I want Firefox to not be so wide so I need to scroll back and forth with much needed larger text

I want to have large text, but narrower windows. Every time I need to make text larger for certain sites; it makes my viewing window wider so I have to scroll back and forth to read. I once had an add on to keep the window the same size in width, just with longer windows, which I don't mind. I can't remember what it was called. Therefore I can't find it to download.
Please help.

Thanks for the help, Gryllida, I've tried the zooming in/out feature, but it seems to only work on the headers or headlines on some sites; and still the reading text stayed small. I think I'll try the extension instead.
Boy, I do remember using Opera too.
My new computer came yesterday, I'm going to install Ubunbtu instead of windows. It's a barebones kit.

  • Back and forth with two finger in folders does not work

    It is sad, that back and forth with two fingers does not work in Itunes, Folders, or somewere else than in Safari. You can put the settings back thwo three fingers but than you cannnot mark text with three fingers. It would be nice just to use two finger everywher to go back an forth

    Would be nice positive posts too ..

  • I do NOT like the new Firefox. I do alot of work back and forth with pages, with this new system it slows me down. How can I restore my older version

    I work on Bay listing items, I have to go back and forth on sites. The new firefox dosn`t allow this. It has back arrows, but pop up asking request are very annoying, and take much more time, The older version would allow me to drop down to the previous pages..I want my old version back. This new version has a whole lotta extra unneeded crap that just takes L O N G E R to load.. It sucks..How can I restore the older version

    See this thread:

    It contains instructions for downgrading to iTunes 10 and also an explanation of how to use the new search features from tt2 if you want to try again with iTunes 11.

  • Firefox will not go back and forth one page / one site using Mac Lion one finger scroll back and forth - how do I do it? Thank you.

    ... just upgraded to Lion from Snow Leopard. Swiping a (one) finger (left) back and (right) forth should move the pages / sites back and forward.
    It does not on Firefox but does on Safari.
    Please tell me how to make Firefox work.
    Thank you -
    Wm. Pordy

    You can get the drop down list by either right-clicking on the back/forward buttons, or holding down the left button until the list appears.
    If you want the drop-down arrow you can add it with the Back/forward dropmarker add-on - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker

  • When I start it up it shows two two nested windows on the screen, has a Firefox yellow tab in the corner, does not display the toolbar bookmarks, the back and forth buttons do not work and there is no page refresh. No clue what is going on.

    Every time I open up Firefox it appears to open two nested and linked windows, each with their own minimize, maximize and close buttons but the both work the same. The homepage does not come up, the back and forth buttons do not work. Both the refresh button and F5 do not work. The Bookmark Toolbar does not show up until I disable it in View and then re-enable it and this causes the outer nested window to disappear or close.

    This issue can be caused by an extension or theme that isn't working properly.
    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Firefox jumps back and forth between time?

    I have the most up-to-date version of Firefox (11.0 if I recall correctly) and Mac OS X 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) updated on my . I have just recently been having an issue where firefox seems to jump back and forth through time. The time difference is at most a minute or two, but it gets very frustrating.
    For example, while I am writing this question, Firefox will jump back to a point where only half of the first paragraph is written, jump back to the 'present', jump back a bit, and then return to the 'present'. This happens with scrolling through websites as well.
    I updated yesterday because I bought Diablo III and wanted to make sure everything was current to let it install smoothly (which it didn't... >.<). I noticed upon the restart that my background will switch to a blue background from my picture. When I try to change the background back, it will revert to the blue background after 5 seconds or so. Perhpas this is related to the Firefox issue?

    Same specs here, but not seeing the issue you are describing, I suspect yours is a isolated issue.

    Well lets eliminate Firefox and the add-ons/plug-ins as a possibility first.
    1: User Firefox to uninstall all add-ons, then uninstall FF.
    2: Use Safari to check the status of your Flash and other plug-ins using this site
    https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/
    3: Install FF again, then install your add-ons over time, one at a time, to try to determine when the problem occurs.

