When I click on an action, nothing happens unless I keep moving the mouse pointer. This has only happened since I upgraded to version 6. Interestingly, the some situation is with the "SafeCentral" software.

This happens every time I click on a button or text that does something like, after entering some information then clicking on say, a button to "Continue". The screen freezes and the little symbol on the left hand side of the tab stops rotating, but starts as soon as I move the mouse. If I stop moving the mouse the screen freezes again. I also have installed on my computer the application, '''SafeCentral''', which I know uses Firefox. This problem has only been encountered since I updated to version 6 and also when SafeCentral update the Firefox version they use.
Wired or what!
Thank you for any assistance you can offer.

Michael Murray

Thank you for your prompt reply.
I think you have identified the problem straight away, well done!
I first encountered the problem a couple of months ago with an update on Safe Central, (protected environment) software. SC uses the Firefox browser. I won't insult you by explaining what the program does, I'm sure know better that I. I didn't have this problem with Version 5 of Firefox, so I conclude the easiest way to solve this issue would be for me to uninstall v. 6 and reinstall V. 5. As I only use SC for online shopping I can live with this miner irritation. I also notice the Trend Micro Toolbar, though it appears on the Firefox screen, does not monitor the web sites or check email addresses.
So the TM boffins also have a problem with V.6, but I wager they aren't aware of it yet. Just in closing, I also use Chrome and Internet Explorer that work perfectly well. The problem defiantly lies with Mozilla.
Kind regards
Michael

When i click on a web link in an email, i receive a "general failure" message reading "an error occured in sending the command to the application". this has only started since my upgrade to 5.0

i have an HP Pavilion with Windows 7, Outlook 2007 and Firefox 5.0. since my upgrade to 5.0, i receive the following error message when clicking on a url in an email. message reads:
General failure. The URL was: [here it repeats the URL]. An error occurred in sending the command to the application.
what is the cause? what can be done to correct?
thanks in advance.

I have the same problem after updating to 6.0.2 on Win 7 Pro SP1. Did not have any problems prior to upgrade to 6.0.2. (setting IE as default browser - yuk - allows links to be clicked with no problem)

Popup blocker keeps losing my "exceptions" to websites. every day I have to go back in and enter the exceptions. This has only happened with the last two Firefox versions.

I go to "tools" then popup blocker "exceptions". (I have the block popups checked.) When I enter "www.paypal.com" and add it in, everything is OK for about 12 hours (or less). I will check to see if the exception is still there within 12 hours and there is nothing in my exceptions. I have added as many as three exceptions entered only to have them all disappear within a few hours.
This severely cramps my attempt to print shipping labels on the PayPal website.
I thought this latest version of Firefox cured the issue, but it did not.

Make sure that you do not use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the "Site Preferences"
Clearing "Site Preferences" in "Clear Recent History" will remove exceptions that are stored in content-prefs.sqlite (site specific settings for zoom) and permissions.sqlite (exceptions for images, cookies, pop-ups, software; Tools > Page Info > Permissions) in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder].
The password exceptions (Tools > Options > Security: Passwords: Show Passwords) are also removed from signons.sqlite.

Firefox does not print in full web pages. It prints at best the left half of the page. This has only happened recently. It is not my printer as I get full page printing from from Internet explorer and other applications. Help!

Firefox has started printibg only the left side of a web page . I have tried adjusting the settings without any success in fact it made the print area even smaller. I have adjusted all the settings on the print menu but cannot overcome this. How can I return to printing full web pages?

Try the '''''reset''''' described here: <br />

I cannot paste text into my Hotmail account that I've copied elsewhere, using the mouse. This is only happening on Firefox.

I added the suggested extention, AllowClipboard Helper, but perhaps it wasn't meant for that. I'd hate to give up Firefox, but it's making me nuts.

