Can't see the Firefox window when it starts.

Running Windows 7 home edition. On opening Firefox, the window appears to try to open to the right of the screen. There is no window visible apart from the small preview in the task bar. Consequently, I can't drag, click on or access any of the options. This happened after installing Silverlight which has now been deleted. Firefox has also been deleted and reinstalled. Any ideas?

I managed to solve things by getting it to open in 640 x 480 and then restoring a previous version. There was no way to drag, move or bring the window back to the screen that I could find. Apparently an update was released to fix the problem of the screen wandering off. I didn't have that problem but the update automatically installed and disappeared the Firefox window off the screen. It was only Firefox that had the problem.

    If you use Lion, go to Applications/ Mission Control and, if you have more Desktops, as attached, it means you have more, and you must select the one you need for a certain app. If default settings has not changed, this is Control with left / right arrow
    If in Snow Leopard and earlier, you have these settings in System Preferences only. In Lion, you also have some settings in Sys Prefs.

  • In Firefox can not see the Downloads window, in the jump in the boot to be seen - the download speed Downloaded much and now can not see how to fix it?

    Downloaded much and now can not see how to fix it?

    I hate the new downloads-in-a-tab scheme. This was an unnecessary change in my book (if it aint broke, don't "fix it").
    So in order to get it back, I performed the about:config browser.download.useToolkitUI change, but now all I get is a blank download window that pops up every time I download something.
    Is there something else that I need to do? I've checked the change and it was saved, but it didn't resolve my issue as much as it just caused me a new issue.

  • Where can I see the downloads LIST when downloading podcasts, like in the older version of iTunes?  I find it frustrating that I see only one at a time now !  Any suggestions please?

    Thanks for taking a stab at it: that didn't prove to be the problem. That option in the settings for tabbed browsing was not checked.
    I may be a bit behind the times: I am used to tabbed browsing showing all the tabs it possibly can, instead of just the last one. Sometimes it won't even show the last tab: I can have 15 tabs open, and not see a single tab. I've been confused by this into closing a window with lots of tabs open, because it looks like a single page-window.
    My main problem with the tab-bar flashing to the end of the row is that it means a great deal more mouse-clicking around to browse.
    I haven't tried installing the latest beta. Maybe that would fix the problem.

  • Cannot see the application window when the program is run

    I wrote a java GUI using Jbuilder. I cant see the application window when i run the program. THe program compiles successfully but the application window pops up only showing the blue title bar and minimize maximaize and x out icon on it. I done see my GUI or anything below the 1 inch long blue title bar. Can someone plese tell me what i am doing wrong. Thanks.

    A quick look-up in the API confirms that pack is not deprecated. Setting the size of the window to a specific size is quite a bit different than what pack accomplishes. Pack determines the preferred size of all of the components, lays out the layout manager and then sets the size of the window based on the size of the components inside of it. Calling setSize, however, will force the window to be a specific size no matter what the components want and thus creates a window that is probably not the right size for the components inside of it.

  • I can't see the EXS window

    I'm trying to create a sampler instrument in Logic Pro 9 complete installation.
    I start a project with a software instrument and select the EXS24 as Input... But I can't see the EXS window. All the instructions I have found so far tell me the next step is to click Edit in the top left of the EXS window... but I can't see how to make it appear.
    Thanks for your help...

  • Why I can't see the button fuse, when I drag and drop a folder into same name folder

    Why I can't see the button fuse, when I drag and drop a folder into same name folder
    I saw the option only one time, and i reseach in the internet and I find fuse option, but now never saw again.
    And Yes, I drag folders with the same name.

    Ok, Gracias por su pronta respuesta, yo necesito arrastar una carpeta a otra ubicacion con una carpeta del mismo nombre, entiendo que lion te advierte si desea reemplazar el contenido o fusionar (mexclar el contenido)
    como lo dice aqui :

    3. Podrás combinar tus archivos y carpetas. Seguro que alguna vez has perdido algún archivo al combinar carpetas o archivos del mismo nombre pero distinto contenido. Ahora, cuando intentes mover una carpeta a un lugar con otra de idéntico nombre, tu equipo te preguntará si prefieres combinar ambas o cambiar una por otra. Los archivos serán tratados de una manera similar: Cuando coincidan archivos con el mismo nombre, el sistema te preguntará también si quieres mantener ambas copias.
    y en muchas otras paginas que tratan el tema.
    mi problema es que esa opcion no me aparece. solo la opcion de reemplazar (o no reemplazar o detener)
    Lo increible es que alguna vez el mismo dia de hoy si me aperecio la opcion.

  • TS3988 I am receiving email that I should verify my password for iCloud but I can't see the link that I should start. HELP please!!!!!!

    I am receiving email that I should verify my password for iCloud but I can't see the link that I should start. HELP please!!!!!!

