There are a couple of different ways you can install extensions in Firefox, depending on the route you want to go.

Let’s take a look at how to easily install extensions in Firefox.

Install Extensions in Firefox

The main reason you can install Firefox extensions in different ways is because sometimes certain extensions are not available via the in-browser interface. If that is the case, you can still install Firefox extensions manually via the XPI file, which I will go over.

Automatic Extension Installation Using Firefox

Launch the Firefox web browser. Click or double-click the Firefox app icon, which resembles an orange fox around a blue globe. You can find it in your Applications folder on a Mac, or in the Start menu in Windows.

Once the browser has launched, you will see a hamburger-style, three-line icon menu on the top right of the Firefox browser. Click on that and a drop down menu will appear.

From this drop down, select “Add-Ons.”

Note: You can also reach the Firefox add-ons page by typing “about:addons” into the Firefox address bar.

Select the “Get Add-ons” tab located on the top left of the browser add-ons page.

On the “Get Add-ons” tab you will see a blue button titled “Find more add-ons.” You will click on this to get to the Firefox add-on page to select any extension you want to install.

Note: On a PC, there will simply be a search bar already on the page for you to search for the extension that you want.

Once you click on the blue button, you will be on the main Firefox extension page. Search for any Firefox extension that you want to install.

When you find the Firefox extension that you want, simply click on the blue “Add to Firefox” button to automatically install extensions in Firefox.

Note: On a PC, just click on the “Install” button located to the right of the extension you choose.

Drag and Drop Firefox Extension Installation Using XPI Files

This is a more manual process used to install extensions in Firefox. From the add-on that you want to install via the XPI file, right click on the blue “Add to Firefox” button on a Mac, or the “Install” button on a PC.

In the drop down menu that appears after the right click, select “Save Link As.”

When you do this, a popup box will appear asking you to name the file and save it where you want. Choose your save destination and click on “Save” to save the XPI file.

Now locate that file and drag and drop it into a Firefox window that you have running. When you do this, you will see a Firefox notification box popup underneath the address bar.

This is letting you know Firefox wants to install the extension and wants you to give final permission. Click on the “Add” button, or the “Install” button on a PC to complete the operation.

Now just verify the installation and restart your Firefox browser if necessary.

That’s it! You now have two easy ways you can install extensions in Firefox. Tailor your browsing experience to your liking.

The process to change Firefox tab settings is not difficult. It will only take you a couple of minutes, and after that you will have changed the tab settings to the way you prefer.

Let’s take a quick look at how to change tab settings in Firefox.

Change Firefox Tab Settings

Launch the Firefox web browser. Click or double-click the Firefox app icon, which resembles an orange fox around a blue globe. You can find it in your Applications folder on a Mac, or in the Start menu in Windows.

Once the browser has launched, you will see a hamburger-style, three-line icon menu on the top right of the Firefox browser. Click on that and a drop down menu will appear.

From this drop down, select “Preferences.” On a PC you will select “Options.”

Note: You should always keep your browser up-to-date. However if you are running an old version of Firefox, then you will select “Tools” in the menu bar. Download the newest version of Firefox now.

Once you have landed on the main Firefox settings page, click on the “General” tab that is located on the left of the browser window.

At the very top of the “General” section you will see a option for “Tabs.” There will be some selections under the Tabs setting. Let’s take a look at these and what they mean.

Note: You will also see a Firefox “Startup” option. You can select your startup option from there as well. The choice is yours.

The options for tabs may vary slightly whether you are using a Mac or a PC, as in the wording may be different, but the task is the same.

You will see the following three options as shown above in the screenshot:

• Ctrl+Tab cycles through tabs in recently used order
• Open links in tabs instead of new windows
• When you open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately

If you are using a PC, then you may see one extra option that says “Show tab previews in the Windows taskbar.”

Simply check the ones you want to activate and this will change tab settings in Firefox. Close the window and you will be all set.

That’s it. You have successfully changed Firefox tab settings and you are ready to roll with your new setup.

Enjoy!

As you might be aware, all of the major browsers come with a default font of Times New Roman. But what if you want to change or mix it up a bit? You can easily change Firefox font right from your options/settings page within the browser.

Follow these quick steps to customize the default font in Firefox.

