The search box in upper right corner is non-functional with Firefox, but works with IE on same website, please explain.

This is a recent problem. I have not made any changes concerning my web browser. Perhaps I need to reinstall Firefox.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

    You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
    *Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.
    You can check if there is an update for your graphics display driver.

  • Remove the close button in upper right corner

    How do I remove the close button in the upper right corner?

    I'm trying to do the same thing. I discovered that it's not a Java limitation, but a look-and-feel limitation. You can use JFrame.setUndecorated(true) and JFrame.getRootPane().setWindowDecorationStyle(some_style_without_close_button), but this will only work if the current windowing system supports disabling native decorations (MS Windows does), and if the current look-and-feel supports window decorations. A quick test (in J2SE 1.4.2) shows that:
    Metal LAF -- supports
    Motif LAF -- does not support
    Windows LAF -- does not support
    Anyway this is not sufficient for me since I need to use the native look and feel on all systems.

  • The search box in top right hand corner of the firefox window has disappeared.

    Search box has just disappeared. Everything else seems to be as per normal. Don't know what I did to make it disappear but it has and I can't figure out how to get it back.

  • Icons keep moving to the upper right corner - a Finder relaunch fixes it but only for a short while

    I'm having an issue that really irks me and it's very frustrating.  Whenever I open certain programs (ie. iPhoto, Pixelmator, Safari (sometimes)) and I click to the desktop to either drag a file in or drag one out to the desktop, all the icons start gathering in the upper right hand corner on top of the Hard Drive icon.  No matter where I try to drag them, they all snap right back on top of the Hard Drive.  Now, I can stop this by option clicking and holding on the Finder dock icon and selecting Relaunch.  I can also turn "sort by" to none, but I am a little OCD and I like to have my icons snap to a grid.  Here's another vital piece of information.  I use my computer at work on an external monitor connected by the Thunderbolt port (an HP monitor) using a DVI adapter.  However, this occurs with or without using the external monitor.  I noticed this program started happening about 2 months ago after I swapped out hard drives (upgraded size) going from 500GB to 750GB.  I used carbon copy cloner to clone my hard drive as opposed to going with a fresh install.  I'm beginning to think this may have been a bad idea.  I have trashed all the Finder preferences, used Onyx to clear the .DS_stores and other tricks found on the internet.  Does anyone have a concrete way to fix this?  I am baffled with this one.  I've never seen this problem until recently.  Any ideas?

    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • What is the purpose of the 10+- characters in upper right corner. Why do they disappear when cursor roles over them?

    Possibly encrypted version of my input?

    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
    *In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    *In previous Firefox versions, click on the Firefox button at the top left of the Firefox window and click on ''Help'' (or click on ''Help'' in the Menu bar, if you don't have a Firefox button) then click on ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".

    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps in the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''

  • Gray Box Icon upper right corner?

    I have had my phone for 1 year now and now I have this icon that is a small gray rectangualr box with two dots in it to the right of my battery status on my main screen.  Anytime I had a voicemail it had showed up and then I would listen and it would disappear but I have no voicemails and it remains...what is this icon and how do i get rid of it? Thanks!

    That does sound like you voice mail indicator. Looks like this one below?
    If you have an errant VOICE MAIL waiting icon on your home screen:
    * Call your voice mail and clear the message.
    * Call your BB from another line and leave a message. From you BB, call your voice mail and clear and delete your messages.
    * If the above fails, pull your battery to reset and reboot your BlackBerry.

  • Can't see the blue clock clearly(upper right corner) in car dock station!

    Put the clock back in white numbers so it stands out clearly in day time light. I use it foe work and all day I have to lean right up into it to see what time it is! Make it like the white lettering contact or recent call names show.  Verizion, you broke it! Fix it!

    I brought my system up in SAFE MODE...my 'test' login DOES have DASHBOARD.app working. I don't know what the difference could be.

  • After closing Firefox with the red "x" in the upper right corner, every time I start firefox again it launches the last page(s) I was (yes I have it set to go to homepage in my settings, this does not happen if I close through the menu).

    I have a Win 7 PC using FF 4.0.1.

    I have noticed something similar with my Macs. If I close with the red X, I get a popup message asking if I want to close the tabs or cancel. If I close with Firefox > Quit or Cmd-Q, I get a message asking if I want to Save and Quit, Quit, or Cancel. The thing is, using the red X, is just supposed to close the interface, not the underlying process.

  • I used to be able to click on the maximise button (upper right corner) and then drag a firefox page from one monitor to another--I can still do this with other browsers but not with Firefox.

    Don't know what else to add in addition to what I say above. I am running Windows 7 Service Pack 1. Also use Windows Internet Explorer, Google Chrome.

    You drag the window by its Title Bar, always been the same for Windows.
