I have installed Firefox 5.0.1 and need administrator rights to run it and have lost my list of bookmarks.

Recently, I upgraded to Firefox 5.0.1. I now require administrator rights to run it. If I start Firefox with ordinary user rights, I am presented with an error message which says that sqlite3.dll is missing from my computer. This file is actually present in three locations on my computer. However, Firefox runs if I start it with administrator rights.
The spell checker no longer works, my list of bookmarks, which was quite extensive, has now disappeared. Also, my history has disappeared too. A security package which I used when
accessing my bank account has also disappeared. This was called Rapport.

Do a clean reinstall.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version.
* Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

    Hi bruce,
    What are you actually looking for? On Windows 7 your options will be under ''Tools > Options''. If you have the ''Firefox'' menu, you can hit ''Alt'' to temporarily enable the menu bar.
    Your System details say Linux. Your say you are on Windows 7 though, correct?

  • Why don't you have a phone #. I want to install Firefox on my ipad2 and can't get an answer. Apple says Firefox is coming for ipad2...when?

    I want to install Firefox on my ipad2 and can't get help. Apple says Firefox is coming for ipad2...when??? Why don't you have a phone# for support? Safari does not allow me to do what I need to on some websites. Help!!

    Apple's rules for their app store do not allow programs such as Firefox to be run on their iOS devices. We do have a tool to allow access to your Firefox Sync bookmarks and history on your iOS device.

    How do I save and import my bookmarks from another hard drive? When I try to open the installed Firefox on the old drive, it (obviously) opens a browser from the new main drive, free of bookmarks. Is there a way I can save the bookmarks on the old drive without opening a browser?
    The guts of my computer were rearranged and I got a new main hard drive. My old one is still in there and I can get stuff from it, but when I go to the Mozilla folder on the old one, I can't figure out if there's anything I can do to get all my bookmarks from that drive to my new one, where Firefox is newly installed.

    If you open Firefox then Firefox will always use the default profile folder as found via profiles.ini on your system drive.
    You either need to import the file in your current default profile or copy the file to your current profile folder while Firefox is closed.
    Firefox 3 stores the bookmarks and the browser history in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/places.sqlite places.sqlite] and no longer creates an HTML backup by default.
    There are also (five) JSON backups in the bookmarkbackups folder within the Firefox profile folder.
    You can either copy the file places.sqlite to your [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] or import the most recent JSON backup from the bookmarkbackups folder of that old profile.

  • Can't install ; i need administrator rights that i have

    Hello,
    I tried many time to install Air but I always failed...
    They keep telling me that I need administrator rights, but I have and i launch the installation with them.
    I tried many ways (like using this as told : http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall/en-us but it didn't work as well, the program is uninstalled - I need to install it again -, and it doesn't appear on the installation programs...) and searched everywhere but without success ; that's why I finally decided to ask here.
    Thank you for your help.

  • I have lost all of my bookmarks from the drop-down menu. It says it is empty, but never have I deleted them. And when I bookmark a page it does not save it. Please help

    Question
    I have lost all of my bookmarks from the drop-down menu. It says it is empty, but never have I deleted them. And when I bookmark a page it does not save it. Please help

    Ok this is bizzare!
    Thank you for your response, I went throught each and every step without any luck, even got the recovery programme, and painstakingly tried to sift through all that mumbojumbo to find what i needed. finally found the bookmark bit, but it had been fully overwritten :(, so on reading about previous ff versions, found the sqlite thingys, and they were relatively unscathed(partly written over, but saveable apparently TG), saved them to adiff drive, amongst other possibly good folders. Then looked up how to install them, and it said to close FF, and install to profile folder.
    So i tried to close FF, and the original problem from a few days ago, where it asked me if 'i was sure i wanted to close this window as it has X tabs open', popped up again. This is where 'open blank page' selection was set, over 'open previous tabs'. Wanting to save that info on how to sort out these friggin files, I reset the Option to 'open previous tabs', and closed FF. After unsucessfully searching for the profile folder on my laptop, i opened FF intending to search online for where i could find said folder.
    AND BANG, surprise surprise, the FF I had just closed with only tabs open about finding out what the heck to do, had disappeared, and instead my original saved tabs were up, and my bookmarks are there..... I am gobsmacked! what the heck just happened there???
    I have made 3 back up in different folders now, of those friggin bookmarks. I am weary now tho of shutting it all down.... what if its back to the other pages I had with no bookmarks, tomorrow :(

  • Itune needs administrator rights to install updates in win xp sp 3

    I have an issue with ITunes application with user profile and administartor profile. ITunes needs administrator right to install updates.
    Under normal user profile , ITunes not able to install any updates.
    It required manual works from administartor to run the application as "Administrator". Application level permission ( itunes.exe ) has full rights to the user,
    but still ITunes needs administrator rights.
    Please advise on how to install iTunes updates without Administrator rights.

