i am your early adopter but i have not seen your sync at all.
no history, no addons ...

Hi lion_69,
Thank you for your question, I understand that when you have set up sync you are not seeing a sync between two browsers the account is connected to.
*Are there any error messages?

If you sign in at accounts.firefox.com or select Tools > Sync Now, does it show up?

Firefox does not re-initiate TCP session when receiving RST-ACK

Hello guys,
I’m writing to report a disparity between firefox and IE/Chrome when receiving RST-ACK.
To mitigate SYN flood attack, one of the countermeasures of anti-ddos appliance is to reset the first 3-way handshake and expect a re-initiated new tcp session from that client. If the real client, browser for example, automatically re-initiate a new session, users won’t feel too much differences except time of delay. If a browser does not automatically start a new session, users have to manually refresh the page within an interval, like 60 seconds.
We got reports from customers that firefox gave notifications of connection reset, as Graph 1 is. I tested with IE11, Chrome and firefox. It’s found that Chrome and IE will automatically started a new session, while firefox does not. For firefox users, they had to manually refresh the page.
Anti-ddos appliance (A10 TPS, Arbor & HUAWEI secospace) does provide another option to avoid seeing this notification. I understand there must be consideration and good reasons for firefox to design the browser this way. May I ask whether it is possible to adjust a little on firefox to let it automatically re-fresh the page when seeing a RST-ACK please? Guess it’s quite common for firefox users to see the notification when access URLs during DDos attacks, because for A10 TPS & Arbor, the default setting is to reset the first 3-way handshake.
Feel free to let me know if I missed something and got things wrong.
Appreciate it much for your time!

ops, seems packets are not allowed to be uploaded. anyone willing to check my question, kindly reach me at [email protected]

I am trying to use a website that requires that my computer have the latest version of Java, which I have updated and installed Java 7 Update 51 (64-bit), however Firefox does not recognize that I even have Java on my computer. My computer is 64-bit
When I run "Verify Java Version" it show nothing is installed... but it is, I know that for a fact because it shows in my "Control Panel/Programs/Programs and Features".
When I go back to the Java Download page, the following message is visible:
"We have detected you may be viewing this page in a 32-bit browser. If you use 32-bit and 64-bit browsers interchangeably, you will need to install both 32-bit and 64-bit Java in order to have the Java plug-in for both browsers."
My question is this:
Is there a way to change my Firefox browser from 32-bit to 64-bit.... because it appears that this is way Java is not functioning properly?

Firefox needs 32-bit plugins, so you'll need to install 32-bit Java for Firefox.
No, you can't change Firefox from 32-bt to 64-bit. There is a Nightly 64-bit version (alpha) of Firefox, but it is used only to test for regressions until development is resumed.

Firefox does not reopen tabs from previous session

Hi,
When I start firefox it does not reopen the tabs I had open from the previous time Firefox was open, despite following suggestions in other support articles mentioning a similar problem.
I have seen these other similar problems and solutions in the support forums but none of them describe exactly my problem and none of their solutions fix my problem:
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/800462#answer-154670
http://support.mozilla.com/bn-BD/questions/796107#answer-151748
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/786128#answer-139770
As suggested in the above articles I have gone to about:config and ensured that all of
browser.tabs.warnOnClose
browser.warnOnQuit
browser.warnOnRestart
browser.showQuitWarning
are set to true.
With all the above set to true I have also tried in
Options -> General -> Startup -> When Firefox Starts
varying the setting between
"Show my windows and tabs from last time"
and
"Show my homepage"
When I have this set to "Show my homepage" Firefox does ask me when I'm closing it down if I would like to save my tabs for next time. I select Save and Quit, yet when I reopen Firefox it opens only a single tab, my homepage.
When I have it set to "Show my windows and tabs from last time" Firefox does NOT ask me when I'm closing it down if I would like to save my tabs for next time. When I reopen Firefox it opens only a single tab, my homepage.

I ddin't have this problem ubtil today! If I closed Firefox with open tabs, then when I reopened Firefox, the tabs were there. It was like that first thing this morning but now, at 10:37, it warns me when I try to close it with multiple tabs open and when I reopen Firefox it reopens without the previous tabs! I have opted for "show my windows and tabs from previous session". Restore previous session is inoperative. Presumably, there's been another update which has caused this, as with the RSS feeds disappearing.

Firefox does not stop loading even after the site is loaded and continues as if it is still loading. I have clocked it to 15 minutes, why?

Details

Sorry, I should distinguish between slow loading and manual reloading.
I understood your problem to be that Firefox never finished loading the page, i.e., some part of the page was loading too slowly.
By reloading, I meant Ctrl+r (or the reload button), to manually reload the page. You can disregard any cached files and reload all content fresh from the server by adding the Shift key, i.e., Ctrl+Shift+r (helpful when specific sites do not load correctly).
If the page is automatically reloading itself over and over, that sounds like a completely different problem.

Firefox does not work with yahoo mail, why ???

