FIrefox Browser problem- S... when I press 9 FIrefox zooms out? when I press 0 Firefox zooms in?

FIrefox Browser problem- Suddenly now when I press the 9 number key (or 6) FIrefox zooms out and when I press a 0 number key Firefox zooms in. This just started happening 2 days ago.
I am using a Mac and I have the latest Firefox . No updates of any kind have occurred in the past 4-5 days, so I must have inadvertedly activated this.
How can I deactivate this?

Hi lachem, I guess our comments in your earlier thread didn't solve the problem, but to avoid duplicate threads, let's continue there: [https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1050032 The Firefox "search for text when I start typing feature" has just stopped working correctly].

  • Clicking on a link does not open firefox and take me to the page when firefox is my default browser but does when Internet Explorer is my default browser, what is wrong?

    All of a sudden (I think after the last firefox update) links in other web pages won't open firefox to access the page when firefox is my default browser but works when I change my default browser to Internet Explorer and I can't figure out why. Help!!!

    This problem just arose for me today. Very frustrating. Tried all of the suggestions here without success. Then a very simple solution came to me:
    UNINSTALL CHROME. I haven't used Chrome for a long while anyway since it seems to have chronic problems of one sort or another. Firefox does 95% of what I need, and Internet Explorer can handle the other 5%.
    After uninstalling Chrome I clicked a mailto link. It asked me what program to use and did not list Firefox as an option for some reason. In the Tools menu, I chose "Options" and went to the "Applications" tab. Searched for "mailto". There was a single entry - when Chrome was installed it gave me no options to switch. After uninstalling Chrome I was able to change that. It still did not list Firefox, but it did list "Gmail". Selecting that causes my Gmail to open in Firefox.
    I have no idea whether Google or Microsoft is responsible for this, but I'm inclined to give the hairy eyeball to Google for this one. It's the sort of stunt they'd pull on Microsoft, then pretend it was just a mistake. Just one guy's opinion, of course.

  • Firefox crashes when I try to login using BankID (Nexus Personal v4.10.4 online). This problem started when I upgraded from Firefox 3.6 to 4.0

    The application used to work with previous versions of Firefox. I'm totally dependent on being able to login to my bank, or use the application for other identification, so if there is no solution to this problem I will be forced to uninstall or use other browsers.

    I had the same problem. When downloading something the window with the save location got stuck when I press Save or Cancel. I've uninstall Firefox completely, did some registry and PC cleans, reinstall Firefox, but the problem stood. Soon after I decided to restart my PC, and THAT solved the problem. I often put my Laptop on hibernate, maybe that cause the problem, but accidentally I guess, cause now I use hibernation again and have no problem. Now I can save any download to any location. Perhaps it is something from the OS (I have XP64) which affected Firefox in some way. So an OS Restart solved my problem. I see that Firefox IS NOT the problem... yet, but who knows... Hope this will help too...

  • After ICS update problems typing when plugged in, and battery life shortened, also Dolphin browser runs slow.

    I did the update and even did a factory reset, and I am having
    problems typing when plugged in to the wall charger, I get random keystrokes,
    from all over the keyboard, not just the keys around the one i want to press.
    Dolphin browser is running supper slow, especially when on Facebook. The
    battery life has lost at least an hour.

    Phones will do that when plugged in, esp with cheap chargers.. it has to do with the voltage and coveting and the digitized screen. You can google if you want more indepth there
    clear data out of dolphin,check for update? also read comments on the app maybe it sucks on ics
    battery stats got erased when you did a factory reset, give it a few charge cycles

  • Embedded pictures in g-mail do not get thru when forwarded. Google claims it's a browser problem. how do I fix this?

    I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate, Firefox 3.6.16
    This problem started up about 4 months ago. I thought it was a Google problem, but Google claims it's a browser problem. The same problem happens with Internet Explorer. I checked the Google website and many people are having this same problem. And Google is totally unresponsive.
    Attached pictures go thru fine, but if I get an e-mail from someone with embedded pictures in the message, when I forward that message, the receiver does not get the pictures...only a red X in a blank box.
    How can this be fixed?

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    [[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''

    It was working fine and I had no problems, and then one day I tried opening a window and it froze. When I tried quiting the program my whole window went black. The x to the close the window doesn't work. The only option I have in my tool bar is Firefox and nothing happens when I try to quit firefox. Every time I try to shut down my computer Firefox prevents it. I haven't updated Firefox yet, so it's an older program, but only by a month or two. What's going on and how do I fix it?

    This is the first time it's ever happened. I downloaded the new operating system for Firefox but I can't install it until the Firefox currently running on my laptop quits, which it won't.

  • I can only open one Firefox browser window. When I click the firefox icon from desktop or taskbar to open up another browser window it does not open. I am ablt to open up new tabs within the one window.

    I can only open one Firefox browser window. When I click the firefox icon from desktop or taskbar to open up another browser window it does not open. I am ablt to open up new tabs within the one window.

    Have you tried: click Firefox button > New Tab > New Window '''''OR''''' CTRL+N '''''OR''''' File > New Window (if using the Menu Bar)
    Once open, Firefox locks the Profile that is in use and you can not open another window with that Firefox version and Profile combination using the Windows Desktop icon or the Windows Programs list.

