Bookmarks menu. Don't use this method.''

The bar that says "File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, help" has disappeared and I would like it to appear all the time.

Near the top of the screen on the left side, the words "File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, help" does not appear consistently. Sometimes if I hit "alt" they will appear. I would like to keep those words to appear constantly. Let me know what I can do. Thanks

Why does the fire fox page change, sometimes it is just an orange fire fox button on the top left that opens a panel with all the things listed in it and then it sometimes has a bar across the top that says File, Edit, View, History, bookmarks, tools, Help? I barely get used to using one type of set up and then it changes to the other without me doing anything??

Iam not able to use all the options in my ichat and neither is my sister can anyone help us were both new to macbooks??

both me and my sister do not have all the options available to us on ichat and we both want to use the video chat help please were both new to the mac worlds. thanks!

Hi,
iChat 6 ?
I have seen one post that suggests the the Connection Doctor (VIdeo Menu) says in the capabilities tab that the AIR will not do Multiway Video or Audio chats.
I am not sure how true this is as iChat 4 and 5 can.
Much earlier Mac computers such as G4 signle Processors do have this issue. I would not have expected it with an Intel Processor.
File Transfers can be dependent on the Port used being open in your router (As can Video and Audio chats)
Screen Sharing requires that you use UPnP to open ports in the router (As well as turning it On in the vidoe Menu).
If you could be more precise I could match my answers to your questions.
It is late where I am and it will be about 20 hours before I read any reply.

How can I get back all the favicons in my bookmarks?

I reset Safari because it was running slow, and I just noticed that I lost all the favicons for the websites that I bookmarked and stored. When I click on the website, that individual favicon comes back and stays next to the web address in my bookmarks...
But I was wondering is there something that I can do to bring back all the favicons of my bookmarked sites in one step?
Thanks,
Mylesaway

HI,
But I was wondering is there something that I can do to bring back all the favicons of my bookmarked sites in one step?
Sorry no. Next time you reset Safari, make sure "remove all website icons" isn't ticked.
Keep in mind, webpage icons can take up hard drive space and slow Safari down.
Tip... to make sure you have a backup, from the Safari Menu Bar click File/Export Bookmarks. Save them to an external source so that if you have problems with your Mac, you can Import back them in at a later time.

Hi ewhuntley,
It sounds like you may be running Acrobat 11.0.07, is that correct? If so, please choose Edit > Preferences > General. In the entry Scale for Screen Resolution, choose 100%. Save your changes, and restart Acrobat. Did that do the trick?
Best,
