Can't save/download pages/files in FF 12.

A few days ago, my good old FF (12) stopped downloading and saving. Actually, in the download screen it looks as if it was downloaded (shows in its full size in the Download screen), but the 'open' option is gray and it can't be found in the download folder.
Also, when using 'save as' for web pages, only the html folder (images, etc.) is found where saved, but its 'mate' (the htm file) is not, and the 'open' option (on download screen) is gray.
I deleted the mimetype.rdf and the downloads.sqlite files;
I disabled all the relevant FF addons, changed downloading folder etc.--- nothing helps.
Do you have any idea?
Thanks

Hi,
Have you searched for the files in other locations?? It looks like an external Windows program, or perhaps a Firefox add-on is automatically transferring the files to another predefined location, or deleting the files. You can check the latter by starting Firefox in [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Safe%20Mode Safe Mode].

  • How can I save a page and all its component parts in a single file, like IE does as an MHT - it's much easier for mailing to people where page address not available?? (as in output from an airline booking site, for example)

    how can I save a page and all its component parts in a single file, like IE does as an MHT?
    It's much easier for mailing to people where page address not available?? (as in output from an airline booking site, for example)
    It is simply too painful to have to zip everything up into a single file to send. MHT format has been available for years now from IE, and with every new FF release it's the first thing I look for. I have been using FF for years, and hate having to come out of it, over into IE |(which I even took out of startup) and key everything in again, in order to send somebody something in a convenient format that they can open with a single click.
    I can't believe this hasn't been asked before, so have you looked at it and rejected it? Have MS kept the file format secret?
    Thanks

    This is not really an answer just my comments on your question.
    I am sure I recollect efforts being made to get mhtml to work with FF.
    Probably the important thing to remember about .mhtml is that if other browsers do support it they may need addons, and may not necessarily render the content correctly/consistently.
    There are FF addons designed for archiving webpages, you could try them, but that then assumes the recipient has the same software.
    You could simply save the page from FF to your XP pc; then offline open it with and save it using IE, before then emailing using FF, and attaching the .mht or mhtml file that you have now created on your PC.
    As an alternative method, in some cases it could be worth considering taking a screen grab of the required page, then sending that to the recipient as a single email attatchment using either a bitmap or jpeg file format for instance.
    Something such as an airline booking may be designed with a print option, possibly it could be worthwile looking at sending the print file itself as an email attachment.

  • How can I save the .mp4 files downloaded from internet to ipad memory so that I don't have to download everytime to view them again

    How can I save the .mp4 files downloaded from internet to ipad memory so that I don't have to download everytime to view them again. Also they might remove them from internet so I can't rely on the bookmark to them.

    I'm trying to send home movies to my 10 year old nephew who lives across the country. He doesn't have a computer. He has an iPod touch. His parents have computers. But I don't want everything I ever try to have him do result in "you need your parent's computer for this." It's getting really embarrassing. I have converted my family over to Apple computers but now they want to buy iPhones, iPads, and iPods even though I tell them to go Android. It took a decade to convert them away from windows now I'm trying to keep them away from these freedom limited iOS devices and they won't listen. Then it becomes my responsibility to make their iPads print to their fancy pre-airprint color laser jet printers, get home movies onto them, and countless other things. It's driving me nuts.
    I have converted these files to a format that the iOS devices will play directly off of dropbox. Now, how do I get the infernal devices to save it instead of play it?

  • I can't save previous word files I have into iWork's, I have dropped the file into pages, but it says it can't convert text, even though I have changed a selective fond from pages

    I can't save previous word files I have into iWork's, I have dropped the file into pages, but it says it can't convert text, even though I have changed a selective fond from pages! Help!

    Take us through this in more detail.
    What is the Word file? From a PC?
    What version of Word and what is the file extension?
    What is it about the text that is different?
    When you say fond do you mean font/typeface? If so what font, and is it on your Mac? Is there something special/different about this font?

  • How can i hide a pages file from other users

    How can I hide a pages file so other users can't open or see it?

    My own tip is to save this kind of doc in an encrypted disk image (the .dmg items)
    Such item resemble to every downloaded installer so it doesn' take special attention and the encryption scheme is an efficient one.

    Word can't read .pages documents. You have to export the Pages  document to a Word document. File > export or share > Word
    Download the Pages User Guide from your Pages Help menu to learn more about how Pages works.

    Given there are so many problems and removed features in Pages 5, why not just continue using Pages '09?

  • How do I save a pages file to a word doc?  My save as disappeared!, how do I save a pages file to a word doc?  My save as disappeared!

    how do I save a pages file to a word doc?  My save as disappeared!

    You can Duplicate the file then Save it as a .doc file.
    In Mountain Lion (I don't think this is in Lion), you would click on File then press the Option key to get 'Save As'.

  • No file size appears when I save a .pages file

    When I save a .pages file there is no file size listed in the directory. In the file directory it says only -- where all the other files have a size in KB or MB listed in that column.
    What's going on here?
    The file can be opened without a problem. And when I right click on the listing and choose Get Info, the file size is there in that pop up window -but not in the listing.
    I cannot email this file either -because, I guess, it reads the listing as an empty file.
    I can convert it to a .doc file and email that, but as a .pages file I get nothing.
    What's going on here?

    Any thoughts as to might of happened? I'm using Captivate 6.0.0.199. Until a week ago this functionality was working fine.

    Captivate 6.0.0.199 had several issues. Upgrade to 6.0.1.240 from here and check.
