Firefox will not copy pictures from webpages

''Basic Summary''
With Firefox version 12.0, now when I try to copy pictures and say paste them into a word document, it will only paste the URL for the picture.
''Steps For Recreating Event''
1. Open up Firefox to a page with a picture.
2. Right click the picture, select copy image
3. Open up Microsoft Word, Right click on screen
& select paste.
4. URL only appears.
''Temporary Solutions''
Other browsers such as IExplorer & GoogleChrome will continue to work.
Also if I rollback Firefox to ''version 11.0'' It will work properly and not just paste in the picture URL. So it's made obvious that there is another bug with Firefox 12.0.

As a new feature in Firefox 12, when you copy an image, Firefox stores HTML code for the image so that it can be pasted into Gmail (and presumably some other online rich text editors). As you have discovered, there were some unintended side effects to this change. Those are now on the bug list to be fixed as described in this recent thread: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/926093 Copy and Paste of Images NOT working. | Firefox Support Forum | Firefox Help].
Your best workaround for Word is to use the Paste Special feature. In Word 2003 and earlier, it's on the Edit menu. In Word 2007 and later, use the little drop-triangle under the clipboard icon.

  • Firefox will not enlarge pictures from ebay in small windows.

    I cannot view pictures that require a new window..
    Ebay and some sites have it set up where pictures are viewed in another window. For some reason my firefox will not do this.

    I could neither enlarge images nor open a link in a new [pop-up] window. Both problems solved by disabling FoxyProxy extension.

  • Can not copy pictures from my library to folders I created

    I have a lot of pictures in my Library - I only have one Library - the default.
    Now I want to organize many/not all of the pictures in my library to specific folders/labeled to match the pictures.
    I created some new folders that are labeled - then are not sub folders under the Library.
    What I do is --- while I'm in the Library, I click 1x on the picture, copy - then I click on the specific folder, paste. The picture does not appear in my folder.
    Would someone tell me what I'm going wrong - how to copy pictures from my Library to specific folders ?
    Also --- I do backup my Library to an external drive, when I eventually get pictures in specific folders in iPhoto --- I must now choose those specific folders to backup in addition to my Library ? I use the backup software from OS X 10.6.x to run my backup's to external disk.
    Thanks,
    Bob

    Now I want to organize many/not all of the pictures in my library to specific folders/labeled to match the pictures.
    The easiest way to do this is using iPhoto - select the photos and export them (file menu==> export) to the folder you want
    I created some new folders that are labeled - then are not sub folders under the Library.
    What I do is --- while I'm in the Library, I click 1x on the picture, copy - then I click on the specific folder, paste. The picture does not appear in my folder.
    This is not recommended -if you continue messing around inside the iPhoto library it is likely that you will change or move something and corrupt your library
    Would someone tell me what I'm going wrong - how to copy pictures from my Library to specific folders ?
    Use the export command
    Also --- I do backup my Library to an external drive, when I eventually get pictures in specific folders in iPhoto --- I must now choose those specific folders to backup in addition to my Library ? I use the backup software from OS X 10.6.x to run my backup's to external disk.
    Backup will backup exactly what you tell it to - only you know and have access to those settings

  • My LG Cosmos Touch will not download pictures from texts anymore

    For the last couple of weeks..my phone will not download pictures or texts containing a lot of bytes...according to Verizon...this phone is designed to only accept up to 3500 bytes and all the newer phones send texts with pic about 30,000 bytes....and there is no solution beyond getting a newer phone..but I do not want to pay for an internet plan...so..is there any other way to get my phone to download these things sent to me? And yes..I have taken out battery as was instructed...just hoping there is a solution that this verizon rep does not know about...I feel like this is gonna be like the Daily Scoop issue....

    Hi obrnlori,
    I am happy to provided you with an alternate way to view your pictures until you decide to upgrade to a new phone. I would suggest forwarding the picture to your free Pix Place account on our web site. Here is some information to assist you with establishing an account and transferring pictures to Pix Place  Additionally, you can also forward the picture directly to your e-mail address and view the picture via your PC.  I am hopeful this information is helpful. Please let me know if you have any additional concern.
    Thanks for your contribution to our community forums,

  • Firefox will not load pictures, videos or more than one tab at a time. Help!

