Firefox doesn't allow me to email a webpage by right-clicking anymore - Why?

I used to be able to right-click on a webpage, and email the page. Then, something changed, and when I right-clicked, that option was not immediately available. Instead, I had to right-click, hover over a main category that then offered me two options, once of which was emailing the webpage through Yahoo. When I did that, the email would fill with the link, but a lot of junk about Yahoo, too.
Now, when I right-click just two weeks later, option is completely gone. So, now, I cannot email a webpage just be right-clicking. I have to copy the link, open an email, and paste the link. What happened, and can I get back?

hello cera78, mozilla does clean up its user interface from time to time. user interface studies have shown that this context menu entry is only used by <1% of the users.
if you've liked the functionality you could use an addon to recover it: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/send-link-in-context-menu/

  • My auto translate feature is not working on firefox v5. When I highlight a few words and right click, the option is'nt there to translate. Why?

    Ok so my auto translate feature does not seem to be working. When trying to translate text on twitter or any page I highlight the text, right click and the option to auto translate has gone. I am running firefox v5 on vista. Can anyone help me out.
    thanks

    Sorry that my guess about what you are using was wrong. How about telling us exactly what you installed to provide that '''auto translate''' feature in Firefox?
    If you don't know, give us a list of the extensions that you ''do'' have installed so that we don't have to wildly guess or so we can do an '''''educated guess''''' as to which one isn't working.
    Help > Troubleshooting Information = use the '''Copy all to clipboard''' button, then paste into a text editor program. Then delete all but the list of '''Extensions''' and copy'n'paste that to the Reply box here.

  • Firefox will not open using my icon. i have to right click than click open. how can i fix this?

    my desk top icon for firefox will not start firefox when i click on it. i now have to right click and than click open.

    Try to create a new desktop shortcut for the Firefox program by going to the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\) and use the right-click context menu (Send to > Desktop) on the Firefox.exe file.

  • Cannot Open eMail Requiring Double or Right Click

    I've come across a caveat when trying to open some web based email that requires double or right click to open. Double tapping the message on the iPod Touch only enlarges or reduces the font size. I don't believe there is a right click function.
    Has anyone else encountered this and found a way to get around it?

    I wouldn't expect 3.0 to have any different interface functionality than the current version. Not sure what app you are trying to get e-mail from, but 99% of web based products only require a single click to open and read e-mail.
    Does this app have a pop or imap server you can connect to? At least you could use your regular mail app on your touch to access it.

  • During asynchronous method call, Firefox doesn't allow to navigate elsewhere

    Hi,
    I am using Jdeveloper 11.1.1.5.0 and my application is based on ADF and Webcenter Portal.
    Here is the scenario: My application has a home page which contains different regions. The page loads all the regions instead of one which is running with separate thread and taking long time. Now during the execution of long running task, if user wants to navigate to another page by clicking on a command link or goLink then it works on google chrome and IE but doesn't work with Firefox. In case of firefox once it seems to redirecting to desired url for a while but then it redirects back to same page. Surprisingly, It works perfectly once the execution of long running task is finished. So it seems problem with firefox's handling of asynchronous requests. I tried FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().redirect(url) and setting the URL as destination for goLink to navigate. Below is the code for goLink and commandLink:
    <af:goLink id="pt_g22" text="#{node.title}" destination="#{contextroot}/faces/test.jsp" styleClass="#{node.selected ? 'ln_active' : ''}"/>
    <af:commandLink id="pt_c21" text="#{node.title}" action="pprnav" clientComponent="#{node.attributes['Target'] == '_popup' ? true : false}" styleClass="#{node.selected ? 'ln_active' : ''}" actionListener="#{MyBean.navigateToHere}" partialSubmit="true">
    in commandLink's actionListener method i am just having : FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().redirect(url)
    Also, if i use navigationContext.processAction and action="pprnav" with commandLink then it works in FF as well but i want full page redirection instead of PPR
    Any help or suggestion is appreciated.
    Many Thanks,
    Jeetu

    Jose, your fix to problem 1 allows all access from the outside, assuming you applied the extended list to the outside interface.  Try to be more restrictive than an '...ip any any' rule for outside_in connections.  For instance, this is what I have for incoming VOIP (access list and nat rules):
    access list rule:
    access-list outside_access_in extended permit udp any object server range 9000 9049 log errors
    nat rule:
    nat (inside,outside) source static server interface service voip-range voip-range
    - 'server' is a network object *
    - 'voip-range' is a service group range
    I'd assume you can do something similar here in combination with my earlier comment:
    access-list incoming extended permit tcp any any eq 5900
    Can you explain your forwarding methodology a little more?  I'm by no means an expert on forwarding, but the way I read what you're trying to do is that you have an inbound VNC request coming in on 5900 and you want the firewall to figure out which host the request should go to.  Or is it vice-versa, the inbound VNC request can be on port 6001-6004 ?

