Firefox, Mac or PC!

I have been working on this website:
http://www.rmns.org. I am building
it on my mac and I use Firefox as my web browser. I finally got it
to work on my mac in Firefox, Safari and on the PC with IE 6 and IE
7. Then I nonchalantly I checked it out using Firefox on the PC. If
you are using Firefox you can see how screwed it is. It looks as
though my content div is pushed over to the right of my menu up
top.
Why is it doing this and how do I remedy the situation. I
appreciate any help I might receive, thank you.

WordPress page, weird display in Firefox-Mac

Hello,
My client has a WordPress blog, and he tells me that when he
view his latest
post in Firefox/Mac, he sees a "milky white overlay" on top
of the page, and
that this "overlay" prevents him from being able to click
anywhere where it
is.
He says "It does not seem to affect Firefox on Linux nor
Safari on Mac."
Here's the blog, and it's the current post where he sees the
weird display:
http://blog.miraverse.com/
Here's a screenshot (reduced slightly) showing the "white
overlay":
http://ayersvirtual.com/temp/firefox-overlay2.jpg
I don't see this in any browser on any of my PCs.
Does anyone see that problem in your browser? (Would
appreciate any
Firefox/Mac checks in particular.)
Does anyone have a clue what might be causing it??
Thanks very much in advance for any help.

QuickTime files not visible in Firefox (Mac) & poster frame not visible

I created a website with QuickTime samples and uploaded it to an ftp server.
I can see the QT files when I access via Safari (Mac + Win), Chrome (Win), IE (Win) and Firefox (Win), but for some reason, when I access via Firefox (Mac) they do not appear???????? Any ideas on that?
Also, I have tried setting a poster frame, both using QT Pro and iWeb's poster frame function, but it does not seem to be working. I still only see the first frame of the video which unfortunately is a black frame. I am getting a little frustrated with this...
Please help.

There are alternative ways to add a QT file to a web page that might be of interest to you. Both ways do not require the movie to load with the page which speeds up the page load.
1 - Opening Item in New Window Sized for the Item.
2 - QT Movie Exported out of QT via Export for Web

Cannot type anything in TextInput using Firefox Mac Version

Hello,
I tried to practice the example in the chapter 12 of Flex2
Getting Started Document.
It is fine using IE, Firefox (Windows), and Safari, however I
can not type anything in the TextInput through Firefox Mac version!
It is also fine when I directly open the SWF file.
Does anyone know what's happened ?
Thank you very much !

Some have reported that pressing F9+Windows one or more times has worked to fix issues with the keyboard not working.

Sync isn't a "cloud service" to back up miscellaneous user selected files. Only specific Firefox user data and preferences are synchronized.

How to make Firefox (Mac) not go back a page upon pressing the Cmd+Left-Combination which should set the text cursor to the beginning of a line in input fields instead of leaving the page?

On a Mac, Cmd+Left places the text cursor to the beginning of the line, Cmd+Right to the end of the line.
FireFox however goes back resp. forward a page in hinstory, which is ''most annoying'', since it very often causes me to accidentally leave a still unsubmitted form and loose all input!
I did not find any possibility to get rid of these dreadful keybindings.

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.)

Flash disappears in Firefox Mac?? how come?

Is this a bug?
I have a site with flash to be 100% act as background in a
z-index div. Above the background div, there's another div with
main html content and a set of buttons in a flash file.
ONLY in mac firefox, the buttons disappear and so as the main
html content. All the other browsers in PC and Safari works fine. I
have read I need to remove css opacity I have used something so I
did that. The buttons flash flash shows back up on top of the flash
background but I still CANNOT see my html main content?!
Please help! any ideas?!

Hi,
Adobe Flash Player is a plugin that allows browsers such as Firefox to display Flash media on web pages.
Open your simulation in web browser, if there is any flash content , it will display in that.
I hope, I was able to answer your question if not then please provide some more information on this.
Regards,
Devendra

Characters in query not recognized in silverlight SQL management tool - firefox & mac

I have several problems working with the Azure SQL management portal ( silverlight ) on my Mac ( current issue is with Firefox but I have had the same problem with Chrome ).
Problem :
Queries I type in through the online editor come back with strange syntax errors regarding missing characters etc ( see attached screen shot )
I have got this error so many times that the online portal is useless to me.

Hi Marakas,
According to your description, we need to verify if you want to update the value of LookImageURL to ‘smart-1.jpg’ with two single quotes or not. If you just want to get the smart-1.jpg without any quote, you can refer to the following T-SQL statement.
update SuperFashionDB.Looks
set LookImageURL='smart-1.jpg' where id ='25D25926-2B5C-40F6-8944-F0B32822E7C0'
---the result as follows.
id URL
25D25926-2B5C-40F6-8944-F0B32822E7C0 smart-2.jpg
If you just want to get the smart-1.jpg with two quotes, you can refer to the following T-SQL statement.
update SuperFashionDB.Looks
set LookImageURL= '''smart-2.jpg''' where id ='25D25926-2B5C-40F6-8944-F0B32822E7C0'
---the result as follows.

