This thread was archived.Please ask a new question if you need help.Firefox doesn't know how to open this address because the protocol (Bitcoin) isn't associated with any program.How do I fix this?I am on Linux 32 bit and I have a completely separate issue that I got a response about a week ago but just havent had time to tackle it or dive in, related to Looks like your using an older version of Firefox which is related to Adobe Flash plug in....so I'll get around to it and dont know if that's related at all.What is related is this error: Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (bitcoin) isn't associated with any program.So this is a Bitcoin question and I researched for over an hour on this Bitcoin protocol thing before but nothing worked.I just installed a payment box for Bitcoin on my site, and I thought it worked until I tried to copy the address and hit send (even tried with my MultiBit wallet open) and NOT THIS AGAIN!/2015/06/08/wildlife-photography-test-c/ (This was just a test) I saw this error (protocol) error for many things, not just Bitcoin, and though I tried several of the solutions, nothing worked.

I can't give up now!Is this more of a MultiBit issue than Firefox?What am not getting?Again, I tried with the MultiBit wallet open to no avail.Chosen solution I doubt I will use bitcoin, unless it becomes way more mainstream, but I would have thought the idea of using multibit is that it deals with everything for you.bitcoin mining rig kaufenI note besides github multibit mention using stackexchange /community.html / That site is probably more concerned with mining rather than transferring bitcoins, but it may be worth posting there.free bitcoin faucet appbtcmacroecon said OK I contacted MultiBit and got a thread up on GitHub and they closed the thread and said it was a Firefox Configuration.bitcoin juni 2011

I believe that puts it in the court of Firefox, if I could get some support on this?Have you got a link to the closed thread ?Read this answer in context 0 Additional System Details Installed Plug-ins Shockwave Flash 11.2 r202 The IcedTea-Web Plugin executes Java applets.This plugin provides integration with Cinnamon for live extension enabling and disabling.ethereum news calendar DivX Web Player version 1.4.0.233 The Totem 3.4.3 plugin handles video and audio streams.bitcoin on mt4Application Firefox 29.0 User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux i686; rv:29.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/29.0 /1/firefox/29.0/Linux/en-US/ Extensions Adblock Plus 2.6.9.1-signed ({d10d0bf8-f5b5-c8b4-a8b2-2b9879e08c5d}) ChatZilla 0.9.91.1.1-signed ({59c81df5-4b7a-477b-912d-4e0fdf64e5f2}) Image Resizer/Scaler 1.6.1-signed (jid0-hd39BGK3EuIbK47rGW3fZdR163o@jetpack) ) ) ) Pin It Button 1.36 (jid1-YcMV6ngYmQRA2w@jetpack) Stylish 1.0.7 ({46551EC9-40F0-4e47-8E18-8E5CF550CFB8}) ) Zoom Page 13.4 (zoompage@DW-dev) Javascript : True Graphics : Intel Open Source Technology Center -- Mesa DRI Intel(R) 965GM x86/MMX/SSE2 : Mesa DRI Intel(R) 965GM x86/MMX/SSE2 : : : Intel Open Source Technology Center : : 2.1 Mesa 9.0.3 : {u'AzureCanvasBackend': u'cairo', u'AzureFallbackCanvasBackend': u'none', u'AzureContentBackend': u'cairo', u'AzureSkiaAccelerated': 0} : 0 : [u''] : 2 : Intel Open Source Technology Center -- Mesa DRI Intel(R) 965GM x86/MMX/SSE2 : False : Basic Modified Preferences : 0 : 358400 : False : False : 358400 : 6 : 20140428194349 : 20140428194349 : 29.0 : True : 29.0 : True : 1433809973 : 26055 : application/pdf : True : False : True : True : 0 : 1 : 1432062222 Misc : No : No Close Helpful Reply The page loads okay for me.ethereum trust twitter

Now when I go to save screenshot, it saves it in jPEG or PNG and when I go to save it in pictures ...or search most recent, it's not there, like it's not supported.I normally screenshot and can copy and paste it to clipboard, or (ALL FILES), but it won't let me choose ALL Files, just Jpeg and PNG and then I can't "browse" and upload the screenshot.Something so basic becomes a real pain.I am sorry but I cannot get the screenshot going.But back to my problem here.... Firefox doesn't know how to open this address because the protocol (Bitcoin) isn't associated with any program.Save the screen shot to the desk top if you can.If you are still having problems, create a new folder and put it there.Normally you would only see that message if Firefox was instructed to open a link in the form bitcoin://someaddress/ which didn't seem to be part of the page when I loaded it.Based on reading a few other threads on the web, it seems that you would encounter that kind of link when making a payment in Bitcoin, which is not something I tried (or could try).

I was going to say that Firefox usually discovers protocol handlers from the Windows registry seamlessly, but that obviously doesn't apply to you.You might need instructions from MultiBit or its community on exactly what the command string should be.Question owner ok thanks for your help...I have question in at Github for MultiBit.....and after the fact, I figured out screenshot.....after getting my other problem resolved....and I am back on track with most current version of Firefox!That image shows what error I am getting regarding protocol.See also: / /en/faq Question owner OK I contacted MultiBit and got a thread up on GitHub and they closed the thread and said it was a Firefox Configuration.I would have suggestions about the Windows registry if you were on Windows, but I don't know where Firefox learns about external program protocols on Linux, other than what is in the article I linked to before./Register_protocol Chosen Solution I doubt I will use bitcoin, unless it becomes way more mainstream, but I would have thought the idea of using multibit is that it deals with everything for you.
