File dialog (Save, Open, Export, etc.) does not appear in Firefox

Hello,
I am having a very similar problem to the one described in this link ...
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/990487?esab=a&as=aaq
... and I can provide some additional information.
In my case, the issue is not isolated to saving a file (although, that is where I first noticed it). It is definitely an issue with trying to display the common File dialog - be it for saving a file from a link, or File -> Save Page As, or File -> Open File, or Bookmarks -> Show All Bookmarks -> Import and Backup (to/from HTML), etc., etc.
Here are the things I have already tried (not necessarily in this order):
Uninstall/Reinstall
Safe Mode
New Profile
Disabled Anti-Virus/Firewall
Reset Firefox
I also tried regressing to v27.0.1, and still saw the same (mis)behaviour. I am totally perplexed.
Any help/insight you can provide will be greatly appreciated! :-)

Yes. Sorry, I should have mentioned that there have been several reboots involved during the troubleshooting.
I am running Firefox in an admin level account in this case - so, there shouldn't be any permission issues there.
I have tried shutting down both the desktop firewall software, and the anti-virus, and the problem still persists exactly as described. (Obviously, I disconnected the system when I did that [smile].)
All other software on the system that I have tried, interacts with the file dialog just fine ... so, I don't think it is anything central like some corruption associated with the file dialog itself.
As I said, it is most perplexing.

  • Lightroom 5 file edited in photoshop cc 2014 does not appear back next to original after save. Is anyone else having this issue? If so what is the fix.  The edited image appears back in lightroom in a new folder.

    Lightroom 5 file edited in photoshop cc 2014 does not appear back next to original after save. Is anyone else having this issue? If so what is the fix.  The edited image appears back in lightroom in a new folder.

    I'm performing a normal "Save", not "Save As". Work flow I'm using is as follows:  Select photo in Lightroom 5.7 >" Edit In" Photoshop CC 2014 > (after working on photo is PS) > Save > close PS. Photo returns to Lightroom 5.7 in a new folder rather than next to the original. Prior to purchasing the monthly plan and upgrading to PS CC 2014, I performed this same work flow using Lightroom 5.6 and Photoshop CS6 without any issues.
    Just for fun... I attempted to move the edited file back into the original folder. I received a prompt that said the file already existed in the original folder, however I can't see it except the new folder that LR created. I tried several different sort orders, etc without any success.
    *** Follow up: Was unable to resolve the issue using Photoshop CC 2014. Uninstalled PS CC 2014 and went back to using Photoshop CS6. Return trips from LR 5.7 to Photoshop is now performing as it should: returning edited photo back to the original folder in LR 5 and placing next to the original image.
    Should anyone have a suggestion on getting Photoshop CC 2014 to do the same, I would love to be educated.
    Thanks for the help, dj_paige.

  • Adobe Audition does not playback any audio file. He opens it but does not react on the play key.

    Adobe Audition CC does not playback any audio file. He opens it but does not react on the play key. It is after use audio hardware usb wi-fi headphone and return to build-it out. The program don't react now.
    I see problem:
    I am unable to get playback at all in CS6 on Mac. The play button or spacebar will not move the playhead or make sound come out of the foamy things with the magnets. The play button toggles back and forth between green and white, but it isn't working. This is true in both multi track and waveform view.
    Anyone have ideas on what the issue could be? Thanks!
    Some Info:
    MacBook Pro 2.2 i7, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD
    Mac OS 10.8.3
    Audition CS6 5.0.2 Build 5
    and reply:
    Best bet would be to go into Preferences > Audio Hardware, verify your input and output devices are correct, and probably switch your Master Clock to the opposite setting.  If that fails, we can continue troubleshooting.
    I have the same problem as the author writes. But these actions do not help

    Unfortunately I believe that requires purchasing the new version, and I do
    not have budget approval for such a purchase.

  • I can't get my password manager working. It remembers passwords for websites but when I enter in a new password (because this had to be changed) or when I have a new username + PW that I wish to save, the password manager does not appear.

    If you updated your existing account then try logging out of it on the iPhone by tapping on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on the iPad.
    If you created a new account then you can log out of the old account and in with the new one as above, but any content that you purchased/downloaded via the old account will remain tied to that old account, and only that old account can re-download its content and download updates to its apps.

  • TS1538 When I open itunes, "Devices" does not appear at all in the left column on the screen, therefore I can not sync my ipod touch.

