Do I select "delete browsing histroy" in Windows 7 or while on the Firefox web page (your instructions are not clear regarding this)

I have read your instructions on the Firefox website. What is not clear to me is, do I accomplish "privacy settings" and "delete browsing history" within the Firefox web site or do I do this offline through Windows 7 "internet settings". The Firefox tab (upper left) does not offer the menu choices that your instructions refer to. My laptop (offline) "internet settings" refer to Internet Explorer settings (which I am not using) so it's not clear that changes in my preferences are affecting Firefox (or just Internet Explorer)

[[Remove recent browsing, search and download history]]

  • Suddenly in both ff 3.6 and beta 4 all of my add-ons are gone; they are all listed on the add-on page but they are not on the browser--help!

    One day when I opened ff all the add-ons had disappeared. I've uninstalled ff and re-installed. I've installed beta 4. I've uninstalled some of the add-ons and re-installed them...nothing makes a difference. I tried deleting extension configuration files in case they were corrupt (per support page)...no help. I'm using Chrome right now but I want my firefox back, I miss it so! Can anyone help me?

    Delete the files extensions.* (extensions.rdf, extensions.cache, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox [[Profiles|profile folder]] to reset the extensions registry. New files will be created when required.
    See "Corrupt extension files": http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
    If you see disabled, not compatible, extensions in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the "Find Updates" button (in Firefox 4: right-click the extension -> "Find Updates") to do a compatibility check.

  • Trying to download the latest Firefox on Windows 7 laptop but the Firefox setup page says it's downloading for 1hour now and shows no signs of finishing.

    Hi Martin,
    Sorry to hear Firefox isn't downloading.
    I'd like to try a different download link with you. Could you follow this instructions and let us know whether they work?
    # Go to: https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/latest/win32/
    # Click the relevant link for your locale/language. (British English is en-GB, US English is en-US, etc)
    # Click ''Firefox Setup 34.0.5.exe''. This is quite a large file, so might take a few minutes to download. Once it's downloaded, run the file and it should install Firefox.
    To explain: the ''Firefox Setup 34.0.5.exe'' file will contain everything you need to install Firefox. ''Firefox Setup Stub 34.0.5.exe'' is the normal installer - it doesn't include all of the Firefox files, but instead will download them after you start the installation. Hopefully if we download the full Firefox installer, it will work.
    Cheers,
    Jayelbe

    Hi Jayelbe
    Thanks for the suggested solution. Yes it has worked!

  • Help ! web page navigation links are not broken but do not show up when viewing on browser

    multiple page website in progress, links checked site wide; none broken...linked all pages relative to: Site Root.When opening content file and index.html file on my desktop only the background color appears. What have I overlooked?

    Nancy O, since you were kind enough to respond I thought that I would ask you for more help.  I took your suggestion and also went to the Adobe  DW help / preview pages section this is what I found:
    Note:  Content linked with a site root-relative path does not appear when you preview documents in a local browser unless you specify a testing server, or select the Preview Using Temporary File option in Edit > Preferences > Preview In Browser. This is because browsers don’t recognize site roots—servers do.
    Nancy O  I linked the 12 pages together as Site Root-Relative and I do as you said to no avail.   Since this website does not have a domain name (yet);   is it possible that I may have to relink all as Document-Relative? and if so is there a faster way than manually switching one by one ( it's over 270 links)    Thank you again for your help.

  • Your Client Does not Support Opening this list with Windows Explorer on Windows Server 2012 R2

    I am trying to open a document library in Internet Explorer 11 on a Windows 2012 R2 server and I am receiving Your Client Does not Support Opening this list with Windows Explorer

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to open a document library with the Internet Explorer 11 on a Windows 2012 R2 server. But you received the following error message: Your client
    does not support opening this list with Windows Explorer.
    There can be multiple reasons for it.
    So, I recommend you can check with the following steps:
    Go to the “Server Manager” of “Administrative Tools” > Enable the “Desktop Experience” feature in your environment.
    Go to the “Services” of “Administrative Tools” >
    Ensure the “WebClient” service is started.
    Ensure that your computer has supported Web browser.
    Ensure that Internet Explorer is configured correctly to add
    https://*.sharepoint.com to Local intranet site in the “Security Tab” of “Internet Options”.
    Ensure that
    you have applied the latest updates on the system.
    For more information, you can refer to the following articles:

  • Error: Your client does not support opening this list with Windows Explorer.

