Firefox 5 and 6 are slightly blurry, relative to IE9 or various applications.

Images and text are very slightly blurry in our deployment of Firefox. We've been FF5, and are moving to 6 - but have not seen the issue resolved in 6. FF3.x is nice and crisp in its display of text and images - as is IE9, and various installed apps. We see this on variety of new computers, with updated graphics drivers and ClearType running.

try this next
1 - remove the effects on all the objects, add a new slide, copy over the objects onto the new slide then add the effects again
if this does not work
2 - delete the slide and re-create from start

  • [SOLVED] My firefox fonts are too blurry / smooth

    Hello, Im a mint user so far but I really want to move to Arch but my fight versus Fonts are not good:
    Fonts 3 - Me 1
    No luck
    I readed the wiki enough times but I'm not a font expert, but I tried a lot of stuff.
    So far:
    I installed win7 fonts from AUR, ttf-mac (for lucida grande), and obviously dejavu and liberation.
    The fonts are good, but I can't render them properly.
    This is my .fonts.conf:
    <?xml version='1.0'?>
    <!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM 'fonts.dtd'>
    <fontconfig>
    <match target="font">
    <edit mode="assign" name="rgba">
    <const>none</const>
    </edit>
    </match>
    <match target="font">
    <edit mode="assign" name="hinting">
    <bool>true</bool>
    </edit>
    </match>
    <match target="font">
    <edit mode="assign" name="hintstyle">
    <const>hintslight</const>
    </edit>
    </match>
    <match target="font">
    <edit mode="assign" name="antialias">
    <bool>true</bool>
    </edit>
    </match>
    </fontconfig>
    I have dualhead (24"+24" (but 16:10 / 16:9), 3840+1200) with twinview.
    I dont know what dpi I have ("xdpyinfo | grep dot" says 93x94 but.. I have two monitors and xorg treats it like a big one).
    About my fonts.conf, I tried the lcddefault (no changes), I can't use any rgba option (I got a weird double color / shadow behaviour).
    In short, that is the conf that have the best results.
    Problems: I saw that the fonts color are always slightly light and blurry.
    Example:
    Arch blurry (the color problem is not noticed with blue)
    http://i.imgur.com/XSNT4.png
    Ubuntu crisp:
    http://i.imgur.com/pnhWE.png
    I admit that are not that bad, but is there
    With bigger fonts, the problem is more noticiable but I have not found a clear example.
    I looked all mint configurations, tried to imitate it, but the fonts still renders different. (same .ttf)
    Ideas? Thanks.

    I changed the images for links
    And yes, near identical.
    I digged deeper. Without ".fonts.conf" and using gnome 3 with slight hint and antialiasing to "rgba", the result is good enough (I don't know where gnome-tweak-tool saves the config).
    Seems like gnome activates subpixel (rgb) and uses a lcddefault. I tried subpixel in the past but was kinda "missplaced" so the effect was really bad.
    So, activating rgb subpixel and using lcddefault, solves the problem, well, at least same result as ubuntu / mint
    So, I will mark this as solved, and I hope it helps who comes after

  • Why do PDF files on a URL not load in Firefox (and are black in Safari)

    Trying to open PDF information sheets from a UK govt. site, Firefox would not open anything; if it helps, Safari's window just went black, but Google and Camino both opened the files with no problems.
    How do I get Firefox to work as well?just recentlu

    I have had this problem in Firefox version 3. I updated to Firefox 4 and again I received a message that Adobe Acrobat could not be opened witthis browser.
    Howver, I went to "Opening PDF files in Firefox" in Firefox support.
    I followed the instructions under "Check Firefox settings". Iset the Action for Adobe

  • All images on all websites are slightly blurry

    I tried searching for help, and the only thing I saw was to try resetting the zoom (command+0 on Mac) but that didn't change anything. Please advise.

    Sorry, Firefox 4+ versions don't support PPC architecture.

