FF beta 9 on Presario; scrolling screen - flashing black line at botton; Very annoying! Occurs with mouse-wheel OR down-arror scrolling

Unlike 3.x , and i *believe* your beta 8 , scrolling the screen causes the most-bottom screen line (one text line in width, from left edge to right edge of FF beta 9's screen) to rapidly flash. Its color is black and is extremely annoying.
scrolling with Logiteck wireless mousewheel OR via keyboard arrows causes same serious problem.

Well, look at that.  I actually had this problem before--and SOLVED it before!  [facepalm]  I'd forgotten all about it....

  • From time to time screen flashes black when scrolling

    Hi all!
    My system: Fennec 32.0, Teclast x98 3g, Intel z3735D, Android 4.2.2
    From time to time I observe screen flashing black when scrolling any page. I could not find consistent pattern, but maybe it happens when I have 3 or more opened tabs.
    Could you help me to solve this issue?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi IGOR,
    There are alot of default features for scrolling in Firefox for android, but they are under the hood of the application in the about:config page.
    Does this happen on pages with Flash player embedded in them?
    The more current reasons why Flash may not work is if the phone/tablet has a Intel cpu and not a ARMv7 or v6 type of cpu that old Flash 11.1 for Android supports.. And if you have Android 4.1 or newer you need Firefox 27.0 and newer.
    However if it is not, please open a bug with the device model and about:buildconfig page information as well as an example website where this happens all the time. Further investigation can be done with that information. :-)

  • My ipod nano 5th gen  wont play movies or videos on my ipod but plays them on itunes when i click on it the screen flashes black i have tried taking the movie off my ipod and putting it back on but it still won't work what should i do?

    My ipod nano 5th gen. won't play movies or tv shows but it plays them on itunes.  When I click  on it the screen flashes black. I have tried taking the videos off my ipod and then putting them back on but it still won't work. what should i do?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • GE70-0ND Screen flashing black and gray

    Hey,
    I bought a MSI GE70-0ND laptop almost 1 year ago. I have not had any problems with it until now.
    I run Windows 8 on it.
    Today when I logged in on my laptop the screen just immediately went black. Now it is flashing black and gray. When I move the mouse you can see the cursor moving on the screen. The special buttons such as fan boost works.
    I tried connecting my laptop to another screen with a HDMI cable. The other screen showed the same flashing screen..
    My laptop forced me to upgrade and install something yesterday. I think it was a windows update but I to be honest, don't know. I suspect that that update is causing this..
    Any help will be appreciated. If you want additional information that I failed to provide above, let me know!
    Thanks,
    msikiuru

    What happens if you do a CTRL+ALT+DELETE? Can you see the screen just fine?
    Taking a video and posting it to youtube might also be very helpful, as this is the first time I've ever heard of this issue.
    Hi, thanks for answering.
    The problem fixed itself after a while. I have no idea about why it did.
    CTRL+ALT+DEL did absolutely nothing.

  • Screen flashing black

    My ipad with retina display has been acting up. The screen flashes black in all applications. Then the screen will turn off and I have to hit the power button several times before the screen will turn back on. What is wrong? What should I do?

    Hello there, AlysonLB.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers some practical troubleshooting steps that are applicable to your iPad:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
    Particularly:
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • Screen flashes black while playing games

    When I play games. The screen flashes black for a few seconds and then comes back and does it again?

    After reading this one sentence problem description it is not easy to say much about your problem.
    Maybe you should tell us something about your machine, preinstalled OS, display driver that you use and of course be a bit more detailed about this issue.

  • IMac screen flashes black and white when returning to top sites or screen saver

    iMac screen flash black and white when returning to top sites or before sleep...any ideas why?

