Why are all my plugins not starting when I start firefox normally?

When I start firefox, my plugins won't work. It used to work. When I open the add-ons window, it shows all the add-ons correctly but when I click options, it shows a very small window and no options.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).<br />
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]<br />
<br />
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.<br />
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.<br />
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

    Why are all urls coming up invalid when I am connected to my wireless network?

    First back up the registry
    Go to Start > Run --> type in regedit and hit OK. 
    Navigate to the key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\LocalSettings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\TrayNotify. 
    Delete the values IconStreams and PastIconsStream. 
    Open up the Task Manager, go to the Processes tab, select explorer.exe and click End
    Process. 
    Open the Applications tab and click New Task at the bottom-right of the window. 
    In the message box that pops up type in explorer.exe and hit OK. 
    Explorer.exe will reload, and the missing icons should now be back in the system-tray

  • Why are all jar files not compressed in the JRE installer?

    I used 7zip to unpack jre-6u12-windows-i586-p.exe (Oracle JRE Installer). On unpacking, I got a core.zip, a zipper.exe and a few other files.
    Again on exploding core.zip I found a few things. core.zip contains all the jar files just like it would be after installation except for 7 jar files.
    charsets.jar
    deploy.jar
    javaws.jar
    jsse.jar
    localedata.jar
    plugin.jar
    rt.jar
    Instead of these jar files there exists the corresponding packfiles
    charsets.pack
    deploy.pack
    javaws.pack
    jsse.pack
    localedata.pack
    plugin.pack
    rt.pack
    I think these are files created by pack200.exe & unpack200.exe is run on them after installation to create the corresponding jar files.
    So now I have a few questions
    Why are only these 7 files run through pack200.exe. I assume its because they are bigger than other files. But it wouldn't take that much effort to pack all jar files & unpack them after installation.
    The .pack extension suggests that these are packed but not gzipped. Again why would Oracle not do a gzip also? for eg with rt.jar packing reduces size from 45 MB to 12 MB, while adding gzip also reduces it to 6 MB.

    Whatever the truth of all this may be, you won't find it here. This is a user to user forum, not Oracle support or a channel to the developers. All you will get here at best is valid post hoc reasoning: at worst, guesswork. And if you're trying to bring this issue to Oracle's attention, again this isn't the place to do it.

  • Why are my sent items not stored when sending from Apple Mail?

    Hello Apple Support Communities,
    I am Using an iMac at my place of employment. It is running OSX Yosemite v10.10.2 . I am also using Apple Mail to connect to our Exchange 2010 Server. I do the same with my iPhone, iPad, and Windows Laptop using Outlook 2013. For a while now, several months in fact, It turns out that any emails sent from my iMac using Apple mail will not store a copy of it in my sent items on the server. They are not stored in the iMac account, the iPhone, the iPad, or Outlook on my Windows Laptop. However, any email sent from the other devices will have a copy stored in the sent items folder and it will propagate to all of my devices.
    Upon investigating, I found myself looking through the tracking logs of my Exchange Server and found that Apple Mail and the iPhone send messages completely differently. I think this might be the source of my problem, but I have no clue whether I can fix it, or even where to start. Here is an image depicting the logs. Any input would be appreciated. Thank you for your time!

    Sometimes this issue is caused by a misconfiguration or incompatibility of the Exchange server, or perhaps by a bug in Mail. If so, you won't be able to resolve it yourself. The fact that your iOS devices may be working well with the same account isn't relevant, because iOS uses a completely different protocol (ActiveSync) to communicate with Exchange servers. By default, OS X Mail uses the EWS protocol.
    Each of the following steps has been reported to help with Exchange issues, at least temporarily, in some cases:
    1. Back up all data. Open the Internet Accounts pane in System Preferences and check to make sure you don't have duplicate Exchange accounts. If you do, delete all but one of the duplicates. If there are no duplicates, delete the account and recreate it with the same settings. The messages will still be on the server.
    2. Rebuild the affected mailbox.
    3. Reindex messages.
    4. In the Keychain Access application, delete the password item for the account. The next time Mail tries to access the account, you'll be prompted for the password. Check the box to save it in the Keychain.
    5. If you've created subfolders of any Exchange mailbox, log in to the server through its web interface, move the messages out, and remove the subfolders. For best results, a mailbox should have no subfolders.
    6. Synchronize with the server using IMAP rather than EWS. This is only possible if IMAP is enabled on the server.
    7. Consider using Outlook instead of Mail to access your Exchange mail.

