Text in History sidebar looks compressed (Firefox 4.0b2)

I just upgraded to Firefox 4.0b2 from 2.6.8, and when ever I open up the history sidebar by using Ctrl+H, the text looks compressed and pixelated. It's not really a big problem, but I just want4ed to let you guys know about this problem.
Oh yeah, this also happens with the bookmarks sidebar.

The history sidebar does not automatically come up when I start Firefox.

I always had the history sidebar set to appear when Firefox booted. Now I have to manually open it each time. Why?

Delete localstore.rdf or rename the file to localstore.rdf.sav in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder] to test if the file is corrupted. 
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Corrupt_localstore.rdf 
(caution: do not delete the localstore.rdf file in the Firefox program installation folder) 
 
Note: 
Deleting the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/localstore.rdf localstore.rdf] will reset the customizations of the toolbars to the defaults. 
You can rename "localstore.rdf" to "localstore.rdf.sav" to test if that solves it. 
Then you can restore the customization by copying "localstore.rdf.sav" to "localstore.rdf" if it didn't work.

Trying to look up my text message history

Needing to track down some old information from a text message, and I deleted that persons number. Ive been told I can look up my text message history, but I can't seem to find it on the Verizonwireless website.
HELP

You can look up only the last three months of numbers.

All of the sudden my entire text message history was deleted, but if I search for a text it shows up in the results but will not open. How can I restore the old text messages?

I went to text message on my phone and when I looked down my entire text message history was gone. When I sent a text message it showed up as the only box an there was not an Load Older Messages option. But when I page over and search a word or name old messages show up in the results and when I press on them it opens the text message page but there is no text message.

i think that was the problem. i simply downgraded to Firefox 5, not only because of the highlighted text fields, but because i was getting a lot of crash reports whenever i opened multiple tabs. downgrading to Firefox 5 resolved it.

Unable to delete "(no title)" Folder Entry in history sidebar

Hello. Recently I got a strange issue in my history sidebar on Firefox Ver. 35 beta.
Today I noticed I have a "(no title)" folder on the history sidebar when I set the sort view to date and site. I tried to delete it by clicking on delete and on forget about this site but it doesn't gets removed.
I noticed I had this entry in 4 different dates which are in today's history, in last 7 days history, in this month history and on November's history. The rest of the days/months doesn't have such entry.
I know it has to do with the places.sqlite file since I removed it (previous backup of my profile folder). Obviously the history all of it disappeared (my bookmarks and bookmarks toolbar weren't affected) and the empty history only showed the homepage I have set for Firefox to open when I run the browser.
I really don't know what triggers this behavior. Other than that everything is working normally. No crashes, no slowdowns, no nothing. Just the "(no title)" issue.
As you can see on the screenshot, that entry only has the copy, delete and forget about this site options available, the rest are grayed out, as in not available.
I thought in ask because I was unable to remove that entry. And I don't want to lose my whole history because I have a lot of sites I visit there.
Maybe adding a way for this kind of entries to be removed would be a nice solution.
Thank you in advance :)

If you click on the no title history entry, does it take you to a webpage? And if so, if you looke at the head of the html is there an entry
<title>HTML Reference</title>
In the past when an entry like this could not be deleted it was mentioned it may have to do with sync, do you use sync, and if you do a "sync now" does this entry go away?
Also this was seen with migration of bookmarks, but was resolved. If you have the url of the no title page this may narrow down a reason, but not a work around.

Oriolefan,
You've reached the right place for assistance! In most cases, the reason behind this is the iMessaging feature on your iPhone. Since these are not standard text messages, they are not reported online. In order to change this you must disable the iMessage feature from your device. To do so, go to Settings>Messaging>Disable iMessage.

Using the "history" sidebar

It seems that there are problems with the "history" sidebar (invoked by Ctrl-H).
I use the sidebar to manage the history. The default view is "By Date and Site", such that the sites appear as nodes. Usually I navigate up and down with the arrow keys, and delete entries (or consecutive entries selected by holding the shift key) by pressing the "Del" key. These functionalities were working well in Firefox 2.x, but not the current release.
* Deleting "page" entries works as before.
* After deleting a "site" node, the cursor always jump to the topmost ("Today") node, regardless what the container "date" node is.
* In deleting consecutive "site" nodes, only the first one is deleted, and the cursor jumps to the list top afterwards.
I'd like to ask if it is possible to restore its original behaviour ?

How can I change the ENTIRE look of Firefox?

How can I change the ENTIRE look of Firefox? I.e. I want to change all icons that appear in the browser - the loading "gif" the firefox...well... fox of fire in the "about" page, etc. Also what text shows up, for example on the "about:robots" page, and when hovering over a button, etc.
I could do something like that with an earlier version of Firefox, and I found the quotes from the "about:robots" page in the "omni.ja" archive, extracted, changed them and replaced in the original archive, along with other icons, however they do not seem to be implemented. :/
I do not mean changing the desktop or .exe icons, already did that.

