In Firefox 8.0, why are certain apparently random images appearing as solid black boxes? These images can be accessed when clicked on. (Cache has been cleared; no effect)

In facebook, the images sometimes appear as they should, and then they gradually shift to black. Although it appears that the images affected are random, the images that initially turn black remain consistent in their behaviour upon return visits.

Thank you for your reply.
I followed the instructions implicitly and could find nothing amiss. I followed the directions at "https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Images or animations do not show" and disabled the security software. RealPlayer is not installed.
The problem images remain blacked out.
The issue also occurs with certain images I personally upload to Facebook.

  • Why do I get error -1074388985 at CAN Connect Terminals when the Channel API has been stopped?

    While trying to establish synchronized CAN and DAQ using the Channel API, I get the error -1074388985 while attempting to connect the RTSI Clock to the master timebase.  The error message occurs each time I try to run the example VIs shipped with LabVIEW 6.1.  I am using a Series 2 PCI CAN card with a 6034E DAQ card.  Any ideas?  Tech support did not have a solution.

    Hi AVR,
    This warning means you have tried to change an attribute on a running object. This causes the warning and should not take place.
    Use the "Initialize' function instead of the "initStart" Function, then change the Attribute and use the "Start" function to start the communication, or stop the communication using the "stop" Function before you change any Attribute and then start again.
    Hope that helps

  • Why are certain sites suspended? some of the backdoors for game sites show "This Account has been Suspended" when you try to access them.

    What does "This Account has been Suspended" mean and why are certain sites suspend?

    This is what I get:
    ISP: Be Un Limited
    Organization: Be Un Limited
    Connection: Broadband
    Services: None Detected
    City: Horsham
    Region: West Sussex
    Country: United Kingdom
    It can't be a problem with my ISP or my IP address since it only happens with Firefox. When I try out the same listings with other browsers it doesn't happen. eBay said Firefox must be making it seem as though I am in France. Goodness knows how or why??

  • HT202020 Why are certain videos that I have taken with my iPhone 4 not supported by Aperture.

    Why are certain videos that I have taken with my iPhone not supported by Aperture?  That's weird.  I expect that since both iPhone and Aperture are Apple products, file support should be seamless between the two. 
    Also, iPhone 4 does not appear as Camera Model in the metadata of the unsupported video file in Aperture .  But other videos I have taken with the same iPhone 4 appear in Aperture and the Camera Model appears correctly.  Why is that?

    Have you done some cleaning and cleared caches on your Mac? Maybe the  com.apple.xpchelper.cache file is missing. Check the folder /System/Library/Caches/
    Re: Import video to Aperture library on Mountain Lion https://discussions.apple.com/message/19304702#19304702
    If this file should be missing, you need to restore it from a backup or reinstall it by reinstalling your system.

  • Why are certain albums like ones from Tool or Ozzy era black sabbath not available in the U.S. store

    why are certain albums like ones from Tool or Ozzy era black sabbath not available in the U.S. store

    Also, in some cases the artist will not allow download sales, or insists on a download store selling complete albums only rather than offering individual tracks, something Apple resists. In any case, it's not by Apple's choice; it's by decision of the content owners.

  • Why are certains applications not available in South African App Store?

    Why are certain applications such as Google Earth, Google Mobile App, and most games not available in the South African App Store.
    We speak English so localisation should not be a problem.
    I'm sure there are no legal reasons why these applications are not available here, as we have desktop equivalents for most of them.
    Why does South Africa have to have a diminished iPhone experience?

    No idea.
    You would have to ask Apple and/or the company that makes the app and/or - most likely - the Government of your country.
    I'm sure Apple and the app developer would love to sell more apps.
    Since this is a user forum, made up of iphone users, like you - there is nothing we can do about it.
    Sorry.

    There is no list of authorized computers.  Where do you see a list?
    You must be talking about something other than authorization.  Please clarify.

  • Why are certain Gmail messages and conversations not appearing in Firefox 4 (I get the left sidebar, top bar, but message fails to appear), but functions fine in all other browsers?

    Certain messages in Gmail are not displaying properly (http://img607.imageshack.us/i/screenshot20110228at101.png/). These messages appear properly in all other browsers (including previous versions of Firefox), and also appear when I disable all labs. Disabling Right Side Chat labs appears to enable display of the message, but destroys all formatting (page stretches to the right beyond viewable resolutions, line breaks disappear), and so on.

    Thank you for your prompt email.
    I have thoroughly checked and double-checked all the factors below.
    On two different computers. Unfortunately, nothing has helped yet.
    I can assure you that each item listed below has been checked several times during all my searching today and ALSO again right now.
    There are no problems with Plugins, Themes or Extensions found. No permissions blocked, No media blocked images, No third-party permissions blocked. No images blocked from any domains. And images are 'Enabled'. There are no exceptions in place to the loading images. No exclusions in my security software settings.
    AND I have checked all of this on a second computer that is also having this same problem. That person is using a different security software than I am but they are having the same problem with images in only their Gmail account also - but NOT when using IE9. Only when signing in through Firefox. And we both think it started yesterday or this morning.
    That pc is still on Firefox version 12.0. I updated earlier today to version 13.0 but the problem is still ongoing for both of us.
    Any further help will be greatly appreciated.
    I have to get something accomplished. WAY behind now.
    Thank you,

  • Why are certain folders 'hidden'?

