Cannot type at all in Firefox 26.0

I have tried all troubleshooting solutions presented in other threads, including completely reinstalling Firefox. It started this morning and hasn't stopped. It is only Firefox, I can type elsewhere fine.

Please enter at most 3 letters or numbers. Two letters is fine with that instruction.

This is the second time this has happened to me. The first time I chalked up to a freeze and restarted my phone. Now it has happened twice, and restarting was the only way I could get past it this time, too.
When using my Messages program to send text messages, I suddenly become unable to type. At all. Switching to other programs and back to Messages isn't enough. Both times this has happened, I have had to restart the phone.
Has anybody else encountered this? Have you found a way to get around it short of restarting the phone?

I cannot type accent marks in firefox 4

Firefox 4, Mac OX 10.6.7
I Firefox 3 I could type an accent mark using the US keyboard by
pressing the option key. For example to type é, I would type option e followed by e.
Now in Firefox 4,the only way to type the accent marks is to use the French keyboard. Is there a fix for this or is this a bug in Firefox 4?

Such a composition of characters is usually handled by the OS and Firefox shouldn't have effect on it.

I cannot type anywhere in Firefox

This has happened twice, and both times I could not pinpoint a cause.
Currently, I cannot type in any field of Firefox (address bar, google bar, websites, nothing). I am running 17.0.1, and have no add-ons. I have tried restarting the computer, re-installing firefox, virus scans, security updates, and everything else. Nothing seems to work. This is frustrating enough that I no longer want to use Firefox, even after so many faithful years.

Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
*Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
*https://hacks.mozilla.org/2010/09/hardware-acceleration/
Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before reinstalling a fresh copy of Firefox.
*C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Installation_directory
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 17.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you will also lose your personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

After upgrading to latest I cannot type text on my commodities trading website. I can if I use older versiion of firefox

I can utilize site but when I try to type in text I cannot make it work.

Perform the suggestions mentioned in the following articles:

* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
Check and tell if its working.
May not be related to your problem but some of your Firefox Plugins are out-dated

Crashes when I attempt to clear browser history;temp fix:I use IObit Security to clean browsing history,cannot clean it all,cleans most,I am then able to clear the rest of my history thru Firefox;I thought this info would help solve the problem

Crashes when I attempt to clear browser history;temp fix:I use IObit Security to clean browsing history,cannot clean it all,cleans most,I am then able to clear the rest of my history thru Firefox;I thought this info would help solve the problem

Crap thought that text was all the characters I was allotted, not just the title.
Anyway I wouldn't have even posted this if you guys would have allowed me to reply to the already existing thread I found through google. Said about 20 or so people had the same problem and no one found the contributor's answer useful, including myself.
Anyway, I use Firefox, because it is one of two (other being internet explorer) that Trend Micro's security package includes protection with. Same with spyware blaster which I also use but Trend Micro is the deal breaker. Also I like Firefox 4 and your ad blocker is better than google chrome's. However if I continue to have problems with clearing my browser history it is back to Opera and Google Chrome for me. IObit Security supports both of them, it also seems to be the best security system I have ever come across, I will just pay for their subscription and stop using Trend Micro.
This is a very big problem I hope it is being addressed. Only addon I have is your ad blocker. Also this is completely on your end, not ours. I am the perfect test, my computer is brand new, and by brand new I mean I just started using it the other day, the same day my firefox browser kept crashing as I attempted to clear my browsing history.
Windows 7, 8GBs RAM, AMD athlon II quad core 2.90 GHz
Can't even clear an hours worth of browsing history without firefox crashing.

I'm using Firefox 5.0 and I cannot type a value into a drop down menu.

There is a webpage with a drop down menu box.
When I open the page with IE, I can choose from the listed values OR type my own value,
When I open the page with Firefox, I can only choose from the listed values BUT CANNOT type my own value.
The page is on my company and so I am sorry that I cannot show it to you guys at the moment.
Is there anything I can try modifying so that I can make the box typable?

Go to Options > Advanced > General and uncheck the "Use hardware acceleration when available"
Hope this will solve your problem :)

All of a sudden I cannot watch any videos using Firefox, not even from YouTube. Why?

All of a sudden I cannot watch any videos using Firefox. All I get is a square black box. I can see them if I use Safari. Why isn't my Firefox working? What can I do? Thanks.

Try clearing the Cache in Firefox.
Tools-> Clear Recent History -> [v] Cache
or Firefox->Preferences->Advanced->Network -> Offline storage -> [Clear Now]
Try clearing the Youtube cookie in Firefox->Preferences->Privacy
refresh page.
If that still does not work then try making the youtube url as http'''s'''://
It is apparently a issue with Youtube as people with other browsers are getting the same. http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/youtube/thread?hl=en&tid=3cda4dac122b8f13

I cannot type into Firefox.

