When I upgraded to Firefox 4, the formatting of the Firefox home page and almost all other websites is incomplete with missing photos, check boxes, colors, etc. Ideas?????

The webpages are left with only basic formatting. I have removed the updated software and replaced it twice to no effect.

Make sure that you allow pages to choose their colors and that you haven't enabled High Contrast in the Windows Accessibility settings.
* Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Colors : [X] "Allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above"

I accidentally cleared all my cookies. Now I get the Japanese home page and I want ONLY the English home page. I was on the home page at the time & I copied the address. It is still in my preferences section. but even when I paste it in, I still get the Japanese site. How do I get the English site back, and ensure that I never see the japanese site on my computer ever again?

When I enter a search in the Mozilla Start Page and press enter the browser does nothing. It doesn't bring in any search results. I use Windows Vista pack2

I just upgraded Firefox for windows to version 21.0
After upgrading, when I enter a subject to search in the search box (in the middle of the page) of the Mozilla Start page and press enter nothing happens. It doesn't bring in any search results.
The only way to navigate using the browser is to enter the website name in the address box at the top of the page and press enter. I'm running the browser for Windows Vista - 32 bits.
I tried re-installing firefox and I got the same result. I also tried re-booting after installation and it still behaves the same way.
Please help,
Thank you,
Hektor

he man check here
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''

After uploading Firefox 18 the AOL Home Page has replaced my Firefox Home Page and I want to remove AOL Home Page

AOL has muscled in and replaced my Firefox home page as above with theirs without permission.
How do I permanently remove the AOL home page to the trash can?
And, if possible, give AOL a "rasberry" for their rudeness?
Thanks <<<< Peter Barrett

With the recent upgrade of Firefox, AOL has insisted to be the homepage. It does not matter whether you change it to be something else. After you change your homepage, somehow when you have to open another tab, aol will pop saying you have changed your homepage, but will not allow you to click anything until you say yes to returning it to aol. This IS so frustrating. I can't believe Mozilla is allowing it or does not know how to counter it.

Would like to go back to the basic home page, and get rid of my personas home page

''locking as a duplicate - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/787809''
I personalized my home page and lost the home icon, and also the back and forward arrows. I would like to go back to the original home page that I use to have when I first started using Firefox

I have received an email from a friend with a link which I clicked. It directed me to the google home page and I am now suspicious that it is a virus or a Trojan horse. I would know what to do on my PC but am new to Ipad. How can I check?

I have received an email from a friend with a link which I clicked. It took me to the google home page. I am now suspicious that my friend's email account has been hijacked and the link contained a virus or a Trojan horse. I would know what to do on my PC but am new to the IPad. Can any form of Trojan horse be planted on IOS 6 or am I worrying unnecessarily? Reassurance would be most welcome as I do use the IPad for checking bank details and web purchases. Thanks for any help.

PC virus won't run on iPad.

I lost all my passwords from the previous version of Firefox when I upgraded to Firefox 4. I have all the files. Is there any way to import them into Firefox 4?

Typically, when I have upgraded a program, all of the bookmarks, passwords, etc. have transferred to the newest version but, for some reason that did not happen with Firefox 4. I still have all my preferences files as they were moved to the trash. Is there any way I can import them back into the new version of Firefox as it is very frustrating to have lost them.

If you used the option to delete settings, or whatever it is worded when uninstalling, Firefox will remove all your important data information from profiles for all installed versions of Firefox, and you will then need luck and a file recovery utility to try to restore the information.
You mentioned files being moved to Trash, I was hoping you may still have the required original files. I use Windows XP, and I realise Macs use different locations for files, but I think the files have the same names.
See
*[[profiles]]

*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Recovering_a_missing_profile

Note the last article discusses problems when bookmarks are lost, and some of the possible reasons and solutions. Obviously I do not know what has actually happened in your case, and whether or not you used the delete option I initially mentioned.

When I upgraded to Mozilla 8, an add appeared on my browser page and the mozilla search bar is gone

I upgraded to firefox 8, then an add from mozilla popped up on my browser page and won't go away. I can no longer see my mozilla search bar due to the add being there.