    Hi. I use Adobe Acrobat XI pro to make a PDF ebook embedded with audio. It works really well on my computer-I can read the book and hear the auto play mp3. The problem is, when I send it to my customers, they have difficulty hearing the audio. A few of them say they have Flash player on their PC and somehow they still can't hear, some say their Google Chrome browser tells them they've already got one flash player while they try to download one. For me, I had to download two versions of Flash player to be able to access to the audio. I don't know what the problem is, is it because it's the latest version of Adobe Acrobat XI pro that people with older version of Adobe reader or flash player can't open it properly? Or is it something else? How can I make sure every customer with different system can access to my books? Hope to hear from you ASAP! Thank you very much.

    And how are the customers accessing the PDFs?
    What devices are they using?
    What program or apps with versions are they using?
    I this age of other then PDF eBooks formats and reader program and apss for computers and mobile devices for these formats I would look at creating the books in one or more of the eBook formats.
    Google Chrome and FireFox both have their own version of a PDF reader plug-in and they are well known to be less capable than Adobe Reader. It is possible to configure these products to use Adobe Reader.

    If you refer to this

    then they have an issue with mac version.
    At a first glance, their website is optimized for Windows only, it displays badly in Safari, perhaps it would be better in Firefox or other browser.

  • Can not make FF my default browser...When asked I get "Your computer must be restarted to complete a previous upgrade of FF". When this is done, it's the same thing all over again...

    Can not make FF my default browser...When asked to make, I get "Your computer must be restarted to complete a previous upgrade of FF". After restart, it's the same thing all over again. I have explorer & chrome installed on my PC.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == A few monts ago.

    It is probably because you are not properly closing Firefox. Restarting your system would make sure that Firefox had terminated, but you do not have to do that.
    To properly close Firefox on Windows systems, use
    :File > Exit or "Firefox:" button > Exit
    When you get the message "Firefox is already running" it is too late, and you must force termination of Firefox through the Windows Task Manager before restarting Firefox. Windows 7 has a keyboard shortcut to save you a step "Ctrl+Shift+Esc" then on "Processes" tab, select "firefox.exe" and use the "End Process" button. More thorough would be to right-click on the "firefox.exec" and choose "End Process Tree".
    You would find firefox.exe in a Mozilla folder in your program files, but y0u would not want to delete it there, you would need to use the Control Panel which you have already identified and do it from there -- but generally you would not need to do that, and there is nothing in what you have posted to indicate that you should. But if you did do that, then don't let the install start Firefox for you as you would want to use you existing desktop icon or method of starting Firefox, and should decline having Firefox install start Firefox for you. When the install starts then invoke Firefox in your normal manner. This should eliminate problems of creating a new profile rather than using your old profile.

  • 10g browser problem

    After I downloaded Internet Explorer 7 , I couldn't log on to 10g database control through Firefox. I have the latest version of firefox, 2.0.0.3 . I have to notice that for 10g database control I used Firefox until yesterday when this was not possible no more.
    I enter the server adress in my firefox adress bar and I get database log on form.
    Then i enter the username , password ,choose connection as sysdba and press Login button, but nothing happens, as like i didnt press anything .
    In IE7 i can log on, there are no problems.
    When I press View page source on database control log on page in firefox, source code showed in different format from format that is showed on computer of my coulegee that do the same thing in same firefox version, and he also have IE7 . We are both logged on company domain, so we have same policys, and he can log on to database through Firefox. :-)
    So , if anyone got the point from this long story :-), i would appriciate anykind of comment. I will gladly give more details if it is needed.
    thx,

    Hi CJS23
    I edited your post to remove the product key information. Posting even partial product keys is not allowed on these forums.
    The error code  0xC004E003 simply means that the Software Licensing Service reported that license evaluation failed.
    Here is what you need to do.
    1. Press the WINKEY+R to bring up the Run dialog box.
    2. Type  SLUI 4  in the box and press OK. This will start the Telephone Activation Wizard.
    3. Select your country in the drop down menu and click the Next Button. Follow the instructions on the screen.
    If the telephone activation fails, stay on the line and an Activation Representative will answer and avtivate the system for you.
    Hope this helps.
    Thank You for testing Windows 7

  • Browser freezing up when clicking Monitor - Access Points

    Is there anyone else having problems with the browser freezing up when (in Classical Mode) clicking Monitor -> Access Points? Clicking Configure -> Access Points works as it should. Sometimes the browser unfreezes after a while but no output is displayed on the page.
    We're running Cisco Prime Infrastructure version 1.3 (in HA-mode if that makes a difference but the problem exists even after failing over).
    I've tried Chrome, IE9 and Firefox 19.0.2 and the problem exists in all of them.

    I know that my version of Firefox isn't supported but according to the list of supported browsers these are ok:
    IE: 8 and 9
    Firefox: 10 - 14 (everything else works in 19)
    Chrome
    Since two of the browsers I used to test are supported it doesn't feel like a browser-problem
    I have opened a case with our supplyer who hopefully will open a TAC-case if they don't find anything by themselves. However, I thought that it might be a good idea to check if it was a known problem where the fix would show up in the next version
