Firefox has too much space between text

Something changed in my Firefox display. It is now showing a large amount of space between text. Also, the fields for data entry have increased their size. Text size is okay. Thank you for your help.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
*Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

Too much space between Divs/Containers?

http://kansascitycrates.com/antiques.html
I am rewriting my company website and can't find the setting to move my top 2 containers (editable regions) closer to the header / horizontal spry menu bar?
Specifically, I want to reduce the space above and below the "Crate Examples" & "Antiques" title graphics.
Thank you in advance, I read all day yesterday about absolute positioning and Divs, but can't get my head around how to apply it to my editable regions.

What's the 'tiny_spacer_rule' for which is applied to the paragraph tag between the end of your
'header' section and the start of the table?
<li><a href="testimonials/2010/june/2010june_testimonials.html">TESTIMONIALS</a></li>

How To Reduce Space Between Text and Image

I am trying to wrap text around an irregular shape in InDesign CS4. I used the pen tool to mark the outline of the image, cut the image, then selected the pen outline and pasted the image into the outline. With the TextWrap settings set to what is in this dialog box, text wrapping appears fine on the right-hand side, but has too much space on the left-hand side.
If I try to reduce the space even further, it just affects the right-hand side of the image, not the left:
It is doing the same thing for all of my irregularly-shaped images where I try to wrap text. How can I reduce the whitespace to the left of the image?

Actually just noticed your text is already justified apologies.
Couple more things you can try to improve this:
From Control panel menu choose Justification and try using the following settings:
Minimum
Desired
Maximum
Word Spacing
80%
100%
120%
Letter Spacing
-2%
0%
2%
Glyph Scaling
98%
100%
102%
Also check that Single Word Justification is set to Full Justify.

Screen came up that Firefox is using too much space?????

Doing some web browsing and a screen came up saying that Firefox was using too much space. How can I fix this?

I have found the message useful as a reminder to restart Firefox soon, because of it I am a lot more likely to restart Firefox if leave the room so it will have been restarted automatically by the time I get back. It is measuring memory, but once my CPU time gets near 50 minutes it may soon be 1 hour then 2 hours, I think Firefox is running better now both because Firefox has identified some problems and because of the reminder from AVG.
I wouldn't advise disabling the warning, and I don't think anyone on the AVG forum thread would be doing it either but here is their own thread:
*Web Browsers High Memory Usage
*: http://forums.avg.com/us-en/avg-forums?sec=thread&act=show&id=180124
Firefox can be quickly restarted with an extension that shuts down Firefox, restarts Firefox, and returns user to where they were automatically. "Restartless Restart" for current Firefox users. Firefox users up to Firefox 3.6.* would have to use the older extension "QuickRestart"

When I print a Word document to a shared printer, print preview looks fine but the printed page has too much blank space at the top and doesn't print the bottom few lines.

When I print a Word for Mac document to a shared printer (that is connected to my iMac) from my Macbook Pro, print preview looks fine but the printed page has too much blank space at the top and doesn't print the bottom few lines. I have tried to adjust the margins and the page setup settings but to no avail. It used to print fine until recently. Is there a way to fix it so that the printer prints what print preview shows?

I should add that when I e-mail this document to myself and print it directky from the iMac, it prints fine.

Firefox uses too much cache when commenting in Facebook - 45MB when the text is only 1kB - why?

Firefox uses too much cache when commenting in Facebook. I wrote a comment up to 1000 characters and my PC crawled. I had to wait several times for the text to catch up with my typing. I cleared caches after entering my comment and it freed up 45MB of RAM from the firefox.exe process in Windows Task Manager. Why does Firefox use 45MB when the text is only 1kB?
Another time the firefox.exe process began at 88MB and went up to 250MB whilst writing a comment, reducing to 170MB afterwards. Firefox hogs the CPU too (I tried the CPU hogging tips but none was the solution to this), but the memory usage is the issue because the CPU would not be hogged if less data was being moved or cached.
I accept some slowness on an old 1.2GHz 512MB PC but the facebook issue is much worse than other sites.