I solved the problem by restarting Firefox in safe mode and choosing "restore default search engines" on the restart menu. You can restart in safe mode by choosing "restart with add-ons disabled" in the Help menu. Firefox will close, then a window opens with several options. The one on the bottom is "restore default search engines". Click it, then click OK.

My Firefox 8 for Mac no longer will launch properly. It opens, and immediately hangs before loading the home page and connecting to any website. Does anyone have any ideas about how to correct this? Thanks!

All I get is a blank home page, along with a spinning beach ball. I cannot open the preferences to try to clear the cache, and must force quit to get out of Firefox. I have tried clearing the cache from the Library, and trashed the preferences file. I uninstalled the application, and reinstalled a newly downloaded application. I have restarted the computer many times, and run the disk utility to repair permissions. Nothing has worked. I have not added or upgraded anything on my computer since Firefox was working just a few days ago. Safari works fine connecting to the web. I have read through most of the support documents at Firefox Help, but cannot find anything that addresses this specific problem of hanging immediately after launch.

I have the exact same problem--and it just started around November 11, 2011. I have rebooted, reinstalled, and relaunched many times and Firefox just hangs on launch. Spinning beach ball of death and all that.
I have not installed any new software or changed anything on my computer.
Using Mac OS X 10.6.8, Aluminum Mac with 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 8 GB RAM.

The letter"a" becomes seperated from its associated word, and is put onto a seperate line of its own. For instance, I open my Firefox home page, and ther I have my BT mail alerts. This is spread out as previously described. Any comments of fixes?

See above question

I alraedy allow pages to select their own font in the tools. When I open my firefox browser (home page) I get my personalised info, for example my BTyahoo mail preview. This is a typical example of letter seperation, with the letter "a" appearing on a different line. When I refresh the page using the firefox refresh button in the top left, this doesn't cure it, but when I use the refresh option in the btyahoo mail section, it refreshes to normal appearance. Could this have something to do with my recent Norton renewal?

When is Apple going to fix the new OS once and for all?

Since upgrading my iPhone to the new OS, I can no longer: Open internet links contained in emails/messages; set custom ring tones for my contacts (or more accurately, I can set them but the phone will not retain them); get pop-up reminders (even though they are properly set in my calendar); or use the Bluetooth feature to pair with the hands-free link in my car. Every one of these features worked flawlessly under the old OS. If Apple is not going to fix these issues, they should at least allow users to revert back to the old operating system. Am I the only one experiencing these types of issues and frustrations?

I am having none of these issues, nor is anyone I know.
Sorry
Have you tried a restore?

How do I get rid of yahoo and Pogo toolbars. They are not listed in my XP Windows programs, but they are on my firefox home page and interfere with my gmail use..

Both toolbars have uninstall instructions in their help section shown on the toolbars. I've pasted these in the trouble-shooting section below. When I try to find these programs at the START menu, either in my settings or in the "add/remove program" section of my Control Panel, they are not there. Both toolbars take prominence over gmail, which is my preferred toolbar for browsing, etc. So although I can do whatever I need to do, I first have to wend my way through Pogo's face page and then yahoos intrusion on web sites. Why can't I get rid of these two toolbars? I never intentionally asked for them and I'm still not sure how they were authorized to be there, although it is obvious that I must have done it.

it wasnt listed at ALL on my toolbars, and when i originally open firefox, the first page is google. when id start a new tab however, this stupidness was there. i had to go into Control Panel->Internet Properties and change it there. Hope it helps you also :)

How can I get my bookmarks to display automatically, as vertical list on my Firefox home page (and every other site that I visit)?

I have tried to accomplish this via the Firefox "View," "Bookmarks," and "Tools" menus---to no avail.

There's a work around, although it's not perfect. Go to your photos app, choose the image you want for wallpaper. Tap on the little box with the arrow poking out of it, send to wallpaper. then you can scale and move a bit to get your image closer to what you want.
It's still not perfect. Basically it scales your image so that it fits the whole screen, which means if your image is wider than your screen, you can just slide it left or right, but you do have more control than if you go through the settings.
