I'm ready to drop Firefox because Scratchpad repeatedly opens anytime I have to Capitalize anything and at no time have I ever used the Web Developer tool

Have used Firefox for many years on multiple computers. On the home desktop, anytime you need to CAP a letter, Scratchpad opens instead. Every single time!
This is only having on this one computer, none of the others.
I have completely uninstalled, cleaned and purged Firefox from this computer multiple times. I have run multiple virus checks. I have done the Firefox reset multiple upon multiple times.
Yesterday I completely uninstalled every scrap related to Firefox I could find on the system, did a system clean to get rid of hidden and duplicate files, and with what I hoped was a clean system, reinstalled the latest version of FF. Same problem.
WHY is Scratchpad coming up anytime I hit the Shift key?
Somehow the developer tools and Scratchpad still show up and ultimately the problems start again.

Hello Mark,
I can understand your frustration with this issue - especially after you are running into this issue after resetting your computer too.
Can you please check if the scratchpad comes up, if you disable the setting ''devtools.scratchpad.enabled'' by setting the value to false. You can do this by following the instructions in the Mozillazine about modifying the configuration of Mozilla [http://kb.mozillazine.org/About:config Editing About:Config]
Thank you

I downloaded the web developer tool bar and after using it my images are gone. I use google and a home page and the big google is gone. I uninstalled firefox and reinstalled it but I still don't have any images. How can I get them back?

Two days ago I downloaded the web developer tool bar (aus2.mozilla.com). I tried to use it but gave up. I deleted the tool bar.
I don't have any images anymore. I use Google.com as my home page (default) and the large GOOGLE isn't there anymore. I've also noticed some of the sites I use don't have the continue or next or enter keys anymore. It seems the only thing I have now is the text.

Are you sure you are looking at the Google page?? In Firefox 4.0 the default homepage / Start Page in Firefox was changed to '''about:home''' which looks a lot like the former www.google.com/firefox homepage.

Are we allowed to use the Web developer function in Firefox version 5.0 to edit the html source code associated with the Firefox home page?

Are we allowed to use the Web developer function, under the "Firefox" tab in Firefox version 5.0, to edit the html source code associated with the Firefox version 5.0 home page ( so that we can personalize the home page )? Is this legal?
Sincerely in Christ,

Solution: (Free Download Manager)
Go here: http://codecpack.co/download/Free_Download_Manager.html and download Free Download Manager 3.8.1067 Beta 3, it works perfectly with Firefox 5.0.1
Solution: (to Google mail aka Gmail)
I have had this problem for a while since I did a previous Firefox update, where I had to force Gmail to load in Basic HTML else it's next to impossible to use it. The solution is this: simply update your Java, and Gmail will work without a problem using Standard HTML. To update your Java go here: http://www.java.com/en/ and select "Free Java Download".
And beta normally, universally, means "the not quite there yet version of the version we're aiming for" NORMALLY used during production and testing of a type of software.

Since uploading Firefox 4 I get error messages saying it can't update and I should be sure I am using the latest version. I am, so why will updates not load?

The question is in the title. I have had no updates to Firefox 4, just error messages saying they can't be loaded and I should check that I am using the latest version. I have downloaded Firefox 4 again to be sure my copy is up to date but it makes no difference. I still get the error message.

Remove the files in the updates and updates\0 folder.<br />
You may need to delete active-update.xml and updates.xml as well if present.

Firefox version 21 What is the WEB DEVELOPER TOOL ? What are the fuctions and what is it for?

I just want to know what all the tools do in the tools bar/ web developer
What does each of them control?

Current Firefox versions have a lot of built-in web developer tools including an Inspector and Style editor.
*https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Tools
The Web Developer toolbar has a help menu (F1) to facilitate entering commands.<br />
You can also use this toolbar to make a full page screenshot.

Web Developer tools for Firefox

Hello again!
Okay so I downloaded and installed Firefox and then tried to download the web developer tools recommended by Nadia (http://chrispederick.com/work/web-developer), but apparently I don't have the program to open the .xpi file to install these tools. Any advice?.
Thank You!
Beau

Well there you have it tadaaa!
Thank You Very Much!

I downloaded a new version of firefox. It said it had problems with my norton toolbar and now it doesn't feature it in the window. I'm not that comp savvy. How do I either get the Norton toolbar up or go back to the old firefox? Thank you.

I can't deauthorise my daughter's last computer from iTunes because it has crashed. We have three computers in the house but I can't authorise my new MacbookPro for iTunes or homesharing because it says I have 5 computers authorised (I don't). I can't even get my music from the iTunes library on my old Macbook onto my new one, because it won't let me sync my iPhone 5 with my old Macbook, as I can't update the iTunes software. So I have a new MacbookPro and a new iPhone 5 and I can't get any of my music on either of them. I feel singularly depressed.

