I can't highlight entire sentences or paragraphs by triple clicking....?

I am trying to get someone to help me but all the mods keep disappearing from my threads.
Please can one of you guys help me....?
I have tried setting the about:config (triple click) as well as resetting Firefox, I have also uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it and it still does not do anything...
Do any of guys know anything that I can do to fix this.
Please I'm just asking you guys for some technical support and trouble shooting tips to fix this problem..
And everytime I try something that doesn't work you guys simply disappear......

hello dan, this is a support forum and not a live chat were you could expect instant replies. please stay with your original question, since posting the same issue over and over again will make it harder to keep track of what has already been suggested to you & to offer different troubleshooting steps: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/961362

In IE, triple clicking will select an antire paragraph. In Firefox, double-clicking will select a word, but it stops there. Is there a way to get the IE behavior?

In IE and most Windows apps, double-click will select a word and triple click will select a paragraph. In Firefox on Windows WP, double-click selects a word, but triple click does nothing more.
Is there some way I can get Firefox to select the paragraph?

Triple-click still works for me in Firefox 6.0.2.
Try the Firefox SafeMode. <br />
''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
# You can open the Firefox 4/5/6/7 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
# Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />

How can i highlight more precisely on adobe reader on my galaxy note 10.1?

So far I am only able to highlight entire sentences but not isolated words and the tutorial is limited.

It could be due to the problem mentioned here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4818976#4818976

How do you highlight a sentence that spans two pages without having to make two notes?

If a sentence starts on one page and continues to the next, how do you highlight the entire sentence without having to start a second note for the second page? I know it's possible because one of my notes is highlighed that way. This seems like it should be a simple thing to do. But I can't figure it out and I can't seem to find any solutions either.

Not sure if it'd make any sense, given the device and software,
but what happens if you could resize the page so that sentence
is in one page, then resize the page back to original size; which
should make both halves of a sentence still retain that aspect?
Just an idea...
Dangerous enough?

How to highlight entire line

I am currently implementing an IDE. I try to highlight entire line(not only text but also following blank field) when users set a breakpoint on that line.
Using Highlighter.addhighlight(start, end, HighlightPainter) only allow me to highlight the text part in the line. I haven't figure out how to do that.
Any helps are appreciated.

one way to highlight a full line or draw a breakpoint
symbol on a particular is to create a custom highlight
painter and override the paint method. If you want to
highlight the full line then use the width from the
JTextArea and only the y coordinate and height from
the view coordinates.
If you would like a breakpoint symbol and a particular
line then just put a drawImage call in the paint method
which draws an icon on that line
I've included some code for custom painter for both
highlighting a full line and rendering a breakpoint
icon.
     private class     SingleLineHighlighterPainter      extends DefaultHighlighter.DefaultHighlightPainter {
               public     SingleLineHighlighterPainter( Color color )
               {     super( color );          }
     * Paints a highlight over a single line.
               * just uses the first point a work around only
     * @param g the graphics context
     * @param offs0 the starting model offset >= 0
     * @param offs1 the ending model offset >= offs1
     * @param bounds the bounding box for the highlight
     * @param c the editor
          public void paint(Graphics g, int offs0, int offs1, Shape bounds, JTextComponent c) {
                    Rectangle alloc = bounds.getBounds();
                         Rectangle area = c.getBounds();
                         try {
                    // --- determine locations ---
                                   TextUI mapper = c.getUI();
                                   Rectangle p0 = mapper.modelToView(c, offs0);
                    // --- render ---
                                   Color color = getColor();
                                   if (color == null) {
                                   g.setColor(c.getSelectionColor());
                                   else {
                                   g.setColor(color);
                    // render using just the y coordinates and height from the initial point
                                   g.fillRect(0, p0.y, alloc.width, p0.height);

          * @param c the editor
               public void paint(Graphics g, int offs0, int offs1, Shape bounds, JTextComponent c) {
                         Rectangle alloc = bounds.getBounds();
                              Rectangle area = c.getBounds();
                              try {
                         // --- determine locations ---
                                        TextUI mapper = c.getUI();
                                        Rectangle p0 = mapper.modelToView(c, offs0);
                                        Image im = ( (ImageIcon) Icons.stopSignIcon ).getImage();
                         // render using just the y coordinates and height from the initial point
                                        g.drawImage( im,0,p0.y+2,null );
                              catch (BadLocationException e) {
                         // can't render
to use these do the following
     DefaultHighlighter dh = new DefaultHighlighter();
          dh.setDrawsLayeredHighlights( false );
          SingleLineHighlighterPainter     dhp = new SingleLineHighlighterPainter(Color.green);
          BreakpointPainter                    bpp = new BreakpointPainter();
          buff.setHighlighter(dh);
          try {
               dh.addHighlight(25, 30, dhp);     // single line highlighter here
               dh.addHighlight(60, 60, bpp);     // add breakpoint highlighter here
               dh.addHighlight(120,120,bpp);     // add breakpoint highlighter here
          catch (javax.swing.text.BadLocationException jst) { };
          buff.setMargin( new Insets( 0,20,0,0 ) );
where numbers used with the addHighlight method are
the location within the model. In this case the
addHighlight( 25,30, dhp ) will highlight the line with
a view location corresponding to position 25 in
the model. So just need to specify any model location
on the line you want to highlight.
Setting breakpoints is the same just need one model
position on the line where you want the image to be
drawn.
Hope that's clear.
Also helps to look at the source code for
DefaultHighlighter.java.

