Windows 7 jumplist is missing from Firefox 15 beta

I'm on the beta update channel and I think I was recently updated to Firefox 15.0. After I start Firefox in Windows 7, I can't bring up a jumplist so I can't pin it to my taskbar.

Apparently this bug got pushed to the release channel now. After updating to 15.0.1, restarting Firefox used a new icon on the taskbar rather than the one that had been pinned before (as usual). But when I right click on the new icon to pin it, nothing happens. There's no jumplist at all, not even the minimal one that pops up for programs that don't make use of jumplist functionality. So I can't even pin the icon to my taskbar.

Save Image ..why is it missing from Firefox when IE has it ?

Such a fundamental thing to have as the ability to save an image is missing from Firefox and as I have gone over to Firefox from IE I am dumbfounded as to why Mozilla fails to feature this. Why is this ? I have the add on but you get 'save images from current tab', when right clicking on an image that has launched on screen after clicking on a thumbnail, and you end up with hundreds of images, every damn bit of the webpage, the big image is indistinguishable from its thumbnail and every image has to be looked at and discarded until one finds the bigger versions. Who in their right mind would want every little bit of a webpage ? The large images look the same as the thumbnails and each one has to be enlarged to see if its the big image or not.
A task that took seconds in IE takes half an hour.
Can we see Firefox catch up with IE6 for image saving ?

Having now tried another website, where images do not have thumbnails, I have 'save image as', though the dropdown window is empty, no options on file type, its those where clicking a thumbnail sees a new window appear, rotating dots then the image occurs. No save image as, only the save image plugin which proceeds to capture everything. Trying IE on this I see also no save image option, so I guess its the website not Firefox. I shall have to use printscreen button I guess.
I dont know why the dropdown combobox gives no options of file type, IE6 didnt have much but jpg or bmp was offered.

After automated update from Firefox 4 beta to RC I lost my profile

After this morning automated update from Firefox 4 beta to the RC the browser created a new profile without importing the existing one .
So, please help me to recover my data.

''it looks like the new version creates the default profile in C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ I've copied the files from the older location (C:\Users\My _user\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\) and the problem is solved.''
''if this is the intended behaviour, it sucks!''
This is not normal behavior. The default Firefox profile folder should still be located here, on Windows Vista: <br>
C:\Users\< user name>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile folder>.
<br>ref: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox#Windows
Restart the computer and make sure you are logged into Windows as the correct user, by entering '''%USERPROFILE%''' into the Windows Start Menu "Start Search" box. Once you are sure you are logged in as the correct user, try starting Firefox again and see if you are using the old Firefox profile folder (go to Firefox -> Help -> Troubleshooting Information -> Open Containing Folder")
You can also create a new Firefox profile with a unique name - see [[Managing profiles]] - then find the new profile folder and use the instructions here to copy over your data:
[[Recovering important data from an old profile]] (It's better to only copy selected data and reinstall your needed extensions).

Default Camera App Tile Missing and Won't Launch from c:\windows\camera. Also missing from Windows Store to reinstall.

Hi There,
I am deploying a custom windows 8.1 enterprise image via SCCM to Surface Tablets in our corporate environment. We currently are using windows 8 ONLY on surface hardware.
We only have 4 in the wild but all are having the same issue. The camera app tile/shortcut is missing from the all applications menu.
If I try to launch it from the c:\windows\camera folder i receive an error regarding Windows.UI.Xaml.dll as I believe it needs to be called via the modern environment (not desktop).
It dose not appear to be a hardware issue as third party camera apps seem to work.
Also, when i search for the app in windows store it cannot be found. I can find it when i search the store via IE but when I click on the link to open it in the windows store i am only presented with the stores front page.
Any advice would be appreciated as my users are keen to use the camera on their surface pro 3's.
Thanks

This sounds as though the Camera app has become corrupt in your image. I would attempt to reimage one of the devices with a vanilla environment to see if the issue appears, if not, I would
evaluate the difference between the Camera app in the vanilla environment and the production environment. Specifically, you may need to ensure that the correct version of Camera is provisioned in the base image.

Adobe reader plugin missing from firefox plugins list on redhat 6.1

Hello,
I'm having a problem with putting adobe reader 9 plugin installed on firefox 3.6.17 on redhat 6.1 (64bit)
(Not recreatable on redhat 5.4 with same versions of reader and firefox)
Even though nppdf.so appears in the directory /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins directory with 755 permissions,

How can I ensure it is properly installed or what steps can I take to debug the problem deeper?
Thanks!!

