How do I disable the "popup blocker" on Firefox 5.0.1 on my Macbook and OS 10.5.8.

I am a realtor trying to access forms on the Calif. Assoc. of Realtors. I received a message saying that I have to turnoff my popup blocker to proceed.

  • Blocking popup windows even when disabling the popup blocker

    For quite some time now, Firefox has been blocking essential popup windows on my computer. It's not just those annoying ones, even those when I am trying to write an email and similar things. I have disabled the popup blocker and it does not change anything at all. It does not alert me that it has blocked anything either, it is simply as if I never clicked anything in the first place. I have tried adding exceptions to my popup blocker, and this does not work either. This is really frustrating and is interfering with my daily use of firefox, and forces me to use crappy explorer which does not block things. What can I do?

    Hi Sachin
    Thank you so much for the reply.
    About your request, the codes that I used are:
    HTML for the PopUp:
    <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
    function popUp(URL) {
    var iMyWidth;
    var iMyHeight;
    //half the screen width minus half the new window width (plus 5 pixel borders).
    iMyWidth = (window.screen.width/2) - (250 + 10);
    //half the screen height minus half the new window height (plus title and status bars).
    iMyHeight = (window.screen.height/2) - (225 + 50);
    //Open the window.
    var win2 = window.open("http://xarao.businesscatalyst.com/caipiroska.html","Window2","status=no,height=450,width=500,resizable=yes,left=" + iMyWidth + ",top=" + iMyHeight + ",screenX=" + iMyWidth + ",screenY=" + iMyHeight + ",toolbar=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,location=no,directories=no");
    win2.focus();
    </SCRIPT>
    For the Link:
    javascript:popUp('http://xarao.businesscatalyst.com/caipiroska.html')
    Of course for all the different links in the page I've changed the http of each image in both codes.

    Thank you once more.

  • How do I disable the plugin check at Firefox Version 18 or higher startup?

    This thread carries on from a discussion about How do I disable the plugin check at Firefox startup? As clearly Tylerdowner did not like my previous message and so would like me to obviously start a whole new thread to find out what’s going on.
    https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/938821
    Tyler: I am still looking for support and so are the other 83 people who have this problem. Hence why I am here, not to have to start another thread, not to have a go at you or just to run around further to get a clear, straight forward answer. I am now back to running Version 12 (which, has not solved the problem), with up-to-date plugins which are all supported.
    Don’t fob us off, PLEASE HELP. Unless I am very much mistaken, this is the place we are meant to find help, right? Not to be completely blown off because somebody says something you don’t like. Perhaps someone better suited to this will help. I’ll follow on from then with MY problem from Tyler’s final comment as it is highly relevant:
    Tylerdowner: Rumor Control, if you are running Firefox 18 with up to date plugins, then you are having a different problem than this thread is about. This is for Firefox 3.6 users who have old plugins, not those with updated software.

    I should also add this info for all to see clear as part of my question (can be seen in More system details too):
    I liked that version, was the first ever FireFox browser I tried and because of it made it my number 1 browser. There have been a heck of a lot from 3.6 to 18 though I think we’d all agree. Progress can and often is messy, but worth it.
    Which is fine except mine, a different version, up-to-date plugins – and I’ve still same problem as these guys. It’s exactly the same even for me who has updated: How do we get rid of the Plugin Check Screen every time we start FireFox? I know I am up-to-date – as it tells me every single time!
    I agree everyone should be up-to-date with the software and this may very well be the case that solves a lot of people with lower versions – yet I can say I updated from version 12 to the latest 18, spent the time getting half a dozen different updates as it wanted (all of which are supported according to the link you provided) plugins and yet I am still having the same problem as users with 3.6 and older plugins! Went back to version 12.0 and I am getting the problem since installing version 18.
    Therefore from the fact I’m still getting the popup every time telling me everything is updated and safe, which is lovely to know, still doesn’t change the fact it won’t go away! Not a major problem but it is getting tedious now every single time.
    Like I say I am willing to wait and see if this gets fixed anyway which to be fair, FireFox seem to do a lot better than the competition. If it doesn’t though I’d still rather go back to an older version just to be rid of it! But not even that is now working to be gone of it! It’s gotten that ridiculous for me now too!

  • How can I restore the popup blocker info bar?

    On the popup blocker info bar (that is normally shown in yellow at the top of the firefox page, I selected the option "do not show info bar". But now, some sites require me to allow the popups and I want to restore the info bar. How do I do that?

    Type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit Enter. <br />
    ''If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.''
    '''Filter''' ''(at the top)'' = '''browser.popups.showPopupBlocker'''
    Double-click that preference to toggle to '''True'''. <br />
    Then restart Firefox.

  • How do I disable the popup "Please describe the image map..." in Dreamweaver CC?

