Firefox asks every time for personal certificate. it wont remember choice.

I have 2 personal certificates for accessing several secure sites.
If I check to remember choice, Firefox remembers choosen certificate and works until I close Firefox completely.
When I open Firefox it chooses wrong certificate (it always chooses first certificate on list).
If I choose ask every time and I select certificate and check "remember choice" it remembers until I restart Firefox. Aftert restarting it asks again( this site has requested that you identify yourself with a certificate).
I have reset firefox and imported certificates, and still same happens. It happens on several versions of firefox and on my all computers.
How to remember which certificate to choose on one specific web page?
Thank you

In case you use "Clear history when Firefox closes" or otherwise clear history:
*do not clear the Site Preferences
*Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history": [X] "Clear history when Firefox closes" > Settings

I tried to uninstall firefox and to install again on linux mint.Now firefox ask every time for a profile,i never make a profile before and this is a serious problem to me.Firefox can't open and work like before the uninstall

Hi,i am running linux mint.I tried to change the firefox folder from the file system with a new firefox folder cause i had a problem with one extension(download statusbar).So,after that i have problem,firefox ask me about profile and after some tests about it from me,firefox always says"this profile its allready in use,make a new profile or rename one profile".I don't know anything about profiles,first time i see that i can make a profile it's now.

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you about that, maybe after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox.

I specified downloads should always open automatically in Acrobat, and I want to change that now & have firefox ask every time again.

Every time I downloaded a file, Firefox asked me what to do with it: open, save to desktop, etc. There was also a check box for "do this automatically from now on." I checked that box, so now Firefox is automatically opening in Acrobat as I specified. But now I've changed my mind and want Firefox to ask me what to do with each download again. How can I change that preference?

[http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing+file+types]

With Firefox 11, when I save a file (image, etc.) then go to the Downloads manager and try to "Open Containing Folder", Firefox crashes every time for every file type.

Note title.

May be it is something to do with whatever your security software is. Try disabling security scanning of downloads, or tuning off the security software entirely. Remember to turn it on afterwards and use something safe as a download. Try for instance saving the avatar adjacent to these posts.
* see [[Firefox crashes when trying to download a file]]
You should also as a matter of course try firefox in [[safe mode]]
* no need to make changes in the check box options window, just click on cntinue
* use only the default theme, whilst in safe mode aslo disable all plugins

File sharing lion and xtreamer doesn't work - asks every time for id

since I updated to lion, i can not share my files via smb and i have a xtreamer.
now xtreamer asks for id and password.
when go to connect with server and connect with server then i see on my tv the screen for loggin in. before lion i connected as guest, BUT I didn't HAVE TO put any details as id and pw?
can anybodey help me to solve this annoying problem?
greetings,
ernest.

Serviio will do the trick. Also very easy to do. Download and install serviio console. In Serviio console select Library tab. Add path then choose the folder from your computer that you want to share. I checked all the items on the right side of the folder box. Save!
On your Xtreamer, go to media library then UPnP (make sure that UPnP is "on". Settings, Application, UPnP Media Server ON). Wait awhile then Serviio (your computer name) will appear. Select your computer then Video then Folders. That's it! The contents of your shared folder in your computer can now be streamed. Enjoy!

I accidentally checked the box to make firefox stop asking if I want to save my tabs for next time. How do I get it back to asking every time?

I don't want Firefox to automatically remember my tabs every time it restarts; I want it to ask every time.

# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
# Locate the preference '''browser.tabs.warnOnClose''', if its value is set to '''false''', double-click on it to change its value to '''true'''
# Repeat this for these 2 preferences '''browser.warnOnQuit''' and '''browser.warnOnRestart'''

No, not thru web access; it is via the Outlook provided thru Microsoft Office.

How can I get adobe flash player to run without asking every time?

Every time I go to a site that needs adobe flash player it asks if its ok to let it run. How do I make it run without asking every time?

A possible cause is that you do not have the latest version of the Shockwave Flash player (16.0.0.305).
You can check that in "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Plugins" ("Ask to Activate" or "Always Activate").
You can find the latest Flash player versions for Firefox on this page:

Saving a Pages document: when I first save a pages document it saves and I don't know where it goes or what its name is. I want to be asked every time I save a pages document what to name it and where to save it. How do I set this preference?

