How to alter file associations on Firefox for Mobile

When I click to download a .mid (midi) file, Firefox automatically launches an Autocad applicaion I have installed on my (Android) phone. Is it Firefox or the Autocad app that's taken control of that file extention ?

Firefox asks the Android OS for a list of apps that are able to open the file. Possibly opeining settings > applications > manage applications > all > autocad > clear default may allow you to select a program to open the file.

  • How do I export bookmarks from Firefox for Mobile (android) to an html file?

    I have bookmarks on my Firefox for Mobile v 33.1 that I would like to copy/back up to an html file. Even if I access the desktop version on my tablet I don't see the Show all Bookmarks - Import/Export option. This Android profile used to be linked through the old Firefox Sync to my PC but the issue is that I can't access it from my PC anymore as I just had to replace the hard disk. I have now installed the new Firefox on my PC but it won't sync with the old Android version as the new Firefox Sync is not compatible with the old one. Also when I go under Sync on the Android, it says the email account is deprecated.
    Going forward I understand I need to remove account on the Android, update to the new Firefox Sync and newly link PC and Android device. However I have read that If I remove the account on my Android Firefox and set up the new Firefox Sync on it, I will lose my old bookmarks and it will only start saving and syncing bookmarks from then on even if I use the same email address to set it up. If this is the case and before taking this step, is there a way I can copy my old Android bookmarks to an html file?
    All suggestions very much appreciated! I'm completely lost.
    Thanks

    Tangram that is an answer for desktop Firefox. It does not apply to Firefox for Android.
    There is no way to export bookmarks/history in Firefox for Android.
    However your Firefox sync account is unrelated to the Firefox for Android profile. You can safely remove the account without loss of data. Then set up a new Sync Account.

  • How do you quit or close Firefox for Android

    How do you quit or close Firefox for Android ?

    hi John009, you could close firefox like any other android app by going to the task switcher/recent apps list and swiping away the application...
    http://www.wikihow.com/Close-Apps-on-Android
    alternatively when you have set firefox to clear your private data when you exit it within its settings, there will be a dedicated "quit" button shown within the firefox app menu.

  • Does Firefox for mobile support xul?

    Does Firefox for mobile support xul file? If not, can I build Firefox to support this on mobile? Where is the build instruction?

    Firefox mobile uses XUL and you can use that along with CSS and JavaScript to create extensions. However since Firefox 4 you cannot load XUL from a website. https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Using_Remote_XUL

  • Firefox for Mobile changing ".jpg" to ".jpg.jpeg"

    I tried to save jpg images,
    always Firefox for mobile changing ext, ".jpg" to ".jpg.jpeg".
    It was the same situation with betaversion and Nightly

    Christina:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. To resize for other applications just select those you want to resize and use the File->Export->File Export route. There you will have the option to select the size you'd like.
    As for the JPG vs JPEG, have you tried submitting a JPG file? Those two extensions are the same and can be used interchangeably. The JPEG is the more formal representation of that format. If the simple JPG extension is rejected you can use R-Name to batch change the extension to JPEG before you submit them to the site. You'll have to do that after you export from iPhoto.

  • How to build dynamic databases(record set) for mobile?

    Hi All ,
    i have an applocation that needs to personalize the data for users .
    i have the data available , but dont know how to personalize it fot users to download special version of my application.
    how to build dynamic databases(record set) for mobile?

    In the load rule in the dimension build settings you would need to go to the tab dimension definition, choose the time dimension and right click on it. Select Edit properties. If you have not done so, set the dimension to be the time dimension. Then go to the generations/levels tab and set the generation names you need. For example if you want YTD, you would set the generation name to Year, if you want QTD set it to Quarter. You would set the number to the generation number that coorisponds to the generation. The DBAG has the list of names for all of the DTS members.

  • Is the Firefox for Mobile desktop emulator still available?

    I've followed the link in this thread: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/792964 but can't find any further information on downloading the Firefox for Mobile Emulator. Could just be a lack of caffeine on a Friday morning...
    Any help appreciated.

    Hi,
    I think Fennec 10.0b6 was the last release: https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/releases/10.0b6/

  • How to create an online fillable form for mobile devices, tablets and smartphones.

    How can I create "online fillable forms" for Mobile devices, tablets and smarphones?
    I already created an "online fillable form" with Adobe Acrobat XI Pro for PCs and MACs but this form can not be filled using mobile devices, it can only be downloaded.
    Thanks.

    Hi George,
    I gather from your reply that I won't be able to create "online fillable forms" for Mobile devices with Adobe Acrobat XI Pro. Correct? 
    If Adobe does not have another software similar to Adobe Acrobat XI Pro, would you please suggest me any other means of creating "online fillable forms" for Mobile devices? 
    Would you think that an HTML developed form would be a fair substitute for the PDF fillable forms that I use for PCs and MACs?
    Thanks,
    Alvaro

  • How to restore file associations in Bridge CS5?

