The menus in 2.0 feel...off. It's hard to explain but I notice it the most in the bookmarks menu. It's like the content menu in folders don't line up like they used to.
There's nowhere I can't reach. |
Tab Mix Plus fans should try the dev build until an updated version is available on the Mozilla page. As far as I can tell, it's stable and I cannot live without single window mode.
This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
I managed to fix my shaking problem, I just removed the bookmarks toolbar, and it stopped. So, if anyone else has this shaking problem just remove the bookmarks toolbar and you'll be fine.
Still getting used to the skin though, I liked my old one. I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
I'm not sure if this is a hoax or true, but I find it pretty damn funny.

I like the new Firefox 2.0. Or at least the automatic spell checker of my typing. Good shit. Looks a bit sleeker too. But that's just me.
What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
This is going to sound a little stupid, but how do I make use of the spellchecking fucntion that comes with this?
FELIPE NO |
What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
Thanks for that Cetra. That spell check function is going to come in handy.
How ya doing, buddy? |

They still haven't fixed the memory leak, have they?
I love everything about FF2.0 except the new look and the message that popups up asking to restore your tabs if FF crashes or gets closed on shut down. I liked the default look of 1.5 because it fit in with my desktop theme so well. The new look is trying to be shiny, but in a bad way and the buttons look terrible. I don't care about restoring my tabs if FF gets closed, and I wish I could turn that message off. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
It's funny that you should complain about those features, as a good number of people I know have complained that Firefox should have them (really, restoring the last session can come in handy), namely a new/better skin. I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
Does anyone here know how to help me with my file downloading problems?
Im trying to pick up a torrent from tokyo toshokan, and all firefox ever does is pop up a new tab/window, as if the torrent file were a webpage, although the sceen is blank. there is no download manager popup or anything, just a blank screen. thanks. I was speaking idiomatically. |
*** As for Firefox 2.0, I waited until it was officially relased (unlike most people who saw the "ZOMG IT BE OUTS NOWZ!@121!@" type "releases" at places like slashdot) before installing it. But before that, I had a backup made - just in case. And it paid off, because even though the majority of it was A-OK, key features bombed - such as: * firefusk. If you don't know what this is, then I won't tell you * super dragandgo. I use this waaaaaay too much to leave it behind, and even though it had an update for FF 2, it didn't work. * the "manditory-restore-on-reset" feature. Makes restarting a pain, mainly because I often have a few (dozen) tabs open when I have to restart to update extensions (and yes, I have an extension for restarting) There's an edit for the last one, but I shouldn't have to hack Firefox when there should be an option for it. All in all, I'm back on 1.5.0.7. Most amazing jew boots Currently Watching: D.Gray-man, Red Garden, DESU NOTO | Suggest something? Currently Playing: Disgaea 2 <3 Character of the Moment: Osaka! |
Update on the freezing problem: Today my browser stopped responding to URL changes again, with about a dozen tabs open, and nothing was downloading.
If this becomes a daily occurrence I have serious doubts about this version remaining on my system. FELIPE NO |
What I do for troubleshooting after major version jumps is backing up my config and then start from scratch (in this case the Mozilla folder somewhere in Documents & Settings, I think, it's ~/.mozilla in Linux). Just a thought for everyone running into issues.

Also, right-click>save as does not produce a desirable response. It always opens up the save dialogue, and the automatic name is "download," which then, if I click save, proceeds to not save shit. The worst part is that this is a completely fresh install, so it doesn't make sense that I somehow broke it. Again, if someone knows how to append the file types automation, this should solve my problem. Thanks. (also, "dialogue" was not part of FF's standard spell-check dictionary. ) Jam it back in, in the dark. |

I'm wanting to upgrade to 2.0 but I'm seeing a bunch of issues people are having... and the shaking thing was something I experienced by in 0.8... but I was also running WindowBlinds and once I killed it on my laptop the shaking stopped.
And on my desktop it didn't seem to be an issue (though it didn't get Firefox until 1.0 was released). And still not an issue on either of the two desktops that I have WindowBlinds installed on... So the question is this: is anyone running WindowBlinds and seeing issues with 2.0? Thanks. Most amazing jew boots |
I'm not someone that browse the internet with 50 tab open or something, so the x problem doesn't apply to me but I can see why it could be a problem...
but the things weird is almost all issues people have, I didn't get any ... no shaking or anything and I'm using windowblind >.> really the only problem I have and it's not really a problem for me, is some extension didn't work but all the one I was using regularly worked and now some a re-release to work with the 2.0 version... I guess I'm lucky >.> but like I said i'm not an intensive user... I was speaking idiomatically. |
Since I've done what I've described in this post, I haven't had a single shaking problem. In fact, I haven't had any problems with 2.0 since the ones I solved a few posts up.

Please don't tell me they removed the "Open As" option when downloading. Currently I only get a "Save As" and "Cancel" option. Is there a way to change this hidden away in the options somewhere? My searching through the options hasn't had any luck.
How ya doing, buddy? |
"Open As"? I'm still using 1.5 and I don't see that. Do you mean the "Open with" option? =o

Edit: This is making my head hurt....a lot. DO WHAT I SAY AND GIVE ME THE DOWNLOAD WINDOW I WANT STUPID FIRETRUCKFOX. Jam it back in, in the dark.

I think it's depend of the file you download, like I know that all .exe file you couldn't use the open with in previous version, so I guess that in this version the "open with" function just show when a file can be open with a program and is hidden when you can't use it...