Cannot browse to Outlook webmail - Firefox, Mac

I have Firefox 35.0.1 and OS X Yosemite 10.10.1
On Firefox, I cannot browse to webmail.oxfam.ca. I can do so on Safari on the same computer but on Firefox, the wheel just spins, Connecting... and eventually it times out and I get a blank page with an error message.
I've looked for solutions on line having to do with supported browsers, changing History and Security settings, and I can't find the solution. Cookies and cache have been cleared.
I can get to OWA on my other Mac on Firefox. It's running Mavericks instead of Yosemite and the add-ons/plug-ins are a bit different from between the 2 Firefoxes but don't know which ones - if any - to change.
Any suggestions?

Hi HewsieQ37,
According to your description, I understand that you cannot use Firefox 35.0.1 logon OWA on Mac, however another Mac with same version works fine.
If I misunderstand your concern, please do not hesitate to let me know.
Firefox is supported for Outlook Web App when it runs on Exchange 2013, for your reference:
https://support.office.microsoft.com/en-us/article/Outlook-Web-App-%E6%94%AF%E6%8C%81%E7%9A%84%E6%B5%8F%E8%A7%88%E5%99%A8-7bb72d5f-0b1d-47f6-bd6f-2623ab3aeed8?CorrelationId=9751a8d8-22ab-4e56-bf9a-422559b1419c&ui=zh-CN&rs=zh-CN&ad=CN
Besides, since other Mac with same browser works well, it indicate that the issue may be related to client.
During my research, I suspect the problem may be caused by Mavericks.
Please try to update to latest version, meanwhile you can contact Mac support team so that you can get more professional suggestions.
Best Regards,
Allen Wang

How can i import passwords from opera to firefox (mac)?

Hi,
I am setting up my new computer and want to use firefox instead of opera. But I cannot seem to figure out how to import the passwords from opera to firefox (or to export them from opera). Any advice? I am on a mac.

Just wanted to say thanks for once again being able to come to this discussion board to resolve a problem. This time I came looking for information on how to restore my lost bookmarks on Firefox. This thread had the answer and it made a whole lot more sense than the information I found on the Mozilla website. So a big thank you to the posters who share their expertise with technologically-challenged people like me!

Once I access email either on start page or from email page, I can not back up without restarting Firefox, Mac OS 10.4.11

Email from start page won't open more than one time, once I go back it won't open again no matter how many times I click on it.
Email from email page won't back up once opened. It only goes back to start page after multiple clicks. Running Mac-Mini with OS 10.4.11.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== After last "MANDATORY" update.

re "Apple should have the control panel report the proper IP address"
On clicking Personal web sharing, you get information to the effect:
View this computer’s website at http://10.1.1.4/ or your personal website at http://10.1.1.4/~user/
This is wrong to a user. Others could not enter this URL and get access to the website using this information. This is what I meant by "wrong"--its NOT the IP address that the user should use to view/use the web site. The software already knows its using DHCP, etc., so it should know to present the modem's IP and from memory in the past it did. As a wrote earlier, I used to be able to just copy the IP address given.
What Apple probably need are two statements:
To view this computer’s website from the local network use ...
To view this computer’s website from the internet use ...
Even, then I'd question the use of 10.1.1.4.

