Firefox Gets A 'Reset' Button – How To Use It

firefox

Firefox is a great browser and there is no doubt about that. The availability of thousands of Add-Ons is the biggest plus point of Firefox and sometimes it can even work against it. If you are an average computer user and using the same Firefox profile for a long period of time them you must have have noticed that the performance of your Firefox decreases with the passing time. Now with the introduction of Reset button, even a basic computer user will be able to solve some of their Firefox’s problems by reverting back their Profile to the default state, without loosing their personal data.

Using the "Reset" function is very simple. To find the reset button, just Go to the Firefox menu button, choose Help, then select Troubleshooting Information. Or alternatively you can enter about:support into the address bar to access the Reset button. On the "Troubleshooting Information" page, you will notice the "Reset Firefox’ button in the upper right corner of the screen. Just click on the “Reset Firefox” button and your Firefox Profile will revert back to it’s default state.

Currently the "Reset" option is not available in the stable version of Firefox ( Version 12 ) and it only works with the default profile. This means that if you opened Firefox with a secondary profile, or with a command line shortcut, the Reset Firefox button won't be visible. But still the "Reset" functionality is a very good feature to have in any browser.

Atomic Floyd headphones


Atomic-Floyd-Bheadphones

The Atomic Floyd SuperDarts offer powerful, punchy bass with clear high frequencies that are sure to appeal to fans of electronic and dance music. And if you're into electronic music, the skull-shaking bass offered by the Atomic Floyd SuperDarts will give you endless hours of pleasure with their bright red cable and shiny metal bits stuck on the end, bullet-like tips are back, complete with aggressive grooves.

They're machined from stainless steel, so should be sturdy enough to withstand an accidental attack from an errant foot. That metal does make them pretty heavy, so you'll have to make sure you use the correct size of tips to ensure they don't fall out of your ears. Settled in the top half of the left-hand cable you'll find an in-line remote made from more of that tough metal.

The remote is placed so it dangles just below your chin, which makes it better for picking up your voice than some headsets we've used, and makes it easy to find when you have to quickly skip the songs. The SuperDarts use dual drivers, meaning you have two speakers pumping out music in each ear. The dual drivers handle low and high frequencies separately, with the purpose of providing a more defined sound than headphones that rely on one driver for everything.

The silicon tips provide an excellent level of passive sound isolation, which allows you to listen at lower volumes, providing a clearer song and happier eardrums. The attention to detail has been so great that even the cable has been designed so that it doesn’t get tangled in knots when tucked away in your pocket. But, although these headphones are good, ultimately it all comes back to the price as it costs around £199.

Sonos SUB wireless subwoofer

sonos-wireless-subwoofer

Between a silent movie with drop dead gorgeous visuals, or a sweeping, majestic soundtrack, which would you choose? It would definitely be a hard choice for some, as some of us are more inclined towards music, while others are more visual folks. The thing is this – the best would be an amalgamation of both, but sometimes, you can only choose one. This time around is slightly different – let us say that you have a high end gaming rig or one of the largest flat screen displays in the living room around your neighborhood. How about attending to the audio aspect?

This is where the Sonos SUB wireless subwoofer comes in handy. Do discount the fact that the company known as Sonos is still relatively young compared to the other more established players in the market such as Bang & Olufsen as well as Bowers & Wilkins, as Sonos was just founded in 2002 – a relatively young decade old. Since then, however, they have not short changed consumers at all, where Sonos has proven themselves to be consistent in rolling out quality wireless Hi-Fi systems. Let us take a closer look at how the Sonos SUB wireless subwoofer works right after the jump.

Basically, the Sonos SUB wireless subwoofer has every intention of filling up your home with bass, and it will do so far more compared to any current Sonos setup. Specially designed to complement the already impressive sonic capabilities of Sonos amplified products including the CONNECT:AMP, the PLAY:3 and the PLAY:5, this particular device will throw in a generous amount of throbbing bass into the mix. Sonos claims that the system settings will be automatically adjusted to balance the SUB with the output from any paired Sonos device in order to deliver nothing but the very best mix.

Apart from that, there is also a simple, one-button setup procedure, allowing the unit to be controlled over the dedicated Sonos Controller or dedicated free Android/iOS apps on mobile devices. Features of the Sonos SUB wireless subwoofer include a couple of state-of-the-art Class-D digital amplifiers within an acoustically dead proprietary resin outer shell with maximum internal air volume, and built-in digital signal processing circuitry. It will come in just one shade – Gloss Black, when it arrives this June 19th for $699 a pop.