  • Photoshop CS6 Help Required -  Whites are slightly cream

    This is the first time I have posted a question on this forum.  If I am in the wrong place please accept my apoligies. Thanks.
    I have a problem which I have spent days and days trying to solve but without success, I sincerely hope someone can help me.
    I am using Photoshop CS6 (Version 13.0.6 x64) on a 27”iMac running  OS X Mavericks (Version 10.9.1).  My printer is an Epson 3800  (Driver Version 9.17).  I am using Epson inks on Epson paper and my screen is correctly calibrated.
    I have had the printer for a number of years and its prints are normally excellent. However the following problem has recently occurred and I am not sure what has caused it; but when I print the whites are not pure and are slightly cream. 
    If I print letting ‘Photoshop Manages Colours’ (which I have always done) and using an original Epson profile for Semigloss paper I get this problem.  To be precise when I print a test Grey Scale my 5% and 0% (white end of spectrum) are both the same cream colour and the 100% and 95% (black end of spectrum are also the same shade of black).  The profile numbers on the original image on screen reads for the white end 242 and 255 (5% and 0%) and for the black end 0 and 12 (100% and 95%).  I have concluded that there is no problem with the image or my screen, as I have mentioned it is correctly calibrated and you can see the difference in all the tones from 100% to 0%.
    When I print letting ‘Printer Manages Colours’ though I do not get this problem at all, although obviously the colour balance is not excellent compared to using the proper paper profiles.  I have therefore concluded that there is no problem with my printer.  It must then be either a profile issue or a software issue.
    However I get exactly the same problem if I print on Epson Glossy paper using the appropriate original Epson profile and ‘Photoshop Manages Colours’.  I have therefore concluded that it is not a profile issue and it must be a Photoshop issue, unless all the Epson profiles are corrupted which I think is most unlikely.
    I appreciate that my logic may be completely wrong and that is why I am posting my plea for help.
    Somewhere deep in Photoshop there must be a way to solve this problem.  Can you offer any advice or assistance?

    Either you aren't selecting the correct profile for the paper and printer, or something is going wrong in the printer driver and it applies color corrections when it should not.
    Double check your choice of color profile - if that isn't it, then contact Epson and see if they have updates to fix their driver.

  • Firefox and Thunderbird are using a lot of memory and load pages very slowly!

    CPU levels are going through the roof when using Thunderbird and Firefox.
    Both programs are freshly installed on a new and also freshly installed version of windows 7!
    Loading of my pages is taking forever and most pages don't load at all.
    My email is [email protected]
    My notebook got so hot that it turned itself off!
    Memory is above 250 KB for firefox and Thunderbird above 150 kb!

    I do not have a ComObjects folder under C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files. That is not part of Firefox.
    wscript.exe is a utility included with Windows to run scripts at the system level. It generally is not used by major programs. If update.exe is starting up with Windows, you may be able to find the script that wscript.exe is running using [http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx Autoruns].
    It definitely sounds viral. I suggest deleting the update.exe file, although Windows might prevent you from doing that until you kill all related processes. And if you have a persistent infection, the file may be restored or re-downloaded.
    It might be easiest to seek assistance from a forum more dedicated to malware cleanups such as the following:

  • When using Firefox and Bing, auto search suggestions will not populate even though all options for it are enabled.

    If I try to perform a search using Firefox as my browser, and Bing as my search engine, auto suggestions will not populate. I can use other search engines with Firefox and they work, and I can use Bing in other browsers and it works.

    If you have security software (antivirus, firewall etc.) installed, you can try deleting all existing instances of Firefox and its related processes/files in all the different configuration modules/areas of the security software like process monitoring, sub/spawned process control, virtualization, HIPS etc., in addition to the security software's main configuration panel. Instead create new fully allowed/trusted rules for Firefox + its related processes in all the different modules/panels - a genuine/original Firefox installer as well as all the installed EXEs (Application) and DLLs (Application extension) are digitally signed by Mozilla Corporation (right-click > Properties > Digital Signatures). Even otherwise, some security software may also ask again when Firefox and/or its sub processes are started, and you may be able to allow/trust at that time. Please see [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Firewalls this].
    [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firewalls AV/Firewalls Configuration]
    If security software issues can be ruled out, you can also reset Firefox and check.
    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.

