Issues with the "right click" window not going away, unable to web browse

Out of the blue, and at least 3-4 times a day, the "right click" pop up window will appear while I am web browsing, if I try to move the mouse , the window will continue to appear until I have to re boot.. Also, while it does this, sometimes it will make my screen pan in and out while moving the mouse.. Any ideas why this happens.. It's becoming quite annoying. BTW my browser is fire fox, and I have reinstalled it but it has not helped.
Thanks

Actually... thinking about it... it sounds like a sticky ctrl key on your keyboard
The zooming in and out is when you hold ctrl and move the scroll ball
the "right click" function (as on macs of old) is activated when ctrl+click-ing...
Have a look around your keyboard, maby try another, see if the problem persists

    Captivate 5.5 Question: We seem to be having an issue with the screen capture piece not recording "everything".
    We're running 5.5 as an administrator on Windows 7 and my co-worker is trying to capture a webinar (GoToMeeting) with Captivate and it is not recording anything in the GTM window, except the last slide. Anyone have this problem or know a fix? Not much is mentioned in the Adobe forums.

    Captivate simply doesn't 'hear' some screen events on certain applications and you just need to resort to doing manual captures at these points.
    I usually set up my manual capture button to be F2 so that I can hit it with my left hand while my right hand is on the mouse navigating through the task.

  • Stop with the right-click answers. Reload is still missing from my View menu.

    Please stop with the "right-click" solutions. I don't have a mouse that does a "right-click."
    Also, this forum is so hard to use I can't even find my original post so I am starting another one.
    How do I get the "reload" function back into my View menu? Please do NOT tell me to "right-click," that is of no use to me.

    Hi again pvitari, <br />Sorry you still have problems. Possibly you do not have the option as previously, but you do have workable options to reload webpages using mouse clicks.
    *Please confirm or explain ?
    <img src="https://support.cdn.mozilla.net/media/uploads/gallery/images/2012-01-03-13-00-12-3d6b4e.png">
    *Do you not have a curved blue arrow on the end of the address bar as shown in the above image ?
    Your icons may not look exactly like that and will possibly depend on any customising you may have done. The arrow is only available when appropriate and could be: a cross to stop loading, or an arrow to navigate to a site.

  • I have an issue with the tabs and windows disappearing....?

    I have a constant problem with Firefox now. I notice that with Firefox 4 and 5 there has been a reoccurring problem with the tabs and windows closing on their own. If I have more than one window open, one of them will suddenly disappear and I wont see the tab at the bottom anymore until I click out of the one I am currently on. It is very annoying and only when I get out of Firefox completely will it sometimes reappear. Even more frightening is the fact that when I move the mouse downward to the bottom of the page the page shuts out as if I clicked out of it.
    I am wondering if this is a security issue meaning some type of malware or virus that is manipulating my browser or is this a common issue that has some unknown cause? I would like to know what the cause is and how it can be fixed because it annoys me all the time. Please help!!

    No Issue with the voltage in general. iPad is being charged via USB.
    1. If you connect it directly to the computer - no problem.

  • I have unchecked all the toolbars from the top of my screen but now I cannot get them back as the right click does not bring the same menu where I can check the toolbars back. I had unchecked address bar too so now I am wondering how to get these back. I

    i think i covered all the details.

    Just once or twice

    In Firefox 3.6 on Windows you can hide the menu bar via "View > Toolbars" or via the right click context menu on a toolbar.
    Press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the menu bar.
    Go to "View > Toolbars" or right-click the menu bar or press Alt+V T to select which toolbars to show or hide.

  • When is the right click print function going to work with Firefox 4

    Right click print function quit working when I updated to Firefox 4

    Firefox has never had a right-click Print menu item by default. If you had that with an earlier version of Firefox, it was added by an extension that you installed and isn't 4.0 compatible right now.
    I have been using this extension for that feature, for many years. - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/printprint-preview/ - It hasn't been updated for Firefox 4.0 versions yet, so I am using this one temporarily to get a Print Preview option in the Contextual Menus. - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/print-edit/ - The Print function is in the Print Preview window. That extension also allows you to edit what is going to be printed, so you can get rid of advertisements, empty multimedia boxes (Firefox won't print Flash or WMP content), and other stuff you don't want on the printed page, to save ink and paper.
    That may not be suitable to you as a replacement extension for what you had been using before, but I never print anything from Firefox before using Print Preview. I am tired of wasting ink and paper with Firefox not being able to correctly print web pages that every other web browser can print correctly. If the Print Preview doesn't look correct, I open that page in IE8, Opera11, or Safari 5.0.1 - all of which will print it correctly 99.9% of the time.