    I have enabled both authentication (Windows and FBA) on default zone, now when I want to open any document library on windows explorer it showing me an error.
    Your client does not support opening this list with Windows Explorer.
    Web client service is running on server.
    Desktop Experience feature is also enabled on server
    Windows explorer is working fine when FBA is disbled on default zone.
    Need both authentcation on default zone.

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you got “Your client does not support opening this list with Windows Explorer” error.
    You can use compatibility mode to check whether it works.
    Open IE->Tools->Compatibility View Settings
    You can also add the site into Trusted sites.
    Open the IE->Internet Options->Security->Sites->add the site into the Websites, then check whether it works.
    In addition, you can also try to enable Basic authentication on the client computer, by setting the BasicAuthLevel registry entry of the following key:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WebClient\Parameters

  • Have new update but when i am on trying to sync I have no scroll down bar to select option on the bottom of pages so sync is not done with all i want on it.  Using my arrow keys also dont work.  I have deleted itunes

    Have new update but when i am on trying to sync I have no scroll down bar to select option on the bottom of pages so sync is not done with all i want on it.  Using my arrow keys also dont work.  I have deleted itunes and reinstall but its still the same.  Any ideas?

    iPod touches or any iDevices from Apple sync only to one computer. If you sync to a different computer, all your music will be replace with the music from the new computer's iTunes. If the music were purchased from iTunes, you can re-download them again otherwise the music on iPod touch will be deleted. Do you have iTunes backup? 

  • Will the firefox web browser run on windows 2000?

    I'm new to firefox and have one question.
    Will the firefox web browser run on windows 2000?
    System details: Win 2000, Version 5, SP 4. X86 @ 930MHz.
    Will download and try. Thank you for your help.

    Firefox should run on windows 2000, what are the system specs?
    Let me know if it doesn't.

  • There appears to be a MAJOR issue (hang/memory leak) in "about:home", also known as the Firefox Start Page, in Firefox 26.0 on Windows!

    There appears to be a MAJOR issue (hang/memory leak) in "about:home", also known as the Firefox Start Page, in Firefox 26.0, on Windows!
    observed on:
    - Windows 7 x64 machine with 12GB RAM and high-performance CPU (core i7-920)
    - Virtual Machine guest running WinXP SP3 (in Oracle VirtualBox) on the same machine
    - Intel Atom D525 netbook with 4GB RAM, running Win7 x64
    Neither of these machines are connected via Sync or anything like that. The Firefox instance on the VM is a fresh/clean install.
    The problem:
    - 100% cpu usage for 10 seconds, memory usage (PF usage in XP) goes up to 1.7GB
    - if "about:home" is the Firefox Start Page, effectively it hangs the computer at Firefox startup for 10 seconds
    - if "about:home" is NOT the Firefox Start Page, startup is fine - BUT if I press the "home" button on the toolbar it loads "about:home" which causes the same issue again

    Thank you cor-el! Your suggestion has solved the problem on my WinXP VM which I was using to test, and I will soon confirm that it has also solved the problem on my primary Win7 desktop.
    To recap:
    - I set "browser.aboutHomeSnippets.updateUrl" to an empty string
    OLD VALUE: https://snippets.mozilla.com/%STARTPAGE_VERSION%/%NAME%/%VERSION%/%APPBUILDID%/%BUILD_TARGET%/%LOCALE%/%CHANNEL%/%OS_VERSION%/%DISTRIBUTION%/%DISTRIBUTION_VERSION%/
    NEW VALUE: (blank)
    - I deleted the folder \storage\persistent\moz-safe-about+home under the Profile directory
    Actual folder name on WINDOWS XP:
    C:\Documents and Settings\<USERNAME>\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<PROFILENAME>\storage\persistent\moz-safe-about+home
    However I have a concern that the '''OLD VALUE''' of "browser.aboutHomeSnippets.updateUrl" will creep back in, in a future update! Can you communicate this issue to someone on the development team?

