Images downloaded using firefox (android) not recognised properly - cant attach pics for mms

Hey
I have been experiencing a problem on my HTC one x where images downloaded through firefox for android will not behave properly in my phone. Attempts to attach pictures to text messages are met with a pop up saying "unable to attach media".
Inspecting the details of these pictures in the gallery app showed that the file type field is blank (hence being unable to attach it to a mms, another symptom is that gifs display as a still image of the first frame of the gif).
Inspecting these pictures using a file browsing app shows that they all have the correct extensions for their file type. Renaming the pictures (without changing the extension) within the file browser seems to fix the problem - their file type shows up correctly within the gallery app, pics can be sent via mms and gifs become animated.
I am only experiencing this issue with firefox, the same images downloaded with different browsers all work perfectly - i dont have to rename them to get my phone to recognize them properly.
The problem may have something to do with the method that firefox uses to download files - every file i have downloaded using other browsers shows up in my phones stock "downloads" app, while files downloaded through firefox do not (it keeps its own list within the app itself)
Any ideas as to the cause of this problem?

Talked with a co-worker. This is https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=842037
The workaround is to long tap on the image and select share and then choose message.

    How do I access websites that warn: "Firefox is NOT compatible with this application. For best performance, please use Internet Explorer 5.0 and above...."? When I try to download any alternate browser, all I get is another warning that the alternate is "not compatible with your operating system." Is Firefox preventing this? The site listed below is a job application site. I've had this same problem with other job application sites also.

    There should be a User Agent Switcher menu item under Tools, which gives you the browser names you can impersonate.
    The menu item name changes to the browser UA you are presently using.
    There is also a User Agent Switcher button, you can add it using View -> Toolbars -> Customize, and dragging the button to your toolbar.
    See http://chrispederick.com/work/user-agent-switcher/features/ and http://chrispederick.com/work/user-agent-switcher/help/
    You can just start trying IE versions (or the versions it says on the site) until it lets you in.

  • Error 633: The modem (or other connecting device) is already in use or is not configured properly.

    Hi all,
    I recently got that a new USB CDMA modem which works fine on Windows 7 system but when I try connecting to my other laptop which runs on Windows 8.1, it keeps giving the error:
    Error 633: The modem (or other connecting device) is already in use or is not configured properly. I've most of the links and solutions shared but none seems to work. I've generated diagnostic logs which are as follows. I interpreted some and most probably
    it seems like an issue of incompatible driver, but does anyone else sees any issues in these diagnostic logs. Looking forward to your suggestions.

    Hi,
    We could get more information about your problem through this log. While, for your problem, first of all, it would be better to contact USB Modem manufacture to confirm its compatibility with Windows edition.
    After that, make sure its driver was upgraded to be latest.

  • Satellite A200: Modem has an error 633: already in use or is not configured properly

    My notebook is A200-FE0.
    When I tried to make a dial-up connection, there is an error window says:
    "Error 633: The modem (or other connecting device) is already in use or is
    not configured properly".
    When I test my modem by clicking query modem on the Diagnostics tab in the modems tool in
    Control Panel, the modem responds normally and appear to be working
    correctly.
    When I test my modem by using the Toshiba diagnostic tools, it shows "pass" and I canhear the dail tone too.
    I tired to uinstall and reinstall the driver twice.
    But I just can't make a dial-up connection and keep getting the error 633. I am really upset about it.
    Please help me! Thank you a lot!

    Thanks for the hint.
    I tried this method too. I am using windows vista home premium. I can't find the files named telephon.ini and tapiini.exe in my computer.
    I noticed that this method is only for windows 98 and windows ME.

    Bryan,
    You can download both at the same time.
    But you may wish to start off with one and use it full time, then download the other later, so you get the maximum possible time with both.
    If you have trouble getting the free trial on the Adobe site, you may try here or here:

  • ITunes download using Firefox on Windows 7 64-bit does not work

    I just got set up on a new Windows 7 machine (64-bit) at work.  I was trying to download the iTunes exe file to my machine and was initially using Firefox as my browser.  After multiple attempts to save the file were unsuccessful, I decided to try a different browser.
    I popped over to Chrome and it downloaded with no problem.  I thought I would share in case anyone else runs into the same issue.

    This has worked for some of us but not all. Go to control panel and uninstall itunes and icloud, restart pc, go to apple site and download itunes and icloud. Good luck.

  • "insufficient data for an image" error using Firefox 3/Reader 9

    I find some PDF files won't open in Firefox (3.0.3), giving the error "insufficient data for an image". usually the first page displays (partly garbled), then when I try to page down, I get this error. The PDF files are fine -- if I "Save as" they open without problems and they open in IE6.
    The problem is not consistent: the same file will open at one attempt and not at the next (and vice versa).
    Anyone come across this problem?
    Thanks, Jim

    The same error occurs in Google Chrome and even in the actual reader itself when trying to open certain PDFs. Adobe is almost impossible to contact directly and there are few clues as to how to resolve this issue on their website.
    Not only were there "insufficient data for an image" errors, other errors also displayed, sometimes resulting in freezing the browser and forcing a Ctrl, Alt, Del / end program procedure.
    An uninstall and reinstall of Adobe 9 did not resolve the issue. After discussion with another user who did not have Adobe 9 installed, and was still using Adobe 8, it was clear that the issues surround Adobe 9. This was uninstalled and replaced with Adobe 8 and so far all documents that did not previously open now open without a problem.
    While one cannot with certainty verify whether this solution works with Firefox, it is clear that Adobe 9 has a number of issues. Backward compatibility may be one of them. Documents constructed to display on older readers obviously create problems for Adobe 9. An interesting point is that even with Adobe 9 installed, by uploading the direct link to the PDF in question to Google Docs, the document displays without a problem within Google Docs itself, though a download of the same reproduces the same errors as outlines above.
    So in summary, try uninstalling Adobe 9 and install Adobe 8. NB: it is advisable to close all browsers before initiating the new install to enable browser integration.
    Good luck.

  • Firefox will not run properly now

    I really need help getting my Firefox to run properly. Earlier this evening I downloaded the epub reader addon from the Firefox addon website. After that I noticed my Firefox was using yahoo as the search engine instead of Google. I've tried the obvious set it to Google but it kept going to Yahoo. I also uninstalled the addon but it still kept searching on Yahoo. So I searched for solutions online. Then I tried the Help>Troubleshooting Information Restart Firefox. This when all the problems began.
    Now every time I go to Google.com or search on the Google toolbar I get the This Connection is Untrusted message

    Also when I go to certain websites like the mozilla firefox add on website it will not load properly

    Can anybody help me with this? I've tried the obvious options like uninstalling and reinstalling but my Firefox refuses to perform normally. Also I still have the old Firefox Data. Is there a way I can restore that data?

    Check out why the site is untrusted (click "Technical Details to expand that section) and if this is caused by a missing intermediate certificate then see if you can install this intermediate certificate from another source.
    You can retrieve the certificate and check details like who issued certificates and expiration dates of certificates.
    *Click the link at the bottom of the error page: "I Understand the Risks"
    Let Firefox retrieve the certificate: "Add Exception" -> "Get Certificate".
    *Click the "View..." button and inspect the certificate and check who is the issuer of the certificate.
    You can see more Details like intermediate certificates that are used in the Details pane.
    If "I Understand the Risks" is missing then this page may be opened in an (i)frame and in that case try the right-click context menu and use "This Frame: Open Frame in New Tab".
    Note that some firewalls monitor (secure) connections and that programs like Sendori or FiddlerRoot can intercept connections and send their own certificate instead of the website's certificate.
