Images disappear when I try to enlarge them.

Immediately after upgrading from FF 3.6 to FF4.0.1, I went to the themes part of your site to pick a theme. However, each time I'd click to enlarge pictures of the themes, they appear larger for a second or so then the screen would go blank in the frame where the enlarged picture was supposed to be. I tried other websites with same results. Content appears to be "missing" (blank areas) where videos or pictures are posted. Also, background colors on websites I frequent, for instance colors that distinguish one poster's comment from another seem to be missing.
I've tried a fresh install of FF 4, and that didn't fix the problem. Tried deactivating and activating each extension. Still no fix. All drivers etc, are up-to-date with latest versions.
Can you tell me what app or extension is is responsible for these features and how to fix this problem? I really like FF 4 except for this.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in <u>[[Safe mode]]</u>:
* Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

  • Why are my favicons squashed when I try to enlarge them?

    OS X 10.10.2, Firefox 35.0.1
    I was trying to increase the size of the favicons on the bookmarks toolbar, from default to 24 x 24. I tried the Stylish extension, as well as the Roomy Toolbar add-on, both of which enlarged the icons.
    However the aspect ratio is off; the favicons are the proper width but not the proper height, giving them a squashed appearance.
    I confirmed this by replacing one 16x16 favicon with a 24x24 favicon, but it too appears distorted and unclear. It appears the bookmarks toolbar is somehow preventing the favicons from expanding to their correct height.
    I tried a bit of css tweaking but nothing worked.
    Anyone have any ideas on how I can get the toolbar to behave, i.e. make it allow for the increased height of the favicons?

    Okay, here's my current setup:
    1. userChrome.css (with a space before the '#'):
    @namespace url("https://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */
    #PersonalToolbar, #personal-bookmarks { height: 35px !important; }
    #personal-bookmarks toolbarbutton.bookmark-item .toolbarbutton-icon {
    height: 24px !important;
    width: 24px !important;
    2. hbox > image still shows a width of 0 and height of 18 with Dom Inspector Box Model; everything else now lists as 1876 x 24
    The hbox itself shows as width 0 and height 0.
    After restarting FF, the icons still appear as 16x16.
    If I use Roomy Bookmarks add-on to increase the icon size to 24x24, they appear squashed.
    When I disable the add-on and restart, the icons stay at 16 x16.
    3. Something else I discovered:
    Scrollbox shows as a height of 24 in Box Model, however the individual toolbarbutton nodes (class: bookmark-item) lists as height of 22, and the xul:image within shows width 16 and height 16.
    It appears that the toolbar is resizing properly; I can see more height.
    But despite userChrome.css, the icons are not resizing to 24x24, although the Box Model appears to be increasing to 24.

  • Photos disappear when I try to edit them

    I have had trouble on and off with my photos disappearing from the screen when I am editing them.  I have tried closing all applications running in the background while editing photos, closing and reopening iPhoto, restarting my computer.  Nothing fixes it. I am currently unable to edit any photos without this happening. What is the problem?

    Apply the two fixes below in order as needed: 
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • In my photo album I have the thumbnails of pics but when I try to enlarge to see them they disappear.Help please

    My photos have disappeared when I try to enlarge them but are there in thumbnails?

    Yes, you can upload directly to FB from Photos but you can only post to your own wall.  I want to select pictures from FB so I can post to a group.  It's not just FB.  Any time I look for that album to attach a picture, the album is not there.  If I compose an email and want to attach a photo from that new album, the album is not there to choose from.

  • Image disappears when using transform function

    In Photoshop CS6, all of a sudden my image disappears when I try to transform a selection. Why is this happening? It didn't happen before, so maybe I accidently changed some setting, but I have no idea what it could be.

    Determine what make and model GPU you have, then go to the GPU maker's website and download the latest driver and follow their instructions to install it.

  • When I try to enlarge pictures in iPhoto I get a black screen with an triangle with a "!".

    My iMac hard drive crashed and I reloaded Lion and applications including iPhoto. I reloaded the iPhoto database from a backup hard drive. When I open iPhoto I can see my pictures in their events groups. However, when I try to enlarge them I get a black screen with an traingle with an "!". How do I correct the problem.

    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • HT1229 Ive move photos but they appear as duplicates in iPhoto.   When you try and open them it says Photo can't be found.  I have thousands.  How do I get rid of these images?

    Hi Ive moved photos but they appear as duplicates in iPhoto.   When you try and open them it says Photo can't be found.  I have thousands.  How do I get rid of these images?
    Also I have many duplicate photos (from backups)  It would be great to be able to remove all duplicates at one time, like in Itunes.
    Can this be done?