    Can't figure this one out: some folders are, by default, hidden in Finder, particularly
    Macintosh HD/users/me/Library
    The only way I can make it visible is to use Onyx or a Terminal command, which also makes tons of other files visible, which I don't necessarily need. Why is the 'Library' folder hidden and how can I make it show in Finder without using funky commands to make it appear? Also, I'm assuming that there are other such folders, that I might not need right now, that are hidden...
    I've rebuilt all the indexes I can find, but to no avail. Any ideas out there?
    Thanks!

    ~/Library is (or should be) the only hidden folder in your home directory.  Apple deliberately chose to hide it in Lion to keep people out of it - the idea is that it's where applications store data, etc, etc that is specific to your account and that there's no reason for users to be mucking around in it themselves.
    And given how many times people have shown up here with problems they've created themselves by mucking around in their Library (or /Library, or /System) I can't say that point of view is totally unwarranted...
    However, actually getting to your ~/Library if you do need to is still relatively easy...open a Finder window.  From the menu bar select the "Go" menu.  All the same choices (generally) as are in your sidebar should be there.  Now press the "option" key.  Your Library should appear in the menu.  Click it and you are there.
    Now, while ~/Library is the only hidden folder in your home directory, there are tons of hidden folders in the system root...and you would be well advised to stay out of them.  These include:
    /bin
    /cores
    /dev
    /etc (which is really /private/etc)
    /home
    /net
    /private
    /sbin
    /tmp (which is really /private/tmp)
    /usr
    /var (which is really /private/var)
    And others.  Plus some hidden files.  Unless you're feeling particularly Unix-y, you should really, really leave them alone.

  • Why are certain songs syncing to my iPhone!?

    I have iTunes set to sync a couple if specific playlists (both smart, and static). However, there are a handful of certain songs that keep syncing to my iPhone no matter how many times I delete them. They are not in any of the playslists set to sync. How can I get it to stop doing this?
    iPhone 4S, current version of iTunes, current version of iOS and OS X.

    By chance did you buy these songs on your iPhone?  If so, they are checked to sync (always) to the iPhone.
    If you go to the Music sync are in iTunes, there are playlists, articles and individual songs.  All songs you've purchased on the iPhone are checked in the "songs" box.  You may have to scroll through 15,000 songs to find them.
    I've been caught out by this before as well.  It's frustrating ;-)

  • Why do certain webpages via google searches (YouTube, google images etc) not load when clicked but load upon page refresh?

    I had problems with my Firefox browser being too slow so recently reset the browser (preserved my bookmarks but lost all my plugins). Now I find that when I am searching for something in google when clicking on certain links the window goes blank/white and shows a long url across the top (showing the link was pressed from a google search) and only if I refresh the page will the link load up.
    Not sure why this is the case and could use some advice.
    Thank you in advance.

  • *HELP* why are "edit in photoshop" images smaller?

    Ok, for the life of me (I've searched this forum high and low and can't find an answer) I cannot figure out why when I go to "edit in phototshop" my images end up being around 7x13 instead of full size. I always import the images in full resolution (from my Canon 5D).
    Of course I can select the entire catalog and "export" and change the size to whatever I want to but I'm afraid when I'm opening them up in CS5 from LR3 that I'm losing image quality.
    So I guess I have 2 questions:
    Is there an adjustment that will allow me to "edit in" in FULL file size in CS5?
    If not and I save the files in CS5, then I see them edited in my LR catalog and I go to export them and make the image size larger (say 20x30 from the 9x13) that it opened up as in CS5, is there IQ loss?
    Hope that made sense.
    Any help is appreciated!

    You are not the only person who has been confused by this.
    For digital images, the resolution in pixels per inch, or pixels per centimeter, are truly meaningless. They do not affect the exported photo in any way. The same is true for the Edit In ... dialog box. The result of an "Edit In ..." is always a digital file.
    If you are exporting with the goal of printing an image, then you could set the units to inches, and select pixels per inch, and for example, if you wanted to print a 4x6, you could set the long edge in the Export dialog box to 6 inches and the resolution to 300 pixels per inch, and voila you get an image that has 1800 pixels on its long edge, this downsamples the image, and may not be strictly necessary if your image is actually larger than you need.
    A "Better" way to think about this is the following example — my image is going to be printed at 8x10 inches, I want it to print at 300 pixels per inch, therefore I multiply 8x10 time 300 and discover that I need 2400x3000 pixels (or more!) in order to print properly.
    So with the above explanation, I still have no idea why Edit In ... contains a resolution box, as you can always change the final size in your auxiliary editor. Having a resolution field in the Export Dialog box might make some sense in printing situations.

  • Exporting for web in Illustrator 6, why are my png & gif images turning out blurry?

    I have never had this problem before. I am exporting an image for web in Illustrator 6 and my images are all turning out blurry. I have attached a sample image as well as a screenshot of my current settings, although I have messed with the settings quite a bit and I seem to have this problem no matter what I do.

    gwynthfair,
    Apart from its inverted colour, the image in the OP does look rather bad when clicked, but the linked version seems quite normal given the size.

  • All of a sudden, all I get is a 1" x 1.5" box in the middle of the screen that says Firefox, and Yahoo beneath that. I have deleted and reinstalled, same thing. Help, I can't access Firefox after many years.

    Besides the word Firefox is a reddish square. Clicking on either the word or the box makes it disappear down to the bottom try. I am at a loss. I've always used Firefox without any problems, now I can't access it. I deleted and reinstalled 4 times this morning. Help
