I always have to hit Control + 4 times to make all pages large enough to read and want to lock this size in on startup.

Every time that I bring up FF on my 14" laptop, the page display is too small to read easily. I can go to (View) and "zoom" 4 times or hit (Control +) 4 times to give me a good sized page. I would rather have a (Option) choice that would save my personal setting for normal screen zoom for future uses of FireFox.

The Firefox Page Zoom feature does a domain by domain level of saving the users preferred zoom level settings, there is no default Page Zoom level setting in Firefox.
Try the Default FullZoom Level extension: <br />

    I'm using the Motorola Atrix smart phone with the Laptop Dock. When I open a web page with Firefox I have to hit "Ctl +" three times to make the page fill the screen. Is there any way to set up the Firefox browser to open the web pages the right size in the first place?

  • The bookmarks listing on my laptop is so narrow I can't distinguish among several bookmarks that have similar names. How do I make the bookmarks large enough to read details on, either on the sidebar or the drop down menu?

    What kind of details do you need? I have a bunch of bookmarks imported from Safari (yes, it's a Mac iBook). In Safari I get a whole page for bookmarks and can see easily which one is which. In Firefox they are stuffed into a narrow space I can't seem to widen and I can't tell a bunch of them apart. The categories are fine because they are one word or two, the specific listings however, are not fine. In one particular category they start the same way, so I have a whole bunch of nearly identical bookmarks and the "abbreviated" listing is not sufficient since it doesn't seem to include the distinguishing features. That's pretty much it. This isn't a problem for all bookmarks, just some. I need to make the window wider so I can see more detail and can't figure out how to do it.
    Thanks, Carol.

  • How do I make the pages larger with firefox? I like to use this but text is was to small. So I always go back to internet explorer. HELP

    I don't have any tool space on the top of the page. only home and favorites google too. I also don't have to bottom where I can press to get to my programs. I do like firefox. But the text is way to small. How do I fix these things?

    Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: Command+Shift+F).
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/how-to-use-full-screen
    If you are in full screen mode then hover the mouse to the top to make the Navigation Toolbar and Tab bar appear.
    Click the Maximize button (top right corner of the Navigation Toolbar) to leave full screen mode or right-click empty space on a toolbar and choose "Exit Full Screen Mode" or press the F11 key.
    You can use an extension to set a default font size and page zoom on web pages.

  • I have a 17" computer, and I'dlike to use the entire screen to view, but in order to do so, I have to press Control + several times at each site.

    I have a 17" computer, and I'dlike to use the entire screen to view, but in order to do so, I have to press Control + several times at each site. I don't want to use "full screen."
    Does anyone know how to set a default to maximize the screen? For some reason, the screen appears even smaller than my old 15" computer.

    Yes, it's a hassle to zoom every single site manually. You can "zoom" all sites using this add-on: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2592/ NoSquint]. After setting your Global zoom level, you can still fine-tune the zoom on individual sites.
    After installing NoSquint, click the % on the Add-on Bar to call up site preferences, then click the Global Settings button, then the Zooming tab.
    If you don't have the Add-on Bar displayed, you can right-click the new tab button ("+") or a blank area of the tab bar to the right of it and choose Add-on Bar from the shortcut menu.
    You can experiment with sizes larger than 125%, but I wouldn't go much higher than 150% unless you have a large high-resolution monitor.
    If there are particular sites that still present a problem, feel free to post their URLs.

  • Have to hit control alt delete to get cursor to move

    When I open Firefox I have to hit control alt delete then ESC to perform any key function. I'm good for one operation and then I have to hit control alt delete again to unlock things. This does not happen with Internet Explorer.

  • When creating a new window in safari, using command T, the marker have not activated the search field. It means you have to click there every time. Changed after upgrading to Mavericks. Anyone knows how to change this?

    When creating a new window in safari, using command T, the marker have not activated the search field. It means you have to click there every time. Changed after upgrading to Mavericks. Anyone knows how to change this?

