SPEED DIAL and OPENING Firefox

Why is that every time I open Firefox I do not have all my SPEED DIAL sites that I created? Also, Firefox will not open when I click on it to open; it just flashes the page like it is trying to open, I have to disconnect from the network provider and then Firefox opens. What is going on with this new Firefox? I want to downgrade to the previous version; no problems with that version.

Regarding your Speed Dial list, I'm guessing that was created using an add-on. Can you check to see whether it was disabled because it wasn't compatible with Firefox 4:
Tools > Add-ons > Extensions
If there's no update and you can't live without it, sure, you can reinstall 3.6.16. First, make a backup of your computer for safekeeping. To back up Firefox, see [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information].
Next, download and save Firefox 3.6 to your desktop for future installation. http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all-older
Close Firefox 4, and uninstall it. Do not remove your personal data and settings, just the program.
Then finally you can reinstall Firefox 3.6. Unless you have installed an incompatible add-on, it should pick up where you left off. If there are serious issues, please post back with details.
Note: I haven't actually tried this downgrade myself!

  • Two things came with my Firefox when I downloaded it. Speed Dial and Xmarks. When I start the program it locks up and I have to just shut it down. How can I delete them? I only want the Firefox.

    When I downloaded Firefox I had two things download with it. Speed Dial and Xmarks. I don't know about either and don't want them. I cannot delete them alone it seems. When it all loads it locks my computer up totally. I cannot x out of anything. Just kind of "thunks" with a dead sound. My facebook applications runs better on Firefox but I can't seem to get it downloaded alone. What am I doing wrong? I do not want the speed dial for sure. Don't know about the Xmarks.

    Where did you download Firefox from?
    The official Firefox download doesn't come with either of those addons.

  • Q10 speed-dial and texting issues

    Hi there,
    I am setting up a q10 for my wife, and i also have one.
    I cannot do speed dial on my q10. I have two brand new identical devices and one can do speed dials, and one cant.. I can set up the speed dials, but it doesnt activate when i do a longpress.
    Also when i longpress a number in my call log it doesnt give me the option of sending a text, whereas my other devices does.
    Also when i play a song it deosnt give me the choice to add that song as a ringtone whereas it gives me that choice and other choices on my other device.
    My questions are:
    Is there a way i can restore some defaults to have these features, or change options so i can have these same features that i have on my idetical device.
    or is the second devices faulty> Seems odd that it would be as its brand new.

  • The crash report always appears whenever I start up my PC and open Firefox, it does not appear when I close Firefox.

    Everytime I start up my PC and open Firefox, the crash report will appear. The crash report does not appear subsequently, it only appears when I first open Firefox. I do not seem to have problems when using Firefox otherwise, though I do get new Firefox windows opening and showing me spam.

  • My tabs are NOT restored after I reopen close and open firefox. I have tried all the suggested decisions- didn't work.

    My tabs are NOT restored after I reopen close and open firefox. I have tried the default page - on it I don't have "Restore Previous Session" button. I tried with the history menu - the "Restore Previous Session" option is not even available, like I never had previous session. I have tried to put my settings to always restore the tabs from the previous time- in fact, this option is on "Show my windows and tabs from last time" for a very long time now. Still don't work. Please, give me ideas, or even set up some time to chat live. Thank you all in advance.

    This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • When I remove a button, it reappears when I close and open firefox again, how do I fix this?

    For example the "share" button, if I remove it by customising Firefox, it is there again when I close and open Firefox.

    The file that stores details of customizations may be corrupt. For details on how to fix that see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Toolbar+keeps+resetting

  • I can look at one email in hotmail. But when I try to open/read another, nothing happens. If I close and open firefox I can again read only one e-mail.

    I can only look at one e-mail when I open Firefox. In order to read the next e-mail I have to close and open firefox again. This happened with the new version 4.0. I was happy with firefox before, but I am very unhappy now. The new download also said it disabled my hpweb something and something else (I can't remember what it is, but it is listed somewhere in firefox help area.

  • I want to use the speed dial extension when I start firefox. I have the option checked in speed dial settings but firefox does not open to the speed dial. How do I get this to work?

    I want firefox to open up to the speed dial add-on so I can use it as my start page. In the speed dial options I have checked the option to start firefox in the speed dial but when I open firefox it doesn't open the speed dial.

