Reports indicate that power users of internet and web, geeks, techie mostly prefer firefox over other browsers. Here on this page, we list some of the power user guides and firefox tips n tricks which would help you get easy, faster and more productive with your favorite web browser.

New Mozilla Firefox Tips :

Customise the toolbar and bookmarks bar : Firefox toolbar and bookmarks bar can be easily and quickly customized. To customize the toolbar or add/remove buttons from toolbar, just right-click anywhere on the top bar and chose customize option. Now you can drag and drop any of the available buttons on the toolbar. You may even remove buttons already present on your toolbar if you find them cluttered. Customizing bookmarks bar is easy. You can get any website on the bookmarks bar by just opening the website, then selecting its name in the address bar and dragging the selected address onto the bookmarks bar. Alternatively, when you bookmark any website(shortcut key is : ctrl+D OR you may just click on STAR icon present in the address bar to bookmark any website), just select bookmark toolbar from the location option which comes at such action.

Grouping Tabs : One of the new features introduced in latest version of firefox is grouping of tabs. If you’re among those users who open several websites simultaneously, as you open more websites, the tabs take up the tab bar and you need to scroll right and left to switch to a particular tab. To keep this uncluttered, you just need to group your tabs into categories which would help you navigate or switch to various tabs easily so that you can work in a more organised way. TO group tabs, just click on the tab group button located on the right side of the Add tab button (+ button), and now just drag and drop tabs together into groups and name the group.

Pin Tab as App Tab : Just right click on any tab and chose Pin as App Tab. This will cause the tab to move to the leftmost position and also the tab would collapse into a small square size button making more space for your other tabs. This option is particularly useful if you keep few websites continuously open like gmail, facebook, and others. So, to keep them open and undisturbed, just pin them as app tab and switch to them when needed.

Undo closed tabs : Sometimes, you accidentally close tabs, to reopen them, just right click on any opened tab and click on Undo Close Tab option. If you have closed multiple tabs and want all of them to reopen again, just keep on clicking Undo Close Tab button repeatedly until you get all your desired websites back.

Open a link in new tab : If you always want to make a link open in new tab, just hold ctrl button on your keyboard while click on any link. This will cause Firefox browser to open the link in new Tab.

Quick type URL : Your browser address bar is also your search bar for history, bookmarks and visited websites. When you want to open any long url, just type few words that you think might be the title of the webpage or type primary domain name and few words of the title of the concerned webpage and firefox would automatically suggest you the webpage. It is great, isn’t it ?

Further, you can also complete any name with .com by just writing the main word of the domain name and then press ctrl + enter. To write .net to a name, press shift + enter. To write .org to a name, press ctrl+shift+enter. This is quick way to complete any url or domain name.

Focus on address bar and search bar : To directly get to the address bar, just press Ctrl+L and then start typing website address. To directly get to the search box located beside the address bar, press ctrl+K and start searching.

Change your default firefox search engine : Sometimes, when you install addons or other softwares on your computer, your firefox search bar might be activated with another search engine. To switch to default or say google search engine. Just click on the little down arrow located beside the icon of the search engine in the search box and chose your desired search engine. You may even uninstall or remove few search engines by clicking on Manage Search Engines option.

Always Restore previous session when firefox starts : If you’re only user of your computer, you might like this option as when enabled, firefox would automatically open or say resume your last browsing session from where you left it. It will automatically open all tabs which were opened when you were last browsing the web. To do this, just go to firefox menu- options – general. Under the option titled : When Firefox starts : Chose “Show my windows and tabs from last time” from the dropdown menu. You may check “Don’t load tabs until I select them” option. Checking this option is helpful if your system has low resources or to prevent firefox from crashing on low resources system.

