I reset Firefox to speed up my browser and I got almost everything back that I car4ed about but my Adobe X Pro PDF button, how do I get that back?

Using Windows 7 Professional and Firefox Browser 34.0. I reset my browser to speed it up and got everything that I use but my Adobe X PDF button. The plug-in Adobe Acrobat 11.0.10.32 is there, but there is no way to get the button. Anyone have any ideas as to how I can get my button back? I tried the PDF add-ins from the add-ins page, but they are not what I am looking for. With the button I had, I was able to make PDF's of the webpage I was on and add to the PDF from a drop-down menu.

You don't say what OS version you have. Upgrading my 2.2G C2D MacBook Pro to Snow Leopard from 10.5 was the biggest speed boost it's had. US$29 well-spent! Part of that was the effect of a new (or fresh install of an older) OS. You can find a lot of info on how to keep much of the new-install "freshness" in performance in this list of OSX articles:
http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/faqs.html
Focus on articles with "maintain" or "maintenance" in the titles. Also look for articles there dealing with caches. A 2G cache file can slow things down and indicates your computer needs some maintenance that you can do without seeking professional help.
As for RAM, advising you to add RAM is hard without knowing your MBP exact model. The first C2Ds could "hold" 4 GB but only addressed 3.2G. The second generation of the C2D "officially" accepted and addressed 4GB of RAM but, with RAM modules developed subsequent to Apple engraving the specs in stone, can actually use a total of 6GB. Those models both have silver keys. The later Unibodies can handle even more.
So....do "About this Mac..." from your Apple menu and, in the resulting window, click the "More info..." button. That launches System Profiler. The first Profiler screen will very precisely ID your MBP:
The second line is "Machine Identifier." If that code is "MacBookPro2,1," 3G is your RAM limit. If the code ends in 3,1 or 4,1, your actual limit is 6G. If it is 5,1 or higher, you can do at least 8G. Let us know that Machine Id ncode and we can suggest the proper RAM upgrade.
Doing the maintenance suggested in the list of articles is a better place to start than spending money. IF those steps don;t get yo uan improvement, then consider the pay-for options.

Firefox v33 knocked out my Adobe 7 pro PDF printer plugin. PDFs print OK from other applications.

Firefox v33 knocked out my Adobe 7 pro PDF printer plugin. PDFs print OK from other applications. It happened a few times randomly, and it seemed to resolve spontaneously, but now it is persistent.
I've done scans for malware, which I suspected, but nothing showed up, nor corrected it with cleaning.
I had this problem before, and I found directions on how to rest the printer within Firefox, but I've forgotten how or where I got it.
I did try to re-install in control panel, but this appears to be a firefox issue. How do i rest the plugin or Firefox to once again print PDFs from browser pages. I need to use this feature printing receipts etc.

Are you using a toolbar button (Create PDF extension) or a printer driver (selecting Adobe PDF or Distiller in the Print dialog) to generate the PDF? Older versions of Create PDF have been reported not to work any more (by older I mean from Acrobat X or earlier), but the printing method should still work.

You can't get it reset; if you could there would be no point in having it. If you have an encrypted backup there are two ways this could have happened:
You checked "Encrypt Backup" in iTunes at some time in the past, either intentionally or by accident
You have a corporate MS Exchange account and your Exchange administrator installed a security profile on your phone that requires the phone'a contents to be encrypted. This, in turn, requires the backup to be encrypted for obvious reasons.
In either case you were prompted for a password the first time you backed up after whichever of these happened. So think about what you might have entered for a password at that time. Fortunately you get an unlimited number of tries. Other threads on this subject have shown that it is always a password known to the user, so it wasn't something made up by iTunes. Also, everyone who has figured it out has found it to be a different password type, so try your Apple ID password, your computer's login password, your WiFi password, your corporate domain password, etc. And try passwords that may have been changed since your first backup. As a last resort there is a professional password cracker available, but it isn't cheap - it's targeted at the law enforcement market - from Elcomsoft. There are also some scam password crackers available that don't actually work and possibly steal your information. It's likely that a developer of one or more of these will post a response with a link (possibly hidden) to their "product". So before clicking any links you might want to install the Web of Trust plugin that keeps track of scam sites and warns you. http://www.mywot.com.

