Can't get the Firefox homepage toolbar on my Samsung Galaxy S4

Firefox mobile downloads to my smartphone but the window that comes up has 6 open panes. At the top of the screen there are 4 panel options: History, Top Sites, Bookmarks and Reading List. If possible, I would like the same home page with toolbar & icons that I get on my desktop computer. I have installed and uninstalled Firefox Android many times and get the same results every time. I have gone thru all the online help options without success. Any help to solve this issue will be greatly appreciated. Thank You!!!

Hi loonyone,
Thank you for your question, currently this is the default homepage of Firefox. In order to change the homepage you can tap on the setting menu > Customize and then click on the Panels that you want to show up and not to show up. Top sites is the panel also used on desktop.
If you have any other questions please post back.

I can't get the Firefox icon onto my icon page, how do I do this ?

I tried to unistall the Firefox program, but could not do it. I did delete the firefox icon. Now the
program is still on my Windows PC, but I can't get the icon back. HELP

Take a look in C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\
There should be firefox icon.
1. right click on it
2. click "Send to" > Desktop (create shortcut).
And then you should see firefox icon on your desktop.
If you want to remove firefox you can try, restart PC first ..
then open Control Panel > All Control Panel Items > Programs and Features. You should see Mozilla FIrefox on list, just right click on it and click uninstall. Job done :D

I can't get the Firefox tab in order to access all the choices there. Where is it?

In the Mozilla support, it keeps telling me to click on the orange Firefox tab at the top of my screen. I don't have one and can't find how to make it appear. Any advice?

For new installs, Firefox on Vista and higher will show an orange Firefox button. For users who upgraded from Firefox 3.6, I think you kept the classic menu bar.
If you want to switch: [[Display the Firefox button menu instead of the menu toolbar]]
If you want to find the Options dialog on the menu bar: it's on the Tools menu

Just updated to 7.0.1 for Mac Snow Leopard, but the icon in my dock isn't the firefox symbol, it's a "document" icon. How can I get the firefox icon in my dock again?

I was given an auto-update message from Firefox, which asked me to restart the program to initiate the update. As soon as Firefox restarted, I got a weird document icon in my dock - in the place where the Firefox icon was moments before. The new update of Firefox seems to be working just fine, but I would like the Firefox icon in my dock and not this unrelated icon. Can you help, please?

I had this problem. Re-instal Firefox. After you drag the Firefox icon in to the Applications icon it is going to ask you if you're sure that you want to replace the version that's there - say yes. Then go down to your dock and remove the Firefox icon - drag it off the dock so it "poof!s" away. You can now put the icon on your dock again from your newly updated version. If that doesn't fix it drag it off the dock again, probably no need to re-update for the third time. Fixed it for me anyway. GL!

When and where can I get the firefox 31 ESR beta?

The current beta download on http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/channel/#beta is v30.0b9, is that it? (if so, why not v31.09b?) (Also, my platform is Linux)

The current Firefox ESR version is still a Firefox 24 version (24.6.0).
It usually takes about a week for the next beta to appear, so this might be the case for the Firefox 31 ESR version.
You can keep an eye on this folder list to see if anything about esr31 will appear:

How can I get the Firefox browser to work with my high speed internet?

After switching from dial-up to high speed internet, I can no longer open the Firefox browser (which I was using) even after downloading the latest version. It is set for my default, but I can only use IE to browse. What else do I need to do to make it work?

You didn't tell me it was a user name password issue.
Open Keychain Access. (Applications/Utilities)
Select Passwords on the left.
Delete the Delta keychain.
Now from your Safari menu bar click Safari / Preferences then select the Autofill tab. Make sure: User names and passwords is selected.
Navigate to the Delta site. Login with your user name and password. You should be prompted to save that info to a new keychain.

I can't get the Firefox icon to remain in my tray on a MAC OS X 10.5.8

That's the story: I download, but when I close firefox, the icon disappears from the tray at the bottom of the screen.

You mean the dock. You can put the Firefox icon in the dock by dragging the icon from where Firefox is installed and dropping it on the dock.

How can I get the firefox icon from the bottom of my desktop moved up onto the scree?

I want to move the firefox icon up onto the desktop so it will show up when I have the battery save function on... How?

Hi LDHill,
Have you tried right clicking on the Firefox and icon and going to ''Send to > Desktop''? That will create a shortcut for Firefox on your desktop.
Hopefully this helps!

I'm living in Japan and can't get the firefox to set to English. I don't speak Japanese. How do I fix this?