Of course it is, but there isn't much we can do about it, isn't it? Therefore I suggested firefox3, to alleviate things a little (it does it for me). Flash doesn't even work at all for me in Opera, I only get a grey window where the video should be.
Bye, signor_rossi.
The newest version of flash Plugin only works with Opera 9.5 beta. If you want to use flash with the stable Opera find an older version of the flash plug in.
Thanks for the hint, will keep that in mind in the case I will switch to Opera again (used it for a while because Firefox2 scrolling was bad, with 3 it is much better). Besides, there is a new flash version in the repos.

Getting rid of too much whitespace between rows of textfields

I'm creating a form with Arial, 8pt text fields (labels with associated textboses). I have too much whitespace between the rows of text fields.
Is FormCentral flexible enough to allow me to set some property of the form to remove some of this white space? or do I need to use Adobe Acrobat for that?
When I try to move the row of text fields up in FormCentral, as soon as I release the move the textboxes snap back down to their lower position.
When I print out the .pdf, there is all this white space between rows and my form prints on two pages instead of one.
Thanks, Susan

Susan,
FormsCentral does not have any settings that will allow you to change the vertical spacing between lines. This is a limitation of both FormsCentral and HTML. Something you can try to mitigate the issue is to change the Labels from Labels on Top to Labels Right or Labels Left. When you print your form to pdf you can get a preview of how it will layout by changing the form design view from Web View to Page View (use the View menu). How the form prints to PDF should match how it looks in Page View. If this is not the case then please let me know.

Apps taking up too much space on my computer harddrive?

Hi guys,
Whenever I hook my iPad & iPhone up to iTunes it automatically starts to upload all of the apps from both devices onto my computer. This wouldn't be such a problem, but between the iPhone and the iPad, it takes up around 40 GB of space from apps all by themselves. I store music/videos on an external harddrive so I'm not completely starved for harddrive space but I was wondering if someone could tell me what I can do to keep my iPad/iPhone apps from eating up too much space on my computer?
Seems like I should be able to avoid having the iPhone/iPad (I use both) upload and backup all of my apps to my computer through iTunes but I also tried doing a backup straight ti iCloud and it didn't do the trick.
Does anyone have any answers on this please? Thanks.

400 apps taking up 13.6Gb so I get an estimate of 1,175 (wow I have some bulky apps!) but 40Gb sounds like quite a haul.
A couple of things come to mind. First is that occasionally iTunes can neglect to delete the old copy when apps are updated so you could have some orphaned files in your Mobile Applications folder.
Second, your apps should be stored in the same location as your music and movies but I'm guessing from what you've written that they're not. This means you are likely to have a split library with the database and supporting files on your internal drive and media in another folder, but in the old school layout. Assuming you are happy letting iTunes organize your files (and you have a backup) using File > Library > Organize Library > Rearrange files in the folder <Media Folder>, followed by File > Library > Organize Library > Consolidate files will sort that out. You'll have to delete the now redundant copies of the apps on your internal drive. The good news is that this will have dealt with any orphaned apps.
In the long term you might want to consider making your library portable.
Note switching to iCloud backup should not remove any content from your computer. I suspect purchases still get transferred when syncing but I've not tested it.

All pictures in Photos on Mac syncing with Photos on iPhone and taking up too much space

Since I downloaded Photos on my MacBook Pro, all the pictures that I had in iPhotos are not showing up on Photos on my laptop AND my iPhone. I used to be able to choose which iPhoto albums to sync with my iPhone and would prefer to do that again. It is taking up way too much space to have them all synced to my phone. Any idea how to choose which pictures I want available on my phone???

Before the migration to Photos on laptop, I would go to iTunes, Photos, Sync Photos, Selected Albums, and then choose the albums from iPhoto to sync to phone.
Since I had the problem with all of the photos syncing to iPhone, I un-checked Sync, but they were all still showing up on iPhone.
I just looked at iTunes and saw this message:
When I looked last week, the "copy from _______" was not an option. Now I am able to choose the iPhoto albums that I want to sync just as I was before.
I still don't know why they were syncing when I didn't have that option selected, but it appears Apple has fixed the issue I was having.
I guess I will continue to use iPhoto rather than Photos on my laptop to avoid this issue again.
Thank you for your help!!!!

Too Much Space on the Page

Why is there an extra three inches of space below the lowest object on my pages in preview (and published)? The depth is set to default standard and there are no items or boxes stretching it out. This has happened more than once.

Thank you for your response. This has happened on two sites I developed and I can't find a workaround.