  • Web Fonts (WOFF) are only blurry in Firefox v32.0 (Current) with ClearType Disabled

    I see this question has been asked in different ways but perhaps not in such a direct manner. I'm on a fresh load of Windows 8.1 with a default setting of ClearType Disabled. Web Fonts render perfectly fine in all browsers except for Firefox. In Firefox, they appear blurred or pixelated. When I enable ClearType they suddenly are fine in Firefox. Oddly if I then disable ClearType and logout and then login, they are still fine. I see that Google Chrome previously had a similar issue but understand they fixed the issue in Chrome. Is this an issue that needs to be addressed by Firefox? Are antialias properties going to be advanced in CSS to possibly force fonts to render properly? (Fonts are stored locally on the same domain as the website.)

    Hi,
    I understand that you are asking about why when ClearType is disabled Firefox has blurry font.
    If you take a look at the about:config entries on the page and search for cleartype, you will see that gfx font rendering is set to false. However for downloadable fonts it is true. It may be that you were on a site that had a downloadable font, or hosted on the web server host. There is also a force use for certain type in gdi classing family and max size. These can be changed by the user, however those are the default values currently.
    You can leave feedback for the developers about this in input.mozilla.org as well.

  • My Muse page looks different on Firefox and Chrome - both are the latest versions

    On Firefox, my pre-loader wants to load each time it encounters an Edge Animate on my scroll page. Page anchors are slightly changed in Firefox and this messes up my scroll, opacity and Ege Animate triggers.
    I'm not sure if this is relevant but I also receive this error message in my browser immediately after exporting to HTML - http://www.broadcastgems.com/mediastreamer5/Muse_js_Error.jpg
    Here's my Muse Webpage - http://www.broadcastgems.com/MoGraphIntensity_ShapesText_PreLoad/
    Lastly, I can't get my Form on the said page to work - on both Chrome and FIrefox. I can fill in the boxes but clicking 'Send' doesn't seem to do anything. Also, the text column for "Message" is ridiculously narrow - only 2-3 words long and I can't seem to change this. Visually it looks long but once I start typing it wordwraps after only 2-3 words. I'm using the built-in Form widget that comes with Muse.BTW, the form is right at the bottom of the page/URL I provided in the previous para - you can get there via the menu button, Inquiry.
    Thanks for any assistance
    - Roland

    Hi Aish, here's the screen recording I made http://www.broadcastgems.com/mediastreamer5/Muse_Browser_Issue_Jan29_2014_01.zip
    Notice how Firefox initiates the Muse pre-loader each time it reaches an Edge Animate object AND how the layout looks different when I use the menu buttons to access page anchors. Unfortunately, I forgot to record the form's Message Text Field, to show how narrow the column is. Any idea on how to fix/enlarge the column for this?
    BTW, I just received a form submission that I made a while back - like half an hour ago.
    Cheers

  • Downloads just disappear from the specified location such as "Desktop" or "My Documents".They are untraceable afterwards.Why does this happen?And because of this I have uninstalled Firefox and now use Chrome.

    I have been using Firefox for almost a year now,and had upgraded to Version 7 recently.
    My problem started with the downloads.
    1) When a download is to be commenced,a box appears with two options,namely "SAVE" and "CANCEL".
    Even when I click on "SAVE",the the box shows it as 'cancelled'.When I right click on the box,another dialogue box appears with a number of choices ,the top one reads 'RETRY'.
    When I click this option the download starts and it is shown in the chosen location until 99% is completed,bu the moment the download is complete,the item i.e. the downloaded item just disappears from the chosen location and is not traceable thereafter.This has happened to me repeatedly over the past week or so and I am so disgusted that I have been compelled to uninstall Firefox,and have started using Chrome.
    Please help,as I would like to get back to using Firefox again but without the above problems.

