Go to a Website no longer disappears when cursor in blank field
Normal windows standards dictate that an empty field show blank when a cursor is put in it. However, starting with FF15, the Go to a Website verbiage does not disappear. Is there a config to make this go away? Confusing, because your never sure quickly if the cursor went into the field.
"The placeholder will only disappear after you have typed at least one character." What?! Are you kidding me?!! This is not acceptable!
I restored my computer just to go back to Firefox 14.0.1, and then I shut off updates. And it's going to stay like that permanently until this is solved.

All website PDF s disappear when I try to open. They go somewhere.Where and Why?
All website PDF s disappear when I try to open. They go somewhere.Where and Why? A green arrow shows.
Current Firefox versions have enabled a built-in PDF Viewer that doesn't have all features that other PDF readers like the Adobe Reader have or may not function properly otherwise.
You can change the action for Portable Document Format (PDF) from Preview in Firefox to use another application like the Adobe Reader or set to Always Ask in "Firefox > Options/Preferences > Applications".
You can set the pdfjs.disabled pref to true on the <b>about:config</b> page to disable the build-in PDF viewer.
You can check the value of the plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types pref on the about:config page and remove the application/pdf part if present or reset the pref to the default via the right-click context menu if you want to display PDF documents in Firefox with another application (i.e. not the built-in PDF Viewer).

After installing iTunes 10.4.0.80 "file" "edit" etc items from menu bar at top right corner disappeared -when cursor is put in that spot a darker rectangle appears - similarly tabs for syncing iPhone are invisible- and similarly small ovals appear when cursor is placed where tabs should be.
Very many thanks to you, Putaro! Your answer provided the solution. It was a buggy plug-in that turned out to be the culprit.
You're off the hook, Apple, and my apologies for stating that you let a dog run loose. You skated by this time, Apple. But I'm watching you.
But again, Putaro's reference to the plugins I had installed over the years turned out to illuminate the problem. I have several plugins in my iTunes plugins folder, pretty much all designed to add more visualizer functionality. I removed all of them, and ALL of the problems I noted in my post went away, with full iTunes functionality restored.
I began adding the plugins back to hopefully single out the culprit. Among the ones I had been using included fielder, G-Force, Timestrech, volcanokit, QuartzComposer, and Jax. I hadn't used any of them in a while - probably at least a verison or more back in iTunes updates, but iTunes continued to work with all of them installed. Currently, only QuartzComposer continues to work in iTunes 10.4. The rest no longer even show up as visualizer opitons, with one exception. Jax does show up, but does not work. AND THE PRESENCE OF JAX IS WHAT KILLED MY ITUNES.
I looked into it and went back to the developer, and it appears that they discontinued developing Jax some time ago - evidently, it was buggy and crash prone. I remember after buying it, having problems with it - having never worked to its touted potential, but I didn't pursue it, and never uninstalled it. Leaving it in there caused all iTunes functionality to cease with the iTunes 10.4 update.
If you've got Jax installed, consider removing it before updating to iTunes 10.4.
My iTunes is now working right as rain, thanks again to Putaro!

Icons on menu bar disappear when cursor is hovers
When there are more than one .pdf file open, the icons on the menu bar disappears when the curson hovers over them. To get them to reappear, Adobe Reader has to be close and reopen. This happens randomly. Has anyone else seen this and is there a fix.
Have you checked your network settings?

Spry menu bar submenu disappears when cursor changes
Hello.
I've been working with a spry menu bar for some time, but when I expand the submenu and then move the cursor over some text on the page (where the sub-menu is on top of), the submenu disappears. In other words, it seems that when the cursor changes from a pointer to a text cursor, the submenu disappears.
Can anyone tell me how to prevent that from happening?LICAP Webmaster wrote:

Sorry, but without a link to your online page, it's a time-wasting, error-prone guessing game.
If you put your test page and all dependent files online, and post a link here, we will gladly check that:
Your server is working
That all required HTML code is correct
That your folder hierarchy is correct
That all required dependent files (HTML, CSS, JS, Images etc.) are uploaded to proper folders
That Javascript Versions are correct
That link paths are all correct and case sensitive
Sounds like your submenus may be positioned with a small gap from your top-level links -

'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
*In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
*In previous Firefox versions, click on the Firefox button at the top left of the Firefox window and click on ''Help'' (or click on ''Help'' in the Menu bar, if you don't have a Firefox button) then click on ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, 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, theme, or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps in the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''

Data disappears when a field is added to report
I have a report that uses two files. The first one has a field called "amount code", and the second includes that code field as well as a description of the code.
But when I link that second file to the first one, data disappears when I drag a field from the second file into the report. The first 10 fields in the report are from the first file, and they look fine. But as soon as I drag in any of the fields from the second file, all of the data in the report disappears. (This happens no matter where I drag that field to...data, page headers, etc.)
I'm pretty sure I have the files linked correctly. Can anyone tell my why this happens?
(When I use the either file by itself, things look fine.)
Thanks, JonHi Raghavendra,
I think I have it figured out (or more accurately, our DBA figured it out for me).
The problem is that in the main file, the code field is only one digit long (string). But in the second file (the code description file), that code field is 8 digits long, even though only the first digit has any data (followed by 7 blanks). Therefor CR doesn't see any matches.
It looks like the solution is to truncate the field in the code description file so it's only one digit long instead of 8.
But thanks for the help...I'm clearly over my head, and very much appreciate your assistance.