Good to hear, Tom. Did you use "Customize" from the View Menu?

Firefox don't close when "browsing and Download History" is deleted on exit

Firefox doesn't close properly in about 50 % of cases. When closing FF, the window closes but the process firefox.exe isn't terminated. When trying to open FF again you got the error message "Firefox is already running, but not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system." After terminating the process firefox.exe in the windows task manager, FF can be started again.
Error only occurs when under "Options/Privacy/Use custom settings for history" at "Clear History when Firefox closes" the option "Browsing and Download History" is selected.
All other options selected or not don't cause the issue.
I switched this option it several times. When "Browsing and Download History" at "Clear History when Firefox closes" isn't selected, the error doesn't appear.
Reproducible regardless if "Remember my browsing history" and "Remember download history" are selected or not.
Reproducible:
- after new installation of Firefox (Firefox 29.0.1 german, Windows7 64-bit)
- with different profiles, even with all addons disabled or running in safe mode
- with new profile with no addons or dictionaries installed
- with windows firewall turned off and deactivated antivirus program
- with hardware accellaration on and off
I know the issue has already reported at bugzilla.mozilla.org and described at
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/997918
https://support.mozilla.org/de/questions/997670
I want to describe the problem more precisely:
It only occurs when "Browsing and Download History" is delete on exit. The other option at "Clear History when Firefox closes" don't cause this issue.
Is there any other solution then to turn "Browsing and Download History" off?

From what I have been reading from other posts on this forum, the issue may
be caused by the clear history settings.
Press the '''<Alt>''' or '''<F10>''' key to bring up the tool bar.
Then '''Tools > Options > Privacy'''.
The button next to '''History''', select '''Use Custom Settings'''.
At the bottom of the page, turn on '''Clear History When Firefox Closes.'''
At the far right, press the '''Settings''' button. Turn on ONLY '''Cache''' and
'''Form And Search History''' leaving the others off.
This is not a cure but will make it easier if Firefox locks up.

I reset firefox the next time istarted my computer I got dadamn~.exe error.

I did not do a good job of spell check sorry. I reset firefox, because it was slow and crashing. That was what was recommended in the help.
The next time I started my computer and every time after that, I get a datamn~1.exe error.
I do see a firefox folder on my desktop of restore items.
Thanks
Alma

That file is malware, delete it, its a part of the DataMgr malware.

Why can't I call and talk to a tech...firefox has been hijacked by "Yahoo" and I have tried everything on the forums...now I can't even redownload firefox...

Come on!!!
This is nuts...I need help and you have me going thru this...you're not going to solve my problem this way.

hello, mozilla is a non-profit foundation - their product is offered to you free of charge. so please accept the fact that they use their available funds primarily to develop and improve their product & there is no phone support offered. you'll have to cope with us forum folks ;-)

I used to have safari browser on my iphone but can no longer locate it. How can I get it back or download it?

I no longer have safari as my web browser and am unable to locate it. How can I load it back onto my iphone?

You cannot delete it.
It is likely on another page, in a folder, or you have restrictions set.
Check all of these.
If you do not find it, then reset your home screen layout.
All of this is covered in the manual:

Because I don't have flashplayer installed I can't view YouTube. However I recently installed Google Chrome as an alternate browser and can view YouTube. Does that mean flashplayer installed on my computer? Or is it self contained in Chrome? Thoughts?

