I cannot use my arrow keys to navigate in the text using firefox 4.0 beta fo mac OSX. Is this a setting I can change somewhere?

Also the tab key ti jump from one form window to the next to fill them in, does not work anymore.
It is especially annoying typing emails using webmail. I can only navigate trough the text using my mouse.
I am sorry to post in here but I was not able to give feedback on the blog. Maybe I need to be logged in??

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See:
* [https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

  • Using Firefox 3.6.13 on Mac OSX 104.11 all my history has suddenly disappeared! Why? I need it back!

    I am using a wonderful, bu old, Mac OSX 10.4.11. I am using Firefox 3.6.13. Last night my history was there! This morning when I turned my computer on it has all disappeared! Why?
    The bookmarks bar is still intact.
    I have changed no setting...I would not want my history to ever clear - it's useful to have there!
    Please can someone help me?

    I totally agree, there have been many Mac users that have been effected by this.

  • How can I get flash player to show full video using Firefox (23.0.1) on MAC (OSX 10.8.4)

    On Youtube and other sites, I only see the top left quadrant of the video.  I tried uninstalling and re-installing the latest flash player and that did not solve the problem.

    Actually, that was my fault - I saw "Tab" and thought of the full settings display and way I'd normally get to the proper place.  Anyway, I tried taing the number fo time you mentioned but it did not work. Pressing the Tab key 6 tims and pressing enter did get me to the right place. Pressing Tab once highlights the full box (note yellow outline in 1st pic below:
    From there, if I "press Enter again. Press Tab 5 (five) more times, press Enter and close the box." the box does not close and I get to:
    If, on the other hand, when I get to the Display page a press tab twice, it highlights the item I need to uncheck as shown below:
    If from there I Press enter, it does nto uncheck the box, which is what I think needs to be done. Neither does the space bar. And if I follow out the instructions from there I get to"
    So, I'm guesing we may have different items on the setting pages.  My version of flash is 11.8.800.94.

  • Cannot read mails in hotmail with firefox 15.0.1 on mac osx 10.6.8

    I'm using firefox 15.0.1 on mac osx 10.6.8. I can log in hotmail, but cannot open or read any mails.

    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

  • Question: Inadvertently a visiting toddler gained access to my computer during a visit. He's obviously fiddled with something as I can no longer use my arrow keys to navigate through my albums or events on iPhoto. Please help!

    Question: Inadvertently a visiting toddler gained access to my computer during a visit. He's obviously fiddled with something as I can no longer use my arrow keys to navigate through my albums or events on iPhoto. Only one pic shows up in the album view - I can't see any thumbnails. To see the other pics I have to use the scroll bar on the right hand side of the window. Please help!

    Depeding on your version of iPhoto: On the left (iPhoto 11) or right (earlier versions) of the lower frame of the iPhoto Window you'll see a slider. Drag it left.

  • Acrobat X Pro 10.1.12 under Yosemite crashes when trying to use arrow keys to navigate.

    Acrobat X Pro 10.1.12 Mac
    Yosemite OS X 10.10.1
    Acrobat now crashes when attempting to use arrow keys to navigate. This is true on both MacBook Pro 15 retina and Mac Pro.

    I ended up upgrading to Acrobat XI. This works, but Adobe is up to its old tricks changing the interface from what we're used to using. They now have decided to hide all the tools. You have to delve deep into the program to find the tools, then set up your own tool menus. Lord help you finding a tool that you use too occasionally to put on a custom menu.
    Adobe has been doing this for years now. In Photoshop of olden days, it was simple to set up a brush, say, that you used frequently. Quite a few updates ago they made that vastly more difficult. And they've replaced words with happy little icons, that are not at all intuitive to use. I challenge you, too, to look at the icon for the airbrush and tell me whether it is on or off. (Sorry, this is mainly about Photoshop, but what they've done to the latest Acrobat is just as bad.)
    Of course, their ultimate cuteness in making things difficult for the user is their essential abandonment of a Help system. You can't do a simple look-up of a function -- you have to go to an internet site and sort through a bunch of forums and user comments to get any information.
    JEEZ Adobe!

    Are you using a bookmark or does this also happen if you type the address of the main (home) page of the website?
    Bookmarked pages can become invalid, so you may have to enter the main page and then navigate to the wanted page.

  • I need to download a version of Firefox that is optimized for Yahoo! but I cannot use Firefox 4 for Yahoo! because it doesn't support Norton 360 as of yet. Any suggestions?

    If you do have any suggestions, where can I find it? The only place I know of is the http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html web site and you can only get version 3.6.16 there and it's NOT optimized for Yahoo!. Please help!
    Yahoo! keeps sending me the following message in a box on my screen along with the links to Firefox 4 and IE : Attention: Please upgrade to the latest Yahoo! optimized browser to ensure the best Yahoo! experience. But, as I stated in the question above, I cannot use Firefox 4 yet because it does NOT support Norton 360. Plus, I don't trust IE8 to use Facebook!
    Thanks for any help you can give me! Your very prompt attention to this question is greatly appreciated as I am sort of at a standstill before moving on with my work.
    Regards,
    Christine

  • The front camera on my iPod touch 4th generation is frozen. I cannot use it. Updating software does not help. This started right after I bought it, new from BestBuy. What can I do?

    The front camera on my iPod touch 4th generation is frozen. I cannot use it. Updating software does not help. This started right after I bought it, new from BestBuy. What can I do? When i go to the camera, it is stuck on a black screen. the only way to use my camera is through other camera apps, but if I try to switch it to the front camera, it freezes again.

    If you still have the problem after retoring the iPOd to factory defaults/new iPod then The iPod is likely defective and replacement is required.  You can make an appoinment at the Genius Bar of an APple store or take it back to BestBuy if within warranty

  • When I tried to download the new version of firefox I get an error message that says "you computer must be restarted to complete an earlier upgrade" when I restart it says the same thing. I cannot use firefox at all at the moment.

    When I tried to download the new version of firefox I get an error message that says "your computer must be restarted to complete an earlier upgrade" when I restart it says the same thing. I cannot use firefox at all at the moment. When I try to uninstall in the control panel, the same message pops up.

    If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
    * Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    * Install the new version that you have downloaded

  • I lost my bluetooth after installation of Maverick2. Can anyone help me please, i cannot use my magic mouse on my Mac Book Pro  retina???

    I lost my bluetooth after installation of Maverick2. Can anyone help me please, i cannot use my magic mouse on my Mac Book Pro  retina???

    There is a fix; I finally discovered how to clear the Windows 7 xx64 Device Manager's warning of a missing Bluetooth Peripheral device.
    Thinking Boot Camp 4.0 would correct thid, I installed it ititially today only to have the warning remain.
    The Bluetooth company called Broadcom (you notice the reference during the installation of Boot Camp) offers a BlueTooth "device finder" (my phraseology) that detects all BlueTooth devices in your Apple or PC but withing a Windows operating system; included are Windows 7 , Vista, XP and even 2000 operating systems.
    So download the 3 MB file, from Broadcom.com.  While your Bluetooth equipment is plugged in to the computer, run the program.  The program searches for any BlueTooth peripheral activated equipment and BlueTooth devices that makeup your MacBook Pro, or other Apple or a plain PC computer having a Windows operating system installed.  It then downloads the appropriate software required.
    The company's URL address:
    http://www.broadcom.com/support/bluetooth/update.php
    In my case, I ran the program, rebooted my MacBook Pro (in Windows 7 x64 and with the new Boot Camp 4.0 installed) and the missing BlueTooth peripheral device indication was eliminated.  It took 10 minutes to complete.
