When I try to bookmark a web page, Firefox will frequently save the bookmark to the default location, before I have finished typing the description

To bookmark a page, I click on the BOOKMARK menu, then click on BOOKMARK THIS PAGE. I start typing the description of the page in the NAME field.
Frequently, before I can finish typing the description, Firefox will close the popup window, saving the bookmark to the default location. At this point, I repeat the procedure to add a bookmark, finish typing the description, and specify the correct folder location.

'''bold text'''I've tried several different virtual pdf printer applications including:
Foxit pdf printer
doPDF v 7
Nitro PDF driver v5
NovaPDF
Simpo PDF Creator
qvPDF
Virtual PDF Printer
I took screenshots of the same small section of a sample pdf file saved to pdf using the virtual pdf printer freeware doPDF v7.
Both test screenshots were taken on the same computer, a laptop running Vista Home Premium.
You can clearly see the problem!

Macbook Pro has good internet connectivity, but when I try to open a web page it will not open

I have good internet connectivity but cannot open any webpages , since I cleared all History. Also System is slow - spinning pinwheel spins forever!

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

When I try to print from web page I get "printer not activated - error code 30", printer works on Internet Explorer

When I try to print from web page I get a dialogue box "Printer not activated - error code 30" followed by a dialogue box "An unknown error occurred while printing". The printer works on websites when I use Internet Explorer. Also, if I copy the web page and paste it into a Word document, I can print a copy. This issue just started this week; I have not encountered this problem prior to this week. Please advise.

What does that error message say?

No preview or preview button appears when I try to print a web page, as it does for any other file. How can I arrange for preview?

n the dialog box that appears when I try to print any web page, there is neither a preview nor a preview button, (although there is a preview if I open the web item as a pdf file, but that takes an extra step. A preview appears when I print any other file on my computer (a Macbook). Is there a setup procedure that will give a preview when printing one or several web pages?

The Print button in the "3-bar" Firefox menu button drop-down list opens the Print Preview window.
You can click the Print button in the Print Preview window or use the Print item in the File menu (File > Print) or use the Ctrl+P shortcut to have access to the print selection item and other print setup options.

Try a hard reset of your iPod. To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

When I try to print a web page, all I get is one line across top of page.

When I try to print a web page in Firefox, the only thing that prints is a single line across the very top of the page. I can sometimes highlight and print my selection, but now that has stopped working.

I did not have the HP printer software for Mac OSX installed properly. Once installed the problem went away.

Why does google start up but when i try to access a web page it shuts off

why does google start up but when i try to access a web page it shuts off

Not entirely sure what you mean, but if you are saying that the Safari screen is frozen/inactive then try clearing its cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies And Data (Clear Cache on iOS 4) and also Clear History
If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

After installing the newest update, when I try to open a saved page Firefox only opens the homepage. Reset didn't help.

I am a web designer. I have saved pages that I update and upload to websites all the time. Now, after the latest updates, when I try to open these saved pages it only opens Firefox and loads the homepage. The saved page does not open. If I'm to keep using Firefox, which I would prefer, I need this functionality back.

What do you have set up as the default application for .html files? Or are you opening another kind of file that isn't normally/automatically associated with Firefox?
If you drag and drop the file onto a tab (which normally would replace the page there with the local file), what happens?
</blockquote>
I had tried all the suggestions. None of they helped. I can open the files by browsing for they after Firefox is open. I was able to spend some more time troubleshooting the issue yesterday afternoon. The issue has to do with the 64-bit file system. When I right click and select open with and then point it to the installation folder in the Program Files (x86) folder, it still won't open the file just opens to my home page. I did notice that when I was browsing for Firefox.exe that it defaulted to the Program Files folder not the Program Files (x86) folder. So I renamed the exe to LittleFox.exe and browsed for that exe and Firefox would then open the files as expected. So my guess is that it is a registry setting that is all the headache. I don't have time to run that problem down but will just use my workaround by renaming a copy of the exe and use that with my file association.
Thanks

Firefix stops responding when I try to open a web page

The Firefox browser page turns white & says not responding when I try to go to a web page. This happens every time I try to go to a web page in a new tab. This only started happening after I did the last Firefox update.

Did you try to perform the solutions mentioned in the following sections ??
-> Firefox did not shut down normally

Check and tell if its working.

When I try and print a web page in the print screen ALL the Print Frame options are greyed out. It won't let me print a page as I see it. I need to pring a page as is. How do I do it in the new 8.0??

I go to print and try to select the radio button to print all frames, but It's not working

The '''Print Frames''' options are greyed out unless the web page is made with Frames. I-Frames don't work the same.
Check out this '''''frames test page''''' - http://www.draac.com/framestest.html <br />Is the '''Print Frames''' part of the print dialog box active?
As far as printing a page as you see it, many web pages use '''print.css''' files for print-media. The print.css specifies exactly what is to be sent to the printer and it can control the formatting of the printed page.

How can I deactivate the FAX modem menu which appears when I try to print a web page?

I have a PC that is not connected to a telephone and I have never selected the FAX icon. Two weeks ago I was suddenly unable to print web pages because a menu concerning setting up a FAX modem appears when I push the Print command. On the Printers and Devices page the FAX icon is not selected. How can I deactivate the FAX menu?

You can use this extension to modify the menu.
*Menu Editor: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/menu-editor/
You can also achieve this with code in the userChrome.css file below the default @namespace line.

When I try to print from web page I get "printer not activated - error code 30", but I can copy text into Word document & printer works.

I am unable to print anything from an internet web page. I continually get "printer not activated, error code- 30" followed by "An unknown error occurred while printing". I can copy the material from the web page, place into a Word document and then print. This just started yesterday and I have no idea why. Would appreciate your advice!
