How can I get interactive websites to work with Firefox?

In the last week many of the interactive websites I've been using for years suddenly stopped working properly. However they do work with Internet Explorer. How can I get them to work again with Firefox?

In what way are those websites not working?
Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window or otherwise make changes.

How can I use same bookmarks file for both Firefox & Internet Explorer?

There are lots of questions and answers about how to import/export bookmarks/favorites to/from Internet Explorer, but they all seem to assume that afterward you're only going to use the one browser.
But like many other people, although I prefer to use Firefox, there are times I need to use IE for certain sites, or to see how a page I'm creating will display to IE users. This means that I regularly edit bookmarks/favorites in both browsers, and can't possibly keep up with importing/exporting back and forth. What I need to do is use the same set of bookmarks with both browsers, so that the next time I bookmark a page in IE it will be available when I re-open Firefox and vice versa.
I had things configured that way on my last computer, and it worked beautifully for years. Of course, it's long enough ago that I forgot how I did it, and a perfect memory wouldn't help anyway, since it was under Windows XP, and older versions of both browsers. Now I'm in the throes of learning Windows 7 on a new machine and haven't yet figured out how it thinks or wants me to think, so until I get my feet under me I'll need some pretty specific instructions. (Explanation would also be appreciated, as I do like to know the whys of things and it will help me become more proficient eventually; but at this moment my mental bandwidth is pretty low and my priority is just to get some basic things working.)

Hi fastauntie,
This add-on may be able to help: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/plainoldfavorites PlainOldFavorites]. It allows you to access your Internet Explorer favourites from within firefox. There are some instructions here: [http://www.howtogeek.com/59050/from-the-tips-box-simple-ie-to-firefox-syncing-easy-windows-toolbars-and-identifying-usb-cables/]
Also you might be interested in [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ie-tab-2-ff-36 IE Tab v2]. It will allow you to use the Internet Explorer rendering engine from within firefox. It is useful if you want to see how a page would display in IE without leaving Firefox.
I hope that helps,

How can i tell what computers are authorized with my itunes account?

My iTunes app tells me that I have 5 computers currently authorized with my account. How can I tell which ones they are??? I've checked all of my old desktops and laptops to deauthorize them but they indicate that they were never authorized. Confusing. Why go to the trouble managing how many are authorized if you don't provide a means to list them??? I realize that I can deauthorize them all (the only choice!) but, in doing so and reauthorizing the ones I need, does this mean that I lose the ability to access previously purchased music on them?? I must say that, for the ease of use of the Apple apps, I expected more. Thanks:-) !

You cannot. You can see the number of authorised machines.
Go to itunes Store, Select Account from Quick Links on the right.
If you already have 5 authorised but can't remember which the machines are you have the option of once every 90 days to deauthorize all comuters and then individually reauthorising the ones you want.
On each machine in iTunes Click Store > Authorise this computer

How can I select to answer a mail with or without the message

Hello
When a mail is received and then opened, I have the options to answer to the sender or to all. In the account preferences, I can specify if the original message is copied or not. This option applies to ALL the answers. How can I choose when editing a mail if I want the message to be copied or not ?
Kind regards
JP

This is the easiest method I have found that will resolve your issue.
'Tools' > 'Account Settings' > 'Composition & Addressing' for the maill account
or
'menu icon' > 'Options' > 'Account Settings' > 'Composition & Addressing' for the mail account.
deselect / do not select 'Automatically quote the original message when replying'.
Click on OK to save changes.
To send a 'Reply' with no original message, simply click on 'Reply' button.
To send a 'Reply' with all or part of original message.
Highlight the section of the message or all of the message and then click on 'Reply' button

I got a new computer and a new firefox. How can I move my bookmarks from my old firefox on old computer to the new one?

I installed firefox on my new computer (Win XP). So how can I move all my firefox bookmarks from my old computer to the new one and use them?

See this:
https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Recovering+important+data+from+an+old+profile

Despite numerous reboots Firefox would not open for 3 days because apparently it was occupied, how can I see what it is occupied with and how to close it ?

