As I scroll through a file, it drops to the bottom or flies off the side of my screen. It reopens when i click the file, but why is is flying off of my screen?

I am having a new issue with my Macbook Pro.
As I scroll through to review a file the file flies off to the side or drops off the bottom of the screen.
I can reopen the file okay but scroll 3 or 4 times and it whooshes off the screen again.
This has never happened before this morning.
I wonder if it is not a symptom of a bigger problem.
I have been downloading Shutterstock files for the last few days & have 100 images in the file that is acting up.
Could it be that the file is stuffed too full?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Shannon

I'm going to assume you don't have a fancy multiple monitor desktop...
This page contains a script that positions the browser window at the upper left. If Firefox is your default browser, then copy the following:
http://dev.jeffersonscher.com/jstest.html
and paste it somewhere that you can click it, such as a Word document or an email. If you have enabled the Run command on the Start Menu (more info: [http://www.nirmaltv.com/2009/01/15/enable-run-command-in-start-menu-in-windows-7/ How to Enable Run Command in Start Menu in Windows 7]) then you can simply paste it into the Run box and click OK to launch it in the browser.
If the script method doesn't work, you can use the slow method. With the Firefox window active, press Alt+Spacebar to open the control menu, then press the right arrow once, then press the left arrow repeatedly until the window comes into view. When you can see enough of it to be able to click and drag its title bar, press Enter to complete the move operation.
Any luck?

I am using Firefox 3.6 on my PC , and now, when I select File New Tab (Ctrl+T), no new Tab shows up. Nor does it show up when I click the new Tab symbol next to my other tabs. How can I get the New Tab feature to work again?

In the past 48 hrs, all of a sudden, the New Tab feature on my PC< using Firefox 3.56, simply stopped working. I did not change settings, or download a new version of Firefox. it just stopped working. There are other scenarios where it does still work (for example, if I want to open a link on a web page, I can right click and open the link in a new tab), but if I simply want to have multiple websites open at once on my PC, I am forced to have multiple versions of Firefox open, as my New Tab option seems to be disabled or something. Can you help?

Leliforever, cheek you list of installed add-ons, the Ask toolbar can be installed without the users knowledge.

Something really odd is going on. In your first screen shot, I noticed that the Applications folder does not have the proper icon displayed in the side bar. Also, in the title bar it lists it as Applications 08-59-29-909.
Not sure where it's picking up that odd name, unless it's because it's still truly within the Trash folder.
Try this. In the Finder > Preferences > General > turn on "Always open folders in a new window". (I have a feeling you have the default setting with this off).
Now, in Finder > Go > move down and open the Applications Folder from there. Now open the folder where you see all your applications that you show in your screen shot, select all, and move them to this true appliactions folder.
This is what you should properly seeing (but with different apps listed):
See how the Applications folder has the icon of the letter A shaped with a pencil, ruler & pen.

I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:

If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

Apple only may, because it was jailbroken, exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours. Contact Apple to see.

Screen is blank when I click on the "Site" icon, no avenue to upload to an FTP. Help please

Trying to upload a website created through iWeb to an external host since MobileMe no longer an option. I Web is only linking to MobileMe when I click "publish". Researched instructions through the Apple tutorials and webs help sites, says to click on the "Site" icon, then a dropdown menu should appear. My screen in blank when I click on the "Site" icon. No options for loading to an FTP??? I have an external FTP purchased and ready to go, very frustrating. Thanks for any support!!!

iWeb 08 does not have that feature. You will need to upgrade to iWeb 3 in iLife 11 in order to get that feature. You can get iLife 11 at the online Apple Store while supplies last since iWeb (and iDVD) have been discontinued by Apple.
To pubish to an FTB server in iWeb 2 use the File ➙ Publish to Folder menu option and then use a 3rd party FTP client like Cyberduck to upload the site files.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

I was trying to clean up my desktop, and inadvertently switched all my icons on my desktop. When I click on file a, file b opens and so on, regardless of the extension type. Is there any way to fix this?

I use
Chronosync (http://www.econtechnologies.com/pages/cs/chrono_overview.html)
and
Dropbox (https://www.dropbox.com/)
Both work very well. The former I use for manual, one-way synchroniziation of (nearly) entire systems. The latter for automatic syncing of very active directories through local and shared online storage.

When I click the share button to email a file from Preview or Safari, I get an error sound

As one other user previously stated with a similar situation:
I use preview all the time to email pdf documents. When I click the share icon then click mail all I get is the "clunk" noise I associated with error messages, but nothing else, no dialogue window and no error message. I can't find anything in the Preview preferences about sharing.
How can I send the file that I am previewing with this sharp button via email. I use Outlook for Mac as my email program. Outlook for Mac 2011 version 14.4.8

Do a backup.
Quit Preview.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Remove the following. You may not find them all. Restart and test.
Containers/com.apple.Preview
Containers/com.apple.quicklook.ui.helper
Preferences/com.apple.Preview.LSSharedFileList.plist
Preferences/com.apple.Preview.SandboxedPersistentURLs.LSSharedFileList.plist

Once the tracks are in your library, you can right-click and use the command Get Album Artwork. This command will attempt to match your track(s) to the item in the iTunes Store, and get the cover art.
If that command does not succeed, you will need a copy of the art in .JPG format, either by scanning your CD cover, or by getting it from the web. Once you have the art, right-click the track, choose Get Info, go the Artwork tab and paste it in.

Ask in the ID forum and be much more specific about your configuration. there could be any number of reasons why manifests, temp files or restore files are created.
