Firefox 19 preferences does not show cookies

In the privacy settings I have checked the box to accept cookies, but box to accept cookies from 3rd party sites is unchecked. Further setting are "use custom setting for history" and "tell websites not to track. Up until a few days ago, if I clicked show cookies it listed all the cookies of sites I had visited and I could remove them individually. All of a sudden Firefox (19) does not show any cookies in the box anymore. I have not changed any of the settings. How can I ensure to the see the cookies listed again?

I just entered this comment in Feedback. Are there others who think this is a good idea?
I have used Firefox for many years, and I've always been grateful for the superb work on a wonderful browser that is done in a great spirit of generosity by what must be a huge number of very good, very smart people. And in all those years, there has been one -- and only one -- persistent problem, cookies. The most recent change, which took away the list from "Show cookies" is an annoyance (and I see that there are at least 54 others who feel the same way) that only highlights the basic defect of cookie-handling: For those of us who prefer to allow cookies only when they are required by a site we want to visit (and again, I see from the questions and comments in "Help" that I'm not the only one who does this and yes, I know I can allow them selectively for sites I visit regularly, but often one arrives at a new site or wants to complete a transaction and gets stymied by the cookie requirement), the process of opening and closing the door has always been a multi-step pain in the neck. May I suggest that you put a button (that looks like a chocolate-chip cookie, my favorite) somewhere on the menu or navigation toolbar that would allow cookies when clicked the first time and cut them off while removing all cookies when clicked the second time?

  • Want to upgrade to lastest version - help/about Firefox window does not show "upgrade" as in instructions.

    I want to upgrade to latest version but -Help/About Firefox- window does not show "upgrade" as in the instructions. I cannot find an "upgrade" function anywhere else. How do I upgrade? The version I have is -18.0.1- it came with this used computer.
    I believe this computer was hacked. Word started doing very strange things. We wiped the hard drive and reloaded everything as it was originally when I bought it. I am now getting hacked online.
    They originally got into one of my credit cards last fall. That is when this all started. They got my AOL email address. They also got the credit card current balance, minimum payment, due date and then even the payment amount. They got into my Barnes & Noble account and now checkout does not work. Now I believe they have gotten into my AOL account - one thing after another has started going wrong. I cannot change that AOL user id/email address since it is the master and I would lose about 15 years of "stuff".
    The folks that sold me this computer told me to use a free version of an antivirus. I am very unhappy with it. I never had ANY trouble when I used TrendMicro's expense products. Those folks also told me to use Firefox, since AOL uses Internet Explorer - which I already knew is like Swiss cheese.
    Now, I cannot seem to get an upgrade of Firefox. Is this also a hack?
    Please help any way you can. Thank you for your time.

    It's probably just the Firefox updater having some problems. go to www.getfirefox.com and download Firefox 20.0.1

  • My firefox page does not show the bar that shows me file, edit, tools, etc bar. How do I get it back. thanks

    My Firefox page does not show the bar on top where you have "file, edit, view, history, bookmarks, tools, help etc

    Firefox 3.6+ versions have a feature to allow the user to hide the Menu bar.
    Hit the '''Alt''' key to temporarily show the Menu bar, then open View > Toolbars and select Menu bar, so it has a check-mark. <br />
    The F10 can also be used on most PC's to temporarily reveal the Menu bar.

I have FF re installed but now it wont show the start page and when trying to remove FF I am requested to first close FF. to do this I have to close my PC ( Windows XP) as the FF opening page does not show and I consequently can not close it
    I like using FF, all my bookmarked info and references for a book I am writing is on it so I have to get it working

    It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full, unrestricted, access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • My display preferences does not show detect displays or the arrangement button

    I have a late 2011 macbookpro (15") running OSX 10.8.2 (mt. lion).  My display preferences screen does not have the arrangements button or the button to detect displays. Is this a bug in mt. lion?  How do I fix this?  I want to use my hdtv (samsung 32") as a second display.

