As of today, Firefox windows no longer resizeable! OSX 10.6.8, Firefox 20.0

As title suggests, the resize control on lower right corner of all Firefox windows is gone!

Does the hardware acceleration checkbox reach that setting?
Firefox menu > Preferences > Advanced > General
Uncheck "Use hardware acceleration when available"
A restart usually is necessary for that to take effect.

  • Switched from IE8 today and can no longer print Fed Ex shipping labels. Fed Ex help desk says its a Firefox problem and they are unaware of a fix.

    We used IE 8 at work, with a Vista 32bit O/S. We switched to Firefox today, and can no longer print using our Fed Ex shipping printer, through FedEx.com. If we switch back to IE8, we can print labels.

    Does the label appear in File > Print Preview, and it just won't print? <br />
    Do you have the correct size "paper" selected thru Properties for that printer when viewed thru Firefox? <br />
    See if anything here helps: <br />

    If that doesn't help you, I don't know what else to recommend. Without being able to login to FedEx and without access to their printer, there isn't anything I can do to see what the problem with Firefox and their printer might be.
    IMO, FedEX should either tell you that their printer software is made to work to IE only or not. Considering that they are a worldwide company and that Firefox has like a 30% worldwide market share, they might be disappointing like 30% of their customers with vague help responses like that. Plus, IE is for Windows OS's, what are their customers running Mac OSX or Linux supposed to do if it doesn't work in Firefox?

  • Firefox windows no longer "combine" under taskbar button.

    Upgraded to Firefox 4.
    Firefox browser windows no longer "combine" or group under Firefox icon on the task bar.
    (Basically means that all of the same types of windows - FF, IE, Word, Windows Explorer - stack or group with each other under their respective icon in the task bar instead of having many icons spread out across the task bar.)

    Hi Cor-el,
    Thank you for your kind attempt at fixing this problem.
    I performed both of the fixed suggested above and still no pictures within the buttons. I closed FF and restarted and no joy.
    Can you PLEASE keep scratching your brain and think up something eles?
    As described...when looking at my email web page there used to be in the "reply" button a left pointing arrow and the "forward" button had a right facing arrow. Now there is nothing but a very faint box around where the button is (almost cannot see it). It is the same with other web pages as well.
    If I hover over the button the "Reply" cloud-ey thing pops up.
    Without the pictures in the icons it makes the email page almost useless.

  • Since installing 3.6.9 my Joomla content editor pop-up windows no longer return the URLs selected

    I recently upgraded to Firefox 3.6.9 and found that when using the editor in a Joomla 1.0.15 website , the content editor pop-up windows no longer return URLs selected (eg: image or file URL to be used in a link). I have been using the site with no problems for many years, and the problem was cured when I reinstalled 3.6.8

    Thanks cor-el but the problem is not in my web development but is a new issue/problem in FireFox which was not present in all versions up to and including version 3.6.8 and was only introduced in version 3.6.9. I have also established that the same problem also exists in FireFox version 4 beta 6 and have therefore also raised a second question today.
    My understanding was that I should raise these issues in this forum, but I will also check out the other forum.

  • Warning: Microsoft may push IE9 today through Windows updates

    FYI - Our sysadmins are telling me that IE9 may get pushed through Windows updates today:
    http://www.tekgoblin.com/2011/03/21/ie9-set-to-release-today-via-windows-update/
    I just checked the relevant places, which do not yet reference IE9.
    MOS NOTE 1072324.1Is Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 (IE8) Certified With E-Business Suite Release 11i? [ID 1072324.1]
    MOS NOTE:285218.1 - Recommended Browsers for Oracle E-Business Suite 11i
    MOS NOTE:290807.1 - Deploying Sun JRE (Native Plug-in) for Windows Clients in Oracle E-Business Suite 11i
    And according to Steven Chan, as of Ferbruary 23rd, 2011 Microsoft IE9 has not been officially released, nor is it currently supported:
    http://blogs.oracle.com/stevenChan/2011/02/win7-sp1-ebs.html
    I am about to test it anyway, in case the worst happens and it gets pushed to all our PCs. Worst case we tell Users to only user
    Firefox, but some will try to use IE anyway.

    My point is that IE9 is being pushed out by Microsoft and Oracle Apps DBA's may be getting a flurry of calls tommorow with users who can't get in. Unless you can tell your Desktop Admin's to find an install the IE9 blocker tool if it is available (our own network admins are working on this now). Note: IE9 willl never install on XP - since Microsoft designed it to NOT be compatible with XP. So XP-based machines are safe.
    I found out a few things just testing for compatibility. At list in my environment: 11.5.10.2 on 11gR2 on Solaris 10 update 8 for Sparc, and Java Update 24, non-Forms pages are fine, launching forms took a couple of tries, had to click "Recover Webpage" and try 3-4 times, but was finally able to launch forms and after that they seem to be ok. This was the 64-bit version if IE9 on a core 2 duo PC with Windows 7 Professional. On my laptop which is 32-bit and has 32-Bit Windows 7 Ultimate, I have not yet had luck launching forms in IE9 despite trying compatibility view, open new pages in a new browser window, and various other tricks that might work. So overall just based on this sample of 2 machines, it is not a smooth/ easy birth into IE9, but if/when you can launch forms once, it seems ok.