  • IE11/Win 8.1 error 'Your client does not support opening this list in windows explorer'

    I hoping someone might be able to help with this frustrating issue.
    I work on a project where we are using various versions of on-line SharePoint (2007/O365).  In order to quickly drag and drop folders we need to often open the document libraries by using the 'open in windows explorer view'.
    Using the same device, on occassion this works.  But often it gives a rather unhelpful message 'Your client does not support opening this list in Windows Explorer'. 
    I've searched for this issue over the net and confirm that the sites are added to the 'trusted' sites area and that the 'remember you credientials' is checked on logging in.However, the searches do not seem to apply to IE11/Win8.1 or on-line version of sharepoint
    (the suggested hot fix is not suitable)
    Only this morning, using the same device I was able, for a short while to open in explorer view, and then for no apparent reason, it began to display the error message.  I had changed nothing regarding settings or even closed the browser.
    Do you have any support/ideas/fixes on how to resolve this.
    Many thanks
    val

    Hi Val,
    sometimes an answer can be found on the internet by typing the error message from your computer into your favourite search engine.
    eg.

    follow the directions given above.... you need to add the domains to your Intranet sites list, not the Trusted sites list.
    Perhaps you already have it mapped to your intranet zone....in which case make sure that you have unchecked "Enable Enhance Protected Mode" on the Intranet  zone dialog in Internet Options.
    If this is happening 'randomly' on client machines, then users are probably changing their internet security settings in Internet Options. Ensure they are accepting the default.... Internet Options>Security tab, click "Reset all zones to default".
    Consult with your system administrators to find out if they are applying a custom security template for the Intranet zone... It may be removing the sharepoint domains from the client Intranet zone's domains lists.
    HTH.

  • Trying to open a sharepoint library in Windows Explorer via IE 8 results in the error "your client does not support opening this list with windows explorer"

    I am attempting to connect to a Microsoft Sharepoint library, via the "Actions -> Open in Windows Explorer" option from the Sharepoint page.  When I do so, I get the error message "your client does not support opening this list with windows explorer".  In short, I am trying to get the "drag and drop" functionality of a Sharepoint library.
    I am running Windows 7 64-bit and IE8.  The target Sharepoint environment is a MOSS 2007 EE.  My Windows "WebClient" service is running, and I have no problem connecting to this exact library via a Windows XP computer running IE8.

    Verify that the Webclient is started automatically from the Services.msc
    Verify that your Portal is in the Intranet local security zone (You can reach it from Your Internet Explorer Browser Security Tag) if not add it to the list
    restart the WebClient service if it's work good
    If not you have to create a network share to your portal URL directly not your documents library.
    Open Windows Explorer or My Computer from the Windows Start Menu.
    From the Tools menu, click Map Network Drive…. A new Map Network Drive window opens.
    In the Map Network Drive window, choose an available drive letter from the dropdown list located next to the "Drive:" option. Any drives already mapped will have a shared folder name displayed inside the dropdown list, next to the drive letter.
    Type the name of the folder to map wich is in this case your SharePoint Portal URL (Don't include the documents libraries)
    Click the "Reconnect at login" checkbox if this network drive should be mapped permanently. Otherwise, this drive will un-map when the user logs out of this computer.
    If the remote computer that contains the shared folder requires a different username and password to log in, click the "different user name" hyperlink to enter this information.
    Click Finish.
    I am looking for a suite method :)

  • Explorer View - Your client does not support opening this list with Windows Explorer MOSS 2007 '

    We recently had a major deployement, after which Explorer View started giving error message.
    Before deployement, all was working fine.
    Error: Your client does not support opening this list with Windows Explorer
    Webclient service is already enabled.
    The site has been added to trusted site lists.
    All Active-x controls have been enabled.
    Browser: Internet Explorer 8 - 32 bit.
    Microsoft Office 32 bit is also installed.
    Thanx in advance.

    You could try updating the following registry key on a client PC as a test: HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\WebClient\Paramenters\AuthForwardServerList to include the URL of your sharpoint site. Add the root site and it might enable this functionality.

  • Every time I press the delete tab in Safari it either returns to my previous web page or crashes? Drivinh me nuts!

    Every time I press the delete tab in Safari it either returns to my previous web page or crashes?

    Launch the Console application by entering the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. If that doesn’t work, then in the Finder, press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    Look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash logs related to Safari, WebProcess, or PluginProcess. Select the most recent one of each and post the contents -- the text, please, not a screenshot. For privacy’s sake, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if present (it may not be.)

  • When you connect ipod nano to itunes is there a way to stop it deleteing the albums on it if they are not on my laptop anymore

    when you connect ipod nano to itunes is there a way to stop it deleteing the albums on it if they are not on my laptop anymore

    Yes, do not set it to automatic sync, and if these albums are purchases in iTunes, then you need to transfer them to your iTunes library. If you attempt to sync the device the music sync is one way, only from the library to the device. If this is music you did not purchase, but is on the iPod, you will need to get some 3rd party software to extract it from the iPod to put in the library. Touchcopy from Wide Angle Software is one choice. I have used it before and it does a lot more than music, and it works on both the Windows and Mac platforms.
