* Make sure that you not run Firefox in [[Private Browsing]] mode
* In Private Browsing mode some menu items are disabled (grayed) and features like visited links are disabled and not showing
* You are in Private Browsing mode if you see "Tools > Stop Private Browsing", possibly grayed
See [[Private Browsing]] and http://kb.mozillazine.org/Issues_related_to_Private_Browsing

    hello, there's a general regression in firefox 27 that won't allow files to download directly into a root drive. please try to create a subfolder (like ''E:\Downloads'') and set this as default location for downloads...

  • Hi, my firefox wont load websites but other browsers like internet explorer , chrome can . This problem occurs when i use my company's router ?

    my company have two internet connection ; 1 is dsl connection , firefox working fine on it ; 2 is my company's own cisco 2911 cisco router with internet connection , firefox wont loading pages except just the homepage of google.com and that's it , and the problem is that whole company is using company's internet connection which means that firefox is death for all of us.
    Reseting firefox works but just for one day and after that it stuck again. also tried other solutions like malware removal , re installing firefox etc but not worked
    Thanks for any kind of solution

    thanks alot for your quick reply fredmcd
    i have searched alot on the internet and got the solution , it was a thread known as "l.yimg.com". every time i open a website ,it stucks in "transferring data from l.yimg.com" , so what i did is;
    1) End the process "random.exe" from task manager
    2) Delete all the history and cookies of the infected browser.
    3) Opened Registry Editor and delete these malicious entries:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\ L.yimg.com
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\L.yimg.com \DisplayName L.yimg.com
    HKEY_USER\.default\environment\temp
    HKEY_USER\s-1-5-18\environment\temp
    HKEY_USER\ s-1-5-19\environment\temp and so on
    4) Search those malicious files on your hard disk and completely delete all of its components.
    %AllUsersProfile%\{random}
    %AllUsersProfile%\Application Data\.dll
    it really worked for me , if anyone have the same problem then try it , hopefully it will work for you too.

  • Firefox wont start "XPCOM" message pops up, need my user and passwords!!??

    My window 7 wasn't starting up properly so I did a system restore and now firefox wont start a message pops up stating "XPCOM" and I googled it and everything is telling to reinstall Firefox. I don't wont to reinstall it just yet because I need my passwords and username back. I cant find a solution on the forums either, or if there is I haven't found it or I simply didn't understood the solution itself. Please get back to me asap
    thank you!

    This usually happens because of a failed Firefox update that left you with a mixture of old and updated files in the Firefox program folder.
    Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
    *Download the full Firefox installer and save the file to the desktop<br>https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
    If possible uninstall your current Firefox version to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
    *Do NOT remove "personal data" when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords including data in profiles created by other Firefox versions.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    *(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
    *(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
    *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.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
    Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure NOT to remove personal data when you uninstall Firefox as that will remove all Firefox profile folders and you lose your personal data.
    If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

  • Trying to download Covenant Eyes & firefox wont let it happen. Please help.

    A year ago we downloaded the program from covenanteyes.com using Vista and Firefox. All went well for months.
    Since then, our laptop crashed (unrelated reason). All lost.
    Started fresh with Windows 7. We are wanting to install Covenant Eyes on new system. Firefox wont let it download. Tried & tried. Covenant Eyes TS says they have seen a lot of this lately & that Firefox is looking at it as spam & blocking it without notice to customer.
    My question... Is there any way to inform Firefox so they can stop this & see it as a legit program? We thank you.

    Could you describe where the process breaks down? After you sign up, you click a download button, and then... Firefox never displays the dialog to Save or Cancel? Or Firefox appears to be downloading it, but when you go to access the file, it isn't there?
    Can you download the program using Internet Explorer? It appears to be a single download that works on all your browsers, so if the solution isn't obvious, you might try that.

  • Firefox wont complete update insufficient privilages

    Firefox wont update says I don't have required privileges.
    I am administrator

    If you have 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 DMG file to the desktop
    * Firefox 5.0.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 [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

    Hi,
    If it was installed as a Firefox extension you can try to '''Remove''' it in Firefox '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Add-ons''' > '''Extensions'''.

    On the other hand, if it was installed as a Windows application or Internet Explorer application, you may have to uninstall it via the Windows OS Control Panel, or via the browsers concerned. The [http://answers.microsoft.com/ Windows support] would be helpful.

  • I get the firefox pop up "do you want to remember this password", but it does not save it. There is no "yes" option on the pop up. How can I get Firefox to save my passwords?

    I want Firefox to save my passwords as it has in the past, but now it is not doing so. I am using version 6.0.2, I see the pop up asking to remember the password, but firefox does not save the passwords. What can I do to correct this so FF starts saving my passwords?

    Firefox 4 and later versions place a key icon on the location bar that allows to (re)open the dialog to save the password at any time.<br />
    That pop-up dialog has a button labeled with "Remember Password".<br />
    If you click the arrow next to that button then you see the other choices ("Never Remember Password for this site", "Not Now").<br />

    My firefox wont load any page. Says it cant find the server of any of them. I can view the same pages in safari. I just updated to 3.6.7 and now having this problem. What is happening?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Today ==
    == User Agent ==
    Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US) AppleWebKit/533.16 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/5.0 Safari/533.16

    Read this somewhere else: Can't find it again so can't reference - apols.
    fixed by entering

    toggle dom.storage.enabled to 'true'
    worked for me - but don't know what it does or why :)

  • Firefox wont open and the task manager wont open as well

    My firefox wont open and when i try to fix it by managing profiles, it wont start up. when i try to go through the task manager it also wont start up. i dont know what i can do to fix this. ive tried uninstalling and installing tons of times. i just dont know what to do

    Clint:
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    In terms of the Firefox issue. Boot the computer and log in. Then go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Accounts > Login Items and see if Firefox is listed there. If it is, then select it and click the minus sign at then bottom left. The reboot the computer and try to launch Firefox.
    A couple of other things to check. Open a Finder Window (Commnand + N when in Finder) and look in the sidebar. Do you see a white disk-like icon named Firefox? If you do, click on it, drag the Firefox icon into the Applications folder, then eject the white disk icon.
    If neither of the above work, hold down Command + Option + esc. Do you see Firefox in the list of items to Force quit? If you do, select it and Force quit.
    Please let me know if any of these work.
    In terms of Dashboard, do you have the install disk for the OS you have installed?

    Hello,
    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.