Customize the Default Font in Firefox

Launch the Firefox web browser. Click or double-click the Firefox app icon, which resembles an orange fox around a blue globe. You can find it in your Applications folder on a Mac, or on your Start menu in Windows.

Once the browser has launched, you will see a hamburger style three-line icon menu on the top right of the Firefox browser. Click on that and a drop down menu will appear.

From this drop down, select “Preferences.” On a PC you will select “Options.”

Note: You should always keep your browser up-to-date. However if you are running an old version of Firefox, then you will select “Tools” in the menu bar. Download the newest version of Firefox now.

This will take you to the main setting’s page in Firefox where you can control just about anything.

Make sure the blue “General” tab has been selected on the setting’s page and scroll down a little until you see “Fonts and Colors.” This will be a sub-heading under “Language and Appearance.”

On a PC there will be a popup box where you will select the “Content” option. This also depends on the version of Firefox you’re running.

Under “Fonts and Colors,” you can click on the font box and a drop down will appear where you can select and customize the default font in Firefox. Simply click on the font you want from the drop down to select and change the default font.

That’s it! You have successfully changed Firefox font. You can also customize Firefox font on all web pages.

Customize Fonts For All Web Pages

From where you are, you will see an “Advanced” button. Click on the Advanced button to open the settings popup box for Firefox fonts.

Inside this popup box you will see a checkbox selection that is checked by default called “Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of your selections above.”

Uncheck this box so the font you have selected in Firefox will also display on all web pages you visit in the future.

Now, after you have unchecked that box and saved your settings, you can visit other web pages and you will see that the customized font you selected shows on every web page.

That’s it! You have now customized the default font in Firefox. You’ve  also made the correct advanced selection to force your customized Firefox font to show across all web pages.

Enjoy!

The Firefox browser allows you to manage and file all sorts of things. It shouldn’t be a surprise that you can have saved passwords in Firefox.

Firefox saved passwords can be viewed using the Firefox Password Manager. Here is how you can view saved passwords in Firefox.

View Saved Passwords in Firefox

Launch the Firefox web browser. Click or double-click the Firefox app icon, which resembles an orange fox around a blue globe. You can find it in your Applications folder on a Mac, or on your Start menu on Windows.

When Firefox has launched click on “Tools” in your menu at the top of the screen and then click on “Options.” On a Mac, you will click “Firefox” then click on “Preferences.”

Once you get to the Preferences page click on the “Privacy & Security” tab located on the left side of the window.

Scroll down until you see the “Logins & Passwords” section and click on the “Saved Logins” button on the right. Your button may say “Saved Passwords,” depending on the version of Firefox you are running.

When you click on the “Saved Logins” button a popup box will appear. You will see a list of any websites that you have saved passwords for in the past. Click on the “Show Passwords” button to see all of your saved passwords.

You will have to confirm you want to view saved passwords in Firefox. When you do, you will see all your saved passwords in Firefox displayed.

Note: You can highlight a single website and display the password for that site only as well.

That’s it! Find the password you need and fill it in to log in wherever you need to.

Firefox allows you to save your downloaded files in any folder you want. This will come in handy next time you are exporting your bookmarks from Firefox.

Here is how you select a new Firefox file download destination.

Change Downloaded File Destinations in Firefox

Launch the Firefox web browser. Click or double-click the Firefox app icon, which resembles an orange fox around a blue globe. You can find it in your Applications folder on a Mac, or on your Start menu on Windows.

Once you have Firefox open click on the top right corner of the browser window to open the dropdown menu. From that menu highlight and click on “Options” or “Preferences” if you are on a Mac.

From this setting’s page scroll down to the Files and Applications section. Click on “Browse” or “Choose” if you are on a Mac.

A popup box will appear. Navigate to the folder you want to use for your Firefox file downloads. Click on “Select” or “Choose” if you are on a Mac.

The folder that you selected is now the default Firefox download file destination.

Things to Remember

A few things you may want to consider when you go to change your download file destination in Firefox.

• If you change the radio button in the Files and Applications section to “Always ask where to save files”, then Firefox will open a dialog box every time you download something to select where you want to save it.
• The “Downloads” folder might work the best for the purpose of easy locating.
• You can choose a “Desktop” folder as well. However, there is a drawback of this option: storing the downloaded files in the “Desktop” folder is going to “clutter” your desktop and eventually slow down your computer.
• It’s a good idea to choose the same folder for downloading files for the easy locating them later, especially if you refrained from using a computer for some time.

