Restore Firefox bookmark backup doesn´t work (with firefox backup tool 1.0) Help :-(
Hello, i have a big problem with restoring my Firefox bookmarks and passwords with " Firefox Backup Tool" Its a "....fbk" file.
My laptop had some problems so i made a new system set up. Backup with "Mozbackup" didn´t work.( Error message) so i used "Firefox Backup Tool 1.0" for backup all my bookmarks. The program said "backup succesful" and i got a 12mb ..fbk file. But when i tried restoring it, it says "restore successful" but there is nothing in Firefox when i start the program and look for the bookmarks. :-( I tried it over 10 times and older versions.. Firefox 23 or 3.6 etc.... nothing works.
Can someone help me to get my bookmarks back? Or can i open the jpk file manually and copy it in firefox?
thanks.
Anna
Try open the file with NotePad
Click on the file with right mouse button then click on "open with" and select "notepad"

CS6 stamp tool doesn't work with action / record ( tool record is enabled ) other tools works
At one time tool recording was not possible and if you install Adobe Scriptlistener Plug-in Adobe will disable tool recording its never an option.
I use and record actions all the time and was looking forward to tool recording when Adobe announced it. However I found what they delivered was of very limited value because of the restrictions. I do not care that Adobe disables tool recording on my machine.
The amount of data that gets reordered seems also vary between machines. I found that Action recorded on fast machine are not usable on slow machine. Fast machine recorder too much data.
Documents you use such action on must also have the same size and resolution as the document you recorded the action on. Quite a restriction.
You problem may also be foxed in CC 2014 sett here Photoshop CS6 - Recording the clone tool in an action gives incorrect results on replay. -
Unfortunately any enhancements that you've made with FF5 don't outweigh the loss of my bookmarks in the Google Toolbar. How do I go back to FF4?
Install the following Add-on until Google releases a new version of their toolbar that is compatible with Firefox 5. Most Add-ons that worked with Firefox 4 should still work with Firefox 5, but the developers need to update a line in their Add-on's code to indicate with which versions of Firefox the Add-on is compatible. The following Add-on adds a "Compatibility" button in your Add-ons > Extensions that you may need to click after installing it and restarting Firefox.

Laptop Mouse touchpad doesn't work with Firefox 4
Previously in Firefox 3, I could use the touchpad on my laptop to middle click, and scroll. Now it won't work with Firefox 4. When I try to use the scroll feature it registers the mouse as scrolling, but the page doesn't move at all in Firefox. When I try to open a link in a new tab using middle click it shows the auto scroll but even then the orientation is wrong as well. When trying to close a tab using the middle click it shows the same left to right auto scroll instead. It works fine with a normal mouse, but with a touchpad it doesn't work at all. I have also tried using drivers to fix the problem, but that was not the issue.
well, if you stick to firefox 4, then i'd say, well, babylon in my memories, it offers a online prompt method of translation, supporting tens of languages, similar to google translate webpages, the url is http://translation.babylon.com/ you can keep firefox 3.x and 4.0 in the same time in your windows. firefox 3.x to 4.0 update is not compulsory, so use the one you feel good with.

firefox 26 doesn't work with comcast email. won't keep me signed in; won't show whole inbox in either full or lite; won't allow me to get to preferences; drop downs only work with arrows. I could just keep going.
Earlier this week they worked fine.Be sure to delete the login.comcast.net cookie, it is not near the other comcast and xfinity cookies.

Google toolbar doesn't work with Firefox. How to Fix?
The Google toolbar doesn't work with my current version of Firefox. When I went to update, the Google toolbar was removed and I can't get it back. How do I fix this so I can still use Firefox?
Google needs to update the Google Toolbar program for Firefox 5.0.
The Google Toolbar '''7.1.20110512W''' version does work pretty good in Firefox 5.0 by using the Compatibility Reporter extension. But not every feature works 100%.<br />

MobileMe preferences button and menu doesn't work with Firefox 4 on Mac OS X 10.6.6
When I login to my MobileMe account I have two buttons on the top right of the page: Preferences and My Account name.
Both I can select but when I do I cannot press either one of the menu entries that show. So I cannot change anything or create folders in iDisk for instance. All did work on Firefox version 3.6. It also works on Safari.
What settings do I have wrong? I like Firefox more than Safari.
Thanks.
FritsanderYou can install the portable Firefox 3.6.x version to access websites that do not work with Firefox 5+.

Window.close doesn't work with Firefox
I have used the code from the followinging reference on OTN to close my window:
Closing brower window
It works fine for IE, but not for Firefox. How can I make it work with Firefox?Hello,
I use a couple of steps to get windows to close in Firefox. Firstly, I set win=top and win.opener=top, as below:
function closeWindow()
win=top;
win.opener=top;
win.close();
But more importantly, you need to set a Firefox preference setting:
Locate your Firefox preferences file - in Windows XP/2000, the path is usually C:\Documents and Settings\[User Name]\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxxxxxxx.default\, where xxxxxxxx is a random string of 8 characters. Open the file prefs.js, and add the following line to the end of the file: user_pref("dom.allow_scripts_to_close_windows", true);
Which is a bit fiddly, but the best way I've found so far...

