Why does Firefox not include FOX NEWS in their pre-loaded "News" tab on the toolbar???

There are 9 different "news" sources. It seems that everybody is so biased against Fox News, yet they produce legitimate news as every other network. Please change this, Firefox, for all your users.

Who makes your mouse? Is it a Logitech? If so, please see this post: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=206293

  • Want new tab to open to home page and why does firefox not have a simple check box in the options because I can't keep going through a long procedure each time

    I want new tab to open to home page and why does firefox not have a simple check box in the options because I can't keep going through the long tedious procedure each time I install firefox. It is something that should be in the options tab , and I want to know why it isn't. I am totally frustrated with firefox and getting ready to switch.

    You can use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.
    *https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
    Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
    If you do not keep changes after a restart or otherwise have problems with preferences, see:

  • Why does Firefox not work here in China anymore, since January of 2015?

    I have used Firefox for years, as the fastest and most reliable browser for me, esp in China... not anymore! Last month (unknown to me) a hijacker called Vosteran took over my Firefox browser. I finally realized it and got it cleaned up using Malwarebytes anti-malware, and downloaded a new Firefox... now SAME problem exists, even with Vosteran removed!
    Firefox will not allow me into ANY normal sites, saying they don't have the proper security code. This includes my Yahoo front page, email account, ESPN and other common sites that are certainly NOT dangerous. So, WHY does Firefox not work anymore? It is useless to me here in China the way it works now.

    hello rickinchina, first please make sure that the '''date, time & timezone''' are set correctly on your system and that firefox is set to directly connect to the internet (that's the "'''no proxy'''" setting in the firefox ''menu ≡ > options > advanced > network > connection - settings...'').
    if this doesn't solve the issue (or it is already set properly), a possible solution depends on different factors:
    * what is the '''error code''' shown under ''technical details'' on the error page?
    in case the error code equals ''sec_error_unknown_issuer'', please attempt to add an exception on the bottom of the error page (but don't do it for real) and inspect the certificate (see the screenshot attached for instructions):
    * which '''issuer information''' does the certificate contain?
    please report back with those two pieces of information. thank you!

  • Why does IBA not include the table of contents when exporting to PDF?

    Why does IBA not include the table of contents when exporting in PDF? I can seee the TOC in iBooks Author but when I want to see what it looks like in a regular PDF, the TOC does not show up.

    Strange question you ask here. Not sure why that is relevant to "why" IBA won't publish a table of contents in a PDF.
    But since eyou asked, it's simple, I want to author some books in IBA and also see what they look like - completed - in PDF. Again, any suggestions as to a work around so I don't have to cut and paste back into Pages?

  • Why is Firefox not included in a number of key functions

    I find, especially on the PC but the Mac also that Firefox is left out of a number of things to activate functions and one system went so far as to say due to Firefox's limitations etc but I've had now on numerous occassions this happen.
    Is Firefox not as robust as the other browsers;
    Thanks
    Kerry

    The Screencasts site checks your browser and blocks Firefox. If I lie to the site and tell it I'm using Chrome, then the video plays for me on Windows 7. As you can see in the screenshot attached, it's an MP4 video, and that probably explains why they're blocking Firefox.
    To make a long story short, Firefox does not include certain patented technologies required for playing MP4s without a plugin, and depends on software on your system. On Windows, native MP4 support was added in 2013 (more recently for XP), and for Linux it was added this year.
    I think native MP4 support for Mac is still in the works. But the site ''could'' play MP4 on Mac using a plugin. I guess they prefer to have you download it rather than do that, which is not very convenient.

  • Why does Firefox not allow me to go to Facebook, consistently says "untrusted connection"??

    I have read through all of the responses to this exact questions posed by other users and nothing is working. What is the most frustrating is that this is not a constant issue. One minute I will be logged onto Facebook and when I try to visit a friends page or post something it will freeze, then the "untrusted connection" comes up. Or it will be working fine for a couple hours and I will log off of Facebook, when I come back a few hours later, or even a few minutes later I get the "untrusted connection" warning again. This has happened more now that Firefox has been updated and it is also happening to my roommate. She will be logged onto Facebook and I will try and get the warning, or vice versa. We are in the same room on separate computers. This problem does not occur on Google Chrome or Internet Explorer. This is an issue with Firefox, not my computers. We have four computers (2 Desktops, 2 Laptops) in our home, my boyfriend works in IT. We have done everything suggested by the people here and nothing works. I would understand if it was happening to one computer constantly and you tried to tell me it was my computer, but that is not the case. This happens with all four computers at different times. How can one person be logged on to Facebook and another isn't, then an hour later it will work on the latter computer and not the one it was working on previously. This is very frustrating. I love using Firefox over Internet Explorer and Google Chrome, I trust it more. But this is getting ridiculous. It has been happening for a long time, it just got worse with the update. Please help. It happens with Google and other popular sites as well.