My bookmarks toolbar in Firefox 10.0.2 Mac OSX 10.6.8 suddenly disappeared. View>Toolbars>Bookmarks Toolbar is checked. Dragging URL's to the bookmarks toolbar area no longer works. The gray area appears and disappears when checking/unchecking under View/Toolbars menu, but will not show any or accept addition of bookmarks.
Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
*Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize"
*Check that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
*If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the toolbar palette in the customize window to the Bookmarks Toolbar
*If missing items are in the toolbar palette then drag them back from the Customize window on the toolbar
*If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up

The gyro no longer works when using the remote app on my iPad. I updated to iOS 7.0.1.
This seem to happen after the update. Any suggestions?Dear Apple friends,
I have the exact same problem with some apps.
Even when I try some websites in Safari and Chrome that require loading big chunks of data they crash.
Today it crashed in two new places. In the notification center and when I opened newstand app I no longer was able to return to the main window and the dock disappeared.
I have my ipad retina for about three months now but latelly this issue has became more frequent. What should I do?
Should I update to the latest firmware and do what raymond73 said?
Is there a fix for this issue?
Has Apple said anything about this? Because I see that this issue is happening to a lot of people.
Is it possible to downgrade to iOS 6?
Is it a firmware problem? That can be fixed in future releases? Or an hardware issue?
Should I wait or go to the place I bought it and try to get the money back? -
Saved passwords keep disappearing when I reboot my MBP
There must be something wrong in my settings........ don't know what it is though...... The saved passwords disappear when I reboot my MacbookPro. I use Firefox 8.0.1
Do you mean names and passwords in the Password Manager or do you mean that you are no longer logged on to (remembered by) websites after closing and restarting Firefox?<br />
There is a difference between remembering the name and password in the Password Manager and a "remember me" check box on a web page.<br />
The latter usually involves the creation of a special "remember me" cookie that is stored on your computer and that is send to the server.<br />
If that "remember me" cookie is removed or gets corrupted or is not send to the server then the server won't remember you and you need to sign in once again.

I have already contacted apple thru email, twice. I don't see that they have an option for a call back for a missing iTunes balance, I did however see where I could get a call back(and did) for not being able to sign in on another device to make a purchase. This problem was resolved quickly for this device. I told this rep about the unresolved problem of the missing iTunes balance and he said he could transfer me but the wait times are very long. In my 2 email correspondences on this missing balance issue both times I was told to check my balance history- which does not resolve the issue that I am having to go thru a huge hassle to get my missing balance back prior to my card purchase. I had a balance of $5.86 show on my ipad2 and on my Mac book pro prior to applying the $25 gift card. Then the balance showed only $25 after apply my gift card, now here's what's weird: aprox. A week and a half later I sign in on my iPod touch and shows a balance of $5.30!, but when it has me resign into iTunes that balance disappeared, and the $25 gift card balance shows up. I made NO PURCHASES to use the $5.86/ or $5.30- so I want my money to equal $30.30/ or $30.86 as it should, and I want to not go thru so much to take care of it. To just hope Apple would have a call back option for this type of issue. I won't be buying iTunes gift cards or purchasing thru iTunes if my balance disappears when I do so.
When you tried to contact Support with the card's images how were you trying to do it, on your phone or a browser on your computer ? And have you tried a different browser to see if you get the same error message ?
As well as images of the card they might also want an image of its receipt.
And to contact Support you were using : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ , and clicked on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then iTunes Cards And Codes ? -
iPhone 6 - I can only send photos in landscape mode via iMessage. The address line disappears when I try to send a portrait mode photo. Gone so far as erasing all content and settings. Problem persists.
Howdy jackbry,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
If you haven’t already, you can try resolving the issue with not being able to send iMessages that contain portrait photos by restoring your iPhone to factory settings as shown in this article:

EXTERNAL HDD NOW DISAPPEARS WHEN USING MY MBP IN CLOSED LID MODE
I have an 15" MBP 2.53 running Snow Leopard, which installed fine. When I go to use it with my Apple 24" Display and my external hard drive, the external HDD disappears when I go into closed lid mode.
The finder freezes too, and I can no longer enter into Time Machine.
The external HDD does show up in disk utility, however.and please ... STOP SHOUTING!
It doesn't make your message any more relevant or increase the motivation to help you. To be honest, it makes you look like a moron, if anything.
