When I scan a barcode in our online database using Firefox, IE, or Chrome, it creates an automatic bookmark causing the data from the scan not to be entered.

It also tries to automatically bookmark if I scan into a google search bar or any other place it could be entered.
It is a datamatrix barcode.
The barcode content reads:
[)>06Y7310400000000XP2344374712V652029760TI114006A1000004X2P00D1P7609400121S1000004

If it doesn't work on any browser, why is this a Firefox problem?

When trying to go into itunes I get this message "Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (itmss) isn't associated with any program"

When trying to log into itunes i get this message:
Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (itmss) isn't associated with any program.
I had to reset Firefox (due to slowness and shockwave error message that I kept getting). Itunes was downloaded after the reset, but I can't get into it? Any ideas?

I ran into this same problem after Firefox auto-updated to v24! I'm on the Beta Channel and I had Firefox set to automatically update.
What I did to correct the problem:
1. Turned off all automatic updating.
Options> Advanced> Update [tab]
Firefox updates
[x] Check for updates, but let me choose whether to install them
[ ] (unchecked) Use a background service to install updates
I also unchecked;
[ ] Search Engines (I will turn this back on after I'm done with my experiment.)
2. Googled 'Firefox v23 download', downloaded and installed: Firefox_Setup_23.0b1.exe (version 23, Beta 1)
Since I reverted back to v23, I haven't had any problems.

When I create a new bookmark folder, the name of an existing folder is frequently changed to the anme of the new one, why?

Frequently when I create a new bookmark folder the name of an already existing unrelated folder is also changed to the same name as the new one being created. Sometimes if I am creating the new folder in "Bookmarks Menu" the existing folder who's name is changed is also in the "Bookmarks Menu". But sometimes it will be in the "Bookmarks Toolbar".
This is quite frustrating since the purpose of naming them is to identify them.

This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

why when i use firefox 4 or 5 they didn't ask like firfox3 save and quit this option not include in 4 or 5 or 6

Firefox 4 saves the previous session automatically, so there is no longer need for the dialog asking if you want to save the current session.<br />
Use "File > Exit" or "Firefox > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit Firefox") if you want to restore multiple windows.<br />
You can use "History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session at any time.<br />
You may need to click the orange/gray Firefox button to see History.<br />
There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default <b>about:home</b> Home page.<br />
<br />
Another possibility is to use:

Hi, I have a macbook pro 2012 13 inch, everytime i go to watch a video (youtube/uni lectures) online (i use firefox), the video plays but if i go into another tab, the audio keeps playing, but the image on screen will be frozen. It gets really frustrating

Hi,
I have a macbook pro 2012 13 inch, which i use for uni and youtube etc. I use firefox for my web browsing, whenever I go to watch videos, from youtube or even uni lectures (for all my subjects) the video and audio play fine, but as soon as i switch into another tab, the audio continues to play whilst the video lags and stops all together, freezing on the current screen. The timestamp on the video players also stops, which gets incredibly frustrating when I am watching uni lectures, does anybody know how to fix this?? Please help.

Which os version are you using?
Which Firefox version?
Have you posted in the Firefox forums or contacted their tech support for assistance?
Have you made sure you are using the latest version of Adobe Flash Player?

Hey there Rodney274,
It sounds like you are getting an error from iTunes when you launch it. I would try the troubleshooting in this article named:
iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1717
Start with troubleshooting for 3rd party plug ins section, then the rest of the article if needed:
Start iTunes in Safe Mode
Open iTunes in Safe Mode to isolate any interference from plug-ins or scripts not manufactured by Apple.
Hold down Shift–Control while opening iTunes. You should see a dialog that says "iTunes is running in safe mode" before iTunes finishes starting up.
Click Continue.
See if the issue you're experiencing persists in Safe Mode.
If you have the same issue while iTunes is in Safe Mode, proceed to the "Create a new user account" section. If you don't experience the same issue, follow these steps to remove third-party plug-ins.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Sterling

When I try to open folders in e-mail using firefox I get a message "There appears to be a problem loading the message list". Re-setting firefox did not help.