Personas rotator doesn't work with firefox ver 10.0.2
I am running firefox 10.0.2 and I downloaded personas plus and also personas rotator and tried to get rotator to work. I think I have a newer ver of firefox and don't know how to get it to work.
hello, firefox 10.0.2 is an outdated version of the browser - please [[Update Firefox to the latest version|update firefox]]!
personas rotator should work with the new version. in case you're having problems please consult the description of the addon at [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/personas-rotator/#addon-description]. -
Facebook doesn't work with Firefox 28.0 + Flashplayer 12,0,0,77
Hey everybody,
first of all let me tell you the specs of my system:
Laptop:
Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit
Acer Aspire 7745G Laptop
Intel i7 Q720 @1,6 GHz
4,00 GB RAM
Browser:
Mozilla Firefox 28.0
Flash Player Version:
12,0,0,77
Problem:
So the Flash Player and Firefox just updated like 1-2 days ago and after that Facebook didn't work anymore. As you might know Facebook just refreshed its design so I think that they're now using some kind of Flash for their layout.
Well no matter what Facebook is using, I only get a white screen with no Layout, here's a screenshot (By the way, I just get this error with the new Firefox, Chrome works with no problems):
In addition to that all other video streaming pages like youtube couldn't load its videos. Firefox always displayed this message:
I was waiting for about 10 minutes, after clicking on "Continue", then I closed Firefox by force with the Taskmanager.
This message always appeared when I was trying to watch a Flashvideo on Firefox, no matter which page (Youtube, etc.).
When I clicked "Stop Plugin" of course the Flash Player crashed. And it showed me this message instead of the video:
Reloading the page or clearing the Firefox cache didn't solve the problem. I also cleared the Flash Player cache in the Flashplayer and the Macromedia folder as it is described here:
http://helpx.adobe.com/en/flash-player/kb/flash-player-games-video-or.html#main_6__Remove_ Flash_Player_cache
So after that I deinstalled Firefox and the Flashplayer, reinstalled them and restarted my laptop.
Now the videos work fine, but Facebook still isn't displayed correctly, I can still only see the white screen which I showed you above.
This is how my plugins page looks like:
So brief summary:
Problem:
New Facebook + Flash videos doesn't/didn't work
What I already tried:
1. Reload the pages
2. Clearing Firefox Cache
3. Clearing Flashplayer Cache in the Flashplayer and Macromedia folder
4. Updating/Reinstalling Firefox several times
5. Updating/Reinstalling Flashplayer several times
6. After that rebooting Laptop
7. Testing Facebook on Chrome and it works in that browser, so either Firefox or Flashplayer is corrupt/faulty
Status Quo:
Facebook still not working
Videos now working on every page (after reinstalling and rebooting the laptop)
Please don't give me the advice to just change browsers, I have Chrome and it works, but I still like Firefox more and I would be very grateful, if somebody could help me solving this problem.
I tried to be detailed as possible, but if you still need further information feel free to ask me.
Best Regards,
KahzelOk, I solved it now. The problem was the Adblock plus Add-on which blocked all facebook contents.
I just tweaked the filter to allow all akamai.net content, then it worked.
So to sum it up Adblock Plus was the reason why noting worked, I don't know why the videos crashed though, but this issue seems to be fixed, too so I don't have any other complains.
So what did I do to come to this conclusion?
Disabled all Add-Ons
See if the problem still occurs
Activate Add-Ons one by one to see which one causes the problem
Look up why the Add-On is causing the problem and how to fix this
That's it. Thanks for reading my post -
When I try to open the Virtual Machine console I get the error:
Cannot access virtual machine console. The request timed out.
I had no problem with this until Firefox did an upgrade to 3.6 and now it doesn't work and I have to use IE to open the console.
I can see lots of other people have this same problem so am wondering when it will be fixed.Look at this blog post for some work arounds for the windows version.

Flash player doesn t work with firefox
hey every body
after a lot of tries ,the version 11.8.800.168 doesn t work properly
a good down load ,good installation without error message but youtube doesn t detect the plug in ?
i check and it s installed :just a remark :the plug in weights about 6 mo installed and i downloaded 16mo ?
and if i try with IE9 to compare:surprise the video is good but no sound
perhaps a good idea will arrive ,but it s not very easy
byeThanks for the assistance Chris. I tried the 11.7 option without success. I downloaded the 11.7 file, I closed all browsers, used the flashplayer uninstaller, restarted the CPU, installed the 11.7 (with auto updates disabled). Restarted Firefox, tested a Flickr video, same "no-play" results.
However, after doing the same thing and downloading the Archive version http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/installers/archive/fp_10.3.183.75_archive.z ip I was able to play the Flickr videos! WooHoo.
I completed the update process to the latest version, and now the videos play properly with the latest version!
Not sure what the bad actor was, the 11.7 version did not fix it, but the older 10.3 version did!
Thanks to all for the assistance with this pain in the arse issue.

yahoo comes up, then in switching to mail, the mail appears and I can look at each piece. However, the delete, move, and reply buttons are not responding. Also, I can't generate a new message. The system works fine with IE or Google Chrome.
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

See question. I'm assuming that I or them are missing something with the handshake once the basic appl is launched. The Changepoint appl does launch in the browser...it just doesn't function when you get into it, e.g. clicking on a hyperlink on the screen doesn't launch a sub-appl/module to show project folders. It doesn't crash the browser or window, it just doesn't do anything.
Check with Changepoint support and ask if that application is made to be compatible with Firefox, and which versions of Firefox it has been tested with.

Norton isn't supported on Firefox 4. I don't trust ANY web browser that I can't use Norton on. I had no complaints with it when I had Firefox 3.6. I want to reinstall 3.6 but can't. I have looked all over for a download but every one comes back to Firefox 4.
Symantec need to update their Firefox add-ons so that they are compatible with Firefox 4. They have indicated that for Norton 360 they plan to release an update to Norton 360 to support Firefox 4 in early May - http://us.norton.com/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20100720113635EN&ln=en_US
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