As you have more than 1 computer authorised then you should be able to log into your account on your computer's iTunes (Store > View My Account) and 'deauthorise all' (which you can do once every 12 months) and you can then authorise/reauthorise the computers that you still have and need : authorising and deauthorising.

I can't update software because a message appears that I have to log with the same Apple ID that was used to purchase them: iMovie, Garage Band, iPhoto, but those apps came with OSX Lion.
How can I get the "original" Apple ID?

this says it all..

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Contact Apple through iTunes Store Support, and explain that you have forgotten your 3 security questions, that you can reset your password, but doing so doesn't reset your security questions.
Remember, support will receive hundreds, if not thousands of requests per day, some from people trying it on, others with little explanation and others that are written extremely poorly. Take the time to explain your situation properly, be precise and concise, brief but comprehensive.

HT5621 I have tried to changed my Apple ID and every time I try to use the new Apple ID it won't let me because when i try to update an app the old ID comes up to sign in. I deleted that account so it will not let me use my new one.

Content and Apple IDs -
Content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple Id to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to access your content bought with another Apple ID with a new ID.

When I try to use the Smart Brush I keep getting this message "Could not use the Smart Brush tool because it is not a valid Photoshop document"

When I try to use the Smart Brush I keep getting this message "Could not use the Smart Brush tool because it is not a valid Photoshop document". Can someone please help me fix this? It's never done this before until now...

First go to the editor preferences>general and click this button, then restart the editor and try again. If that doesn't do it, more info, like your version of PSE and your operating system:

Why are web developer tools not available on Firefox for Android?

I do some freelance web design. I just replaced my laptop with a tablet last year (Samsung Galaxy 10.5 S). I want to do web development on it - I work from a terminal doing Ruby on Rails and web development all the time. It would be awesome to have the F12 developer tools handy in Firefox for Android, but sadly I've waited for a while and there is no indication they will ever appear.
Do NOT suggest using a remote debugger - I'm not testing the layout of pages on my tablet, I want to be able to profile, view source (without an add-on) and such. I have seen this exact question marked closed by suggesting remote debugging, and I fail to see how telling me to use my tablet next to a laptop or desktop is a solution. Telling me to carry a second device means I don't need the tablet at all, when my intention is to ONLY use the tablet.
My tablet has a huge screen resolution and a powerful processor - more powerful than some laptops? Why is Firefox for Android neutered? I would understand disabling it by default to help those with less powerful devices, but why remove something that would add a competitive edge to your product, and is already integrated in desktop Firefox and has been for years? I prefer Firefox, but if Chrome adds web developer tools for Android first, I'll switch to Chrome.
There are people today using a tablet as their sole computing device. Please do not relegate us to a second-class Firefox experience!
Thanks,
Ryan

Hi Ryan:
Thanks for the developer tools feature request
This is a user support forum not a developer tools forum therefore I am locking this thread.

Could not use the clone stamp tool because the area to clone has not been defined

Freshly installed Elements 10. Can not use the option-mouse click to define an area for the clone stamp. The error I get is:
Could not use the clone stamp tool because the area to clone has not been defined (option-click to define a source point).
New Mac Mini. Had the same problems in Elements 9 so I installed the 10 trial. Is this a key binding error? Did not have this issue with Elements 9 on my Mac Air or my Windows 7 system.
I'm not a newbie and know how to use the clone tool. I won't say I'm an expert so if it's something related to layers please throw out some ideas.

This problem came back up. I hadn't used PSE since last November and was frustrated to run into it again. I don't think it's a layers issue afterall.
I use a wireless keyboard and mouse on Mini and mouse on Air, although keyboard for Air is upstairs at a desk with monitor for occasional use. Regardless blue tooth is on for these devices. Problem exists. Turn bluetooth off on Air and the problem is gone. It must be related to option key when bluetooth is on, I guess some different mapping. Even when I have bluetooth on and try to use Option key on the Air keyboard it does not work.
So now where do I look for configs to check?

Could not use the clone stamp tool because the area to clone has not been defined (option-click to define a source point). this is what shows up in the command box when ever I click to start to pick the spot i want to use as the clone. makes my cloning tool useless. can any one help? I have reset the tools restrted my computer. i am at a loss...

Are you working with more than one layer? If you are working with multiple layers it makes a difference when selecting source spot and then trying to clone to a different layer. I find that I have to be sure I am selecting the corresponding layers for source and then for application when working within multiple layers.
At least for me this is the case when getting that type of message. I am very new to this program though, so maybe someone else has a more concise answer for you.
Good luck and write again if this doesn't help.
