I would like the downloads box back. Is there any way to get it.

Before when I was downloading something there was a separate small box like a separate page so even if I closed the browser the downloads would still continue the box would still be there. Now the download shows in the right had top of the page in very small print. So I forget I'm downloading and close the browser I lose the hole download. It doesn't even ask (like Opera) are you sure you want to close you will lose your download.

You can set the browser.download.manager.quitBehavior pref to 2 on the about:config page.

That will make Firefox ask for confirmation if you want to cancel the download when you close Firefox.

  • I have just installed Family Tree Maker 2012. It recommends use of Firefox 3.6, but that doesn't seem to be available from the download page. Is there any way to get this version?

    I currently use Chrome as my web browser and am not able to access the Ancestry.com website using it. Every attempt to sync my records fails and the manual suggests use of Internet Explorer or Firefox 3.6 However, the current download available is not 3.6 but appears to be Version 8...? (based on the first question on the Contact Us screen, which relates to having upgraded from 3.6)

    You are welcome :)

  • Ok so I cant open my Itunes due to Windows Error 2 and the message says to uninstall and re-install Itunes but I'm pretty sure that would wipe the library right? Is there any way to fix the problem and keep my library?

    Hi neffn!
    I have an article for you that can help you go through that process of uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes. If you have Windows 7, you will want to see this article:
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923
    and if you are using Windows XP, you will want to reference this article:
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925
    Note that, as it says in those articles:
    iTunes Store purchases or songs imported from CDs are saved in your My Music folder by default and are not deleted by removing iTunes. While it is highly unlikely that you will lose any contents of your iTunes Library when following these steps, it is always a good idea to ensure that your iTunes library is backed up. If you're unsure how to backup, see iTunes: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive.
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

    If you have a backup that contained what you deleted then restore from that backup.  Data you added since the backup was created will be lost

  • Just bought refurbished mac, and there's no GarageBand or iMovie and such. I got no disks with the laptop!! Is there any way to get these programs back?

    is there any way to get the programs back??!!??
    if not, are there any good free programs to replace these ones?

    I called Apple Customer Support (1- (800) 767-2775) to check on how much they charge for the gray restore disks that originally came with the MacBook and was quoted $16 dollars per disk plus S & H. Which would be $32 for the two disks. Just give them the serial number of your MacBook and they'll know which ones you need. With the original disks you also get the iLife that was current when your MacBook was bought included on the #2 disk.
    If you only want iPhoto or other single apps from iLife '11 you can get them from the App Store if you're upgraded to 10.6.8. iPhoto, iMovie or Garage Band for $15 each
    Or you can get an iLife DVD on eBay.  http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_trkparms=72%253A1234%257C66%253A2%257C65%253A12% 257C39%253A1&_sacat=0&_sc=1&_nkw=apple%20ilife%2011&_sop=12

  • I was burning an audio book and on the last of six CDs, the CD i entered had a problem. Itunes quit without burning the last CD. Is there any way to get it to burn just the last CD or do I have to re-burn all of them?

    I was burning an audo book to CD. It was six CDs long. After the fitth CD I inserted one that was defective and itunes just ended, as though
    the burning had been completed. Now I have five of the six CDs.
    1) Why did it do this instead of telling me I had a bad disk or something?
    2) Is there any way to get it to re-burn just the last disk instead of having to re-burn all of them?

    sure pretty simple.  make a backup of your current settings
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US
    then restore device from old backup you need pics off of
    then import pics to computer
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
    you may need to save pics to camera roll first
    then restore the new backup and sync pics back to phone via itunes
    Peace, Clyde

  • When I download something from the Web, the "Downloads" window opens, but the window remains blank. Before it used to at least show the name of the file and I could open the file from the "Downloads" window. Is there a way to get this functionality back?

    I'm running Windows XP which is updated to latest version (which I think might be Service Pack 3, but not positive.) Mozilla Firefox is version 5.0. I tend to use Google as my search engine so most of the stuff I download comes through sites found through Google, which is also updated.
    At some time in the past (maybe a few versions ago) when I would download a file from the Web, the "Downloads" window would open and in the window would be displayed the name of the file I was downloading or had just completed downloading. I think I used to be able to then click on that file name and the file (or the installation file if needed to start the new program) would open. I am currently using Firefox 5.0 (the "About Firefox" screen says this is up to date) and when I download a file or document, the "Downloads" window appears on the screen as it always has in the past, but it remains blank, i.e., nothing appears in the downloads box. I don't remember making any configuration changes, etc., that may have caused the window to remain blank, but I could be mistaken. I know how to find the items I've downloaded (My Documents / Downloads) and can usually guess what the name of the downloaded file might be, but it used to be much easier when something (anything) showed up in the downloads window.
    I'd love for someone to tell me about a simple fix for this. I'm willing to be quite embarrassed that I did something I shouldn't have.'''