  • Why are all transferred files not accessible?

    I am linked to my iMac yet whenever I transfer files over I cannot open or change them without having to put in my administrator code. Why is that? I have put in my administrator name on this computer with the ability to read and write. I don't see why that is not recognized. Anyone else having this issue?
    Thanks,

  • Why are forms or passwords not filled, when I imported them from Safari?

    I've used the Import function to import "saved form history" from Safari, twice already, both times it says it completed the task, yet whenever I go to a site requiring passwords or forms filled out, nothing happens, & I must manually fill everything out! Why is this not working?

    The form history will not include passwords. Firefox can not access the passwords from Safari so can not import them.

  • My yahoo toolbar does not start when I start firefox I have to redownload it why?

    why does my yahoo toolbar not work when I start firefox? i HAVE TO RE INSTALL IT EVERY TIME.

    Have you checked that all your plugins are up to date? See here: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/use-plugins-play-audio-video-games?s=update+plugins&r=7&e=es&as=s#w_how-to-update-plugins]
    And updated all themes and extensions? See here:
    [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-extensions-themes-to-fix-problems?redirectlocale=en-US&redirectslug=Troubleshooting-extensions-themes#w_updating-extensions]
    You should also try [[Clear the cache - Delete temporary Internet files to fix common website issues|clearing the cache]] to see if that helps.
    I suspect that this is an issue with the Yahoo toolbar rather than Firefox. There are a number of user reviews complaining about various problems on the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/yahoo-toolbar/ add-on page]. Unfortunately yahoo don't seem to offer support for the toolbar product (other than yahoo answers). It might be worth asking there as well if none of the above works.
    If after trying all of this you can't get it to work then let me know. There may be other features in Firefox that you can use to cover the same functionality that the yahoo toolbar gives you. What particular features do you like about it?

    To answer the post title FireFox save all downloads automatically in the download folder, which you can find in the Documents folder. If you want to choose where to save your downloads go to tools>options>check always ask me where to save files.
    Secondly, I am assuming you have IE 8 installed as this is the only version that supports this fix that is currently not in beta. Go to control panel>internet options>advanced tab and reset the settings at the bottom. This may or may not fix the problem but it is a good first step.

    I am using a ~7 month old macbook air with mavericks.
    Any tips to get rid of this issue would be greatly appreciated.

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to gather information about the state of your computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it on this page. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the request of a stranger on a public message board. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
    Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed: Copy a line of text from this web page into the window of another application. Wait for the script to run. It usually takes a few minutes. Then paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page. The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. Details follow.
    4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply.
    6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking  anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in your browser, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
    8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
    exec bash
    and press return. Then paste the script again.
    9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know your password, or if you prefer not to enter it, just press return three times at the password prompt.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    10. The test will take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line "[Process completed]" to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report your results. No harm will be done.
    11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

    It may be in the process of making room.  What version of OSX are you on?    (That process can be excruciatingly slow on Leopard or Snow Leopard backups over a network;  Lion has improved it greatly.)
    A clue may be lurking in your logs.  Use the widget in #A1 of  Time Machine - Troubleshooting to display the backup messages from your logs.   That should help you figure out what's going on.  If in doubt, copy and post them here (but if the same ones repeat over and over, drop most of the duplicates).
    If you can, connect via Ethernet; it will be 2-3 times faster.