You can change the Firefox download destination folder at any time.

Experimenting with settings always helps, and the most common culprit of slow page speed in Firefox is usually a buggy add-on. You can always double-check cookies and cache as well. Let’s take a look at a few ways to load pages faster in Firefox.

Make Firefox Pages Load Faster

There are many reasons why the browser is running slow, and I have assembled a comprehensive guide to make Firefox faster. Let’s take a look at different operations you can try to increase Firefox page loading speed.

Change Config Settings

In many instances, changing the settings of your browser can do wonders for performance. Just keep in mind that changing some of these can result in poor performance if you’re not sure of what you’re doing.

In any case, it may be worth the effort if it improves how well you browse the Internet.

Update Firefox

This is obviously the first thing you want to do. If you are not running an up-to-date version of Firefox, chances are this could affect page load speed. It also makes your browser more secure.

Back-Up Your Preferences File

Preference file settings can cause bugs and slowdowns for some users. You can usually revert them without a problem, but back up the file just in case so you can restore your old preferences if something goes wrong.

To back up your preferences, do the following:

• Open a new tab and enter “about:support” in the address bar.
• Look for “Profile Folder” and click Show Folder next to it (Show in Finder on a Mac).
  
• Go one level up from the folder that opens. You should see a folder with a string of letters and numbers, ending in “.default.”
• Right-click this folder and choose “Copy,” then right-click in a backup location and select “Paste.”
  

Try One Setting at a Time

These settings are intended for advanced users so be careful. You could cause problems with your add-ons if you aren’t. This is the best way to change one setting at a time so you can test the effect.

You can find tools online to test the speed of your browser precisely.

Adjust Connections Per Server

Since your Firefox browser limits the number of simultaneous connections to a single server, upping this limit will make a noticeable speed change to pages with many images or videos. This is given your bandwidth can handle it.

However, remember that increasing this too much is considered bad etiquette, and may get you banned from a server. That being said, you have a little wiggle room.

To adjust these connections:

• Open a new tab and enter “about:config” in the address bar.
• Search for network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server and double-click the Value. Increase this to a maximum of 10. Some users prefer 8 to be on the safe side.
• Search for network.http.max-connections. Set this value to 256, if it isn’t already.

Note: You may run into the page below, which is merely a warning that you’re changing settings that could cause stability issues. The choice to make these adjustments is yours.

Again, these are advanced settings and you will get warnings. Move forward at your own risk. You will get this display while trying to adjust anything in the “about:config.”

Disable Animations

Firefox displays small animations when opening or closing tabs. This is usually not an issue, but you can avoid some hang-ups if you tend to open or close many tabs at once.

To disable animations:

• Open a new tab and enter “about:config” in the address bar.
• Set browser.tab.animate to False.
• Set browser.panorama.animate_zoom to False.

Consider Disabling Prefetching

Prefetching loads pages before you visit them, guessing which links you’ll click on. When working correctly, this should only use idle browser time, and will actually increase load speed. If you have unusually slow load speeds, a buggy prefetch could be the issue.

You can make the following changes to disable both forms of prefetch, then reverse them if there’s no speed up:

• Open a new tab and enter “about:config” in the address bar.
• Change network.dns.disablePrefetch to True.
• Next, change network.prefetch-next to False.
• Finally, change the value of network.http.speculative-parallel-limit to 0.

Toggle Hardware Acceleration and WebGL

These functions use your graphics card to speed up certain functions, especially loading videos. However, this can cause slow load times or blurry text, especially with older operating systems or graphics cards.

Try watching videos with these settings on and off to see which works best for you:

• Open a new tab and enter “about:config” in the address bar.
• Change webgl.disabled to True or False.
• Visit “about:preferences#advanced” in a new tab. Check or uncheck “Use hardware acceleration.”
• Unlike most setting changes, you may need to restart Firefox for these to take effect.

Troubleshooting Slowdowns

Although we love the idea of things working right out of the box, life doesn’t work out that way. Sometimes, it takes a bit of troubleshooting to figure out specific problems.

