Vista, FF 3.0.5 and FD 2.16

Anonymous (not verified) —Sun, 01/11/2009 - 02:26

I found FD a couple of weeks ago and it was great help to order important www addresses and make them
easy to call. Supper.
But 4 days ago I upgraded FD to 2.16 version and can't solve the following problems:
- FD 2.16 automatically load as a links lot of lately ww sites I opened;
- in the top-right thumbnail corner there are three icons, I can run only one "Properties"
the rest can't work;
- additionally I can't find option to empty thumbnail, jut delete www address, in properties of
single tumbnail there's no such a field;
- can't find on "Properties dialog" switch to set "thumbnail preview" on, thumbnail preview is still off;
- in addition my previous configuration of FD, with groups, special icons for them are in air!
Where is the problem?

It's me again.
I removed the FireFox history, deleted all user temporaries and FD thumbnails are empty now.
I can add templates and, what is more important, I can see "Properties" (I mean www address) - fine.
But the rest of above problems exists. Could anybody help me in this case?

FD version 2.14 used "Most Visited" bookmarks folder as FD home (root) folder. I suspect this to be the cause of a problem, but I'm not sure.

You can try to fix this by opening "about:config" page (enter this address in browser address bar), then click confirmation button that appears, and then you'll see a list of Firefox preferences. Find "extensions.fastdial.root", right-click it and choose "Reset". To make sure you can also remove "Fast Dial" (if it exists) folder using Firefox Bookmarks menu (right-click on a folder and choose "Remove"). Then restart browser, after this empty Fast Dial folder would be created, which should work fine. Please tell if this helps.

Thank you for the answer, but as I write above, after I deleted FF history I found FD empty and ready to work.
Specially now I can enter and reset www address in "Properties". Nice, but the rest of problems still
exists:
- I can't use thumbnails 2 from 3 icons (only REFRESH is working);
- I can't find switch to set "thumbnail preview" ON, in my installation thumbnail preview is still OFF;
- in old FD I had a possibility to right-click and choose "open on new tab", in this FD version I can't - why?

@anon

There are a lot of unknowns here.

First I would suggest that you download the latest Version at the moment which is 2.22b

To download go here

Once you have done that I would suggest we go through your problems one by one.

Many thanks

Hi ANON,

thank you for the answer. I use FF 3.0.5 (latest version) and when I asked FF for extensions upgrades - silence!
Fine, I installed 22.2b as you write and:
- icons in thumbnails are OK;
- there's still no "thumbnail preview" as well as I can't see the switch to set it ON;
- I can't open 5 new www without come back to main screen - there's no (previous version was good) possibility to click-right button and choose open on new tab function or I can't find how to solve this.

There's new problem. I use two group thumbnails and in both I have different numbert of "sub-thumbnails".
In previous version it was OK, but currently number of thumbnails is GLOBAL, for main screen and for all groups.

Thanks again.

A short warning.
When I'm talking above about "PREVIOUS VERSION" of FastDial, as I see, I'm talking about version 2.9!

Hi ANON,

Hi, I am not Anon, I am chiaroscuro
Anon is short for anonymous. that's you :-)
(Have you got another name, there are a lot of anons out there ? Thanks )

---

icons in thumbnails are OK;

Good news !

---

- there's still no "thumbnail preview" as well as I can't see the switch to set it ON;

Please go to cell where you want to have Preview
Right click Properties
Enable Preview

Should work just fine for that cell

---

There's new problem. I use two group thumbnails and in both I have different numbert of "sub-thumbnails".
In previous version it was OK, but currently number of thumbnails is GLOBAL, for main screen and for all groups

Yes a number of users are missing this option.
If it was reinstated I think it would make a number of users happy.

Many thanks

Less clear about this one.

Especially your

There are two Fast Dial New Tab settings on this page

Please advise

Many thanks

FIRST
HI chiaroscuro (sorry for ANON
This are only my suggestions so be so kind as to read "should" as "shouldn't" obviously :-)
And I'm late because your server was off.

SECOND
As I noted number of icons in different groups should be defined for each group separately.

THIRD
You are right I can open thumbnail on new tab after I click on this thumbnail.
Fine, but...
in old version (2.9) I had a possibility to choose: open on new tab [right click and choose open on
new tab] or on actual screen [just click thumbnail] exactly as in FF; it's useful because I want to open
on separate tabs sometimes when I search something in Google e.g. BUT when I need known site
I just want to replace current site by new; in FF I can do it, in old FD (2.9 version) too but in FD 2.22b no.

When I have FD on my screen I want to click on thumbnail (specially GROP)
and open it in place of actual screen BUT also I have a chance to open quickly
e.g. 5 different sites in separate tabs.

FORTH
Do the following:
- on FD main screen, choose global Preferences - you will see form in window;
- click on FF screen to cover this window;
- repeat fist point again
Preferences window will stay under browser screen.

FIFTH
When I import bookmarks from second computer I receive FD content, the
same number but the order isn't the same. Just when I make my own order of thumbnails on
source computer on destination I receive thumbnails one-by-one.