I am attempting to install the Firefox program on my computer. However, since I live in Japan, somehow all the writing on the Google portion comes up in Japanese. How do I change the language to English?

Looks like you are using the en-US version of Firefox however it is probably going by your IP location.

If you'd rather use a different Google site, like Google.com, no matter where you are, try one of the following tips:
Click the Google.com link on any other domain.
Choose a Google domain manually by visiting the [http://www.google.com/language_tools Language Tools] page (the section with the flags).
Bookmark http://www.google.com/ncr. This is an alternative web address for Google.com that always takes you to Google.com without redirecting you.

I changed my screen to full page view when in Hotmail and now I can't get the Firefox Menu (including my bookmarks) back-how do I change back to my prevoius view?

While using my Hotmail, I changed the view to 'full screen', which meant I lost the Firefox Menu Bar at the top, including my Bookmarks which I use quite regularly. I don't know how to go back to my regular screen the Firefox Menu Bar, including my Bookmarks. Any advice would be much appreciated.

Some choices:
# F11 toggle Full Screen
# Move mouse up through the top of the screen to menu bars, if you show them
# "Alt+V" -- to bring up the View Menu

Can't get rid of weird Japanese ads on Samsung Galaxy Tab 4

I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 4, and one of the first weeks I started using it, this Japanese Assistive Touch type thing appeared, but wasn’t connected with an app I could uninstall to get rid of it. But after a couple weeks, it disappeared without my noticing (or doing anything to cause it to go away). But now (from about several weeks ago) I have started getting these popup ads. However, they are all in Japanese, which leads me to think the Assistive Touch and these ads are connected somehow. When I have accidentally clicked on the ads they try to get me to download their apps (which all have very suspicious permissions). But now I can’t figure out how to make them go away. I have run scans through TrustGo AntiVirus, AVG AntiVirus, Clean Master Antivirus, TrustGo Ad Detector, and Lookout Ad Detector multiple times, and all of them after an initial scan and clear (which only gave basic things and didn’t solve the problem anyway) have told me my system is clean, even though I am still getting the ads. I have run Clean Master’s Junk Files scan, and in the results under the “Obsolete apks” heading, were three apps with Japanese titles, and the words Not Installed underneath them. I told Clean Master to “clean junk”, and the apps disappeared from the list, but the ads were still appearing. Next, I tried running my device in Safe Mode to see if I could pinpoint the problem to a third party app (even though Clean Master had classified them as Not Installed). When I ran it in Safe Mode, I clicked through all the apps available, and no ads appeared. But when I restarted it in Normal Mode, I clicked through all the same apps from Safe Mode, and still no ads appeared. It was only when I went to a third party app that the ads appeared. I went to several third party apps, and ads popped up on almost all of them. However, I’m not sure what to do to now to try to get the ads off. Any suggestions? I would like to avoid doing a factory reset if at all possible.

Not technically, no, but around the beginning of when I got my tablet in
July, an Assistive Touch type thing appeared, but I didn't download it.
That was also in Japanese, but I couldn't figure out a way to delete it.
However, it somehow disappeared without my noticing or doing anything about
it. I feel like they're connected. So the issue's been going on for longer
than from the last app I downloaded. I haven't removed any apps yet to test
it though.

I can't get the reset homepage procedure to work on Firefox 26; Help!

I followed directions EXACTLY on how to set a new homepage... hasn't worked and I've checked and rechecked that I'm doing it right. I type in the url for the page I want and when it loads, I click on the icon at the immediate LEFT of the nav bar and drag it all the way to the right and drop it on the homepage icon, but nothing happens. So what am I doing wrong? This is a desktop pc with Intel CPU and Windows XP with all 3 service packs. I hope all this works because I'm about ready to ditch FF26 and go back to IE8!

Make sure that the Yahoo toolbar isn't causing this issue.
If you do not keep changes after a restart or otherwise have problems with preferences, see:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

Note that you have the GreatArcadeHits Add-on 1.0.0 extension, considered as malware, installed.

I can't get the Firefox Disk Image to go away. I delete it after install, but everytime I open the program the program asks to be installed again. Help?

I downloaded the update .DMG for 4.0.1 and installed the program to my applications folder like instructed. Then deleted the .dmg and "application disk image" (the icon looks like an external device on the desktop). But now every time I open Firefox, the program prompts me to install it to the applications folder again. Am I missing something?

Thanx. I suspected it might have something to do with FF 4.0 still being in Beta. Guess I'm heading back to the old version until such time as the changes are made.
Again, many thanx. Pete
