How do i make the arrow scrolling go back to previous versions of firefox (arrow keys are scrolling to much)?

As I tend to use the arrow keys to scroll on my laptop as it is to hard to do it with the mouse. I like to be able to go one line of text at a time. When i updated to Firefox 10 i started to scroll 3 lines at a time. So i was wondering if there was anyway i can change it one line scroll or whether i should roll back a version?

I do not know of a way to do that. You can only set the scroll amount for the mouse wheel via the <b>mousewheel</b> prefs on the about:config page, but you can't do that for the keyboard navigation keys.

  • How can I make the playback buttons of YouTube and other plug-ins bigger since they are so tiny?

    How can I make the playback buttons of YouTube and other plug-ins bigger since they are so tiny in Firefox? I tried some suggestions that dealt with entering "about:config" in a fresh browser, but to no avail. I also downloaded an add-on called "Theme Font & Size Changer", but that didn't work either. So, I am reaching out here as that was a suggestion that another user here offered.

    Ah, yes- that is an ultra high DPI (dots per inch) display. This is a known issue in Flash Player, which Adobe is working on fixing.
    In the mean time, you can get some videos to have normal-sized controls by switching Youtube to the HTML5 video player:
    In Firefox, go to https://www.youtube.com/html5 and click the "Request the HTML5 player" button.

  • Is there a way to make the arrow keys scroll through a page (webpage or other)? Lately, it seems to go right from the top of the page to the bottom, skipping everything in between.

    Is there a way to make sure the arrow keys scroll through a page rather than jumping from the top to the bottom?

    It is kind of strange that the files are not being overwritten. If you publish to a local folder and upload with an FTP app you should be able to set this to over write the old files.

  • I am frustrated with how my cursor jumps around while typing.  How can I make the arrow follow the cursor so this doesn't happen?

    Macbook Pro with OSX Yosemite:  I am frustrated that when using Word for Mac, the cursor keeps jumping around all over the page.  How can I make the pointer follow the cursor so this stops?

    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.

  • How can I make the Smooth Scrolling option in the Advanced menu apply ONLY to the tab bar?

    So, I'm one of those people who usually have 60+ tabs open at any given time. I'm also on a Lenovo laptop with a trackpoint (that may be relevant later).
    Right now, I have smooth scrolling disabled.
    In previous versions of Firefox, if I sat my cursor on the tab bar and scrolled either up or down, it would scroll across my tab bar at a constant, quick rate, usually taking about two or three seconds to reach the end. This wasn't an animated scroll (I've disabled that animated scroll via about:config in the current Firefox version).
    However, now, it's doing something different. There's acceleration to the scroll. If I just tap the scroll in either direction, it scrolls only a few tabs. However, if I hold the scroll for a second, it instantaneously takes me to the far end of the tab bar, completely skipping at least thirty tabs in between.
    I have tab scroll buttons added by Tab Mix Plus (smooth scrolling is also not enabled in that addon), and the same accelerating behavior occurs there. One or two taps of the button moves the bar a few tabs to the left or right, but several taps in quick succession takes me all the way to the far end of the bar.
    I can restore the old scrolling behavior for the tab bar by turning on smooth scrolling in the Options > Advanced menu, but that turns on smooth scrolling for web pages at the same time. I don't like the web page smooth scrolling, and would rather not have it on.
    Or if there's any other way to make it so that scrolling the tab bar moves the tab bar a fixed amount no matter what, that would be great.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

  • How can I make the page scroll when highlighting

    I can only highlight to the bottom of the screen. Then I have to take that and paste it. Then I have to go back and highlight the rest and take it to be pasted.

    hello missdeezy, when i try this the page is scrolling further automatically when i get towards/beyond the bottom of the page with the mouse pointer - alternatively scrolling with the mousewheel, the arrow-key & the page-up/down-key works during text selection.
    in case this doesn't work for you, you may try to launch firefox in safe mode and see if you can replicate this behaviour there? if not, maybe an addon is interfering...

  • How do I get the arrow keys to move one character at a time in the address bar or search box?

    I can no longer get the arrow keys to advance or retard "one character at a time" in the address bar, the search box, or on any form in Firefox. This feature works in other browsers without a problem. The "Home" and "End" keys do not work either. How do I fix this behavior?

    How do I configure the AX to connect to the hub's wireless network? It will only scan one base station Airport Express at a time in the Airport Utility. I think what I am trying to do is use the hub as a router to the two AX's. Is there a specific way to set this up?
    To set up the AX to join a wireless network as a "Wireless Client," using the AirPort Utility, either connect to the AX's wireless network or temporarily connect your computer directly (using an Ethernet cable) to the Ethernet port of the AX, and then, try these settings:
    Launch the AirPort Utility.
    Select the AX.
    If not already connected to the AX's wireless network, go ahead and switch to it when prompted.
    AirPort Utility > Select the AX > Manual Setup > AirPort > Wireless
    Wireless Mode: Join a wireless network
    Network Name: <type in the network name/SSID of the wireless network that you want to join or select it from the pop-up menu>
    Wireless Security: None OR, if you are using security on your wireless network:
    Wireless Security: <Select the appropriate level of security for the existing wireless network: WPA/WPA2 Personal | WPA2 Personal>
    Password: <enter your wireless network security password>
    Verify Password: <re-enter the same security password>
    Click Update to write the new settings to the AX.

