Can't see context menus (right click, or "Firefox button" menu)
Recently my Firefox hasn't been letting me see right click menus. It only happens in Firefox, and will still let me use keyboard shortcuts (such as pressing 'T' after right clicking on a link to open it on a new tab). I thought maybe it was one of my add-ons, so I re-installed Firefox 8 (had Firefox 9 before).
I hadn't installed any programs before this had started happening, it just started.

Whenever I open the iTunes store, the home pages of all of the sections (Music, App Store etc.) are BLACK. They still have clickable hyperlinks, but I can't see what I'm clicking. Any pagess accessed through the drop-down menus (even iHelp) or by randomly clicking I can't see.
Thanks but it's just my desktop that doesn't see it though. My notebook sees it everytime, even at the same exact time that my desktop doesn't see it. For example yesterday when I was typing up this post, I was typing up the post on my notebook because my desktop didn't see the router. I don't think it has anything to do with the router actually, but I wanted to see if anyone on here has encountered this issue before. Other forums have similar issues but I've tried all of the fixes I found elsewhere and they didn't work.
Any other ideas?
Thanks! -
Windows XP Pro, SP3. Firefox 3.6.3. Ever since updating to this version a few weeks ago I can no longer do a right click of the mouse and check the properties of an active url link on webpages. I've always had the option before. I want this feature back!!!!
In Firefox 3.6 Properties has been removed from the right click context menu.
You can use ''View Image Info'' or ''View Page Info'' in the right click context menu to see the (image) properties.
You can use the above mentioned extension (Element Properties 6) to get that context menu item back.

Redundant post - however the topic (title) is different to point out the potential of adding translation for right-click to universal app input controls. The part about a solution for translation is in bold at the bottom of this post ...
Bug: Universal app input controls (i.e. Start Menu, Task view buttons) ignoring and missing interpretation translating right-click to a left-click to activate context (menu) in universal app web style (similar to oo context menu for oo legacy style).
Bug: Task view: OO context menu: Should show "nothing" (like right-click Start Menu button) - but right click Task view shows the oo context menu for the Task bar (wrong context)
Besides behaving wrongly (should be like right clicking the Start button) ....
the problem is the user is likely to look for actions on that context menu.
However to activate the context menu for this universal app kind of behavior you actually need to left-click the button for the Task view ... and then you get the universal app like context menu.
Microsoft must have been trying to figure out what to do about this kind of voupling mismatch between legacy (right-click) and universal app (left-click) conmtext menus. confusing for users it weill become nevertheless.
But the left-click style supports touch.
One solution though is to support right-click on i.e. Task view and Start button. Thus for new kind (universal app kind-of)input controls - right-click will work (instead of just being ignored) just like left-click. Allthough not a correct left-click
- it will be helpful and interpretive translating the intension of receiving a context. A practical solution with right-click translating into left-click for universal app controls considering that the context menu actually has become a hybrid of left-click
and right-click (with a precedence for left-click though)This is a great post.
I couldn't have written it myself better.
I'm also in dying need of Korean input as I can't communicate with my Korean friends.
But I second every point.
I hope the tech teams are reading this. -
It happened after Mozilla Firefox's plugin crashed. Whenever I tried right clicking the refresh button or a page in History, it no longer prompted me to "open in a new page." Instead, the box showing the menu bar, navigation bar, etc. showed up. How do I change it back?
Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you. -
Can't Download Images with Right-Click on Mouse
I can't download images by right-clicking my mouse, like I do on my PC. For example, check out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_Dakota and look at the images of the flag, state seal and map near the top right corner of the page...
When I place my cursor over any of these images on either my PC or my MacBook Pro, my cursor changes to a hand, indicating that the images are hyperlinked. If I right-click on an image, I can choose a SAVE AS command on my PC, but nothing happens on my MacBook Pro.
If I left-click on a linked image, it simply zooms in, rather than taking me to another page. I'm using a small Kensington mouse.
This could be a Firefox problem. I think I recall downloading some sort of extension that allows you to zoom in on images, and I suspect it's more or less taken over. If so, I'll have to track down the name of the extension and try and zap it.
But I thought I'd check here first, just to see if other people have this same problem - or if you can suggest alternate strategies for downloading images.
Thanks.Well, I found a novel solution - it's called Safari.
I'll post on the Firefox forum to figure out why I
can't download images with it, but it seems to work
just fine with Apple's native browser. Thanks for all
the tips.
I just tried it, but I am using firefox 2.0 beta and I had no problems. Not sure what's going on. Have you tried any other pages or pics besides this one, which I don't think it would matter just wondering. -
How can I remove the default right click option of the text Area control?
How can I remove the default right click option of the text Area control?
Is there any way to disable this control in any of the text controls available?The iPhone does not store email addresses for received mail. The iPhone stores all email addressees for sent mail in a list of previous recipients. The list of previous recipients is not synced with Outlook or any address book, but the list of previous recipients is included with the iPhone's backup which is updated by iTunes as the first step during the iTunes sync process. The auto-addrss feature pulls from your contacts on the iPhone and from the list of previous recipients.
Different from the Mail.app on a Mac, there is no access to the list of previous recipients on the iPhone to remove a previous recipient from the list, or to add a previous recipient to contacts that is not already entered - not at the present time anyway.
The only way to purge the existing list at the present time is by restoring your iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup.
Hopefully access to the list of previous recipients will be included with the iOS 5 update. -

