How can i get the downloads window back? i hate the add-on thing at the top right. can i change this?

I liked how FireFox used to have a downloads window when I would download. But, now its like som sort of add-on, it's at the top right and I dont like it very well. Can I get the window back somehow? Thanks, Lego893.

There is a way, but it may not be supported for ever... If you want the old download manager back, go to about:config, click the I'll be careful, I promise! button. Then search for "download", and set the browser.download.useToolkitUI preference to true (double-click it).

  • How can I get my apple ID back if my ID were stolen and all of my personal information were changed

    I recently found out if someone else stolen my apple ID then he can login my account on apple's website and change almost every information, like my first and last name, my apple ID, my password, my security question and my birthday... Those information are used for resetting password and retrieving the apple ID, if they were all changed by some thief how is that possible for me to get my apple id back? Is there any way to protect my apple id in case of this kind of things really happen?

  • Can I get my old calendar back, before 7.1,. I liked seeing the whole week on me iPhone 4s. And being able to scroll

    Can I get my old calendar back? Before ios7.1. I liked seeing the whole week and being able to scroll & scroll.........

    No, without a current backup any material that has been added in the interim will be lost.  Frequent backups are always highly recommended, especially before a major update to software.

  • In my Firefox ver 3, I can have the download window minimized and still havw a small line above the taskbar that shows remaining download time. In my ver 5 I cant seem to find that option or how to enale that feature 5

    Seems like I want

    The download history is part of the regular browsing history, so you would have to disable the history altogether as you've already noticed.
    * Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history"
    **"Remember my browsing and download history"
    Firefox manages the downloads in the Downloads folder in the Library.
    * Firefox > History > Show All History > Downloads
    Future Firefox versions won't use the current download manager (pref: browser.download.useToolkitUI; Bug 726444), but use a toolbar button with a drop down list, similar to the Bookmarks Menu button.

  • How do I get my palette windows back in Illustrator CC2014?

    I usually work out of the "Essentials" palette, but today I noticed all my palette windows have disappeared and I can't figure out how to get them back. No layers, Type, Characters, Swatches – etc. On the other hand I do have all the tool bar. I'm thinking I may've inadvertently hit a shortcut key that's temporarily hidden them.
    I have noticed that the palette windows are there if I am in Painting, Printing and Proofing, Tracing, Typography, and Web. But not available for Essentials or Layout – until I did a reset in Layout and then they came back. I've done a reset on Essentials without any luck.
    Working in Painting or some other format for now.
    Thanks.
    Sandra

    Just because it wasn't otherwise noted...

    That is easy to do, seeing as it's the TAB key. It's an off/on toggle.

  • After I've restored my IPhone 5, how do I get my downloaded music back onto my iTunes ?

    After Ive restored my Iphone 5 from recovery mode, how can I get the Music that Ive downloaded back onto my IPhone? Is there any possibilities that I can even do so? If so, How? Thanks.

    You can connect the phone to your computer and sync the tracks from your iTunes library. You can also re-download any purchases from Apple via the iTunes Store and the App Store by going to the "Purchased" tabs and downloaded your stuff.
    Perhaps you could try this to resolve your issue: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4461