    It can't find the uninstaller. Use Revo uninstaller for the PCSuite and all Nokia related driver software and clean the registry with Ccleaner.

  • Hi apple user. I have lost all iPad safari bookmarks. Tried hold home button with sleep button but it doesn't get back my safari bookmarks. I also have reset without erasing my iPad data but still doesn't work. Help me get back my safari iPad bookmarks.

    Hi, I have lost all iPad safari bookmarks. Have tried reset without erasing data and hold home and sleep button together but when go to safari all safari bookmarks still lost. Is there any case help me get back my iPad safari bookmarks ? Currently my safari is hanged, can't surf webs or anything. I saw the safari tab on iCloud is on, but I don't know using iCloud. Please help me get back my iPad safari bookmarks. I have contact Apple but could not set chat session. I have my Apple ID registered same with iCloud, also same during the time I have all iPad safari bookmarks lost. My iPad never synced on computer since I bought it with set at local store. Please help me get my iPad safari bookmarks back, thanks.

    Hi, I quitted Safari and press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons silmutaneously unti the Ipad turn off and on with the logo Apple appears but it has hanged on and fixed to the point. I do it again hold the Home and Sleep buttons silmutaneously and the Ipad turn off and on again with the Apple logo but it still is hanged on the same point. I have do it a few more time, it still hanged to the same point for few hours with no change (like picture):
    I think my Ipad is fault now. I guess I must connect it to the computer with itune, or something. So my case is this: at the moment everytime I hold the Home and Sleep buttons the Ipad always off and reappear with the Apple logo and be hanged on (like the pic), and I need restoring my Ipad Safari bookmarks... so I guess I need using Itune or something to get back the Ipad then using Icloud or blah. Please guide me for the step, Im not sure if connect to PC, if any that my Ipad data would lost, or is there anyway that I also can get back Ipad Safari Bookmarks after connecting to PC, also the how using Icloud. There is no Apple store or service store in my country so I think I must do it my self. Feel free to share your guide, thanks.

  • I installed Firefox v7.0.1 and I wasn't able to figure out how to pin the bookmarks to the left of the screen as in earlier versions. Any idea how this can be done in v7.o.1? If it's not possible I'll have to stay with an older version or go back to I.E.

    no other details.

    Does that make sense to you, you're going to back because you can't use a new option so the tabs are the same as before.
    Right-click on a tab and choose "Pin as app-tab", and never do anything unless you know how to reverse it -- "Unpin tab" or delete the tab like any other tab.
    I would suggest you bookmark the tabs you want as app tabs into a folder, so that you can periodically recreate them. Do not include your home page in your app-tabs or you will have two copies at Firefox startup.
    Although I don't have a problem with them disappearing when I start Firefox, they always seemed like a potential problem over time. I use them but I often do start them over from a bookmarked folder so the are "clean" only one page per app-tab. Besides app-tabs can be accidentally closed like any other tab (use "Ctrl+Shift+T" to restore a tab, if you notice the loss immediately).
    * https://support.mozilla.com/questions/848046
    I would suggest installing "Multiple Tab Handler: it will make working with tabs, and app-tabs easier.
    More tips whether you like the new styling of Firefox or not see the first 60 or so items for things you can change.
    You can make '''Firefox 7.0.1''' look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered '''items 1-10''' in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 8.0, look like 3.6)]. ''Whether or not you make changes, you should be aware of what has changed and what you have to do to use changed or missing features.''
    * http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface
    <p>There is a lot more beyond those first 10 steps listed, if you want to make Firefox more functional.</p>
    <p><small>Please mark "Solved" one answer that will best help others with a similar problem -- hope this was it.</small></p>

  • Just Installed Firefox 6.0.2 And I'm Having Many Problems On Some Web Sites When Using Firefox:

    -When I click on a picture on some sites it will go to the next page with a large view of the picture and then when I go back one page to do the same with another picture (or even the same picture) nothing happens.
    -Videos don't show up or on some sites the videos do show up and work but you can't make them full screen. (YouTube works fine).
    -Sometimes I have to click "Reload" to get my saved codes to show up.
    -It won't let me log onto some sites unless I right click where it says "sign in" and click "open link in new tab".
    -In some Forums the tool bars, smileys, etc. don't work when using Firefox or IE9 and they worked before with IE9.
    -Some of my letters when viewed with IE9 are now in some kind of code (maybe html?).
    I never had these problems before when using IE9 alone!
    Java was updated before I installed Firefox and I installed the Adobe Flash Player 10 plugin right after installing Firefox. My OS is Windows 7 64-bit.
    Please Help. Thank You