    This is what it says, every time for me
    ''''''''This Connection is Untrusted''''''''
    You have asked Firefox to connect securely to www.facebook.com, but we can't confirm that your connection is secure.
    Normally, when you try to connect securely, sites will present trusted identification to prove that you are going to the right place. However, this site's identity can't be verified.
    What Should I Do?
    If you usually connect to this site without problems, this error could mean that someone is trying to impersonate the site, and you shouldn't continue.
    ''''''Technical Details''''''
    www.facebook.com uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is only valid for the following names: *.akamaihd.net, *.akamaihd-staging.net, a248.e.akamai.net (Error code: ssl_error_bad_cert_domain)

  • Why does Firefox not respond to any commands (it wouldn't even want to close) when I try to watch a stremline video from a webpage although all video-plugins are updated? The problem occured spontaneously, no changes were made to the system/settings.

    Firefox does not crash but it 'freezes'. I cannot do anything with it then (it may be closed only from the task manager). Upon each subsequent opening the problem reappears (the fourth day in a row).

    Haroon mentions two solutions. I used the easier one, which is to start the Apache webserver already in Mountain Lion and to enable the php already in Mountain Lion. It worked. I see the file correctly displayed with html, css, and php. I see the page by using Firefox. I enter an address in the address bar. For example, the address might be "localhost/example/example.php". I cannot see the page by using Firefox's "Open File ..." menu option or by dragging the file's icon onto Firefox's icon. I tried using your solution also but was unable to find the specific preference to modify. I found the page of preferences which may be modified but I could not find the one I need. I found a list of descriptions of the preferences at http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_:_FAQs_:_About:config_Entries
    but I could not find the specific preference which I need.
    By the way, to enable loading the php module, one uncomments a line of code by deleting the initial "#" character, and one does that by pressing control key and "P" key while the cursor is over the "#" character.
    Also by the way, when I use Firefox or Safari to look at the Apache web directory in which my files are, the files are listed case sensitively. For example, the files are listed: Ace, Zygote, bar. This is because lower case follows upper case. THis annoys me. I prefer case insensitive listing. When I llok directly athe directory without using a browser, the files are listed case insensitively. For example, they are listed: Ace, bar, Zygote. I guess taht Apache is doing this.

  • Why does Firefox sometimes still tell me that I have cache to clear in the Advanced tab of the Options menu after I completely clear it using Clear Recent History?

    I always have the time range in the Clear Recent History window set to "Everything", too.

    While I didn't know about the about:cache page, it doesn't help me understand why Firefox is doing this, and how to fix it. Also, as I said in my question, I already knew about the cache information in the Advanced tab of the Options menu. I was trying to imply that I sometimes have to clear it using both the Clear Recent History feature and in the Advanced tab of the Options menu, because using Clear Recent History doesn't delete it all.

  • Why does Firefox not support flash in Vista any more?

    I have a laptop with Vista on it and all year long I have had a hell of a time putting up with the new glitches in Firefox.
    I simply want the damn thing to be able to use the flash plugin. Every single ******* time Firefox updates, I lose the ability to view flash content. Clicking on the "install missing plugins" logo takes me through *seemingly* successful installs, but it doesn't really install and the next time I load firefox it still says "click here to install missing plugin."
    I have also downloaded the executable from adobe and run that (as an administrator, with firefox closed out) and I still get a *successful* installation that results in total failure, e.g. it's still not installed.
    Several firefoxes ago I found a website where I could download the two files needed (the dll and the other file) and I manually placed them in the plugins folder which allowed me to use flash until the damn update to the next firefox release wiped it out. The place I downloaded those files from no longer hosts them, so I'm SOL.
    Please either start to support Vista again, or declare that you aren't going to. I'm sick and tired of firefox nowadays, even though I've been using it since before version 1.1.
    Please, please, please just fix this problem.