    Sounds like another issue, but localized to that particular account.
    Create another user in System Preference and see if it continues there as well.
    You can delete your
    com.apple.systempreferences.plist
    file in your User/Library/Preferences folder and reboot, the file will be recreated minus your preferences which you reset.
    Also download and run all of the free OnyX's mainatainance and cleaning aspects and reboot at the end (must), your machine will get a enema of sorts that might clear up the glitch.

  • I just found out my credit score dropped because Verizon One bill put me through collections for my final bill that I never received and after almost two hours on the phone transferred back and forth they still could not confirm if I owe money or not.

    After 2 hours transferred back and forth between billing, one bill, home and wireless no one could prove that I owed money.  Wireless said I owed nothing and home said I had a credit for cancelling a couple days before the billing cycle but owed for wireless.  After a three-way called between Home and Wireless and Wireless insisting I do not owe anything, the Home representative disconnected herself, the wireless rep promised me a call back the next day to get the other department online and to get everything resolved.  No one called me back next day and the day after.  Knowing this could go in circles and don't want to do anything bad to my credit, I paid the settlement amount to the collection agencies.  Now I saw that my credit score got ding for an amount that Verizon couldn't prove that I owed.  I should not have paid it at all.   If someone from Verizon reads this message, please get back to me and get this resolved.  After more than 15 years with this company, this is making me so frustrated.  I liked Verizon services but at this point I am going to start looking for someone with better billing.

    I called customer service, spoke to Verizon Wireless Representative but they cannot pull anything on my record.  So after two transfers I asked to speak to financial services.  Spoke to Ronnie Ext 5100.  Representative was very rude, not listening, kept on insisting that since I paid the collection agency I cannot dispute.  Said should not have paid the collection agency.  Rep was over talking, not listing to me explaining my frustration of being on the phone for hours in November between Verizon OneBill, Home and Wireless and got nothing resolved, and that's why I paid.  Said there's nothing she can do except to put a note to Credit Bureau that the account is paid in full.  I asked to talk to a supervisor or a manager and she said no one can do anything else.  I insisted and she asked me to leave a phone number to call back.  After all the calls and speaking to many reps, this is the worst.  Now I am back to square one waiting for someone to call me back.  And my credit score is still one hundred points lower thanks to Verizon!!!

I noticed upon the restart that my background will switch to a blue background from my picture. When I try to change the background back, it will revert to the blue background after 5 seconds or so. Perhpas this is related to the Firefox issue?

  • The back-and-forth bar does not come back when I reset to defaults. This problem is not solved.

    I have attempted to get my back-and-forth navigation bar back as your website suggested, i.e., View/Toolbars/reset defaults, but it has not corrected the problem.

    I have a G5 PPC Dual 20" Mac Displays - I want to incorporate a Mac Mini and still use my keyboard and Monitors and Switch back and forth. How do I do this?

    The Hatter,
    I am a novice at Mac so I read all I can.  From what I understand the NEC monitors I bought require Display Port for their maximum performance.  The GTX 680 only has DVI outputs.  Difference from what I understand is larger bandwidth with the DP.
    You said I have the 4000 for CUDA.  I am not all that familiar with CUDA and when I do read about it I do not understand it. 
    A concern I have is, that if I connect the 2 high end NEC monitors via the 5770, using it's 2 Display Ports I would have nothing connected to the 4000.  Is the 4000 doing anything with nothing connected?  I read where in a PC system the 2 cards would interact but in a Mac system they do not.
    Bottom line, as I see it, the 4000 will not be useful at all to me, since I want a dual monitor set-up.
    So far the 5870 seems the best choice, higher band width than the 5770, and it has 2 Display Ports to optimize the NEC monitors.
    I'm not sure how fine I am splitting hairs, nor do I know how important those hairs are.  I am just trying to set up a really fast reliable system that will mainly be used for CS6 and LR4.  Those NEC monitors are supposed to be top notch.
