Facebook apps appear wrong in Firefox

When using some facebook FLASH applications with the flash player installed in Firefox, the graphics look wrong. The best way I can describe it is that it appears that the app is having too large a size within its area. This results in that buttons and text cannot be read/accessed at the edges of the application.
The interesting part is that in Internet Explorer everything looks fine.
Another interesting part is that it used to work fine in Firefox as well, but then an update changed that - I think.
Some applications still appear to work OK. I am still able to see the animations on adobe.com that confirms that the flash player has been correctly installed.
My system is windows 7.
Hope someone is able to help me out. I would like to use my browsers for different tasks - for security reasons, so not being able to access some of these facebook apps with firefox is frustrating

  • Why isn't the Facebook app appearing in my Location Services

    I am an iPhone 4 user with the most recent iOS update. I frequently use the Facebook application. As of recently I am unable to upload new photos. The status bar reads complete, however, nothing happens. I was told to check my Location Services to verify I had it turned on for the FB app, however, upon doing this I realized the application no longer even shows up as an option within the Location Services. I'm guessing this to be part of the issue, however, I have zero clue as to why it no longer shows up period vs just having it accidentally switched off. Anyone have knowledge on how to fix this by chance?

    delete the facebook app,from your phone,and then re-install it from the app store,try that,might work.it did for me.

  • My location services is already on as well as with my facebook apps, but still i am unable to check in. what's wrong? even with my maps, it always say location unavailable. help please.

    - The iPod uses the location of a nerby or connected router to determine it location based on a database of routers and their location. It appears that the routers near y are not in Appl'es database.  As of yet, nobody here seems to know how to get routers added to the database.
    - If you go to Strtbucks. McDonalds or another networks does the location show in the Maps app?

  • Facebook Apps do not display properly in Firefox

    Certain Facebook apps don't properly display in Firefox.
    Some forms or articles (content) are cut off and don't diplay all fields or buttons or text,
    not allowing completion and submission of forms or reading all of text.
    Mac OS X 10.6.8
    Firefox 8.0
    These same Facebook pages display properly in Safari 5.1.1

    That content is in a not scrollable iframe.<br />
    The height of that frame is probably set via JavaScript to the correct height after that iframe has loaded and that didn't seem to have happened in your case and you only get the default height of about 600px.<br />
    You can try to right click in that frame: This Frame > Open Frame in New Tab
    Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.
    "Clear the Cache":
    * Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"
    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
    * Firefox > Preferences > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Posting YouTube videos on Facebook app (only link appears)

    When I try to post a YouTube video as a status update on Facebook, only the link appears but no preview shot of the video like when I post from a computer. Am I doing something wrong? I'm using an iPhone 3GS if that matters and the newest Facebook app.

    And you are getting the link from where exactly?
    Use the YouTube web app instead which includes an option to share a YouTube video via FaceBook which will include the preview.

  • Firefox stopped working for facebook apps. Will not allow apps (Farmville) etc to connect to facebook. Can't post to feed as the share interface won't connect.

    Facebook apps like Farmvill and snagbar etc. won't connect to facebook. Won't connect to be able to share or post to feeds from Farmville. Won't connect to snagbar. Have removed that for now. Stopped working last night and nothing had been changed. Have done everything suggested. Please help as I like Firefox more than other browsers. Everything is working ok on IE and Chrome.

    Hello,
    Some problems with Flash video playback can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings. (See [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems|this article]] for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).
    To disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player:
    #Go to this [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues Adobe Flash Player Help page].
    #Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
    #Click on '''Settings''' in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
    # Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel. <br/> <br/>[[Image:fpSettings1.PNG]] <br/>
    # Remove the check mark from '''Enable hardware acceleration'''.
    # Click '''Close''' to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
    # Restart Firefox.
    This [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player Help - Display Settings page] has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.
    Does this solve the problem? Let us know.

