After right clicking the Firefox Icon, a window pops up above the icon with three sections in it. Two are titled, they are "Frequent" and "Tasks."
The "Frequent" section each time I see it, has added previous sites that I have visited. This list then has lots of duplicates in it. I do not need that, and would like to keep this listing a a favored few.
Is there a way to stop having superfluous web-sites added to the "Frequent" list ??

Why do some web pages not display correctly in Firefox?
When I go to certain websites the text formatting in Firefox comes out to where hyperlinks and lines of text are displayed on top of one another but the same site is formatted properly when I load it in Internet Explorer.
You may have zoomed the page(s) by accident.<br>Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems.

If you have made changes to Advanced font settings like increasing the minimum/default font size then try the default minimum setting "none" and the default font size 16 in case the current setting is causing problems.
*Tools > Options > Content Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)
Make sure that you allow pages to choose their own fonts.
*Tools > Options > Content Fonts & Colors > Advanced: [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
It is better not to increase the minimum font size, but to use an extension to set the default page zoom to prevent issues with text not being displayed properly.
You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:
You can reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
*Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
*Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
*Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
Clear the cache and cookies only from websites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
*Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

My IMac turns off unexpectedly in both Mac & Windows mode. I've repaired disc and permissions using the Snow Leopard install disk and cleared the cache without help. Any ideas how to prevent this?
The HAT test detected no problems. Perhaps one of the peripherals, e.g., the backup disk, is causing the problem. I'll try to run the MAC without peripherals for a few days and see what happens, unless you have other suggestions.

I just downloaded the latest version of firefox (5.0). Can I delete all the older versions that are still on my drive?
When I call up some web sites sometimes the web site comes up 3 or 4 times...how do I stop this from happening? For example if I click on a link the exact same link comes up 3 or 4 times and I have to manually delete all of them but one.Do you organise your email into separate folders, or do you just let it accumulate in the Inbox?
I would strongly advise you not to let it sit in the Inbox.
When you see this happening, try right-click on the affected folder, select '''Properties''' then '''Repair Folder'''.
Large folders (actually, a folder in Thunderbird is stored as a file, so it is sensitive to file size limits set by the underlying file system) can be problematic. This is one reason not to let messages collect in one folder. I use Thunderbird's Archive folders so that accumulated mails over several years can happily coexist because they are effectively stored in many small folders. No single mail store folder then exceeds the 2GB or 4GB sizes that have been known to stress the OS. I appreciate that current builds of Thunderbird and a modern 64-bit OS should be able to cope, but practically I find it slows down when given huge files, so I err towards a pragmatic solution; a large number of not very big files.
Archives are searchable, and a Saved Search folder can give you a virtual composite folder allowing access to the entire Archive. -
After connecting to a web site and completing tasks, I use back button too return too Firefox main page. After using back button to get back to the original site log in page the back button (after repeated uses) will never get me off the web page and back to the Firefox main page. At this point the only way too get back too Firefox main page is too shut down Firefox wait 60 seconds and restart Mozilla-Firefox.
Some web pages are coded to redirect you forward to another page. In that case, when you go back to the page, Firefox redirects you forward again.
To bypass this, use the history drop-down next to the back and forward buttons. The drop-down has the most recent pages on top, and older pages below. Jump as far down the list as you can, then repeat as needed to get back to the first page.
Does it work? -
The web pages (tried different web sites) are not being displayed but the line at the bottom of the screen indicates that I am indeed on the web site. Previously, before I downloaded the the nerw version of FF, displaying of the web pages seemed slow unless I ensured by cursor was "off" the space on the screen that shows the web page.
I have checked with another browser and the web sites I went to are working and are displayed in that browser.Could be that you need to clear the cache.
''Ctrl+Shift+delete''
'''Deselect''' info you wish to keep (such as Active logins, site preferences, history, and session)
Try 4 hours, then today, then try everything.
Then try reloading the page(s).
May also try opening your command (run > cmd) prompt and type :
ipconfig /flushdns
ipgonfig /renew
leave space between command and parameter -

Firefox closes "Save As" window on some web sites when downloading
On some web sites, such as Scribd or PC World, Firefox will quickly force shut the "Save As" window when downloading. It happens so quickly that I barely have time to see the "Save As" window. The same web site on IE will not cause this to happen. I have done a web search and tried several of their tips, but the same thing happens on Firefox when I try to download from those sites. This problem started in Firefox 3 and is continuing in Firefox 4. Adjusting settings in or disabling AVG Internet Security does not work either.
Only security software (probably anti-virus software or the firewall) would show such a message if it was a Windows message, so you can check it there.
If it is a message from a Firefox extension then see this:

Some web sites not working in FF but they are OK in Safari.
A couple of times lately I have had web sites not work correctly with Firefox. I need to switch to Safari to complete the tasks I needed to do. My FF is running on Mountain Lion and is up to date.
Thanks,
MJTHello michaeljt, the sites you have problem, is it with a lot of flash content ?
Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
To clear cache and cookies do the following:
#Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
#Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
#Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
#From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
#Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.
Please reload the webpage while bypassing the cache using '''one''' of the following steps:
*Hold down the ''Shift'' key and click the ''Reload'' button with the left mouse key.
OR
*Press ''Ctrl'' + ''F5'' or ''Ctrl'' + ''Shift'' + ''R'' (Windows and Linux)
*Press ''Command'' + ''Shift'' + ''R'' (Mac)
See if this helps solve the issues you had and please report back to us!

