Firefox-3.0.1-2 child windows not working [SOLVED]

Hi everyone!
After last upgrade to firefox-3.0.1-2 every time i tried to open a child window (i.e clicking on Edit/Preferences or Help/About) the new window opens minimized and with no content.
Is anybody experiencing the same problem?

It is working fine here too. Are you sure you don't have any firefox or other xulrunner applications still running that you did not restart after the upgrade?

  • FireFox 3.6.9 Add-ons window not working, add-ons not loading

    After upgrade add-ons do not load.
    In Add-ons window, no data; all add-ons disappeared;.
    Also clicking < Browse all Add-ons > produces nothing, does not link to site.
    Navigate toa site to download an add-on: Add-ons window appears but no data or appearance of files or anything. So< Install> button therefore does nothing.

    You can delete the files extensions.* (extensions.rdf, extensions.cache, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox [[Profiles|profile folder]] to reset the extensions registry. New files will be created when required.
    See "Corrupt extension files": http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
    If you see disabled extensions that are not compatible on the next start in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the "Find Updates" button to do a compatibility check.

    Well I found nothing wrong in your post. So why even make a statement like the quote I included?
    Once more I am a retired government employee. So I have the time to post. Or has my rights been taken away to voice an opinion?
    Your posts was great you were not whining about your rights to file complaints to the FCC or FTC etc. One of the best I have read.
    And I am not trying to sway you from your phone choice. If you looked at my avitar it shows apple iphones. But I use and have used androids and not Windows phones.
    However your numbers of windows phone users all leaving over the issue is miniscule in the number of users of Android and iOS devices.
    I have written many times I wish all the devices get updated like iOS devices do. But at present that is not happening
    No bashing, no adversarial post just a little common sense is all I use.
    And again your post was great.
    Good Luck

  • When I navigate web with Firefox my Thinkpad trackpoint center button is not working. With other web browsers it works well. Where is the problem in firefox, how to enable TrackPoint center button?

    When I navigate web with Firefox my Thinkpad trackpoint center button is not working. With other web browsers it works well. Where is the problem in firefox, how to enable TrackPoint center button?

    I have exactly the same settings in Options (in both computers)
    for history, these 2 add-ons and all other stuff in Options. The only difference is that on 1 pc sessions can be saved and closed tabs can be reopened, on other main pc they stopped to work. + no any other add-on that does similar things works on this pc.
    It is also interesting that I can reopen closed visited sites from History Panel, but not by pressing the Button. For now I only manually bookmark links to a temporary folder.
    Recently (some 2 month ago) I pressed x and Firefox closed all tabs without saving them without displaying save & quit pop up.
    so I changed 4 settings in about.config
    browser.tabs.warn on close true
    browser.warn on quit true
    browser.warn on restart true
    browser.show.quit warning true
    but the problem with sessions appeared only 1 week ago.
    So I guess the problem is not with the History settings or other settings. Seems that something responsible for button or for storing info about tabs/sessions got corrupted. :(

  • Using XP Professional SP 3 with latestest version of Firefox, the US Airways web site will not work properly. I can still make it work with MS IE

    I am using XP Professional SP 3 with newest version of Firefox, the US Airways web site does not work. I can make the site work with MS Internet Exp. What do I need to change to make Firefox work?

    Can you clarify in which way the site isn't working?
    Can you attach a screenshot?
    *http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screenshot
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/how-do-i-create-screenshot-my-problem
    Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot.
    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
    If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

  • New Browser Window not working on My Mac Intel pro

    I have set a behavior in Dreamweaver CS3 to open a new
    browser window to a set size and to only show scroll bars if
    needed. I have left all other attributes unchecked. This is not
    working for me. Can you tell me how to make a new browser window to
    my settings using the behaviors in Dreamweaver CS3? I do all the
    steps right. what do I do when I follow all the steps for setting
    up a new browser window correctly and it doesn't work!? The new
    browser window never pops up even when i use an image map. The
    Behavior is not working correctly and I even re-installed
    Dreamweaver CS3. I am on an intel based mac pro. Running Firefox
    version 3 and Safari 3.1.2 on Leopard. I have done this several
    times before and it has worked. but that was before Leopard. Here
    is my code:
    <area shape="rect" coords="4,3,78,77" href="#"
    onClick="MM_openBrWindow('images/02.jpg','','width=378,height=504')">
    The only way I can get it to halfway work is add it into the
    link area
    on the properties panel. The window will then open but not to
    the
    specified size.?
    please advise as this is taking a long time to figure out!?