    Hi there,
    I have reinstalled Firefox 3.6 a few times, but it doesn't seem to fix the problem. When I try and load a site with pictures, videos (such as YouTube, but including a blog post with pictures), or more than one tab at a time, I just get "Untitled" tabs that don't even register the address. This happens especially when clicking to open a link in a new tab from a Google Reader.
    At this point too, a lot of pages will not load correctly; even Firefox Help as it turns out!

    Sorry there is no telephone support. You could try the IRC if you want a quick response, ( whilst it is [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/ask open] )

  • After a crash and update firefox will not connect to any webpages. Internet explorer is working fine. What's going on?

    Firefox crashed. Closed all my windows - did the auto update thingy with accompanying message. Brought up the windows that had closed as usual - all said "problem loading page". Firefox will now not connect to internet. It's not a problem with my connection etc - internet explorer is working fine. Anyone else have this problem today?

    So, it's been 13 hours now and no answers. From reading the Airport Discussion board "
    Airport has a self assigned IP address, 169.254.175.198 and will not be able to connect to the internet"
    is a very common problem and I find it hard to believe Apple has not responded with a fix. I may have to take it into a Genius Bar and see what they can do but I do not have high hopes.
    You know, I was talking to someone last week and the name Apple came up. "Ah", he said, "the Evil Empire". Their success has made them much more brash than MS ever was.

  • Windows 8.1 will not copy files from intranet site.

    I am using Windows 8.1 and I am trying to copy files from an Apple Time Capsule disk to a local hard drive. First I got the message box that said "Your Internet security settings suggest that one or more files may be harmful. Do you want to use it
    anyway?" and when I said okay nothing would copy. I went into my Internet options and added the Time Capsule disk to my site list in the Local Intranet Zone and reconnected the shared drive. Now I don't get the error box but it doesn't copy
    anything either. It does nothing. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

  • Firefox will not bring up any webpages after updating to v3.6.7 and then 3.6.8

    Everything ran well in v 3.6.6. Today it seemingly upgraded to v3.6.7 and then a Mozilla web page strongly suggested upgrading to v.3.6.8. I did. Sometime after this Norton 360 v3 found some bad files and quarantined them and needed a reboot. After that reboot no web pages would work in FF. I followed the Norton 360 connection thread and that did not help. I also received a new router yesterday, but v3.6.6 worked fine today and IE works now, so I doubt that the router is the reason. Right now I would be happy to revert to 3.6.6 or else uninstall and try from scratch. I have tried a few reboots, but they did not help.

    Chrome and Omniweb both work, after 10 or 15 seconds.

  • Firefox will not open - disappears from Task Manager after a few seconds

    Everything was working perfectly fine last night. I turn on the computer this morning, try to open firefox - nothing. I click it and there's not even an error message or anything. In the Task manager, the firefox.exe appears in the Processes tab for a couple of seconds then it just disappears. I've tried running the computer in Safe Mode to open it, still nothing. I tried the Firefox Safe Mode option, still won't open. I uninstalled, then reinstalled, that didn't help.
    Any suggestions? IE works fine, but I really hate using it.

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you about that, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.<br />
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.<br />

  • Firefox will not display anything from Yahoo! correctly anymore. I get a skeleton text structure whenever I attempt to load any yahoo-based pages. However, they load in Opera fine. I've cleared all history from FF, with no results.

    Update March 7, 2011:
    I've managed to get it to work via fiddling with Adblock's settings and what I had it set to block for me.
    It will load any other page I go to fine, but Yahoo! is a no-go. I've tried clearing all history, closing FF and then restarting it, but that didn't work. I attempted to open Yahoo! in my backup Opera browser, and it worked fine. This is a little annoying.

    Bring it to an Apple store or AASP.

  • My Blu Ray player will not play pictures from my USB a second time

    I was able to play it no problem a first time, but when I went back a few minutes later to run through the pictures stored on the USB a second time, the screen goes blank, player says Stop, and I'm brought back to the home screen. 

    Hi Rivyn,
    Welcome to Sony Community!
    It would be best if you provide us the model no. of your Blu-ray player, for us to give you an accurate solution.

  • Firefox will not display pictures on most websites. I cannot see the pictures of products on Amazon or the thumbnails on my Yahoo home page.

    It's only a problem on my home desktop and isn't a problem with IE. It must be an option I can change but I can't find it.
