Firefox loses the saved users and history after awhile!

When I first start Firefox all is fine, the history is there and working, all the saved user/pass is there but after awhile it's like firefox loses it's memory and I need to restart the browser to get it all up and running again. Is it a config I need to do in about:config or what?
This didn't happen when I was using Windows 7 and FF, but now under Ubuntu 10.04 it happens all the day.
== This happened ==
A few times a week
== Ubuntu went to 10.04 LTS!

Even in safe mode it loses it's memory, but it comes back real fast.
Got a terminal up and running and it tells me this:
<code>
(firefox-bin:2691): Gdk-WARNING **: XID collision, trouble ahead
</code>
Can't find anything out on google about this, but I'm not alone with having this problem with Ubuntu and Firefox in Sweden.
Therefore, is it Firefox it self or is it in Ubuntu?

  • Hii all, I just bought an used iphone 5c from an user and only after a few weeks realised that it got activation locked. He might be unaware of that. Is it possible to get back to him and unlock the device for me as i have not contacts with him presently.

    Well first you need to sync your iPhone 4 with your Mac/PC so that it will transfer all your music, apps, podcasts, etc. Then sync your iPod Touch and the media you selected during the sync should be there on your iPhone. If you have difficulty in transferring media from iPhone to your computer, try softwares like TransCopy. They will help in transferring data from your iphone to your computer. Dont forget to check that all the transferred data is in the iTunes media folder so that the iTunes can locate the files. Link to Transcopy software :

    When a pop up window comes up it is - search bookmarks and history window! I cannot log into my bank as login button should open new window to log in but I get the search page. I cannot see larger images as again I get the search bookmarks and history page etc. Happens on all options that should open new page. I am so frustrated, this has been happening since Firefox updated itself 2 days ago to Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-GB; rv:1.9.2.8) Gecko/20100722 Firefox/3.6.8 ( .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET4.0C) was fine before that. using windows vista. Can you please advise what I should do? Also can you go back to previous version? Error console eg
    Warning: Error in parsing value for 'cursor'. Declaration dropped.

    Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode?

  • Firefox shows the saved password to all... i want a privacy for this saved password..

    Firefox shows the saved password to all... i want a privacy for this saved password..
    the master password what they r giving is not at all useful... it is not used for the saved password..
    Please give a master password to get access for the saved password...
    If any body others comes and sees the saved password in the system they can easily see the saved password....
    == Operating system ==
    XP

    If you use a Master Password then your passwords can only be accessed after you have supplied that MP during a session.
    You will be prompted to enter the MP the first time it is needed in a session.
    You can logout from the Software Security Device (e.g. click Cancel in the "Show Passwords" dialog) to force re-entering the MP once again.

  • With XP, with three different user accounts, is it possible to download Firefox 4 to one user and retain Firefox 3 on another, for a learning period?

    We are running XP, and have 3 different user accounts on one desktop. We are very excited by the Firefox4 features, but one user has much less comfort with changes, and doesn't want to lose browsing comfort in 3 before he has a chance to get used to using 4. May take a while....
    Is there any way to download Firefox 4, perhaps into a new location. Or a new user account. And use this as a 'teaching tool' while still retaining 3?
    Or can we upgrade to 4, redownload a version of 3, and import that user's previous bookmarks to the new download of 3, until we get him comfortable.
    The answer is probably no. But if there is a creative way to do this, without another computer available, that would be great. If not, we upgrade and deal with the frustration and whining here.... 4 is too good to pass up.
    Ideas?
    Linda

    When you install Firefox 4, choose the custom installation option and change the location where Firefox is installed. You will then have 2 versions of Firefox installed.
    As you have different user accounts, each user will have their own Firefox profile (location where bookmarks, passwords, etc are stored). You should not switch between different versions of Firefox with the same user profile. For those that want to use Firefox 4, just make sure you use a Firefox shortcut that opens Firefox 4, likewise for the person who wants to stay with Firefox 3, just keep their original Firefox shortcut and it should open the old version.

  • Cannot install request for administrator passwords, I am the only user and hence administrator

  • SMB on Server 10.5.6: Vista user needs to enter user and pass after restart

    Hello,
    We have a Vista user running in XP mode connected to SMB on OS X Server 10.5.6. After every log out or restart windows ask the user to enter the user and password. We have checked the remember user and password box but the windows can't remember the user and pass...
    What could we do?

    Is your server bound to AD, and your PC clients as well (probably) ?
    First, stop SMB.
    Then, backup /etc/smb.conf
    Then edit it (use nano or vi or emacs via the Terminal. If you must use the GUI then use TextWrangler.
    Make sure the file permissions are preserved.
    under the [global] section of /etc/smb.conf, make the following modifications (add the entry if it's not there):
    security = ads
    windbind separator = +
    ; auth methods = guest opendirectory
    ie: comment out "auth methods" via the ";"
    Start smb and compare. Anytime you make a change in the GUI tools, verify your edits are preserved.