  • Copying a table with the right-click menu in schema browser fails to copy comments when string has single quote(s) (ascii chr(39))

    Hi,
    I'm running 32-bit version of SQL Developer v. 3.2.20.09 build 09.87, and I used the built in context menu (right-clicking from the schema browser) today to copy a table.  However, none of the comments copied.  When I dug into the PL/SQL that the menu-item is using, I realized that it fails because it doesn't handle single quotes within the comment string.
    For example, I have a table named WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT that I wanted to copy as WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT_V1 (within same schema name)
    1. I right-clicked on the object in the schema browser and selected Table > Copy...
    2. In the pop-up Copy window, I entered the new table name "WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT_V1" and ticked the box for "Include Data" option.  -- The PL/SQL that the menu-command is using is in the "SQL" tab of this window.  This is what I extracted later for testing the issue after the comments did not copy.
    Result: Table and data copied as-expected, but no column or table comments existed.
    I examined the PL/SQL block that the pop-up window issued, and saw this:
    declare
      l_sql varchar2(32767);
      c_tab_comment varchar2(32767);
      procedure run(p_sql varchar2) as
      begin
         execute immediate p_sql;
      end;
    begin
    run('create table "BI_ETL".WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT_V1 as select * from "BI_ETL"."WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT" where '||11||' = 11');
    select comments into c_tab_comment from sys.all_TAB_comments where owner = 'BI_ETL' and table_name = 'WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT' and comments is not null;
    run('comment on table BI_ETL.WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT_V1 is '||''''||c_tab_comment||'''');
    for tc in (select column_name from sys.all_tab_cols where owner = 'BI_ETL' and table_name = 'WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT')
        loop
       for c in (select comments from sys.all_col_comments where owner = 'BI_ETL' and table_name = 'WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT' and column_name=tc.column_name)
       loop
       run ('comment on column BI_ETL.WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT_V1.'||tc.column_name||' is '||''''||c.comments||'''');
    end loop;
    end loop;
    EXCEPTION
      WHEN OTHERS THEN NULL;
    end;
    The string of the table comment on WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT is this:
    WBIG table of frozen, point-in-time snapshots of Enrolled Students by Category/term/pidm. "Category" is historically, and commonly, our CENSUS snapshot; but, can also describe other frequencies, or categorizations, such as: End-of-Term (EOT), etc. Note: Prior to this table existing, Census-snapshots were stored in SATURN.SNAPREG_ALL. All FALL and SPRING term records prior-to-and-including Spring 2013 ('201230') have been migrated into this table -- EXCEPT a few select prior to Fall 2004 (200410) records where there are duplicates on term/pidm. NO Summer snapshots existed in SNAPREG_ALL, but were queried and stored retroactively (including terms prior to Spring 2013) for the purpose of future on-going year-over-year analysis and comparison.
    Note the single quotes in the comment: ... ('201230')
    So, in the above PL/SQL line 11 grabs this string into "c_tab_comment", but then line 12 fails because of the single quotes.  It doesn't know how to end the string because the single quotes in the string are not "escaped", and this messes up the concatenation on line 12.  (So, then no other column comments are created either because the block throws an error, and goes to line 22 for the exception and exits.)
    When I modify the above PL/SQL as my own anonymous block like this, it is successful:
    declare
      c_tab_comment VARCHAR2(32767);
    begin
    SELECT REPLACE(comments,chr(39),chr(39)||chr(39)) INTO c_tab_comment FROM sys.all_TAB_comments WHERE owner = 'BI_ETL'   AND table_name = 'WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT'  AND comments IS NOT NULL;
    EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'comment on table BI_ETL.WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT_V1 is '''||c_tab_comment||'''';
    for tc in (select column_name from sys.all_tab_cols where owner = 'BI_ETL' and table_name = 'WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT')
        loop
       for c in (select REPLACE(comments,chr(39),chr(39)||chr(39)) comments from sys.all_col_comments where owner = 'BI_ETL' and table_name = 'WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT' and column_name=tc.column_name)
       loop
       EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'comment on column BI_ETL.WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT_V1.'||tc.column_name||' is '||''''||c.comments||'''';
    end loop;
    end loop;
    EXCEPTION
      WHEN OTHERS THEN NULL;
    end;
    On lines 4 and 8 I wrapped the "comments" from sys.all_tab_comments and sys.all_col_comments with a replace command finding every chr(39) and replacing with chr(39)||chr(39). (On line 8 I also had to alias the wrapped column as "comments" so line 10 would succeed.)
    Is this an issue with SQL Developer? Is there any chance that the menu-items can handle single quotes in comment strings? ... And, of course this makes me wonder which other context menu commands in the tool might have a similar issue.
    Thoughts?
    thanks//jacob

    I know about quick drop, but it isn't helpful here. I want to be able to right click on a string or array wire, navigate to the string or array palette, and select the corresponding "Empty?" comparator. In this case, since I do actually know where those functions live, and I'm already using my mouse to right click on the wire, typing ctrl-space to open quick drop and then typing in the function name is actually more work than navigating to it in the palette. It would just be nice to have it on hand in the location I naturally go to look for it the first time. 
    I don't agree with this work flow.  Right hand on mouse, left hand on home keys.  Pressing CTRL + Space is done with the left hands, and then you could assign "ea" to "Empty Array" both of which is accessible with the left hand.  Darren posted a bunch of great shortcuts for the right handed developer.

    This is much faster than waiting for any right click menu navigation, even if it is found in the suggested subpalette.