I opened my online banking site but could not sign in or sign out hence I closed the website and closed Firefox. For 3 days I could not open Firefox nor Explorer. During the 3 days I rebooted several times. On the forth day when I opened Firefox a screen opened saying Firefox was embarrassed etc. etc.. and that I could restore my online banking site which I did. I was able to sign in and sign out of the account and close the website. My question is when Firefox locks up like this, how can I see if a site is open in Firefox if I can't open Firefox?
I am using Windows 7

The 'Embarrassed' screen comes up when Firefox has not closed down correctly and is trying to restore the situation. This will not always succeed, and you may have to do a normal restart.
* [[Firefox hangs or is not responding - How to fix]]
* [[Restore previous session - Configure when Firefox shows your most recent tabs and windows]] (This has info on the embarrassing screen)
You should always try to close Firefox by using
* '''Firefox Button -> Exit''' (Windows 7)
* File -> Quit (on XP and other systems)
Where possible try to avoid closing by: killing the process, closing the window, or turning off the computer whilst Firefox is running.
If you are unable to sign in to a website sometimes it may be a Firefox problem, other times it may be an internet problem, or the site itself.
* see also [[Websites don't load - troubleshoot and fix error messages]]
* and [[Fix problems connecting to websites after updating Firefox]]
I do not know why you could not open firefox for 3 days, presumably a problem with your computer. Note even if there is no internet Firefox itself should still open when required.
If Windows Explorer is not running/working there was probably not much you could easily do with the computer. Or was your problem with Internet Explorer (The default Windows Browser) again possibly a symptom of a bigger problem.

How can I address a memory leak problem with Firefox?

I have happily used Firefox for the past 7 years, and have rarely had difficulties. However, I am having some trouble now; Firefox (running 3.6.6) seems to have a memory leak on my machine. It's slower than what was discussed in other forum posts, but it still scales up slowly to multiple hundred MBs of Memory with very little CPU usage.
I have tried disabling add-ons and extensions, but this does not stop the problem. I have cleared my cache and other stored data, but that also does not help. Has anyone experienced a similar problem that might be able to help?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== within last two weeks

Hi reble0708,
I have Java console disabled on my Firefox browser.Everything is working fine for me. There maybe other problem on your browser which is making PDF document faded and blurry. Can you post the link where you found the problem viewing the PDF document?
Btw, you can go to ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/ and select the previous version of Firefox from the given options. There's no need to uninstall Firefox before you downgrade to the previous version of it.But before new installation, backup your Firefox profile folder.
edit: replaced random unofficial download site link.

How can I get security updates without dealing with Firefox 4 update reminders?

I tried Firefox 4 for awhile, hated it and reloaded 3.6. I keep getting reminders to update to 4 which are bothersome. I have disabled reminders, but how can I continue to get security updates without upgrading to 4?

Install Secunia's free Personal Software Inspector: http://secunia.com/vulnerability_scanning/personal
You also need to update Flash a.s.a.p. The version you're running right now is a security risk. See http://www.adobe.com/support/security/advisories/apsa11-02.html
Update via http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
Also, update Firefox to 3.6.17 because there was a security breach at Comodo which is an SSL certificate provider recently whereby a number of fraudulent certificates were inadvertently issued. These allow a hacker to impersonate any site including online banking and the Firefox version you're running at the moment will not warn you that the site is a fake. The fraudulent certificates were blacklisted in v3.6.17 and beyond.

How can I have ONE bookmark folder and no tool bar/option, but alphabetized?

i don't want bookmark tool bar, all I want is "show all bookmarks" alphabetized

Usually if you choose Show All Bookmarks, Firefox opens a separate window called the Library. Is that what you meant?
As far as I remember, Firefox doesn't have a setting to keep your bookmarks alphabetical as you add them, but you can alphabetize them in the Library dialog. In the left column, right-click Bookmarks Menu, then Sort by Name.
And you can close the Bookmarks Toolbar. Right-click a blank area of the tab bar (or the new tab "+" button on that bar) and "uncheck" Bookmarks Toolbar.
To access your bookmarks without the toolbar, you can use any of the following:
* Bookmarks menu on the classic menu bar (Alt+b) or on the compact menu behind the orange Firefox button
* Bookmarks button (drop-down list) on a toolbar ''(if the classic menu bar is not displayed)''
* Bookmarks Sidebar (Ctrl+b)
Does that help?

HT202213 How can I select what music to share on my devices through Home Sharing?

Hi!
I know I can use Home Sharing to share music files from my laptop to my iPad mini.

How can I merge two iTunes folder, one with music and the other without?

