I downloaded the latest version of Firefox yesterday and I cannot get anything to print from Frefox today, is this common?

When I ask it to print either from a webpage or using the File Print command I get a message that says An unknown printer error has occurred. I was not getting it before the latest update. When I use Internet Explorer on the same site, it works fine.

  • I downloaded the latest version of Firefox 13 and ALL webpages appear wrong

    I downloaded latest version of Firefox 13 after getting prompt that I didn't have latest version of Firefox. No webpage looks correct including this one. All webpages appear "plain". For example where I am typing in details right now there should be a box or something to show me where to put details - no box - just blank space. I use Google as my homepage. The Firefox logo used to be on the Google home page but it's missing. When I go to Google Mail there are no boxes to check off delete mail etc... when I go to the same pages using Internet Explorer all pages show correctly so something is wrong on Firefox. I uninstalled and re-installed Firefox without deleting my personal settings etc but this made no difference. If my only option is to delete all my info I will have to do that but have been on Firefox and really don't want to lose this info. I have checked all of the settings when I looked at not all webpages appear correctly in HELP and all setting are correct. What do I do? I don't want to go back to using IE but that is basically what I am having to do right now to function to do banking etc...

    Make sure that you allow pages to choose their colors and that you haven't enabled High Contrast in the Accessibility settings.

  • I downloaded the new version of firefox yesterday and my original status bar and tool bar are gone. How do I restore my original settings?

    I already checked and I do not have a restore point set up on my p/c, so that is not an option. If needed, I would go back to my original version of firefox so I could have everything the way it was back. I do not have anything that I had saved on my new toolbar. All I have is a dropdown arrow under the tiny firefox symbol on the top left side of my screen. I don't even have a bar where I can put a www address in. When someone answers me, please keep in mind that I am only able to take directions and navigate very slowly around here. A p/c wizard, i am not. Thanks in advance for your help.

  • The other day I had downloaded the latest version of Firefox and now none of the icons for the different websites I normally go to are there?

    As I said, the other day I had downloaded the latest version of Firefox and after doing so none of the icons for the different websites that normally go to are no longer there. Websites such as MSNBC, MSN, Most visited, that entire strip is no longer visible. I tired resetting Firefox and still nothing. Can anyone tell me how to get them to appear again? It's a hassle every time that I want to go to one of those sites I have to type it in the search bar, instead of just clicking on it as I did before. Please keep in mind if you answer, that I'm still learning about these things called computers and not very well versed in some of the things that you experts know:) Thanks

    On Windows XP Firefox shows the menu bar by default and not the orange Firefox menu button that is shown when the menu bar is hidden.<br />
    The menu bar is the toolbar at the top that shows menu items like File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, Help.<br />
    You can press the F10 key or tap the Alt key to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily in case this bar is hidden (View > Toolbars or Firefox > Options).
    The Navigation Toolbar shows the Back and forward button and the input field where you type the address of a site that you want to visit (aka location bar) and also has a search bar where you can type items that you want to look up with a search engine (Google).

  • I just downloaded the latest version of firefox (5.0). Can I delete all the older versions that are still on my drive? 2) When I call up some web sites sometimes the web site comes up 3 or 4 times...how do I stop this from happening?

    I just downloaded the latest version of firefox (5.0). Can I delete all the older versions that are still on my drive?
    When I call up some web sites sometimes the web site comes up 3 or 4 times...how do I stop this from happening? For example if I click on a link the exact same link comes up 3 or 4 times and I have to manually delete all of them but one.

    Do you organise your email into separate folders, or do you just let it accumulate in the Inbox?
    I would strongly advise you not to let it sit in the Inbox.
    When you see this happening, try right-click on the affected folder, select '''Properties''' then '''Repair Folder'''.
    Large folders (actually, a folder in Thunderbird is stored as a file, so it is sensitive to file size limits set by the underlying file system) can be problematic. This is one reason not to let messages collect in one folder. I use Thunderbird's Archive folders so that accumulated mails over several years can happily coexist because they are effectively stored in many small folders. No single mail store folder then exceeds the 2GB or 4GB sizes that have been known to stress the OS. I appreciate that current builds of Thunderbird and a modern 64-bit OS should be able to cope, but practically I find it slows down when given huge files, so I err towards a pragmatic solution; a large number of not very big files.
    Archives are searchable, and a Saved Search folder can give you a virtual composite folder allowing access to the entire Archive.

    I have the latest version of Firefox yet I am still getting an error message that says photoshop is no longer supported on my platfrom and thereofre it's not downloading.

    Please give a bit more system details. Which OS and version are you on? Is it 32 bit or 64 bit. Try downloading the Creative Cloud App if not already installed from: https://creative.adobe.com/products/creative-cloud. You can choose to install PS from withing this app and need not rely on web page.

