Everytime I click on the down arrow on the firefox button firefox fills my monitor screen. How do I stop this as it did not happen in the past

Had to uninstall and reinstall firefox several times as something was trying to take it over. The only way I stopped it in the end was to go back to a restore point on my computer. Anyway, before I had this problem I had firefox leave a border down the right side of my screen. Now it is okay when I start firefox, border in place, but as soon as I click the down arrow on the firefox button for anything firefox covers the whole screen. How can I stop this?

You can check for problems with the localstore.rdf file.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Corrupt_localstore.rdf
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

Try going to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and uncheck the email address(es) shown under "You can be reached by iMessage at". If that doesn't work, you'll have to tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different Apple ID for iMessage.

When I open a pdf file, after a few seconds, it hides the toolbar and I don't know how to get it back. I use multiple monitors and, without being able to grab the toolbar, I am unable to move the pdf file to a different monitor. How do I stop this?

Does Firefox switch to full screen if you press F11 ?
You can also try the F10 key to see if that brings up the menu bar.

After updating tot the newest version of firefox, the browser asks me everytime if I want it to remember my passwords. I don't want that. How do I stop this?

In the left corner of the browser I see a key now and every time I log in to a site or e-mail a pop-up shows up, asking me if i want to remember the password. I don't want the browser to do this. It's quite annoying. How do I turn this feature permanently off.

Go to Options -> Security, and uncheck the "Remember Passwords for Sites" Checkbox.

Most websites, including Mozilla, now have a locked banner at the top of the screen that blocks off some, or much more of my laptop screen, how can I stop this

Apparently we have forgotten how to scroll up to find the search field, donate button, etc. and website "designers" now include a locked banner at the top of your screen that you cannot close but remains in place as you scroll through what remains of the visible field to view half pictures, partial paragraphs, etc. Some of these are enormous, most of a middle size and some are thinner. None are necessary but fit neatly under the heading, "Just because you can does not mean you should." which programmers seem to disregard at will. Is there some way for me to maintain (re-establish) my possession of my desktop when visiting sites? These stupid and obstructive are unneeded and Mozilla ought to be ashamed that I am looking at "Mozilla support" at the upper left of my desktop, yes, I know I am in Mozilla support and haven't forgotten it since I got here, and "ÏNBOX" "Search Mozilla Support" at the upper right of my desktop. I haven't forgotten how to scroll up if I needed to search support, either...

We are simultaneously getting bigger and bigger monitors and smaller and smaller handhelds, so it's a challenge to serve the right page for your display. But I digress...
Those fixed bars are created using the style rule <code>position:fixed</code>. In some cases, the rule is added dynamically when you scroll the page, while in other cases, it is fixed full-time. Because you may actually want some elements to be fixed, it is difficult to create a fix-all solution that will work well for all sites.
For ad hoc page hacking, you could try this extension that allows removal of items using the right-click context menu:
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/nuke-anything-enhanced/
Sometimes it might take two clicks to find the outermost element (otherwise, you might leave a blank area instead of getting rid of the whole thing.
Some users use the Adblock Plus extension to hide page elements they don't want to see; I don't have any experience with that.
If there are particular sites you need help with, we might be able to create a custom style rule for you to override the way the page behaves. The best approach depends on exactly how it works.

Every time I press the home button a new tab opens. How do I stop this?

When I push the home button to go to my home page, the firefox loads my home page but also opens a new tab with the firefox home page with the google search bar.
How do I stop the new tab from opening. I can't find it in the options page.

Tools>Tab Utilities Options... Then un-check Home under the Open new tabs group

Some webpages resize the window but when the window opens in a new tab, the entire firefox browser is resized. How do I stop this from happening?

This usually happens when the window is resized in order to fit the smaller content/intention for a webpage.
I would like Firefox to ignore the window resizing (down sizing) commands when opening a window in a new tab and just display the window in full size.

Go into ''Tools > Options > Content'' and next to where it says ''Enable JavaScript'', click ''Advanced...''' and then untick ''Move or resize existing windows''.
This is the only way to do it. I believe there is a bug filed to prevent all sites (by default) from resizing the window if there are more tabs open, but I don't think it has been fixed.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Go to Settings>iTunes and App Stores and sifnout and sign back in
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up

My iPhone wont let me look at my messages everytime I click on the icon it just freezes there,and then aborts its self out. My friend sent me all these pictures and I think that's why? How do I fix it? HELP!

My iPhone wont let me open my text messages. Everytime I click on the icon it freezes there for a minute and then aborts itself. My friend sent me a whole bunch of pictures at once and I believe that's why. I need a solution! HELP! Please.

First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

And what does the bluescreen denote as the "fault module"? What do all those cute numbers say? check your Windows Event Viewer for the exact cause.
