In upper 1/4 of window, mouse will not open items

In firefox window mouse does not open items in top 1/3 of window. Normally arrow changes to pointer hand. This does not happen in upper 1/3 of opened window. In lines above the page items do open.

That problem can be caused by the Yahoo! Toolbar or the Babylon extension that extents too much downwards and covers the top part of the browser window and thus makes links and buttons in that part of the screen not clickable.

  • My mouse will not open any files or folders

    My mouse will not open any files or folders.  I've had to do a hard reboot but nothing changes. The mouse will scroll across the screen but it will not left or right click on anything on my desktop

    Hmmm, does the right button also not work?
    One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
    PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
    Reboot, test again.
    If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport, or some USB or Firewire device, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
    Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
    Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...

  • Windows 8 will not open

    I have the windows 8.1 operating system.  I've done all the deleting and reinstalling everything more than once now.
    After that iTunes will open but only once.  If I close the program it will not open again.  Tried troubleshooting it through the computer but no luck!
    HELP

    So did troubleshooting with a different computer work or no? Sounds like you need to contact Microsoft to have them take a look into your registry and clean it up.

    CD package has license number stripped from Apple. How do I get the license number

    This is not a Mac/Apple issue.  You need to contact the seller and ask where the Windows XP product key is.

  • I have uninstalled and reinstalled and Firefox for windows 7 will not open. There is no error message--it just doesn't open, even in safe mode. What do I do?

    My computer is set to auto update for Windows 7 Home Premium and for Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010. I am also running Norton 360. There was a major update for Office on 12/10/14 that seems to be when my problems started. This month, every time my updates have caused a reboot, Mozilla has failed to open. I have uninstalled it and reinstalled it several times, and it has only lasted a day or two before it crashes again. This last time it will still not open. All the instructions to troubleshoot seem to be based on the idea that the program is open and just has issues. I can't even get it to open up in Safe Mode.
    I have tried to reinstall, and it says that it will launch automatically when the install is complete, but it is not working. Since Norton scans every download before it runs, I'm not certain if that is where the problem is since I never get the window that shows the step by step installer for Firefox.
    What do I need to do?

    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. A clean reinstall is not the same as a regular reinstall performed using the built in installer. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from [https://www.mozilla.org mozilla.org] (or choose the download for your operating system and language from [https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ this page]) and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (or open the Firefox menu [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and click the close button [[Image:Close 29]]).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    More information about reinstalling Firefox can be found [[Troubleshoot and diagnose Firefox problems#w_5-reinstall-firefox|here]].
    <b>WARNING:</b> Do not use a third party uninstaller as part of this process. Doing so could permanently delete your [[Profiles|Firefox profile]] data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and saved passwords. <u>These cannot be easily recovered unless they have been backed up to an external device!</u> See [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]. <!-- Starting in Firefox 31, the Firefox uninstaller no longer lets you remove user profile data.Ref: Bug 432017 and https://support.mozilla.org/kb/uninstall-firefox-from-your-computer/discuss/5279 [Fx31] Windows uninstaller will no longer offer the option to remove personal data -->

  • Safari in both MacOS 10.6.8 and Windows 7 will not open PowerPoint SlideShows but Firefox Will

    Having Created a PowerPoint Slide Show I find that it cannot be shown with Safari neither in Mac nor Windows 7.
    The error message in Windows 7 is: "WebKitErrorDomain error 102"
    The error message in Mac OS 10.6.8 is "Frame Load Interrupted."
    The exact same Slide Show is easily shown with Firefox 28.0 in the Mac and Firefox 27.0.1 in Windows 7

    To start with, my computer is the late 2008 model Imac, has 3g of memory …
    I'm assuming you mean the Early 2008 iMac since there is no "late 2008" one. AFAIK, it came with 2 GB of RAM standard & the common BTO option would have been 4 GB, so can we assume that you have installed an aftermarket memory module to get to 3 GB?
    I've already had it serviced, and was told that the issue was resolved, and was unrelated to hardware. Fifteen minutes after repair and setup, the exact same symptoms occur.
    What repair and setup? Is this something you did after getting the iMac back from service? If so, what exactly did you do?
    I had no initial problems with the install of either os (mac or windows), except to note that I couldn't install the apple software updates on the windows side.
    Do you mean the Windows drivers or something else? Did you follow the Bootcamp install procedure exactly when reinstalling Windows or not?
    I switched back over to mac to look for and install a video firmware download that I had located through these same forums.
    What video firmware download do you mean? AKAIK, there are none for early 2008 iMacs.
    No offense intended, but it is hard to understand exactly what you have done because while you mention much, you don't say a lot about the specifics for a lot of that. In general, it is best to concentrate on those things & keep the commentary to a minimum.

