With the old firefox it would remember my passwords and user-name. Now I have to log in to all these sites every time I go on line and reopen automatically

Why won't my firefox 4 automatically open to the sites I click on. With the new firefox 4 I have to reenter both username and password the first time I log on everyday.

If your Firefox is set up to clear cookies on exit it will forget your login information therefor you will have to login again. But if you make you privacy settings look like this in the picture it will work again.

  • I have OS X I think. In any case I installed an updated firefox and my OS itself isn't updated enought to run it. So can I either somehow downgrade to the old firefox or at least somehow access and export my bookmarks?

    Swarnava, the OP is using a Mac, not Windows.
    @Jubjub, based on your More system details... on right of your post you have a Intel Mac OS X 10.4.11
    The last version that will work on your OS version is Firefox 3.6.* as the current 3.6.24 can be found at http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

  • Suddenly I have to log in to my home page every time I start firefox.

    when I started firefox my facebook home page used to log in automaticaly, but now I have to log in to facebook. Why was it changed?

    It sounds as though Firefox is not successfully saving your Facebook cookie between sessions. It's also possible that some security software on your computer is zapping your cookie.
    For more information on how to adjust your cookie settings to allow sites to save cookies indefinitely, see this article: [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Enabling%20and%20disabling%20cookies Enabling and disabling cookies | How to | Firefox Help]

  • How do you name the icons at thr top of thre page as I could with the old firefox ,ie the reload arrow as its own icon with name title.

    with the previos version of firefox I could name the icons on the address bar line at the top of the page...it was easier to do this than find for examplr the arrow for reload...all I did was go to customise and add the titles to the icons in lower case letters.........this I cannot do with this new version of firefox [ 29.0.1 ]....I have checked the custoise section but cannot find an item to title up the icons ...this is proving very inconvenient .

    Move your mouse to the top of the Firefox window, then right click.
    You will see a menu of the available toolbars. Select '''''Customize'''''.
    In the new window, look for the icon. When you find if, hold down
    the left button on it, and move it to where you want it to be.
    You can move any of the icons you want from here, but some
    icons are locked in place.

  • Print and even print preview comes out unreadable. Do i need to change any internal print options. My printer works with the old firefox and windows internet explorer for the SAME document. I only have a problem printing while in firefox 4.0.

    My printouts from web pages using the previous firefox and internet explorer products work.

    There's a bug in 4.0b12, which is fixed in 4.0RC.
    Open '''Help > About Firefox''' and it should check for and install the update. If it doesn't, use the '''Check for Update''' button in that "About" dialog.

  • My firefox 7 frequently hangs when loading 4 tabs or more.This happens as with the old firefox 6. Trying google chrome brings me a flawless operation even for how many tabs and how much flash embedded videos it have.

    Frequently hangs

    I'm still looking for a more complete answer. "Upgrading to Firefox 8" doesn't tell me what the actual problem is, nor does it guarantee that the problem will be resolved (certainly not from what I've read online).
    But thanks for responding. I appreciate the time.

  • When I log off of Firefox, do something else, and then want to get back on Firefox it says that it is already running and have to close the old Firefox out. How do I do it? Now, I'm restarting the computer. Is there an easier way? Thanks Steve

    I x off Firefox and work on MS Pub or Word, perhaps my email. If, for some reason I want to go back on Firefox, a box comes up and says it's already running - to close it and restart Firefox. I can't find where to close it? If I could re-open it, that would be fine, but to close it - there are no tabs, icons etc. So, I simply restart the whole computer and begin again. That's a long way round the barn!
    Steve

    Check the task manager (ctrl + shift + esc) and look for firefox.exe in the processes tab. If it's running, close it.

  • If java6update29 is incompatable with the current firefox, which version do I need and how do I get it?

    I have the current version of firefox. When I checked my plug-ins on firefox it said Java was outdated. So I updated it and now firefox has disabled it because it is not compatible. So do I now have to take off this version Of java? which version do I need and where do I get it?

    Firefox automatically disables only Java Console; see info below on Java Console
    See the following article
    *https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Add-ons%20are%20disabled%20after%20updating%20Firefox
    '''<u>Java Console</u>'''<br />
    Unless you do Java programming/development or debug Java applets on web pages, you do not need Java Console. Java update will install a new Java Console with each update. Removing the Java Console extensions has no effect on the functioning of Java for web browsing. You can see, '''''but not remove''''', the Java Console extensions in Add-ons > Extensions. Java Console extensions can be safely removed '''''manually''''' by following the instructions in this article:

  • I need blacks law disctionary digital plug-in to work with my browser, because it doesn't work any other way with any other browser, the new firefox is incompatible, so can I go back to the old firefox?

