Another firefox problem...

[TechHead87]

Firefox will no longer save pictures. Jpegs, bitmaps, gif files....nothing. What gives?

What version are you running?

 

[TechHead87]

1.0.6

 

[TechHead87]

It only saves images if I click and drag it to the folder I want the file in.

Also, why can't it remember the last folder I saved an item in? IE did this, but if I want to save more than 7 or 8 different items to one folder, I have to re-select that folder each time I attempt to save the file (this goes for ALL files).

 

[TechHead87]

anybody?

Uninstall + reinstall?

(Make sure you delete the hidden folder in Documents & Settings too.)

What hidden folder? I dont see one in D&S's...

*edit*....Ok, now I REALLY feel like the village idiot.

I uninstalled it, then re-installed it. Same problem.

I dont wanna have to go back to IE. I'd freak out without Adblock!

[MainFramed]

[hans030390]

Hidden folder is here:

C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\somerandomletters.default

 

[whoiswes]

yup, never had a problem with firefox that creating a new profile did not fix....

 

[rh71]

an alternate solution... grab the DOWNLOADTHEMALL extension and see if that will let you save images.

That directory isn't hidden for me.

How exactly do I do this? I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling, and nothing seems to work. I can't find anything related to this in the about:config settings either...

Please help me someone...

*edit*

I can't download the DOWNLOADTHEMALL ext. It told me I had to have 0.9 version and below...I've got 1.0.5.

Shutdown Firefox.
Delete your profile.
Start firefox.

Dude, that happens to me too (FF 1.06). (Drag and drop does work though.)

 

[w00t]

dude that isnt even bad firefox has pop-ups now!

Why can't I disable this smooth-scrolling crap?? I uncheck it in the options, but it never will take.