Because of some of the "problems" associated with FlashPlayer and the drain on the battery I have chosen Not to install it on my MacBook Air. This does limit my ability to see any media video on a website and that includes YouTube. But I decided to live without it. (Although I don't understand why I can see YouTube video on my iPhone without flashplayer) To have an alternative web browser I installed Google Chrome. Once I did that I found I can now view YouTube videos. I thought "did I install flashplayer on my computer as a result of installing Chrome?". Since I wasn't able to find it with Finder it would appear I didn't. Then I opened Safari and tried to view videos at YouTube and was told I needed to install FlashPlayer.
Now I totally confused. Do I have flashplayer or not? Is it only contained inside Chrome? Are there any consequences to my computer? Am I ultimately exposing my computer to battery drain and potential slow down problems anyway? HELP! Thoughts and opinions will be greatly appreciated.

Well... one of the benefits to Chrome is that Flash is built in and automatically updates. I believe it only runs within the browser and it does not install in a traditional sense. It should not impact your system whan Chrome is closed.
You can also view many YouTube videos using HTML5 instead of Flash. HTML5 is a newer web standard that allows for viewing videos instead of Flash. YouTube has converted many of their videos over to HTML5. You can view them with FireFox and Safari (and Chrome if you like). Unfortunately, I'm at work and YouTube is blocked so I can't point you to the link for using HTML5 instead of Flash. This should be the right page:

My new computer has backed up Firefox bookmark files from my old computer on the new computer's desktop, but I can't open them ; also, how do I get this desktop file into firefox's bookmark list?

My old Vista computer died, but I had backup of my old Firefox .json bookmark files and installed this folder on my new window's 7 computer's desktop. But I can't seem to open these files (windows cant find a program to open them with, and I don't seem to have .json files in my file association list) or import them into the new computer's Firefox bookmarks list.

That's great, matthungo, I'm glad it worked and you've got your Bookmarks back. Wishing you and yours a wonderful and blessed Holiday season as well!

I accidentally clicked "do not ask me this again" about forcing an extension change when downloading. How do i get firefox to ask me this again?

I was using download helper and a box usually pops up that asks me if i want to force an extension change. I clicked the wrong box and then clicked "do not ask me this again". I would like to get the box back so i can change the setting.

This could be a setting in the add-on. In some cases, you can access an add-on's setting from its icon on the Add-on Bar. In other cases, you can access it from here:
orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Add-ons > Extensions category
Look for the add-on's "Options" button
Any luck?

I reset my I phone 4 last night and now it wont turn back on?

I reset my I phone 4 last night and it wont go on now. I have tried holding the home key and turn on button but nothing happens. Is there anything else I can try? Its less than a month old

Hi ...
In case it's the battery.. connect the iPhone to a wall outlet or a computer via USB then try restarting.
Restart your device: Hold the power button until "slide to power off" appears. Slide to power off. After it is off, press the power button to turn it back on.

MyStart-by Incredibar - How do I get rid of it. I have tried resetting Firefox in all ways ad infinitum, and all the other suggestions I can find. I

For the past few months I have been trying to get rid of MyStart by Incredibar. I have reset my computer to Firefox default, I have restarted Firefox with and without addons, I have searched with windows explorer and found and removed anything with incredibar and mystart and even file extensions. I am not particularly adept at understanding all the programming that constitutes the set up of my computer but with a step by step guide I can probably clean my machine. Please will someone help me just get rid of it.

In order to uninstall a possibly unwanted extension, please do the following:
#From the Firefox window click the Firefox button at the top left and select ''Add-ons'', or, if the Firefox button is not shown, click the ''Tools'' menu and click ''Add-ons''.
#Once the Add-on Manager has opened in a new tab, click the ''Extensions'' button on the left side of the window.
#You should now see a list of your installed extensions on the right side together with buttons on the right side of each extension.
#To remove an extension from Firefox, simply click the ''Remove'' button. You should see a message that informs you about the successful removal of the add-on.
#Note that some add-ons require a Firefox restart to be removed completely. To perform a Firefox restart after the add-on removal, click the ''Restart now'' link in the message.
You can find further information about uninstalling extensions in the following articles:
[[Disable or remove Add-ons]]
[[Remove a toolbar that has taken over your Firefox search or home page]]
