How can I get Firefox to save what folder I last uploaded from?

I recently updated to FF 5.0.1 from some antiquated version of FF 3. I have set the download destination so that it always saves to the folder of my choosing, but it does not seem to remember the folder I last uploaded from. For example, say I wanted to find an image, save it, and then upload it somewhere (a common occurrence for image macros on chan boards). With the previous version of Firefox, I could save to something like C://User/Pictures and then click "browse" to chose the image I just saved from another site. It would then open up C://User/Picutres and I could click on my desired image.
Now any time I restart Firefox the default upload source is the desktop. Previously Firefox would have saved information and would by default open up whatever folder I last saved to (or uploaded from if that was the last action). So if I downloaded to C://UserABC/Pictures/FunnyPics then Firefox would open C://UserABC/Pictures/FunnyPics for uploading. Now it goes straight to C://Users/UserABC/Desktop.
This makes it a real pain to navigate BACK to the folder I do most of my uploading from every time I restart Firefox. How can I set it up so Firefox will once again open up my last saved-to or uploaded-from folder as it did before?

Open ''Tools'' -> ''Options'' or, if that option isn't there, ''Edit'' -> ''Preferences'' and select ''Security'' from the resulting window. Click ''Saved Passwords'', which will open a dialog box with all the sites you have passwords saved on. Click the site your password changed on, and choose Remove. The next time you go to that site and input your password, you'll be asked if you want to save your password. Press ''Yes'' and it'll save your new password.

  • 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 />

  • When clicking "Save image as" how can I get Firefox to auto add a (1) (2) etc at the end of the filename if an image with the same filename already exists?

    How can I get Firefox to automatically rename images when clicking "Save image as" on the menu, when an image with the same file name already exists in the folder??

    Hello,
    That is not a feature that is supported natively within Firefox but there are various add-ons which I think will do the job you need.
    The one I have used is [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/web-slide-show/?src=search Web Slide Show]. This is primarily an add-on for viewing a slideshow of images when they are presented as thumbnails on a web page. However once you are in the slideshow there is a download button which will download all the images in the slideshow. It will automatically rename the images if an image with the same name already exists in the folder.
    If you don't like that add-on then here are some others that may do the same job:
    * [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/image-download-%E2%85%B1/?src=search Image Download II]
    * [https://addons.mozilla.org/En-us/firefox/addon/image-picker/ Image Picker]
    I hope that helps. Let me know if not.
    Also I notice that you are using Firefox v23. That is now an outdated version. To get the latest security updates I suggest updating to version 24. See the support article here: [[Update Firefox to the latest version]].

    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    Firefox can have multiple home pages if you wish. Each home page that will open when starting Firefox is separated by the "|" character.
    See: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
    To have new tabs open a specific web site, add one of the following extensions:

    How can I get Firefox to search my computer for plugins that are already there?
    Adobe's Flash player is already on my computer from IE 8. How can I get Firefox to see that it is already on my PC and use it so I don't have to download it again and possibly create other problems. Also, in my efforts to download Flash, Firefox activated IE which made me concerned that proceeding WOULD cause problems our just leave me where I am now where IE can use Flask but Firefox cannot.

    Internet Explorer uses a ActiveX version of the Flash player plugin as it does not work with other browsers.
    Download the Plugin-based browsers version from https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html and make sure Firefox is closed when you install it.

  • In my received emails, how can I get Firefox to open URL links that begin with "click."?

    In my emails, how can I get Firefox to open links that begin with the word "click."? Instead of giving the me the message that says, for example, "Firefox can't find the server at click.americas.links.hp.com." This also happens when I try to open the links using Explorer.

    This link was not valid when I clicked it. Please contact the person sending these links they do not seem to work. The page takes me to a page that says it will load after 5 seconds, however there is not valid link.

  • Before, when I typed an http address in my hotmail account, it would be highlighted; since I got firefox, it is NOT highlighted. How can I get firefox to highlight an http address when I type it?

    Before, when I typed an http address in my hotmail account, it would be highlighted; since I got firefox, it is NOT highlighted. How can I get firefox to highlight an http address when I type it?

    Do you mean to create a clickable hyperlink while composing a new mail?
    Just above the textarea that you use to enter the message text there is usually a button bar with buttons to add text formatting like Bold and Italic.<br />
    That toolbar may also have a button to turn a text link into a clickable hyperlink (look for a chain like button).<br />
    You can select the text and click that button to turn the link into a clickable hyperlink.<br />
    If you can't find the button then hover them all to check the tooltip of each.

  • How can I get Firefox to execute html code in a text file?

    I used Notepad to create a text file, markup.html, that contains html code. How can I get Firefox to execute this code?
    Also, how can I use the <script> tag in the html code using the src attribute to execute code in a file written in Javascript?

    First guess is that you did not use an .html extension on the file. The file may well be ''name.html.txt''

    An iOS fluke or mail app glitch maybe. Not sure anyone will know why you get it. Do you're ever close the mail app? Try closing it and reset the iPad and see if the message goes away.
    Assuming that you are running iOS 7, in order to close apps, you drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the Mail app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
