When I try to close the Firefox window, it is not closing. I have to click outside of the window and click back on the x button in order to close it.

For example, if I type something into the Google search bar and then try to click on the minimize or close button, nothing happens. In order to close Firefox, I have to click ''outside'' the firefox window (on my desktop or task bar) and then I can click close. If I click inside the window again, I cannot close.

You could exit Firefox from the File menu. You can also use Ctrl-Shift-W to close the window.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • HT1918 My iPhone and my iPod have different account email addresses, I would like to sync them.  When I try to change (using edit) it reminds me that I already have an account with that name.  I don't need the reminder, I need to change the email address

    I used different email addresses when I signed up for my iPod and my iPhone.  I would like to use only ONE email address for both devices.  When I try to edit, it tells me there is already a user with that address (hint:  I know that!).  Does anyone know how to sync two email accounts into one?  Thanks,

    When I go into my account settings and try to change my old hotmail address to my current Yahoo! address, it tells me "That email address is already used as an Apple ID."  Yeah, I know that.  I set up the account that I'd really, really, like to have together, but it won't let me go further.  End of activity!  It is trusting that my email account and password are correct b/c it will let me make purchases, etc., so it's not like it is preventing fraud or anything.   Summary:  iPod = Yahoo!, iPhone = hotmail, would like to have both reflect my Yahoo! address. 

  • My daughter and granddaughter both have the same model iPhone.  I can text my granddaughter but when I try to text my daughter I get the message that she is not registered at iMessage, but I know that she is and gets texts all the time. What do I need to

    My daughter and granddaughter have the same model iPhone.  I can go messages and text my granddaughters phone from my ipad2, but when I try to text my daughter I get the message that she is not registered with I message, but she is registered and gets texts all the time.  What do we need to do?

    What blue bubble are you trying to turn on? If you mean that the Send button will not work, go to Settings>Messages>Show Subject Field>Off. Make sure that is set to off.
    If you send an iMessage, the texts between the devices appear in a blue bubble.
    iMessages only work between iOS devices and they are different than the standard text messages that any cell phone can send to another cell phone.

  • HT204291 I have updated the new iOS today and the mirring feature still does not appear on my iPad, iPhone 5 or Apple TV and all are on the same network ... Now what?

    Ok it's been two weeks and I have not been able to mirror since I updated to IOS 7.  I have called the support people with no avail.  I was hoping that the new IOS7.2 software would fix the problem but once again I was mistaken... Do any of you know a way that I can go back to the IOS6 system so that my stuff will work?

    Thanks, but a I indicated in my original post, I have already tried everything in that KB article.  That article doesn't address the fact that I can mirror from an iPad 4, but not from an iPad 2.  According to all of the documentation about mirroring, there is no reason why the airplay / mirroring icon shouldn't appear.  It's explicitly enabled on iPad 2.

  • I just upgraded to Firefox 4 and when I try to open it I get a message Cannot use with this version of OS X. How do I go back to the old version?

    Question says it all.

    Thank you. BUT, I've been downloading since noon. Download speed is 1KB/s, and it says that I have 2 hrs, 25 minutes, no, 2 hrs 27 minutes, wait, 2 hrs 28 minutes (and growing) to go.
    I hope the Mozilla folks post a system requirements warning, next time.

  • Firefox won't close down all the way after watching a video. I exit out, and the sound continues. When I try to re-open firefox, I get a message about how I have to restart my computer. How do I fix this?

    Basically whenever I watch a video and I exit out of the video I have to restart my computer to get Firefox back open. If I exit out or go to a new page while the video is playing, the audio continues like nothing has happened. I've checked my task manager and it shows that Firefox is closed. When I try to re-open Firefox I get an error message that tells me Firefox is running but is unresponsive and I have to restart my computer. How do I get it to stop doing this?

    Try holding control, alt and delete down in succession and then a dialogue box will appear with windows task manager. Once open click on the Processes Tab and look for firefox.exe. Highlight this and then click end process. It should come up with a warning but just click Yes. This should then close firefox and allow you to reopen it from your desktop without shutting down your computer. Hope this helps.

    How are you saving a new bookmark?
    There 5 ways to save a new Bookmark in Firefox, the first 4 should offer to save the new bookmark in a folder:
    1.
    2. Right-click and select Bookmark this Page.
    3. Bookmarks > Bookmark this Page
    4. Double-click the Star that is on the right side of the Location bar.
    4a. (A single-click on the Star will save the new Bookmark to the Unsorted Bookmarks folder, without opening the Edit this Bookmark dialog.)
    5. Drag the website image in the URL bar into the Sidebar view of Bookmarks
    or to the Bookmarks menu bar item and then into the drop-down or onto the Bookmarks Toolbar

  • When i try to update to firefox 3.6 it says close firefox but its not running

    when i try to update my firefox to firefox 3.6 it will get to installation wizard and it will say close firefox but it isint running and im getting tired of it i need help

    If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
    * Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    * Install the new version that you have downloaded
    Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

  • (solved) When I try to use IE, Firefox opens and finds the site instead. How do I stop it?

    When I try to use IE, Firefox starts up and takes the address from IE and opens it in Firefox. I need to use both browsers. How do I stop this?

    I imagine you have Firefox set as the default browser. Unset that in firefox
    * Tools -> Options -> |Advanced| -> |General| -> system ... <br/>and uncheck the option to always check that Firefox is the default browser
    * now open IE and use IE's settings to set that as the default browser
    Now if for instance you open an internet link, or a HTML file on your Windows XP desktop they should open in IE
    Post back with how you get on.

    WiFi signals get stronger the closer the machine is to the router and the less interference/blocking of the signal like via walls with metal in them or of thick concrete.
    Since the signal emanates outwards in a sphere, your supposed to place the wireless router in a central location in the building so it covers all areas.
    The power of the router also has a affect, if your router is old or something not that powerful like a Airport Express, it doesn't have the ability to filter out other signals or enough punch to get through walls etc. or cover a large area as effectively.
    If you buy/have a powerful router of newer make and have issues where there is metal in the walls or thick concrete, then you can buy something like OpenMesh and by using Ethernet cables from the back of the router, extend the WiFi signal into other rooms and areas past the blockage.

  • I am getting this error message, " The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded" when I try to go to Firefox home. I have uninstalled add-ons, uninstaleed and reinstalled a fresh new firefox which did not help

    I am getting the following error message, " The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded" when I try to go to firefox home. I uninstalled add-ons , uninstalled Firefox and then installed a fresh version. Still have the problem.
    Thanks for the help

    That issue can be caused by a corrupted or incomplete Visual C++ installation (multiple versions can be installed side-by-side; SxS) that is missing some runtime components (Redistributable Packages) that Firefox depends on (problem with an embedded manifest file that specifies a specific runtime version).
    You need to install the missing components (e.g. VisualC++ 2005 Redistrbutable).