    In Firefox Options / Privacy be sure "Remember download history" is checked. To see all of the options on that panel, "Firefox will" must be set to "Use custom settings for history".
    To find your OS information, on your Windows desktop, right-click the My Computer icon, choose Properties, under System on that small window is info about your OS.

  • FF 7.0.1 on Mac OSX 10.6.8: I sometimes get the "unresponsive script" dialog box in the top left corner of the screen, so far out that I can see only the bottom right corner of the dialog box. Is there any way of re-centring it?

    FF 7.0.1 on MacOSX 10.6.8 (not this machine!): I sometimes get the "unresponsive script" dialog box jammed into the top left corner of the screen so that only a quarter of it is visible.
    Is there a way of re-centring the dialog box (in particular, when its top edge is off the screen)?
    Thanks!

    There is no way to preserve view preferences.Just remember or annotate the zoom % used in the package.
    You may want to open an MS Connect item asking to add such a feature.
    I can tell you it may not be implemented because a package may be opened on different size monitors.

  • Of u get a differant computer becouse the the other one crashed is there any way to get the tv shows that i purchased back on the new computer?

    If you were to get a differant computer becouse the old one crashed is there anyway to get the stuff that i purchased back on my computer?

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.  Use this to put everything back.
    If for some reason you have failed to backup (not good), then you can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod.  Without syncing:  File>Transfer Purchases

  • After Upgrading to 10.1, all clips have lost the audio component.  Is there any way to get this back?

    I have recently updated Final Cut Pro to 10.1, after this upgrade (as well as an upgrade to Maverick) non of the video clips in ANY event or project have any sound component.  I have a backup of the project and event files before the upgrade, but I have no idea how I can get the clips back and if I do how I can update the numerous projects I have that no longer have sound.  Has anyone else had this problem, if so were you able to fix this?  Or am I just doing something wrong?
    The clips have no wave form when I look at them so it's almost like they have been stripped of sound.  If I goto the event browser and say reveal in finder, I am taken to Original Media, but these are tiny files that can't be played in VLC - they almost look like shortcuts or dynamic links or something...
    Can anyone help me get the adio back on these or should I revert back to a previous time machine backup and not update to 10.1?
    Thanks
    Richard

    Not sure what made the files lose the audio, but the solution for my issue was:
    In Final Cut, right click on a clip in the event viewer, Reveal in Finder
    Close Final Cut Pro
    Export orginal clips from Aperture.
    Copy exports into folder that the original meda was in, replace all
    Open up Final Cut Pro
    Load project again, it will start analysing the audio...

  • I had to purchase a new MacBook when my old one was stolen. We have two other MacBooks that use the ITunes library.  Is there any way to get the library transferred to my new computer.

    I had to purchase a new MacBook when my old one was stolen.  We have two other MacBooks in the family that use the ITunes library.  How do I get the full ITunes library on the new computer when I don't have access to the old computer?

    If your backup copy of the old computer was not stolen, then use it to put everything back.

  • All my downloads have vanished - is there any way to recover them?

    Today, I started downloading a file, and opened the Downloads window to check on speed. As I watched (and without clicking on anything after pulling the list up on the screen) the entire download history vanished, apart from the currently downloading file. Is there any way to get it back? I've tried searching for a deleted version of the places.sqlite file, but it seems it simply updated the existing file in deleting my data, and so there is no old version for me to use to recover my downloads. Note that my history is intact, with no problem there at all. But the download list is stubbornly empty. I've tried restarting the browser, but even that had no effect.
    I know about database expiration, and pruning away old data, but I lost literally everything, even things I downloaded ten minutes earlier.
    I am guessing that the download history is gone for good now, but I have to say it's not reasonable for a browser to act so destructively to user data without a specific user request, and without a way of recovering from the browser's failure.
    Why not automatically backup these important sqlite files in the same way as bookmarks etc are backed up? Very poor indeed.

    Are they removed from the Downloads folder in the Library?
    Also note the the downloads are treated differently when you are in private browsing mode and are only shown temporarily on the about:downloads page (this page works in both modes).
    Downloads would normally not be removed unless you would clear the downloads via the right-click context menu or otherwise clear (recent) history.
