No reset option in about:support (firefox 32)

at about:support there is no option to reset firefox to it's default state. this option should be available in the upper right hand portion of the screen on this page.
When I restarted firefox in safe mode the only option on the dialog box was to start firefox in safe mode, there was no option to reset firefox. This option should be contained in said dialog box.
Is a deliberate change for firefox 32? Has my client has been altered in this respect? Is there another way to reset firefox to it's default state? If removal and re-instillation of my client becomes necessary, what will the easiest way to preserve my bookmarks be(is there an automatic feature or will I be manually copying them from my preferences folder)?

You only see the reset button on the "Help > Troubleshooting Information" page if you use the profile that is marked as Default=1 in the profiles.ini file.
If you do not have the "Reset" button then either use the Profile Manager to create a new profile or use the Profile Manager to start with the current default profile to get the Reset button in Firefox.
You can use the Profile Manager to create a new profile to check if your current profile is causing your problem.
See "Creating a profile":

*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.

Hello Pllumb,
It sounds like you are unable to turn on Wi-Fi because the option is grayed out in Settings. Use these steps from the following article named:
iOS: Wi-Fi settings grayed out or dim
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1559
Restart your iOS device.
Make sure that airplane mode is off by tapping Settings > Airplane Mode.
Reset the network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
This will reset all network settings, including Bluetooth pairing records, Wi-Fi passwords, VPN, and APN settings.
Make sure that your device is using the latest software. To do so, connect your device to your computer and check for updates in iTunes.
If you still can't turn Wi-Fi on, please contact Apple for support and service options. If you can turn Wi-Fi on but are experiencing other issues with Wi-Fi, please see these steps.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

Hi my daughter did some changes in the settings,now i am getting voice support for every task i do,i am not able to access anything cause unable to toggle down to the reset option,pls help as to what to do

hi my daughter did some changes in the setting,now i am getting voice support for every task i am doing,plus cannot toggle between the pages,unable to do the changes as not able to toggle to reset option either,pls help.

You probably have the Voiceover accessibility feature turned on. It's difficult to navigate as you need to use specific voiceover gestures. The easirest thing to do is connect the phone to iTunes. Select the Summary pane and click the "Configure Universal Access..." button. In the window that opens,select "Neither" in the seeing options and click "OK".

How to fill out the clipboard under "about:support" when enter button does not work in address bar? Thearrow button does not work either?

My enter btton does not work in the address bar or search engine. I have done the restart in safe mode...deleted and reinstalled firefox...done the malware/adware checks...still no improvement.
I was asked to do the "about:support" then click enter for the clipboard to paste the system notes into. That is not an option however because the orginal problem is the enter button not working. Ideas?

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem.

My bank website doesn't support Firefox 4. How can I return to the older version of Firefox?

I called my bank and they said that I need to use an older version. How do I do this?

To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.
For details of how to find your profile folder see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles
An alternative approach is to keep Firefox 4 and install the portable version of Firefox 3.6 on your hard drive. The portable version will be totally independent of the main version and can be used when you want to access the bank site. You can get it from http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable

I am college student and my professors require we use Turnitin however Turnitin does not support Firefox 4 how can I get it to work with Firefox 4 or how can I return to Firefox 3

The Turnitin system requirements on mention Firefox 3. If it does not support Firefox 4 you can downgrade to Firefox 3.6

About:Support in nightly doesn't allow you to restore to default

When I go to about:support with Firefox Nightly, there is NO option to restore everything back to the default, basically getting rid of everything you had installed, but not bookmarks, history, and a couple of other things.
Is there a way, besides doing it manually, to set Firefox Nightly back to default settings like you just installed it? I'm enclosing the troubleshooting information below, but I really don't think that this will help. I would really appreciate any and all help concerning this matter.
Thank You.

Yes, I already done that. I set it up that way! This is how I run the NIGHTLY:
"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\Nightly\firefox.exe" -P "David - Nightly" -no-remote
As I've mentioned, I haven't seen anyway to set the Nightly back to the default settings (like when I first installed it - I've done this with the Beta, Aurora and Release Candidate. They are all installed in DIFFERENT Directories and the profiles associated with each one. Can ANYONE tell me how to get Firefox Nightly back to the original settings, without using the Safe Mode or manually disabling everything. I would appreciate any and all help.
Thank You.