    You moved what photos from where and to where?
    Are you running a Managed or a Referenced Library?
    A Managed Library, is the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing. The files are then stored in the Library package
    A Referenced Library is when iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing because you made a change at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced. (You unchecked the option to copy files into the Library on import) The files are then stored where ever you put them and not in the Library package. In this scenario you are responsible for the File Management.

  • ITunes shows the music and audiobooks I've loaded to my iPod Touch, but they do not show up when I try to play them.

    iTunes shows the music and audiobooks I've loaded to my iPod Touch, but they do not show up when I try to play them.  I reconnect to iTunes and it shows the music and books as being loaded on my iPod.
    Sometimes the audiobook will play, then disappear from iPod's play menu after I reconnect to iTunes and load more music.  I've got plenty of free memory, and iTunes shows the files still on iPod.
    ....or should I just roll it back to iOS 5...  never had these kinds of issues with the old OS.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync/delete all AB and resync
    To delete all ADgo to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Manage Storage>AB and try deleting them from there
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:

  • I want to access the options in the context menu when clicking on a dropdown list in the bookmarks toolbar, but the context menu disappears when I try to click on one of the options. How can I keep the menu from disappearing?

    I have several dropdown lists in my bookmarks toolbar and would like to access the properties for some of the the items. This used to work fine. However, now, when I go to the list and place the cursor on a particular item, the context menu that is usually available on a right click disappears when I try to access one of the options. This is the menu that begins with Open. What can I do to regain this functionality? I really need the information in the Properties section. I'm using Firefox 3.6.8

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
    Also check the Mouse driver settings in the Control Panel.

    Have you upgraded to iPhoto 9.6 for compatibility with Yosemite? If not, try that first.
    It looks like iPhoto has lost the connection between the thumbnails and the original image files.
    This can be caused by a corrupted iPhoto library, or the originals have been deleted or moved.
    Try first to rebuild your iPhoto Library:
    If you do not have a current backup of the iPhoto library, make a copy of the library, but do not overwrite any previous backup.
    Launch iPhoto with the ⌥⌘-key combination (option-command) held down.
    Select "rebuild" from the first aid panel.  This may take a while for a large library.
    Can you now see your photos again?
    If not, rebuild the library with iPhoto Library manager as described by Old Toad:            Re: iphoto crashed

  • Since upgrading to FF 4, I have constant crashes (updating graphics drivers did not help). now all my bookmarks are gone. When I try to restore them, I get error message: "Unable to process the backup file".

    Since I "upgraded" to FF 4, I have constant crashes (I tried updating my graphics drivers--it did not help) and now all of my bookmarks have disappeared. When I try to restore them, I get this error message "Unable to process the backup file". I have lost years of bookmarks...please help.
    I am using Windows XP, SP 3 if that matters.

    I am also unable to restore any of the backups of the bookmarks, both automatic backups and two backups that I created manually. Since I was able to restore backups before, and since no changes have occurred to these backup files, the problem must be with Firefox.
    Right before my bookmarks disappeared, FF crashed and I accidentally started FF 3.5. When I saw what I did, I ended the Firefox process and started FF 4. That's when all my bookmarks were gone and I discovered I couldn't retrieve any backups. I did note that an add-on was updated when I restarted FF. Maybe that's the problem. Does FF have a Safe mode?

  • Multible tabs open when i clik a link to a new tab; then do not open or even show up when i try to close them with 'close all tabs'..they are like 'ghost tabs'

    This has been happening for several days now...the tabs are shown on the tab bar, but do not open up or close when i try to close them....when i tried 'close all tabs', which then says 'you are trying to close 2 tabs', they are not counted as being open....only way i can get rid of them is to close FireFox completely, then it starts all over again. Ghost Tabs!

  • Getting blank pdf files when I try to view them on computers other than my Mac

    I need some assistance.  I keep getting blank pdf files when I try to view them on anything other than my Mac.  I create them in either Illustrator or InDesign and I make sure that I select High Image Quality.  I can view them just fine in my Acrobat reader, but the minute I send them out to others or view them on a PC with Acrobat Reader 7 i can't view them.  I get this message "There was a problem reading this document (111)"  Does anyone know the solution to this problem?

    Many PC users still use older versions of Acrobat or Acrobat Reader. I know some people that absolutely refuse to update beyond Acrobat Reader 4.5, often times, that can contribute. Also if you've run PDF Optimizer and removed all the fonts. That can cause a problem.
    Also, make sure you save pdf's with the .pdf extension. As much as they say the opposite PC's need to see that extension.

  • Why do my scanned photos turn red when I try to edit them in IPhoto?

    Why do my scanned photos turn red when I try to edit them in IPhoto?

    Assuming these are Black and white, iPhoto still needs an RGB colorspace assigned, it can't work with images that are in B&W colorspace.
    Scan in color and de-saturate in iPhoto, if required.
