I can't seem to copy & paste while I am using Firefox; but I can with Internet Explorer. What am I doing wrong? I guess I just don't understand how to do it.

I am working in Ancestry.com. If I am in Internet Explorer, I can copy a picture & then paste it in my pictures, on my computer. If I am using Firefox, I don't understand which things to do to copy & then paste a picture, like I can in Internet Explorer. I prefer to use Firefox, but need to be able to use this copy & paste feature, often. I just downloaded Firefox, & started using it, again, yesterday. I just got a new computer in June.

When you run out of keyboard short cuts, enter the addtional names in the name field in the keyword editor. That will start a new Keyword Collection. You can apply the addtional keywords to multiple cllips on the event browser. Or you can drag the clips into the Collection in the Event Library.

There are some compatibility issues between the latest Flash player and some Firefox add-ons or settings. Usually this manifests itself in problems with video, but games might also be affected. Could you see whether anything in this article helps: [[Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox]].

Hello,
Some problems with Flash video playback can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings. (See [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems|this article]] for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).
To disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player:
#Go to this [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues Adobe Flash Player Help page].
#Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
#Click on '''Settings''' in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
# Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel. [[Image:fpSettings1.PNG]] 
# Remove the check mark from '''Enable hardware acceleration'''.
# Click '''Close''' to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
# Restart Firefox.
This [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player Help - Display Settings page] has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.
Does this solve the problem? Let us know.

I downloaded Firefox 4.0.1 and have not been able to use my DigitalPersona fingerprint login since. Will this be added on or can you tell me how to go back to using the older version of Firefox so I can use my fingerprint login again? Thanks

I have not been able to use my digitalPersona v4.11.3826 (fingerprint login) since I downloaded firefox 4.0.1. Will this be incorporated to the add-ons or if not, can you tell me what the easiest way is to go back to using the older version of Firefox?

I am using the latest version of Firefox, but keep getting message to upgrade as wesite will not open as it thinkgs I am using an old version

I constantly get messages that say I am not using the latest version of Firefox & then do not display properly. I am using v3.6.3 & get this message on a lot of sites I visit.
Just noticed that in the guesses shown below -even this thinks I am using v2.0 Firefox version, which is not correct.

I can't use the wifi after 10 pm, but i can use it again at 7 am?

so for some reason, i can't use my wifi after 10 pm. but in the morning when i wake up, i can use it again. is this some parental control or something? please lead me through it. i can't really ask my parents to do it, because they're not technologically advanced. they can probably give me the basic like the password and all, but that's it. how can i fix it? i'm using the wifi on an ipod touch. the wifi works perfectly fine on a regular computer but it doesn't work on my ipod during those certain hours. can someone please help me?
the wifi icon shows up in the upper left corner, but its obviously not connected. there are no restrictions on the ipod at all.
any other details you need, please ask. i really need this solved!

i'd definitely say it was a wifi thing rather than an ipod thing. as far as i can think of there would be no way to tell an ipod to only access the internet between 7am and 10pm. - unless you were to restrict it using the router (i imagine this COULD be possible, but don't know if it actually is).
everything which accesses the internet is given an individual 'mac address'. so if you have say, 3 computers, an ipod, a games console, all accessing a wifi network, that router will recognise them all individually by it's individual mac address. you can use mac filtering to give you an extra level of security to your network. so even if the correct network password is entered onto a wifi enabled piece of technology, if the router hasn't got the mac address entered as one that it should accept, you won't get access to the network.
i must reiterate, i don't know if you can do this, but i would think it may be possible to restrict a certain mac address from accessing the network at certain times of the day (for example a young kid who may be playing with their ipod in bed, but should really be asleep!)
if you go into the settings option on your ipod, general, restrictions, you can play around with your own restrictions and see what they do. mostly they restrict complete access, or the download of explicit content.

Cant use some funtions in firefox but still work with internet explorer, too long to explain in one ssentence

recently I have found that certain buttons on sites like facebook and others will not function when I am using firefox but if I use internet explorer those same buttons work fine. one example is the log out button in facebook. you can click on the command button all day but nothing happens. First thought this was a facebook issue but noticed certain command buttons did not work in other sites as well. Went to i.e. and everything works fine what has happened

I'm using the latest version of firefox, but unable to print any downloads. I've tried using the print icon on the downloaded form and also control P

I've tried using the print icon on the downloaded form and also control P, but only get a blank page. I've even changed printers, but it didn't help. My print menu looks the same and I do not have trouble printing anything else, only with downloaded files.

If you cannot see any content on pages you printed or in print preview, the cause might be margins which are set too high.
#In order to check the margins, we need to go to ''File'' > ''Page Setup''.
#Once this is done, switch to the ''Margins & Header/Footer'' tab.
#Check what's set there under ''Margins''.
The following are the default values for ''Margins'':
'''Right''': 12.7
'''Top''': 12.7
'''Left''': 12.7
'''Bottom''': 12.7
Check these values accordingly and change them if necessary.

I have an iPhone 4S and bought the Universal Dock, I use the iPod and move photos, but I can not move slides on TV with the HDMI cable. What can I do?

I always use Keynote for presentations and would like to use the Universal Dock to put the Iphone and move slides. Someone got something?

Have you tried this without the universal dock?

I am unable to print (any website) from the latest Firefox, but print fine from Internet Explorer. Using Windows Vista on a desktop machine.

printer advances page and spits it out with either nothing or a single garbled line printed on it instead of a whole web page. This is independent of which web site and even happens with web sites that have a specific PRINT or PRINTER FRIENDLY VERSION button. Printing is fine from Internet Explorer. Unsure about Chrome. Printing from Firefox worked fine until I downloaded newest version. Operating system is Windows Vista on a 64 bit desktop computer.

Try the '''reset''' described here:

I'm developing a web site using MVC3 & Razor, but my css changes do not show up on FireFox, but do on Chrome & Internet Explorer - How can I get Razor to render correctly on FireFox?

I don't have a public version as I'm just staring development.
For an example I have completed the walk-thru at [http://www.asp.net/mvc/tutorials/getting-started-with-ef-using-mvc/updating-related-data-with-the-entity-framework-in-an-asp-net-mvc-application]. Then I tried changing minor items in site.css (such as font size) and the changes did not show up on FireFox, but do show up on Chrome and Internet Explorer.
Example of change below: I changed the background from #e8eef4 to #ff0000. The table header background shows up in red for chrome & IE, but stay in light blue for FireFox.
<code>
table th {
padding: 6px 5px;
text-align: right;
background-color: #ff0000;
border: solid 1px #e8eef4;
</code>

You can also reload web page(s) and bypass the cache.
*Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
*Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
*Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)