  • Since updating to 3.6.15 today, back button no longer works and FF doesn't remember URLs

    Since updating to 3.6.15 today, back button no longer works and FF doesn't remember URLs. Not just that memory of previous URLs got wiped out, it still doesn't remember the ones I've typed in since I updated. And No back button, it's really hard to use.
    I went thru all the settings and could not find a way to fix this problem. What is up? I've never had this happen in any version of IE, FF, or Chrome.
    Can I get back previous version? Until then, it's Chrome and IE for me.
    I'll be happy to delete any plug-ins if it will make this problem go away.
    THANKS in advance!

    Thanks. This didn't solve te problem but it seemed to have solved itself. all of a sudden it started working properly, without me even closing FF and starting it up again. Thanks Cor-el, if it happens again I'll try your solution.

  • Gnome 3.10: New naulilus windows no longer cascade

    Hi,
    I'm not sure whether this change in behavior happened with Gnome 3.8 or 3.10, but here goes:
    Whenever I open a new nautilus window, the window no longer opens in cascade. Instead, it always opens up in top left corner of the desktop. So instead of neatly cascaded windows, I get a pile of windows in exactly the same place.
    So is this a bug or another great Gnome "feature", and is there a way to fix it?
    Regards,
    jtts

    Hi Brad and welcome to Discussions,
    Hi John,
    A later done partitioning to add additional partitions to a harddisk alters the position of the BootCamp partition in the partition table so that the Windows Bootloader can not 'find' the Windows partition.
    With Windows XP it helped to simply edit the Boot.Ini file and point it to the WIndows partition.
    With Vista and Windows 7 there no longer is a boot.ini but EasyBCD http://neosmart.net/dl.php?id=1 can do the same.
    One thing to remember though is, that even Vista and Windows 7 'suffer' from the limitation of four partitions on one harddisk immenent to the Master Boot Record (MBR) since Apples EFI/GPT/MBR emulation can not handle Extended Partitions and Logical Partitions inside an Extended Partition.
    Regards

  • As of today, many podcasts no longer available on Apple TV. Why?

    As of today, many podcasts no longer available on Apple TV. Why?

    The offering list does not look any different to me.  The 15 or so I have flagged are all still there.   You would need to contact the pod caster and ask why they stopped distributing their pod cast via iTunes.

  • Command to Start/Stop "Windows File Sharing" on OsX Tiger Client

    Dear Mac Gurus:
    How to use command to start/stop “Windows File Sharing” on OSX Tiger client?
    Thanks!
    Max

    Hi Max,
    Windows file sharing requires two daemons, nmbd and smbd. They can be started/stopped as follows:
    To start (type the following all in a single line):
    sudo launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/nmbd.plist /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/smbd.plist
    To stop:
    sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/nmbd.plist /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/smbd.plist
    The option "-w" indicates that the default setting (whether start them at boot time or not) is also modified (the same effect as you turn them on/off via System Preferences -> Sharing). This means, if you start them and shutdown your Mac without stopping them, then they will be automatically restarted next time you reboot the Mac.
    If you use "load -F" instead of "laod -w", then they are started but the default setting is not modified (if it is off then remains off).
    If you use "unload" instead of "unload -w", then they are stopped the default setting is not modified (if it is on then remains on and will be started at next reboot).
    If you feel the commands are too long to type, then you can devide them into two commands, for example:
    sudo launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/nmbd.plist
    sudo launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/smbd.plist
    See launchctl man page for more detail.

  • Windows can't find OSX partition

    Windows, both under Boot Camp, and Parallels 6, used to be able to recognize the partition on which OSX is installed.  It stopped recognizing it and I don't know why or how to fix it.  My version of OSX is Snow Leopard; version of Windows is Vista Home Premium (32 bit).  I have been thinking of upgrading to OSX Lion.  Would that fix the problem?  I am also thinking of upgrading to Parallels 7, but doubt that it would fix the problem since Windows does not recognized OSX partition even in Boot Camp.

    I don't know if it's the same, but I removed a lot of devices in Device Manager (for example the  and they get automatically reinstalled)
    For example I uninstalled "Apple Broadcom Built-in Bluetooth" and "Microsoft Bluetooth Enumerator" under Bluetooth Radios and all devices under Human Interface Devices. To the point that no mouses or keyboards worked and I had to plug-in a wired USB mouse to go on...
    When I say that I lost the bluetooth connectivity, I mean only my BT mouse (a MS Sculpt Touch mouse I bought yesterday. My Apple Wireless Keyboard works.
    But my mouse dissapeared after reinstalling the bootcamp software and I can't for the life of me reinstall it again. It gets discovered but it gets an authentication error before pairing. Alternatively, I can right-click on the discovered mouse and check the HID BT services and when I OK it starts installing to dissapear after getting "succesfully installed drivers"

    In osx, all three partitions show when i go to preferences-... (osx is selected as default boot disk)
