Firefox 4 loops back a page when entering password on secure sites

When verifying credit card details on secure sites, eg Verified by Visa ( password needed to confirm valid credit card details with card issuer) Firefox goes back a page asking for details again, instead of confirming card and placing order. Have had to place several orders by phone, before I twigged it was new browser. Have reverted to 3.6.17 for time being

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:

Why doesn't firefox 19 alert when entering or leaving secure websites when this has been selected as true using about:config

Using previous version it always alerted when entering or leaving a secure website. After udating to 19.0 it stopped alerting. I checked the settings about:config and both entering and leaving secure sites were set as True. Tried disabling and then re-enabling but still no alerts.

hello pete, those warning messages were generally removed in firefox 19. for reference see [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=799009 bug #799009] (please don't post in bug reports).

Acrobat Pro XI scans both sides (blank backs of pages) when pre-configured to scan front side only

Acrobat Pro XI scans both sides (blank backs of pages) when pre-configured to scan front side only; using Brother MFC 9840CDW and Windows 8 (was not a problem with previous Acrobat version). Help, please?

Update: No solution has been discovered; and, I did check the Brother settings (since it allows two-sided printing) - nothing awry there. Acrobat behaves normally when scanning from the flatbed (as opposed to the doc feeder). Using Acrobat to delete every other page (blank ones) after scanning is not a viable option. Please, any thoughts on this issue?

The old Statusbar "lock" is gone, as is the Statusbar it was on. You can see the new lock when you click on the Site Identity button at secure websites.

When entering password only hear a ping no letters appear

when entering password at startup there is a "ping" sound but nothing is entered on the screen I have tried restarting the computer but it makes no difference.

My error on the number of Tiger disks; I meant Panther. I was (and am) using my G5 2.0 Intel for these posts since the G4 isn't working and I had Tiger on the brain.
The disks with the G4 (there are two) are 10.3.2. I have found the first disk (in the Tiger box with the Tiger DVD.)
I started up from original Panther CD (1 of 1) and ran Disk Utility. Repaired permissions. Repaired the HD. It produced six "Reserved fields in the catalog record have incorrect data", one "incorrect leaf record count" and "This volume needs to be repaired" which it did, telling me in a couple minutes that the volume had been repaired successfully.
I quit the CD, which gave me the option to restart. I did. All the problems still exist. Is a Restore and Archive of Tiger the only/best way?
This, by the way, has been a problem machine. See http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=2701051#2701051 The freezes and kernal panics referred to in that thread diminished for a while but returned and I've been living with them. They're also the reason I got this Intel G5.
Thanks for your help.

I receive Error code: ssl_error_unsafe_negotiation when I visit any secure site version 3.613

I receive Error code: ssl_error_unsafe_negotiation when I visit any secure site using version 3.613.
I can browse to all of these sites successfully using IE 8.0.6

See this link for information about 'Renegotiation' (CVE-2009-3555):
* http://wiki.mozilla.org/Security:Renegotiation
* https://wiki.mozilla.org/Security:Renegotiation#security.ssl.renego_unrestricted_hosts
You can look at the pref security.ssl.renego_unrestricted_hosts on the about:config page and add the sites that you want to allow to the string value. 
Separate multiple host names by a comma.
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. 
You can use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a pref more easily.

My firefox 'go back one page' when I move the cursor. Why?

I play a game in facebook. 'Starfleet Commander Extreme.'
After clicking on something, I move the cursor (On my laptop mouse pad)
This sometimes makes my forefox 'go back one page'.
Any clues?

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Double-click on a page causes Firefox to jump back a page instead of highlighting at the insertion point

I have a Logitech iFeel MouseMan. The side button is set up for double-click. Sometimes instead of highlighting at the cursor position the tab jumps back one page. (That is, it acts as if I had clicked the back button at the left of the address bar.) This anomalous behavior does not happen if I physically double-click with the mouse's left button. This anomaly happened about a year ago and a Google search turned up a Firefox configuration setting that fixed the problem. Now I can't find that setting and a Google search provides no answers. I solved the problem by resetting my computer to an earlier reset point, but that is an inelegant solution -- and it takes hours. (The problem is not happening now. I ask for the future.) I would prefer to make the problem go away by changing the appropriate Firefox setting. Logitech told me that the problem is not with the mouse nor its software, but with Firefox and that I should ask Firefox experts.

