  • I just installed a multifunction Lexmark Pro905 printer and it will not print from Firefox, but will from Explorer????

    I just installed a multifunction Lexmark Pro905 printer and it will not print articles from Firefox, but will from Explorer??? Are there settings in Firefox to solve this??

    When you initiate printing with {Ctrl + P}, are you able to select that printer in the Printer - Name box?

  • Can I import my Firefox settings & bookmarks from a external hard drive to Firefox that is installed on my laptop?

    My PC recently died. Won't do anything when then power button is pushed. I have the C drive from the PC backed up on a external hard drive, & I would like to know if I can somehow transfer the Firefox bookmarks & settings from the external hard drive to my laptop that is also running Firefox. The PC was running Windows XP, the laptop is running Windows 7. Thanks, Alex

    I was waiting to surf web with firefox from my phone for a long time. can anyone please let me know any known solution to it.

    The mobile version of Firefox for Android requires a processor that supports the ARMv7 architecture, the LG Optimus P500 does not meet that requirement, it supports the ARMv6 architecture.

  • I can't stop the Firefox Start page from opening - in addition to my default page - each time I open Firefox

    # Question
    I can't stop the Firefox Start page from opening - in addition to my default page - each time I open Firefox

    Is this the Firefox branded Google page? If it is, Firefox can store multiple home pages and you may have 2 home pages set. Follow the instructions to set a single home page in this link - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
    If it is the Firefox has just updated page that keeps on appearing, there may be a different problem, for details on fixing that see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Firefox+has+just+updated+tab+shows+each+time+you+start+Firefox

  • Firefox is frozen, mac can't restart and firefox can uninstall because it is open - HELP!

    Firefox is frozen, unresponsive script window popped up, can't shut dow Firefox, can't shut down my mac book because Firefox is open and can't uninstall Firefox because it is Firefox is open. How do I unfreeze it?

    I recommend trying to disable unnecessary plugins and addons as they might be the root of the problem. You should also update to the latest version.

  • IMac G5 (10.3.9) display died. Saved hard drive as external disk. Can't import bookmarks from Firefox 2.0.0.2 to use on Mac Mini (10.4.11).

    My G5 ran OSX 10.3.9 (highest functional version for that hardware). My Mac Mini (core solo) runs OSX 10.4.1.1 or thereabouts. I don't like the way any other browser works on the Mini, so I want to continue using Firefox, which was my default browser on the iMac, and I had years and years' worth of bookmarks on the iMac that I hope I don't have to rebuild one at a time. The iMac crash involved the display; the hard drive is completely functional and is in a new external drive case. The Apple Store folks said they're not allowed to work on such an old machine and likely it couldn't be repaired anyway. So, I have Firefox and presumably all its bookmarks (and maybe bookmarks backups) on the external hard drive, but the version of Firefox I copied to the Mac Mini does not appear to include any of my bookmarks, and the Firefox web site instructions for restoring Bookmarks from Firefox to Firefox don't address this older version. (I've even tried opening Firefox on the external drive and all I get is the 'clean slate' version with none of my old bookmarks.) How do I restore bookmarks from one version of Firefox to the same version of Firefox, just on a different, newer OS?

    Firefox 2 versions use the file bookmarks.html to store the bookmarks.

    With Mac OS X 10.4 you can use Firefox 3.5 or 3.6

  • Click & Clean appeared claiming to be from firefox, Can you confirm it is from you and safe It looked a bit dodgy!

    CLICK & CLEAN appeared as a download a friend with much knowledge of computers thought it looked a bit dodgy, It was claiming to be from Firefox he thought I should find out what I can before doing anything,it is very persistent and is on my browser every time I open. HELP!!

    Hi Glipmom, Firefox will update the themes and extensions you have installed, but as far as I know, it never installs new ones for you. Those would need to be installed at your request.
    If the problem is a new feature inside Firefox -- such as a toolbar -- you should review your add-ons on the following tab and disable ALL nonessential or unrecognized plugins and extensions. By nonessential I mean you do not intentionally use it for daily browsing. Basically, you need Shockwave Flash, but you can browse without most other stuff.
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Plugins category <br>
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Extensions category
    Then restart Firefox and test again. Can you get rid of it?
    If not, please describe the symptoms you have in more detail. For example, unwanted toolbars, unwanted startup tabs, changed home page, changed search provider, unexpected ads, etc. Please be as specific as possible.

  • MacBook Pro can't open in Firefox, always goes to Safari

    I have a MacBook Pro - OS X, 10.8.2, and want the default browser to be Firefox, not Safari.
    The consistent advice is: Safari/Preferences/General and showing Firefox as the default browser. I have done this, and when I start up I keep getting Safari, not Firefox. I can then click on Firefox from the Launchpad and it comes up and works fine; I would just like to avoid the extra steps I take to quit Safari and start Firefox.
    The Apple representative with whom I spoke took me through the above steps and was baffled that it didn't work. She suggested that I contact Firefox, so that's what I am doing. Please help. There must be some setting I have inadvertently done to myself.
    Thanks. Rob Jones

    Solved my problem!! Thanks!!

  • I can no longer get firefox to print a web page. I am using the print command in the drop down 'file' menu

  • From Firefox, can I open an FTP site in Windows Explorer?

    Firefox presents a simple FTP view of files. Firefox does not support active FTP mode, or uploading. Thus, some other program must be used to navigate and work an FTP site.
    Windows - Internet Explorer - provides a connection to open and view an FTP site via Windows Explorer.
    Why can't Firefox do the same?

    You can look at:
    * FireFTP: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/684
    * FileZilla: http://filezilla.sourceforge.net/

  • When I print from Firefox, the print is very light. When I print from Safari, the print is as it should be. Is there a way for me to change the print settings in Firefox?

    The print intensity problem is only present when I am using Firefox.

    There is a known bug involving printing in beta 12 that has been fixed in the Firefox 4 release candidate which is due out soon.

  • Why Can't I Sync Firefox with Device from 4 Months Ago

    The last time I sync'd my Firefox bookmarks was 4 months ago. There were A LOT of bookmarks, and I'm trying to get them back, but when I sync, it does not restore my bookmarks. Why aren't they syncing?

    The Sync Key isn't used in Firefox 29+ versions.