    Howdy OatsaMae,
    It sounds like your screen is flashing unexpectedly on you for some reason. I would recommend this section from the following article to help you get that resolved, named:
    Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays
    Reset the system
    You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC. 
    Reset the resolution
    Start by resetting the Mac's parameter RAM. If the display does not come up, was previously set to an unsupported resolution, and still results in no video:
    Start up in Safe Mode.
    From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
    Choose Displays from the View menu to open the preferences pane.
    Select any resolution and refresh rate that your display supports.
    Restart your computer.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • Cant scroll horizontally with mouse wheel in FF

    I cant scroll horizontally in FF unter XP+SP3 by pressing the mouse wheel sideways. This is the same in FF 3.6 and 4.0 beta, while in IE 6.0 and in other MS programs (Explorer, Word, ...) it works fine. I am having this problem with 2 different mice: Fujitsu 400NB and easytouch ET-9600. I cant find newer drivers for them than what I have installed from the CDs. Here some settings from my FF: mousewheel.horizscroll.withnokey.action;0 mousewheel.horizscroll.withnokey.numlines;1 mousewheel.horizscroll.withnokey.sysnumlines;true. Some time ago I played around with them but that didn't help. What else can I do to get FF scrolling horizontally?

  • Horizontal scrolling with mouse wheel?

    I have built a website for a client that scrolls only horizontally. Is it possible to scroll with the mouse wheel horizontally?
    Is there certain HTML I need to add?

    Hi,
    There is no out of the box solution to force horizontal scrolling with mouse wheel. However, you can add your own code to your Muse site after exporting it. These docs should be helpful :

  • Why am I unable to scroll through bookmarks with mouse wheel anymore?

    Used to be able to scroll through bookmarks with mouse wheel, now I am unable to. I have tried reinstalling firefox and disabling all addons but same problem. Please help!

    Hello,
    Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
    You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
    Then perform these steps:
    *Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
    *In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
    *In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
    *Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
    Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
    * [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
    * [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • Creeking Noise: When I press lightly on the center left side of my screen I hear I slight creeking noise it occurs with case off as well

    Creeking Noise: When I press lightly on the center left side of my screen I hear I slight creeking noise it occurs with case off as well.  I believe it is coming from the screen.

    No one here can say for sure what Apple will do. You need to make an appointment at the Genius Bar to have the device looked at, and Apple makes the final determination. If they find a problem with the device, they can replace it.

  • Screen flashing black constantly (HP Envy dv7)

    Ever since about a month ago, my notebook has been going insane. The screen flashes completely black for about a second every three seconds or so, and doesn't stop. It does this ALL the time. I've updated my graphics card, the NVIDIA and intel part, even reset the whole computer. Can anyone help? This makes the notebook basically unusable.  

    Hello @Ghstlghts 
    As T4M has mentioned your issue is hardware related.
    I would recommend contacting support for repair/replacement options.

  • Screen flashing/black screen for 1-2 seconds - 7850 power edition 2gb/OC

    I recently bought the MSI R7850 Power Edition 2GD5/OC. I have installed amd catalyst 12.10. I have no issues while playing games...the only game i have played since i bought the card is prototype 2 (all settings set to high). The problem is while browsing or when not playing my screen flashes (just once - screen becomes black) for about 1-2 seconds. This does not happen regularly, but quite a few times.. i have uninstalled and re-installed the same catalyst version twice (downloaded from different sources - one from msi and the other from amd). The problem still persists.

  • Screen flashing black only when viewing .pdf or .doc

    I installed OpenOffice about a month ago. Shortly thereafter, my screen began flashing black whenever (and only when) I opened a document or pdf.
    I installed OpenOffice and installed Microsoft Word. No help. I uninstalled Adobe Reader and reinstalled it. Still same problem. I called Dell computers. They had me do a System Restore.
    No help. For some reason, they had me log in as an administrator. No help. The screen only flashes when a .doc or .pdf is open. It's a software, not hardware problem. Please help.

    Assuming that you are on Windows, it could be a problem with your graphics driver.  What is your display adapter, device driver version & date?  See http://forums.adobe.com/thread/945765
