My downloads are gone after I close Firefox

My downloads used to stay on until I removed them myself from the Download list. Now as soon as as close Firefox they disappear. I have the History settings to clear the history after Firefox closes but in the Settings for Clearing History I only have checked, Browsing History and Cache

Hi co-rel,
I don't have a sidebar to clear my history. I have a bar with on top with
File- Edit -View- History- Bookmarks -Tools -Help
Under History I have: Show all History, Restore Previous Session, Recently Closed Tabs and Recently Closed Windows. I just went to Show all History and deleted it. The downloads were deleted too.
Under Tools I have the Clear Recent History which also deletes the downloads.
What do you mean by History Manager? Like I showed in the pictures above, I have gone to Tools -Options-Privacy-Use Custom Settings for History
Clicked on Clear History when Firefox closes-Settings and only checked Browsing History and Cache boxes. Still the downloads were deleted. Is there any other way that I am missing to go to the History manager?
So far the only way for the downloads to stay is by going to Tools -Options -Privacy and choosing Firefox will: Remember history

HT5957 where have my downloaded apps gone after iSO 7

help? where have my downloaded apps gone after iSO 7

Hi vernica,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
There are a couple of things you can try to resolve this issue.
The first would be to restart and/or reset the iPhone.
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
Next, perform a Spotlight Search for one or more of your apps to see if they may be been moved to one of the other 5 home screens.

The iPhone User Guide for iOS link below will show you how to reset your Home screen layout on page 23.

After I close Firefox I am unable to reopen, I get a message that I can't reopen until I close it, but it is already closed. This is happening almost every time I close Firefox. I have to restart my computer in order to open Firefox.

Same problem here thinking to move away from firefox now

My group tabs are lost once I close Firefox. According to the NY times article of April 21 2011, these tabs are supposed to stay on your browser after you shut it down.

Are these group tabs supposed to stay on your browser ?

I have the same problem. As soon as I close Firefox and start a new session, the tab groups are gone. And No, "clear history" is not checked in my settings either. Please fix this - this is a great feature and I would love to use it! (Running FF 4.0 on Win Vista, 64 bit system.)

Firefox 15 keeps on downloading YouTube videos after I close the video page

Since I have the last Firefox 15 update, I noticed Firefox keeps on downloading the video on YouTube after I close the video page or when I go back to previous page and this until the video is over. This did not used to happen with Firefox 14, so I installed Firefox 14 until this problem is fixed.

The Shockwave and Java applications may need 'PLUGIN UPDATE' for newer versions. Suggest a check for any outdated PLUGIN UPDATE found from the Mozilla Firefox Toolbar 'Help' Menu > 'Firefox Help' > [lower right margin displays link to more info to review and 'UPDATE PLUGIN's!

Hi,i just update my iphone for a new software but after i update all my apps and music,movie that i download are gone.what i am going to do?i want all that i download will comeback to my iphone.

how to install again those apps,music that i download to my iphone because its all gone after i update.

unfortunately if you have not backed up your iphone, the only way you could do it would be to sync the songs back on to your phone through your mac. Or if you purchased the music from the itunes store you can download it again free of charge.

How do I get my tabs to stay open after I close firefox?

Every time I open Firefox for the first time after turning on my computer, my tabs are gone. I have my settings set to show my windows and tabs from last time, but that only works if I haven't turned off the computer in-between opening Firefox.
I'm not sure if this is related to the problem, but I have to re-login to everything as well. My cookies and usernames are saved, but every time I open Firefox after turning on my computer I find I've been logged out. These both started at the same time.
I even re-installed Firefox to see if that would help. It made no difference. Please help.

If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: Firefox > Quit Firefox; Linux: Firefox/File > Quit)

How can I retrieve my most recent tabs after I close Firefox?

This is not a new problem for me - it has been going on for months and months, and I have wasted countless hours looking for a solution - so I decided to post a question on the forum, and hope for the best.
The Problem: Whenever I close Firefox, it loses my most recent tabs, and there is NO way to get them back.
Here's what I have tried:
1. I set Firefox to automatically resume my previous session at startup. ( I did this a long time ago, and have not changed it since. ) When I restart Firefox ( without modifying the sessionstore.js file first ), I get an old session with all 5 of my tab groups present, but with two of them empty.
2. Before restarting, I right-click on sessionstore.js, select Properties, click on the Previous Versions tab, click the latest Restore point, and apply. ( The latest restore point is always at least a week old. ) Now, sessionstore.js shows a size > 1000 KB. When I restart, I get the "embarassing" screen. Clicking Restore gives me exactly what was promised - the set of tab groups that I had over a week ago. This is the best I can do. It does NOT have my LATEST tabs.
3. Before closing Firefox, I copy the sessionstore.js file from my Profile folder, and save it in a seperate folder on my desktop. ( This should contain any new tabs I just opened today, no? ) Then I close Firefox. Before restarting, I copy & paste the copy of sessionstore.js that I just saved into my Profile folder. When I restart, I get exactly the same results as in #2. The tabs I just opened today are gone.
4. When I searched Mozilla support, I came across this page: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-restore-my-tabs-last-time?esab=a&as=aaq . It said "Note: In order to get your tabs and windows back from the previous session, you should close Firefox from the menu:
At the top of the Firefox window, click on the Firefox button and then select Exit." When I close Firefox in this manner, it makes absolutely no difference - the results are the same.
5. A page in Mozilla support also suggested using the plugin Session Manager. I tried this, and all it does is make it easier to go through steps #2 or #3 - the results on restarting are the same.
6. I tried writing a "Bug" to submit to the Mozilla developers, but it's way over my head!
I can't believe that this is the way things are supposed to happen. Surely other people are having the same problem!

Thanks jscher 2000. I guess I didn't make it clear. "It restarts with all the addons activated, and resumes with the tabs that were open before closing it." IE, it's running fine now with all the extensions activated. Everything is OK now.
So something in the Firefox code was causing the bad behavior. It's not essential that I find out what the problem was - I'm just curious. And if anybody else has this same problem, it might be nice to have it corrected at the source.

Seems like my Control or Alt keys are "on" after browsing with Firefox and I have to control-click or alt-click on the desktop to set things back to normal

After a browsing session using Firefox, my system behaves like either the Contol key or Alt key is stuck "on". For example if I start clicking icons on my desktop, each one is highlighted and "added" as if I were holding down the control key while clicking on each one (thus selecting all the icons). If I physically press the control key and click, then click again without the control key down, the system then behaves as normal.

Use "Firefox/File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit") to close Firefox if you are currently doing that by clicking the close X on the title bar.
Start Firefox in <u>[[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.

Settings are gone after restarting computer

After I'm restarting my computer my settings are gone. I'm not sure if all of them, but this is what I need to change:
- all toolbars are enabled (in standard setting I don't have everything on all the time)
- my start pages are not the same
- FF behaviour after restart is not the same
- my default download directory is not as it was before.
What is more - if I'm closing FF and then opening again without restarting my computer - everything is fine. It is just happening after I'm restarting my computer. It is like some settings are removed after restarting ...
It start happening after upgrade ...
What's more - I'm usually putting my computer in stand by or hibernate mode, so it can be caused by that. I'm restarting computer only if needed ...

This just happened to me again. And I do not understand the reply you gave me. I just want all my tabs & groups back. Can you tell me in less technical terms how to fix this?
