Hide Cursor in Firefox 5

You should be able to change the cursor to transparent mouse icon.
Component.setCursor(java.awt.Cursor),
and

How to hide cursor???

I'm creating a screensawer in Swing. How to hide cursor?? Please, help!

Olessia,
I cannot find a possibility to remove the Cursor (the Cursor type is used to set the cursor, cross_haired etc. as part of a component). It seems if there is no cursor defined or if it is set to null, the systems default cursor will be used.
There is a workaround you can try. If you set the cursor in the bottom right hand corner of the screen, it's not visible (if it's an arrow that is). This is something you can perhaps use in the screensaver. Before the screensaver starts, set the cursor in this corner and store the coordinates that you moved it from. If the cursor is moved, simply put it back before the move is executed.
If you manage this, I'd love to see the code...
regards and good luck,
Jeroen

If you click on the page header (page definition - edit attributes button in v2.0) and then under the display attributes section you will find a focus cursor select list.

Hand cursor in Firefox 4 on Mac

Hi,
I just updated to Firefox version 4.0.1 on my Mac and suddenly no hand cursors are showing up on my application. Has anyone else come across this, and know any workarounds?
Cheers
Eric

Update to Firefox 13 . Firefox 3 and 4 do not show hand cursors properly in the Flash player.

Hide cursor in DVD Player

How do you hide the mouse cursor while in fullscreen mode in DVD Player?

Usually it just disappears after a short time when not moved. I don't why yours is failing to do that.
In iDVD Preferences, tab on Full Screen and see if there is selected Hide controller if inactive for (so many) seconds.
Try and reduce that number to a smaller value.

Mouse Cursor in Firefox 5

Has anyone else noticed that the mouse cursor does change for rollovers on a clickable item, like it should, in Firefox 5? The cursor does change to a pointer, hand, or anything, to give feedback that there is a clickable item you are over.
Workarounds? Knowledge that Firefox is working on this?
Thanks.

When I open Photoshop Elements 9 (sorry, I'm not current to the newest version) I get strange cursor activity with different tools. I used Photoshop Elements on my 2011 MacBook Air with no problems at all. While the italics light grey cursor is a consistent issue on my new MacBook Air, the Photoshop issues seem to differ with the file I am working on. If I have a file open with layers and a transparent background, and I select the text tool, anytime my text tool cursor hits the invisible background, it goes light grey but it turns back to black when it passes over any visible layer. Like in Word, this makes it extremely difficult to see where PSE is going to make a text layer because you can't see where the cursor is.
Another issue on one of the image files, that I wasn't able to recreate because I could remember the file, but when I select eraser, the eraser tool, rather than showing the circle it normally shows so I can see what I'm erasing, it shows up as a strange cross hairs. I know PSE usually shows cross hairs when you move the eraser down to a small point, but it was doing a crosshair when the eraser point size was extremely large. Therefore, I could tell the center point of the eraser, but I didn't know how far out the boundaries of the eraser would go. I kept having to try and if it was too large, I'd undo and try a smaller size.
Anyways, I hope that helps. If I can find the file I was editing and can give more information I will. Thanks again for any help.

Hide button in Firefox

Hi,
I just built a project in RH X5 with a skin that has an image
for the "Hide" button. It works great in IE, but doesn't show up in
Firefox.
Is there a fix for this or is something else that we're
waiting for Firefox to fix with the next version?
Thanks,
Jim

cross-browser compatibility.