    This is an unusual way to go about doing this. Typically you
    simply put
    the thumbnails up on the page rather than combining them into
    a collage
    and then adding imagemaps to that.
    Nevertheless, it can be done.
    You have code like this:
    <area shape="rect" coords="0,0,80,80" href="images/12.jpg"
    target="_blank"
    onClick="MM_openBrWindow('images/12.jpg','','width=378,height=504')">
    Try adding
    ;return false
    to each like this:
    <area shape="rect" coords="0,0,80,80" href="images/12.jpg"
    target="_blank"
    onClick="MM_openBrWindow('images/12.jpg','','width=378,height=504');return
    false">

    Every time Firefox opened

    Hello.
    Although possibly not related to your problem, I will remind you that the version of Firefox you are using at the moment has been discontinued and is no longer supported. Furthermore, it has known bugs and security problems. I urge you to update to the latest version of Firefox, for maximum stability, performance, security and usability. You can get it for free, as always, at [http://www.getfirefox.com getfirefox.com].
    As for your problem, 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.

  • I installed Firefox 4 and it flat out is not working. What should I do?

    I installed FF4 and it does not work. I can see the search window and the firefox symbol, and I can type in entries, but when I press the enter key or hit the search arrow, there is no reaction or response. The screen remains as is.

    I would go to Control Panel, add/remove programs and uninstall all of it if it asks, then restart your computer and reinstall it again to see if that helps. You may have had a bad install.

  • Firefox 34 unstable. Plugins blocked, Flash not working, cannot update Flash. Cannot update FLASH, as Adobe not offering update.

    Repeated crashes with latest Firefox Version 34, running on Win XP SP3. Older Firefox version worked flawlessly. Update was a bad idea, as "security" fixes now block Flash from working. Attempt to update via Adobe cause further problems. Repeated crashes of internal program "plugin-container.exe". Poor product now, fails to provide the basic functionality - ie. viewing Flash video - that most web-brower users require. This solution was "solved" and worked fine, but stupid decisions appear to have been taken to block Flash, rather than fix the security vulnerabilites. Can't the leaky Adobe code just be "sandboxed" so code execution outside of a defined memory area is made impossible? About 1 billion global users rely on Flash, as most
    video delivery websites use it. Just "blocking" the plugin is an arrogant goof's solution to the security problem.
    But Adobe seems to have become obnoxious about not allowing or offering upgrades or fixes of Flash.
    Recommended solution seems to be to download and install Dolphin browser, which is built to at least include Flash support internally.
    Question: <nowiki>**********</nowiki>
    Is there a recommended way to get the Flash plugin installed and working correctly in a recent version of Firefox???
    Step by step instructions should be provided.
    <nowiki>********************</nowiki>
    It is almost 2015, and software development seems to be going retrograde, with "enhancements" simply crashing existing systems, and causing more problems than are solved. No wonder everyone is just disabling upgrades once they get a working
    system. I deeply regret upgrading to Firefox Ver. 34, as it does not run Flash video correctly now.

    *** SOLVED *** !!!
    I was having strange problems re. Youtube+Flash website.
    Turned out to be some hard-coded ip-redirection in my "hosts" file.
    I found it by searching and reading all the "youtube" related Mozilla FIrefox support forums. Thanx for this forum, guys. It is a good resource. And I apologize for my cranky, petulant initial comment. It was inappropriate. The error was mine completely.
    Problem was an old hard-coded fix that I put into my HOSTS file, on my Windows XP, SP3 machine. Specifically, I had experienced hang issues with a site called "i.ytimg.com", which I believe is the static cache for Google/Youtube stuff. I tracked this error down to failures of security certificates, but confirmed my security cert store was isometric between my machine cluster (they were all the damn same!)
    So, I had put two lines in the HOSTS file, to hard-code an IP address so that Google-youtube pages would not hang up waiting for "i.ytimg.com"
    Well, of course, Google/Youtube is now using different locations, or akami servers or some damn thing...
    The fix just involved removing these two hard-coded lines from my HOSTS file. I just commented the old fix out, and now everything works.
    <pre>
    # --- two lines added to fix i.ytimg.com hang problem
    # 74.125.162.39 static.cache.l.google.com s.ytimg.com
    # 74.125.162.39 static.cache.l.google.com i.ytimg.com
    </pre>
    (The # symbol is used to make a comment in hosts file... )
    On Windows XP, XP3, the "hosts" file is typically located in:
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
    If you are having goofy problems with some youtube/google webpages
    not rendering, or generating SSL (bad_certificate) errors, check your
    "hosts" file, and ensure no ip redirection has been slotted in there
    from a while back.
    Hope this helps others...

