I'm having a hard time connecting!
- Do you have the latest versions of FireFTP and Firefox? The latest version can be found here: http://fireftp.mozdev.org
- Make sure your username and password are typed in correctly. Passwords are usually cAsE-sEnSiTiVe!
Are you behind a firewall? Try turning it off temporarily to see if it
is the source of your problem. If so, you might have to configure your
software to allow FireFTP to access the Internet.
- Does
your server allow only active mode? Try turning off "Passive Mode" in
FireFTP under your account's configuration options. This is found on
the "Account Manager" dialog, under the Connection tab. Turning off
Passive Mode is also known as Active Mode.
- Do you use a proxy? Try setting the proxy under Preferences- />
- Have
you been able to connect with other FTP clients? Please check to see if
the problem is reproducible with other FTP clients.
- Have you tried connecting to other servers? Please check to see if the problem is only specific to a certain server.
- Have you tried using another computer? If possible, try another computer to see if the problem is the same.
- Are
you using a router? Go into your router control panel and turn on port
forwarding for ports 20-21 and for the port that your server uses
(14147 for FileZilla), then set them to forward to your IP address
(usually something like 192.168.1.100).
- If all else fails, you just might have to use an alternative FTP client. I recommend using FileZilla or SmartFTP. Hopefully, I'll be able to resolve your particular issue in future versions.
Uploading causes crashes!
This is a problem that should be fixed in version 0.92 and up.
There are no horizontal scrollbars I can't see my files!
This is a feature that the people who brought you Firefox are working on. The feature is
coming.
I'm using a proxy and it's not working!
Support for proxies is limited still. Hopefully, support for proxies will improve in future versions. Try using
AnalogX's proxy - it seems to work well. If you're using Squid, see
this note.
Proxy with authentication does not currently work - it's a technical
issue with Firefox that will be hopefully be resolved in a future
version.
I don't have permission to view a parent directory of a directory I'm trying to access!
If you are getting "550 Permission denied." errors when trying to login
to your site you can try setting Account
Manager- Directories- to the
initial directory that you wish to view.
Why is uploading slower than downloading?
FireFTP is usually on par with other FTP clients as far as speed goes.
The reason uploading is slower is because your internet service
provider (e.g. Comcast, Qwest) will usually give you a much higher
download speed than upload speed for your internet connection.
Why can't I connect with VMS, IBM servers?
FireFTP doesn't currently support these types of servers. It's on the todo list though.
Why can't I access network folders?
FireFTP cannot access network folders - it's a technical issue with
Firefox that will be hopefully be resolved in a future version. For now
the workaround is to map your network drive to a letter and that will
make it work. Also, you can try dragging the file from Windows
Explorer. (you can't drag to however)
Why can't my large files (over 4 GB) be transferred?
FireFTP cannot work with files over 4 GB - it's a technical issue with
Firefox that will be hopefully be resolved in a future version.
Why don't the timestamps on the files on the server match the dates on my local files?
There are two issues here. 1.) Your remote files will usually have a
different date because the server is located in a different time zone.
2.) FireFTP cannot change timestamps on local files to match server
file times - it's a technical issue with Firefox that will be hopefully
be resolved in a future version.
Firefox 的ftp扩展fireftp无法支持中文。真可惜一直在关注，可是中文乱码的问题还是没有解决。没有办法已经从我的firefox extention里面删除了。不支持中文对于中国人来说已经没有任何意义了。
下面是官方网站的说明：
I'm not seeing my multi-byte character language (e.g. Chinese, Japanese, Russian; i.e Unicode) being displayed!
Currently FireFTP cannot handle these types of languages. I am currently looking for a solution for this problem.

最新版的已经可以支持中文了：
what's new/changes
added unicode (UTF-8) support - it's sweeet :)
changed export to save out encrypted passwords as well
fixed problem with incorrect directory changes if hidden mode enabled
fixed problem with downloads of external links not working
added support for almost any encoding (major props to ccpp0! look under an account's settings->advanced->server encoding; 0.96.4 change)
很多内容本身不是UTF-8的，显示出来就会是乱码，设置回GBK的就好了。
