When i downloaded firefox i choose ur tools i do not like it can i have my old ones back

when i downloaded firefox it asked if i wanted to use firefox browser or my old one. not knowing i would loose things. is there a way to switch back please

What is it that you have lost and want back ?
And was your ''old browser'' another version of Firefox or a completely different browser.
If for instance you have lost Google Toolbars not that this is no longer supported by Google on Firefox because basically it adds very little if any functionality that Firefox does not already have, (and you can still gain access to google bookmarks if that happens to be one of your problems).

  • I foolishly downloaded FireFox 4.0 without check the requirements and now I can't get my older version back. I tried downloading an older version but after downloading I am asked to select an "application" for the file.

    I didn't check the requirements and lost my older version of Firefox. All I have is an icon that is crossed out. Attempts to download an older version have so far failed. When trying to install, I am asked for an "application" to run the file.

    There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox

  • When I downloaded Firefox 4, I lost my Norton Safe Search Tool Bar. How do I get it back?

    When I downloaded Firefox 4, I lost my Norton safe search toolbar which not only told me what sites were okay to look at, it also contained all of my logon information for various sites and now, all of that is gone.

    Symantec need to update their Firefox add-ons so that they are compatible with Firefox 4. They have indicated that for Norton 360 they plan to release an update to Norton 360 to support Firefox 4 in early May - http://us.norton.com/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20100720113635EN&ln=en_US
    I do not know about the time scale for updates for other Norton products. Pending the update by Symantec, if you want to use the Norton add-ons you will need to downgrade to Firefox 3.6.
    To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
    You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
    To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.

  • When I download firefox, using recommended setting, or my own, all the sub files/folders like plugins, modules, updater end up on the desktop as well as in the file location. And when I try to put them into the file location, they don't. And when I delete

    When I download firefox, using recommended setting, or my own, all the sub files/folders like plugins, modules, updater end up on the desktop as well as in the file location. And when I try to put them into the file location, they don't. And when I delete them, FireFox won't open. I tried deleting FireFox and reinstalling it multiple times, and a message pops up sometimes that says FireFox may not have installed correctly, so I follow the steps, but all the extra icons on my desktop don't go away. This has happened every time I have downloaded FireFox. The browser itself works, but I need to know how to get rid of these icons, but still be able to use FireFox. This is on a new computer, with Windows 7.

  • When I downloaded Firefox 4, nothing from my previous version stuck, I have nothing, no bookmarks, passwords -- I really dislike Firefox 4

    I have used Firefox for many, many years. Happily, blissfully. Then Firefox 4.0 comes along. Now everything has changed and my entire dashboard experience has been dashed. First of all, when I downloaded Firefox 4.0, none of the settings, bookmarks or passwords from my previous Firefox transferred. Then somehow a Yahoo search bar got loaded on, I never authorized that, not a Yahoo fan. So I reloaded Firefox 4 in safe mode without my add ons. Maybe that wiped everything out. It made me log on to Gmail each time, refused to remember my password. All of my newspaper tabs were gone. I had nothing except a new browser that had never seen me before. I got frustrated and tried to restore the old 3.6 version. So I uninstalled Firefox 4. But I did'nt check that box about removing personal data. Anyway, where do I go from here? I even out of frustration downloaded Google Chrome which I am using at the moment. I really resist MS Explorer. I always run No Script, and only Firefox allows that, keeps me safe. So at the moment, my years of bookmarks are somewhere I don't know where. I could download Firefox 4.0 again I guess. Please work with me. I must confess that I really do not like this new Firefox, you changed the whole look. But, I am not a Cretan and will work with you if you can direct me. If my bookmarks are gone, sadly, I can live with it. I had like 30 news tabs, but I can go grab them again. Dan 602-476-1977

  • My backward and forward arrows are missing when I download Firefox 4.0

    My brother was at my home this past weekend and he downloaded Firefox 4.0 to his Windows Vista laptop and the download worked perfectly. When he downloaded Firefox 4.0 to my Windows Vista desktop, the download is missing the backward and forward arrows are missing and I find it very difficult to use the Firefox application. My brother removed the program and redownloaded the program at least 4 more times and every time the program downloaded with no backward or forward arrows. Both applications were downloaded from the same Firefox 4.0 website. How can this happen and what can be done to correct it?

  • I downloaded firefox 5 but lost my tool bars, how can i get the old version back?

    I downloaded firefox 5 but lost my tool bars, how can i get the old version back? It said my tool bars are not compatible. I want them back.

    That is the new appearance Firefox 4 and now Firefox 5, you can easily put things back because Firefox is customizable.
    You can make Firefox 4.0.1 and '''Firefox 5.0''' 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)]

  • How do I reconnect RealPlayer since it was lost when I downloaded firefox

    When I downloaded Firefox some time ago, I seem to have lost RealPlayer. All of my songs were on RealPlayer and although I can bring it up on the screen it tells me that each clip has been lost. I need to know how to get RealPlayer back since all of my songs, lessons etc are on there.

    Check that the Bookmarks Toolbar is visible and that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is still placed on the Bookmarks Toolbar.
    If the menu bar is hidden then press F10 or hold down the Alt key, that should make the "Menu Bar" appear.
    Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
    * Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout" (Linux, Windows)
    * Check that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
    * If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the toolbar palette in the customize window to the Bookmarks Toolbar
    * If you do not see the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" or other items that are missing in the toolbar palette or on a toolbar then click the "Restore Default Set" button

    Hi annarepublic78,
    As per the above mentioned error, your Win CS6 download was not complete, either it was in process or was interrupted. This is the only reason you see the MasterCollection_CS6_LS16.7z.crdownload. Here .crdownload means the download is in process.
    Please try to download it again on the Desktop and please make sure that the download completes successfully(without the .crdownload extension).

    Firefox versions 3.0 and higher require OSX 10.4 and higher:
    [http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/system-requirements-v3.html]

    [ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/2.0.0.20/mac/en-US/Firefox%202.0.0.20.dmg Firefox version 2.0.0.20] is the last ever version of Firefox for OSX 10.3.9 and lower.
    However, I would think about finding/creating an unofficial build of Firefox 3 for older Mac (if you cannot get next version of Mac OSX). If it's possible. I don't know.

    * DVD drive (DVD-ROM), Combo (CD-RW/DVD-ROM) or SuperDrive (DVD-R) for installation
    * At least 3 GB of free disk space; 4 GB if you install the XCode 2 Developer Tools
