How can I customize window size and have it stay that way? It automatically maximizes the moment I click anywhere on the page.

I have added a large widescreen monitor and now have a two-screen set up. This taxed my old video card, so we replaced that, too. Then I updated Firefox. Now my window automatically maximizes. "Restore" is the same size as "Maximize", and I can resize it if I carefully drag and drop all four corners. But if I click on the top bar to relocate the resized window, it re-maximizes. I can't find any options or settings that allow me to fix the window size, lock a customized window size, etc. IE8 is not doing this, so I don't think it's the monitor or desktop settings.

Window sizes and positions are stored in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/localstore.rdf localstore.rdf] in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder].<br />
<br />
Delete localstore.rdf or rename the file to localstore.rdf.sav in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder] to test if the file is corrupted.<br />
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Corrupt_localstore.rdf<br />
(caution: do not delete the localstore.rdf file in the Firefox program installation folder)<br />
<br />
Note:<br />
Deleting the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/localstore.rdf localstore.rdf] will reset the customizations of the toolbars to the defaults.<br />
You can rename "localstore.rdf" to "localstore.rdf.sav" to test if that solves it.<br />
Then you can restore the customization by copying "localstore.rdf.sav" to "localstore.rdf" if it didn't work.

    By default Firefox opens a blank page for a new Tab, there is no setting to change that action without installing an add-on.

    how can i remove windows 7 and reinstall a fresh copy of windows 7

    Assuming you installed Windows in a Boot Camp partition, start up Boot Camp Assistant and select the menu item to remove Windows and return the drive to a single partition. Then run Boot Camp Assistant and select the menu item to install Windows 7.

  • My contacts and whats app messages are shown on my sister's iphone! How can I secure my iphone and have a high level of security and privacy! Her Contacts are shown in my iphone as well!!

    I have and iphone 6 with iOS 8.1. My contacts and whats app messages are shown on my sister's iphone! She have iPhone 6 and and iOS as well. How can I secure my iphone and have a high level of security and privacy! Her Contacts are shown in my iphone as well! Setting in mac and iphone are a bit presice and sensitive. Is there any way to solve my issue and increase the safety, security and privacy in my iPhone and its data?

    Your problem is that she used your icloud ID to connect to icloud and thus had all your data synced to her device.  Contacts are not saved in a backup to icloud, since they are stored independently in the Contacts section of icloud.  If someone deletes them, they are gone.  If you had them on the PC would they be available in some backup you frequently make of the PC?

  • How can i uninstall Windows 7 and remove the partition?

    how can i uninstall Windows 7 and remove the partition?  white unibody late 2009.  i cannot seem to find bootcamp either :/

    Open the Boot Camp Assistant in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder and use it to restore the drive to a single partition setup. If it's not there, use Pacifist to extract it from your install DVD and run the combo updater for your OS version.

  • HT4818 I have installed bootcamp that worked properly.  Then I have partitioned the OS X 10.8.2 and installed another OS X 10.8.2 and I have got two MAC boot options and Bootcamp disappeared from the Option menu. How can I boot Windows again and keep both

    I have installed bootcamp by the bootcamp assistant and worked properly.
     Then I have partitioned the OS X 10.8.2 and installed another Mountain Lion System and I have got two MAC boot options and Bootcamp disappeared from the Option menu. However, Bootcamp still remained in the Startup Disk in the System Preferences. When I tried to boot Bootcamp using the Startup Disk it did not boot and received a message that there is no bootable device. I have not lost any data and can read Bootcamp partition from both OS X systems. Please advise how can I boot Windows / Bootcamp again? Thank you. 

    Recommendation 1: Use a VM for this. It's essentially a giant C.F. to do this with native booting, and is potentially fragile.
    But if you're going to ignore that and do this anyway, realizing that it can break anytime in particular with OS upgrades, and that it's very difficult to impossible to resize the three volumes once you've installed the systems:
    1. create three partitions, setting each to be the size for OS X copy 1, copy 2, and Windows respectively. The Windows partition needs to be set to MS-DOS format (actually FAT32) which later in the Windows installer you'll reformat as NTFS. Do not use Boot Camp Assistant to resize/partition the disk, it simply won't work for this use case.
    2. install OS X copy 1
    3. install OS X copy 3
    4. Use gdisk (available at sourceforge) which is a command line only application, to create a new hybrid MBR adding only the last partition (Windows) to the hybrid MBR and setting it to be bootable. As a concequence you will not be able to see/share either OS X volume from within Windows. The Windows NTFS volume will be visible from within OS X.
    5. Install Windows to the only partition its installer should see (confirm size), you'll need to format it NTFS first, and I suggest using the fast format option if available.

