Mozilla FireFox 0.8

I would like to see arch with the upgrade of mozilla-firebird 0.7
the new mozilla-firefox 0.8 since this is the best open source browser.
I dont like epiphany or any other browser.
and congrats arch for this GREAT distro

Ok. bah too :-)
But there is one problem that some people (like me) may experience after upgrade from mozilla-firebird to mozilla-firefox. If you installed previously some extensions for mozilla-firebird than you may get this message:
"Error launching browser window:no XBL binding for browser"
just after starting mozilla-firefox. The browser will not work. That's because some extensions are "incompatibile" (like tabbrowser extension). Solution waits here :-)
http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox … sions.html
UPDATE: Please, be warned that the new firefox may really not work with some previous things from firebird. This is from mozilla site:
It should not be necessary to create a new profile when you upgrade from a previous version of Firefox providing you do disable all extensions from the prior version before upgrading. To do this, open the old version and open Tools > Options and click the Extensions panel. Click on each of the extensions listed and choose Disable Extension. Click OK to close the Options window. Now it is safe to install Firefox.
Once you have installed Firefox, check to see if there are new versions of all of your extensions that are compatible with the new version, and install them. In the future this process may be automated.
If you enable an extension from an older version of Firebird or Phoenix and it causes problems, run the older version of the browser and disable the extension, then run the newer version again.
If you encounter strange problems relating to bookmarks, downloads, window placement, toolbars, history, or other settings, it is recommended that you try creating a new profile and attempting to reproduce the problem before filing bugs. Create a new profile by running Firefox with the -P command line argument, choose the "Manage Profiles" button and then choose "Create Profile...". Migrate your settings files (Bookmarks, Saved Passwords, etc) over one by one, checking each time to see if the problems resurface. If you do find a particular profile data file is causing a problem, file a bug and attach the file.
So you should consider waiting for the newer version of firefox if you put a lot of customization work into firebird (this version seems to be released in a little hurry e.g. there is still firebird logo instead of new firefox logo in help/about mozilla firefox - but remember that it's still "technology preview" so it's normal ;-)).

Problemas com o Adobe Flash Player no Mozilla Firefox

Olá,eu estou tendo um problema muito irritante com o Adobe Flash Player,mas apenas no Mozilla Firefox,oque acontece? bem vamos por partes para "você" ou "vocês" entenderem:
Eu tenho um jogo de browser chamado "Dead Frontier" ele é um MMORPG e não precisa ser instalado no computador,apenas requer o Adobe Flash Player e o Unity Web Player...pois bem,jogo esse jogo a anos no Mozilla Firefox,nunca tive nenhum problema como este...que parece ser impossível de se resolver ao meu ver...
Vamos lá,tenho algumas imagens que podem ajudar a entender o que está havendo:
Qual o problema?na página inicial deste jogo sempre se executa um vídeo trailer do próprio jogo,mas de uns tempos pra cá(questão de 1 mês ou mais que isso começou)vem aparecendo esta mensagem no lugar do vídeo(sim tive de usar o paint,para facilitar os detalhes):
http://i.imgur.com/IfmyJdq.jpg
Enfim,isso veio do nada,assim sem mais nem menos,o que eu fiz?várias coisas,desinstalei o flash player várias vezes e instalei de novo,verifiquei se o Mozilla estava atualizado(e estava e ainda está),FORMATEI o computador para ver se dava um fim nesse maldito problema que já está me deixando maluco,no fim das contas,nada disso resolveu,recorri a vários fóruns,até recorri ao fórum do próprio Adobe,e eles parecem não conseguir resolver isto...
Vamos aos pequenos detalhes que observei deste problema,sempre que vejo vídeos(do youtube) ou jogo este jogo,percebo alguns ruídos,"som travando" por pequenos períodos,eles não ficam o tempo todo,mas se repetem....e isso irrita,e MUITO....
Percebi este pequeno símbolo lá em cima,no canto esquerdo da barra de endereço do site,um pequeno aviso triangular cinza,dêem uma olhada(só aparece neste site,este pequeno aviso triangular):
http://i.imgur.com/CZQ8dw0.jpg
Seria esse o problema?e se for,como resolver?
antes de mais nada,vou adicionando mais coisas antes que falem,sim já desativei o adblock pra ver se resolvia,nada,sim tenho o javascript atualizado,Flash player atualizado....pra vocês verem de tudo que eu ja tentei,isso parece ser uma missão impossivel...repito de novo,o computador foi formatado recentemente....
Já testei isso em outros navegadores,como o IE,chrome...isso não acontece com eles,o video executa normalmente,o som sai limpo,sem nenhum ruido ou qualquer travada...mas sempre tive minha preferência pelo Mozilla Firefox,como já disse,sempre joguei este jogo no Mozilla mesmo,nunca aconteceu isso....nunca mesmo.
Enfim,relatei meu problema,espero que alguém entenda e consiga me iluminar aqui,por que sinceramente,já estou cansado disso,estou quase desistindo...sério mesmo,já tentei tudo....a solução até pode ser simples,mas a dor de cabeça está insuportável.
Obrigado pra quem teve a paciência de ler tudo!

