I can't use scrolling in tabs when a PDF tab is open in Firefox 4.

If I have a PDF open in a tab, I can't use my mouse scroll in other tabs until I close the PDF tab. I can scroll fine in the PDF tab. Did not have this problem in Firefox 3.5 (skipped 3.6).

I have this exact same problem! Rather frustrating when you're switching between a PDF and a regular page. :(
I'm on a laptop and using the two-finger drag to scroll. If a PDF tab is open, but my selected tab is not the PDF, when I scroll, it scrolls the PDF and not the page you're on!
I was on 3.6 and this problem was NOT there; it only showed up on FF 4.0

  • I can't use touchpad scrolling in webpage tabs when a PDF tab is open in Firefox 4

    When using Firefox 4, if I have a PDF open in a tab (using the Adobe Reader 9 plugin, whatever the latest update was), I can't use my touchpad scroll in other tabs until I close the PDF tab. I can scroll fine in the PDF tab. This is on a HP laptop, the touchpad is made by Synaptics. Did not notice this problem in Firefox 3.6.

    I have this problem and have found a bug:
    https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=626813
    If you have this problem, please comment on the bug with your OS version (Windows 7 64-bit, for example, or Windows XP, 32-bit) and who makes your touchpad (Device Manager -> Mice -> "Touchpad Maker" Touchpad).

  • Can't easily scroll through pages when reading PDF documents

    Navigating PDF documents using ADE is a hard pull.  I can't scroll up or down pages unless I click the scroll bar, which is especially frustrating as I have a touchscreen laptop but can't use the touchscreen feature to scroll when using ADE.  Neither can I use the directional keys to scroll except on the rare occasion that strangely enough the directional keys allow me to scroll up and down the page using them.  This is always a very temporary situation.  Can anyone help me to solve this annoying problem?

    Hi,
    Try force quitting the mail app.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on top of iPad for a few seconds until a red slider appears, then press and hold the Home button until the application quits.
    Now restart your iPad.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears.
    Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPad. To turn iPad back on, press and hold the Sleep/Wake until the Apple logo appears.
    After that, the rest of the pages also take al ong time load up.
    Launch iTunes with your iPad connect to your computer. Select the Summary tab. Make there's enough free storage space at the bottom of the Summary window.

  • When a pdf file is opened in a tab, the automatic scroll function from the pad does not work in the other tabs, but only for the particular PDF tab.

    The scroll function from the pad/mouse does not work for the other tabs when a PDF file is opened.

    Hi NSHS,
    Have you checked to see if your PDF add-on is up to date? You should take a look at the [[Opening PDF files within Firefox]] Knowledge Base article. There is a lot of good information in there. You should try both of the suggested PDF add-ons to see if that fixes the issue.
    Hopefully this helps!

    Mozilla has nothing to do with a Microsoft product activation key.
    That "test" page should be viewed in Internet Explorer and not with Firefox, as it may use ActiveX which isn't compatible with any Mozilla product.

    I am in the UK. Can I use the iPad Mini when on holiday in Sri Lanka?

    Sure.  Wifi is wifi the world over, so you can use any free wifi you can find at hotels, restaurants, and so forth.
    If you have a wifi+cellular iPad mini, you can use a SIM card from a local carrier if there is one there that offers iPad data plans.

  • Can i use any wireless printer when using air express

    can i use any wireless printer when using air express

    If you are looking for a new printer, any wireless model will work with the AirPort Express.
    But, since you indicate that you have an iPad, you would want to make sure that the printer you choose is AirPrint compatible. This way, you will be able to print from your iPad....if you need that function.
    See this Apple support document for info on AirPrint and compatible models.

    Right Windows can Not read Mac formatted drives.
    If you want to use that drive on both systems you will need to use some other format then Mac Extended (Journaled). Something like Fat32 or exFAT. Or since it is already partitioned just use the Windows partition on Windows.
    Of couse you can try using one of those add-on programs that allows Windows to read Mac drives.

    There's a whole lot to read in your post, and frankly I have not read it all.
    Having said that, this troubleshooting guide should help:

    In particular, pay attention to the mobile device support sections near the bottom, assuming you have already done the items above it.

  • Can I use preview to export multiple page PDF as jpegs?

    Using Preview, I export multiple page PDF as jpeg and results are the first page only as jpeg. Can I use preview to export multiple page PDF as jpeg for every page?

    Automator is great for this if you need to export many pages to JPG, or just have to do this often.
    Two other quick and dirty way sto get it done:
    (1) Enable thumbnail view, click on the ONE PAGE you want to convert to jpg, then choose "export." If you choose more than one page, only the first will get exported to jpg.
    (2) Create a copy of the file, delete all the pages except the one you want to export to JPG, and export that page. You may be able to "undo" the delete, get all your pages back again, and re-delete all but the one you want to export, etc. I would not recommend doing this on the original version of the file because of Preview's autosave so-called "feature."

  • If I have a PDF open in a tab, I cannot use scroll on any webpage until I close any open PDFs. Why is this happening?

    For some reason when a PDF is open I cannot scroll on any webpages on other tabs. It seems that the scroll becomes linked with the PDF until ALL PDF tabs are closed. I have Adobe Acrobat X installed.

    Couldn't it also be the way Mozilla processes things which differ from IE? It works every time I use the IE engine add on which tells me that either Mozilla is processing things differently or that IE is doing something different. I've heard that IE doesn't always follow the same HTML standards that Mozilla does. Could this be the difference and would it be something that Mozilla could change to process the same as IE?