    Hi
    Some time ago I somehow lost file associations in Adobe Bridge CS5. Now when I doubleclick a RAW file (Canon .CR2 file) I get Firefox, when I doubleclick a JPG I get FastStone and when I doubleclick a PSD file nothing happens at all. Also Photoshop is not in the options I get by right-clicking photos and choosing "Open with...".
    I have tried [ Edit -> Preferences... -> File Type Associations -> Reset to Default Associations ] , but that didn't help.
    Also when I look in the File Type Association dialog, my file types are set to "Explorer Settings", and Photoshop is not among the other options. I don't know how this uses to be (if associations are defined in Bridge or it uses Explorer/Windows settings?), but how do I easily recreate original setup from when I installed Photoshop?

    Hi Neil
    Thanks for the answer. I'm aware I can manually setup associations one-by-one for all file types I need, but just hoped there was some easier way. I mean there's a lot of file types associated in either windows/explorer or directly in Bridge. Some that I might not know I need tomorrow.  Two things I have found out since I asked the question:
    1) The problem is probably caused by uninstalling my old CS4 after I had installed CS5. It looks like somebody experienced a similar problem by uninstalling CS3 after the installation of CS4: http://forums.adobe.com/message/1899159#1899159. So apparently a bug Adobe hasn't fixed even though it was in previous version too!? :-( I think it is only natural to keep your old version installed for some time when installing an upgrade. Just to make sure the new version works well before you uninstall the previous (And I have previous had the problem that a new version of Photoshop had a habit of freezing on my PC - or some other error I don't remember -  until Adobe released an update. So there's a reason for my behavior).
    2) I have installed a second copy of CS5 now on my secondary portable PC, and are using this to make a similar setup regarding file associations in windows/explorer and Bridge. All associations for Photoshop was lost on my primary PC, and God... there's a lot of file associations to setup again... May I recommend Adobe (if reading this) to fix this bug and/or make a script to automatically recover all associations in case of loss!

  • How to identify files associated with apps?

    Hello all -
       I am considering buying a new Mac mini which would come with Yosemite.  My existing mini (mid 2011, Lion 10.7.5) has a lot of apps I do not wish to migrate, so I think I am stuck with manually reinstalling each of the apps I want on the new computer.  How do I identify the necessary files associated with these apps (preferenes, app support, etc.) so I can copy them over after reinstalling on the new computer?  Is there any way to track what files were installed along with the app when it was first installed?  Anyone familiar with the claim of CleanApp to log all associated files with an installation (at time of install), or any other software that does this?
       Thanks - Randy

    Thanks again Arthur for your response.  I looked at RoaringApps but was not sure if I should enable the real time or just use basic.  Real time seems to require a lot of downloading (and modification?)   What do you recommend - Real TIme or Basic?
    As far as SunnyMenu, it is old but has worked flawlessly through and including Lion 10.7.5.  The only alteration of the system is that it is added as a startup item in my User in System Preferences.  It does not change the GUI, but adds menus (that you can customize) in addition to, rather than changing what System X does.  The Dock will not accomodate nearly as many items and SunnyMenu allows for nested subfolders of menu items.  I find it extremely useful and use it every day. I realize one day it will no longer work, but hope that, as it's pretty simple, that may be a bit further off.  As a rule I don't dabble in System modifiying stuff like maintenance, clean-up, speed-up, "optimization" etc. and just rely on System X.  I do have iStat Menus, but I don't believe that's modifying the System, but only displays information.  RoaringApps seems to indicate it's compatible with everything through Yosemite.  Would you recommend against that as well?  It saved me once when my fan failed but I noticed the iStat temp & rpm display and got it repaired at my Apple Store before I completely toasted my mini.
    Thanks again for your replies, they have been extrmely helpful in understanding how to start planning my move to a new Mac mini with Yosemite!

  • How to revert file associations in Win8 back to CS6?

    I have tried out CC. I am not convinced of its merits and worth the money, so I let the subscription end.No problem. I have CS6.
    But how can I revert file associations for example for .PNG or .JPG files back to PS CS6, instead of PS CC? Everytime I change it in the Control Panel, it seemingly accepts it, but then PS comes up with the message that I need to renew my subscription. When I start PS CS6 and open the intended file, there is no problem at all, no subscription renewal message and it all works.
    Can I only change that behaviour by uninstalling CC completely? That sucks, because if I ever change my mind and go for CC, I need to redownload all the software, which takes a lot of hours.

    How?
    You can change them to Paint for instance, then change to PS CS6, but it still reverts to PS CC.
    Now change that to:
    and the result is:

  • File association in Firefox ESR

    I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 and Firefox ESR 10.0.9 installed but the file association is not working. For example, the history window when the download request to open the folder nautilus does not start. Pdf files, jpg and others are not open with their applications.
    The 16.0.1 version of Firefox installed by default works perfectly.

    Try to delete the mimeTypes.rdf file in the Firefox Profile Folder to reset all file actions.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/mimeTypes.rdf
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/File_types_and_download_actions#Resetting_download_actions
    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See "Creating a profile":
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
    If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.