During the installation of Mozilla Firefox 4.0 on Windows Vista, I received an error message saying that I need administrative privileges to install. Are administrative privileges necessary to install Mozilla Firefox 4.0 on Windows Vista?

The happens when I attemp to install Mozilla Firefox 4.0 on a classified network. Initially when I try to install Firefox 4.0, a screen comes up saying that I need administrative privileges to install. Then when I cancel my logon username/password administrative screen, the installation process lets me continue and I can install the Firefox 4.0 software. I would like to know if Firefox 4.0 might encounter problems later on a classified network if Im able to install the software initially.

hello, when this is happening after you've already updated firefox with your admin account, try to delete the ''updates'' folder and ''active-update.xml & updates.xml'' within the %localappdata% folder of your restricted account like it is described in http://kb.mozillazine.org/Software_Update#Software_Update_not_working_properly

Adobe Flash Player 12.0.0.77 not playing in Mozilla Firefox 27.0.1

I am using Windows XP. I downloaded Adobe Flash Player 12.0.0.7 and installed it on my computer. I opened Mozilla Firefox 27.0.1 and went to youtube to watch videos. I clicked on a video to watch and received the following information:
The Adobe Flash Player is required for video playback.
Get the latest Flash Player.
I opened Control Panel on my computer and saw that Adobe Flash Player is indeed installed. So why is Firefox not recognizing it?

I opened Firefox, clicked on "Tools", clicked "Add-ons", and noticed there is a "Shockwave Flash 12.0.0.77" listed. Is that the adobe flash player?
Yes, it is.
It is set on "never activate" - because when I have it on, I get a computer page stall from time to time, and a little window pops up saying, "Warning: Unresponsive script, A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete."
See: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/warning-unresponsive-script for a few suggested solutions.
BTW, "script" errors are not the same as Unresponsive plug-in errors.
The former are caused by javascript, ASP script or PHP scripts (in the page code) malfunctioning or "locking up".
The latter are caused by a defective plug-in (like Flash Player).

Adobe Flash Player 12.0.0.77 will not install on mozilla firefox 27.0.1

I am using Windows XP. I downloaded Adobe Flash Player 12.0.0.77 and installed it on my computer. I opened Mozilla Firefox 27.0.1 and went to Youtube. I clicked on a video to watch and received the following:

I opened Control Panel of my computer and saw that Adobe Flash Player is indeed installed. So why is Firefox not using it?

It seems to work in my system. However, to get a reasonable answer you should ask in the Flash forum and not this one.

Is there a way from where I can restore my profile from a back-up that I took from a folder (e.g \Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\)

Before re-installing Firefox 19, I mistakenly took backup of my profile from a folder - C:\Documents and Settings\garan14\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles and not from C:\Documents and Settings\garan14\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles.
While installing, I selected "Delete the old profiles" option and I don't see any old profile folder under C:\Documents and Settings\garan14\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles.
However, I have a lot of important data saved under that profile which now has got deleted.
Is there any way I can still restore the data from old profile? (P.S.: As mentioned above, I have a back-up of profile folder which resides under Local Settings folder)
I am in a desperate need for the help. Pls reply as soon as possible.

i have some problem. i delete firefox profile and i cannot use mozilla right now. can you help me ? thank you

I AM STUCK WITH MOZILLA FIREFOX / NOT SHOWN ON MY LAPTOP SCREEN / USING HUGE AMOUNT OF RAM IN GENERAL - CAN YOU HELP????