    Sorry, I don't use that add-on, and I don't see a SpeedDial support forum listed on the download page. <br />

  • Firefox will hang on a website then everything else will no longer load and forces me to close and open firefox to get it to work.

    As the question says I am having several issues with Firefox lately. I've tried disabling every addon, disabling JavaScript, running it in safe mode - no addons. Nothing seems to work.
    I'll be on pandora listening to music, I open a new tab and go to a site like facebook. If that page does not load or hangs, my browser will no longer allow me to go to any other site until I close and open the browser. (Of course closing the tab that caused the issue). This happens about 10+ times every day, and I've supported firefox for years but this issue just keeps getting worse. It started when I upgraded to FireFox 6.

    Does the issue still occur if you start Firefox in Safe Mode? http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode

  • 5800 - cannot speed dial and dial from handsfree c...

    I verified the following behaviour of the new 5800 which seems to me to be a bug, because it works on other nokia series 60 phones:
    Because I synchronize my phonebook with MS Outlook, phone numbers have the syntax "+43 (1) 9876543". These phonebook entries can be dialed without problems when I call using the phonebook.
    But if I use the speed dialing feature (press and hold e.g. key "2" ), I get the message "Nicht gestattet" (German, means "not allowed" ), and the number is not dialed. If I delete the spaces and the brackets, dialing is possible without problems.
    The same behaviour can be seen if I try to dial from my built in handsfree set in my car with numbers as described above.
    Before the 5800 I used a E65 and a 6120c, there the syntax described above worked without problems.
    Software: v11.0.008.red.01
    Any clues?
    Best regards,
    Thomas

    I got this, I found out it happened when the number has spaces in it.
    Try cleansing the number of all spaces and punctuation (and prefix with +country code)
    This works for me.

    Sorry, this is no fix, this is a workaround. It is clear, that this will avoid the problems. But PIMs like MS Outlook create phone numbers in this format; after synchronization with my phone, there are spaces in all of the phone numbers. Therefore I suggest, Nokia implements this like for all other S60v3 phones. This would be the only fix. Regards, Thomas.

  • When i try to load certain page, the system crashed and the bottom panel states " stopped" but when I close and open firefox again,it can't and I get this message that says my firefox is still running and to open the browser i need to restart the compu

    while browsing suddenly the system crashed and the bottom panel says " stopped".When closed and re-opened, I got a prompt that says firefox is still running and i have to close to open again or have to restart the computer but it doesn't work
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == just happened

    You get message "firefox is still running" and computer restart doesn't help you. Try the advice below.
    Make sure Firefox isn't running (end firefox.exe process in Task Manager or restart computer)
    Find your profile folder
    C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxxxxxxx.default
    find file "parent.lock" in it and delete it (the file is empty, its function is to signify to Firefox whether it's already open or not).
    Then try to open Firefox again. Will it start or not? What will it say?

  • Unable to download and open Firefox 4 on IMAC version 10.6.7?

    Attempted to download Firefox 4 and open it on my IMAC
    version 10.6.7. The download shows on my download screen.
    I attempt to transfer the icon to my applications file as per the
    Firefox instructions. I am asked if it is to replace the existing
    Firefox, and I indicate yes. However, when I then click the icon, I still have the older version of Firefox, not the 4 version. The new Firefox 4 download continues to show on my download screen, and I repeated 20 - 25 times to put the new version into my applications file, but the old version still comes up.

    Je ne peux pas ouvrir Firefox. Voici le message que je reçois : " Firefox est déjà en cours d'exécution mais ne répond pas. Pour ouvrir une nouvelle fenêtre, vous devez d'abord arrêter le processus Firefox existant ou redémarrer votre système." Je ne vois pas de processus existant.

  • Speed Dial and Abbreviated Dial

    I have to configure 40 phones with 100 Speed dial/Abbre. numbers. Is there anyways I can configure one phone with these numbers and have this phone publish these  to other 39 phones?
    OR is there a easy way of doing this task?
    I am using CCM 9.x and Cisco 7821 SIP phone. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi
    You could configure one phone, and then export the phone config (using BAT import/export functions) then edit the output file to copy the speed dials to the other phones.
    On 10.5 you can associate all the phones to one user, and the User Portal allows you to link the phones together so the speed dials are synced. Just found this the other day, but it's not much use to you just now!