Firefox Mac Very Slow

This has been happening from the past few iterations of Firefox (I'm on FF 18 at the moment, and I can recall it happening since at least Firefox 15.
Firefox is a HUGE HUGE resource hog. I have permanently switched to Chrome but still use Firefox for some private browsing (no, not for that, it's so I can log in to Tumblr / Gmail on alternate accounts and not have settings saved which annoys me)
Firefox has caused actual physical damage to my laptop - it continually thrashes my CPU on the easiest tasks such as switching tabs or scrolling past a GIF image on Tumblr. My CPU usage skyrockets to 99% and I've even seen it go to 127% which I didn't even think was possible.
The thing is, I have Chrome open with the following tabs:
Hotmail, Facebook, Tumblr, Forums, 9GAG.
And FF open with:
Gmail, Tumblr.
If I load two identical pages on Tumblr, particularly if there is a video embedded, Firefox will bring my macbook to its knees, making switching windows a laborious process. Opening a new tab causes CPU hitching, so much so to the point where I can type a full address into the address bar, take both my hands off the keyboard and raise them up in the air before Firefox catches up and puts what I typed into the bar. Using CMD+1/2/3/4 etc to switch tabs takes about 3 seconds, on Chrome it is instant.
I have no addons installed on Firefox, no theme. Just adblock plus. No other extensions or plugins. Just stock FF and ABP. I have tried reinstalling and resetting Firefox to no avail. This is a problem with your browser that many others have reported.
I'm not the kind of douchebag who expects reimbursement but I'm pissed off that because of the thrashing of my CPU directly caused by FF, the following negative effects have taken place on my Laptop:
High temperatures in the 90c+ rating -
- Causes the fan to spin much faster than it should, which:
• Causes the bearings to wear out,
• Makes the fan a lot louder than it should be over time,
• Decreases the life of the fan.
• Decreasing the life of the CPU
• Has caused the glue on the feet to soften, the rear feet have now fallen off. If you think it is a coincidence, let me remind you that the CPU is at the rear of the laptop.
• Lack of feet on rear of laptop have caused numerous scratches and scrapes.
The point is, Firefox, a browser, with two tabs open, one of them being a rarely-active email tab, is throttling my CPU to the extent that Final Cut Pro rendering would throttle my CPU.
I have had enough and decided to see if opera can fit my browsing needs. For the first time in a long time, I have closed down Firefox and, hey presto, my laptop fans have died down and the temperature of the CPU has receded to a normal 60c.
Fact of the matter is, Chrome is just an all round better browser. The only thing I miss from Firefox is using three fingers on the track pad to get to the top and bottom of pages quickly. Other than that I haven't looked back and have been enjoying a fast, smooth, heat and noise free browsing experience.
Nevertheless I would like to continue to use Firefox for my Private Browsing needs, unfortunately I will not be doing so until Mozilla takes a long, hard look at performance improvements to this most sluggish of browsers.
Macbook Pro Mid 2010 model
Mac OSX 10.6.7
Firefox 18 (and now that I've closed it, it'll be Firefox 19)
4GB RAM, 2.26GHz Dual Core CPU

I had the same problem and Googled it, and found your post and many others of the same style. I have found the solution. It was so easy. Go to Tools-Add-Ons to open the 'Add-Ons Manager' and remove any of your old extensions first. I removed five that were outdated.
Then go to Plugins and Disable all and everything here. You will be surprised how fast Firefox is after that. In addition, my Flash Player had to be updated.
When I see that I cannot view something and get a message that I need a plugin, I can enable that which I need. Also, I have a Macbook Pro just like you but it's 5 years old now and it has considerably slowed down since then. I can almost no more use iPhoto with my big photos from the Canon 5D. So part of this problem may also be your computer. Last not least, when you use Youtube often you don't want to miss Firefox because videos load so much faster than on Safari.

Flash Player 9 won't work with Firefox-Mac 867 dual mhz

I'm using a Mac G4 dual 867 mhz, OS 10.3.5 and can't get Flashplayer 9 to work on Firefox. I have the 10.3.9 update but can't get it to install. Is the problem the OS version or something else?

Gary,
Thanks for quick response
"First, through IE6, verify your installed version:
http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about"
Doing this doesn't show installed version, as it does when I
go there from my laptop.
"Can you get to other sites? If yes, does FP work there? If
you couldn't get to the doc's website at all, it's an IE6 related
issue, not FP."
Doesn't work at Adobe either. I can get to the doc's website
but his intro page is a flash video. Get black screen and if you
right click it will say "about Flash Player 9" so I know I'm there
and FP is installed and running
"Many things can be the cause, probs w/IE6 (settings),
AV/IS/Spyware/Adware/Popup blockers, etc.. These can also affect
FP."
I tried checking the IE6 settings per stuff on the forums,
disabled AVG AV and WINXP firewall and none of that helped. Pop-up
blocker says it isn't on.
"I'm surprised that your desktop XP didn't have any FP.
Usually it does have it, but the older versions don't show up in
the Control Panel/Add or Remove Programs list. They're way down in
C:/Windows/System32/Macromed/Flash folder."
Didn't look at Control Panel , just that going to web site
said we needed FP.
"If you can get to the site and ya just can't view flash, try
these things:
Then, go down to the Flash folder and see what's there. You
should have a FlashUtil9x, a Flash9x.ocx, an uninstall file and
maybe a txt file. While online as an Admn User, dbl click on the
Util9x and a "wizard" panel should appear. Follow the instructions.
Close/restart IE, test (go to the site). If no-go, reboot, go IE6
and test again.
Yes, this may get you to FP10, but your IE6 and flash will be
working."
Already did this also, the only "wizard" that comes up either
automatically updates to FP10 or does nothing. In one of your
previous threads you said it would "set" FP. What does that mean
and what screen/button/icon should I be seeing?
Anyway, one of the several times I did it, I let it install
FP10 but it didn't solve the problem.
Ron
