I upgraded to firefox 4 (from 3.x) and since then I can't scroll using the trackpoint on my IBM R40 laptop. It does work in other applications including foldres, explorere etc.

It worked until I downloaded the last version of firefox, and it still works with any other application except ff.

Apparently it's related to the Firefox plug in.
This isn't exactly a solution but more of a way to avoid opening PDFs with Firefox's plug in.
1. Highlight "Tools" from the Menu Bar in the top left of the screen (or click "Options" if using the Firefox Compact Menu)
2. Select to "Options
3. Select "Applications"
4. Look for "Adobe Acrobat Document" under Content Type and to the right under Action select "Use Adobe Reader (default)" instead of the using Adobe Acrobat in Firefox
5. Open a test PDF. It should open in it's own window now.
Again, not a complete solution but something that'll at least let you scroll with PDFs open.

    Try a new SIM from your carrier.  If that doesn't work, make a Genius Bar appointment and get your phone evaluated.

    You can check the status of your drive's indexing by clicking the Spotlight menu to see if there is a progress bar at the bottom of it, and can also open Activity Monitor and click the "%CPU" column to sort by CPU usage, to see if the processes "mds" or "mdworker" are currently active and using your CPU.
    If so, then wait for them to finish. However, if not then try rebooting and then hold the Shift key immediately after you hear the boot chimes. This will load the system into Safe Mode, which should run some checks and maintenance routines on the system. Then reboot normally to see if the problem persists.
    How much RAM do you have installed on your system? You can see this by choosing About This Mac from the Apple menu.

    I have an epson T50 shared network, which is connected to a computer that runs on Windows 7 64-bit. The 10 days Apple has updated the printer drive and since then has been trying to print the following message: / Library/Printers/EPSON/InkjetPrinter2/Filter/rastertoescpII.app/Contents/MacOS/ rastertoescpII failed.
    What should I do?

    The first thing you should do is re-write your post to make it a bit more understandable. I got you have an Epson printer connected to your PC, however after that  your post doesn't make any sense. Are you attempting to print from your iMac, if so then you need to download and install Bonjour for Windows on your Windows machine. Then set Windows so it has printer sharing turned on and then on the iMac simply follow Apple's instructions for adding a printer.

  • My macbook pro was repaired and since then i can't get nor photoshop or bridge to initialize. a window appears that says it has  initializing problems due to an icc profile issue.

    my macbook pro was repaired and since then i can't get nor photoshop cs5 or bridge cs5 to initialize. a window appears that says it has initializing problems due to an icc profile issue.
    there appear two error messages. the first one says that there has been a problem sincronizing because of a programme error. the second one appears after you clicked ok on the first window and says that photoshop couldn't be initialized because the icc profile is invalid.
    does anyone know if i have to delete any system or photoshop preference? the illustrator is also having troubles. thanks

    thanks! what finnally worked better was renaming the «settings» folder in te «color folder» in the library with ~before the name. now indesign is asking me for thw icc profiles but still works, so i asume i can reinstall color settings only for indesign and go on.

  • I just upgraded to Firefox 5.0.1 and since the "lock" icon never appears when accessing secure websites, where should I look for it?

    I just recently upgraded to Firefox 5.0.1 and now the "lock" icon doesn't appear anywhere (I can find) when accessing secure websites. I haven't seen it once. It used to appear in the lower right corner of the screen. I also have Norton Internet Security.

    Padlock is no longer part of Firefox; it was removed beginning in Firefox 4. The padlock shows that there is a secure connection but does not supply additional information. You could have made a typographical error and still have been connected to a secure connection. The padlock was replaced in Firefox 3 with the Site Identity Button. Familiarize yourself with the Site Identity Button at the left end of the Location Bar:

  • FireFox upgraded automatically today and since then I can't launche it...it freezes up and I have to shut it off at the computer...I can access Internet Explorer

    FireFox automatically upgraded today. When I try to launche it, it only loads about half the page. (I use Google as my home page) It just gets stuck there. I try to close out the page and I get "this program is not responding". I can launche Internet Explorer with no problem, (I much prefer using FF, but if I can't get into it...) so it has to be something with FireFox. FF freezes, so I end up having to shut of my computer AT the computer, because it won't shut off at the desktop monitor. Windows asks me to send a report and I have. I don't know if it has anything to do with it, but my Norton antivirus prevented a plugin from happening...I don't really understand it all...
    I just tried to open my home page again and got the message way up at the top of the page " Mozilla FireFox (not responding)

  • I want to know how to enable the links that are sent in an email, with each upgrade of Firefox it gets harder and harder to do so. What is the trick to this?

    With each upgrade of Firefox, I have a harder and harder time, getting to the links provided in my emails. Some times I am able to trick the link into working, if I continue to to try every link in the email, but most of the time, I just have to give up. I know that I need to change something, maybe in the settings, but I don't know what.
    Please help me. I am considering just going back to Internet Explorer.

    This did not solve my problem. I can sometimes click on a link (word) provided in an email, that leads to a site, but it does not list the website address!! It works sometimes, providing me with a chance to enable links for this address or enable link (I think basically for just that one time).

  • Firefox crashed and since then I can't open it, not even after reinstallation

    My computer had an unexpected shutdown. At that time, Mozilla was open and working with no problems. After the shutdown I restarted the computer but Mozilla wouldn't open. Simply after clicking the icon (in Startuo programs r any shortcut) nothing happens. I tried to uninstall it with Windows Uninstaller whowever I didn't manage - I kept receiving the message to close the program before uninstalling. So I used an external uninstaller with which I managed to uninstall the program and installed it all over again however this didn't solve the problem- I still cannot open it. Can you advise me some solution?