  • Can't Get Mail Inbox Window Back

    I'm posting this for a co-worker....she pushed the Mail Inbox window all the way to the right and up and now she can't get it back. She's restarted but still nothing is bringing it back. Also played with the resolution and it's at the maximum, so there's no making it bigger. Any suggestions would be great...thanks! She has a G4 and is running Panther.
    G4   Mac OS X (10.3.8)  
    mac mini   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Those settings are stored in the preferences file. If you cannot figure out how to solve the problem in Mail, you may try re-creating that file:
    1. If you have a .Mac account and .Mac synchronization of Mail data is enabled either in Mail > Preferences > General or in System Preferences > .Mac, disable it before proceeding.
    2. Quit Mail if it’s running.
    3. Make a backup copy of the ~/Library/Mail folder, just in case something goes wrong while trying to solve the problem. You can do this in the Finder by dragging the folder to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down, for example. This is where all your mail is stored.
    4. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Preferences/. Locate com.apple.mail.plist and move it to the Desktop (to be deleted if this fixes the problem).
    5. Open Mail. You’ll have to set up your non-.Mac accounts from scratch all over again. If given the option to import existing mailboxes or something like that, don’t. Just enter the account information and Mail will automagically rediscover the data in ~/Library/Mail/ when done.
    You’ll also have to re-configure most of your settings in Mail > Preferences. For spam-related security reasons, the first thing you should do is go to Preferences > Viewing and disable Display remote images in HTML messages if it’s enabled.
    You may also need to re-install or re-enable any Mail plug-ins you have installed for Mail to recognize them.
    6. As a side effect of re-creating com.apple.mail.plist, Mail might rename Outbox (which is where messages waiting to be sent are stored) to Delivered. The name of that mailbox is actually a misnomer, as it would contain messages (if any) that couldn’t be delivered for some reason. You can delete that mailbox if you wish.
    7. If the problem is fixed now and .Mac synchronization of Mail data was enabled at the beginning, enable it again, go to System Preferences > .Mac > Advanced, click Reset Sync Data, and choose the appropriate options to reset the Mail data stored on the .Mac server with the data locally stored on the computer, i.e. sync data must flow from the computer to the .Mac server.
    BTW, if the system in question is Mac OS X 10.3 (Panther), it would have been more appropriate to discuss this in the Mail & Address Book - Mac OS X 10.3 & earlier forum. If the discussion applies to both Mail 1.x and Mail 2.x, it doesn’t really matter, but it’s difficult to know that in advance.
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the folder path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the folder path there.

  • I can't get Realplayer Downloader to run on my XP Pro machine even though the add-on is installed and enabled.

    The Downloader works with IE8 but not with Firefox, however the Download Helper does work with Firefox (I just like Realplayer's version better). I'd appreciate any suggestions. Thank You! WW

    Ah, okay. I understand now.
    There's a couple of things you could try:
    *Try disabling all your your themes, add-ons and plug-ins that are not RealPlayer specific to see if that solves the problem. Do this in [[Safe Mode]]. If doing this gets RealPlayer to work with Firefox, then one of your themes, add-ons or plug-ins (or a combination of two or more of them) are conflicting with the RealPlayer functionality. <br /><br />
    *If you can use RealPlayer in Firefox successfully with a new (unenhanced) profile, or in your standard profile with all themes, add-ons and plug-ins disabled, then try enabling them, one a a time, and restarting the browser after each to test each one sequentially. You should be able to narrow down which one or combination is causing the problem that way.
    *If you cannot use RealPlayer in Firefox with a new and unenhanced profile, or with all themes, add-ons and plug-ins disabled, then the issue may be that the RealPlayer product simply does not function as intended. The fact that RealPlayer support has a support page dedicated to the problem seems to indicate the problem is on their end, rather than with Firefox.

  • How do I get my application window back on my desktop?

    I use an extra LCD display with my G5 which I have temporarily disconnected.
    When I use Sorenson Squeeze 4.3 it usually appears on the second screen but since I have disconnected it, the application window has disappeared off-screen. I have made sure that the computer doesn’t still think that the extra display is connected but this makes no difference.
    Please Help
    G5   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    Open the Script Editor in the /Applications/AppleScript/ folder and run the following:
    tell app "Sorenson Squeeze 4.3"
    set bounds of window 1 to {122, 132, 897, 517}
    end tell
    Press the Run button; changing the first number in the second line may be needed. This method does not work with all applications.

  • Can I get my old version back if itunes updated it thinking it was my ipod?, Can I get my old version back if itunes updated it thinking it was my ipod?

    I plugged my iphone into my computer, itunes popped up and said an upgrade was due so I hit it and it updated my iphone thinking it was my ipod and changed everything and deleted all of my photos, is there any way of changing this back?

    There is nothing to get back.  There is no way to downgrade and even if there was, it would not magically make content re-appear.
    Pictures taken with the device are designed to be copied to the computer regularly like with any digital camera.  Simply sync them back.

  • How can I get my iTunes window back?

    Help!! My iTunes main window has suddenly vanished & nothing I have tried will bring it back. I've tried everything I can think of. There is nothing in any of the menus that will bring it back. I have re-installed iTunes but that didn't help. The window was still missing. I am stuck with a 'rump iTunes'. Any suggestions? Don.

    Thanks for the suggestion but I'm way past preliminary things like that. That was one of the first things I checked on. I've restarted umpteen times, I've removed the preferences from the Library folder in Finder & re-installed iTunes, but the window still doesn't come back. I've run out of ideas. Don.
