Clicking on the downward arrow at the right end of the location bar no longer displays the drop-down list of sites visited, bookmarks and addresses typed in location bar

Since I upgraded to Firefox version 3.6.10, clicking on the downward arrow at the right end of the location bar no longer displays the drop-down list of sites visited, bookmarks and addresses typed in location bar. My Tools > Options > privacy setting is to save history, and if I start typing a previously accessed website's address in the location bar, then the full address appears as a drop-down item. But not when I just click at the right end of the bar.

You can try "Reset all user preferences to Firefox defaults" on the [[Safe mode]] start window.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • How can I increase the number of Tags displayed in Drop down list?

    When I go to Bookmarks/Tags, there are only 10 tags displayed. I have created at least 15 tags.
    Is there a way to increase the number of Tags displayed in the Drop down list?
    Thanks

    Do you mean "Recent Tags" which has an icon a blue-colored folder with a primitive looking magnifying glass over the folder?
    That folder does have a limit of 10 results. If you want to create an "All Tags" item on the Boomarks Menu, you can do that by creating your own "smart folder." The process I use is a little involved, so bear with me (also, see the screen shots).
    The query used by Recent Tags is:
    place:type=6&sort=14'''&maxResults=10'''
    So for All Tags we will drop the maximum results limit:
    place:type=6&sort=14
    ''If you prefer your tags in alphabetical order instead of having the most recently used at the top, use this instead:''
    place:type=6&sort=1
    Go ahead and select the line you want and right-click > copy it.
    Next, click the bookmarks drop-down button, expand the Bookmarks Toolbar, right-click any existing item, and choose New Bookmark.
    In Location, paste the query, and in name, type All Tags (or your preferred description). When you click Add Bookmark, Firefox will add it, but it doesn't show the blue search folder icon. Drag the bookmark to the menu, and it will turn into a functioning search folder.
    Success?

  • How do I modify the contents of the drop down list of sites in the navigation toolbar?

    The navigation toolbar has a drop down icon, and when I click on it, I get a list of 10 or so web sites. These appear to be the first 10 sites that I visited since my history was last cleared. I would like these instead to be sites that I often visit, and would like to update the list periodically. I cannot find any way to modify this list of sites.

    Remove those sites from the history. That drop down list is based on bonus points that are added if you visit a link.

  • Using Firefox 4, the URL bar no longer displays the web address for my current web-site so I can't copy and paste links. Plus there's no refresh button.

    I upgraded to Firefox 4 and so far I really don't like it, but I still would like to give it a chance. However, the URL address bar no longer shows the current address for websites that I surf into. So it makes sharing pages or emailing links next to impossible. In addition to that, there is no Refresh icon that I can find so I'm stuck just hitting F5 to refresh my page.
    Short of downgrading, is there anyway I can change those particular issues?

    That issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
    In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in <u>[[Safe mode]]</u>:
    * Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    * Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

  • The back/forward button no longer has a drop-down list of previous pages visited in that tab: or is this accessible some other way?

    The question says it all, really. I just installed Firefox 4, and noticed a significant (for me) reduction in utility: in the previous version, the back button used to have a drop-down arrow which showed the previous pages visited in a particlular tab, and allowed you to go back several pages in one go, if you wanted to (say, when browsing a series of sites to buy something or other). Firefox 4 no longer has this facility, which I personally found very useful from time to time.
    Is it available by some other means? If not, maybe I should consider reverting to the previous version, which suited me better, in this regard at least.

    Just put the little arrow back into the system. Fix this now. I don't want 2 other options. Get this right for "nontech" people.

  • What happened to the drop down list that said recent bookmarks?

    On Firefox to the right side of the page, there is a little star, and when you move your mouse on it, it
    will say, bookmark this page. Next to the star is a little icon, that says show your bookmarks.
    So, when I use to click on that icon, it would say most recent bookmarks, along with bookmarks toolbar, and unsorted
    bookmarks. I would like to know what happened to the icon that said, most recent bookmarks, or recently added bookmarks.
    I would appreciate any help in this matter.
    Many thanks.
    Enjoy your day!