I have had the problem of Yahoo! mail freezing (my computer freezing) with Firefox right after I boot up my computer and sign into my Yahoo! mail account. I have to either shut down my computer or use Control + Alt and press Delete to eventually bring up the Task Manager option. Then, once the choice for Task Manager comes up, I can click on cancel and Yahoo! mail and my computer have "un-frozen." I have followed all the recommendations for updating Firefox, clearing caches, checking if an Add-On is the problem, etc., as well as all the recommendations on Yahoo! help pages. Nothing has improved the situation to date. Firefox info says the problem is with Yahoo! Yahoo! says it is a browser problem. I just want the problem to be fixed.

Firefox does not remember history-why?

Hi guys! My firefox does not remember any history at all. Of course the privacy settings say: " remember history". Everything else (bookmarks and such work fine. I have done a "reset firefox" twice; no change. There is an article from someone with similar problems, but vital chunks of info are missing, so I can not reproduce what exactly the problem was and how it was solved. Any suggestions anyone?? Cheers Stefan
( should add: windows 7, latest firefox version...)

History can be removed or not recorded several ways;
* 1) Running Firefox in Private Mode (nothing is recorded)
* 2) Privacy settings (Type '''about:preferences#privacy'''<Enter> in the address bar.)
* 3) Many disk cleaners and anti-virus type programs can remove data from browsers. Open their settings and have them leave the browsers alone.
* 4) Mal-ware.

Firefox does not delete the .part file from my download folder after a successful download

First off, I'm on a MacBook Pro, running 10.6.4 and FF3.6.12
I've recently noticed that on occasion Firefox does not seem to delete the .part file associated with a successful download. The .part file (with a name consisting of a string of random characters followed by a .part extension) is visible in my Download folder stack, although not visible in the actual folder view. I cannot drag this file from the stack to the trash.
The real problem stems from the fact that this seems to create a directory error on my hard drive. Were I to run Disk Utility (which I will have to do... again!), it would return with an error saying something like "incorrect block length", requiring me to boot up from my install disk and repair the drive.
Is this maybe a bug? Is there something I might be doing wrong? Could an extension like AdBlock be messing up my downloads?

It seems that FireFox leaves those partial download files if for any reason they get interrupted. It's possible to resume the download through various uninteresting means, but if you're like me, it gets filled up with files that I intentionally did not complete downloading.
If you're terminal-savvy, you can set up a script that cleans up old .part files. Here's what I've set in my crontab:
0 * * * * /usr/bin/find ~/Downloads/*.part -atime +1 -exec rm {} \; &> /dev/null
It will delete any files in my downloads folder that are at least 1 day old.
To install this in your crontab, launch terminal and type "crontab -e"
This will bring up a text editor, probably vi. You'll see a bunch of ~'s down the left side. Type "i" to go into "insert" mode. The bottom left will say "-- INSERT --"
Copy and paste (or type) the line of code I have above.
Hit enter just to make sure you have a newline at the end.
Hit "Escape" to exit the insert mode.
Hit Shift-Z Shift-Z (that's Shift-Z twice) to exit the editor.
You should see a status message "crontab: installing new crontab"
If you type "crontab -l" you should see your newly installed crontab.
At the top of the next hour, any .part files that are more than a day old should be deleted, and this should continue forever.

Same thing happens when i click restart.
No difference when i run it in Safe mode. And it won't let me create a new profile either. Is there anyway else i can extract my bookmarks? This is driving me crazy!

Did the crash reporter send any crash reports? 
You can see the crash reports in this folder:
"C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Crash Reports"
See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Breakpad
See also [[Firefox crashes when you open it]]
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems. 
See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]] 
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" 
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files) 
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox 
If that still causes the same problem then do a clean reinstall and remove the Firefox program folder.
* Download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
* Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
* Don't remove personal data when uninstalling.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

I do not know what happened, all of a sudden Firefox does not want to work anymore. Had been conected to audible. Retried about 4 times.... no luck had to force quit every time. The three Firefox app. into garbage, emptied garbage and redownloaded new version from Firefox. Reinstalled but same thing happened again... no connection.

Please let me know.
(Note: I have also mentioned this on the automatic response to the malfunctioning).

Hey.
I think it might be the problem with one of your plugins.
Try to uninstall the webbrowser AND remove the storage from Firefox in your user-account (Linux: /home/username/.mozilla). You can check the list of installed Add-Ons in Firefox under "Extras => Add-ons" or by pressing Shift + Strg + A (Linux).

When I click to enlarge an image in eBay, Firefox does not respond.

I open up Firefox and go to the eBay website. I click on an item to view the listing. I then click on the image, or the 'Enlarge' icon to view a larger version of the image. The problem is that Firefox does not respond. It comes up with "javascript;" in the little dialogue box that pops up in the bottom left corner.
When I use Internet Explorer, I don't have the problem. Could anyone suggest what is wrong?

Make sure that you do not block JavaScript
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/JavaScript
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Firefox does not save my tabs or sessions when I shut down my computer

To be more clear:
Yes, I have set my options to "show windows and tabs from last time".
No, I did not check "clear memory on shut down" or "start private session"
Also, it saves my tabs when I restart the browser, but when I shut down my computer and start up again, Firefox does not show my tabs from last time. The same thing happens with sites I've logged onto before; it logs me out after I shut down my computer.

Did you check the "Clear Recent History" settings to be sure cthat you do not clear the Browser history and the cookies?