And because all systems are unique, it’s a bit difficult sometimes to narrow down a fault. However, I’ve put together a few of the most common things you can check to improve speed performance.

Install An Ad Blocker in Firefox

On many websites and web pages, ads take up a large fraction of the Firefox page loading speed. You can install AdBlock Plus or another ad blocker to prevent these ads from loading.

Note: If you want to support a certain creator or brand, consider disabling ad-block on those sites.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode

Click the menu icon (three horizontal bars), then the help icon (?), then Restart with add-ons disabled.

If Firefox runs much faster in Safe Mode, a faulty add-on is slowing you down.

Disable Add-Ons

Enter “about:addons” in the address bar, or click the menu icon (three horizontal bars) and select Add-ons. Disable one add-on at a time, and browse for a while to see if it speeds you up. Visit the same page to remove the add-on permanently or re-enable it, depending on your test.

Switch to Default Theme

If you have a custom theme running, this could be slowing your page load speed. Visit the Appearance tab on the add-ons page, and switch to the default theme.

Minimize Memory Usage

If you’ve just closed a bunch of tabs, Firefox might lag for a while until it deletes the contents of those tabs from its memory. Get rid of them right away by visiting “about:memory” and clicking Minimize memory usage.

Adjust the Cache

Don’t confuse this with clearing the cache. The cache is another feature that speeds up browsing in general but can slow you down if it gets too full for your hard drive. To adjust the cache size, visit “about:preferences#advanced,” click the Network tab, and check “Override cache management.”

Note: It is a good idea to clear your Firefox cache periodically, especially when the page load speed gets slow. You can clear the cache on a PC, or clear cache on a Mac as well.

Reset Firefox

If you are experiencing very slow page load speeds on a broadband connection, consider resetting Firefox to remove a buggy add-on or setting change. This will delete all your add-ons, themes, and download history, and return your settings to default.

To do this visit “about:support” and click Refresh Firefox.

There you go. If none of the above work or help then you have something else going on. These techniques will help increase Firefox page loading speed.

This is just one of the many things you can do using the Firefox browser.

What is a Proxy?

Simply put, a proxy is a computer system or program that acts as a kind of middle-man. Proxy settings allow an intermediary to come between your web browser and another computer, called a server.

You can set up Firefox proxy settings by performing the steps below.

Enter Proxy Settings in Firefox

Launch the Firefox web browser. Click or double-click the Firefox app icon, which resembles an orange fox around a blue globe. You can find it in your Applications folder on a Mac, or on your Start menu on Windows.

Once the Firefox browser is launched you want to access the correct area so that you can enter Firefox proxy server settings.

Click on the hamburger style menu on the top right of your Firefox browser and in the dropdown menu select “Preferences.”

Note: Instead of the word “Preferences,” look for “Options” in the same menu if you are on a PC (Windows).

From the setting’s page click the “General” tab located on the left side of the window.

Note: If the “General” tab is already blue, then you are already there.

From the General tab scroll all the way down to “Network Settings” or “Network Proxy” and click on the “Settings” button located to the right. Doing this will open the Proxy Settings window.

Now from here, you want to check the “Manually proxy configuration box.” You will find this option near the top of the popup window.

Once the box is checked, go ahead and enter your proxy information. You will need to fill out the following fields:

• HTTP Proxy: Your proxy server’s IP address goes here.
• Port: The server’s port number goes here.

You also want to check the “Use this proxy server for all server protocols” box. It’s directly below the “HTTP Proxy” field.

Once you have finished filling out the info click on the “OK” button located on the bottom right of the box to save all your proxy settings.

That’s it! You have successfully entered proxy settings and set up a proxy server connection in Firefox.

In this tutoria, I will show you how to export Firefox bookmarks onto your Windows or Mac computer. This will give you a saved copy of bookmarks on your machine.

Export Your Bookmarks in Firefox

First you want to launch the Firefox web browser. Click or double-click the Firefox app icon, which resembles an orange fox around a blue globe. You can find it in your Applications folder on a Mac, or on your Start menu on Windows.

Once you have Firefox open click on the top right corner of the browser window to open the dropdown menu. From that menu highlight and click on “Library.” A pop out menu will show and you click on “Bookmarks.”