Some web-sites won't let me in, or send me in loops.
I hope this is the correct place to post this question. I have developed a problem with some web-sites that won't let me in. They used to, and I don't really know when the problems started, and it is only some sites. Most are well-behaved, and the same comments apply whether I am using Safari 3 or 4 or Firefox, so it doesn't really seem like a browser problem tome... more a system/set-up problem.
I am currently running OSX 10.5.6 with all the most current updates applied. My machine is a 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo iMac, with 4GB SDRAM, linked to the web via a Dynamode router, using a wired Ethernet connection. My wife is running a slightly earlier Intel iMac through the same router... I mention this point as the problems I am asking about do not occur with her machine).
The problem is this, and occurs whether I am using Safari 3 or 4 (my 'preferred' browser), or Firefox. Certain web sites let me in so far, and then either throw me around in loops, or just refuse to take any input on certain pages. Particular ones are
www.emusic.com I choose 'Login' on the 'Start Page', which takes me to the 'Enter Login Details' page. I enter my login details and click 'Submit' and am then thrown back to the 'Start Page'.... which then produces and endless loop...
www.which-local.co.uk I enter my login details on the 'Start Page', click "Login" and am thrown back to the 'Start Page' to enter my login details again... this is again an endless loop...
www.royalmail.com I work through the sequence 'Personal Customers'/Sending mail overseas/Airmail/Buy online now/Overseas and weight/Country(Oman)/Airmail Small Packets - Buy and Print/ Enter login details and Login - Print your postage/Complete the address - Continue... and I'm back to the 'Buy Online Now' page.(Although this latter one is a longer sequence, it is very similar to the other two... there are others... one lets me get to a certain page, then will not accept any text entry on the page.)
www.apple.com I log-in with my Apple ID, and get sent to the Set Up Your Account page (which contains a blue link that would let me cancel my account. I quit there, and go back to the log-in page... just can't get in... unless I do what I havedone to enable me to write this query... that is, to restart under Safe Boot... which is a lot of fuss to get into the forums.
With all these sites, if I do a Restart and a Safe Boot (Shift Key) then the problems all disappear. And as I said earlier, the problems do not occur when I use my wife's machine. This implies to me that there is something in my set-up that is causing the problems, and which is disabled in Safe Boot.
Under OS 9 I would then have gone to the control panels and done a binary search with restarts until I had isolated the process that was causing the problem.
I have deleted Intego Firewall, and Intego Virus Barrier. They are the only major items that seem possible culprits, and which have never been installed on my wife's machine (which runs only under the built-in OSX Firewall that is configured exactly as mine is, allowing access for specific services and applications... among them Safari and Firefox), which seems to have no problems. This doesn't seem to have helped - (though they have been involved in other problems in the past, which have then been resolved). I can think of no way that I can identify what is interfering with both browsers in this way. I have both browsers configured to accept cookies, and not to block pop-ups, as each of these has caused problems with other sites in the past!!.
So where do I go from here!!?It still sounds like there is a problem with cookies being set. Since you were previously running a virus scanner, did it do something with the cookie databases, such as change their permissions? Don't bother with repairing permissions from Disk Utility, it does nothing inside a user account - for that, you would need to use the Reset Password utility from the OS installation disk.

Web sites are not in color, what to do?
The only information I have is that when I downloaded Mozilla Firefox a year and a half ago, no web sites are in color, including mine. I've searched and asked and dug and given up. Now, I need Firefox to be functional.
Hi judithleedew,
First question I have to ask is are your other applications in color? Have you tried Safari? Is that in color? If none of your programs are in color, it's a system issue and you have better luck at the Apple forums.
If you are sure it is only Firefox, I'd try starting Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If you don't have the issue while all of your add-ons, extensions, and themes are disabled, you can try adding them back in one by one until you find the culprit. You should look at the [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting-extensions-themes Extensions and Themes troubleshooting guide ] and the [[Troubleshooting plugins]] article as well.
You could also try [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Managing-profiles?s=create+a+new+profile&r=2&e=es&as=s#w_creating-a-profile Creating a new profile].

Both cookies boxes are unchecked in FF 3.6.8.

Keyboard didn't function when it is not the text bar in some web sites
I find that there is a big problem that I can't use the keyboard when I use the Safari or Firefox home on some web sites which isn't a text bar, I can only see it but can't type anything there, also there isn't any keyboard shortcut ? Actually I can't commit to buy the iPad also because of this. What to do?
