FF windows goes blank white and freezes if I click a link in another application when Print Preview is open in FF (Win 7 64-bit)

Possible bug: FF dumps my session if I try to open an external link without closing print preview view. I had left the Print Preview screen open in FF after printing a web page, and I clicked a web link in another application, which would have normally opened in a new tab in FF. However, only the Print Preview window was displayed and when I clicked "Close", the FF window when all white. Back/backspace wouldn't work and I had to close FF and start a new session. I tested this a few times and it happens every time. I didn't think to test whether this happens in Safe Mode.

  • When I close Yahoo Mail, Firefox goes blank white and I have to restart Firefox. Whats wrong?

    The screen goes blank when signing out of Yahoo Mail. There is no error message. This does not happen with Internet Explorer. Not much else to say.

    Hello James.
    You may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
    If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.

  • IMac goes blank screen and freezes

    Hi,
    I got 24" iMac running OS X 10.5 and Win 7. Last night I was running windows playing some game when screen gone totaly black for unknown reason and iMac froze.
    After that booting to OSX it caused grey screen just after a couple of seconds when the desktop has showed. Booting from recovery CD causes the same at the point when you see "Loading Apple" thingie.
    I did extended apple hardware test and it showed nothing.
    They only way for me to get online and post this message is getting Win7 into a safe mode or VGA mode without NVIDIA driver loaded. Btw when booting win7 normaly it goes black screen after the desktop loaded.
    My warranty period has expired month ago. And last time contacting support about the hard drive issue was a real trouble. Im in Ukraine, Odessa. And this guys are in Kyiv.
    So what should I do?

    update:
    OS X seems to be working in safe mode and, I got crash report after booting in normal

  • After several minutes, the solid blue bar at the very top goes light blue and 'freezes' until I click on the bar. Then it's restored. This is constant. How do I fix it?

    The dark blue bar will eventually go to a light blue, the mouse arrow disappears, and all is 'frozen' until I manually click on the blue bar. Then, it's back to normal and the bar turns dark blue. Many minutes elapse then it repeats over and over. What setting is there to fix this?

    Does this still happen if you start Firefox with '''[[Troubleshooting extensions and themes|extensions disabled]]'''?
    [http://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/gq288/double_window_does_anyone_else_have_that_problem/ This page] has a report from another user with the same problem, who says the problem went away after disabling extensions.

  • Can Firefox be configured to open most-recenlty-active Firefox window when you click a link in another application? Am using multiple profiles.

    I think this is really a feature request, but I didn't see a forum for that. I used to use firefox almost exclusively, but switched to chrome when I started freelancing for a couple of different companies -- the identities feature of chrome really helps me keep my sanity by having a unique identity for each company. However, an issue has recently developed with chrome that made me switch back to firefox. The profiles feature in firefox seems to have gotten a lot better since I made the first switch, and I'm pretty happy with how it works ... with one exception:
    With firefox, clicking on a link in a different application always opens in the default profile. With Chrome, it would always open in the browser window that was most recently active. This is a very intuitive behavior, as whatever I am doing in the other application (e.g. thunderbird, evernote, skype) is almost always related to whichever browser window I had opened last.
    Any chance of this getting implemented? Or maybe there's already a way to do this? I found the following related topics, but neither helped with this question:
    https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/981608?esab=a&as=aaq
    https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/983341?esab=a&as=aaq

    I just switched back to Fx from Chrome after using Chrome for about 2 years.
    I use two profiles with Chrome, one for work and another one is personal. They don't share anything which is exactly why I have two profiles and not just two windows. I found an extension for Fx to easily open two instances of Fx with different profiles but all links open in the same instance, which is not how it worked with Chrome.
    With Chrome, whichever window was active last is getting the link which makes it perfect for multi-desktop use (on Mac OS X). I'm quite upset and annoyed that Firefox cannot do that. Isn't there *some* way?

    Over the past week I have had a problem while watching movies online or playing games... The screen starts to pixelate then fades to white and freezes. At this point I can still hear whats going on but the screen is almost all white and frozen... Is anyone else having this problem or do you know what to do?

  • Properties Window goes blank!

    Hi,
    I am encountering this problem in Dashboards where in when I open a dashboard, and I select a component for the first time, I am able to view all of its properties within the properties window. However, the properties window goes blank for any subsequent component which I select, as shown in the screenshot below. Can someone please point out why I am facing this issue, and if I can do something to resolve it?
    For further reference, I am running Dashboards version 6.0.5.0, Build 14,0,6,1036 on Windows 8. Please do let me know if there are any further details which are required.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Yash,
    I have tried reinstalling Dashboards, but to no avail. Also, I running only one instance of Dashboards, with no Excel file opened either. The problem seems to persist. Can anyone else please throw some light on this issue?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Eshwar Prasanna
    EDIT: I find that clicking on the blank area will cause the properties to show up once again. Therefore the issue can be handled. However, this should not be cropping up in the first place. Is there any way to solve this? Or a way to raise this issue up with SAP so they might consider a solution?

    Mac with latest updates: installation window appears, shows message "Retrieving install" for 3 seconds then installation window goes blank. Why?

    Hold down the option key during start up - you will be given the choice of which partition to use (Macintosh HD or Windows). I am having the same problem - Windows 7 seems to have installed but it goes to a blank black screen and there is nothing to do but force a reboot. I too have an i3 iMac... Windows 7 32-bit from original disc.

    I wanted to restore my ipod touch 4G, but everytime it is restoring with the apple logo, the screen goes partially white and my itunes says "error 9"... what should i do?
    plz answer me~

    Error 9
    This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

  • [OSX.4,DW8] Document window goes blank!

    Hi,
    When I resize or click on the file transfer button, my
    working document window goes blank! I have to play with the sizing
    handle to get it to refresh to get it to render to the sceen again.
    Any clues?

    Yes. Not using the Start Screen will cause DW to always open
    with a blank
    file. It's up to you. I prefer the start screen.

    Hi,
    Acrobat xi - RE: Add sound icon- skin displayed is a 'blank white box' until it is clicked to activate it- can you lock skin to display before its activated so that in a print run the skin shows up (ie the controls-or any kind of greyed out rectangle, like video controls before 1st activation) and not the blank white box- if no, I guess I have to activate all sound icons before doing a print run?thanks)).

    Many of your points are totally legitimate.
    This one, however, is not:
    …To put it another way, the design of the site seems to be geared much more towards its regular users than those the site is supposedly trying to "help"…
    The design and management of the forums for more than five years have driven literally dozens of the most valuable contributors and "regulars" away from the forums—permanently.
    The only conclusion a prudent, reasonable person can draw from this state of affairs is that Adobe consciously and deliberately want to kill these forums by attrition—without a the PR hit they would otherwise take if they suddenly just shut them down.

  • I bought a new laptop and used Windows Easy Transfer cable and moved all files from one computer to another. I installed iTunes and found my iTunes music Library.  However, when I plug in my iPod it says it is already synced with another iTunes Library.

    I bought a new laptop and used Windows Easy Transfer cable and moved all files from one computer to another. I installed iTunes and found my iTunes music Library.  However, when I plug in my iPod it says it is already synced with another iTunes Library. 
    I don't see anything in Help that shows when you already have transfered all the files over.  Why would it want to erase and sync when I already have all the music folder copied over?  I didn't have an issue when I had another technician copy from one laptop to another.  Home sharing is also on but not being recognized.

    I suspect you only migrated the media folder instead of the complete working library. Either review the transfer process and copy over the entire iTunes folder from your old profile's music folder or see Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
