When clicking "Save image as" how can I get Firefox to auto add a (1) (2) etc at the end of the filename if an image with the same filename already exists?
How can I get Firefox to automatically rename images when clicking "Save image as" on the menu, when an image with the same file name already exists in the folder??

Hello,
That is not a feature that is supported natively within Firefox but there are various add-ons which I think will do the job you need.
The one I have used is Web Slide Show. This is primarily an add-on for viewing a slideshow of images when they are presented as thumbnails on a web page. However once you are in the slideshow there is a download button which will download all the images in the slideshow. It will automatically rename the images if an image with the same name already exists in the folder.
If you don't like that add-on then here are some others that may do the same job:
I hope that helps. Let me know if not.
Also I notice that you are using Firefox v23. That is now an outdated version. To get the latest security updates I suggest updating to version 24. See the support article here: Update Firefox to the latest release.

This is great, I myself use the addons "Image Toolbar" and "Save Images" that have this feature but what would be great is to add this feature to all Save dialogs of Firefox. Sometimes I'm forced to use the good old "Save Image as..." option in the context menu or "Save Background image" and that feature is not present there. I don't know if this sort of "transparent" behaviour can be achieved with an Add-on or if it would need to be coded in the Firefox program itself, but it would be great to have it.
