I can't find the geolocator in the new version of Firefox. I want to change my default location to avoid intrusive ads.

Hi,
I find location-specific search results useless and often annoying. Previous versions of Firefox included clearly marked and obvious instructions for changing the default geographic location. I don't see that anymore. I don't find any geo-locater tab under Tools either. Many thanks!!
Dorothy

Thank you! I did try to add an extension to solve the issue--Redfly--but it is pay-per-click and shows you search results from different countries--not exactly what I wanted.
When I restart Firefox, I'll see how this new one you suggests works!
Many thanks! Have a great weekend!
Dorothy

  • I loaded what I guess is the new version of Firefox and it completely changed my whole task bar. I don't have my Norton Logins with stored passwords, and it's hard to find my favorites. Help get it back to how it was.

    To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data. See https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+Firefox
    You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
    To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.

  • Navigation bar opens new tabs for links on the same site - only newer versions of FireFox does this! Why?

    I've used this custom navigation bar for nearly a decade. New versions of FireFox open new tabs when I navigate to different pages on my weather site. Very annoying!!! I've tried turning off tabs, but then it opens NEW WINDOWS! These links ARE NOT ENCODED TO OPEN IN NEW WINDOWS! What is causing this? Looks like I"m going to have to switch to Chrome or go back to IE, since nobody at Mozilla seems to care about this. They seem to think it is a good feature and not a bug. What gave you the right to decide to open new tabs at random times? If I click a link on a site that is on the same site I'm already on, and the link isn't coded for _blank, then it should open in the same window!

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Reinstalled Win 7 Home Pre. have an icon on desk top titled Old Firefox Data, how can I get this info into my new version of Firefox, FAQ's not clear on this.

    Read FAQ's but did not see how I was to proceed to restore the data in the Old FireFox Data folder on my desktop. It should hold all of my bookmarks, passwords and other data that I would like to recover into this new install of FireFox.

    Look on your desktop. Do you see a folder called; '''Old Firefox?'''

  • How can I use iCloud-keychain if i can not find my country in the country code list?

    How can I use iCloud-keychain if i can not find my country in the country code list?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If your country code does not appear in the list…
    Go to System Preferences > iCloud > Keychain and enter your Apple ID password (Settings > iCloud > Keychain, from a mobile device)
    Select the ‘Create Different Code’ option. (Mobile devices only)
    Select the advanced option and choose whether to create a random code or no code, selecting the later allows syncing across devices but not with Apple’s servers.

  • I know many have this issue but i can't find a solution to the problem. i get message saying insuffisiant disk space in the volume iPhoto library and i have plenty of space available. i have the new macbook pro with retina display.

    I know many have this issue but i can't find a solution to the problem. i get message saying insuffisiant disk space in the volume iPhoto library and i have plenty of space available. i have the new macbook pro with retina display. i have never seen this message before and i have 2 other macbooks and have had many other also. i am assuming this is a problem with the new macbook retina. does anyone know the exact fix to this issue? i have seen many sugestions to try to fix this issue but none have solved the issue for anyone that i can find in the Apple Support Community. thank for looking into this in advance.
    ******A true apple fan********

    Actually your suggestions are the ones that i have tried. i have seen that you have tried to help others with this issue and the only one that i could find that said they found the problem said that it was an ilife update issue and it fixed it and i have no available updates. i know it has to do with something in photo stream because it happens when i create a new library and it is loading the photos but i get the message before i reach the maximum 1000 photos. so i've tried updating, new library(first backing up photos and then deleting them from iPhoto), reinstalling OSX many times, running disc utilities. I called Apple the first day i had this issue and i was the first person to call them for support with the retina display and i actually had it escalated to a senior advisor and we thought we fixed the problem but we did not. i am pretty fluent in dealing with troubleshooting these type of issues and this is the first time i'm reaching out to the community. i figured now that the retina has been out some time now that there would be an obvious answer to this issue. thanks for the quick reply.

  • I've noticed that in the new version of Firefox that you cannot save multiple tabs at one time like the previous Firefox 3.6.or so and I wanted to know if I can find that feature again?

    I've noticed that in the new version of Firefox that you cannot save multiple tabs at one time like the previous Firefox 3.6.or so and I wanted to know if I can find that feature again?
    In the previous versions of Firefox when you went to you Bookmarks menu it gave you the options to either Bookmark This Page 'command' + 'D', Subscribe to this Page, Bookmark All Tabs 'up-arrow-key' + 'command' + 'D', and Organize Bookmarks 'up-arrow-key' + 'command' + 'B' however in the newest version of Firefox there is no Bookmark All Tabs so you can bookmark all the tabs that you have up in one window at a time. So I need to know if it is possible that the feature is now in a different place, is gone altogether, or if you can get that feature another way?
    For me personally and my work I go through hundreds of web pages a day and save around half of those so it is imperative that I be able to bookmark more then one tab at a time because I can't be bothered to bookmark every single page separately and then go through hundreds of tabs in my Unsorted bookmarks in order to sort those bookmarks. It is simple inconvenient to sort every bookmark individually that is why the previous version of Firefox with the Bookmark All Tabs button was superior in its convenience.