Two years ago Apple support suggested moving my iTunes folder out of my Home folder to the HD level in order to share it across users. This is no longer necessary. How do I move my music back to my Home folder since now I have an Itunes folder at the HD level (along with application, library, system, users folders) and an Itunes folder under Music in my Home folder. For example both those itunes folders have a mobile application, album artwork, and previous itunes library subfolder as well as itunes library extras.itdb and itunes library genius.itdb. How do I merge them or which ones do I delete? The files in the mobile app folder in my Home folder have a newer "last modified" date. Currenty under Itunes-->Preferences-->Advanced, it says Itunes media location is /itunes/itunes media/ music. I assumes that is the HD level folder. What happens if I hit reset?
I am using Itunes 10.6.3.
Any help tailored to a novice would be great. Thanks.

Thanks for the links, Limnos.
If you are willing to continue helping, here's what I found.
Just to clarify the two iTunes folders I am refering to are:
username-->Music-->iTunes
HD-->iTunes
I am presuming each location has a full set of files as outlined in the above links?
Not all the files are in both locations. Most are.
- The Itunes folder in my home folder does not have itunes library.xml.
- The Itunes folder in my home folder has a subfolder called Mobile Applications (username-->Music-->iTunes--> Mobile application). The Itunes folder at the HD level also has a Mobile Application folder but it is a subfolder of Itunes Media folder (HD-->iTunes--> iTunes Media-->Mobile applications) and has no files in it.
- I do not have an iTunes Media in the iTunes folder in my home folder.
- also the Itunes media folder (HD-->iTunes--> iTunes Media) has subfolders by type (books, movies, itunes u, music etc...) but the iTunes Media-->Music also has some of the same subfolders ( iTunes Media-->Music-->books, iTunes Media-->Music-->Movies, iTunes Media-->Music-->iTunes U). Is this normal repetition?
You say:
/itunes/itunes media/ music
but it is important to note what comes before all that.
There is nothing as far as I can tell before that first forward slash. Since the only iTunes Media folder I have is in the iTunes folder that resides at the HD level (HD-->iTunes--> iTunes Media folder) not the iTunes folder in my home folder (username-->Music-->iTunes) , I assume that's the one that holds the music.
Keep iTunes media folder organized and Copy files to iTunes Media folder when adding to library are both checked on
Does that give more clarity into my problem?

How can I select the Quicktime plug-in (in Firefox) as the Helper Application, as only programs out of the web browser are shown?

I recently updated my QuickTime Plug-in (7.7.4) on Firefox 21. Prior to the update, I could open midi files in the Firefox and other browsers with a QuickTime Player. Now, I've got my Windows 7 computer asking how it should save or open the file. The QuickTime Plug-in is enabled and works with other types of files. If I open Tools, select Options, and select Applications, I do have the option of selecting "Use QuickTime Plug-in 7.7.4 (in Firefox)" for many file types. For the "Midi Sequence" type, it isn't an option, (only programs which open the midi files outside of the browser). Presently my only option is to use "Windows Media Player" as the default program, (opening midi files outside of the browser). "Mid file" allows the selection of the QuickTime Plug-in but still goes out of the Firefox browser to use the Windows Media Player, whether the file's extension is .mid or .midi
Is these someplace I can find the "Use QuickTime Plug-in 7.7.4 (in Firefox)" with the "Browse" within my computer's files, or am I now stuck using the "Windows Media Player" when a plug-in should be able to do this simple task? I can watch YouTUbe (in Firefox) but cannot play a midi file (in Firefox)!

QT 7.7.4 use "audio/mid" MIME type only and does not understand now "audio/midi" and "audio/x-midi" types commonly used on server side. Blame Apple for that.

How can I get my bookmarks back after uninstalling Firefox?

When uninstalling Firefox, it asked me if I wanted to delete my bookmarks, etc. I clicked in the check box to delete them, but after a couple days, I realized I should have saved them. Someone told me there is probably a temp folder that is hidden somewhere for just this reason. Can anyone help me get my bookmarks back please? Oh yea, my OS is Vista and I have reinstalled Firefox 3.6.8

You can try with an undelete program like Recuva if you can restore a JSON backup in the bookmarkbackups folder.

How can I select multiple cells in tableview with javafx only by mouse?

I have an application with a tableview in javafx and i want to select multiple cells only by mouse (something like the selection which exists in excel).I tried with setOnMouseDragged but i cant'n do something because the selection returns only the cell from where the selection started.Can someone help me?

For mouse drag events to propagate to nodes other than the node in which the drag initiated, you need to activate a "full press-drag-release gesture" by calling startFullDrag(...) on the initial node. (See the Javadocs for MouseEvent and MouseDragEvent for details.) Then you can register for MouseDragEvents on the table cells in order to receive and process those events.
Here's a simple example: the UI is not supposed to be ideal but it will give you the idea.