When I go to e-mail I get the inbox. I cannot access other folders such as 'sent items' or 'spam' however and when I go back to inbox I get the same message. The problem only arises using firefox - not internet explorer. I have tried resetting firefox and the default settings without effect.

I have gif animated images that are not showing up in my web page when I am view in Firefox. The images are fine in IE. I would like to tell all of our clients to use FireFox but with this issue I can't recommend firefox. Please let me know what I can do.

I am using a word document, converting to html and I am not seeing my animated image.No problem in IE 9 and I wouldn't think it would be a problem in Firefox.

Am working on a webpage with some animated gifs in it. Everything works fine when it is loaded up, the images display and animate continuously. But these gifs may be updated on the server. I have some javascript that checks if the gifs have been updated by checking the modified meta data. If it has that image is reloaded. this works fine and the new image is brought up but that animation is never started. it just sits there on the first frame.
works as planned in chrome. it also worked as planned in FF9 but does not in FF12

How can I login to an online course using firefox?

I have a Mac OS X, version 10.6.4. I installed the mozilla firefox browser to enable to follow online courses. When I try to login, it says that my browser is unable to read their password or something like that. Whatever. I cannot get in.
== This happened ==
Just once or twice
== I tried to take the online course.

Chris, thank you for responding. I am, totally, computer illiterate. I just want to begin my onlines courses and I do not know how to activate my browser in order to login to the online course. I thought all of this was automatic. I know the Mozilla Firefox functions, but I can't login so I think it is something simple that I do not know to do.

When I connect my Macbook air to my TV, using a Mini Display Port/HDMl adaptor and an HDMl cable, the only thing that appears on the TV screen is the Air's background screen,

When I connect my Macbook Air to my TV via the thunderbolt outlet and using a Mini Display Port/HDMl adaptor, the only image that appears on the TV screen is that of my Air background. There is obviously a signal getting through to the TV, but it is not sending images of anything else, and am unable to watch video through my Air. Any advise/suggestions?

This is called "extended desktop mode". It's an extension of the desktop off to the right (by default) of your MBair screen. Grab an app and drag it off the right side of your MBair screen and it will appear on the TV.
To mirror your MBair screen on the TV you can press Command F1. This will toogle between mirror and extended desktop.
You can find all the settings in System Preferences > Displays > Arrangement tab.

When using Firefox, PDFs won't load natively on Mac Mountain Lion (10.8.2), even when all add-ons are disabled. No issue using Firefox on PC

Whenever I click on a web link, do download a PDF form, for example, I get this error message:
"We are sorry, but Adobe Reader is unable to show documents in this browser configuration.
Please use your browser to download this file and open it in Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat.
To avoid this message in the future, many browsers provide a way to turn off certain add-ons, and some are able to show this document natively. Please contact your browser vendor for more details."
This problem only manifested recently. I have recently added Adobe CS6, but the problem manifests itself even when this is disabled. Any help much appreciated.

The Adobe Reader plugin may not be working properly on Mac.

Disable the Adobe Reader plugin in Firefox (Tools > Add-ons > Plugins) and use the external Adobe Reader application or Preview application instead.

I've been using firefox as my browser for many years. Lately in the past 3 months, it will not open. When I click on the app, it only opens the program files wi

I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling firefox. I have a pc and use Windows Vista. Please help! Thanks!

A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

When using Firefox to access my Mobile Me e-mail account, since the recent Firefox update, I'm no longer able to attach a file to an e-mail. When I log in to my mobile me account with IE I can. Any ideas?

It stopped working this week, right I update to the latest version of Firefox. The system kept asking me about add-ons which hadn't done in the past.

You can check for problems caused by a recent Flash 11.3 update.
