Unlike earlier versions, FF27.0.1 won't accept the root of a drive as default download dir. How do I change that?

I usually save downloads to the root of F:\ and have that set in my options. Since version 27.0.1 came along, Firefox ignores my setting and defaults to MyDocuments\Downloads.
Reverting to version 26 or earlier corrects the problem and my downloads go to F:\, but updating to 27.0.1 brings the problem back.
A workaround is to create a subdirectory and save to there, but I want to save in the root like I always did before version 27.0.1.
How can I make the current Firefox save downloads in the root of a stipulated drive?

There's a Bug filed on that. It's a regression. <br />
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=958899 <br/>
Fixed in Firefox 28 Beta 7.

    If you're using a fourth generation or earlier iPod touch, click here and download the software.
    If you're using a fifth generation iPod touch and an Intel Mac, buy Mac OS X 10.6 from the online Apple Store and run Software Update.
    If you're using a fifth generation iPod touch and a PowerPC Mac, buy a newer computer.

  • Can I go to an Apple store and have IOS 8 uninstalled and an earlier version installed?  IOS 8 has destroyed the battery life on my 4S

    No; they will not downgrade that device, and it’s highly unlikely that they have the same iPhone model running an older iOS version.

  • I want to upgrade my iCloud storage, but as I'm in Spain it won't accept an English card! Is there any other way to upgrade or change country??

    Andy,
    We are currently in the same situation as you.  Seems we have been "Spoofed",,,, e-mails "TO" us and also sent "From" us.... Both to and from using our old <xxxxxx.mac.com> address.  We are getting about 15 of the e-mails a day.  All from some version of "Med Store",, "Great Medical Store",, "Erect Meds Cheap",, and other variations of same.... Each one has a different "Link" in the text, but we never launch them.
    The amazing part is that for the past six weeks they all indicate that they originate from a different address.  Some foreign and some from US addresses.  So, we cannot write a "Rule" banning the originating address.
    We did write a "rule" that send them to "Junk" and forwards each one to <[email protected]>.
    Anyway,,,, we are ready to change our address, but are in the same "can't be done easily boat" as you.
    Seems we have to start all over and establish an entirely new Apple Account.  (Our old one will remain out in cyberspace forever)..... Seems strange.....
    Our reluctance remains with stuff like our Calendars, Notes, iTunes, Apple Store purchases, etc......
    We have posted questions here and on MacRumors, but seem to never get good answers.....  Most say just "live with it" and maybe it will stop.
    And like you we found out about using Alias' to late... shame on us....
    Very confusing and frustrating.....Still open for any input....
    Mike

  • How can I access my iCloud email account when I don't remember the password and Apple won't accept the answer to my security question?

    I set up an email account with " @me.com". I get a wrong password message when I try to log in. When I try to change my password I get an INcorrect answer message to the security question I'm asked my birth date so I know I have it right, unless I did a typo when I set up the account. When I choose email me the reset password lnk I cannot retrieve the email because it won't accept the password. I wanted to justemail Apple for instructions but cannot find an email address for that. Any help would be appreciated.

    I tried that without any luck. I was hoping I could get Apple to reset it for me or delete the account so I could recreate it or at least tell me what is listed as my birth date, the security question answer.

  • Since downloading the most recent version of iTunes, I have to accept the software terms and conditions every time I open iTunes

    Since installing the most recent version of iTunes, I have to accept the software terms and conditions every time I go in to iTunes.  I sign in to my account, but when I re-open iTunes, as well as having to accept the terms and conditions before continuing, I find that iTunes has logged me out of my account.  None of this has happened before.  I am using a PC with Windows 8.

    You made a purchase and exhausted the credit on your card before it processed. All purchases are final. Contact iTunes Store support. You need to settle up before you can purchase or download anything else.

    No luck, unfortunetly.  I've even restarted the whole computer.  They are usually still there, and sometimes, even older messages that I deleted from the drafts folder a long time ago, reappear as well.  I've also deleted the account from Mail and set it up from scratch several times hoping that would work, but it failed as well.

  • Firefox won't let me access a website. How do I change that?

    I can access the website itself, bu t where there should be 2 blanks to enter my ID and PW, there is just a large Firefox window saying Firefox says this is an untrusted site!! How do I change that and allow myself access to this site? Thank you for your help! This is an important site to me and I have accessed it many, many times in the past. Now I have just upgraded to the new version of Firefox, and....

    Check the date and time and time zone in the clock on your computer: (double) click the clock icon on the Windows Taskbar.
    Check out why the site is untrusted and click "Technical Details" to expand this section.
    If the certificate is not trusted because no issuer chain was provided (sec_error_unknown_issuer) then see if you can install this intermediate certificate from another source.
    You can inspect the certificate chain via a site like this:
    *http://www.networking4all.com/en/support/tools/site+check/
    You can retrieve the certificate and check details like who issued certificates and expiration dates of certificates.
    *Click the link at the bottom of the error page: "I Understand the Risks"
    Let Firefox retrieve the certificate: "Add Exception" -> "Get Certificate".
    *Click the "View..." button and inspect the certificate and check who is the <b>issuer of the certificate</b>.
    You can see more Details like intermediate certificates that are used in the Details pane.
    If <b>"I Understand the Risks"</b> is missing then this page may be opened in an (i)frame and in that case try the right-click context menu and use "This Frame: Open Frame in New Tab".
    *Note that some firewalls monitor (secure) connections and that programs like Sendori or FiddlerRoot can intercept connections and send their own certificate instead of the website's certificate.
    *Note that it is not recommended to add a permanent exception in cases like this, so only use it to inspect the certificate.
