In the previous Firefox, I could bring up a list of pages viewed within a tab, so could quickly jump back several pages, but I can't find this now.

You can get the drop down list by either right-clicking on the back/forward buttons, or holding down the left button until the list appears.
If you want the drop-down arrow you can add it with the Back/forward dropmarker add-on - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker

In the latest two updates you can only go back one page at a time, previous versions allowed you to jump back several pages by choosing from the twistie - any suggestions?

The arrow to open the tab history of the Back and Forward buttons has been removed in Firefox 4 and later.
Use one of these methods to open the tab history list:
* Right click on the Back or Forward button
* Hold down the left mouse button on the enabled Back or Forward button until the list opens
You can look at this extension:

Hi All, can anybody tell me where to find the little 'down arrow' next to the "back one page" browser icon (upper left of screen) that let you jump back several pages at once? Thanks

I used to be able to view (and click one of) the last 8 or 10 visited pages using a dropdown box activated by a 'down arrow' symbol between the 'browse forward and backward' icons in the top left of the screen if a webpage led me down a blind ally and I'd have to browse backward several pages to get back to my starting point. (Or more annoyingly wouldn't allow you to just go back), but with the new firefox vs I only seem able to browse backwards one page at a time. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

To get the drop-down history for a tab without an add-on, you can do one of the following:
*right-click the Back/Forward button
*HOLD down the left-click on the Back/Forward button until the list appears

Why the heck did Apples think it had to change everything around in iTunes. If it's not broke, don't fix it. Can't find anything now.

Why the heck did Apples think that they had to revamp everything in Itunes.
What was on the left is now on the right side. It wasn't broken, why did you have to fix it? Where is Home share hidden?

Show side bar. Now that's better, thx.

The older version allowed me to save all open tabs by giving it a name, i.e. April 29, but I can't find it in the new version. Is there anything like it available? If so, I really want it back

Tonight, for example, I have many tabs open which I'd like to close but re-open tomorrow.
I'd like to save them all as "April 30" in my Bookmarks... the 0ld version allowed me to do this, but I can't find this in the new version.
The only way I don't seem to lose those open tabs I'm working with is by doing "Contol + Delete", but I know this shouldn't be done all the time...
There must be a better way, but if there isn't, would I be able to get back and work with the old version?

Please click the '''Helpful''' button next to the answer that solved your Firefox support issue, '''when you are logged in''', so this thread gets marked as '''Solved''' to help other users who may have this same problem.

What happened to the quick browse button (down arrow) that use to be by the back button for quickly moving back several webpages?

The old Firefox used to have a small arrow button next to the forward/back buttons. When clicked it would show the entire browsing history making it easy to jump back several pages. Now it seems to be gone. I have only used the new version for a day and already I am tired of having to click back one page at a time. Was the quick navigate button moved or was it taken away?

This feature is still available, simply right click on the back button, and select which page you would like to go back to, just as before.

I've noticed that in the new version of Firefox that you cannot save multiple tabs at one time like the previous Firefox 3.6.or so and I wanted to know if I can find that feature again?

In the previous versions of Firefox when you went to you Bookmarks menu it gave you the options to either Bookmark This Page 'command' + 'D', Subscribe to this Page, Bookmark All Tabs 'up-arrow-key' + 'command' + 'D', and Organize Bookmarks 'up-arrow-key' + 'command' + 'B' however in the newest version of Firefox there is no Bookmark All Tabs so you can bookmark all the tabs that you have up in one window at a time. So I need to know if it is possible that the feature is now in a different place, is gone altogether, or if you can get that feature another way?
For me personally and my work I go through hundreds of web pages a day and save around half of those so it is imperative that I be able to bookmark more then one tab at a time because I can't be bothered to bookmark every single page separately and then go through hundreds of tabs in my Unsorted bookmarks in order to sort those bookmarks. It is simple inconvenient to sort every bookmark individually that is why the previous version of Firefox with the Bookmark All Tabs button was superior in its convenience.

Right click any tab and choose "Bookmark All Tabs".

When I attempt to open firefox an error message appears telling me that firefox is already running, but I can't find it running. How do I do so or in any case close the already running Firefox process?

When I attempt to open Firefox instead of Firefox opening, an error message appears saying "Firefox is already running but isn't responding. To open another window please close the existing Firefox process or restart the system.", but I can't find that process of Firefox in order to kill it, and after restarting the system there is still the problem. I have found an emergency fix to at least get online, and that is to use"Firefox_Profile_Manager" in the start menu's "run" start menu, but the
Firefox that then opens is that one doesn't carry over what I had in my bookmarks but starts bookmarks anew.

Sounds like it is hanging when you exit and later try to restart Firefox.

Double-click on a page causes Firefox to jump back a page instead of highlighting at the insertion point

I have a Logitech iFeel MouseMan. The side button is set up for double-click. Sometimes instead of highlighting at the cursor position the tab jumps back one page. (That is, it acts as if I had clicked the back button at the left of the address bar.) This anomalous behavior does not happen if I physically double-click with the mouse's left button. This anomaly happened about a year ago and a Google search turned up a Firefox configuration setting that fixed the problem. Now I can't find that setting and a Google search provides no answers. I solved the problem by resetting my computer to an earlier reset point, but that is an inelegant solution -- and it takes hours. (The problem is not happening now. I ask for the future.) I would prefer to make the problem go away by changing the appropriate Firefox setting. Logitech told me that the problem is not with the mouse nor its software, but with Firefox and that I should ask Firefox experts.

Thanks for your response.
I guess I didn't revert to as far back as the change I had made because when I follow your instructions, no entries are bold.
Or did you perhaps mean the next time the problem occurs I should look for a bold entry? And then change it back to what it was? (All that I recall from a year ago was that I changed one entry from ''true'' to ''false'', or vice versa.)

1.can't find live chat 2. Firefox recommends updating, but I can't find entrance to the sequence to do this

I have scrolled thru all the Firefox pages I can fine...nowhere can I find where to access live chat.
Also have a message my Firefox version is outdated...but I can't find where to install a newer version

There is no live chat anymore, it was stopped for now to increase emphasis on the forums.
To update Firefox, you will simply need to click on Help on the menu bar on the top of your screen (Where it says File, Edit, View, etc), then go to "About Firefox". Then click "Apply Update" after it finishes downloading. Your Firefox will restart, and you'll be up to date :)
read [[Updating Firefox]] for more information.

In the previous Firefox, I could bring up a list of pages viewed within a tab, so could quickly jump back several pages, but I can't find this now.