    I really wish internet providers wouldn't change things so much that your current software can't keep up. Black's Law Dictionary is the only authoritative source for legal terms and it's not free or on a website. The digital version (the only way to keep from carrying around a 5 lb book) is an add-on feature that previously worked with Firefox. It's supposed to work with all browsers, but the browsers have all been changing so much. If I would have known that my blacks-law plug in would be disabled until Firefox becomes compatible again, I would have never upgraded. Tell me how to go back to my old version, so I can finish my research in peace, until you guys get serious about making products that work for people BEFORE you release them.

    Try using the Add-on Compatibility Reporter extension to "force" compatibility of that add-on.
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/
    You really need to contact the developer of that Burke's Law add-on and find out why they can't keep that add-on up-to-date with the new Firefox versions. IMO, if they are using a web browser as the interface for their product and are charging you for that service, they have an obligation to their customer's to keep their stuff fixed for the 2nd most used browser in the world.

  • I downloaded a new version of firefox. It said it had problems with my norton toolbar and now it doesn't feature it in the window. I'm not that comp savvy. How do I either get the Norton toolbar up or go back to the old firefox? Thank you.

  • Ipad continues to use my old Apple ID and password.  I can't remember the password. I have created a new Apple ID but icloud is still locked up with the old one. Help.

    Last week I changed my Apple ID.  I was having some problems with getting "incorrect ID or password" message.  sometimes it would accept my info and sometimes it wouldn't.  I got tired with messing with it and decided to just create a new Apple ID and password.  The new ID has worked ok, but my icloud account still comes up with my old ID. I tried to change that but couldn't without signing in with the old ID.  I did several times but I always get the message "incorrect Apple ID and password".  I tried using other password but nothing worked. Now I'm not sure what the password is. I have asked for a password reset to be sent to me but nothing comes ( using my regular email ). I have tried using the secret questions and I get them all correct except my birthday doesn't jive with what they say.  I really need some ideas. My icloud account is essentially locked to me and isn't backing up my stuff. that's about all I can think of to tell you.

    Hunter of Sock Monsters thanks...I did follow your advise.  I went to the iforgot site and tried answering the secret questions twice.  I got the "wrong answer", so the next time I asked for an email authentication.  I am still waiting. I don't know what the usual time for waiting normally is. I am still waiting for an email reply from three days ago.  I'm not going to hold my breath.  My ipad is out of warranty but I may have to beg for help from support? I'll wait awhile longer.  Maybe there is another thing someone could come up with.  I appreciate your fast reply Hunter.

  • We have mac os X 10.5.8 we tried to upgrade with the new firefox 4. it removed our old firefox and replaced it with firefox 4. Now we get a message that our system does not support the new firefox. All our bookmarks settings are gone. Please advise.

    When we tried to open firefox 4, all previous settings and bookmarks were gone. Firefox 4 gives message that it is not supported by our system. IMAC G5 power PC with 2 gigs of Ram. Is there any way to restore the old firefox?

    Hi everyone,
    Many of you have had problems with Spotify for Mac OS X 10.5. We no longer support Spotify on this operating system which we announced back in November here as a "heads up".
    However, we've noticed that many folks have been updating regardless which should not be the case. Our intention was to let anyone using Mac OS X10.5 continue using a "legacy" version of Spotify. In any case, the folks who were using 10.5 were updated, and in many cases these customers have experienced crashes with the newest version of the application (Spotify version 0.8.8. at the time of writing).
    To make a long story short, we messed up in updating folks who should not have been updated and we're sorry. We plan on fixing the problem of Spotify updating to the latest version for Mac OSX 10.5 users and we're working on it as I write this. If you're a person who has already upgraded and the application is crashing, we're looking into a solution and we hope to have an update shortly.
    Warm regards from your humble community manager,
    Rorey

    Are you referring to Australis? <br/>
    http://people.mozilla.org/~shorlander/files/australis-designSpecs/australis-designSpecs-windowsXP-lunaBlue-mainWindow.html
    Firefox Nightly 29.0a1 has that new User Interface. But Australis won't be in a release version until Firefox 30 or 31, well into 2014.
