Where are some of the right click menu options?

I started using firefox 4 and i noticed a lot of the options i used in the right click menu are now gone. I used to be able to right click on an annoying image on a webpage and click "block images from" and it would give me a message at the top saying it will not always block images from that web address. Is there somewhere to get this option back? Also i can no longer right click on a tab and bookmark it from that menu is there a way to get this option back as well?

Sara, I started having the same problem yesterday. In my case I was able to remedy it by disabling FasterFox 3.9.81. If you don't have that installed, I would recommend turning off your extensions (one by one), restarting firefox, and testing until you find the offender. Hope that helps!

The right-click menu options "Open Link in New Tab" and "Open Link in New Window" are both not working suddenly.

I'm using version 15.0.1.
How can I get these options to work?
I searched for this question and found an answer was previously offered which was to uninstall the Ask toolbar due to incompatibility. I checked for this and I don't have it.

Is there any way of removing the browser buttons from the right click menu?

Recently when I right-click on a web page, there are browser buttons (forward, backward, refresh, bookmarks) on the right-click menu for some inexplicable reason. I mean, its kind of absurd that anyone would put browser buttons there, considering the real browser buttons literally right there at the top of the window, and I guess that kinda bugs me.
Anyway, how did I get rid of them? There doesn't seem to be any way to do so in the customize window, and I've been looking for an add-on but don't really know what to search for. Does anyone know?
Where did those come from anyway? They weren't there a week ago, and I'm pretty sure these things don't normally just pop up out of nowhere. If nobody knows, its really not important. The important thing is getting rid of them. Thanks!

That was a new feature in Firefox 32, which was released back in September. Use this UserStyle to get rid of those buttons and restore the text menu items.

Is there a way to open the right click menu on the left side of your pointer?

Whenever I try to right-click an object that's located on the right side of the screen, the pointer always automatically click whatever entry in the right-click menu which just happens to be under the pointer the moment the menu is opened. I noticed that the reason this happens is because the right click menu always forces itself to open on the right side of the pointer, and when there isn't enough space, the right-click menu will open underneath the pointer. Since this is horribly inconvenient, is there a way to open the right-click menu on the left side of your pointer?

Are you saying you have an icon on the far right side and when you rt click on it, your pointer ends up opening wherever it lands? That is a two step process, or normally should be at least a two step process. Do you have a Mouse in your Control Panel? You should check, because there may be some properties with which you can play. For instance, I can switch primary and secondary functions on my mouse buttons by checking a box.
When I rt click on right side, the menu opens on the left.
When I rt click on left side, the menu opens on the right.
In order for me to take an action, I then have to move to an area in that menu and click.
I hope I understood your question correctly.

HT201403 It would be very helpful for Apple to re-instate the view as icon option for a pdf file in an email on the right click menu? As far as I can see no easy way for a basic user to get this back?

Would be great for Apple to reinstate the pdf as icon in mail - but using the right click menu. It seems to have gone - and as a basic user there seems to be no simple solution - I used the rich/plain text swap but it didn't work...
Apple - we need you to solve!

http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html
It's highly doubtful that Apple will change this in Mac OS X 10.7 since that OS version has now been discontinued for quite some time. Whether they will change that in OS X 10.9 or a future version I can't say.
If this is a serious issue for you, you can look into Attachement Tamer:

It's not free, but it addresses much more than the issue of PDFs appearing as images, not icons, so it might be worth the price.

Reader 9 - "Print" and "Open with Adobe Reader..." options are missing from the right-click menus.

Since upgrading from Reader 8 to Reader 9, Windows XP users are no longer able to right-click 1 or more PDF files from Windows Explorer and choose either "Print" or "Open with Adobe Reader...". Those options are no longer listed in the right-click menu. We have experienced this on several computers. I downgraded a PC to Reader 8, and these options re-appeared, then disappeared again when I upgraded back to Reader 9.

Could you tell me which version of Reader 9 you are installing?
Please give the exact version it is showing you from Help | About Adobe Reader.

I was on facebook and deleted an icon by using the right-click menu but then all my pictures and all profile pictures, could no longer be seen. I was able to view them in Explorer so this is something I did in Firefox. How can I unblock a site?'

'''I was on facebook and deleted an icon by using the right-click menu but then all my pictures and all profile pictures, could no longer be seen. I was able to view them in Explorer so this is something I did in Firefox. How can I unblock a site?'''

