Firefox fixed background problems

Hi,
I am getting problems with Firefox using static backgrounds:
I think the problem has something to do with z-indexes getting mixed up while scrolling.
Has anyone else had this problem? Anyone know a fix? I used one for the internet explorer scrolling here: Re: Parallax Scroll problem using FF & Chrome on Windows machine
Thanks

Please provide site url as well browser details.
Thanks,
Sanjit

Why won't Firefox fix the problem which prevents the Awesome Screenshot plug in from working in Firefox 5?

After downloading this newest version of Firefox (5), the useful ADD ON 'AWESOME SCREENSHOT' WILL NOT WORK. COULD THIS PROBLEM BE FIXED BY YOU ALL.
THANKS.

Extensions are not part of Firefox and Mozilla is not responsible for them.
Please provide the url along with the extension name to make it easier for others to see the problems.

If you look at the extension you will see a Developer Comment
* ****** We have submitted v2.3.1 which is compatible with Firefox 5 to further review. It'll come out soon. *******
and if you look at "'''Show All Versions'''", you can find the updated version with orange-and-gray strips marked as "unreviewed" where you can download it.

When I start Firefox, I only get the background of my browser in the Firefox window. I already reinstalled it, but that doesn't fix the problem.

When I start Firefox, I only get the background of my browser in the Firefox window. I the normal window for 1 second, but then it changes in only the background window. So without toolbar, or navigation. I already reinstalled it, but that doesn't fix the problem.

Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

Firefox cannot load pages that other browsers can, but the 'help' page for this issue did not fix the problem.

I am troubleshooting an issue occurring on a family member's pc. Immediately after changing their "search" settings from "Yahoo search" to "Google search", they found that Firefox was unable to load any webpages. After troubleshooting the problem, I found the "Firefox can't load websites but other browsers can" help page, and attempted each of the solutions listed. None of those solutions fixed the issue. Also, I uninstalled and re-installed Firefox; the issue persists. However, the 'new' version of Firefox remembered the tabs left open when the 'old' version was deleted, so some temporary files likely persisted.
Are there any other steps that can be taken, or is Firefox on this computer no longer an option?

Start with this;
Type '''about:preferences#advanced'''<Enter> in the address bar.
Under '''Advanced,''' Select '''Network.'''
Look for '''Configure How Firefox Connects''' and press the '''Settings''' button.
Check the settings.
Some problems occurs when your Internet security program was set
to trust the previous version of Firefox, but no longer recognizes your
updated version as trusted. Now how to fix the problem: To allow
Firefox to connect to the Internet again;
* Make sure your Internet security software is up-to-date (i.e. you are running the latest version).
* Remove Firefox from your program's list of trusted or recognized programs. For detailed instructions, see
'''[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/configure-firewalls-so-firefox-can-access-internet Configure firewalls so that Firefox can access the Internet.]''' {web link}
If there is still a problem, go to that computer and do this;
Type '''about:support''' in the address bar and press '''Enter.'''
Under the main banner, press the button; '''Copy Text To Clipboard.'''.
Then in the reply box at the bottom of this page,
do a right click in the box and select '''Paste.'''

Firefox won't let me open more than one window at a time. how do i fix the problem

Firefox won't let me open more than one window at a time. It use to allow me to open multiple windows before but for no apparent reason it stopped. I uninstalled it and re-installed but I'm having the same problem. How do I fix the problem
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== several days ago

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" (on Mac: "Firefox > Quit")

My Jot forms are not being read in Firefox and I am getting an error message in all cases on my websites. They work fine in Safari, etc. on my MAC. And please don't ask me about versions. Your Firefox is the problem as usual. PLEASE FIX ASAP. IT IS URGENT.

Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. <br>
'''Note''': ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions and some Preferences.''
*Open websites will not be saved in Firefox versions lower than 25.
To Reset Firefox do the following:
'''For Firefox versions previous to 29.0:'''
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox"[[Image:Button reset]] 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.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

Thank you.

As soon as I open Firefox it crashes, even in safe mode. I've tried all the options to fix the problem but to no avail. My crash report number is: 1326236186. I hope this helps!

Firefox crashes as soon as I click on the icon. Even in safe mode. I've tried all options of resolving this problem but nothing is working. I really hate using Safari and Chrome. Please help!

Scan your computer in safe mode for bots, malware, trojan's and viruses. Remove any Found and reboot. If Problem still exists, go to control panel, add/remove programs remove firefox. and then download and reinstall firefox. Remember to always close as many running programs like messangers and widgetts when installing any program. This should fix your problem. only other option is to do a system restore to when you were not having any problems, this works 90% of time.

Firefox is not allowing me to add new tabs. I'm pushing the plus sign next to my tab, and it is no longer adding new tabs. How do I fix this problem?

When I open Firefox, I automatically have one tab. The plus sign button to add more tabs is next to the one tab, but it no longer adds tabs when I click on it. When I click on it, it doesn't do anything. How can I fix this problem so I can have multiple tabs? I downloaded the most current version of Firefox, and I'm still having the same problem. I've had this problem for a little over a week now.

When the cursor hovers over an email or link it opens even though I do not want it to open. This is seriously annoying and I am ready to quit firefox. Please help me fix this problem!!!