Websites would not load unless I move my cursor for Firefox RC

Whenever I load a website, I notice that unless i move my cursor a little, the website would not load. I didnt notice this for previous versions of FF though.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Flashing cursor in firefox after latest update flash 10.2.153.1

after installing the latest update of flash 10.2.153.1 my cursor flashing all the time when i go to webpages that need flash
i use firefox 4 and windows xp sp3. if i disable the plugin my cursor is ok. with the previous version of flash everything was ok

I never heard of cursor flashing (what means flashing - blinking?) with Flash Player; perhaps you can try to adjust the settings?
Anyway, archived Flash Player versions can be found here http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html

Constant "spinning wait cursor" when using firefox 3.6.13 on a MacPro 1,1 2006 with 11GB of memory

After about 1 hour of use I am getting the "spinning wait cursor" in firefox when I do pretty much anything. Scrolling, link hovers, switching tabs, inspecting DOM tags in firebug, typing in textboxes, you name it. This only recently started happening on my MacPro, and has yet to rear its ugly head on my MacbookPro laptop. Not sure if its my RAM or something....regardless, basically makes firefox useless. In fact, im posting this question in Chrome.
Usually when firefox gets slow I run SQLite VACCUUM on the profile databases and it helps. This time, no dice. Basically just unusable.

Do you still have the Feedback (Test Pilot) extension installed (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) ?
If not then reinstall the extension.

Firefox gets problems when 2,7 GB of memory is used by Firefox

Firefox gets problems when 2,7 GB of memory is used by Firefox. Or more. Like 2,8 GB.
It started when I read jpost.com with tens of tabs open. I don't remember how many. But I know there was more than 40.
On the tab I that I was reading, the page turned completely black. Pitch black with nothing else, not even the Firefox interface. It was actually a pitch black shape that looked like a web page in shape. The blackness quickly disappeared and the page was normally readable again. But then it happened again - the page turned black again.
The same page turns black happened again later.
One of my browsing sessions had Firefox slow down so much that you could see scrolling happening when I used scrolling.
Still another time I had 60 tabs open and Firefox worked completely fine without freezes, slowdowns, or black shapes. I could close Firefox by just pressing the red X in the title bar.
Yesterday, I had 50 tabs open and I experienced a slowdown when I looked at the Breaking News headlines. The headlines would show slower than usual. The Breaking News headlines at jpost.com show the headlines a few words at a time until the headline is completely shown. Then the headline disappears and the next starts showing a few words at a time. And speed in general was not what you normally have with a computer that has 8 GB of memory. And a Core i5 processor. I opened two more tabs from the Breaking News section I had opened. After I opened a new window, Firefox froze. I had to close Firefox from the Task Manager by pressing End process. I had used Firefox for 6 hours without ever closing any of the tabs I had opened.
In all of these cases, more than 40 tabs were open. In all of these cases, the slow down or freeze meant I had to use Task Manager and then press End process on the Processes tab. In all cases except the two I describe in the next paragraph, I never close any tabs after opening them. No problems have ever happened until Firefox started using 2,7 GB of memory. Until that point, everything is normal with no freezes or slowdowns.
At two times, I tried to reduce memory usage by closing tabs. However, in both cases this would make Firefox freeze. In one of these cases, Firefox would show something bizarre: there would be about 7 tabs, and one of the tabs would be partly shown. Also, Firefox would show the busy cursor. Firefox did not show how many tabs I actually had. The second time, I tried to close the tabs by clicking Close other tabs in the menu that you get when right-click a tab. The tabs would close fine, but I remember that I opened Gmail and then I did this: I clicked on the Promotions tab. Instead of seeing the tab with the Emails, Firefox showed a busy cursor and the title bar said not responding. Firefox froze.
The reason might be Adblock Plus memory usage. In Adblock Plus home page, developer Wladimir Palant writes in his blog about how Adblock Plus uses a lot of memory: https://adblockplus.org/blog/on-the-adblock-plus-memory-consumption .

One more bit of information: I have a Geforce 640 GT graphics card. My graphics card drivers are old- version 311.41. The newest version of the drivers is 340.52. Would a new graphics card driver solve the problem?

Firefox will not open when I click the icon and windows task manger indicates firefox is running.

I can't open firefox. I click the icon, my cursor shows Firefox is loading, then nothing happens, the screen remains the same.

Hi Iekard.
Press CTRL+SHIFT+ESC to see if the firefox.exe process is running. If it is, terminate it and try to run Firefox again.
If that doesn't help, try running Firefox in safe mode. If it works like that, maybe it'll work again in normal mode.
