  • Firefox fail to attach doc in email and asking for using classic uploader.Earlier therewas no such problem

    firefox fail to attach doc in email stating that it could be due to proxy or firewall and asking for using classic up loader
    This problem was earlier not existing
    This is not the problem with internet explorer

    You don't have to disable any addons or extentions!!!You guys are not going to believe this I figured out the problem it's really dumb...ok here goes the attachment uploader loads seperate so I got to thinking it's a popup so I went to options content and under block pop ups there is an option exceptions click on that and in the box type www.firefox.com and hit allow pow its fixed!!!!! :-)

  • When I click on the Mozilla Firefox internet icon, it cannot establish a connection to anything

    I cannot access the internet using mozilla. It has a error message that says that "Firefox cannot establish a connection to the server ... "

    See [[Firefox cannot load websites but other programs can]]. A common cause, as shown in that article, is a firewall blocking Firefox.

  • I am using Firefox 3.3.23 which works fine for me. Whenever I try a newer version, I find that I can read my email, but I am not allowed to send email messages. Is there a fix for this problem so I can switch to the latest version of Firefox??

    I am using a web-based email system maintained by my university, not gmail or yahoo or outlook.

    Firefox 3.6 needs the Java Second Generation Plugin which comes with newer versions than 1.6.0_03 - update Java, the latest version is 1.6.0_22

  • Accidently downloaded Firefox 5. Now cannot "Send link" in File. Why? What must I do?

    By accident Firefox 5 was downloaded, and I lost previous toolbar, one containing a link to Gmail.
    I tried to "send link" in File but nothing happens. Previous Firefox system worked just fine.
    What can I do to get back what I had? Can I undo Firefox 5 and return to previous, earlier version? How could I do this?

    I have now lost the two files:
    Spotlight/com.apple.spotlight.plist
    Spotlight/com.apple.metadata.mds.plist
    Cannot find them in the original Snow Leaopard disk. Any Ideas???
    I cannot find the Symantec files to delete because Spotlight and Finder are not working.
    Do you think I could copy the missing spotlight files from another MacBook pro?

  • Since downloading Firefox, I cannot send email attachments and upload files. How do I fix this?

    When I click on "attach file" or "upload file" I always get a message...."Firefox is not responding". Then I have to close the program and open Internet Explorer. I would prefer using Firefox,can you tell me how to fix this problem?

    I uninstalled Firefox, deleted all data, reinstalled and still have the same problem. I guess I'll go back to Internet Explorer.

  • Firefox with Earthlink Webmail; Cannot send functional links

    When using Firefox with Earthlink Webmail, a link typed into a message is not identified in print as a link, and does not operate as a link.
    Internet Explorer+EarthlinkWebmail: Links included in written messages function properly
    Earthlink support seems to know nothing of the problem and is unable to provide any solutions at all.
    I like Firefox very much and am displeased that I may have to go back to IE
    I would like to hear comments on this subject.

    This is likely a limitation of the JavaScript code used by websites to automatically create a hyperlink that works for IE and possibly Google Chrome, but doesn't support Firefox.
    In that case you need to look for a button on the button bar (toolbar) above the editor text area where you compose the new mail message to create a live, clickable, hyperlink.
    There is usually a button bar with buttons to format text like Bold and Italic just above the text area where you compose and edit the message text.<br />
    That toolbar may have a button to turn a text link into a clickable hyperlink (look for a chain like button).<br />
    You can select the link text and click that button to turn the link into a clickable hyperlink.<br />
    If you can't find the button then hover them all to check the tooltip of each (e.g. Insert hyperlink).

  • I can't send emails through Yahoo using Firefox. Already contacted Yahoo and they don't know why it's happening.

    I can't send emails through Yahoo using Firefox. Already contacted Yahoo and they don't know why it's happening.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == a month agao

    I also cannot send email through Yahoo using Firefox 3.6.8. I can receive emails and surf the web just fine. I have also contacted Yahoo and have gotten no where.

  • Why can't I send email when I upgrade to the latest edition of firefox?

    Firefox version 3.6.23 works fine, but whenever I try a newer version I find that I can read my email, but cannot send emails. Is there a fix?

    First of all, I'd like you to excuse my English. I'm Italian and I speak few words of English.
    I'm using Apple product since 1984. I remember very well the first machine I used, an Apple MacIntosh Plus! I've been always proud of my many Apple's products: computers, iPods, iPads, Apple Tvs and so on.
    Now I'm very sorry for what it's happening in these days (and never happened before!). Apple has released the latest version of iPad/iPhone OS (iOS 6) and Mac Os X (v10.8.2). The results are that I cannot sync my devices (iPhones/iPads) with iTunes. Every pictures I took during many years of activity disappeared from my devices.
    I'm expecting a new patch from Apple, but I'm very sorry because this great and glorious factory is now very similar to Microsoft ...

  • How do I stop Firefox from creating untitled web pages when I try to send email from a web page. The only way I have found is to turn the computor off and then reboot. I don't have this problem when using Internet Explorer

    Every time I click on a web site that has an email option the browser starts making untitled web pages and never stops unless I turn the computer off. It is very frustrating to not be able to use an email option when offered by a web site. The only way I can send email messages on the Firefox browser is to go into my hotmail acct. and copy and paste the addresses. I don't have this problem when I use the Internet Explorer browser.

  • I want to ask something about firefox. why firefox use very much memory? can you develop to reduce memory comsume? this problem is very distrub in my PC with low memory.

    I want to ask something about firefox.
    why firefox use very much memory?
    can you develop to reduce memory comsume?
    this problem is very distrub in my PC with low memory.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    How much memory is Firefox using right now?
    # Press '''CTRL+SHIFT+ESC''' to load the Task Manager window
    # Click the Processes tab at the top. (Click once near the top of the window if you don't see tab
    # Find firefox.exe, and see how many kilobytes of memory it's using.
    Showing around 80MB when Firefox first starts is normal. Right now, I have 75 tabs open and it's using 500MB - this varies a lot depending on what you have in the tabs.
    Other than high memory usage, what other problems are you experiencing? (Examples include slowness, high CPU usage, and failure to load certain sites)
    Many of these issues, including high memory usage, can be caused by misbehaving add-ons. To see if this is the case, try the steps at [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]. Outdated plugins are another cause of this issue - you can check for this at http://www.mozilla.com/plugincheck

  • When I click on a tab in the toolbar the tab flies off the screen to the right. Suddenly after using firefox for years I cannot load any pages

    I'm using Windows XP. I've used Firefox for years but in recent weeks I've had the following problem. When I endeavour to open an internet site the tab appears in the toolbar at the bottom of the screen instead of loading the page. When I click on the tab it appears to fly across the right of screen and disappears from view. Fortunately we've left an internet page OPEN so that we can redirect our search via that. Today we had a power cut and now I cannot get Firefox to load anything. At the moment I'm using Explorer to write this. We've made no changes to our system and we're continuing to use the same virus checker we're had for years. (Kaspersky)
    One last point. When I try to load any site in Links the tab changes to the correct name but then flies off as I've previously mentioned. When I right click on the tab and choose Max or Min I have no reaction. I've tried rebooting the computer and turning it off but this does not fix the problem. I've also uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled the latest version all to no avail. Please, can someone help? Micam

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
