Where did the firefox icon go mine is grey icon on the home page I am using 15.0.1 version

I am using v 15.0.1 fire fox on my windows xp desk top. ( I am useing my tablet to help me figure out whats going on with my desktop computer) and I noticed that in the web browser window where you type your url address the icon I thought was to be perhaps a small icon of the fre fox on the home page..... Now I see it is grey or ghosted out....... the following pages that I go to sometimes has a grey or ghosted out paddle lock.... If the web site does not contain any personal information it is the grey out icon of the Fire fox or what ever it is and if I left click on it it will state that this web site does not supply idnenty information Your connection to this site is only partially encrypted, and does not prevent eaves dropping the there is a more infor tab so whatis theis all about how can I get it to be fully encripted and not have a third party eavses dropping in on me? thanks for your help

  • I guess this is a "settings" question. I have tried all of the fixes you suggest to get rid of the "Firefox Was Recently Updated" window popping up as my home page. Anything else to try.

    My normal home page no longer comes up when I start browsing. Your introductory page comes up and stays up, along with asking me a question about allowing information gathering.

    That probably won't help if you have other software running that is protecting the file(s) in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    Which security software (firewall, anti-virus) do you have?<br />
    Does it have any virtualization or sandbox features?
    You can try to boot windows in Save mode (F8 on boot screen) to see if that makes it possible to remove the file.
    You can also try a new profile to see if that works.<br />
    See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

  • Firefox will not support web dynpro on my employers home page and it use to

    My employer uses web dynpro and has for awhile now. When I try and look at my our e-payroll site it says my browser does not support web dynpro.... why now when it always worked before???

    I had this problem as well, but was able to solve it using this procedure:
    - Close firefox from the menu (don't use the 'x' as firefox may continue to run in memory for a while)
    - in your start menu, enter the following into the "run" prompt: firefox.exe -P
    - The firefox profile manager will open (see attached image)
    - In my case I deleted the "default" profile because I didn't care about losing any settings. You may want to simply create a new profile instead in case you need to save your settings.
    - To avoid being asked about which profile to be used you can highlight your new profile and then make sure the "Don't ask at startup" checkbox. When ready, press the "Start Firefox" button.
    - Voila! That fixed it for me. Like I said, I just created a new "default" profile and everyone worked fine for me; use your own judgement here.
    Good luck!

  • What's with the new Firefox 8.0? I made the mistake of updating mine and about 30% of the icons in bookmarks disappeared. It looks like you are requiring a favicon. Anyway, BAD IDEA!!!!!

    Briansyddal - you might be able to manage your phone without a PC, but many of us can't, especially those of us with large iTunes libraries.  How do you propose I manage my 250GB of music using only a phone?  Maybe I could go out and buy 10 iPhones and spread my library out among them!
    Catz537 - I have the same problem as you and I've spent hours on the web trying to find a solution to it.  It was a problem with iOS 7 and  8.1.1 doesn't fix it.  The the only advice from Apple is completely useless because it requires you, effectively, to delete and recreate your iTunes library and lose all your metadata, album art, notes etc and there's also no guarantee it will work.   I wish I could be more help (even more - I wish Apple could be more help) - I updated to 8.1.1 at 1400 today.  At 2200 I'm still "waiting for changes to be applied" for a measly 16GB of music transfer. 

  • Where did my synced files go? I synced them on the tablet, now I want to get them on my PC

    Where did my synced files go? I synced them on the tablet, now I want to get them on my PC
    How do I access them?

    Via Creative Cloud.
    One caveat: If you want to work with PS Touch's native file format (which is PSDX), you'll have to have Photoshop CC (or CS) and the PSDX plug-in.
    Another option would be to export any projects as the PSD file format and open those in Photoshop or Photoshop Elements. If you import these back into PS Touch, note that PSD files will be automatically flattened.

  • Even after uninstalling, reinstalling Firefox, the Firefox profile folder is empty, and I get the message "Firefox is still running and not responding close firefox...

    Even after uninstalling, reinstalling Firefox, the Firefox profile folder is empty, and I get the message "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system." I have followed all the directions I can find, on my computer and Firefox Support. Still, the same message comes up, and "firefox" is not shown in my Windows Task Manager.
    What can I do?

    Delete the profiles.ini file and let Firefox create a new default profile.

  • I have just changed to Firefox from IE. When i pull up my home page which is the BBC.co.uk I have always to reset my local region as it always defaults to London. I didn't have this problem with IE. Can you please supply a solution, thank you

    I fixed it!!! Following advice from similar posts, I searched the hard drive for "sessionrestore.js" in my Firefox Profiles folder (you'll need to enable viewing of hidden files in Windows Explorer (Tools > Folder Options > View (then select Hidden files option) then Apply to all folders) to do this). I then shut down Firefox, deleted the file and restarted - my home page was correct and it didn't try to open my old session! Some other posts suggested deleting everything called "sessionrestore" in that folder, but I didn't need to.