    When I open itunes, "Devices" does not appear t all in the left column on the screen. I can not sync my ipod with my itunes library. Suggestions?

    If you  have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar

  • The site icon does not appear in Firefox

    I am developing a site (http://www.londonglamourphotoshoot.co.uk/index.html) but the site icon (the little icon that appears next to the site title in the tab label) does not appear in Firefox. It appears in Internet Explorer and Chrome, but for some reason, Firefox ignores it while it shows the icons of other sites perfectly.
    If I show the source code of the page and then click in the hiperlink of the icon, then the icon loads as an image, so it is the correct link (and as I said, IE and Chrome display it)
    Here is the line Muse generates:
    <link rel="shortcut icon" href="images/favicon.ico?4188924898"/>
    (I don't know the reason of the question mark and the number after the icon URL, but this is as Muse writes it)
    I load the icon in the properties window of the master page only so it is inherited by all other pages of the site.

    I doubt it. The filename of the original file is just favicon.png and it was loaded in the generic site properties (not in a master page or in the individual pages). The question mark and number are part of the code generation process by Muse. What's more, Windows would not allow me to name a file with a question mark, it is a forbidden character, but in an URL it means additional arguments or something like that if I'm not mistaken. .

  • "Open in" option does not appear.

    I was using dropbox on my iPad air and as I attemted to open a document in another app, I saw that the "open in" option didn't appear, I checked to see if safari open in worked and it didn't appear as an option, the "open in" option did not appear on my iPod touch 5G either. Why does it not appear? What can I do to fix this? I really need it, but have not used it before. No files allow me to open them within another app, I have various apps that can open these documents.
    The only options that appear when I open the sharing tab is airdrop, (I would not like to use this for what I want to do), message, mail, twitter, facebook and "copy link", that's it. I would like to open this file in iBooks.

    Looks like it will only work on the right menu after opening the document.

  • When iTunes is opened the menu does not appear properly but script does

    Reset your iPad. Press and hold both the power and home buttons for 10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Release both buttons. Wait 15-20 seconds till you iPad starts on it's own. Now try and download an app.

  • The Full Screen icon does not appear in Firefox 16.0.2 on Mac OS 10.6.8, and command+shift+F does not close the full screen view.

    I accidentally entered full screen view and was unable to exit. The Firefox Help article at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-make-firefox-and-websites-go-full-screen?esab=a&s=full+screen+mac&r=0&as=s says I should see a Full Screen View icon in the upper right-hand corner of the Firefox window. That icon not there. I cannot find it. It does not appear in either the full screen or non-full screen views.
    Further, the Help article's advice to exit full screen view by using the keyboard sequence command+shift+F does not work. I had to unplug my iMac and reboot. Firefox then opened in non-full screen view.
    Ideally, hitting the Escape key would cause Firefox to exit full screen view.

    I forgot one detail. This happened while I was having trouble seeing the mouse cursor (I use Apple's Magic Mouse). It had disappeared briefly. I had to drag the cursor out of the Firefox Window for it to reappear. I accidentally entered full screen view while the cursor was not visible.

  • Adobe Create pdf icon does not appear in Firefox 36.0.1

    I am using Windows 10 TP and have used Adobe Acrobat XI with Firefox for months now and have been able to click on the Adobe Icon on the FIrefox toolbar to convert web pages into an Acrobat file. In the last couple of weeks this icon has disappered but the following items still exist:-
    1. Under Options/Applications Portable Document Format (PDF) is still set to Use Adobe Acrobat (default)
    2. In the list of Add-ons I still have an entry Adobe Acrobat 11.0.10.32. This is the Adobe PDF Plug-in for Firefoc and Netscape.
    3. I have uninstalled ALL add-ons ansd re-installed but that does not resolve the problem
    4. I have uninstalled Firefox and re-installed it again but that does not resolve the problem
    Can you please offer any suggestions to resolve this problem?

  • Mapquest sign in box does not appear in Firefox but does in Internet Explorer. Why? Have disabled add ons but no luck.

    The sign in box does not show up on Mapquest when I use Firefox. If I use Internet Explorer, the sign in box appears. I disabled the Firefox add-ons thinking there might be a conflict but no luck. Mapquest support is at a dead end, too, especially with it working in IE but not in Firefox. Suggestions?