Does Oracle Support Searches with Sentence and Paragraph Proximity?

I have successfully used SENTENCE and PARAGRAPH special groups and the WITHIN operator to search for terms contained within the same sentence and/or paragraph. However, I also need to search for terms that are located within a variable number of sentences or paragraphs of each other. For example, I could search for the term 'dog' and the 'cat' located within 3 sentences of each other. Is this possible in Oracle Text? I have searched the documentation and I can only find the 'near' operator for searching based on word proximity. I cannot find any mention of sentence or paragraph proximity. This is a very important requirement for the system.

Good question. We are trying to duplicate the functionality of an existing system. It was written into the requirements for the new system. I've asked how important this functionality is to the actual users, but we don't have the answer to that question yet. Knowing that Oracle Text does not support this out of the box, we will certainly need to evaluate the importance of this feature and determine whether it warrants some custom development or switching to another search technology.
I've thought about using regular expressions to implement this feature, but I'm guessing that the performance wouldn't be that great and it wouldn't integrate well with other Oracle Text searches. Has anyone else used regular expressions combined with Oracle Text to implement more sophisticated searching capabilities?

How can I highlight Government PDF documents?

The US government publishes Federal Register notices in pdf format. Here is an example of one http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2011-07-11/pdf/2011-17190.pdf. I would like to add comments, highlight text, and maybe even insert and delete pages. However, the government recently added some sort of security feature that prevents this from happening. Can somebody explain what type of security setting this document has, and can it be deleted. It appears to be some sort of certification of a digital signature.

I find it unlikely that if you have a Federal Register announcement, and print it on your personal hard drive as a PDF, and highlight some sentences, so you can personally find the sentences again later - that the federal government would go after you ("in hot water.") Can you actually imagine someone in front of a federal judge and facing fines or prison because he did this? It would be another thing to alter and fake the document and give it to people - saying that "X" is legal when the original regulation said "X" is illegal - but that is not remotely what Kent12317 is talking about.

You can set an iPod Classic to shuffle in a Playlist. Well, my Classic (running 1.1.2 PC) can.
What are you doing after setting shuffle to songs in the Settings menu?
What you need to do is scroll down to the Playlist of your choice and either:
highlight the Playlist and press the Play button (which will play a song at random from that Playlist). When that song finishes, another song will be played - at random - from that same Playlist
enter the Playlist and choose a song that you want to be played first. When that song finishes, another song from that Playlist will be chosen - at random - to be played.
When songs are being played in shuffle mode (the random choice of song), you will see the shuffle icon in the top right corner of the screen. (It's the same icon when in shuffle albums mode.) What happens, that is different, in your case?

Pages works with all other docs, except the one I need to work on. From my downloads folder I can preview the entire file, however whenever I try to open it, i get the "opening" pane filled to ~90% and then the SBBOD. Only file it does this on...help??

From my downloads folder it recognizes the file as a Pages document, I can preview the entire document, but I try to open the file in multiple ways (from right click, to open from preview, from inside pages) and it refuses to open. The "opening" prompt comes up, fills ~90% and then I eventually get the SBBOD. It will fail out if given long enough to think it through or i need to force quit.

Since it has always been very basic to backup your computer and all it's data, Apple provides no way for you to transfer music from your iPhone back to your computer. As you know, you can re-download all iTunes purchases, but music that you ripped yourself you'll have to just re-rip again.
You can try and find 3rd party applications that might help you. I'm sure you'll pay, however.
Let this be a very important lesson learned.
Best.

How can i fix my mac book pro. My safari crashes all the time, my screen will turn black for no reason, My iPhoto crashes during upload from my iPhone, I can't highlight anything and I can't drag anything.

Someone PLEASE help me! I cant figure out what is going on with my computer. I don't install anything weird, but my brother does. He's very good at computer tech stuff and is in I.T, but I cant help but blame him for all the problems my Mac is having. Nothing works like it should. My safari will randomally crash, my screen will randomally turn back, my iphoto will crash during uploading from my iPhone, I cant highlight anything, I can't drag anything. When I want to click on something, I have to click over and over again just for it to even register. I know everything is up to date and recently reset my PRAM. I'm running Lion and have a lot of room on my hardrive. I have an external harddrive and I'm wondering if I should just move all of my important files over to it and completly wipe out my computer's hardrive and start from scratch.