  • I downloaded the latest version of Firefox 13 and ALL webpages appear wrong

    I downloaded latest version of Firefox 13 after getting prompt that I didn't have latest version of Firefox. No webpage looks correct including this one. All webpages appear "plain". For example where I am typing in details right now there should be a box or something to show me where to put details - no box - just blank space. I use Google as my homepage. The Firefox logo used to be on the Google home page but it's missing. When I go to Google Mail there are no boxes to check off delete mail etc... when I go to the same pages using Internet Explorer all pages show correctly so something is wrong on Firefox. I uninstalled and re-installed Firefox without deleting my personal settings etc but this made no difference. If my only option is to delete all my info I will have to do that but have been on Firefox and really don't want to lose this info. I have checked all of the settings when I looked at not all webpages appear correctly in HELP and all setting are correct. What do I do? I don't want to go back to using IE but that is basically what I am having to do right now to function to do banking etc...

    Make sure that you allow pages to choose their colors and that you haven't enabled High Contrast in the Accessibility settings.
    *Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Colors : [X] "Allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above"

  • Facebook game apps showing wrong level on ipod

    i have noticed that one of my facebook game apps on my ipod is 2 levels behind
    bejeweled blitz on the ipod touch  is showing i now on level 72 but on facebook its self its showing iam about to go on to level 74 its since the ios 5.0.1 update of the ipod its went behind on the level it was at same level before up date. the game app is up to date.
    my coins on the ipod app are the same on the facebook game when i sign it to my facebook account on my computer its just the level thats behind

    No, the Facebook app does not appear to have its own "hide" feature. But if you hide something while in a full browser it's permanently GONE from your feed no matter what computer or device you use.
    My Facebook app's live feed is nearly a perfect mirror of what I see in the browser. I say nearly because the Facebook app's Live Feed on the Touch excludes new friend, new group, new fan, and event join notifications.

  • Hello. I have an Ipad 3 and I have installed the facebook app for ipad. Though I'm online, I appear offline to my friends. And, there is no chat bar when I log in via safari! Please Help!

    Hello. I have an Ipad 3 and I have installed the facebook app for ipad. Though I'm online, I appear offline to my friends. And, there is no chat bar when I log in via safari! Please Help!

    I believe the Facebook App requires (or at least it did in the past) the screen to be rotated to Landscape to access/enable chat functions/enable online status (I believe at the bottom-right of the screen). You need to set your online status to available (or whatever their terminology is) to have other people see your online status and availability to chat.

  • IOS6 Notifications in Facebook Messenger vs. Facebook.app

    I disabled push notificaitons inside the Facebook.app for messages, hoping that they would appear with a badge + alert on the Facebook Messenger.app instead.
    However, this is not the case...
    The badge is upadated for Facebook.app, and nothing happens if I don't have the Facebook Messenger.app window open.
    Is this normal? Or is there something wrong with iOS 6?
    Thank you in advance.

    I moved the enable notifications sliders of both apps off and then on, which seems to have fixed the problem.
    Weird.
    Definitely some sort of hang-up. Anyway, how come no one replied?

  • Facebook app on iPad doesn't open properly, it opens , then doesn't go to the loggin page, it just closes again without displaying anything

    Facebook app on iPad doesn't open properly, it opens , then doesn't go to the loggin page, it just closes again without displaying anything, how do I fix this ?

    This worked for me... A little time consuming but once you get rolling it goes GREAT... Thanks....
    I got my artwork and saved it to my Desktop
    Opened up Microsoft Paint and clicked on "File" and "Open" and found it to get it on the screen to resize it
    Clicked "resize" and a box for changing it opened up
    Checked the box "Pixels" and "Unchecked maintain aspect ratio"
    Set Horizontal for 640 and Vertical for 480
    Clicked on "OK" and went back to "File" and did a "Save As" and chose JPEG Picture
    It came up "File Already Existed" and clicked "OK" (really did not care about the original artwork I found because wrong size)
    Went to iTunes and on the movie right clicked on "Get Info", clicked on "Details", then "Artwork"
    Go to the little box on the top left that shows your old artwork and click on it to get the little blue border to appear around it and hit "Delete" to make it gone
    Click on "Add Artwork" and find it where you put the one from above on your Desktop and hit "Open" and OK and your new artwork is now there and all good.
    Sounds like a lot of steps to follow but after around 5 or so you will fly through it. This worked perfect on my iPhone 6 Plus and I have artwork on my Home Videos now.