Password reset option in Portal

Hi Experts,
I would like to integrate password reset option in between help and logout option in masthead.
The issue is:
1.how to integrate a link in Masthead which on clicking enables end user to reset Password?
2.is there any coding that i have to do for password reset?
Thanks Inadvance!
regards,
Siva

Dear Siva,
I will try to address your questions as best as I can.
But what you're asking is too much I'm afraid.
It seems you're needing to learn the basic concepts of Portal development first.
And explaining all those concepts on a forum post is simple impossible.
Moreover, the component you're trying to develop is not an easy one to start with.
My advise to you is to first read some manuals or attend a few SAP training sessions on the
subjects:
- JAVA development
- JSP development
- Developing Portal components
Nevertheless, and trying to answer your questions as best as possible, here's some tips that I
hope can guide you the right direction (and again, if you don't have the basics, you
might not understand part of it):
I have been through above wiki, its not indetail.
Yes It is.
The wiki shows you just what you need - the code.
It is not a "how-to" develop a portal component. It assumes you know that already.
I could not understand where to start from?
You need to develop a Portal Component on your NWDS (Netweaver Developer Studio).
On you NWDS go to
File > New > Project.
And inside that box, choose: Create a Portal Application Project.
Now you need to create the Portal Component.
Go with your left mouse button on the project you have just created and choose
New > Other > Portal Application > Create a new Portal Application Object
I would suggest JSPDynPage (here you can choose to create a JSP, Bean and a Java main class)
Where do we find the 1. portalapp.xml, 2. Implement the Bean, 3. PasswordChange.java, 4. PasswordChange.jsp, 5. Success.jsp, 6. Redirection.java?
You need to create all those JAVA and JSP objects yourself.
The bean is a JAVA class that you need to create as well.
The portalapp.xml is a file that is automatically created by the NWDS when you create a Portal Project.
Provides configuration information for your application - it is like a "business card" of the application itself.
And that "business card" will be presented to the Portal when deployed - saying "hello, I'm a Portal application
and this is what I have inside".
You can learn more about this XML file here:
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/44/489e2df5ee4e35e10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm]
Hope this helps you.
Good Luck!

Questions about supporting TLF with Halo components in Flex 4.1

We recently decided to upgrade to the Flex 4.1 SDK after a year or so at 3.2. We have been asked to not use the new SPARK components yet because our products would then have a mistmatch of Halo and Spark components in the UI. We have built support for our Halo components to display html through the ".htmlText" property for the Text components. For example, we can display strings such as "<p>Choose <b>one</b> option:</p>". With the upgrade to Flex 4.1 a couple of questions about supporting bi-directional text have come up. My understanding is that in order to support bi-directional text we need to use the Text Layout Framework. Does anyone have a suggestion on how we can utilize the TLF with the Halo components in Flex 4.1? Can we still use the ".htmlText" property somehow or is there a new property that understands the TextFormat markup? We would love to still be able to use the limited html tags that are supported for the "htmlText" property. Is there an option where that syntax is still understood?
Thanks in advance!
David

The halo components use TextField, and the spark components use TLF. Both sets have support for some html markup to import and export text. To use bidi text, you have to use TLF; TextField won't work properly.
It is possible to use TLF to build your own components, and this can work well particularly for applications with specialized needs. But if you need bidi support for advanced components like DataGrid and List, then you should use the spark components.
Thanks!

No audio-manufacture does not support firefox-won't help me

after several years with Firefox I lost my audio and when I phoned for support from the manufacturer (Toshiba) they said they do not support Firefox. I have to use internet explorer. I can get audio when I do that but I preferred Firefox.

I do not think that I am in private browsing mode. There is not a note in the top blue bar indicating that I am, and under Tools, the "Stop Private Browsing Ctrl+Shift+P" option is grayed so I can't chose it. I also cannot use the keyboard shortcut that it indicates. All of these factors lead me to believe that I am not in private browsing mode.

Direct2D is still labled as false in about:support.

Password Reset Option

I have tried to register the password reset option in Sun Access Manager 6 2005 Q1 by giving the bind name/password for the same in the am console under services>password reset.
However, when I log in using my ID at the following url:
http://amserver.com/amconsole
(where amserver.com is the webserver where access manager is deployed)
and try to set a password hint, I get the error - "Unable to Set Attribute".
When I check the directory server logs, i see the error "cannot find attribute iplanet-am-password-reset-hint"
I have installed the Sun Java System Enterprise Edition and have installed Directory Server 5.2 and Access Manager 6 2005 Q1.
Is it possible that the password reset option is a part of the Identity Management Suite which is the reason why I am unable to use it with ONLY access manager and directory server?
Please - any help would be great on this one.
saahil

Hi,
I was able to set the password reset questions using the user profile page after adding the following two classes to a user's entry.
iplanet-am-user-service
iplanet-am-managed-person
I have also defined the Bind DN in the "Services" section for password reset - with a user with rights = directory manager.
However, when i open https://hostname/ampassword and enter my user id, I receive a "User is not active" error!
Please advise how to go about this.

I have recently installed firefox 4. it is wonderful. small problem is i cant get to use real player to download flash player files (like u tube for example) although the plug inn in the real player setting supports firefox. thanks

You had to have some kudos for the effort put in to your thread as week as the point you make.

You can try recovery mode to see if you can revive the iPad.