  • Facebook Zuma Blitz. The NEW Firefox doesn't allow gameplay

    Made sure everything is allowed for the game to load. It worked BEFORE I upgraded to the Firefox 8.0. Now it doesn't load completely for game play.

    You can uninstall (remove) the Java Console extensions and disable the Java Quick Starter extension, you do not need them to run Java applets.

  • Autofill web forms doesn't allow choice of email address

    Using a new MacBook Pro with Lion installed.  I have multiple email addresses and want to use a particular one when filling out personal data on a web form.  Autofill doesn't seem to allow that option.  Is there a fix for this?

    Well that is nice but before all I only had to enter in the first letter and I get a list starting with the first letter and usually the person I need is right there now I have to keep typing? This is not a upgrade in my opinion. IS there an option to just list starting with the first letter? IF not there should be. Is there a way to go back to the last version?
    There is an old saying in engineering, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it."
    I get a little of programers over working a product that works great all ready don't screw with the interface unless you make it a choice for the user. Adobe does this all the time I have to relearn the interface each time a programing has a bright idea.

  • My Firefox doesn't allow me to choose to save passwords

    When I go into the "privacy" part of "Preferences", the check box and script which allows me to choose to save passwords is only in faint script and so is not functional. I am up to date with software downloads, at 33.02 and am using an Apple Mac of 2007 vintage.

    hello nickfork, firefox won't save your passwords when you've set it up to run in permanent private browsing mode ("never remember history" in the options > privacy panel).

    Hello sue. This sounds like some fishy Google move to get you in their services. Are you certain it's Firefox and not Google?
    In any case, try checking Tools > Options > Applications and change the "mailto" service for "ask always" or something like that. Maybe that's your problem?
    Hope this helps.

  • Can't click on certain options like log-out, that are usually located at the top of a website. They are frozen, and firefox doesn't allow me to click on them. It works fine with other browsers.

    For example, if when I use hotmail, I cannot click on the options that appear in the upper portion of the page. Example, "menu" "help" "log-out". Same thing happens to facebook, so i can't see my notifications, or log out. When i try to click on them, nothing happens. I tried using facebook and hotmail with other browsers, and it works fine. I don't understand why i can't click on certain things with firefox. I haven't recently made any changes to firefox, and it is the lastest version. I also tried uninstalling, and installing again, but it didn't fix the problem.
    '''If I run firefox in safe mode, with all the add-ons turned of there are no problems. '''

    laderamacguy took a look at it and added a black shape over the tab. he suggested i use a different template next time, such as the black template.

  • I'm using Firefox Ver 3.6.10 with updated Java console ver 6.0.22. After the updating, firefox doesn't allow pop up window anymore. Please advise.

    I also face this problem in previous Firefox version but after updated to newer release, the problem disappeared until new Java console updates again.
    The Pop up does not come out at all.
    I have tried restart Firefox but when restarting, a message pop up and tell me that another Firefox is running and after I check into my Task Manager, the Task Manager shows that there is another Firefox is still running.

  • Firefox is not allow my yahoo email account to work property (can't send attachements or see formating options). How do I fix this. (This does not occur w/EI.)

    I click on the "attachment" button and it doesn't go to my files to get the attachment -- doesn't do anything.
    Formatting -- bold, I, etc. buttons just show up blank/black.
    This doesn't happen w/my yahoo mail if i go through EI.

    Are there any dialog boxes popping up behind your Yahoo screen?
    I have intermittent problems attaching files in Yahoo mail and this is usually the reason.  I'm also using an iMac (10.7.3) and this is likely the problem.
    It is generally a Yahoo issue rather than a Mac problem.

  • When emailing a webpage from Safari using Mail, why is the page no longer rendered correctly?

    This never used to happen
    Previously (before Yosemite) when I was looking at a web page I wanted to share, I clicked on the email icon in Safari and a new Mail page opened with the web page I was looking at perfectly rendered.  I added an address and emailed that page to the person I wanted to share with.
    Currently, when I try to do the same thing, the mail message that gets copied over to Mail is a terrible, useless distortion of the original web page.
    Anyone know what's going on here?  Have you experienced this?  Can I fix it?
