When Firefox updated, my dad could no longer use the browser as it kept saying that is it working off line and to uncheck that option. Where do we find the option to uncheck?
My 82 year old dad downloaded your latest update and he installed it. He used default installation as he does not know how to do custom. When he started up Firefox, it came up with the dialogue that Firefox is off line and that he was suppose to uncheck work off line Box. i looked through my Firefox and I cannot figure out where that box is. He is 150 miles away from me so I can't really look at his computer.
Use "Alt" key to show menu bar temporarily the on the File menu uncheck "work offline".
You don't always get a message that tells you that you are off-line so even though I hardly ever need it I do install the following because of it's connected/disconnected icons
* '''Work Offline''' :: Add-ons for Firefox<br>https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/work-offline/
You can make Firefox 4.0.1 look like Firefox 3.6.17, see numbered items 1-10 in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 look like 3.6)]

Dashlane stopped working on MAC 10.9.5 when Firefox updated. NO dot at all under the reindeer.
Firefox updated this morning to 33.1. My Dashlane is also up to date. Reindeer is present in toolbar. It is grey BUT has NO dot. I checked the extension. The extension is present and enabled. This has happened on both my desktop MAC 10.9.4 as well as my MacBook Air 10.9.5. Really need a solution. Can't get into anything. Thanks so much.
HI please update the dashline plugin or try a new install. Mozilla is looking into this issue and has provided the recommendation of that update as a work around.
Please report back if you have any further issues about this topic. Thank you. -
Updated iPhoto could no longer use the music from iTunes library for slideshow
Anybody checked if you can still use your music from iTunes library for slideshows?
After updating both iPhoto and iTunes to the latest version in Mavericks, all music links in the iPhoto's slideshows became invalid. Tried even to re-establish the music links, but it seems like the iPhoto would not play any music from the iTunes library. Only the sample music from iPhoto is usable. The iTunes works fine by the way.
Thanks a lot!I think I found a workaround that seemed to correct the problem. In iTunes, go to the File menu and choose Library. Then select Organize Library. Next choose Reorganize files in the folder "iTunes Media". Click OK.

This feature that helps to block ad and social network tracking appeared on the last update, it had a green drop down where I could then get a screen showing the number of tracking that are blocked, not blocked and could block the ones that weren't. Today when Firefox updated it disappeared. I do have the TrackerBlock addon installed, but I found the drop down helpful and would like to get it back.
Sometimes an icon will get removed from the toolbar by another extension. Could you check the Customize dialog to see whether the missing icon is in there? This article has the steps: [[Customize Firefox controls, buttons and toolbars]].

Can you fix , the fact that If you leave the firefox UPDATE window open for a long period (say 20 minutes in the background), then close all other windows, then choose to download update, it uses this extra time to estimate the download? (Mine said, 12 Hours to start with, but took under 2 minutes!)
== This happened ==
Not sure how often
== When you install update to 3.6.4 (Possibly for every update?)The download should happen in the background (before you get an update window). I wonder why that didn't happen for you...\
Did you manually check for updates? -
I updated to Firefox 4.0.1 and can no longer use the thumb/finger spreading feature on the trackpad of my Mac Powerbook (Mac OSX 10.6.7) to enlarge text on websites. How do I restore this function?
* [/questions/777886]
Some gestures have been removed in Firefox 4.
You can restore the zoom feature by changing the values of the related prefs on the <b>about:config</b> page.
browser.gesture.pinch.in -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReduce</b>
browser.gesture.pinch.in.shift -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReset</b>
browser.gesture.pinch.out -> <b>cmd_fullZoomEnlarge</b>
browser.gesture.pinch.out.shift -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReset</b>
browser.gesture.pinch.latched -> <b>false</b>
To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />
You can use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a pref more easily. -
When I replaced my PC desktop with a Mac Mini and hooked up my HP printer to it, I discovered that my other computers on the Wi-Fi network could no longer access the printer. The manual says Maverick OS will not allow PC's to share the printer. Does anyone else have this problem? My printer does not have on-board Wi-Fi but, otherwise, works fine. I shouldn't have to buy a new one. Is there a OS patch out there that would open the printer port for my PC computers?
I'm assuming that on the Mac, the System Preferences -> Sharing -> Printer Sharing -> [X] HP printer -> Everyone can print is selected? That is to say, the Mac will allow anyone to print using the printer, and that you did not try to restrict who can print.
How is your network configured? Bonjour as a protocol will NOT cross a router boundary. If you have 2 or more subnets active with the PCs on one subnet and the Mac on another, that would block the PCs from seeing the Mac.
You could have multiple subnets if you have more than one router, such as an ISP provided broadband modem/router and another WiFi Router. If the PCs are talking to one router and the Mac is talking to another, that could be a 2 subnet situation. The additional routers must be put into bridge mode, which is done differently depending on the router. But the basics are to diable DHCP and NAT services on the secondary router(s) having just one active router on the network.
Also, using Bonjour Browser on my Mac, it is showing me that the printer is being advertised as using Internet Printing Protocol, so if that is something selectable on Windows, maybe you can bypass Bonjour on Windows. -
When Firefox updated, I lost all my BOOKMARKS besides my toolbar. Can't express how unhappy bar
When Firefox updated, I lost the toolbar including the link for bookmarks. When I "searched" for Bookmarks it said I had none.
A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
*Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