  • Windows partition will not open using Boot Camp on iMac 10.9.5

    OS:  27" desktop iMac, Maverick 10.9.5, 8 GB RAM
    HD Partions:  iMac OS X, Windows 7,  Boot Camp
    For some unknown reason I am having problems getting Windows 7 to open after starting up in Boot Camp, and it's getting progressively worse. After starting Boot Camp I select the Windows 7 partition and either click on that icon or press "Return/Enter". This is where everything freezes and I have to shut down and reboot again into Boot Camp to try again. Sometimes it works, other times not. I've already tried 8 times tonight but can't get into the Windows 7 partition. The OS X partition and everything else is working fine and I have all of my updates.
    Any help or suggestions is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Dennis

    I am trying to boot into an existing W7. When I turned on the computer this morning I booted straight into Boot Camp and then successfully went into W7 with no problems, never going into the OS X partition. I later rebooted straight into OS X (the default startup) and read your comments.
    I entered the four lines of commands you suggested in Terminal and this is what I got...

    I reinstalled it. It works. I am able to open it but then the same problem happens again. Does any one know they appropriate way to install oracle developer suite 10g on windows7.
    To install it I did the following
    Install Oracle Developer Suite 10g on Windows 7 (64bit)
    Recently, I got a task to install Oracle Developer Suite on Windows 7(64bit), but there seems lots of hassles to achieve this goal. There is a thread on Oracle forum on that topic. Here I log what I did to get it installed on my Windows 7(64bit) with 8G RAM.
    extract the setup files (version 101202) downloaded from otn.
    right click the install\setup.exe property, set compatibility to Windows XP SP2
    edit the virtual memory size to custom size from 1024m to 8000m, restart it
    run the install\setup.exe
    Hope this helps.

  • Firefox will not open new window, Why?

    I have Vista home base premium operating system. I am a regular user of Mozilla firefox after had lots of positive feedback as one of the best browser. I had no problem for a good while, until recently I found out my add-on firebug stop working. Then I noticed that firefox stopped working properly, ie; it will no more open new window/s. One window will open after rebooting and i can have a number of tabs opened. When I right click on a web link and take the option to open it in a new window it will not open. When I take the option to open it in a new tab then that would be ok. When I go to the toolbar and click on File and chose option "open new window" again it will not open. I have on many accasions completely installed Firefox using the IObit software and use the advance system care to clean the registry and completely scan the system. I then reinstalled the latest version of Mozilla Firefox. I did that twice. The problem is still there. About the ad-on firebug, when I go to the toolbar and click on Tools, i can see Firebug with the extended arrow, but when I click on the arrow to the extended options, it simply would not respond.
    There must something going on, please help.

  • A second browser window will not open and then closing the 1st window firefox will restart. Taskmgr shows it still running, it will not restart until I end the process in taskmgr.

    I open the browser and close it every thing is fine. I open the browser and then attempt to open a second browser window, it will not open. Now because I've attempted to open a second browser window firefox will not restart after closing the open window. Until I've shut it down in the taskmgr. This just started the other day and I have removed the only update I made that was "flash" and I removed the 64 bit version of firefox.

    Win 7 with iTunes installed - I was also having problems with that.
    "netsh winsock reset" at the command prompt resolved all issues and Firefox launched normally.
    Check to see if Winsock is corrupted. May prevent FF from communicating with the web and consequently fails to launch properly - for my situation was not a firewall or antivirus block!

    Right-click the cmd entry that appears in the search results, and then click Run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for a confirmation, type the password, or click Continue.
    At the command prompt, type the following, and then press ENTER:

    Then, you should see the following message:
    Successfully reset the Winsock Catalog. You must restart the computer in order to complete the reset.
    Restart the computer.