  • When I create a shortcut to a web page from FireFox to the desktop, how can I force Firefox to open from it when I.E. is default and has to stay that way?

    I have a customer that likes to use Firefox browser and does for all they can. Unfortunately they have to also us I.E. with some of their business companies so their browser is set to I.E. by default and must stay that way. Tried changing default for brevity we will just say opened to many other problems. SO, is there a way to create a short cut to the desktop from Firefox and force that shortcut to open with Firefox and not with the default browser IE?
    Thanks,
    Mark

    Hello,
    You can create a new Firefox shortcut on the desktop and add the website address after Firefox. For example:
    Under the shortcut tab, the target could read:
    * "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" "www.google.ca"

  • TS2972 apple tv can't sign in to iTunes Store until the network time has been set. this is an Apple generated message. what does it mean? how can i fix it? very very very simple questions but there is no reasonable answer from Apple anywhere on the intern

    this is an apple generated message. simple!
    what does it mean? so far no one at apple has a clue.
    how do i fix it? nothing even begins to address this issue so far. generalities about system setup show a lack of respect for customers. yes my system is plugged in and i have reset and rebooted and rechecked everything. i need help because this a real problem that needs a real solution, not more platitudes.
    help please, not more wasting of my time. i have spent an entire afternoon on this already.

    this is exactly the kind of response i expected, almost begged support to please not do this to me and yet there it is another meaningless, non helpful, standard template response to restart my apple tv.
    this does NOT work which is why i am contacting you. i have tried all suggestions about unplugging and restarting and nothing works.
    i live in an apartment and logon to the provided wifi wireless. so i do not have access to a router. however, management says they have talked with their provider and have been assured that the required ports are available.
    remember all the jokes about how bad windows was because the solution was always to re boot. funny huh? how is apple any different.
    i have been to the local apple care store and they are clueless, too.
    should we just end it here and you admit that i will not be getting any support from apple on this one? i got the ipad because my kids were such big fans. it is difficult for me to share their enthusiasm.
    at this point i am just curious about how you say you cannot support your own product so i can complete my file on this contact.
    thanks...sorry it was you who got this problem..

  • How can I install Windows 7 on a 2011 MBP that doesn't have an optical drive?

    I've looked at a bunch of guides for the MBA and the new RMBP, but they all say that there's a point in the Bootcamp setup that I should be prompted to create a bootable USB installation drive for Windows 7 from a Windows 7 ISO.  I don't see that option anywhere in the Bootcamp setup, and it makes me think that's something that only shows up for Macs that officially don't have optical drives.
    I have Lion running off of an SSD in the main drive bay and I have a large HDD in the optical bay.  I want Windows installed on a partition of the HDD in the optical bay.

    I think you can create Windows partitions on drives other than the startup drive.  At least, the Bootcamp setup didn't seem to prevent me from doing so.  I can get as far as creating the partition, but then Bootcamp expects a Windows CD/DVD to proceed.  I have one, but I don't have a drive.  I've tried attaching USB drives, but Bootcamp won't install from USB connected optical drives, apparantly.

  • PDF form column has dollar amount how can I line up numbers and have auto calculate?

    PDF file has columns that have dollar amounts.  I can not get it to line up or add up automatically.

    Line up: In Form Edit mode, select the fields, then right-click one of them and select Align, Distribute or Center and then one of the Align options.
    Auto-calculate: Again, in Form Edit mode, right-click a field and select Properties. Go to the Calculate tab and you'll see various options. The first one is the easiest to use for simple calculations. The other ones require more detailed instructions.

  • HT2499 How can I watch a movie and have two subtitle tracks at once?

    How can I watch a DVD using Mountain Lion's DVD player with multiple subtitle tracks, such as english and chinese, simultaineously?

    This will depend on the media player. I do not believe DVD Player in OS X offers this, and don't think even versatile players like VLC or MPlayer support it. Most give you the option for one subtitle track at a time.
    One option is to use a transencoder like Handbrake to rip the DVD and "burn in" one of the subtitle tracks but include the others. This way the burned in one will always display, and you can then enable the second one. It's a bit of a workaround, but will ultimately do what you're looking for.

  • How can you use one image and edit it three different ways to export later?

    I am a new Lightroom 3 user.  How can use the same image and edit it multiple ways to produce mulitple images to later export?  For example,  I have a picture of a bride and groom.  I want to use that image and create a color image, a black and white image, and a close up of their hands.

    Do I need to do either of those options before I start editing the image at all?  For example,  what if I am working on the image and doing some creative edits.  Then I think of another option that I could do.  Is it too late at that time or can I still get the original image to begin with?