    There are 2 versions of Adobe Flash; an '''ActiveX version''' for IE only and a '''Plugin version''' for most other browsers including Firefox. On a Windows system, you should always update both individually. '''''You do not have the Plugin version installed in Firefox; if you did, you would see "Shockwave Flash (version)" in Add-ons > Plugins.'''''
    #'''Using Firefox''', go to the following direct download link and SAVE the download to your desktop so you can find it later: http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe
    #When the download is finished, close Firefox (File > Exit '''''OR''''' Firefox button > Exit)
    #Click or double-click on the file you just saved to your desktop
    #*In the installation window that appears, click the box to the left of "I have read and...." to place a check mark in the box
    #*The "Install" button in the lower right corner will now be highlighted, click it.
    #*The installation is quick.
    #Start Firefox and test your installation here: https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
    #Direct link ActiveX version for IE '''''only''''': http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe
    <u>NOTE: You no longer need to place Flash components in the Mozilla Firefox\plugins folder. Doing so, will leave you with an outdated plugin and a possible conflict between competing versions of the Plugin.</u> Most current plugins are recognized by/installed into Firefox through Windows registry entries. In a clean installation of current Firefox versions, the plugins folder is no longer created in the Mozilla Firefox program application folder. However, the folder can be created and any plugins placed there will be used. It is best not to have the plugins folder unless absolutely necessary to make a particular plugin work.
    You can get both versions on the following page, but there is no link directly to it. Click on item ''6. Download and install Adobe Flash Player (Firefox)'' near the top of the page, then scroll down to "Advanced Troubleshooting" just following the Firefox information; the links are in item 1 under that heading:

  • Why does Firefox not display symbols and diacritic marks correctly in html pages

    I reset my profile because of a problem displaying a particular web page.
    I am now using the reset profile. Using this profile Firefox does NOT correctly display symbols and diacritic marks in my html pages. Such pages were correctly displayed in my old profile. They are pages containing text in French and Spanish.
    Examples: é «
    Why aren't the symbols and marks displaying correctly in a brand new profile when they displayed correctly in my old profile.

    What is View > Character Encoding set to? In my installation it's set to UTF-8.

  • Why does firefox not open the address in the browser window via dvd@ccess?

    I am building a dvd with dvd studio 4 latest version on a brand new MB Pro / Snow Leapard. dvd@ccess is enabled in dvd studio pro 4 as well as on my computer. The function opens a browser window, but firefox does NOT automatically type in the required address. Therefore the browser does not look it up. This is not likely related to dvd studio pro, since dvd@ccess links to mailto: with no problem, and entourage correctly opens a new mail with the proper address. Please help. Fast – I am supposed to deliver a project! Thanks ;-)

    Ok, well I found it quickly without really finding the source of the problem. I created my account here in order to post this problem, and when I received the account confirmation email to activate my account, clicking the hotlink opened a browser window WITHOUT the address! So I restarted firefox and lo and behold, I could confirm my account via the hotlink and dvd@ccess now works, even in the dvd studio pro simulator. Why this bug appeared remains to be answered. Thanks and good luck.

  • Why does firefox not load my yahoo toolbar that I have personalized with my apps. I am so try of this crap! What is the problem?????

    When I load Firefox my Yahoo toolbar with all my links that I use does not load! I've been dealing with this for a long time! And as much as I hate Internet Explorer, you are forcing me to go back to it after 3 years with Firefox! Why dose your program have to be so uncooperative. If I can't access my program with ease, what good are you? I don't have this problem with IE. I have been using Firefox because it's so much faster than IE. But If I have to waste all this time trying to re-install Yahoo toolbar or type in Internet addresses, You really are no better, even worse!

    '''Ya I also have the same problem. its working on I Explorer but I don't want to be so slow. '''
    plzz suggest me a solution.
    thanks.

  • Why does Firefox no longer scale its size correctly with my new Macbook Pro?

    hey folks, experiencing a weird issue and I'm not sure how to resolve it.
    I've been using Firefox as my default browser for about a year, love it. I had been using a late 2011 Macbook Pro, sometimes just as a laptop, sometimes attached to a 4 year old external monitor. No issues.
    A few weeks ago I switched to a new Macbook Pro with the retina display. When I use the laptop with my external monitor, the sizing of the app is all wrong. It's like super zoomed out. Web pages and text like the menus, bookmarks, etc..are so small I can't read them. When I use the laptop just as a laptop, sometimes Firefox looks ok, and sometimes it's showing this rendering problem.
    I tried launching Firefox in safe mode without my plethora of add ons, no change in behavior.
    I'm running what I think is the latest version of Firefox for the Mac, v 34.0.5. As an example, I could not read the version number, it was too tiny. I could see where it was so copied it and pasted it in here. And, I'm running the latest version of Yosemite, 10.10.1.
    I'd love to get Firefox working again, does anyone have any suggestions. Right now I've had to go back to Safari as my default browser, which is ok but I do prefer Firefox.
    One additional note: I'm not seeing this behavior with any other app. Everything else looks appropriately sized. The issue is only with Firefox. I appreciate any ideas any of y'all might have, thank you.

    One more thing: even though Firefox said it was up to date, it appeared the latest version was 35.0. So, I downloaded and installed that, thinking maybe a fresh install would remedy this problem. No joy, still looks the same.
    Bummer.
    I'm attaching a screenshot of how the browser looks, for reference.