Some folks can't leave well enough alone, and insist on downloading all sorts of additional "stuff" that ends up making their Mac unstable.
Standard Mac OS X on properly-operating Hardware does not crash, unless you start installing too many add-ons.
You can run "just the basics" by holding down the Shift key at Startup. This does one pass of Disk Repair, then loads a minimal set of extensions, and comes up in Safe Mode. If it works OK that way, but crashes in "regular", it's the add-ons.
There ia another layer of add-on junk that can be added to Safari. If the only remaining problem is Safari crashing, those add-ons can be disabled as well.

I'm Just wondering how to make drum beats in garage band using the sounds it comes with? Also how can i use garage band like a drum machine which i can program an entire song part by part????

I'm new to using Garageband and loops with garage band. I just wanted to see if there was a way for me to use the drum sounds provided in garageband to create my own original drum tracks and work with it like a drum machine that i can program an entire song into... any info or tutorials would be a great help.. Thanks!!!

Ah ok, I have a better idea of what you want to do now.
Unfortunately there isn't anything inside GB that can come anywhere close to Acoustica Beatcraft, but there are two tools inside Garageband that can help you do something similar.
First are the built-in keyboards, which will enable you to trigger drum samples with your computer keyboard or mouse. Go to Window -> Keyboard or Window -> Musical Typing. Click with your mouse on the Keyboard or press keys on your computer keyboard with Musical Typing, and you will trigger different drum samples for whatever kit you've chosen for that software track.
Next is the Track Editor: in Piano Roll mode, you can create and see midi notes somewhat similar to the view in this screenshot from AB. On the left side of the Editor, you will see a sideways piano keyboard. When you assign a drum kit to a software track, each of the piano keys corresponds to a different instrument: hi hat, snare, bass drum, etc---you'll have to play them using the on-screen keyboard or musical typing to see what they correspond to. In order to add a MIDI note you hold the CMD button and click with the mouse.
So, if you wanted to add a closed hi-hat hit, you would CMD-click on the Track Editor row corresponding to the closed hi-hat piano key, and then you can drag the MIDI note left & right to change the beat it plays on, or resize the note, which will change its duration.
Or, as you've already observed, you can use Musical Typing to play out a pattern on your computer keyboard while recording, and you will see the midi notes appear in real time in the Track Editor.
Hope this helps, feel free to ask more questions.

Can't highlight, underline, strike through or select text in iOS 7 Adobe Reader

I have enjoyed using Adobe Reader to proofread clients' documents, but since the last two iOS 7 updates I can't highlight, underline, strike through or select text in PDFs generated by the same source that previously presented no problems.
The drawing and insert text functions do work.
I am using an up-to-date iOS 7 iPad 4. The latest Adobe Reader update and a hard reset, as advised elsewhere on the forum, didn't help.
I have read What's New and looked at the Help manual. I am aware of the new long tap to select one word followed by another tap.
What am I doing wrong? Adobe Reader used to work so easily. I won't be paid for the time lost while I try to fix this. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Krissy,
I found it extremely frustrating and I don't have a technically sensible answer for you.
Mine started working again suddenly, but slowly, after many hours of not working, and then improved in speed and responsiveness with use.
The conventional wisdom is to ensure you have the latest update of Adobe Reader first. There has been more than one since the iOS 7 change.
The first time it started working again for me was when I was trying in a pdf that I had previously edited in Adobe Reader before the problem began, where I know all the tools used to work (i.e. no problems caused by the file itself) but it is now also working in the new doc that wouldn't work the other day.
Shradha above gave me the clue that triggered it. I usually go straight to the "Pick a Tool" comment/annotate button in the main/first toolbar at the top, then use the toolbar at the bottom, where the highlight, underline and strikeout tools wouldn't work.
These functions started working when I tried selecting text directly from the first screen that has the toolbar for "View Modes" (an eye), save/export options, "Pick a Tool", share options and search, without selecting any of these options.
So, instead of choosing the Pick a Tool button at the top, try just holding down some text for a while, as if to select it (mine wouldn't even select for a long time) and see if the grey tool menu pops up right above that text.
Initially, I only got the options that were already working to pop up ("Note, Text, Freehand and Signature"). I tried a few different spots in the file and eventually the "Copy/Highlight/Strikeout/Underline/Define" menu popped up. The first time it apppeared was after holding down the text selection action for about 20 seconds, and it didn't appear every time, but then it became quicker and more reliable, and then these functions also started to work from the bottom toolbar that I usually use after choosing Pick a Tool.
Even today, checking that it still works, it was a bit stuttery to start with and then it came good.
Perhaps any of the technically-minded members could explain this or perhaps tell us if there is a difference in the action that is supposed to bring up the "Note" etc versus the "Highlight" etc pop-up menus. I'm stumped.
So try holding down text to select as soon as you open the file, and see if that grey menu will start to appear with the "Highlight" etc options after several attempts. I hope it starts working for you soon.