Print Preview is missing from Firefox 6 on Mac OSX Lion in both File Menu and Print Dialog Box

The question says it all really. Print Preview option is missing from both the File menu and from the Print dialog box when you select Print. I use Print Preview a lot to avoid wasting paper.
A relevant issue might be that the Mac OSX app Preview is currently having trouble with various printers including my Xerox and so, temporarily, the default application for all Preview items is now Adobe Reader until Apple get their act together. Perhaps this is affecting things?
Thanks for any help

It's moved to the PDF dropdown, "Open PDF in Preview"

Updating from firefox 29 beta to release version

I am currently on Firefox 29 Beta, with the browser updated to the latest RC version last week. But as of 29th April 2014, the release version of Firefox 29 has been introduced. I wanted to know if my browser will update to the release version using the automatic updater or if I need to update manually from beta version to release version.

hello joynul007, when you're on firefox 29 beta currently you will be updated to firefox 30 beta in a few days. in case you'd like to switch back to the regular release versions, just download firefox 29 for your system & language from https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all.html and install it on top of your current beta version (this will keep all your bookmarks, passwords and settings).

Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Application Support" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post. (If you've got XP, although the procedure is for Vista and 7, just read "Computer" as "My Computer", read "Uninstall a program control panel" as "Add or Remove programs control panel" and assume the system is 32-bit, and you'll be doing the right things.)

Why are key functions, such as the "back" button, missing from Firefox after involuntary update?

I noticed that there is a new version of Firefox on my computer, different from the last time I had my computer on. There are few issues that I have noticed thus far. 1) The back" and "forward" buttons are disabled. 2) Whenever I open a website the address bar is missing the URL. 3) Firefox doesn't save my tabs and I lost all of my tabs from the previous session.
Please help me. This makes browsing a frustrating task.

Problems with bookmarks and history not working properly can be caused by a corrupted places.sqlite database file.
You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox Profile Folder.

See also:

*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Corrupt_localstore.rdf
It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Multiple_profile_files_created
If you keep having problems with your current Firefox Profile Folder then try to create new profile or reset Firefox.
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Creating a profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If the 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.

Windows 8.1 Bluetooth missing from Device Manager

It appears after the latest round of windows automatic updates my native bluetooth device went missing. It is not visable in the device manager or the control panel settings. I have downloaded and reinstalled the latest wireless and bluetooth drivers, however I am still unable to view the device. This is a Yoga Pro 2 (64bit) running the most current Windows 8.1 updates. The latop has a native bluetooth adaptor which had been working with no issues. I have run services.msc and restarted the associated BT services and they are running. Would appreciate any help.

Why is the "Language Tools" link missing from Firefox's default Google homepage?

The <www.google.com> homepage includes a "Language Tools" link that is inexplicably missing on the official Firefox homepage.
I would greatly appreciate an answer. Thanks!

Not to take credit for the answer, here's a link to an original post regarding the missing "Language Tools" link. Apparently, it has something to do with iGoogle getting a new design:
http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Web+Search/thread?tid=5e4a5de89208c08f&hl=en
UPDATE: Still confused as "Language Tools" IS showing up in Internet Explorer along with "Advanced Search" right above it. So, this seems to be specific to Firefox, because both of those links no longer appear in my Firefox browser anymore.

Codec is missing from Firefox toolbar

When i try to enter a site that requires a password, i get a popup window that requires a password from firefox. I want to remove that!

When I go to a website that requires my password. I get a firefox popup that demands a password. But I dont know what it is expecting. I have uninstalled firefox and then reinstalled but the pest persists. How do I remove it?

The popup is caused by spyware or alien extensions on your browser. Here's a guide I found that helps remove the popup - [http://www.fixnowsupport.com/3/post/2013/06/how-to-fix-the-authentication-required-popup-message-in-firefox.html Remove Authentication Required Popup in Firefox]
The worst part is the popup appears continuously even after closing it several times.

My cursor display (arrow) on my Mac disappears from view on Firefox only. Safari and all other software reveals the arrow, it's just missing from Firefox. Help! This is my access of choice!

I had several things open on my laptop: Firefox, Safari (it opens automatically when I click a link in an e-mail), Mail. I was bouncing among all these places when I realized my cursor (arrow) wasn't showing up ... but only when I was in Firefox. I have set up all my usual accounts (facebook, Google+, Flickr, LinkedIn, etc.) using Pin Tabs, but I've had that for a few months.
I don't know if this is a Mac issue or a Firefox issue--I'm thinking the latter because the problem occurs only when I'm using Firefox.

I should note that while it is Ff 8.0.1 I use, I'm on OS X 10.7 / Lion, not 10.6 as noted above. More precisely, I use 10.7.2 but am not clear if the problem only appeared with the .2 update.

What is missing from Firefox to read websites with animation or ads.... ie; alc.ca? I cannot see winning # or see their ads in the space provided.

On my laptop/desk top computer I can see the ads and winning numbers on alc.ca but not on my tablet or smartphone. What add on or other program is needed to view these ads?