Hi,
I have copied these problem on you site, as I could explain better then what they did, wich my problem remain the same as they have. And part me explaining what is really happen to my Laptop.
''Mozilla/Firefox 4 will not SHOW on my computer SCREEN.
Firefox won't load onto my computer. I have Windows 7, and each time I try to run the program to install it, it tells me I have another version still waiting to be installed that requires my computer to reboot. When I check "yes" to reboot, my computer reboots but still no Firefox. When I try to uninstall the the old Mozilla program from my Control Panels, there is no Mozilla files or programs listed not in my list of programs but when I go directly to the Windows File on the C: Drive, there's a Mozilla program file there. WHen I go into that file check, I attempt to open the uninstall program. I get an error message that says something to the effect of: "the version Mozilla on this computer is not compatable with my OS." Something about it being and 86bit program. My Firefox 3.6 worked fine 2 days ago. What's wrong??? ''
'''Firefox 4 using huge amounts of RAM on sites with Java scripts
I have been observing Firefox using huge amount of RAM when I am on sites that use Java Scripts to rotate images. I have tried a couple of different sites and have monitored the RAM usage. With Java script enabled Firefox 4 continues to grow its RAM usage by about 10MB a minute. I have had the usage hit as high as 1.5GB. As a comparison I have monitored the same sites in Internet explorer and have not seen the same issue. - Just to eliminate a site issue.
Turning off Java Script solves the issue and eventually frees the RAM.
I am using XP Pro, 3 GB RAM. '''''
My experince with Mozilla Firefox:
Here what really happen when I install the Mozilla Firebox on my La[top you can see the file is there but when I click the program to open its does not shown on the screen but when I check with WTM (Windows Task Manager) its shows that is ON and you can only witness the laptop going very slow and I have to reboot it, and I can not install any other Mozilla :( because of the same problem and all the above.
I really need Mozilla to work as soon as possible due to important deadlines I have pendent, and i can only use Chrome but is not my ideal program. Can you help me , please ?????
Thank you

If it opens in safe mode, you may have a problematic add-on. Try the procedure in the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article.

A program called pc keeper has attached itself to my Mozilla Firefox, and I am no longer able to use it. Even uninstalling and reinstalling is a no fix.

Yesterday I discovered a pop-up attached to my Mozilla Firefox, it was essentially a white box, with a grey bar inside, which I dangerously clicked as it would not allow me to close or access my Mozilla. Clicking the box revealed an ad for something call PC Keeper which now also shows in my remembered links as being in a second window. I was forced to shut down my computer to close the Mozilla, making all my links unavailable to me, and ultimately had to uninstall it from my computer. I attempted to reinstall a new version, but, again found this PC Keeper attached to it, it's white window firmly locking everything up, and forcing me again to uninstall the program. Please, find me a way to once more have my Mozilla without this PC Keeper.

You seem to have an idea that a virus will break your laptop, which isn't true. Viruses do not cause physical damage to a computer, anything they do is software related, all of which can be undone.
I think that you may be leaving your Firefox profile intact when you uninstall Firefox, is that true? Are you checking the box "Delete user data" when you uninstall Firefox?
Don't just give up, this is something we can resolve if you will just work with us :) and i promise, your computer will not be damaged and you won't have to buy a new one. I've spent 6 years removing viruses and never had one so bad a computer had to be replaced

Firefox will not open on my computer, even after reinstall, with no error message or when I try to run "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -p. Help?

I recently installed firefox so I could use an adblocker. It installed just fine, and it worked just fine for about three days. Then yesterday it stopped opening. I'm on a Toshiba running Windows 7. The icon highlights when I click on it, but then it stops and won't open the browser at all. When I try to run it with the manual command "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -p, I get the error message, "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\ refers to a location that is unavailable. It could be on a hard drive on this computer, or on a network. Check to make sure that the disk is properly inserted, or that you are connected to the Internet or your network, and then try again. If it still cannot be located, the information might have been moved to a different location." I installed it to that location, and I don't need a disk. I'm connected to the Internet just fine and my other browsers (Chrome and IE) work the same as always. But they're swamped with ads and I really was happy wih Firefox when it was opening...how can I fix this issue?

Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
Please report back to see if this helped you!

I have Mozilla Firefox and Adobe Flash Player 13 Plug-in won't allow me to watch YouTube videos