    Right click any tab and choose "Bookmark All Tabs".

    - Select the content (rectangle,text etc) and click on hyperlink dropdown > it should show you the added files list
    - Select the file you want to link

  • How can I find a photo from the backup file in my pc?

    How can I find a photo from the backup file in my pc?
    I have accidentally erased a photo. It happened after the backup.

    I am not aware you can extract a single photo or a single app's content from the backup, you can either restore the whole backup to your phone or not restore. If you restore your last backup to your phone then any content that is currently on your phone will be replaced with what was on it at the time that the backup was made - so if you do decide to restore, first copy off any purchases to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases, and copy any documents/files that you've udpated on the phone since the backup.

  • Can't find my loop in the broser

    I imported a whole guiro track in the loop browser and I can't recall it in the browser, I can't find it.
    1) The little search on top right of the browser doesn't let me type in it.
    2) Is the file too long, I imported into the browser before and the files are there, what happened this time. I tried cutting just one bar and bouncing it to create a short loop and can't find it after importing it, I didn't get any error messages either.

    Pages ’09 will not let you delete templates from within the Application. Although you can highlight the template in the Template chooser, the delete or backspace keys, or other key combinations are not recognized.
    By default, any template that you save in Pages ’09 will reside in your original post Library destination within My Templates. I have a Journals folder as a peer to My Templates, and both appear in the Template Chooser. Technically, it is possible to save a template to iCloud from Pages ’09, but the Template chooser won't see it.
    The path that I provided into your Library/Containers/.... is navigable with the Finder. When you get to the com.apple.iWork.Pages folder, right click on it, and choose Show Package Contents from the contextual menu. Then continue clicking through the folders as I revealed earlier.

    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • HT5022 I'm trying to add a "new client" to my wireless network using Airport Utility, but I can't find that option in the new version.  I've downloaded all available updates of the OS and the utility..  Help!

    I'm trying to add my HP wireless printer as a "new client" to my wireless network using Airport Utility, but I can't find that option in the new version.  I've downloaded all available updates of the OS and the utility..  Help!

    Why would you need to ADD a new Client. Unless the APE sytem is completely different then any other Wireless router the printer should get an IP address from the router. That is IF the printer is setup to get an IP from the LAN DHCP server.
    Now you may want to make that IP it does get a Staticly assign IP address so it never changes, which will screw up printing if it does change. But i don't know if you can do that with APE routers.

    adobe starter edition has photo numbers by the picture such as DSCO0283.JPG , where can I find that number on the pictures in PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS 12--reason being that photoshop elements will not convert my catalog to version 12. If i had that number I could manually rebuild my collections into the photoshop elements 12, but all that i see in photoshop elements is dates and i have multiple pictures from the same dates. HELP! I

    finally getting back to this project---adobe starter edition 3.2 is on a windows XP computer
    ADOBE PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS 12 is on our Windows 8.1 computer.
    error messages--- had to give up trying to convert---I copied all our pictures to our windows 7 laptop and I installed adobe photoshop elements 12 (my bought program)
    I wanted to try to convert there first. also I copied our catalog to this computer also. Everything was working fine I could see the collections just as they where on the XP computer.
    then I tried to convert on the laptop. I believe the error said something about corrupt file, so I gave up that day. Next day I tried to open ADOBE STARTER EDITION 3.2  and it wanted an unlock code, no such code exists. and my copy of Elements 12 turned into a trial version which has expired. So I am a little hesitant to try to convert on the XP  computer and mess up the existing catalog,
    unless there is a fool proof way. I have tried manually making collections/ albums on Windows 8.1 and PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS 12  and coping pictures into the new albums. sloooow!!
    I probably have about 4500 pictures and 150 collections/ albums to go. So any suggestions would be appreciated.

  • Where can i find a pdf with the dutch version of the manual for lightroom 6

    where can i find a pdf with the dutch version of the manual for lightroom 6

    I don't think it's available yet.  The English help page has a link to it:
    https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/topics.html
    But the equivalent page for Netherlands only links to prior versions:
    Help bij Lightroom | Help bij Lightroom
    Same for DE, FR, ES.  Maybe someone more enlightened knows if they're available somewhere else on Adobe's site.
