Can not get web page all of the way out to edge of computer screen tried to drag but did not work

just got a new computer ..when i go to a web page the page does not go all of the way out to the side of the screen...i tried to grab and drag it but it did not work...i am new to this computer thing...need help

I just had that problem today and although it unfortunately probably won't help you minus47, (as you said disabling your Add-ons didn't help) I tracked my problem down to 'Fierr' as the culprit and disabling it fixed it.
To be honest I don't know why as 'Fierr' hasn't been updated since January '11 and Firefox only started playing up today.
The only other thing I updated today was Flash Player but I'm not sure if I installed it before it started playing up though.
Hopefully this might help someone else.

  • Somehow my iTunes app has been put into the trash.  How can I get this and all of the stuff that was in it back to my Application folder?  I try to drag it out of trash, but it won't work.

    Somehow my iTunes app has been put into the trash.  How can I get this and all of the stuff that was in it back to my Application folder?  I try to drag it out of trash, but it won't work.

    Also, when I do try to drag it out of the Trash to put it back into Applications (on the Finder sidebar), it asks me to authenticate with the administration password.  I enter it, and then a window appears saying that I can't do that because I do not have permission to modify iTunes.  Please help.

    Hello ashlyn888,
    Based on your post it sounds like you would like to sync your iBooks content with your computer. I have located an article that may help you in this situation. While you can sync this data with your computer you can also use the sharing button to send PDFs using various sources:

  • If you can't get web pages with internet sharing, do this.

    I could not find anything about this so I'm posting it for others, seeing as it took me a day to figure out!
    I set up a wired Bellsouth Ethernet Mini running 10.4 for internet sharing. I had a MacBook laptop to share the connection. The laptop worked with mail but Safari would not load web pages. It took all day but I realized that the laptop was not getting the DNS from the Mini.
    I found out the DNS numbers for Bellsouth and entered them (on the laptop) in the Airport TCP/IP box in Sys. Pref, Networking, "Show Airport" TCP/IP DNS box: 205.152.144.23. I'm told that 8.8.8.8 will also work (Google's public DNS server) but I have not tried it on the laptop but it worked with my iPhone.
    As soon as I put those numbers in there Safari sprang to life (on both laptop and iPhone) and worked great.
    I don't know why the Mini did not "share" the Bellsouth DNS address with the laptop. I hope this helps someone save a day of hair-pulling and frustration!

  • How can I get web page to retain button count values

    Hi,
    I have a button which, each time it is pressed increments a
    number. The number is shown in a text box. This all works fine, on
    my web page. However if I close the web page and then reopen it,
    the count number goes back to zero. How can I keep the number it
    was (eg 10) and keep incrementing it ?
    I have the button on Frame 1 and the text box on Frame 2.
    Thanks,
    Paul

    You will need to use Shared Object to store the info on user
    drive.
    It is Flash's native form of cookies and works locally (from
    exe projector)
    as well as in browser.

  • How can i get rid of all of the "other" stuff on my ipod.

    I can't get it and my ipod is over capacity because of the "other" stuff on there .

    An other less that about 1 1/2 GB is normal.
    If larger that large usually indicates that the "other" includes corrupted files.  Usually restoring from backup eliminated the corrupted files. However, sometimes restoring to factory settings/new iPod is required.
    To restore from backup see:

    To restore to factory settings/new iPod see:

  • HT1414 How can I get my IPad back to the way it was before I updated it? I hate the way it is now!

    I recently upgraded my IPad because I thought it was a necessary security upgrade since Apple's security was recently compromised. I did not know it was going to reconfigure my settings. I hate it the way it is now and don't know how to get it back to the way it was. Is there anyway to reverse the upgrade without losing my pictures and other data? I also lost some expensive courses I had purchased. They are no longer there when I open the app.  I hate the way it organized my pictures too. I have no control over this, and it makes me very unhappy. Is there a way to fix it?

    I am afraid you can't.

  • How can i deauthorise my old laptop so I only have my new macbook as my pc. My old laptop is broken and I can't use it at all by the way!

    I have brought a new macbook air and have got it operating ok. But I'd like to de-authorise my old lap top which is
    broken and can't be operated at all. How can I do this please?

    Individual computers can only be deauthorised directly on them, but if you've authorised your account on your new Macbook then you should be able to log into your account on your Mac's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option and 'deauthorise all' (which you can do once every 12 months) and you can then reauthorise the Mac (and any other computers that you still have and need).

  • How can I get rid of all of the duplicates in my contacts without having to go in one at at time?

    Some of my contacts are listed 4-6 times...making my contact list over 8000!  How can I streamline this without having the delete one at at time
    PLUS how do I keep this from happening again.

    Go in Settings. Then in "Itunes & AppStore". Deselect "Music" and "Videos" on top. This would solve the problem with the Music and Videofiles in the cloud, that you seem to see.
    The music isn't actually on your iphone. It just shows you what is in the cloud.

  • Comcast just replaced my cable modem/wireless router.  All devices connect properly except my iPhone 4.  It shows itself to be connected to the network, but it does not load any web page.  Resetting the iPhone does not solve the problem.  Any suggestions?

    Thank you for your response.
    I had rebooted the router (several times, actually), to no avail.
    I do not know the answer to whether MAC filtering is enabled on the router.  Have tried to find info about that, but unsuccessfully.  Router is an Arris TG852G, supplied by Comcast.  I would be surprised if MAC filtering were the issue, since in addition to the computer, we have successfully connected several other devices to the wifi, namely an iPad, a Android phone and a Kindle Fire - all able to access internet pages through the wifi, and all without a need to add the device to a MAC address whitelist.  To add to the mystery, the Comcast tech was able to connect his iPhone 4 to my network and access web pages.  He was unable to connect my iPhone, however, after trying for some time.
    I seem to recall reading somewhere that an iPhone cannot connect to a wireless "n" router, only "b" or "g".  The Arris router is described as a n/g/b compliant router, and as noted the Comcast tech was able to connect his iPhone, so don't know why that would be the issue here.
    By the way, my iPhone does connect wirelessly to my network at home.  This difficulty is at a second home.
    Any other thoughts would be appreciated.

  • The pull down menu or icon for printing does not respond. The only way I can print a web page is by right clicking with the mouse and selecting print? Your comments please

    When I try to print a web page by selecting the print icon or by the pull down menu -print, nothing happens. It does not respond. I have to right mouse click and then select print, which then works. Why is this happening

  • I just updated to 10.8.4 and my mail program is showing a series of boxes with AAAAs inside them instead of the email addresses. Also when on Safari web pages are displaying the same AAAAAs instead of type. Firefox displays fine. Can someone help me?

    Restart your Mac and immediately hold down the Shift key when you hear the startup chime to boot into Safe Mode. Keep holding the Shift key until you see a progress bar towards the bottom of the screen. You can let go of the Shift key at that point.
    OS X asks you to log in (you will get this screen on a Safe Mode boot even if your Mac is set to automatically log in). Let the Mac finish booting to the desktop and then restart normally. This will clear Font Book's database and the cache files of the user account you logged into in Safe Mode.
    Next, close all running applications. From an administrator account, open the Terminal app and enter the following command. You can also copy/paste it from here into the Terminal window:
    sudo atsutil databases -remove
    Terminal will then ask for your admin password. As you type, it will not show anything, so be sure to enter it correctly.
    This removes all font cache files. Both for the system and the current user font cache files. After running the command, close Terminal and immediately restart your Mac.