Note: The newer versions of Firefox also give you the option to click on the “Library” icon on the top right and go straight to your bookmark library. Just click it and a dropdown will appear and go to bookmarks that way.

When you click “Bookmarks” a new menu with all of your Firefox bookmarks will open. Click “Show All Bookmarks.” You will this link in the bottom-left corner of the drop-down menu. Doing so opens a new window.

In the new open window there is an option to export your Firefox bookmarks. It is the star-and-arrows icon at the top of the bookmarks library window. Clicking it prompts a drop-down menu.

Note: On Mac, click the Star icon at the top of the window.

Click on the star option and in the dropdown menu click on “Export Bookmarks to HTML.”

A File Explorer (Windows) or Finder (Mac) window will open. Inside that window you can give your bookmark’s file a name, and select where you want to save it to on your computer.

Click “Save” on the bottom right of the box and the bookmark’s file will be saved into the location on your computer that you have chosen.

That’s it. Firefox is a great browser that allows for all kinds of functionality. You now know how to easily export bookmarks in Firefox and save a file on your computer.

There are a couple more things you want to remember about Java as well. First off, it is free to download, so there will be no associated costs there. Secondly, it isn’t just used on websites. For example, this important programming language is also used in all of the following:

• Laptops
• Data Centers
• Game Consoles
• Scientific Supercomputers
• Cell Phones
• Internet

So as you can see, making sure that Java is running and updated properly on your Firefox browser is very important. Therefore, it’s common for users to make sure it’s running properly.

Let’s take a look at three ways to easily enable Java in Firefox.

Enable Java in Firefox

You can enable both Java and JavaScript in the desktop version of Firefox.

Method 1: Allowing Java Content on a Website

1. Launch the Firefox web browser. Click or double-click the Firefox app icon, which resembles an orange fox around a blue globe. You can find it in your Applications folder on a Mac, or on your Start menu on Windows.

2. Go to a site that uses Java. If there’s a particular site that you want to access using Java, you need to go there first to get the rest of the prompts.

3. Now wait for the Java prompt to appear. You will see a link in the middle of the page (or the Java content area) that says “Activate Java” or something very similar to that.

4. Click the “Activate Java” link. It should be on or near the Java content that you want to load.

5. Click “Allow Now” when prompted. It should appear on the upper-left side of the Firefox window. This will reload the website with the Java content enabled.

Notes: If you see a message that says Java is “unsupported”, “disabled”, “not installed”, or something similar instead of the “Activate Java” link, you cannot run the site in question on Firefox. Also, if you are able to run Java, you can also click Allow and Remember to place the site on Firefox’s “Allowed” list.

Method 2: Enabling All Java Content

Note: Before we get started on this method, you need to understand the limitations of it. Due to security issues, current versions of Firefox do NOT support Java, nor will future versions.

To enable Java content, you will have to install an old, 32-bit version of Firefox and then manually add the Java plugin. This is possible on Windows computers, but Firefox for Mac defaults to 64-bit, making it impossible to install Java for Firefox on a Mac.

Other Warnings

• Closing and re-opening Firefox may result in Firefox updating, which will render Java unusable.
• Using an old version of Firefox increases the risk of contracting a computer virus or running into malware.
• And certainly, you can never update your old version of Firefox, as doing so will remove your Java support.

However, if you still want to proceed, use the following steps.

Start With Steps 1-5

1. Open the Java website. Go to https://java.com/en/download/ in a browser. You will need to download and install Java before you can install it as a plugin in Firefox.

2. Download and install Java. To do this:

• Click Free Java Download
• Click Agree and Start Free Download
• Double-click the downloaded Java setup file.
• Click Yes when prompted.
• Click Install at the bottom of the Java window.

3. Open the Firefox 51 download page. Go to https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/51.0b9/in a browser. This is where you can download the last version of Firefox that supported Java.

4. Select a 32-bit link. Click the firefox-51.0b9.win32.sdk.zip link near the bottom of the list of links on this page.

5. Open the downloaded ZIP folder. Double-click the ZIP folder to do so.

6. Extract the ZIP folder’s contents. To do this:

• Click the Extract tab at the top of the window.
• Or, click extract all in the resulting toolbar.
• Click Extract at the bottom of the pop-up window.

