moving from 4.4 -> 4.9 with 'quick access' problem


Recommended Posts

Was using the old and now trying the new however I have an issue with the 'quick access' website snapshots of the tabs, everything else looks good so far.  In version 4.4 I have certain pictures for the various websites that works great because everyone knows just by the look of the picture.

I installed 4.9 both ways, overtop of 4.4 and also clean of 4.9.  When installed both ways the 'quick access' page does list all of the website tabs however it downloads new website screen shot pictures on both install methods.  I want to keep the old website screen shot pictures I already have from 4.4. 

I've read about copy/past over the thumb.dat.  I've tried that and no result to get back the old screen shot pictures I've had in 4.4.

While 4.4 is installed I did a passport update so that I can transfer over with a clean 4.9 install.  After the 4.9 clean install the sync again does show the websites, all are there however it always gets new pictures.

 

What can I do to archive the old 4.4 screen shot website pictures and re-add them to 4.9?

 

thanks a bunch

My experience with 4.4.8.2000 (and earlier) and 4.9.3.300 (and earlier) is that website images routinnely update to a screen shot of the last visit.  I don't know and have never thought to try locking them down.  Mabe there's a way, but Id expect undesrieable effects like not being asbe to add a new site, not beng able to sync, etc.

For me acutally the pictures have always stayed the same after I add a particular website even after years of updating maxthon though the various builds.  I've never manually updated/refreshed to get a new picture.  It for me has also never updated the picture by itself either.  Just trying to figure out what is different that this update is so different than everything else in the past as those pictures have always 'ported over' just fine.  Yes, a different type of platform but would think that would have been an issue.

update:

So actually looking very close at the 'quick access' website snapshot pictures I can make out a date of time.  The pictures are of 4 months ago which I find very interesting.  I've updated/reinstalled 4.9 now a number of times and everytime the 'quick access' pictures are of that time stamp, 4 months ago.

If it can keep a picture static as it is, I just want to put back the originals that I had with version 4.4 and numerous builds before it.  I've got no clue and trying to figure out why it seems to me that randomly it decided to pick snapshots of 4 months ago than what was used in the builds before.

Could it be a feature that we can choose our own pictures for the 'quick access' website snapshot tabs?

What specific file deals with the "quick access" screen shot website pictures?

 

Thanks again!

Ckmullin, Unfortunately, we can't re-add 4.4 screen shot website pictures in to 4.9 quick access temporarily, because now there is no features of change pictures in "Quich Access" Function.

I will send this requirements to design team. hope it could be added in the future~

I tried to change the settings from "background" ( website title) to "screenshot" : 3 remarks :

  • it takes a very long time to update
  • several sites show as "down" ("unable to connect") although they work fine (no issue with "background" setting)

http://www.ta-meteo.fr/lamalou-les-bains

http://www.zone-telechargement.com/series-vostfr.html

  • I tried to return to previous setting (title) : earlyaccess is frozen until all screencaptures are loaded : settings don't hide, I can't close the tab

if you refer to my screen capture, you can see that some websites are shown as "down" although they're not.

(and there are several sites I can't add to EA from open tabs list  : I have to manually enter the url)

I can see an "error 520"  on your screenshot.. not quite what I get but similar (site seems to be down but when I click the tile, it opens)

Sorry but I have to leave to work, won't be able to update until the end of the day.

I think you just use 2 web on QA, but we are migration from old version.

Basically, we have many web on QA. for the example, I used 8 page with around ~80 web on QA.

PS: don't want us to try reduce the web.

And my original issue is ABP is not work well on QA. NOT ABP work on normally browsing.

sorry, looked wrong. :( 

we just test it, the QA picture actually looks like your screenshot. but this's not a bug...

It's not  ABP problem. we disabled ABP, the screenshot is same.

Tester told me "This webpage AD is a delay AD. At the moment of the QA system taking the screenshot, the ADs has not displayed. So a piece of blank in screenshot."

Also thanks your feedback~

Do not test this, it is almost impossible to fix, even by deleting appdata user  QA folder.

Thanks for passing it along.  I think it would be a good feature to allow people to use their own pictures for the tabs.

Hello, Kdasoft. We will set up "General Discussion" Part as "read only" soon (at the end of May). This problem need more information to confirm and test process needs time.

For convenience of feedback and solving problem, it would better to create problem in new "Bug Tracker" Part: http://forum.maxthon.com/index.php?/bug-tracker/

For details, please look at here: http://forum.maxthon.com/index.php?/announcement/7-upgrading-for-general-discussion-section/
