Known Issues

This list covers some of the known problems with Firefox 3.5 which willbe fixed in future updates or releases:

All Systems

• After installing this version, users will not be able to return to a previousbeta version of Firefox 3.5 without creating a new profile (see bug 488966)
• Restoring your bookmarks from a backup can take some time, during which thebrowser may seem unresponsive (see bug 493731)
• After using Clear Recent History some SSL sites will not load all images andstyles without pressing reload (see bug 480619)
• Firefox 3.5 will only support color profiles as specified by ICC v2,later versions will add support for ICC v4 (see bug 463221)
• Websites using the new downloadable font support that wish to change the colorusing :hover will also need to addtext-rendering : optimizeLegibility for font sizes lessthan 20 pixels (see bug 495455)
• Some sites with Flash can cause problems with the Cookies dialog (see bug 495035)
• Web pages can no longer automatically install PKCS11 cryptographictokens. Users are now required to do this manually or install anAdd-on that installs them (see instructionsand documentation)

Microsoft Windows

• If you select Fax from the Print Dialog, the Windows Fax dialog will appearand then disappear. Faxing still works from other applications (see bug 440486)

Mac OS X

• If the user repeatedly changes the paper size and asks for a Print Preview,Firefox may crash (see bug 495567)

Linux and Unix

• Zooming out on some sites may result in grey or black lines appearing (seebug 477552)

Troubleshooting

• Poorly designed or incompatible extensions can cause problems with your browser,including make it crash, slow down page display, etc. If you encounter strangeproblems relating to parts of the browser no longer working, the browser notstarting, windows with strange or distorted appearance, degraded performance, etc,you may be suffering from Extension or Theme trouble.Restart the browser in Safe Mode. On Windows, start using the "Safe Mode" shortcut created in yourStart menu or by running firefox.exe -safe-mode. On Linux,start with ./firefox -safe-mode and on Mac OS X, run:

  cd /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/
  ./firefox-bin -safe-mode

  When started in Safe Mode all extensions are disabled and the Default theme isused. Disable the Extension/Theme that is causing trouble and then start normally.
• If you uninstall an extension that is installed with your user profile (i.e.you installed it from a Web page) and then wish to install it for all user profilesusing the -install-global-extension command line flag, you must restart thebrowser once to cleanse the profile extensions datasource of traces of thatextension before installing with the switch. If you do not do this you may endup with a jammed entry in the Extensions list and will be unable to installthe extension globally.
• If you encounter strange problems relating to bookmarks, downloads, windowplacement, toolbars, history, or other settings, it is recommended that you trycreating a new profile and attempting to reproduce the problem before filingbugs. Create a new profile by running Firefox with the -P command lineargument, choose the "Manage Profiles" button and then choose "CreateProfile...". Migrate your settings files (Bookmarks, Saved Passwords, etc) overone by one, checking each time to see if the problems resurface. If you dofind a particular profile data file is causing a problem, file a bug and attachthe file.
