How can I prevent the url display from sometimes being overwritten by button icons?

The address in the url bar is sometimes overwritten by a line of button icons, which can overlap onto buttons beside the url display.
Please see a typical display here:

This, I am happy to say, does not happen with every website I visit, but it happens often enough to be a real nuisance.
Here is a list of *some* of the webpages where I have encountered this phenomenon:

http://preview.tinyurl.com/ppp8vog (all tv-series.me pages)

Sure hope that there is an easy solution. I reverted to the Classic Display to work around it, only to find that it didn't solve the problem.

Hello,
That is not normal behaviour and is caused by one of your add-ons. Just to be sure, '''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 turns off some settings, disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
*Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''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.
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".<br>
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow 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.''
Since it will be a hassle to find out which one of your many extensions is the culprit, follow the note in this section of the article: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-extensions-themes-to-fix-problems#w_test-for-faulty-extensions
When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.

  • When inserting a checkbox, how can I prevent the note box from appearing?

    To all,
    After -reluctantly- "upgrading" from Acrobat Pro 7 to Pro X I find this new version absolutely maddening.
    Pro 7's features were easy to find in the tool bar. Now in Pro X everything is "dumbed down" with everything "nested" into each other...
    But I whine and digress from my problem:
    QUESTION:
    When inserting a checkbox, how can I prevent the note box from appearing?
    With every insertion of a checkbox onto a form, a "notebox" appears.
    Thank you,
    Matt

    As you can see, when I add a checkmark to a page/form, a "note" is automatically added also. In my old Acrobat v. 7, this did not happen.
    Any ideas on how I can set Acrobat Pro X to NOT include this note?
    Thank you,
    Matt

    When used as an Activex control in windows How can I prevent the "Q" logo from appearing between streaming videos?

    Hello Cgifford,
    Welcome to National Instruments Forums.
    To output your signal to the PFI lines,
    you can use external connectios between OUT0 and PFI lines. You can also use
    the backplane to do so by routing into the same RTSI line.
    1)
    On the SCOPE and FGEN, the name of the
    terminals are actually “PXI Trigger Line x/RTSIx” but on the 6602 you might
    need to route the signal using the property:
    You can also use the DAQmx route signal which perform the same opperation.
    2)
    This will depend on the frequency of
    your pulse train. If this is lower than about 10 ms, then you can probably
    place this on a loop and start and stop the acquisition every time. If the
    frequency is higher than this, you will have to use:
    -       Scripting on the FGEN side (read more)
    -       MultiRecord Fetch (more information in the scope help file
    section “Acquisition Functions Reading versus Fetching”).
    3)
    The short answer is yes. The longer one
    might depend on how tight you need the synchronization to be (us, ns, ps). For
    very tight synchronization, you should look into here.

  • How can I prevent the timeline palette from opening up in Photoshop CS6?

    I'm upgrading from CS5 and now every time I open a document in Photoshop, the Timeline animation window opens up. I'm on a MacBook Pro 15" and don't need the Timeline. It stills open up even after saving a new workspace with it closed and not even docked. Please help because this is annoying. Thanks.

    Boilerplate-text:
    Are Photoshop and OS fully updated and have you performed the usual trouble-shooting routines (trashing prefs by keeping command-alt-shift/ctrl-alt-shift pressed while starting Photoshop after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved and making a note of the Preferences you’ve changed, 3rd party plug-ins deactivation, system maintenance, cleaning caches, font validation, etc.)?

    How can I prevent a PDF file from being copied, printed or downloaded? Students should only be able to view the text and and not distribute it in any way.

    You can prevent it from being printed by applying a security policy to it
    in Acrobat. The rest can't be prevented, unless you spend  a LOT of money
    on DRM protection.

  • How can I prevent my iPod nano from turning on by itself and running down the battery?

    I will arrive at my desk in the morning, stop the podcast I'm listening to, notice by the "play" button appearing on the screen and that absence of audio in my ears that the podcast has actually stopped, hold the big oval button down until the screen goes dark, and set my iPod down on the desk. Every now and again (maybe twice a week) I'll catch the iPod playing. It's usually off playing music (i.e. it's somehow navigated away from the podcast I've been listenting to and ended up in a music shuffle somewhere), and it will continue playing until the battery runs down or until I happen to notice it and turn it off. Doesn't only happen at work, happens anywhere...home, car. Result is that once or twice a week I go to use the iPod and the battery has completely run down.

    You can install this extension to make it easier to edit userChrome.css:
    * ChromEdit Plus: http://webdesigns.ms11.net/chromeditp.html
    The file needs to have this code:

  • How can i see the URL which has  length more than 255 chars in fucnction

    Hello Every body....
      I am facing one problem....I have a function module which returns URL in one table
      but in the function module display i am able to see only 255 characters,but the URL is more than 255 Characters..How can i see the URL which has the length more than 255 characters..
    In the Table the fields url length is 4000 chars.....
    but display it is showing only 255 chars.....
    Please Help me...??????????

    Hello,
    Have you tried breaking your structure into 255 chunks? I don't know what the structure you are moving from looks like, but you should be able break it back up into the SOLI structure. The end of a line in SOLI doesn't create a Carriage Return/Line Break. You have to insert these yourself like in the following:
    * Create document
          clear mail_line.
          move 'This is a test E-Mail'(d01) to mail_line.
          concatenate mail_line
                      cl_abap_char_utilities=>newline
                      into mail_line.
          append mail_line to l_mailtext.
    What kind of attachment are you wanting to create - a text tab delimited file for reading in a spreadsheet application such as excel? You might try reassembling your data table into a single string with newlines where you need them. Then use function module SCMS_STRING_TO_FTEXT to turn it back into SOLI. This is what I have done in the past. I'm afraid without knowing more about your source structure and attachment type, this is about all I can tell you.

  • How can I find the URL for an iCal calendar in iCloud so I can make a link to it on a web page.

    I have a single iCal calendar that I want people to access through my webpage.  How can I find the URL so that they can view the calendar without having to subscribe to it.  I converted to iCloud from .Mac and I can see that changes to this calendar are not showing up.

    Mmmh.. i see... I don't know wether it is possible for people just check calendars without subscribing to them... I have been sharing some calendars in my website (maybe you can have a look at it in order to check wether it could be a possible solution for you)

  • If I have multiple email accounts, how can I prevent one of them from sending email?

    If set up multiple email accounts in Thunderbird, how can I prevent one of them from sending email, while allowing others to send?

    Simple answer:
    do not use the email address when sending or replying or forwarding emails. Sending is not automatic, you have to generate the email and click on a Send button.
    You could use an smtp server that will not allow sending using the incorrect server for the email address, so that it cannot send, but if you accidentally use the email address you may get an error message, but at least the email will not be sent. Do this here:
    Tools > Account Settings for the mail account.
    bottom right Outgoing Server - select one that will not accept sending using wrong email address
    OR
    in Outgoing Server(SMTP) select the server you are using for that account
    click on 'Edit'
    deliberately make an error in the server name - remove the port details etc.
    So the details are wrong and cannot send.