Background, Images, & text is blacked out. I can not see any menus to edit anything... Help
Background, Images, & text is blacked out. I can not see any menus to edit anything...
The curser shows there are links when you move over. I have uninstalled and re-installed Firefox and restarted my computer with no luck.
I can not see the menus to try and reset Firefox or change any settings.
HELP Pleasehello obrienn214, other users with this problem all had an embedded intel hd3000 graphics card with an old driver present. in case this also applies to you, here would be a link to update the driver, which in turn should also address the black firefox problem: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?DwnldID=23764 (for win7 64 bit)
in case this doesn't solve the issue or does not apply to your system, start firefox into safemode '''by pressing the shift key while the application is launching''' & disable hardware acceleration in the firefox ''menu ≡ > options > advanced > general'' (that setting will take a restart of the browser to take effect).

I have Mozilla Firefox as my web browser. However I have just lost my Firefox "button" on the top of my monitor screen and can't get it back. How do I do that?
Hello andytuveson, right-click on an empty section of the Tab Strip and uncheck Menu Bar in the pop-up menu.
see : [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/display-firefox-button-menu-instead-menu-toolbar Display the Firefox button menu instead of the menu toolbar]

After right clicking the Firefox Icon, a window pops up above the icon with three sections in it. Two are titled, they are "Frequent" and "Tasks."
The "Frequent" section each time I see it, has added previous sites that I have visited. This list then has lots of duplicates in it. I do not need that, and would like to keep this listing a a favored few.
Is there a way to stop having superfluous web-sites added to the "Frequent" list ??

Until this 29 update, I was able to simply right-click in the Bookmarks menu on any Bookmark and do whatever I wanted like open it's properties to edit it or simply delete it straight from that menu. Now, suddenly, that right-click menu is all blanked out. It's only usable when you go to the Bookmark manager. Why was it necessary to forbid people from deleting and editing Bookmarks from the Bookmark menu?! Why do I have to now go through some extra steps of opening the Bookmark manager then finding the Bookmark to edit or delete it when I could have done all that straight from the menu?!
hello, can you try to replicate this behaviour when you launch firefox in safe mode once?

I can only see the apple logo and spotlight on top menu, nothing else.
Hello
I am having problems with the contextual menus i believe.,
I can only see the apple logo and spotlight on top menu of my desktop, nothing else., i have no idea what happened,
i have not used my macbook for a while, several people in my place i created users for only surf the net, i logged in and noticed this now.
Please adviseHi Logic Pro
You probably have a corrupt preference file, specifically 'systemuiserver.plist'. But there are potentially two of them, so ...
In "/Users/<yourname>/Library/Preferences", delete com.apple.systemuiserver.plist
In "/Users/<yourname>/Library/Preferences/ByHost", delete com.apple.systemuiserver.xxx.plist where 'xxx' is a 12 digit (hexadecimal) numeric string.
Then log out and back in again. You may need to go to System Preferences to put back the menu items you need to display.
If this alone doesn't work, you may need to delete your caches, so repeat the above and then:
In "/Users/<yourname>/Library/Caches", delete everything. Again, you need to log out and back in.
Let us know if this helps.