    Understood.  However, the point that I'm trying to make is that it's not the WiFi access point's security that's in question, it's having your phone's WiFi in an always-on mode that's in question.  It's simple: if your phone's WiFi is on, then it is both discoverable and hackable... even when it's not connected to a WiFi network or access point.  Here's an article about a drone in London that was created to hack smartphone WiFi signals (and hackers have been doing what this drone does for years):
    http://money.cnn.com/2014/03/20/technology/security/drone-phone/
    The point is that it's not  secure to have your phone's WiFi in an always-on mode.  It would be better for privacy and security if Apple made WiFi location aware so that it is only enabled when you are at a trusted location (e.g. your home or office).  Or, at least give us the option of location aware WiFi so that each user can determine the best mode for their phone:
    (1) Always-On (current default - not secure and many privacy issues).
    (2) Trusted mode (only on at trusted locations).
    (3) Off.

  • The other day I had downloaded the latest version of Firefox and now none of the icons for the different websites I normally go to are there?

    As I said, the other day I had downloaded the latest version of Firefox and after doing so none of the icons for the different websites that normally go to are no longer there. Websites such as MSNBC, MSN, Most visited, that entire strip is no longer visible. I tired resetting Firefox and still nothing. Can anyone tell me how to get them to appear again? It's a hassle every time that I want to go to one of those sites I have to type it in the search bar, instead of just clicking on it as I did before. Please keep in mind if you answer, that I'm still learning about these things called computers and not very well versed in some of the things that you experts know:) Thanks

    On Windows XP Firefox shows the menu bar by default and not the orange Firefox menu button that is shown when the menu bar is hidden.<br />
    The menu bar is the toolbar at the top that shows menu items like File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, Help.<br />
    You can press the F10 key or tap the Alt key to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily in case this bar is hidden (View > Toolbars or Firefox > Options).
    The Navigation Toolbar shows the Back and forward button and the input field where you type the address of a site that you want to visit (aka location bar) and also has a search bar where you can type items that you want to look up with a search engine (Google).

  • Firefox keeps refusing to connect me to sites I've visited many times and are secure, I press 'allow' sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't, what do I do?

    Firefox recently started stating in a black bar across the top
    "firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page" allow
    sometimes when I press 'allow' it does, other times even on sites I've used many many times in the past, and know they are secure, such as my Uni library account, it just keeps coming up with the same bar.
    Can anybody help me get rid of it? preferably for good! It's just slowing me down, and is infuriating. Also my energy account 'Scottish Power', now has to be opened in Safari, as firefox just logs me out within seconds, Scottish Power themselves told me to use Safari instead, and that works fine, but I am used to firefox and would prefer to keep it, it's becoming more and more difficult to use, WHY?
    Have taken screen shot and was expecting a 'browse' box, but no, so cannot upload picture either.When I tried to install the troubleshooting recommended below, firefox won't allow it as insecure! Isn't it a bit over the top when it thinks its own site insecure? what on earth is going on?

    You can't attach a screenshot to the first post that starts a thread, but you can do that in subsequent replies.
    Clear the cache and cookies only from websites that cause problems.

    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:

    If clearing cookies doesn't work then it is possible that the <i>cookies.sqlite</i> file that stores the cookies is corrupted.
    Rename (or delete) <b>cookies.sqlite</b> (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete other present cookies files like <b>cookies.sqlite-journal</b> in the Firefox profile folder in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.

  • Windows: Is it possible to optimize space usage, when both Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird are installed? I see that some files are the same in both applications (mostly common DLL libraries) - even 10 MB

    I think that the best idea is to add one folder: Mozilla shared, just for all shared libraries.

    Hm.. it is nothing critical. Not a bug, error nor mistake. Just my idea.
    Just thought about it as in similar applications:
    All Open Office software use shared libs, Microsoft Office too.
    And it could keep both Firefox and Thunderbird up to date. Now both applications update seperately, and many files (compressed, but still) are downloaded two times. The biggest files:
    d3dx9_43.dll, D3DCompiler_43.dll, mozjs.dll
    but there are many others.
    You should decide if it is worth to show my sugestion..