Mozilla Firefox is amazing browser with tons of features inbuilt and one such feature is the ability to work in offline mode. This offline mode is especially useful to open/view saved webpages because when you save any website/webpage on your computer, most of the elements and parts of webpage is download offline but certain elements require active internet connection. If you’re not connected to internet and try to open such saved webpages in firefox, it may not open because it would try to connect online to download the new content. In other case you may want to work offline even if you’re connected to internet for specific purpose or for development or testing purposes. With firefox, it is easy. You can easily make your firefox work in offline mode without using your internet connection. To switch to offline mode in mozilla firefox, here goes the simple and easy steps :

Go to firefox menu and then into web developer and chose work offline . Your firefox would switch to offline mode. When you’re done with your particular work, you can easily switch back to online mode by unticking “work offline” option.

This very option is particularly useful for web developers and programmers. Sometimes, with active internet connection, firefox doesn’t open the webpage. In such case, to troubleshoot the problem, you should check whether your firefox is working in offline mode and resolve the same to browse the web in online mode.

Some of the firefox users have reported that their firefox crashes often or stops responding or hangs.. Whatever be the type of problem, it is disturbing, frustrating and maybe critically annoying sometimes. Well, Mozilla Firefox is open source software and whose development is contributed by various smart developers from the world, yet sometimes, there might be a few bugs BUT not always. Actually, users face problem not due to firefox but due to some other reason that they are not probably aware of. Here in this post, I have tried to list all those possible reasons which might cause your firefox to stop responding or hang or crash sometimes and the solutions of those problems.

Reasons and Solutions for Mozilla Firefox Crashes, Hangs and Not responding problems :

1. Adobe Flash Player crashing – Sometimes, the adobe flash player crashes on few websites (Note: Adobe flash player is a plugin by Adobe not by Mozilla foundation.) like video websites or websites where intensive and heavy flash scripts are working. In such case, firefox might not respond for few minutes.

Solution : Keep your adobe flash player plugin for firefox up to date. Whenever an update to the flash player is available, just update it outright. When the flash plugin crashes or stops responding, it may pop a dialog box asking your permission to abort the running script, you may hit abort to restore responsiveness then.

2. Low memory but heavy usage – Sometimes, on low resources computers/netbooks/notebooks (which have low ram, low speed processor, etc), when you open many websites simultaneously, the total responsiveness might decrease to a significant degree.

Solution : Don’t open too many tabs at a time especially if you’re on low resources system. Firefox developers team have always been trying to make firefox swift on every kind of system and this has always been one of top concerns and as new versions are released, the same has improved a lot.

3. Faulty Plugins and Addons – Sometimes certain addons or plugins are responsible for firefox crashing. You could easily identify such situation.

Solution: If you installed a new addon and firefox has started crashing after that installation, it is better to remove that addon. Further, if the problem persists, you may want to start firefox safe mode by going to all programs – mozilla firefox – firefox safe mode. This mode loads the mozilla browser without loading any addons. This is particularly useful to diagnose the faulty addons. Further keep your plugins and addons update. To check whether your plugins are up to date or not, follow here . Note:This link only checks your installed plugins for latest version and not your addons.

4. Other Conflicting Programs and Softwares – Sometimes, some other programs which modify or interrupt the normal operation of mozilla firefox browser may result in crashes and hanging problems of firefox or even your whole system.

Solution : If you installed any program of late and firefox crashing problem started after that, then you should remove that software.

5. Antivirus, Internet Security Suite, Firewalls – Sometimes, antivirus softwares or your internet security software blocks firefox from operating as normal either restricting internet access or by changing its process and the environment it needs to run.

Solution: Install and configure antivirus, internet security software and firewall very well. Check their vaults list. Add firefox to the whitelist in these programs. Also, don’t forget to keep your antivirus, antimalware, antispyware, firewall and other internet security softwares updated to the latest definition.

6. Outdated Firefox – New Mozilla firefox versions are rapidly released with several improvements and bug fixes. You might not have the latest version installed.

Solution : Update firefox to latest version.

7. Outdated OS or drivers : Your os be it windows, linux or mac might be outdated or might not have the latest minor and major updates integrated. Even drivers especially graphics driver should be regularly updated to the latest available version. This might be one of the causes in your case for firefox crashing.

Solution : Keep your os up to date.

OTHER TIPS : Clear your downloads list. Restart Computer if firefox doesn’t start after closing it.

Further, you can improve firefox by allowing it to send report in case of firefox crashes.