I think my explanation is enough, the link or email opens when my cursor hovers on it I want to click any link or email I want to see not have them open automatically!!!

thx for your response. are saying websites such as hotmail and yahoo mail detect that they are being accessed via firefox and turn off the JavaScript that makes hot links? really? additionally, i have friends with firefox in which hyperlinks stay active when they are copied and pasted.
was the "Make Link" add-on you posted supposed to fix the problem? i downloaded it, but i don't know where the "context menu" is that is supposed to help me. how to i view this context window now that i have downloaded the add-on?

Firefox does not print. I AM DONE USING FIREFOX UNTIL THEY FIX PRINTING PROBLEMS ONCE AND FOR ALL!

Firefox does not print. Mozilla doesn't seem to care to fix this problem, ignoring the numerous customer requests and pleadings for help. At this point, I AM DONE USING FIREFOX UNTIL THEY FIX PRINTING ONCE AND FOR ALL!!!!!!!!!
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

I honestly think the OP is making the correct decision to quit using Firefox due to all the print-related problems and Bugs that are in Firefox, '''that Mozilla doesn't want to fix'''. And there are more Bugs that affect only the Mac-platform (like the one where the user has to open a page in a new window for the 2nd web page printed from that window), than there are on Windows and Linux.
Users having to reset hidden preferences repeatedly isn't a cure.
The same 3 print-related Bugs in 2002 that caused me to take 6 months to switch over to ''Phoenix'' from IE 5.5, '''are still present in Firefox!''' I print nothing from Firefox these days without viewing Print Preview first, then about 10% of the time I do a "View in Opera" and do a Print Preview there - which shows a good print out 95% of the time (which IMO shows the page isn't at fault), and print it from Opera.
1660 Bugs listed for "'''print'''"

Firefox 4 vbc.exe System error - Programt can't start because mozsqlite3.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem

Ever since I install Firefox 4 (4.0.1), every time I boot up my computer I get this system error
vbc.exe - System Error
The program can't start because mozsqlite3.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem
I tried updating my plugins and tried reinstalling Firefox 4 but no good. The error doesn't seem to cause any problem but it's just extremely annoying seeing it pops up every time I turn on my computer. The error goes away if I reinstall Firefox 3.6
Here is a picture of it. Any help is appreciated!

hello.. to fix this problem.. just delate hkcu on start up..

The same problem again with HP Simple Pass fingerprint reader after upfrading from Firefox 4 to Firefox 5. I have already installed HPSimPlePass 7.0.74.0 to fix the problem after upgrading to Firefox 4.

I have a HP Pavilion dv6 with a fingerprint reader. I had the same problem as many other people when upgrading to Firefox 4, : I couldn't use the HP Simple Pass to enter a website needing a username and password by just swiping my fingerprint. I fixed the problem by downloading the new HPSimPlePass 7.0.74.0. This fixed the problem and I was very happy. Since upgrading to Firefox 5 I have the same problem again, but I already have the new version of HP Simple Pass. How can this be fixed so that I can use this fingerprint scan feature again, or where can I download Firefox 4 again?

Viewing a pdf in Firefox browser has white lines. How can I fix the problem?

Viewing a pdf document in the FireFox browser (other browsers the document is fine) shows white lines though the pictures. I have tried different ways to save the document (printing or save as) as a pdf and I either get white lines or missing content while viewing on Firefox.

Please update to the latest version of Firefox.
*[[Update Firefox to the latest version]]
Also make sure that your graphics card drivers and WebGl drivers are up to date
*[[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
Which pdf viewer are you using?
In order to change the default reader for PDF files (to not open PDF files with Firefox's internal PDF reader), follow these steps:
#Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and click Options (Preferences for Linux and Mac).
#In the Options (Preferences for Linux and Mac) window, select the ''Applications'' panel.
#In the ''Search'' field, type ''PDF''. You should find ''Portable Document Format (PDF)''.
#On the right hand side you should find an ''Action'' column. Use that to select your favorite PDF reader. In order to view PDF files in Firefox, choose ''Preview in Firefox''.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

Have you fixed, in Firefox 5, the problem that existed in Firefox 4 with not being able to view PDF files?

In Firefox 4 you had a bug that did not allow the viewing of PDF files. I see that you just released Firefox 5. Did Firefox 5 fix that problem?

Firefox does not intrinsically support PDF documents and never has. If you want to be able to read PDF documents within the context of the browser itself, install Adobe Reader. It will install a Firefox-compatible plugin intended for that purpose.
[http://www.filehippo.com/download_adobe_reader/ http://www.filehippo.com/download_adobe_reader/]
Once Adobe Reader is installed, you can verify that the plugin is active by typing about:plugins into the address bar, followed by ENTER. You should find Adobe's plugin among the list shown.
If there is no plugin registered to handle PDF documents then Firefox will not attempt to display them. Instead, they are treated as an ordinary download and it's up to you to have an application installed that is capable of opening them in Windows.
So, you can use other PDF reader applications but, as far as I'm aware, none of them install a plugin that allows you to read a PDF directly in the browser window. If that's what you want, use Adobe Reader. The version of Firefox shouldn't matter.