I cannot type into Firefox. It worked fine yesterday. I noticed that it upgraded to 23.0 earlier and then 25.0 later in the day. I run it once a day for a particular website. Curiously, I can cut and paste, so I typed this in another application and then pasted it into this box. It is rather annoying that I couldn't use a different browser to report the problem.
Other applications and web browsers work just fine.
Control-V does not work. I need to use the right click menu to do the copy and paste in Firefox.
I tried running in Firefox Safe Mode and tried re-installing Firefox.

'''Follow up. ''' Very strange. I saw the Help/Keyboard Shortcuts menu and went to that page. I started trying some of them with no effect, until I accidentally pressed the "fn" key on my laptop keyboard. Suddenly, I could type again. This seems very odd, in that nothing else seemed to be affected. Still, it is good to have Firefox back.

'PortfolioBacklogs' cannot appear more than once if content model type is "all"

I'm trying to add another level above feature and have followed these instructions https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn217880.aspx
The project is setup as scrum not agile, maybe that is why???, but I get the following error:
'PortfolioBacklogs' cannot appear more than once if content model type is "all"
and haven't been able to find where to change the content model type.

Hi Dckennedy1,
Thanks for your post.
What’s the version of your TFS? TFS 2013 Update 4? Your current team project created using default Scrum 2013.4 process template?  After which step you received this error? You can share your error screenshot(s) here.
I created a new Scrum 2013.4 template team project in my TFS 2013 Update 4 Server, and followed the steps in that document to add Initiatives work item type in my TFS Web Access, the Initiatives work item type be added into portfolios successfully, you can
refer to the below screenshot:
The only difference with steps in that document is I edited the PortfolioBacklogs section as below in my ProcessConfiguration.xml file.

I cannot type in any of the firefox windows. How do I fix?

I cannot type in any of the fields when I open the firefox browser.
It's not my keyboard (as you can see - I am sending this from internet explorer). I have reset, uninstalled, and reinstalled but it is still not working.
How do I resolve?

Some have reported that pressing F9 and the Windows key simultaneously one or more times has worked to fix issues with the keyboard not working.

I cannot type a capital i using the left shift key. also keyboard now putting the cursor in a different place than where i type. Checked speech keys, all fine. Batteries fine.

i cannot type a capital i using the left shift key. also keyboard now putting the cursor in a different place than where i type while i am typing. Checked speech keys, all fine. Batteries fine. Also used the keyboard check program on the imac, shows key ok.
wireless mouse will suddenly scroll down horizontally and won't stop. when i am on a webpage it will bounce back to the previous page without my doing so. i have tried adjusting the mouse several times, turning it on and off, and now am using my wacom mouse which also seems to have issues with this computer. i have only had this a few months and getting very frustrated.

Can you try a different keyboard to see if the problem persists? Also, you have 90 days of phone support when you buy a mew mac.

Do a malware check with a few malware scan programs.
You need to use all programs because each detects different malware.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database.

I cannot type Unicode characters (Vietnamese for instance) in Flash input textfields.

Given the same website containing a Flash Input TextField, I can:
# Type Vietnamese properly on IE
# Type Vietnamese properly on Google Chrome, but only when the Flash '''wmode''' property is set at "windows" (not transparent, nor opaque, etc.)
# Type Vietnamese properly on FireFox 3.6
# '''Cannot''' type Vietnamese properly at all on FireFox 4 Final, no matter what wmode is set to

There are two "serial" numbers (the product number) that came on the product packaging.
The software is Adobe Flash Professional CS5.5 Student and Teacher Edition, purchased from Amazon.com and needed student verification to obtain the license.
^ [ I figured out what was wrong, but I'll just leave the information here for anyone in the future that may have short-term memory as well ]
I have just went through my records that I recovered from my laptop and it seems that the serial number on the product package DOES IN FACT have letters in it. But I think that I had to register it with Adobe and verify that I was a student before Adobe would give me my legitimate serial number that contained only numbers. So this is why there are tons of these threads about this that never go answered because the people asking and the people helping are both right and wrong at the same time. The students are trying to use the only serial that was provided to them, but it isnt the true serial. Maybe Adobe could be more clear that it isn't a serial number for the product underneath it? "Product Code" is synonymous with "Serial Number" to most people.
You use this code (the code with letters in it; the "product code") to contact Adobe and verify your status as a studen/teacher and then they give you the true serial number that is all numbers. Search your email for mail from Adobe to find your serial if you have already done this. I had completely forgotten how the process worked since it was a while ago.
Thanks for the help Mylenium, I hope this helps whoever comes across it in the future.