Allow me to be slightly embarrassed - you must be exactly right. This morning I went back and tried again, and it worked perfectly!
Still makes me wonder why it didn't work yesterday - I restarted Adobe but didn't restart the computer like I did over night.
My system:
Windows 7 Pro (64-bit)
Intel i7 X980 3.33GHz
750 GB system drive
2TB Media drive
12 GB Memory
GeForce GTX 470
Running Adobe Production Premium CS4
AE version 9.0.3.8
Font used: Adobe Caslon Pro
Copied from character map with font: Adobe Caslon Pro
Everything in English (US)
I had a project in AE that was 80 seconds long, no external video footage but all built in AE at 1280 X 720, 30 fps
I'm guessing some background process maybe messed the clipboard up? Anyway, it works now and I guess it was a one-time occurence. If I can ever recreate this repeatedly - I'll be back here!
thanks!

Hi after upgrading to mountain lion my mail rules keep disappearing this has only happened since i installed mountain lion.

Hi after upgrading to mountain lion my mail rules keep disappearing??? this has only happened since i installed mountain lion.

I had Mountain Lion on two Macs. Mail rules were set up on a third Mac running Lion. I migrated everything on the Lion Mac across to a new iMac running Mountain Lion so now I have Mail rules on a Mountain Lion Mac. At least I should have. Several times a day the rules disappear. I assume this is iCloud synching messing up. I keep re-entring the rules but they vanish again and I'm getting tired of the game.
Large chunk of my Safari bookmarks bar also disappear at random intervals. It seems that iCloud can handle two Mountain Lion Macs on the same Apple ID, but can't cope with three.

"Your email account" means to tap on the name of your email account. Whatever it is listed as in the settings.
In my mail settings, one of my email accounts is a Comcast account. I tap on the Comcast name and it brings up this window.
Then I tap on the arrow under the Outgoing mail server smtp setting to get to the next window.
In the resulting window, I then tap on the arrow next to the smtp server under the Primary Server setting.
That brings up this window in which I check to make sure that my user name and password have been entered correctly. If those items are missing, enter them in the appropriate fields and then tap done.

Some times when I press the home button to read my finger the screen becomes black and it shows the Apple logo, this take a few seconds to get back the screen and this has been happening even 3 or 4 times in a row! What should I do?

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

HT4113 My daughters iPod touch asks for her pass code but when she types it in the cursor does not move or input any characters so,she cannot get into the iPod. This has suddenly happened for no apparent reason

My daughters iPod touch asks for her pass code but when she types it in the cursor does not move or input any characters so,she cannot get into the iPod. This has suddenly happened for no apparent reason, what can we do? Can anyone help please?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Iphoto will not open my iPhoto library......have tried everything. This has only happened in the last week.

Iphoto will not open my iPhoto library......have tried everything. This has only happened in the last week.
I have tried everthing suggested on the forum.

Did you follow these directions?
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.>Click on the Add Library button,
2 - select the library you want to add from those in the selection window.
3 - make sure that in the rebuild window the checkbox "Scavange orphaned photos" is checked.
4 - now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
5 - in the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed. Click on the Create button.
Note 1: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost.
Note 2: Your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.

When I send a PDF attachment by email the recipient sees only a blank unfilled form. This has only occurred since IOS 7 was updated. The email with the PDF when recieved by my MAC is OK, but my phone and iPad are not!
Any advise would be appreciated.

I have the same problem. Sought to insert a pdf into Apple Mail after editing a form pdf and only the blank form shows. I didn't use Preview to generate the form, just Acrobat. And, the filled in form inserts perfectly into an email when I use Outlook for Mac. Problem only with Apple Mail.

No matter what website I am on all of a sudden the page will be covered in black and white lines and I can't see any of the page. What is happening and how do I fix it? It has only started since I loaded Firefox 4 this week.

I am very frustrated because I keep having my pages become covered completely in black and white lines. It has even happened on this page when I tried to use the drop down arrow by 'this happened'. I can sometimes read the page if I click over the area I want to read but this is not common. This has only been happening since I downloaded Firefox 4. I thought this would be a better version but now I am not so sure.

I do not want to download another virus program.. I do not believe it is a virus. I am running the full version of Norton 360 and it is doing a daily scan. I have Windows 7, 64 bit OS.
This is very irritating !! If I wanted Yahoo I would ask for it !

When I click on an action, nothing happens unless I keep moving the mouse pointer. This has only happened since I upgraded to version 6. Interestingly, the some situation is with the "SafeCentral" software.