Too much space after form

There is too much space after the form:
http://zooop.net/birch_center/
I can control the space by adding a height tag in this tag:
<iframe src="
http://www.birchcenter.com/OpenNewsletter/includethis.php"
frameborder="0" width="170" scrolling=no style="border:0px;
font:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
color:#666666"></iframe>
But when users enlarge their text either through their OS or
their browser, the "Subscribe" buttons sinks behind the text after
it, and is not functionlal.
Does anyone know why there is so much space after the form
and how I could get rid of it?
Thanks very much,
Emilie

Many HTML tags have inherent margins, and <form> is one
of them. Use CSS to
control it -
form { margin:0; padding:0; }

Bookmark Toolbar bookmarks have icons & take up too much space.

Firefox 4 beta 3 added icons to the Bookmark Toolbar, i.e. folder icons next to folder drop-downs, and mini-icons for links. While they're pretty, they take up too much space. Beta 2 didn't look like this.
How can I get rid of them?

Not on OS X.<br />
It is probably the first Firefox version that will have icons on the Bookmarks Toolbar if you get them by default.<br />
In previous Firefox versions you need a special theme or code in userChrome to accomplish that.<br />
Now you will need code in userChrome.css if you want to suppress those icons.
Add code to [http://kb.mozillazine.org/UserChrome.css|userChrome.css] below the @namespace line.<br />
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Editing_configuration#How_to_edit_configuration_files<br />
<pre><nowiki>@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */
#personal-bookmarks .toolbarbutton-icon {
display:none !important;
</nowiki></pre>

How do I remove the Icons next to each bookmark on the bookmark toolbar? They take up too much space and all the bookmarks I need on the toolbar dont show up.

On my bookmarks toolbar, each bookmark has the associated webpage icon next to it. I would like to remove those icons, as they take up too much space.
Thanks

The icons, if you are familiar with them or they are obvious, take up less space than the words. You can abbreviate the names down to next to nothing or even nothing.
To save space and help organization you can group bookmarks into folders on your Bookmarks toolbar.

Why is webpages I vist not fitting the screen. There is too much space on the left side and I cannot access my scroll bars.

Seems the pages I visit on the net are pushed more to the right, leaving too much space on the left side. Therefore, I cannot acccess the scroll down or across bars.

Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems: <b>View > Zoom > Reset</b> (Ctrl+0 (zero); Cmd+0 on Mac)

Firefox consumes too much RAM, caused by js

I'm having problems with Firefox consuming too much RAM memory. Several people are complaining about this but I did some further research before posting here, using about:memory, and I found out that js-non-window and js-main-runtime are causing this.
When I start up a blank Firefox session I immediately have an allocation of 260MB of RAM. About 75-80% of this is taken up by those two js (javascript?) processes.
After opening about 10 tabs with different webpages the RAM usage has gone up to about 750MB. During the time the tabs are open most of the extra MB's are consumed by the window-objects (40MB per page, still seems quite a lot to me for just a news site with one article...) but after closing them the memory usage didn't go down and it transferred to the two already mentioned js processes. This transfer to the js processes is not always the case, it seems to happen only if I open a lot of tabs, let's say 10+ perhaps.
I tried disabling Javascript using the plugin SettingSanity, but this makes browsing quite uncomfortable of course and worst of all it doesn't solve the problem. The mentioned processes keep using the same amount of RAM.
I have this exact same problem on all my computers and laptops so it can't be a coincidence. Is there nothing I can do about this? Is this under investigation? How can a browser with 10 web pages open need almost 800MB of RAM?
And please don't answer "install more RAM". The pc I have most problems with has 2GB of physical RAM and I really do think that opening 10 web pages should be possible on such a computer. Doing the same in Internet Explorer consumes less than half the amount of RAM memory.
P.S: I sent this query using IE because I could't get to this page in Firefox. The "Ask This" button didn't work...

Try in Firefox's safe mode disable all plugins, and open with only a new tab set by using ''about:blank'' . As suggested above also consider as a test creating and using a new Firefox profile.
When I start like that I have around 70MB explicit shown in ''about:memory'' and that includes ''js-non-window'' of around 30MB
I know in the past I have opened more than 10 tabs on a machine with less than 1GB ram installed and not noticed problems.