Up until last week I had IE9 and was able to download and watch YouTube videos with my son and play Facebook games. Then one evening I tried to pull up a Yo Gabba Gabba video on YouTube and the video window was blank. I had watched this video the night before with him, and the only thing I can think of is there was a Flash Player update that tried to download. I saw several posts that suggested downloading a new broswer, but I waited for 3 nights thinking it was just a glitch. I finally gave up and sent a pm to one of my friends who is a Internet Service Technician. She told me to download Mozilla Firefox, which I did, and the problem seemed to be solved. I was once again able to download and watch YouTube videos, as well as play games on Facebook. And it seemed my pages, pictures, etc. all downloaded 10x faster. That worked until the next evening and suddenly I once again could not download and watch YouTube videos.
I checked my system and it found that Adobe had done an automatic update so that instead of just having Adobe Flash Player 13 Active X I now had Adobe Flash Player 13 plug-in. I also noticed that Adobe Air was downloaded on my computer. I went in and uninstalled the Adobe Flash Player 13 Plug-in and I was once again able to download and watch YouTube videos. But when I tried to play games on Facebook I was told I would need to install at least Adobe Flash Player 10.0.2. I went to find that or an older version but each time I tried to download from Adobe I would get the Adobe Flash Player 13 Plug-in version, and once again I was unable to download and watch YouTube videos. I was, however, able to play the games on Facebook again.
Remember when I just had Adobe Flash Player 13 Active X I was able to do both while having Mozilla Firefox. I have looked all over the internet and I cannot find recent articles that talk about this problem. Can someone please tell me what I can do so that I can keep Mozilla Firefox, as it is 10X faster than IE9 and with Firefox my Facebook doesn't crash all of the time? But I also want to have the ability to download and watch YouTube videos with my son, as well as the play games on Facebook.
I should also note each time I went to uninstall Adobe Flash Player 13 Plug-in I received an error message saying there was a conflict with Mozilla Firefox and I first had to shut it down before the uninstall would proceed. Also, I received a reply on Adobe's Facebook page from a Tech who had me check to see if I had the latest version of Flash Player. I did have the most recent version. He then asked me to go to my add-ons and enable Shockwave. I followed the instructions and it was already enabled (or it said always activate). Neither of those helped me be able to download and watch YouTube videos. But I can still play Facebook games.

How do I enable some scripts to run in some programs/websites and what happened to the status bar of my Mozilla Firefox 4?

Well, first of all, I was tying to create a web-based computer game in Notepad in H.T.M.L., C++, and JavaScript codes. But when I tried to open the completed product, Firefox only came up with a blank page. What do I do with this? And also, I unwittingly removed the "Status Bar" on the bottom side of my browser(the one that always says "Transferring data from/to..."), and when I tried to bring it back up, I couldn't because I don't know how, since I'm new to Mozilla Firefox 4. If you could help me with these problems, Then I would greatly appreciate it.

You can install the Status-4-Evar extension to regain some functionality from previous Firefox versions that was lost with the removal of the Status bar.
Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout" after you have installed the Status-4-Evar extension and drag the items (Status Text, Progress Meter, Download Status) upon the Add-ons Bar (View > Toolbars > [X] Add-on Bar)<br />
Also check the Options of Status-4-Evar in Firefox (or Tools) > Add-ons

A fix for the Mozilla Firefox SSL Certificate Validation Security Weakness vulnerability? This appears to be an issue with not revalidating certificates when loading HTTPS pages from cache.

We have to close vulnerabilities for PCI & Cybertrust certification. We have upgraded users running Firefox to version 7.0.1 but we are still receiving the message: Mozilla Firefox SSL Certificate Validation Security Weakness. Researching the issue, it appears to be related to certificates not being revalidated when loading HTTPS pages from cache. The bug report I found is:
Bug 660749 - Firefox doesn't (re)validate certificates when loading a HTTPS page from the cache

cookies.squite answer is Today at 5:15 PM .
New profile, same problem.
We've already established it is not a add-ons problem but obviously there will be less add-ons in this new profile to help exclude.
Since there is two PC profiles on the PC, I tried the second profile, same problem. Used the RESET FF function on the second PC profile...same thing...even followed the instruct for uninstall &re-install...same problem.
(3) different virus scanners, no hard core problems.
Suspect how I have something in Windows setup that no one else is using?

User is getting pop-up message for JRE6 installation with browser IE8, 9, and 10 and also with Mozilla Firefox 22, but it’s failing with latest version of Mozilla Firefox23,24 and 25.
I have gone through so many sites but could find any reason for this behavior.
I have provided JRE6 32-bit version download URL, here I don’t think so I’m doing any version incompatibility because both the JRE6 and Mozilla Firefox are 32-bit version. And 64 bit Firefox version is not available for windows.
I’m not sure why the code is working with Firefox 22 and its lower version but
doesn’t work with higher version than firefox22….like 23,24,25
Can anyone help to sort out this issue?
Thanks, <br />

Sorry for the delay in getting an answer, yesterday was a holiday in the USA.
This forum is for Firefox user support, not for web developer support. My rough guess is that since Mozilla has blocked all but the most recent update for Java 7 Plugins - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/blocked/ - and Firefox 23 brought in a new '''Simplified interface for notifications of plugin installation''' - http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/23.0/releasenotes/ - that is probably why you're having a problem with versions of Firefox after Firefox 22.
Try posting at the Web Development / Standards Evangelism forum at MozillaZine. The helpers over there are more knowledgeable about web page development issues with Firefox. <br />