7. Open the extracted folder. Double-click the firefox-51.0b9.win32.sdk folder (not the ZIP one) to open it.

8. Open the firefox-sdk folder. It’s the only folder in the window.

9. Open the bin folder. Double-click this folder, which is near the top of the window, to do so.

10. Scroll down and double-click the Firefox app icon. It’s near the middle of the page. This will prompt the Firefox 51 app to open.

11. Disable automatic updates. Type about:config into the Firefox address bar and press Enter, then do the following:

• Click I accept the risk! when prompted.
• Click the search bar at the top of the page.
• Type in app.update.auto
• Double-click the app.update.auto result to change its value from “true” to “false”.
• Be sure to click Not now or Ask later if ever prompted to update.
• Click the hamburger menu. It’s in the upper-right side of the window. A menu will appear.

Customize the Add-ons

12. Click Add-ons. This puzzle piece-shaped icon is on the menu. Doing so will open the Add-Ons page.

13. Click the Plugins tab. It’s on the left side of the page.

14. Find the “Java(TM) Platform” option. You’ll usually find this option near the bottom of the page.

15. Click the “Ask to Activate” dropdown box. It’s to the right of the “Java(TM) Platform” heading. A dropdown menu will appear.

16. Click Always Activate. This option is in the dropdown menu. Doing this activates Java for any website that you visit in this version of Firefox. However, be careful not to update Firefox at all.

Note: If you accidentally update Firefox or an update gets pushed through, you can reinstall Firefox 51 by deleting the firefox-51.0b9.win32.sdk folder (not the ZIP version), opening the ZIP folder of the same name and re-extracting it, and then re-opening the Firefox 51 app from within the bin folder.

Method 3: Enabling JavaScript

1. Launch the Firefox web browser. Click or double-click the Firefox app icon, which resembles an orange fox around a blue globe. You can find it in your Applications folder on a Mac, or on your Start menu on Windows.

2. Go to the configuration page. Type in about:config and press Enter to do so.

3. Click I accept the risk! when prompted. It’s a blue button in the middle of the page.

4. Search for the JavaScript option. Click the search bar, then type in javascript.enabled to search for the matching result.

5. Review the JavaScript value. If you see “true” below the “value” heading that’s on the right side of the page, JavaScript is currently enabled; this is the default Firefox setting.

Note: If you see “false” below the “value” heading, proceed.

6. Change the JavaScript value to “true” if necessary. Double-click javascript.enabled near the top of the page. You should see the status below the “value” heading change to “true.”

There you go. Three methods of enabling Java in Firefox.

Final Thoughts

Java is slowly being phased out across many browsers. However, a lot of websites still rely on it to function properly. Until those sites catch up and implement newer technology, you’ll probably need to enable Java in Firefox manually.

Such as it is with technology…always moving forward and advancing to the next greatest thing.

Subsequently, please make sure that you always have the latest versions of your browsers running, no matter what type of browser you use. This ensures safety, security, and best performance.

A cookie can be used for things like authentication, storing site preferences, shopping cart contents, an identifier for a server-based session, or anything else that can be accomplished through storing text data.

Firefox makes it easy to accomplish certain tasks that may not be as easy to handle in other browsers. Things like blocking websites in Firefox, or using Firefox to add, edit, and modify bookmarks can easily be done with just a few clicks of your mouse.

However, let’s focus on how you can easily enable cookies in Firefox.

Enable Cookies in Firefox

First you want to launch the Firefox web browser. Click or double-click the Firefox app icon, which resembles an orange fox around a blue globe. You can find it in your Applications folder on a Mac, or on your Start menu on Windows.

Once you have Firefox open click on the top right corner of the browser window to open the dropdown menu.

When the dropdown window slides out select the “Options/Preferences” tab.

Note: The tab will be called “Options” on a PC and ”Preferences” on a Mac.

This will take you to the main setting’s page where you will then click on the “Privacy and Security” tab located on the left side of the browser window.

The “Browser Privacy” scrolling options will pop up. Set “Content Blocking” to Standard.

Note: If you have the “Custom” box selected make sure that the Cookies box is unchecked.

That’s it. You are all set to go. The Firefox browser makes it easy to enable cookies.