  • URGENT - Is the SPDIF Tab supposed to be greyed out on the Titanium HD? Mine is...

  • I have an older G5 tower Power PC and the OS 10.5.8, but the firefox and safari browers are no longer supporting this computer. How can I download an older version that works with this computer?

    Or what is the newest OS system I can load onto this computer?
    I think it is from 2006

    Hello,
    10.5.8 is the highest OSX it can run.
    TenFourFox is the most up to date browser for our PPCs, they even have G4 & G5 optimized versions...
    http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
    I'd avoid vesrion 24 though, as it no longer supports plug-ins like Flash.
    SeaMonkey seems pretty fast also, with many options...

    Might also look into iCab & OmniWeb versions.

    the problem started when my computer screen broke from something falling on it, the screen was replaced but the people that fixed it for me told me there may be some hard disk issues when a problem like this happens, they ran their own checks and found nothing and i was given my laptop back, then when i tried to use it, i found this problem. everything else works fine.
    i have shutdown and re-started my computer multiple times and i have also re-started finder multiple times, both having no effect
    i have also done a few other things to find that my apple.com.finder.plist and apple.com.sidebar.plist are both missing, and are not re-creating themselves, i have found no way to bring them back either.
    any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks

  • Using time warner road runner. when I try to open up safari to home page I get error message that this version does not support the "community toolbar" can't proceed until closing the error message. sick of seeing it

    using time warner road runner. when I try to open up safari to home page I get error message that this version does not support the "community toolbar" can't proceed until closing the error message. sick of seeing it

    That toolbar/ct plugin seems to cause problems for all who install it!
    Close Safari, then locate and delete the following files and it should be gone:
    /Library/Application Support/Conduit
    /Library/InputManagers/CTLoader
    /Library/Receipts/ctloader.pkg
    /Library/Receipts/<Toolbar name>.pkg
    /Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/CT2285220.bundle
    /Users/<User name>/Library/Application Support/Conduit
    where / is the root library on your Hard Disk.
    If you are running Snow Leopard you should also look here:
    Library/launchAgents/com.conduit.loader.agent.plist
    Library/Application support/conduit plugins
    Also, as mentioned by Gilli2000:
    Library/Receipts - If you read it, it has information in it at the bottom referring extensively to "CT" and "community toolbar".
    Maybe it is harmless, but trash those items anyway!
    Note: Safari does not support any third-party toolbars except those supplied as an extension to Safari via the Extension Gallery.

  • Just updated to 7.0.1 for Mac Snow Leopard, but the icon in my dock isn't the firefox symbol, it's a "document" icon. How can I get the firefox icon in my dock again?

    I was given an auto-update message from Firefox, which asked me to restart the program to initiate the update. As soon as Firefox restarted, I got a weird document icon in my dock - in the place where the Firefox icon was moments before. The new update of Firefox seems to be working just fine, but I would like the Firefox icon in my dock and not this unrelated icon. Can you help, please?

    I had this problem. Re-instal Firefox. After you drag the Firefox icon in to the Applications icon it is going to ask you if you're sure that you want to replace the version that's there - say yes. Then go down to your dock and remove the Firefox icon - drag it off the dock so it "poof!s" away. You can now put the icon on your dock again from your newly updated version. If that doesn't fix it drag it off the dock again, probably no need to re-update for the third time. Fixed it for me anyway. GL!

  • I do not have the Firefox feature in upper screen, only icon, and does not give me options as shown in video

    When clicking the icon in upper left screen, the only options I have are move, maximize, minimize and close.

    That is the windows icon on the title bar that opens the system menu.
    You see the orange (on Linux gray) Firefox button if the Menu Bar is hidden (View > Toolbars > Customize or right-click a toolbar).
    You can hide or make the Menu bar visible via View > Toolbars or via Firefox > Options.
    If you need to access the hidden Menu bar then press F10 or tap the Alt key to make the Menu Bar appear temporarily.

  • How to change the Firefox UI in Ubuntu to look more like the Windows Version?

    Pretty much to summarize, I am a Google Chrome user who wants to give Firefox a try. I am on Ubuntu 11.04. Ubuntu originally came with Firefox, but when I installed the Oxygen icon theme, I then opened up Firefox, and thought ''"bleuch"''. The icons and UI was ugly, so I kept on with Chrome. A little while later, I installed Firefox on my laptop which runs Windows 7, and I was surprised at how much better it looked. I assumed it had something to do with the version of Firefox, so on my linux machine, I downloaded the 6.0 version, but it still looks the same. It's missing the pretty "Firefox" System menu at the top, the back and forward buttons were still hideous, etc. So my question is, how do I get Firefox to look the way it does in Windows?

    The '''Menu Bar''' is one of the toolbars along with Navigation toolbar and Bookmarks toolbar. The '''Menu Bar''' is where the File Edit View Bookmarks Tools Help menus are located.
    If you hide (uncheck) the '''Menu Bar''' then it will collapsed into a button much like the orange Firefox button on Windows.
    Maybe you need a picture.