  • Installed Firefox 3.6.6 and I could not load any webpages even the home page

    When I opened Firefox and went to the error console I was getting a bunch of messages. This is one of the messages.
    Error: Permission denied for (document.domain has not been set) to call method Location.toString on (document.domain=).
    If I could please get assistance with stopping these messages I would appreciate it.
    == This happened ==
    Not sure how often
    == After I closed and reopened Firefox after installing 3.6.6 update

    Well, this is kinda a generic solution of yours, cor-el. As I expected, disabling addons and entering safe mode doesn't solve the problem.
    This is a more or less wild guess: it seems the problem is with the couple '''newest Firefox + newest Flash update'''. I don't know who causes the problem, but the searches I made seems to also refer to Flash. As I have updated both recently, I cannot isolate one or another right now.
    In some web page, it seems that all of those who provide Flash content should make a change to their crossdomain.xml files. As I'm just the client, I don't see a workaround right now.
    My workaround right now: installed '''IE View Lite''' extension, and open these pages in Internet Explorer or whatever browser might work as expected.
    Will be more than happy if there's any available workaround for Firefox itself.
    When will those flash content pages finally reach the HTML5 nirvana? :-(

  • I recently downloaded and installed Firefox 3.6.8 and all of my bookmarks disappeared. How do I get them back?

    I recently installed Firefox 3.6.8 on my computer and had to reboot. When I did the reboot, all of my bookmarks had disappeared, all 30-40 of them. How can I get them back. Some are very difficult to get and almost impossible to find again. I am using a Dell with windows XP.

    Try the procedures in the [[lost bookmarks]] article.

  • Trying to install firefox crashed my system and windows will not start, (only BSOD) what should I do?

    I went to www.firefox.com
    I downloaded the software
    I went to my downloads file and double clicked to install firefox
    The file disappeared from the downloads folder and I got the blue screen of death. and my machine crashed
    Windows will not start anymore and keeps reverting to BSOD but I cannot read the failure code because the screen changes too quickly
    I'm sending this from another machine

    Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another install. Does it go through this time?

  • HELP! Without any prompting for such a download, Firefox tells me 'Thank You for choosing Firefox 4', & I have lost ALL of my bookmarks! I absolutely need to restore them, please please help. Not impressed at all!

    I am shellshocked.... so far I am not happy with Firefox's latest effort. When I first got this version, my 'saved tabs' function did not work, which I use regularly, and I lost vital site information with the update. I figured out how to fix this by changing a setting, and figured my problems were over.
    But NOW without any prompting from me, Firefox re-opened, having lost the tabs I had, yet again, and instead opened up two new tabs, 'Welcome to FireFox' (ty for choosing firefox4), and 'Mozilla Firefox Start Page', AND I have lost all my bookmarks!, WTF! Please help me to restore them, I have tried the help info provided, but they are still not restored :( Some of those treasured bookmarks, an extensive list, I will never get again, unless I can restore the ones I had. :( NOT IMPRESSED AT ALL.

    Ok this is bizzare!
    Thank you for your response, I went throught each and every step without any luck, even got the recovery programme, and painstakingly tried to sift through all that mumbojumbo to find what i needed. finally found the bookmark bit, but it had been fully overwritten :(, so on reading about previous ff versions, found the sqlite thingys, and they were relatively unscathed(partly written over, but saveable apparently TG), saved them to adiff drive, amongst other possibly good folders. Then looked up how to install them, and it said to close FF, and install to profile folder.
    So i tried to close FF, and the original problem from a few days ago, where it asked me if 'i was sure i wanted to close this window as it has X tabs open', popped up again. This is where 'open blank page' selection was set, over 'open previous tabs'. Wanting to save that info on how to sort out these friggin files, I reset the Option to 'open previous tabs', and closed FF. After unsucessfully searching for the profile folder on my laptop, i opened FF intending to search online for where i could find said folder.
    AND BANG, surprise surprise, the FF I had just closed with only tabs open about finding out what the heck to do, had disappeared, and instead my original saved tabs were up, and my bookmarks are there..... I am gobsmacked! what the heck just happened there???
    I have made 3 back up in different folders now, of those friggin bookmarks. I am weary now tho of shutting it all down.... what if its back to the other pages I had with no bookmarks, tomorrow :(