    You select the desired file (tick the square box on the left of the file name).
    You click on the "share"/"send" icon (the envelope with the arrow that points up and to the right).
    You are presented with the share/send dialog.
    Here you select the "Send To" choice.
    This is done by placing a tick in the box beside either "Public Link (create a public link for anyone to view)"
    OR
    "Personalizdd Link (send email invitations to individuals)"
    NOTE: The second choice is only available if you have a subscription to Adobe Send service.
    So, for a free "Files" account in Adobe's cloud you'd tick "Public Link".
    At the bottom left you'll observe the "Create Link" button.
    Click it.
    You are presented with a new dialog that informs you that the Public Link has been generated and that link is provided in a field within the dialog.
    You can copy the link to a text file for future copy-paste into a post to a forum or bulletin board or you can provide the link to otheres via an email.
    Be well...

  • I just updated to the latest version and now I can't minimize the firefox window. How do I get this back?

    I have a Mac and can no longer minimize the firefox window by double clicking the title bar into my dock since I updated to Firefox's latest version. How do I get this feature back?

    I've always been able to minimize all my windows by double clicking the title bar. Yes, I could click the yellow button -- I just want the old feature back because I do it so automatically. Now when I double click the title bar it opens a new tab. I was able to do this with all the previous versions of Firefox as well.

  • Can't see my Firefox window and tabs, but they are somehow open

    Yesterday I had a single Firefox window (with approx. 20 tabs) open, and then the window disappeared. I figured that I'd lost all my tabs.
    When I opened a new window, and attempted to check my Outlook mail, I got the message "There was a problem opening your mailbox. You may have already signed in to Outlook Web App on a different browser tab. If so, close this tab and return to the other tab." I am now hearing a *ding* whenever I get a new email. However, I cannot find the window or tab in which my Outlook is open! It's like the Firefox window is invisible or hiding somewhere.
    If possible, I'd like to locate this invisible Firefox window, and not have to re-locate all the websites I had open in the tabs. I've opened the Windows Task Manager, but it doesn't show any open Firefox applications.
    Any ideas? Where is this open Firefox window hiding?

    Thank you much!

  • After installing Lion os I cannot see my desktop 1 nor can I see my open windows when I go to finder, I just get the grey/black background that comes with mission control. Any ideas as to how to solve this problem?

    The top picture is what my Desktop 1 looks like. And the picture below is what my desktop looks like after clicking mission control. Ive tried changing wallpapers, changing preferences, etc. and I still can't figure out what's wrong. As you can see, on mission control you can't see any of the open windows, or anything that I have placed on my desktop. Any ideas as to how to solve this issue?

    Hello cor-el, thanks for your reply. I changed my settings for downloads to desktop and it has appeared on there. When I double click I am asked which program I want to open file. I click firefox and another box "opening install" says I have chosen to open the file which is an application and do I want to save it. This is the only real option so I press save file. I get a box saying this is an executable file which may contain viruses - do you want to run. I press ok and the final box showing C drive file name and desktop appears stating application not found.
    This happens the same whenever I try to install.
    To my untrained eye the application is not being recognised as an application and I cannot work out how to get it to do that.
    My plugin is still showing as out of date.
    Is there anything you could suggest. Thanks for your time.

  • Why do I see only the border of the Firefox window when I project the image wirelessly?

    I am trying to use FF on a Dell Latitude latop to an Infocus projector using LiteShow Manger to connect the two- the connection is wireless. I have no problems with establishing a connection nor do I have any problems with seemingly any other piece of software on this system as far as the image being displayed on the screen. FF will open properly with no hesitation or error message and the home page is displayed just as it is seen on the laptop. This is the weird part....the image on the laptop is normal and changes with the clicks of the mouse or use of the keyboard, but the image on the projector will stick and freeze on the initial image. I can see the mouse move across the FF window but no changes are displayed on the projected image. The problem is isolated to the area within the blue border of the FF window. To sum up the image will not update past the initial page image in the FF browser window.

    I ran into the same problem with a user. System would not draw the screen when projecting FireFox to an InFocus 1501 wireless projector.
    Started FireFox in safe mode and it worked fine, but would not work in regular mode, even with all the add-ons disabled. System works just fine with IE or other applications.
    Note that this just applies to FireFox 5.x and doesn't appear to be an issue with older versions.
    Solution: Tools > options > Advanced > General tab > Hardware acceleration
    Turn off hardware acceleration.

  • How can I enlarge the firefox window where the theme is displayed?

    I would like to enlarge the area where the persona/theme is displayed at the top of my screen.

    Add some Toolbars to see the entire height of the persona image = 3000px by 200px ''(I don't think the full width of the Persona image can be seen on anything except a wide screen TV display)''.
    Firefox comes with 3 Toolbars, the Menu bar, the Navigation bar, and the Bookmarks toolbar. It may vary depending on your operating system and whether you have Large or Small toolbar icons selected, but on my system I need to have 10 toolbars showing to see the full height of the Persona I have selected.
    ''YMMV''
    View > Toolbars - Customize
    Then hit the '''Add New Toolbar''' button, name that new toolbar ''(I named them Spacer 1 -7)'', and then add a single ''' ''Space'' ''' to each new Toolbar. Repeat until you have 7 more Toolbars. When you're done - hit the '''Done''' button.
