Firefox 15 acts as if a scroll lock is on. I just upgraded from 14 to 15.

I just upgraded from 14 to 15.
Using a EVO View tablet, the OS is current. The secured part of ETADirect.com Firefox 15 acts as if a scroll lock is on. When I zoom in, I am unable to move the page.The scroll bars both move,as if the page is moving.

For the first time sync I would recommend turning off icloud and doing a usb sync with itunes on a mac or pc, if possible. How robust is the wireless network you are using?

Open General preferences in System Preferences. You can set the desired scrollbar behavior there.

After 5 minutes of inactivity, Firefox 4 doesn't respond to my keystrokes. I just upgraded from 3.6 and I never had a problem before. What do I do?

Recently, upgraded from 3.6 to 4; now, Firefox stops responding to my keystrokes after 5 minutes of inactivity. The tab says connecting, but it doesn't register my keystrokes and nothing happens. I try to quit, but it doesn't quit, one screen disappears and another blank firefox page appears as if it's always been there. I then have to "force quit" and the program works again when I restart it. 5 minutes of inactivity and it starts all over again.

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode.

Firefox 10.0.1 will not open; I just upgraded from Firefox 9.0 to 10.0.1, the download completed, I clicked the Restart button; but absolutely nothing happens, no error message, nothing; I cannot start Firefox at all.

I have Windows XP SP3. Internet Explorer does work, which is how I'm able to tell you this. I have few plugins, and nothing unusual; in fact, before the popup window invited me to upgrade to Firefox 10.0.1, it first did a check for incompatible plugins and apparently found none.
Maybe I should do a System Restore and not try Firefox 10 again until the bugs are fixed.

You may need to delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing the latest Firefox. 
In case you still have problems after installing then check your security software.
A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

I just upgraded from Tiger to Leopard and had to download Firefox 9.0.1 again. There's no way to organize bookmarks like there was before. How do I delete a bookmark or change a bookmark's position in the queue?

I have an iMac.

"Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks" has been renamed to "Show All Bookmarks" in Firefox 4 and later.

Unexpected Scroll Lock issues

My T400 laptop will suddenly act as if the scroll lock is on.
I cannot turn off the scroll lock when I am using the laptop keyboard; in that situation I must log off and reboot.
I can stop the scroll lock when the laptop is docked and I am using an external keyboard. When I disengage the scroll lock, the scroll lock light turns on and operates backwards until the laptop is rebooted.
Please advise if this problem has a fix. (One of my co-workers also experienced this on the same model laptop.)

I got this problem on excel running under Parallels
Finally got it, I hope it helps:
Or, if you're working on Windows on a mac via bootcamp or virtualization software (Fusion or Parallels), you can either do:

Or go to:

I just upgraded to Firefox 4--what happened to the secure site icon at bottom of page?

I just upgraded from Firefox 3.6 to 4. There used to be a secure site icon at bottom right of secure pages. Clicking on the icon opened a window with all security info for that page. Now there is no icon. To get the same info I now have to click on the button in the address bar and then click again on the "more information" button. This is not intuitive and seems like a step backward. Is there a way to bring back the old secure site icon?

The padlock is no longer a part of Firefox; it can give users a false sense that a site is secure by not supplying all of the information about a site. Familiarize yourself with the '''''Site Identity Button''''' in Firefox:
*https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Site+Identity+Button

This is detailed: I lost my touch pad scroll ability on my desktop when I installed Firefox, I am having a terrible time trying to sync my new Android tablet to my desktop, my desktop Firefox is acting very strangly (I need help trying to use it)

My Vista Home Premium desktop has not used Firefox for a long time. I just loaded it as well as on my Honeycomb Android. The statement that I made pretty much says what my problem is. I can use both of them at the same time and use a router with the air Verizon card installed.

Firefox is acting slowly, ie, it is jerky and unresponsive as I use it.

When I use firefox, it acts in a slowed down manner. For example, pages take longer to load, it takes longer to respond to typing and mouse scrolling, etc.

I bought an iTouch to replace an ailing Palm Pilot. The iT has turned out to be an infinitely more complete and flexible PDA than the Palm. As others have pointed out, the iT's Internet functionality is limited because of the small screen, and watching movies is possible (good headphones help make the image seem larger) but, obviously not ideal. That said, the iT for me is a great tool for keeping tracking things, listening to music, tracking blood sugars (I'm diabetic), etc., and is portable.
I bought an iPad recently for its Internet capabilities, watching movies and as a reader. Larger is better for these functions AND the paper (NY Times) is a much improved experience over the Kindle (yes, I have a Kindle as well). In addition, the controls for navigating, searching, summoning the dictionary, bookmarking and making notes are much less klunky than the Kindle's. The only advantage the Kindle has over the iPad as a reader is its weight and size (I read one-handed, standing up on the train to work in the morning). For a while, I hoped Apple would bring out a 7" version of the iPad, but having lived with the iPad for about a week, I would miss the 9" screen.
For me, there is little overlap between the iTouch and the iPad.

I just upgraded to Firefox 5.0.1 and since the "lock" icon never appears when accessing secure websites, where should I look for it?

I just recently upgraded to Firefox 5.0.1 and now the "lock" icon doesn't appear anywhere (I can find) when accessing secure websites. I haven't seen it once. It used to appear in the lower right corner of the screen. I also have Norton Internet Security.

Padlock is no longer part of Firefox; it was removed beginning in Firefox 4. The padlock shows that there is a secure connection but does not supply additional information. You could have made a typographical error and still have been connected to a secure connection. The padlock was replaced in Firefox 3 with the Site Identity Button. Familiarize yourself with the Site Identity Button at the left end of the Location Bar:

The scroll function on my mousepad is disabled when viewing a pdf file in firefox version 5.0. The scroll works on the pdf, but not on the other tabs. When the pdf is closed, the scroll function returns to normal. Any ideas?!

Hey thanx for the help, it worked like a charm.
I think firefox changed the application lay out, as I used to be able to choose my PDF opener from the list at " Adobe Acrobat Forms Document' where I could choose Nitro-PDF reader, but it has now moved all the way to the bottom like you suggested to the obvious place of "Portable Document Format" section.
If someone didn't tell me , I wouldn't have scrolled all the way down to be able to find it... it really should be with all its cousins up the top...
Cheers again..

Can't turn off scroll lock Mac Book Pro Excel

Suddenly cannot move through cells or enter data in Excel for MAC. Have read all of the discussions on this topic - shift+fn+f12 don't work or any of the other suggested combinations, I have no F14 key or external keyboard, set up keyboard preferences to run fn keys, and there is no scroll lock or keyboard icon in the excel window - nothing works. I somehow turned this on, probably via a keystroke, so I must be able to turn it off - how? I appreciate your help - thank you!

Problem solved. When naming the droplet in the where to save dialog, make you you put a .app at the end of it.
Now works perfect.