I'll guess that you've used a page layout document & pasting created a text box. You can add more pages & create linked text boxes, but I think you'd be better of using a word processing document. In word processing documents there is a basic text layer & additional pages will be created as needed to fit the text. Take a look at the toolbar of your document. If it says "sections" for the +page icon it's a word processing document, if it says "pages" it's a page layout document.

What did the installation of CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6 changed in the system because after that Firefox crashes every time when opened?

My system worked normally but after I installation CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6 Firefox crashes every time I try to open it. I've tried disabling plugins and add-ons but with no success. Reinstallation of Firefox hasn't helped. But as I this has happened to me on a couple of other computers too, I've been able pin point the source of problem to installation of CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6 (and earlier versions, too).
Firefox can be opened without problems in safe mode or in Windows XP SP3 compatiblity mode. Does Firefox use some different system components then?
I am using 32-bit Windows7 and latest version of Firefox.

It is possible that the CorelDRAW program installed extra fonts on your computer and that Firefox is having a problem with one or more of them.
You can use one of these to start Firefox in <u>Safe mode</u>:
*On Windows, hold down the Shift key while starting Firefox with a double-click on the Firefox desktop shortcut
*On Mac, hold down the Options key while starting Firefox

You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.<br />

Firefox crashes every time at the moment I enable flash plugin. I've uninstalled and installed a plugin again with no positive result. What should be done?

Firefox crashes every time when I enable a flash plugin. It started today after an automatic attempt of updating shockwave. I've uninstalled flash and installed it again. Still the same story. There are no previous version of flash available on adobe site. What should be done?

I have Firefox 3.6.8 and newest version of Flash. I've followed all recommendations made by Firefox support, changing plug in container settings, changing hang time, nothing helps. I'm forced to disable Adobe Flash or Firefox crashes whenever the Flash plug-in is needed. There are numerous reports of this problem throughout the Firefox troubleshoot help pages. No one seems to have a good answer to fix this. I now keep Flash disabled and use it only when going to a web page that needs it. If I find myself on such a page, I can go into tools, enable flash and do a reload. For some reason, this works. The reload will let Flash do its thing and Firefox won't have an APPCRASH. Once I leave that page, however, I must disable Flash again or I'll experience a crash the next time Flash is called upon. I really like FF but have downloaded Chrome and am now playing with it to see if I like it enough to use it as my primary browser. It's a shame that FF can't come up with a fix as hundreds have the same complaint.

FF 18.0.1 Hotmail Contacts and Cookies: Contacts don't load with "Ask Every Time" and "Allow Cookie". Loads fine with "Keep until they expire."

Everything was working fine under Win8Pro Release Preview and FF (17?)...
Did full Win7Pro SP1 x64 install.
Installed FF 18.0.1, no add-ons; all defaults except turned on "do not track" and changed cookie handling as described:
Logging in to my Hotmail/Outlook.com account (MS upgraded me to Outlook.com in the middle of my troubleshooting) I can access my Hotmail People (Contacts) without difficulty.
I change FF Options -> Privacy -> "Keep cookies until" from "they expire" to "ask every time."
When I go to "Hotmail People", I click on "Allow" for every instance I'm asked to set or modify a cookie.
The content of the "People" page (the contacts themselves) never loads. I just get the "please wait" circling-dots.
I return to the Hotmail "Mail" page (which still works fine, except when addressing a message).
I change FF Options -> Privacy -> "Keep cookies until" from "ask every time" to "they expire."
When I go (back) to Hotmail People, the contacts load fine.
Shouldn't the two scenarios be the same? I prefer to manually handle cookie handling, so this feature is important to me.
Thanks!
PS: With the exception of addressing in Mail; Mail, Calendar and SkyDrive all seem to work fine regardless of which cookie setting is used.

Additional information: I had SSL-only enabled in Hotmail, and SSL-only is required by Outlook.com.
I've done four captures using Fiddler v2.4.2.6.
Each capture starts at the Outlook.com Inbox, then the switch to the "People" page.
1) Captured with cookies set "Until They Expire" (green)
2) Captured with cookies set "Ask Me Every Time" and "Allow" (red)
3) Same as (1)
4) Same as (2)
I don't know Fiddler or HTML well enough to troubleshoot on my own.
If someone would like this file for troubleshooting, please let me know.
Thanks.
