Clicking the red X does not close Firefox 8.0 have to right click and close from tool bar?

cant click on the red x to close firefox have to right click the taskbar to close the browser

Hi,
Indeed disabling add-ins and restoring the default theme work. From there on, the themes that do not work in my system [WIN7] are
FT Sleek Dark
Small Ring
But, the issue is that they DID work until some days ago so this needs looking into...

  • HT1430 I am unable to turn of my iphone. The red slider does not appear. I took it to a shop and was told that i could also shut it off by a screen tht slows a numbr of icons ans allows for customized motions for the phone, etc, etc.-but I still can't shu

    It is a simple thing to turn off the iphone witht the slider.  But my slleep button is not working and I am not at home to take it in.  I did take it to a local phone shop out of the U.S. and I was shown a different screen to customize movements that I could use and a number of other personalizations that i had never used before.  He showed me how to bring up the red slider without usint the sleep button, but it was fast and I now cannot find out how he did it.  It looked real easy but there are so many differnt things that one can do to adjust the phone to your own liking. Has anyone come across this before?  This would be for someone who knows how to use an iPhone 3S that has been fine-until now!  Thanks.

    No.
    As provided,  you will get the exact same model, storage, color, etc

    A reset should help. Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off button at the same time for approximately 10-15 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo reappears, release both buttons and await restart.

  • Every time I unmute my iPad, the sound efx does not come back. I can hear my keypad and the on/off sounds but no app sounds.

    Every time I unmute my iPad, the sound efx does not come back. I can hear my keypad and the on/off sounds but I can't here the sounds from deleting photos, clicking on apps that are on my iPad. It does this every time I unmute my iPad. Please advise.

    Hello PearldiamondMD,
    I was thinking of a few recommendations for you. I recommend our iPhone Troubleshooting Assistant found here http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/phone/#section_1. Start at section 1, if that doesnt fix it, then section 3, and if all else does not work, section 5. At section 3 I recommend closing ALL the apps.
    Here is section 1 to get you started.
    Restart iPhone
    To restart iPhone, first turn iPhone off by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button until a red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider and iPhone will turn off after a few moments.
    Next, turn iPhone on by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Is iPhone not responding? To reset iPhone, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least 10 seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If your device does not turn on or displays a red battery icon, try recharging next.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

  • HT201343 I just verified that i have an early 2011 Macbook Pro and the airplay icon does not appear.  i also have a 2013 Macbook Pro which shows the airplay icon.  do i need to enable airplay on my early 2011 or is there an update that is needed?  Confuse

    To check your model go to About This Mac (by clicking on the Apple icon, top left) and then select more info. If you wish to use mirroring you will need one from 2011 or later running OSX 10.8 or later. The alternative would be to use 3rd party software like Airparrot.

    I have reset my iphone and made sure all updates have been done on my macbook pro and iphone. It was after updating my macpro that I plugged in my phone and went to itunes to backup phone and can't see the device anywhere! I have also done all the troubleshooting that apple.com recommended too...all except re-installing itunes!

  • After I close Firefox, then later try to open, message says it is still running. Check app mgr and does not show Firefox running. Try to open again and message says already running.

    It seems Firefox keeps running after I close it. When I try to open browser, message says it is running and tells me to close it. I check Task Manager and it does NOT indicate Firefox is running. Unable to open Firefox at all. Have to shut down entire computer and sometimes this works. Anyone have this problem before?

    When you go to task manager, go to the "processes" tab, right click on "firefox.exe," and select "end process tree." In the picture I've attached, I'm using windows 8, so the UI is a little different, but I hope it points you in the right direction.

  • How do I close programs in IOS7.  The old way with double tapping the button and getting the red X does not work.  Even rebooting the phone does not work.

    How do I close programs with IOS 7?  The old way of closing programs by double tapping on the button, holding down an icon until it started shaking and a red X appears does not work.  Every program I opened appears.  Turning on and off the phone does nopt work.

    I just found out.  Above the icon is a copy of the open page of the program(s).  You slide the pages up to close.

  • The Acrobat executable does not close and consumes heavy resources.

    Folks:
    We have an Acrobat X Pro (10.1.7) installation in which the executable does not terminate when the program is closed, and it consumes an enormous amount of resources (40%).
    Any idea what is causing this?
    Micah

    Hi MS_DC_1,
    Please try repairing Acrobat and check. Is this reproducible on other machines in your environment or is it machine speciifc.

  • When trying to turn off iPad3 the red slide does not appear

    When trying to turn off the ipad3 the red slide bar never appears when holding the home button down

    That's because you DON'T hold the home button to power iPad down.  You press and hold the power button on the upper right hand corner of the top of your iPad.

  • Firefox does not actually crash. I have frequent power surges and Firefox does not want to reopen after a power loss. Any suggestions?

    Power outages are only a few seconds long as the power company switches providers. Happens once about every two weeks. If in a Firefox session, Firefox will not reopen for four to five minutes after the computer is restarted. When it opens, it does not return to the previous session with an error message that essentially states "Gee we're sorry and embarrassed". I am using Window's Vista with Firefox as my default we browser. Firefox is up to date with the latest version installed.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    See:
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    * [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe Mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • After a search page renders, the NEW FF does NOT open up a choice in a new window and you lose the search page. WHY? I do not like this!

    every internet browser keeps the main page that renders when you do a search. you can click on any of the options and a new window opens. the latest version of FF i downloaded today has completely removed that feature. when you click on a search choice, it opens up in the same window as the search page and you loose all your search options. that is not good..
    i may have to go to Chrome now unless you can fix this

    hello, this might be a preference in your google search settings. go to google.com/preferences and enable the option to ''Open search results in a new browser window''.

  • The Touchscreen on my iPod touch 2G doesn't work anymore? I turned it on this morning and the touch does not react. Now i have restored it twice and reseted it several times, no toch get recognized by the screen. Any help?

    Hello,
    I have turned on my iPod Touch 2nd Generation and i wanted to slide the unlock and the touchscreen didnt responded. I then did several restarts and also restored the device after reading some forums and help platforms and still it the screen doesnt react to touch at all. It can be conected to iTunes and i can sync, but not use the device. Any additional help to revive this great device? Or is the Genius Bar and another investment my only option?
    Thanks for anyone giving me a hand.

    If you restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod and still have the problem then you likely have an hardware problem and the Genius Bar is a good option.

  • My 3G does not work or wifi i have restored my iphone and rest network connection many times

    my 3G does not work at all i can never connect to any wifi at all i have rest network setting many times it still doesnt work and have restored my iphone

    it's all good, no need to apologize for your english. Now what you want to do is go to settings> General> make sure 3G is on, then go back to settings> turn airplane mode on for 2-3 seconds and turn it off again. This should make the 3G symbol show up. However, if that does not work; then just reset your iPhone by holding the top button and the home button until it turns off but keep holding it until the apple logo shows up then release the button. Hopes it helps