You can make a theme, https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Themes

History Sidebar started showing up today. I cannot eliminate it

Today, whenever I bring up Firefox as my home page, the history sidebar shows up. I can uncheck it, but the next time I load the home page it shows up. My privacy setting is to never retain the history. How can I keep from having to use the "x" or uncheck it to close it? As I said, this just started this afternoon.

If you are running Firefox in automatic private browsing mode, it's possible that Firefox is not remembering the change of closing the sidebar.
Since opening the sidebar is not the default behavior, perhaps you could eliminate the problem by removing a settings file which stores window positions and other user interface data. If you want to try that, here's how you do it:
Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using either
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
* (menu bar) Help > Troubleshooting Information
* type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
In the first table on the page, click the "Show Folder" button. This should launch a new window listing various files and folders in Windows Explorer.
Leaving that window open, switch back to Firefox and Exit, either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "power" button
* (menu bar) File > Exit
Pause while Firefox finishes its cleanup, then rename '''xulstore.json''' to something like xulstore.old. If you see a file named localstore.rdf, rename that one to localstore.old.
Start Firefox back up again. Does the sidebar stay closed?

How can i copy text from a pdf while in firefox?

i no longer seem to be able to highlight and copy text from a pdf, while in firefox 33.0, using adobe to view pdfs.
how do i turn on the select tool, so i can do this?

When viewing a PDF with a browser you are using a browse add-on (Adobe's, Firefox's, or some other provider).
An add-on is not the desktop application; add-ons do not provide the full functionality of the desktop application (Reader or Acrobat).
To have full use of all Comment and Drawing Markup tools save the PDF to the local machine's HDD.
Launch Adobe Reader XI (pre-XI releases do not have the full set of these tools).
Open the PDF. Annotate as desired.
Be well...

Clearing of text messages history

for some reason my blackberry curve just started clearing all my text message history??? i've no idea why or how? in fact, i checked the history option and i have it set to keeping it for 6 months, before it was 3 months, but i never had the problem that all of a sudden all my text messages were cleared, it seems as if it may be on some schedule to clear it all. but how this came about i've no idea as i don't believe that i changed any function and i don't want this happening anymore...
help????
thanks!

Sometimes happens because you are running the device under low memory.
First of all with the phone turn on take out the battery for 30 seconds and reinstall the battery again.
Read this link with tips for memory space.

Why can't I add text in the signature panel in firefox?

why can't I add text in the signature panel in firefox? I have adobe acrobat pro XI. I can open a pdf in acrobat pro and am able to add text to a pdf, but when I open a pdf in firefox, the "add text" option is not available.

When you install Acrobat XI you are also installing Reader for use in the browser. Reader is "sandboxed", or as it says in the Preferences, it is in "Protected Mode". Acrobat does not understand the concept of running in sandboxed memory (sandbox is a security feature to prevent the bad guy from exploiting a memory error and getting into a memory address where they can do damage to your computer) so to help protect Acrobat users the same way Reader users are protected we just install Reader along with Acrobat, but it is only used in the browser (part of this is because the bad guys use web sites as their primary method of distributing corrupted PDF files that can cause problems).
That said, because you are in Reader the file needs to be Reader Enabled prior to being posted to the web site (or opened in the browser). Once the file is Reader Enabled you should be able to add the text annotations.

Print out of text message history!

Hey guys,
Does anyone know how i can get a print out of my entire text message history for one conversation on my iphone 4. I know it is in the phone because i can view it bit by bit if i continue to scroll and hit "view previous messages" but i am in the middle of a legal thing and i desperately need a print out of the history of this one conversation. There has to be a computer genius out there than can help me. There must be a way to export it to my macbook or my email or something. Please if you know anything i would be so grateful. Thank you!

Two Methods:
1. You can put the text messages on your screen like your reading it.. press the lock button and the home button at the same time.. it will take a picture of it and be saved to your photo album.. then upload it to your computer or email it to yourself..it won't be a document but it will be a picture and that's something.
2. use iPhone backp extractor app:
First backup your iPhone to your computer with iTunes, all text messages, contacts will be included in the backp file, but it is an unreadable format, you have to extract them to your computer for print.

How to get the original look of firefox 4 with 'firefox button' on top then bookmarks lane following with address bar..?

i have been using firefox 3.6.16 and just upgraded to version 4 last night. actually the problem is this, in my browser the 'firefox button' and all tabes are shown in the same lane on top.
what i want is to get the default look of firefox 4 with firefox button on top and all the tabs appearing on beneath this button..(not in same lane)
am i having due to any preference setting or else? please help

If the Firefox window is maximized, it will display the tabs in the same line as the Firefox button, it only displays them on a separate line on a non-maximized window.
