Website requires Silverlight 4 (4.0.60831.0). How do I get Firefox to allow access to the now outdated but required plugin? Thanks

I used to have Firefox 18.0.1. Now have Firefox 19.0.2. I use a website where Silverlight 4 is required. Silverlight 5 is incompatible with the website. Firefox 18 allowed use of Silverlight 4. Firefox 19 has disabled the plugin as outdated. How can I force acceptance of Silverlight 4?

Have you tried uninstalling the current version of Silverlight and installing version 4? What happens when you try to install version 4? What is the error message you are receiving?

How do I get FireFox to allow a plugin that I have told it to allow??

I am having a problem getting FireFox to allow the RealDownloader plugin.
I have used Add-on Manager to set the RealDownloader plugin to Always Activate
BUT on certain websites, FireFox give me a bar asking if I want to allow it to run RealDownloader or continue blocking it. I select Allow and Remember
BUT the next day when I go to the same site it again gives me the same bar asking if I want to allow RealDownloader or continue blocking it. And, AGAIN, I select Allow and Remember -- but the next day it does the same thing.

I want to add Adobe Flash Player, How can I get Firefox to allow it?

I just made Mozilla Firefox my browser ...now I want to view a video...but it says I need to download Adobe Flashplayer...but since I have Firefox it says I need to somehow enable the add on. How do I do that? Where on the Firefox toolbar can I do that?

#'''Update or Install Shockwave Flash'''

#*SAVE to your Desktop so you can find it
#*After download completes, close Firefox
#*Click on the file you just downloaded and install
#**Note: Vista and Win7 users may need to right-click the installer downloaded and choose "Run as Administrator"
#**Note: Most browsers other than IE will also get updated with this one download
#**Note: To update IE, same procedure '''but use IE''' to go: http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe

How can I get Firefox to allow ads on websites?

When I load websites I don't see adds. This is most apparent on these sorts of sites (e.g. http://smashboards.com/ ) where I see a banner saying I have an ad-block enabled instead of seeing an advert. I do not have ad-block extensions. I have tried disabling all my extensions but this cause no change. I tried enabling tracking and allowing pop-ups but this also had no effect. I want ads to appear because I want to support the sites I visit.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] 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
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test.

How can you get firefox to work locally with the windows subst command?

I want to test my website locally using the windows subst command to emulate the root of my website. It works perfectly with IE8 (except IE8 displays the layout different to firefox) but will not work with Firefox. All of the images, styles sheets and anything with a root path does not work. If I use a relative path (../../ for example) to the objects they works fine.
How can I view web pages locally using a website root path?

Now I understand why Firefox does not load local pages and and IE does. I followed the link and tried all the various solutions. The noscript version did not work (but at least I have better security now) and the \\\\\ UNC path trick did nothing. Eventually I downloaded the IEtab plugin and that worked perfectly. All I wanted to do was to check webpages locally before submitting to my website and the IEtab plugin worked perfectly.
Thanks

How do I get Firefox for Android to recognize the built in camera on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 7plus running 4.0.4?

The new Firefox works great on my Galaxy Pad, but does not recognize the built in camera allowing me to upload videos to the web. I do not have that problem with Dolphin.
When I go to a website that allows me to upload videos and click on record, Firefox states that I do not have a webcam connected. The Galaxy Tab 7Plus has two cameras, one facing each direction. I do not have this problem with other browsers.
Everything else is exemplary.
thanks...............biff

The native Android Youtube player does a much better job of handing video playback than embeded flash in a browser.

How can I get FIREFOX to store password for the public library, since it doesn't ask me when I go to that site ?

My password at a particular website was changed recently, so I
removed that site from the list of saved passwords in Firefox
manager. Now, when I visit that site, FIREFOX doesn't ask me
to save the password for this site.
WHY ?

The website may be using autocomplete=off to prevent Firefox from saving the name and password.
You can remove autocomplete=off with a bookmarklet to make Firefox save the name and password.

HT1694 When I am in my e-mail, how do I get it to go back to the original screen, but still remain in the e-mail?

I am new to the IPAD - I was wondering when I am in my e-mail and I am finished with looking at a e-mail, now do I get it to go back to a blank screen so I don't end up with a bunch of open windows. Also, can you open up folder where bulk - junk mail will go automatically?

You can't have bunch of open windows on the iPad, you can only work on one window at a a time. Tap the home button to go back to the home screen or double tap the home button - no all of your recent apps will be at the bottom of the screen in the recents tray. Tap on the app that you want to go back to. You can also use Multitasking gestures - go to Settings>General>Multitasking Gestures>On. When you are in the setting You can read how it works.
You cannot open a bulk folder for junk mail to go to automatically. Junk mailboxes can only be set up in IMAP email accounts. If you had an IMAP account, you would already have a junk mailbox in the mail app since it would have probably synced to the iPad when you set the email account up on the device.
If you go to your email account in the Mail app and look at the window where your inbox, trash folder and sent folder are - if there is an Edit button at the top of the window - tap that and then tap Add Mailbox at the bottom.
If the Edit button is not there - you cannot create folders on the iPad. Your email account is not IMAP. Only IMAP email accounts can create folders on the iPad. Any folders that you would already have in an IMAP account would sync to the device as well.

How can I get firefox to allow my bank to redirect to another page without me having to "allow" it?

Fire fox has started to prevent my bank from "automatically redirecting to an other page" I have to hit the "allow" button, two times. I have check tools, security etc., and can't find where to change it back to doing it automatically or adding as an exception.

See:
* [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Menu_differences Tools > Options] > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"

How can I get Firefox to allow AOL to open. It will not allow!

Firefox a warning that I will be redirected to another page (aol.com) and I select the allow box., but it does not redirect or allow. HELP

See:
*Firefox > Options/Preferences > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"
The setting in "Options > Advanced > General" is meant as an accessibility feature, as you can see by the label of that section, so that people with disabilities or people who use screen readers do not get confused and is not meant as a safety protection to stop redirecting.

How do I get Firefox to allow me to go to the Facebook site, it blocks all attempts.

Every time I google facebook or try to go to the site from an email link, Firefox blocks it and gives a message it is an untrusted site.

By the way, another user discovered their Facebook issue was caused by their ESET security software needing to be updated: [https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1057306 Why is mozilla not accepting facebooks certificate on my pc ?] Not sure if that is relevant to you.

I am trying to access the source code to my blog (I used a standard template on Blogger) to add a code for advertisements. How can I get Firefox to allow me to edit the code for my blog?

I see where I can view the code but not where I can make changes. The coding that is there now was created by the template I chose on Blogger.

A good place to ask advice about web development is at the mozillaZine Web Development/Standards Evangelism forum.
