Why does Sync not always load, or for that matter, the personal addons page?

For all of the betas, including Minefield, every so often Firefox features do not seem to load. The Add-ons Manager will stay "blank", despite the columns loading, just nothing inside. And thus I am said when this happens. Any ideas?

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in (permanent) Private Browsing mode (Never Remember History).
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Private+Browsing
*Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history"
*Deselect: [ ] "Always use private browsing mode"
You can check the browser.sessionstore.* prefs on the <b>about:config</b> page and reset user set (bold) browser.sessionstore.*prefs to the default value via the right-click context menu to make sure that Session Restore is enabled and working properly.

    Why does favicon not always download on PC ... whereas it does on Mac?

    Hello,
    '''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.''
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
    Thank you.

  • Why does Verizon not support Windows 8 for wi fi?

    Why does Verizon not support Windows 8 for wi fi?  Are they planning on supporting Windows 8?

    Verizon wi fi for hot spots does not work with Windows 8.  For verification go to FAQs about Verizon Wi-Fi for FiOS Internet,

    Since you can't even download the wi fi for hot spots software if you have Windows 8, I don't know how to use compatability mode to get around the problem,

  • 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:

  • TS4062 I've done all of these recommended steps.  My problem is that I have a new laptop that I am trying to sync my iPhone (and iPad for that matter) via Wi-Fi but both devices are looking for the old laptop to sync.  Any other suggestions?

    I've done all of these recommended steps.  My problem is that I have a new laptop that I am trying to sync my iPhone (and iPad for that matter) via Wi-Fi but both devices are looking for the old laptop to sync.  My iTunes is version 11.0..3.42, iPhone is 6.1.4, and iPad 6.1.3.  Any suggestions?

    All I had to do was complain.  I synced my iPhone to the Windows machine, checked the other account at iTunes prompting (where no apps had shown up previously), reconnected the iPad, and 140 apps downloaded including the App Store.  I have no idea why.

  • Why does iphone not always pick up signal in new city?

    I just flew to Vegas, Phoenix and Atlanta. Each time, iphone did not acquire signal on landing for minutes (at least), but immediately picked it up when I powered down and powered back on. What is the technical reason for this, and why does turning the phone off and on help to re-establish connection? I realize this issue is not unique to iphones, but I've never understood why it happens.

    palmerimoots,
    Whether or not GSM signals from any cellular phone will cause a plan to crash is not the point. The point is the FAA requires devices that have not been certified by the FAA not radiate in any radio frequency. Airplane mode was designed to comply with those rules and regulations. I don't have confirmation, but comparing my battery life on a trip this last week to my mothers to back in late July the iPhone seemed to have better battery life in a No Service area. I personally suspect that after being in a No Service area for a while the iPhone will stop searching as frequently. When you power off the iPhone or put it in Airplane mode for a few minutes and then come out of Airplane mode the iPhone will search for signal.
    There is a limited waiver in place for WiFi for some airlines that are experimenting with offering WiFi, but that does not extend to the GSM frequencies.
    Hope this helps,
    Nathan C.

  • HT4759 WHy does Apple not support iCloud bookmarks for 64bit firefox?

    I use 'Nightly' the "unofficial" official 64 bit version of firefox and the iCloud bookmarks plugin is not compatible. Why is this unsupported?

    Follow these steps to fix the issue...
    Go to https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/icloud-bookmarks/
    Right-click on "+ Add to Firefox" and select "Save Link As..."
    Save the file to your desktop
    Rename the file to add the .zip extension (eg icloud_bookmarks-1.4.14-fx-windows.xpi.zip)
    Open the zip file
    Extract the install.rdf file and open it with notepad
    Remove the whole following line to allow it to work in a 64bit browser
    <em:targetPlatform>WINNT_x86-msvc</em:targetPlatform>
    Change the following line from...
    <em:maxVersion>31.*</em:maxVersion>
    to something like...
    <em:maxVersion>99.*</em:maxVersion>
    Save the file, and update the zip file with the one we just fixed
    Delete the META-INF folder, otherwise during installation it will detect install.rdf has been modified
    Rename the file back to .xpi (eg icloud_bookmarks-1.4.14-fx-windows.xpi)
    Open this file with Firefox, it should install the addon fine now
    Open the iCloud Control Panel settings, and enable Firefox bookmark syncing.
    If you don't want to do this yourself, I've made the file available to download here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/rgfodf7ualt0wdw/icloud_bookmarks-1.4.14-fx-windows.xpi ?dl=0

  • Why does Spaces not always show apps in the designated space?

    HI.
    I have 2 spaces defined. Space 1 is for xcode. Space 2 is for Interface Builder. When in space 1 and using xcode I open a xib file. It opens in space 2 with Interface Builder, just like it should. However when I open another xib file from space 1 it displays in space 1 and not in space 2.
    Before a clean instal of SL it always opened in the correct space.
    Is this a bug or is there a magic setting somewhere?
    Also how do you manually move views to other spaces?

    What happens if you open the xib from IB via space 2 thereafter? Does that xib behave the same each time it is re-opened?
    Have you emptied Xcode's caches specifically during your tests?

  • Wireles sync not found in options for any of the "syncable" modules

    When syncing, I get a message that my Outlook calendar can't be synced because Wireless is turned on.  Help tells me "

  • Why can you not use Apple Pay for purchases in the App Store or iTunes?

    To make a purchases in the App Store or iTunes, it appears you can only pay by entering Mastercard, Visa, Discover, or AmEx information.   If you select none and try to make a purchase, you will again be prompted to enter this information.  I would like to use my Apple Pay account to pay for Apps/tunes, but that doesn't  seem possible.  It seems this negates one of the primary benefits of Apple Pay, which is to make purchases without turning over your credit card information to the merchant, in this case Apple.  I know you can pay with Touch ID, but that is only authoring payment from your credit card information you have on file.

    Hello ToastyFlake,
    It sounds like you are wanting to use ApplePay to purchase content from either the iTunes or App Stores. According to the following article, you are correct. ApplePay is for in-app (if the app supports it) or purchasing from a retail store. 
    Set up and use Apple Pay
    Pay with Apple Pay in stores
    On iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, you can use Apple Pay in stores that accept contactless payments. Look for one of these symbols at checkout:
    Pay with Apple Pay in apps
    On iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPad Air 2, and iPad mini 3, you can use Apple Pay to pay within apps when you see the “Buy with Apple Pay” or “Apple Pay”  button as a payment method. Look for these buttons in apps:
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