    Yes, you can do something like that. What you would do is create a button for each image and then hide them. When I do this type of thing I place all of the buttons on a template page and then hide the template.
    You can then use JavaScript to copy the icon from any of the hidden buttons to the main button that you've set up to display the image. For example, suppose you set up 10 buttons named b1, b2, b3, ...b10. The code to copy the icon from one of them to the button used to display the image (b0) would be something like this:
    // Get the icon from the b3 button
    var oIcon = getField("b3").buttonGetIcon();
    // Get  reference to the b0 button
    var f = getField("b0");
    // Set the icon of the b0 button to the icon retrieved from the hidden button
    f.buttonSetIcon(oIcon);
    // Show the b0 button
    f.display = display.visible;
    This code would go in the Mouse Up event of the smaller button.

  • I've installed iPhoto11 and when opening for the 1st time it says that needs to upgrade my library and it is doing this since yesterday. Is this right??

    I've installed iPhoto11 and when opening for the 1st time it says that needs to upgrade my library and it is doing this task since yesterday. Is this right??

    No. Quit and try again. If that fails again,
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • Firefox tells me that it has prevented my Internet provider program - Earthlink, from uploading as it is starting up, and I have to hit ALLOW mult times.

    I do not want Firefox to keep Earthlink.net from populating all of my Home page. Currently I have to hit the Allow button multiple times every time I open my home page to get all the parts of it updated.

    To make sure, does this also happen after you restart and disable the antivirus toolbars temporarily?
    Also, on the popup that you click on, is there a check box option to "Remember this for next time"?

  • I recovered my back up via a wired connection. now Time Machine does not recognise older back ups wirelessly and wants to do a first back up

    I recovered a back up from my time machine via a wired connection after getting the 'white screen of death'. Now Time Machine does not recognise any back ups on the time machine when connected wirelessly and wants to do a first back up of the whole machine. How do I get my mac to recognise these older back ups? It connects to the wifi network the time machine creates fine, with the same name and password.

    I recommend the following.
    1. Reset the TC to factory.
    Universal Factory Reset.. any model TC or AE.
    Unplug your TC/AE from power or turn off at the power point.
    Hold in reset. and power the TC/AE back on..  all without releasing reset and keep holding in for about 10sec. (this is often difficult without a 2nd person or a 3rd arm).
    Release it when the status light flashes rapidly. If it doesn’t flash rapidly you have missed it and try again.
    Note..
    Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel..  add no more pressure after that.
    TC/AE will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations of the router.
    No files are deleted on the hard disk in a TC.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.
    2. Rename the TC to SMB standard.
    That means short names.. 2-20 characters but less than 10 is excellent. eg TCGenx (use number for x that is actual generation of the TC)
    No spaces.
    Pure alphanumeric. No apostrophe.
    3. Ensure IPv6 is set to link-local..
    Do the same thing for ethernet if that is used.
    4. Manually mount the TC disk in Finder.
    Use Go in the top menu.. connect to server.
    Type in
    AFP://TCname.local (where TCname is your new short name for the TC and local is default domain .. it helps using the domain I found).
    You will then find the computer either can or cannot find the network resource.. if it fails something else is wrong with the actual network and you will need to fix that.
    It will request the password if it is found.. password is public by default unless you changed it.. type in the password and check to keep it in your keychain.
    5. Delete current TM setup and redo it with the newly named TC.
    See A4 here. http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
    If your backups cannot be found, try B6 again, now that you actually know that the disk has been properly discovered.

  • Answers When I click on all pages it is very slow and sometimes times out

    we have a report that returns 127,000 rows quickly and displays 25 at a time. i can click on next page and it is quick to display the next page but if I click on all pages it takes forever or times out. Any Suggestions? Thanks, Rodney

    These reports are coming from our old system and they want to recreate them.if I had a penny for every time I'd heard that , I'd probably have, well, at least five pence now ;-)
    but seriously, this is the classic problem of using a tool for what it's not.
    google around a few of the BI blogs, I've read several articles recently along the lines of "top 5 reasons BI systems fail; #1: recreating reports from an old system with a new tool like-for-like". it's a common problem, and a serious one if you want to deliver a top-notch system that's actually going to be useful and value for money.
    do you have any clout to work with the users to understand what they need out of the system and demonstrate how it could be better for them to do it a different way?
    failing that, dump IE and go FireFox or Chrome. We have a similar browser issue here and in testing I've done IE blows (esp IE7; IE6 and IE8 not so bad) when reports get big.
    Also if they're using nav links in each cell, cut those out, that might help the render time.