If you select that right-click context menu entry then you block all images from that domain and not one specific image, so do not use that.
* Check the exceptions in Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions (e.g. sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net)
You can use these steps to check if images are blocked:
* Open the web page that has the images missing in a browser tab.
* Click the website favicon ([[Site Identity Button]]) on the left end of the location bar.
* Click the "More Information" button to open the "Page Info" window with the Security tab selected (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
* Go to the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
* Select the first image link and scroll down through the list with the Down arrow key.
* If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

The right click menu pops up after I push the right mouse button, instead of when I release it.

I am using an extension All-In-One Gestures. It works on my other installation of Firefox 4 - particularly, the right-click menu pops up if I click right mouse button and then release it so I can perform gesture or turn the wheel instead of getting a right click menu.
But on this installation (basically the same addons and OS), the right-click menu pops up on pushing down the right mouse button so the right-button+wheel gestures do not work, and the menu stays there while I am performing the gesture which is rather annoying.
So I though maybe there is some obscure configuration option to toggle to make right-click menu pop up after the button release? Or is this entirely the extension's fault? Note that it does work as expected on other installation...

You have to enable in Firefox
-> Options -> Content -> Activate JavaScript (yes) -> More
-> Allow scripts the following actions
-> Inactivate or replace context menu (yes)
in order to allow All-in-one-Gesture to block the immediate appearance of the context menu.
If you forbid Firefox JavaScript and/or the manipulation of the context menu by use of JavaScript, All-in-one-Gesture cannot work properly.

How to remove the option "Set as default background..." from the right-click menu on a picture, for all users.

Hi! I would like to know if there is any possibility to remove the option "Set as default background..." from the right-click menu on a picture, for all users. I know that's possible to edit userContent.css or userChrome.css, but this concerns only a profile at a time and being in a domain, I would like to set this for all people using Firefox.
Can it be possible to edit a mozilla.cfg file to get the same result?
Thank you in advance for help and tips.

AFAIK then there is no way to do that system wide. You can only do that via userChrome.css or an extension like the Menu Editor per profile .You can install extensions globally, but the user will have to enable them anyway. That is not required for userChrome.css code.

A long left click shows the right click menu

When I hold down the left mouse button, the right click menu appears.
I want to turn off this function, but can't remember which extension controls it or whether the function is built in to Firefox.

Hooray!! Found it! Thank you Google.
I found an old - very old - thread on Mozillazine.org:
http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=340572
And it IS a normal Firefox feature, but is normally OFF.
I think I must have recently turned it on after reading a "Firefox Tips and Tricks" article somewhere.
Anyway, the preference is called "ui.click_hold_context_menus".
And I just remembered that I added it in my "user.js" preferences file, amongst a load of others:
* Disable the Delay When Installing New Extensions
user_pref("security.dialog_enable_delay", 0);
* To turn off the URL greying
user_pref("browser.urlbar.formatting.enabled", false);
* To unhide the "http" portion of a URL
user_pref("browser.urlbar.trimURLs", false);
* Enable spell checker in multi-line text boxes & single-line text boxes
user_pref("layout.spellcheckDefault", 2);
* Double underline style
user_pref("ui.SpellCheckerUnderlineStyle", 4);
* Cycle through open tabs with Ctrl+Tab
user_pref("browser.ctrlTab.previews", false);
* Disable Animations for Full Screen
user_pref("browser.fullscreen.animateUp", 0);
* Click and hold on a hyperlink to show the context menu
user_pref("ui.click_hold_context_menus", true);
* Instant Apply Preferences Without Closing Options Window
user_pref("browser.preferences.instantApply", true);
* Middle-click in any textfield, addressbar or searchbox to paste clipboard
user_pref("middlemouse.paste", true);
So there's a lesson to be learned here: don't add too many tweaks to your Firefox preferences at the same time or you may forget what you did!
Thanks, all. I'll now mark this as "Solved"!

Can I change the order of dictionaries in the right click menu?

Hi
This is a minor issue but I just wondered if it is possible to change the order of appearance of dictionaries in the right click menu in Firefox. I switch between Danish, English, German (Switzerland), and German (Germany) - in this order of importance - but the order in the right click menu is English, German (Germany), Danish, and German (Switzerland).
I tried installing them in the right order but that does not seem to have an effect.
Thank you

Not a default feature in Firefox. That is a feature of the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/search-in-google-scholar/?src=search Google Scholar 1.0.2 extension] I would guess. No information is provided by the developer on the download page and no support site or contact information was provided here - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/user/vpiras/
Have you looked in the Add-ons Manager to see if there is an '''Options''' button for that Extension?
