Firefox 22 update cleared my Download Manager Tweak history

Apparently, I made the mistake of updating Firefox 18 to Firefox 22, and I use the Download Manager Tweak add-on so I can easily see my list of recent downloads, etc.etc. Updating to Firefox 22 cleared the history of the Download Manager Tweak. While the history of all downloads (even ones I cleared from the Tweak window) is there in the History >Show All History >Downloads, it didn't keep the list I had in the add-on.
These 2 lists are different. I wanted to keep the one in the add-on.
Running Windows XP, btw.

The developer obviously did not change the Mozilla Add-ons page; it says '''''"Works with Firefox 3.0 and later"''''' under Version Information.
Per the page on http://dmextension.mozdev.org/ , you will need to contact the developer in the forum at http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=1086555 to inquire about the Firefox version compatibility and retrieving/saving/protecting your history for the add-on if that is possible.

Firefox 35 update disabled Free Download Manager plugin 1.6.0.8

This is a must have for me. Any solutions other than using IE?

Thank you Tyler. I never think of the easy stuff. :)

After the updating firefox 5.0 the internet download manager not working (not compatible) can you explan why?

After the updating fire fox 5.0 the internet download manager not working (not compatible) can you explain why?

Add-on developers need to keep up with new versions of Firefox as they are released and update their product. Have you checked with IDM to see if they have an update for you to install? Or ask them when they are going to have an update ready for 5.0.
Another thing you could do is to install FlashGot.

The developer of Flashgot, Giorgio Maone, keeps his extensions compatible with versions of Firefox that are still in development - future release versions.

Is Firefox 7 compatible with Free Download Manager?

With Firefox 6 the plug-in Free Download Manager would not work, so I re-installed an older version (Firefox 4). Now that Firefox 7 is launched, it might be a good idea to install this latest version. But I definitely want Free Download Manager as a plug-in. Can you tell me if this is supported by version 7?

It looks like the upcoming version 3.8 will -> http://freedownloadmanager.org/board/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=15602

Firefox Software Update starts - indicates downloading and "connecting to server" - but never finishes.

I am runnng Max OS X 10.7.1

If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the disk image (dmg) file to the desktop
* Firefox 7.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
* Install the new version that you have downloaded
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

I can't open attachments since I accidently cleared my download and browsing history

I can't open attachments in my email. Hotmail. Using Firefox browser. I just want to clear recent history for cache but cleared all but the two bottom ones, offline website, and site preferences. I was trying to fix a problem that I could not access my contact list of my hotmail account. I am using IE now and can get to my contacts and open attachments in that. But want to fix my Firefox

I understand that you cannot open attachments.

Update of windows 8.1 fails CAN I DOWNLOAD IT USING ANY DOWNLOAD MANAGER

i have tried instaling windows 8.1 update from store . its of 3.64gb , and when internet connnection lost sometimes it again starts from 0% (beginning) i have lost 10-12 gb due to this . CAN I DOWNLOAD THIS UPDATE FROM ANY DOWNLOAD MANAGER OR FROM ANOTHER
. PLEASE HELPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!

Hi,
I am afraid there is no another way to update to Windows 8.1 apart from the Windows Store.
However, If the installation is interrupted for any reason, you can restart the update from where you left off by going back to the Store and downloading the update again.
For more information about updating Windows 8 to Windows 8.1, please see:

Does firefox 5 support internet download manager

latest versions of Firefox does not support internet download manager . does they?

Internet Download Manager v6.07 support Firefox 4, 5 & 6.
http://www.internetdownloadmanager.com/

I can no longer download files. The download manager comes up and indicates file is downloading, but it isn't.

I can't download any files. The download window appears and indicates file is downloading, but it doesn't. I had to open IE to download latest version of Firefox. I have reset all download values to default. I have changed the location of file downloads and I've cleared the download manager.

You can find the original download location if you paste the code posted in this link in the Code field in the Error Console and click the Evaluate button.
*Firefox/Tools > Web Development > Error Console
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/User:Dickvl/JavaScript_Error_Console#Download_Manager
That will give a pop-up with data about the currently selected file in the Download Manager window. 
That same data appears as a tooltip if you hover the icon at the left side of an entry in the Download Manager.
If the files are missing in that location then there must be some software running that deleted the files.
Did you disable the virus check initiated by Firefox as well?

Ff 26 just installed an update and now downloads do not appear in the download window.

I've tried several solutions recommended to people who had this problem in prior versions but none of them work. It does not matter whether I display downloads in a separate window or sidebar. The downloads are actually happening in the background (when I open windows explorer the file is listed in the folder) and the download window is there, but nothing about the file or its status appears in the window.
I use Download Manager Tweak 0.9.8 open in a sidebar but the problem persists when I have downloads open in a separate window.