  • I accidentally downloaded the latested version of firefox to my outdated Mac 10.3.9 and lost the older version of firefox. I need to get the older version of firefox back?

    firefox won't open on my computer as it says that it might be damaged. I downloaded the latest version of firefox and realized after the fact that the latest version is only compatible to mac 10.4 or higher. My computer is only 10.3.9 so it seems that it's too old. I tried downloading an older version from your website and it failed. Please help. I hope I don't have to go out and purchase a new computer!!

    Firefox 2.0.0.20 is the last release that runs on Mac OS X 10.2 and 10.3

  • Ever since I downloaded the latest version of firefox..is running slower, I am not really liking the new format, is there anyway to go back to the old one?

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.
    See:
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Server+not+found
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Firewalls
    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.

  • When you downloaded the latest version of Firefox on July 2/11 I lost all my picture files

    When you downloaded the latest version of Firefox on the 2nd of July all my pictures were wiped out even my desktop wallpaper which was one of my pictures. I have looked in all the places I could think of but haven't been able to find them. To try and find them I uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it but still none of my pictures have been found. They were in my Windows live photo gallery and some in Documents & Pictures.

    Thanx!

    The best maintained PowerPC browser at the moment is TenFourFox:
    http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
    It is a Mac port of a newer version of FF thatn any PowerPC Mac can support natively. It runs, looks and feel like FF.
    I found some add-ons that helped TFF with speed issues. Pleae see my post in another PPC forum:

  • I have a Max OS X. I have tried over and over to download the latest version of Firefox without success. When I open Firefox it props me to download the lastest version. Why is this not downloading? nruddell@primus.ca

    Why can I not download the latest version of firefox onto my Max?

    If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
    * Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    * Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    * Install the new version that you have downloaded

    Hi, I would like every new tab I open to open my homepage. How do I set this? I'm on a PC and downloaded the latest version of Firefox today. Many thanks!

    Have a look at the [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage/?src=ss New Tab Homepage] or the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/my-homepage/?src=search My Homepage] extensions. With My Homepage, if your homepage is set to a search engine, it will give focus to the homepage search bar instead of the address bar when opening a new tab. If you have any questions about installing extensions, [[Using extensions with Firefox]] can help.

  • When I downloaded the latest version of Firefox, the print was so small I could bvarely read it. what do I need to do to enlarge the print without losing some of my tool bars...?

    == When I downloaded the latest version of Firefox, the print was so small I could bvarely read it. what do I need to do to enlarge the print without losing some of my tool bars...?

    THIS ISSUE IS RESOLVED FOR ME.
    When I opened this pop-up to view the settings (File > Page Setup > "Format & Options": Scale ), the Scale value was 40%. Changing it to 100% corrected the issue I observed.
    To my knowledge, I have not been inside this pop-up window before to set the Scale option. Could this value be affected by other actions within Firefox? I noticed this while using v12 which was installed 24Apr2012.I know it worked correctly since that installation, so why did the Scale value change?
    UPDATE: I just realized that the Scale option in print preview sets the Scale value in the settings. NOTE TO ALL: This is a sticky setting, not just a setting for a specific output request.

  • I have downloaded the latest version of Safari, but I now cannot access my e-mail; Firefox can!!!

    I have downloaded the latest version of Safari, but I now cannot acess my e-mail; firefox can however!!!!!

    This solution I have already tried; it worked for actually accessing the net (which was my first problem with the new Safari), but I was unable to access my e-mail.  I have tried the suggested solution, before I received this message, of emptying my Safari cache after logging on to the net - did not work. still locked out of email.  Attempts to logon gets the following in the Safari address line
    "https://loginprodx.att.net/commonLogin/igate_edam/controller.do?TAM_OP=login&USE RNAME=unauthenticated&ERROR_CODE=0x00000000&ERROR_TEXT=Successful%20completion&M ETHOD=GET&URL=%2FFIM%2Fsps%2FATTidp%2Fsaml20%2Flogininitial%3FRequestBinding%3DH TTPPost%26PartnerId%3Dhttps%3A%2F%2Flogin.yahoo.com%2Fsaml%2F2.0%2Fatt%26Target% 3Dhttp%253a%2F%2Fmail.yahoo.com%253f.lts%3D1334925612%3Ftucd567%3Dw&REFERER=http %3A%2F%2Fatt.my.yahoo.com%2F%3F_bc%3D1&HOSTNAME=loginprodx.att.net&AUTHNLEVEL=&F AILREASON=&PROTOCOL=https&OLDSESSION="
    the quotes are mine to delineate the entire message. 
    I am now also getting an ATT message that says "Unknown Destination".  That may be an improvement, but certainly not any lead to an answer.
    This suggests that there may be a problem w/ ATT, but  I need to explore the Safari issue further to in order to be able to push harder on ATT.