    Hi John,
    Thanks for your reply and update and for going through that article. I'm glad to hear the issues have partially resolved. For the continued issues, particularly the performance issues with the MacBook, it sounds like a different direction may be warranted.  Due to the nature of that issue you may find more information by using another one of Apple's support resources:

  • Firefox 4 does not show the current browsing history, and I cannot acess my privacy tab in the options

    My browsing history is incomplete, it only shows through August. I also cannot access the privacy tab in the options folder, nor can I click on the stop private browsing.

    Maybe your Trend Micro took over the Privacy tab in Options?
    Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there. <br />
    ''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
    * You can open the Firefox 4/5/6/7 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
    If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />

  • Why the restart firefox bubble does not show after installing an addon and the remember password bubble is closed (not now x)?

    When I go to a post login page, firefox offers to remember password.
    If this bubble is ignored (by pressing the x or by choosing the Not now option) and i download an add-on on that page that requires browser restart, the bubble of "restart now" which should get triggered after the installation of the add-on is not shown.
    Note: If i press on Remember password or never remember password on this site, the restart bubble shows.

    Possibly you could explain carefully what happens, listing the steps you take.
    As a test/example Would you be able for instance to recreate the problem with this forum as a login site with a password. And with for example this add-on

  • Why "firefox -help" does not show "-profile" option though it is supported

    I was trying to open a profile on another hard disk partiton on multiboot machine. I was trying to fild the option with firefox -help. But there was no mention of opening a profile by specifying path to profile. I had to dig out this link:
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Starting_Firefox_or_Thunderbird_with_a_specified_profile
    and the method is specified under "Bypassing the Profile Manager" section. Why is this not documented. are there any issues in using this method.
    I am using Firefox version 23

    Per one of the main Firefox developers in many Bug reports related to "Profiles" and the Profile Manager, expecially concerning Requests for Enhancement:
    ''' "The profile manager is not designed for "simple home users", who should normally never see it." '''
    '''" Public opinion doesn't really matter, it's a design decision that has been made." '''
    Thus many of the features of "playing with" Profiles isn't ducumented as well here at SUMO as you might find in the non-official MozillaZine KnowledgeBase and in their support fora. If you look carefully at the MozillaZine KB you'll find much documentation for older versions of Firefox and from long before this forum was started in 2008 ''(or was it 2007 ?)''.
    Please see this thread - http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=2249039 - and also view the 3 threads that I hyperlinked at the end of that article. There's a wealth of direct user suggestions contained in those four MozillaZine Builds support threads regarding "playing with" Profiles.

  • Firefox sync does not show up under "sync" on the computer I originally set it up on. How do I get it back?

    When I try and add new devices, I go to the options on Win7 and hit the sync tab and there are no scripts showing I have an account nor a script to add device. If I try to create a new account to have it show up on this computer, it won't allow me, says it is already in use.

    System is Win7 as shown above.
    Right after opening FF, you can press alt+space, then release and press m. You should now be able to use the arrow keys to move the window around the screen until it's visible.

  • Startup Disk (under System Preferences) does not show os X or Windows disks

    My startup disk options are not detected on Startup Disk. I can boot ok using either OS X 10.5.5 or Windows Vista if I startup holding the option key. Each system is stored on a separate drive on my Mac Pro. All drives appear to be fine.
    The only things I have done recently have been setting up my wife as a new user including a new email account, and also plugging in my new logitech Vision Pro. Nothing too dangerous there I would have thought.
    Any ideas about what is wrong and how to fix? I have reset P RAM, have repaired permissions. I hope to avoid a full reinstall of OS X. Apple support line has no record of startup disks not being visible occuring before.

    If you do not chose which system to boot to by holding the option key, will it automatically boot to OS X?
    Are there no options at all in the Startup Disk utility? If the issue is that you'd like to be able to chose which system to boot to, then I've found the software package rEFIt useful (http://refit.sourceforge.net/). Whenever you power on/restart your Mac, it displays a nice looking menu with little pictures representing the different boot options (it will have a picture for OS X, one for Windows, any other OSes you may install, and also will list any bootable removable media).