    See:
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/restore-default-smart-bookmarks-folders
    * "Most Visited" and "Recently Bookmarked" and "Recent Tags" are examples of so called [[Smart Bookmarks folders|Smart Bookmarks folders]] and are not real existing folders.
    * Smart folders show a list created by a query of the places.sqlite database that stores bookmarks and history in Firefox.
    * Smart folder lists show a maximum of 10 entries by default.
    * Bookmarks and history items that show up in a smart folder list are stored elsewhere in another folder and any changes made are applied to the real bookmark or history item.
    * If you add a new bookmark or visit a website then a new item is added at the top and the entry at the bottom disappears from that list.
    * Items that disappear from the list are not gone, but merely do not show up anymore in that list.
    * Actions like copy & paste or delete that you perform on bookmarks in such a list are done on the original bookmark.

  • The web address bar no longer displays the url of the open tab, the refresh button doesn't work any longer, and the more time FF is open, the slower it eventually runs.

    Downloaded FF4 a while back. Not the beta version. All seemed to work well for a while. Then the aforementioned problems began. I did not add any plugins or make any changes at all. Web site addresses do not show in tabs, and the refresh button is non-functional. After FF4 has been open a while, it begins to run slower and slower as if there is a memory leak.

    This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • The "Remember Password" volatile menu bar no longer displays when I enter a required site login/password data.

    When I attempt to log into a site that requires login / password data, the pop-up menu bar that would ask whether to save this password data or not momentarily displays then disappears befor I can tick my choice.
    I tried re-installing Firefox but that didn't change the situation.
    Please help as I can't log into a local server any more that requires login / password credentials.

    I restarted the computer and checked what errors it was returning, these are all the errors i got.

  • Where is the option to see a drop down of past pages visited and go to one of those, instead of having to repeatedly click the "back" button?

    In other browsers, and previous versions of firefox, there was a drop down list of previously visited pages accessed by clicking a down arrow, where is this feature?.... without it, you are forced to repeatedly click "back"....and also some pages will not allow you to retreat, so to speak..so with the ability to go back more than one page at a time, you can get out of there.....where is that option, and why is it not there?

    The arrow to open the tab history of the Back and Forward buttons has been removed in Firefox 4.
    Use one of these methods to open the tab history list:
    * Right click on the Back or Forward button
    * Hold down the left mouse button on the enabled Back or Forward button until the list opens
    You can look at this extension:

  • How to increase the width of the drop down list box in SSRS multi value parameter

    Hi,
    I am using SSRS 2012. I have a parameter, which accepts multi value.
    The width of the drop down list box is very small, and the user need to scroll to the right to view the complete view of the content in the list box. But, if I don't use multi value then the length is good.  Kindly suggest how to I increase the width
    of the list box when it set to multi value parameter.
    Thanks in advance,
    Mahalengam Arumugam

    Hi Mahalengam,
    After testing the issue in my local environment, I can reproduce it. When the values for a single parameter are too long, the drop-down list of the parameter will automatically enlarge to an appropriate size. While the values for a multiple parameter are
    too long, we need to scroll to the right to view the complete view of the content in the list box in SSRS 2008. But in SSRS 2008R2 and SSRS 2012, we can directly drag the black control at the bottom of the list box to control the size.
    The following screenshot is for your reference:
    If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.
    Thanks,

    Hi Katherine,
    Thanks for your reply. I understood we need to drag the list box to a maximum size to view the contents.
    But, this seems an additional task, i know this is a limitation in the current version of SSRS and hope it will be resolved in the next versions.
    Thanks for your efforts,
    Mahalengam Arumugam

  • Create a drop down list that populates based on the selection form another drop down list.

    I need to set up a drop down list that is popualated (i.e. displays a certain list of selctions in the drop down list) based on the choise the form user selects in an adjacent List
    For example
    There are two drop down list field sitting side by side in the form
    1. Select State          2. Select Course
    What I want to do is have a list of states in the first drop down list (1.Select State) and depending on which state the form user selects , the second drop down list (2.Select Course) will populate with a selction of courses available in that selected state only (i.e. it will on;y show course available in QLD if QLD is selcted).
    Is this hard to do?

  • In email, when entering address, the drop down list contains old email addresses. How do I remove them?

    In email on my IPAD, when typing an address into the to: field, the drop down list which appears has old email addresses. How do I remove them?

    Removing addresses from the Contacts list will not solve this. Apparently it will take time for such addresses to be pushed off the drop down list.