I was using the add-on Download Manager Tweak 0.9.8 rather than the native FF download manager and just discovered that Tweak will not work with FF 26. The Tweak download window stays blank even if files are downloading. When I downloaded and re-installed FF 25.0.1 my downloads showed up in my download window again as they always did before the upgrade to FF 26.
Can the Mozilla FF team track down what caused this problem and correct it so that Tweak will work again or at least contact the provider of Tweak to try to find a fix?

If I updated my desktop Firefox from version 5 to 6, Does my IDM (Internet Download Manager v.6.07) Plug-in updates automtically or do I have to install a newer version of IDM?

I am worried if my IDM application will not be integrated with the updated version of Firefox 5; Firefox 6.
My question is: Do I have to install a newer version of IDM (Internet Download Manager v.6.07) if I have updated my Firefox?

In Photoshop, if you choose Help - About Plug-in... - Camera Raw, does it say 8.6?
Seems to me there was some hiccup they found in the update process, which prompted this:
Camera Raw updates cannot be applied
I honestly don't know if the problem could apply to 8.6 as well, which is why I asked you to check to make very sure you really got it.

Download manager doesn't have option to clear

Since update to 19 (this morning), the "clear list" button on the Download Manager is greyed out and doesn't work. Also under Privacy settings, I selected "Use custom settings for history" and cannot check button to "clear history when Firefox closes." Running on Windows 7.

Can you remove a selected item in the download manager with Delete or Shift+Delete?
Try to delete the downloads.sqlite file in the Firefox profile folder
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_save_or_download_files
You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder
Try to create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Creating a profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from an existing profile to the new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

I'm trying to update to firefox 6.0, but the download stops at 79%. How can I fix this? It occurs even after restarting my Mac.

I've been using firefox with my Mac book. Yedsterday, I got a message to update from version 3.6 to 6.0 in 3 steps. Step 1 was to download version 6.0. It appeared on the list of downloads as Firefox 6.0 dmg. However Step 1 , which was to open the download, stopped at 79% of the download version. So I have not been able to update to version 6.0.

I want to make sure you're using the auto-update system, because that's the safest most reliable way to go, and it shouldn't appear in the download manager, so I lets make sure you're doing it right. 
This is a screencast I made a couple of years ago. It refers to 3.5 and 3.6, but the steps are still the same: http://ilias.ca/screencasts/ISUHD45.mov
If that doesn't work, then maybe your Snow Leopard account doesn't have permission to update applications?

Firefox 5.0.1 would cause my Free Download Manager to be disabled because it is not compatibl with the new version. What ones are compatible and free?

I have received a pop-up advisory from Firefox several times, saying that my Free Download Manager is not compatible with the recommended 5.0.1 upgrade and wold have to be disabled until the compatibility problem was corrected.
(I think that I did download it, and that was when I got the first warning. I visited my download m manager shortly afterward, and all my download history had disappeared. I think that I then reversed the upgrade.)
Since then, my emails will load only in Basic HTML, which I have several problems with. I don't know if that is a Google or a Firefox problem.
So, my initial problem is that I need a reliable and easy to use free downloader before I can upgrade and get my Standard HTML back.
What free Download Managers are compatible with Firefox 5.0.1?
While we're at it, is 5.0.1 Beta? And what is Beta?

Solution: (Free Download Manager)
Go here: http://codecpack.co/download/Free_Download_Manager.html and download Free Download Manager 3.8.1067 Beta 3, it works perfectly with Firefox 5.0.1
Solution: (to Google mail aka Gmail)
I have had this problem for a while since I did a previous Firefox update, where I had to force Gmail to load in Basic HTML else it's next to impossible to use it. The solution is this: simply update your Java, and Gmail will work without a problem using Standard HTML. To update your Java go here: http://www.java.com/en/ and select "Free Java Download".
And beta normally, universally, means "the not quite there yet version of the version we're aiming for" NORMALLY used during production and testing of a type of software.

I hate it when updates break things instead of fixing them. Can't Mozilla leave well enough alone? At the very least, each new release should be tested so it works with ALL PREVIOUS extensions!
Wait till you "update" to firefox 4 and EVERYthing breaks, including the buttons that come with it. There is no arrow next to the dropdown button, right clicking the tab bar doesn't bring up the correct menu, but one as though it were the menu bar (which is missing) and the information bar is missing. True, it's fast, but you'll spend weeks getting it to work properly.