You can create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Creating a profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles

If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from an existing profile to the new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

Try to boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.
If that helps then you most likely have some security software that isn't working properly. -
When firefox updates, I cannot re-open it. It appears in the dock at the bottom, then disappears. I uninstall, re-install, but it does the same.
It opens after initial install of 3.6.8, but as soon as I add the roboform and downthemall add-ins it restarts and won't open again.
I have had these add-ins for awhile without issues, but for the past two days, I have had to reinstall it twice, and this time it won't work.hello leehuiling, what kind of security software are you using on the computer?

Jump list vanishes when Firefox updated
Whenever a Firefox update downloads, the jump list that should appear when right-clicking the icon on the Windows 7 taskbar vanishes. It's a pain to then remember what websites were in that jump list in order to re-create it.
Is there any way to avoid losing the jump list when Firefox updates?
Thanks.

Lost ALL MY PASS WORDS N BOOKMARKS WHEN FIREFOX UPDATED TODAY FEB 2015. I had 10 yrs of info HELP
firefox 32 or 34 it said and I am REALLY UPSET ABOUT THIS. CAN ANYONE HELP ME PLEASE.Look on your desktop. Do you see a folder called; '''Old Firefox?'''
'''https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/recovering-important-data-from-an-old-profile'''
'''https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/back-and-restore-information-firefox-profiles'''
These can't get your data back, but will help in the future.
These add-ons can be a great help by backing up and restoring Firefox
'''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/febe/ FEBE (Firefox Environment Backup Extension)]''' {web link}
FEBE allows you to quickly and easily backup your
Firefox extensions, history, passwords, and more.
In fact, it goes beyond just backing up -- It will actually rebuild
your saved files individually into installable .xpi files.
It will also make backup of files that you choose.

I have a HP Pavilion DV6 Laptop and really like the HP Simple Pass password system the laptop offers. I have been using with FF since getting the computer last Oct 2010 with no issues. I just upgraded to FF4 and now can no longer use the HP Simple Pass finger print reader with FF4. Is there a way to fix this problem?
The company that make the bioscanner for HP have abandoned it. For more details see https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/799388

the problem I have since I upgraded to Mavericks version 10.9.1
The problem appears only with Mail not with other programs, not even with my browser.
When I try to zoom the text of an e-mail I received or sent , I can no longer use the keys Command + to enlarge the text, although I can reduce it with Command -.
As I have a problem with my eyes, This is a serious matter for me.
When I write an e-mail, if I select text and press Command +, it just displaces the text to the right.
Now, my husband has a USB keyboard. If he connects it to my computer, his regular Command + does not work either, but he uses the extended keyboard, then it works. Unfortunately, he needs it for a musical application which does not work with a wireless keyboard.Firefox 3.6.4 and 3.6.6 use a process called, "plugin-container.exe" which was using up most of my CPU when I opened up multiple tabs that contained Adobe Flash files, and caused Firefox to lock up.
My solution was to use Firefox 3.5.10 which you can get from the Mozilla website at [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html]
I am using Adobe Flash 10.1.53.64 without any problem in this version of Firefox. Check the release notes, I believe it contains all the latest security fixes in "Firefox 3.6.4".
Hopefully, they will fix Firefox 3.6 in the next version (e.g. Firefox 3.6.7), until then you should probably use "Firefox 3.5.10".