  • How do I correct the arrow keys to change from lower case to higher case

    The arrow ,   shift key,  will not allow me to change from upper to lower case letters when in I Tunes.    the arrow keys seem to work in every other application.  I cannot properly enter a password  to enter I Tunes.  I reset the password from my note book and the password works.  only the I pad and I tunes are giving me fits.
    charliecache

    the pop-up box comes up just as you said. i then type in the corrected artist's name. i click 'ok', expecting the updated info to appear on the main iTunes library list
    As you have discovered, changing the info on the CD after you have RIP'd it will not change any of teh songs you RIP'd.
    If you select the CD in iTunes and update the info before you RIP the songs, they will go into iTunes with this new info.
    In addition, the CD will display this info if/when you reinsert it into this computer.
    If you only change the RIP'd songs in iTunes, they will display the updated info but if you reinsert the CD, it will display the previous info.
    Best way to do it is to rename the files on the CD before you RIP.

  • I downloaded firefox 3.6.13 and now when moving through sites it will unexpectedly not be able to load a page within a site. How do I fix this problem or revert to a previous version of firefox?

    The first few sessions Firefox seemed to be running great with improved speed. Yesterday, when I opened Firefox it could not open my homepage even though I checked for my internet connection ... my email service was working perfectly. I rebooted the computer and started Firefox and the homepage opened fine. I then visited an online newspaper site opened from my bookmarks. I was able to read one or two articles on different pages, but then when I selected another page in this site, Firefox was not able to access it (just keep trying to make a connection to the page). I restarted Firefox and went into an online banking site, again through a bookmark. Again after successfully accessing several different pages in the site Firefox was unable to connect to a requested page.
    Later in the day I restarted Firefox, entered the banking site and successfully completed my transaction. Visited several other sites and had no problems, then again Firefox could not load a page.
    This problem has continued today when looking at the online paper.
    I would like either a fix to this problem, or to return to the previous version of Firefox.

    Google Toolbar Options, in the Search tab, make sure that '''Enable the Google new tab page''' is check-marked. If that doesn't fix it for you, see this for support information about the Google Toolbar. <br />

  • How can I go back to previous version of firefox cause 4 sucks and I am going to have to go back to internet explorer?

    This version is horrible, and I want to downgrade back to previous version if I can't then I am going back to internet explorer, the search engine is an aberration...just trying to perform a search for hotmail sign in page and had to click on have a dozen responses before I find the one I want where before was right there at the top. If I cannot go back to a previous version, just tell me so I can start using internet explorer, it is horrible as well but at least search engine was not as frustrating to use!!!!

    To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
    You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
    To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.

  • I hate version 4, tell me how to get back to previous version of Firefox or I'm going to IE !!!

    Version 4 is awful, I hate it and will NOT use it.

    Firefox is highly customizable and you may be able to customize it to meet your needs.
    If you do not like the new UI, you can make Firefox 4 look and behave more like Firefox 3.6, for details see http://www.computertechtips.net/64/make-firefox-4-look-like-ff-3-6

  • I have a Belkin bluetooth keyboard attached to my Ipad 3. I would like to know if there is any way to have the arrow keys scroll down when browsing web pages?

    I just got my Ipad 3rd generation a few days ago and for my case I got the bulky BELKIN Bluetooth keyboard. I notice that when I press down the arrow keys it does not seem to scroll down when searching a web browser or looking up web pages. However it works fine when scrolling down on office apps such as Pages. I'm wondering if is there a way to make the arrow keys on the keyboard scroll down when on an internet web page like my Mac does.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Arrow keys are disabled

    A few months back my wife spilled tea on the arrow keys. My powerbook G4 would continuously scroll. I found a way to disable the arrow keys so they no longer function which stopped the scrolling problem. However, I cannot figure out how to re-enable the arrow keys ???
    Any help in getting the arrow keys enabled again would be great.

    Hello canmore32,
    First of all, Welcome to the  Discussion Forums!
    A few months back my wife spilled tea on the arrow keys.
    It may be simple as cleaning the affected arrow keycaps.
    If you have not attempted to remove the affected keycaps, to clean/replace, a good How To can be found at:
    How to Replace a Key on My Powerbook G4
    It sounds as if they are just gummed up due to the tea spill. Keep in mind you will need a gentle touch so as not to break the keycaps but you should be alright if you read the How To carefully and follow the instructions. There are many How To's that can be found online by searching for "repair keycaps (or insert "clean" instead) PowerBook G4" or similar using a search engine such as Google etc.
    If your arrow functions still do not work you may need to replace keyboard in your PowerBook.
    You, of course, will need to re-enable the arrow functions that you disabled originally, after your have followed the How To.
    Good luck,