  • Trust ALL root Certifications in Windows not working for non-Admins on Terminal Server

    I have been trying to setup a verification process that will allow us to us Active Directory Certifications to verify signatures. I have finally found the setting to use the Windows Store after not getting Adobe to query our Certificate Authority. It works great on our local desktop where users have Admin access, but when users do it on our Terminal Server it does not allow it. I thought the issue was access to a configuration file in the Adobe directory, but I found the setting in the Registry set correctly. But does not work correctly. One additional note is I had noticed that after I enabled it on a Non-Admin, is Adobe would say it crashed after I shut it down.
    My question is what type of privilege do you need, or maybe Adobe need to access the Windows Cert Store from a Terminal Server with a non-Admin because it is not validating after confirming the Setting is enabled.
    Thanks,
    Donavan  

    hello, since version 26 firefox is able to auto-update on windows even for non-admin users (when the mozilla maintenance service is getting installed in the original configuration): http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/26.0/releasenotes/#whatsnew
    those would be the auto-updates provided by mozilla directly - so i'm not sure if this is something that would fit in your environment. installing the .exe file of a new version (available at [https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/]) on top of an older version will also update the program.

  • Back button in new window not working

    When opening a new window and navigating to further pages the back button is still grey and does not work.
    When opening a new tab in the same window and navigating to further pages it works correctly.
    Therefore the problem is only when opening a new page.
    This is different to problems other people are having on this forum as they have problems on all tabs/pages.
    Mac OSX 10.4.11
    Firefox version 3.6.17

    Thanks cor-el for the reply. Your reference to Add-on was very helpful.
    It was the add-on called Image Tweak that was causing the problem.
    Just as a side point and this is aimed at Firefox, as usual the instructions within the help section of Firefox are for PCs and not Macs. The basic instruction for Safe Mode does not seem to apply to Macs even the 'Hold down shift key' instruction.
    Putting in 'Start with Safe Mode Mac' in the search facility comes up with 294 results - none about starting in safe mode.
    Thanks again cor-el.

  • OBIEE 11g - Navigation in Parent Child Hiearchy not working

    Hi All,
    I have a employee parent child hierarchy and I want to show revenue for each employee in the report. I have modeled my revenue as a measure like case 4 shown in the following link
    http://www.rittmanmead.com/2010/11/oracle-bi-ee-11g-parent-child-hierarchies-multiple-modeling-methods/
    So for example this is my report ,
    --David (30)
    ---Sandra (15)
    -----Joe (10)
    Joe'e revenue is 10, Sandra's is 5 (showing her 5 Joe's revenue) and David's is 5 (showing his 5 Sandra's revenue)
    Issue :
    Now what I want is to provide action link on the revenue column so that when user would click on revenue for any employee it would direct them to a detail report showing the bifurcation.
    For ex, I want that when user click on 15 which is Sandra's revenue, he would be redirected to a detailed report for Sandra and similary for Joe and David
    MY ISSUE IS that the navigation is NOT working for sandra and Joe. It is only working for David (who is the ancestor of sandra and Joe). When I click on 15 to see sandra's detail report, it doesn't do anything and in the bottom left corner of the browser status bar below I see an ERROR saying
    (same for Joe but David work's fine)
    Message: 'getLevelInfo(...)' is null or not an object
    Line: 1
    Char: 11142
    Code: 0
    URI: http://localhost:7001/analytics/res/b_mozilla/answers/selectionsmodel.js
    Why is that happening? Is that because I have modeled the revenue as an measure and not attribute. Is navigation not possible in this case?
    Anybody has any solution or workaround for this, it will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Ronny

    Ok, so let me explain this in detail and give the structure of my tables and the data,
    There are three tables.
    1.Parent Child relationship table - pctable
    2.Closure table which OBIEE creates through a script - reltable
    3.Fact table which contains the revenue - facttable
    This is the data
    pctable
    personid | managerid
    David | NULL
    Sandra| David
    Joe|Sandra
    reltable
    memberkey | ancestorkey |distance |is_leaf
    David|NULL|NULL|0
    David|David|0|0
    Sandra|Sandra|0|0
    Joe|Joe|0|0
    Sandra|David|1|0
    Joe|Sandra|1|1
    Joe|David|2|1
    facttable
    personid|revenue
    David|5
    Sandra|5
    Joe|10
    and my joins conditions are, I join pctable to reltable and then reltable is joined to facttable like this.
    pctable.personid = reltable.ancestorkey
    reltable.memberkey = facttable.personid
    and then in the report, when I pull up the pchierarchy build from pctable and revenue , I get as below and like I said, when I click on Sandra to see the revenue she contributes, I am not able to navigate. Can you let me know what modifications needs to be done?
    ---David(20)
    ----Sandra(15)
    ------Joe(10)
