I have an old user name tht is no longer accessible. I access fierfox through a new user name. I have copied the profile from the old user name. Can I have 2 profiles from which to choose when using firefox in the under the new username?

I have a user name on my computer that was tied in with the domain name of the server at my workplace. I would access Firefox under this user name. I have now changed jobs, and for good and obvious reasons can no longer utilize my previous company associated username.
I have set up a new username on the same computer. When I access Firefox, all of my old bookmarks are gone, because Firefox does not recognize me under the new username as the same person. In the meantime, I have established new bookmarks under the new username.
I have copied my profile from Firefox under my old username. Can I have two profiles under my new username and pick which one I want to use at that time when accessing Firefox?
I am running Windows 7 Professional, with 4 gig ram, Intel i3 CPU, 2.13 GHz, 64 bit operating system, Firefox 7.0.1
Thank you

I can't play games on GSN or Pogo when using Firefox; any suggestions on how to fix this?

I can get into the websites, but when I try to load games; I get error messages and they will not load. I downloaded Java; but still doesn't work. Thanks.

If they are Java games, you have a very, very, very old version of Java. Remove it (instructions below), then install the latest version.

I can't comment or like anything on Facebook when using Firefox. Other browsers work, just not Facebook.

I've tried clearing all my history, cookies, and everything else on Firefox, but it doesn't fix the problem.
Whenever I try to comment on a post in facebook it says "Unable to post comment." And it won't let me like any posts either.
Google Chrome works perfectly with Facebook. I don't want to quit using Firefox, but unless I get a solution soon that may be what I have to do.

I have exactly the same problem.
It only affects FaceBook and only in Firefox but it's really annoying.
I can post status updates but can't comment on them or on anything else.
The message "Unable to post comment." with the option to "try again" appears every time.
Also, when I try to "Like" something it's as if it works for a split second and then self "unlikes" again. It's only today I've started to have this problem.
I've tried jscher2000's idea but it did not solve this problem.

I can not get my mouse to work correctly when using firefox. Works fine on IE

When I try to use the search bar on home page, my mouse will not click on it. Have same problem with facebook when I try to go back to homepage-it will not click. I do not have this problem when using IE so I know my mouse is working correctly.

Quit the Mail app.
Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it wiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal. Then restart the app and see if it works normally.

Just purchased a new iMac and after transferring all info from my old iMac. Now when using iPhoto slideshow it displays the pictures in reverse order.

There's a bug in iPhoto 9.5.1 and Mavericks that affects slideshows played directly from an album. The slideshow will not play correctly if the photos have been sorted manually. Any other type of sort, date, rating, keyword or title, will play correctly.
If you need that manual sort of pictures for your slideshow create the slideshow in iPhoto's slideshow mode.

When using Firefox Sync on multiple devices, I used to be able to 'send' a tab from one computer to another. Is this still possible? If so, how?

When using Firefox Sync on multiple devices, I used to be able to 'send' a tab from one computer to another. Is this still possible? If so, how?
I don't mean the ability to see what tabs are open on another device (I know how to do this). But if I am at work and find something that I want to read at home, it would be helpful to 'send' the tab to my home PC so that when I return home, it will automatically open that tab for me.

Can anyone help?

Hello. I have windows xp. When using Firefox as my home page, I get awful screen interference of lines verticle and horizontal. When I switch to Internet Explorer I don't get them. I want to keep Firefox as server.

Hello. I have windows xp. When using Firefox as my home page, I get awful screen interference of lines verticle and horizontal. When I switch to Internet Explorer I don't get them. I want to keep Firefox as server.

Here is something that you can try:
# Click on Tools and then click Options.
# Select the Advanced panel
# Select the General tab
# Uncheck Use hardware acceleration where available.
# Click File and then click Exit.
# Start Firefox normally.
Once you have followed those steps, you'll want to follow these as well and see if the lines are gone.
Click the Help menu and select Restart with Add-ons Disabled.
Let me know if this has eliminated the problem.

I am unable to open any emails or any folders (aside from my inbox) in Hotmail when using Firefox. What do I do?

Starting about mid-day yesterday, when I sign into Hotmail using Firefox, I can get to my inbox but I can't open any emails or go to any other folders. This is only when using Firefox - Internet Explorer works perfectly fine. My Firefox updated itself a couple of days ago and was working fine until yesterday at about 4:30 - 5:00.

When using Firefox I cannot signin to sites, but can get to sites with tabs on toolbar but cannot signout whe signin, I have uninstalled the program and reinstalled it but still have the same problem.

That problem can be caused by the Yahoo! Toolbar that extents too much downwards and covers the top part of the browser window and thus makes links in that part of the screen not clickable.

I need to fix a virus when using firefox, which is this: Log in to X Marks

Recently several minutes after entering internet to see my mail, when using Firefox in my new Toshiba computer, a virus appears like a little box with the inscription "Log in to X Marks", impeaching me to continue checking my electronic mail. Today I have run Malwarebytes and Mcfee with any sucess at all. I thank you in advance for your help

Since many bad add-ons install outside of Firefox and don't have a remove button, here's my suggested procedure for tracking down and cleaning up bad add-ons. I know it seems long, but it's not that bad.
(1) Open the Windows '''Control Panel''', Uninstall a Program. After the list loads, click the "Installed on" column heading to group the infections, I mean, additions, by date. This can help in smoking out undisclosed bundle items that snuck in with some software you agreed to install. Take out as much trash as possible here.
(2) Open Firefox's '''Add-ons page''' using either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
* in the Windows "Run" dialog, type or paste <code>firefox.exe "about:addons"</code>
In the left column, click '''Plugins'''. Set nonessential and unrecognized plugins to "Never Activate".
In the left column, click '''Extensions'''. Then, if in doubt, disable (or Remove, if possible) unrecognized and unwanted extensions.
Often a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
Any improvement?
(3) You can search for remaining issues with the '''scanning/cleaning tools''' listed in our support article: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]]. These on-demand scanners are free and take considerable time to run. If they finish quickly and especially if they require payment, you may have a serious infection. I suggest the specialized forums listed in the article in that case.
Success?

Please help. my address bar has vanished. i have no idea how to retrieve it, so can only access bookmarked sites when using firefox.

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in Full Screen mode with all toolbars hidden.
* Press F11 to toggle full screen mode (Firefox/File > Full Screen)
If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key, that should make the menu bar appear.
Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
* If items are missing then open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout" (Linux, Windows)
* If a missing item is in the toolbar palette then drag it back from the Customize window on the toolbar
* If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up.