Thanks for your response.
I guess I didn't revert to as far back as the change I had made because when I follow your instructions, no entries are bold.
Or did you perhaps mean the next time the problem occurs I should look for a bold entry? And then change it back to what it was? (All that I recall from a year ago was that I changed one entry from ''true'' to ''false'', or vice versa.)

Why does Firefox re-jump to a page when it is finished loading or when automatically refreshing?

If I change tabs or windows within Firefox or switch from Firefox to another open programme running, and the browser page has not completely loaded (or sometimes refreshes due to automatic updating) what I see on the monitor is not the tab or window highlighted in the tab bar (or for that matter programme highlighted in the taskbar). Firefox just jumps back on its own accord and leaves me with often with a view that is conglomeration of the reloading page and the other programm I am working on.

Another user posted a screenshot of something like that earlier this afternoon, and I'm not sure what is causing that to happen. I suspect if may be caused by an extension that was recently updated, but no ideas about which one it may be. I just got back to my computer after be gone for the last five hours, so I don't if there has been any additional information in the other thread or not. This is about all I can figure to do right now until we have more information related to this new issue.
Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode?

The back button goes back 2 pages, when choosing a bookmark the item under it (on the desktop) is selected

After upgrading to 3.6.11 The back button sometimes goes back 2 pages, The Bookmarks window just flashes when trying to open it, when it does stays open if an item is selected that item is not opened, the item beneath it on say, my home page is opened. I saw there were some Google related problems in your trouble shooting section, I got rid of the Google stuff but the problem remains.

Your above posted system details show multiple Java Console extensions. 
You can uninstall (remove) the Java Console extensions, you do not need them to run Java applets.
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Java#Multiple_Java_Console_extensions
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes). 
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]] 
 
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears. 
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions. 
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

How do I stop Firefox from creating untitled web pages when I try to send email from a web page. The only way I have found is to turn the computor off and then reboot. I don't have this problem when using Internet Explorer

Every time I click on a web site that has an email option the browser starts making untitled web pages and never stops unless I turn the computer off. It is very frustrating to not be able to use an email option when offered by a web site. The only way I can send email messages on the Firefox browser is to go into my hotmail acct. and copy and paste the addresses. I don't have this problem when I use the Internet Explorer browser.

See [[Firefox keeps opening many tabs or windows]]

Why is there no option to go back multiple pages when browsing a website? it is annoying thet there is no option with the back/forward one page button.

When browsing a fashion or shopping website, you often look at an item, then browse the colour choices, you have to go back multiple pages, before you can look at the next item. Where has the back multiple pages arrow gone?

To go back (or forward) more than one page, click and hold the mouse button on the back (or forward) button for a few seconds and a list of recently visited sites will show. The down arrow that used to be next to the buttons to view the list was removed to add more space in the toolbar.

Sometimes, Firefox will go back one page on hitting a left or right arrow key. How do I stop this?

I have noticed that inadvertant hitting of the left or (more often) right arrow key will cause the browser to go back one page in that current tab's history.
== This happened ==
A few times a week
== I don't know - I just noticed that the most recent occurrance involved accidentally hitting the right arow key.

Firefox shows Errror Code "ssl_error_bad_mac_read" when trying to access Secure Sites

When I try to access secures sites (URLs with https) Firefox shows me the error code "ssl_error_bad_mac_read".
This problem '''only''' appears '''in Firefox not in Internet Explorer''' and it '''also''' appears when I use Firefox in '''Secure Mode'''.
The problem appeared this morning for the first time, until yesterday everything worked fine and I didn't install or update any new PlugIns, Addons, Firewalls or something like that.
I tried to make the SSL-Test from Boston University you propose on your help page and couldn't access that page either.
I use Firefox with the version 5.0 and would be glad to receive any hint to solve the problem.

Open Firefox -> go to Tools Menu -> Options -> Advanced -> Encryption
-> Protocols section -> Put Checkmarks on both options
-> Certificates section-> select Radio Button Option 2 -> Click OK.