    I've just upgraded from CS6 at work to CC and when drawing image maps it's back to popping up this message:
    The previous solutions I can find (which worked in CS6) do not work here. When I go into my Preferences > Accessibility I only have this option:
    I've tried checking and unchecking Media and restarting Dreamweaver with the same results each time. I'll be going back to CS6 until I can resolve this. I draw a LOT of image boxes, and I do put "alt" labels on them, but having to click okay each and every time is just not practical.  Thanks for any assistance.

    What this message is telling you is that when you insert an image, you should always enter something useful in the alt attribute like this:
    <img src="my_image.jpg" alt="Company Logo">
    I guess this is to help people with sight problems who can use voice synthesizer to read out the page for them.
    Now I don't use CC version so the best way to enter this is by going in the code view and entering these manually.  That is how I normally do even in CS6 or Expression Web 4
    Good luck.

  • How can I disable the sound entirely in Firefox?

    I'm having trouble with my Protools Digi 003 interface which crashes often when a page in Firefox plays a sound (ie Facebook). The ideal solution would be disable sounds entirely in Firefox. How is this done? I've checked the options and there seems to be nothing on this.

    It may be helpful if you indicated the EXACT model/year MBP that you have and the OSX.
    In addition, more details regarding he problems the sound port is causing would also help.
    Ciao.

  • How do I disable the plugin check at Firefox startup?

    Starting in the last day or two, every time I start Firefox, in addition to my homepage, I get a nuisance tab that is checking my plugins. I need to disable this stupid function or I will have to discontinue using Mozilla Firefox after 20 years as a faithful Mozilla user. I am happy with, and have no intentions of upgrading, my version of Firefox (3.6.17). I also have no intentions of upgrading my Flash plugin as newer versions are incompatible with an online activity in which I engage.
    I have followed instructions in the user forum for changing the status of plugins.update.notifyUser from true to false in "about:config", but it apparently resets itself to true. None of the user forum suggestions correct this problem. If this unwanted, stupid tab cannot be disabled, I guess I will have to abandon Mozilla, both for Firefox and Thunderbird, and pursue options that do not force unwanted content on the user.
    In addition, it seems impossible to actually speak to anyone at Mozilla about the problem. So hopefully someone will answer this question with a solution to the problem.

    I have had this problem too. I tried both methods posted by other users and was unsuccessful. It is so annoying that I will no longer be using Firefox. Goodbye.

  • How do I disable the autocomplete function in Firefox 5?

    In Firefox 4 I was somehow able to make sure Firefox did NOT remember everything I filled in on forms (usernames, emailadresses, etc.); now (using Firefox 5) I can only find how to make sure it DOES remember. I want the opposite. How do I do this?

    Turn off Form & Search History. See this: <br />

  • How can I disable the Facebook Notification in Firefox 6 which takes my focal point from what I am typing until I close the notification in the lower right corner.

    When I have Facebook open, I get pop-ups in the lower right corner that tell me that I have new notifications or messages in Facebook. When the little pop-up shows, no matter what I am typing, my cursor is taken away until I click the x to close the pop-up. It is very annoying and slows me down so much. It disables my typing.
    If this cannot be resolved, I will either go back to version 5 or uninstall Firefox completely.

    Do a custom install and install each version in its own program folder to use multiple Firefox versions.

    Create a new profile exclusively for each Firefox version.<br />
    Create a desktop shortcut with -P "profile" appended to the target to launch each Firefox version with its own profile.

  • How do I reverse the latest update to Firefox 4.0? I recently updated and have nothing but problems...nothing works! Click on links with no result, enter web address nothing happens. Please help me downgrade to previous version as this is rediculous!

    Upgrade to Firefox 4.0 has caused nothing but problems. Unable to click links, access websites, etc. How can I downgrade to previous version?

    Check that the Bookmarks Toolbar is visible and that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is still placed on the Bookmarks Toolbar.
    If the menu bar is hidden then press F10 or hold down the Alt key, that should make the "Menu Bar" appear.
    Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
    * Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout" (Linux, Windows)
    * 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 you do not see the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" or other items that are missing in the toolbar palette or on a toolbar then click the "Restore Default Set" button

  • After updating to 4.0.1 (linux, x86-32) the popup-blocker prevents to open links from web-pages, e.g. from google news! Why?

    I just updated to 4.0.1 and since that moment the popup-blocker seems to block even normal links which are opened in a tab in previous versions.
    When I disable the popup-blocker everything works as before (but popups will open of course).

  • How can I disable the shift-click slow motion special effects in Mac OS 10.6?

    How can I disable the slow motion special effects that occur when you do something and hold shift? (By the way, the terminal command doesn't work in 10.6)

    I'd like to know how to do this now too since the terminal command doesn't work in Lion / ML. Anyone know how?
    And Leroy - the reason is because I have custom hot keys configured and the shift key is a key I want to use for this command. I would like to know how to disable the slow motion effect permanently since I never need it and would certainly like to use my shift key as a modifier for various keyboard commands.