  • How do I copy and paste an image form the internet to Keynote. I have done this successfully in the past by selecting copy and then paste by using the right click function and now am unable to do so. I am thinking it is an outdate OS problem...not sure.

    How do I copy and paste an image from the internet to Keynote. I have done so successfully in the paste by using the copy and paste right click functions but am unable to do so now. That was about a year ago that I attempted that I was able to do this. Thank you for your help.

    Some images are copy-protected.
    If all else fails, you can make a screen shot of the image: 
    With the image visible in your browser, press CMD-Shift-4 and your cursor will change to crosshairs.
    Position the cross hairs at one of the corners of what you want to copy and drag to the opposite corner, then release the mouse. An copy of the image will be saved to your desktop.
    You can now edit and use this image.
    Be sure to respect copyrights.

  • Animated GIF files, anyone had issues with the selected animation delay not saving as specified?

    I am working on PSE 9 for Mac and have created my psd file with the layers.
    Selected 'Save for Web' and chose GIF as the file format.
    Ticked 'Animation', then from the bottom right hand corner under 'Animation' I have ticked 'loop' and in the 'delay' drop down selected 2.0 (so 2 seconds).
    When I check the file in 'preview in' web it shows the file flashing faster than 2 seconds a frame. I also checked it by uploading it onto my website and it is flashing faster than 2 seconds.
    I have saved the file several times to check. It appears that even though you are given a choice that is automatically saves the delay at the auto-populated delay speed of 0.2 seconds.
    Thoughts anyone?

    As far as i know, the frame delay has been broken
    for several versions on the mac pse.
    Since version 4 maybe?
    You can comment on this post and hopefully adobe will fix it in pse 10.

  • Window not going away.

    When trying to uninstall and reinstall adobe flash due to error messages I had been receiving, A window popped up asing if I wanted to "Stop installing all applications" with options "yes" and "no".  The problem is neither button will do anything when pressed.  The window/program refuses to close (quit) and I am unable to restart my computer. Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

    Cmd+Opt+Esc
    Force quit it.
    If that doesn't work:
    Mac HD/Applications/Utilities>Activity Monitor
    Terminate the process.
    IF those fail, press and hold the power button for eight seconds until it shuts down.
    Worst case... pull the plug out of the wall.

  • Libreoffice right-click context menu going beyond the end of the page

    having a rather annoying issue with libreoffice 3.x (started with 3.5.x and still in 3.6.1): The right-click context menu goes over the screen borders when I am at the end of the page (instead of opening in the other direction so that all options are visible). I am running arch 64bit KDE 4.9.1. But I think in this case that's not relevant because we have a second computer, the same one basically with an extremely similar setup and there it works just fine. I did uninstall libreoffice, got rid of the .cache in the home folder, then reinstalled but the problem persists.
    Anyone know how to fix this or hints on how to approach the problem?
    Thx!
    Captn

    Update:
    the problem was fixed with an update to KDE 4.9.2 but shortly after for some reason, it reappeared. As previously mentioned, I tried uninstalling libreoffice entirely, including the libreoffice .config folder. Here is what it looks like (second screen shot):
    I noticed that this also happens with dolphin when I open it as root. Someone came across the same issue and fixed it?
    Help's greatly appreciated
    Captn
    Edit: libreoffice version 3.6.1
    Edit 2: Real Problem identified:
    I just wanted to update this thread should there be others that, at one point or another, run into a similar problem. I won't be marking the thread as solved since I did not actually solve the problem (yet). However, I did identify the cause and therefore know how to circumvent it.
    Since I didn't elaborate much on the specs / technical side, I have an HP pavilion with an Nvidia card and I am using the propretiary drivers. I set up a separate X screen for my TV and there is where the problem lies. It has worked for months but since recently this setup causes some weird graphical behavior (as in the above pictures) which can be annoying. If using the twinview setup or no external monitor, everything works normal. My guess is that plasma-desktop and the separate x screen don't work very well together for a reason unknown to me for the time being.
    The problem itself can be annoying if you rely on libreoffice to work so I hope this might help somebody should there be annyone running into a similar issue.

  • Issue with desktop Opt/Click (right click) & 'Change Desktop Background'

    I have an issue with the opt/click in the desktop in ML 10.8.2. The 'Change Desktop Background' using opt/click (right click) works after reboot, but fails to open (work correctly) thereafter. The 'System Preferences' icon bounces in the dock but nothing else happens, I have either click on the SP icon or re-opt/click (R click) again to get it working. All else seems to be in order but not this. I have tried this with 2 complete full installs & still doesn't work correctly (same issue. I have reported it to Apple, but I was wondering if anyone else experiencing this problem?

    So, here's what I've learned so far.
    Fresh reboot.  Works fine.  Close and try again, doesn't work.  This you already know.
    Here's what I tried to see if it makes a difference:
    I removed:
    ~/Library/Caches
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.*, com.apple.systempreferences.* and com.apple.desktop.*
    That didn't help.
    I tried it in safe mode.  Same issue.
    Here's something interesting I noticed.  If you open terminal and killall Finder, that refreshes it and makes it work again... for 1 try.
    This does, in fact, seem like a bug.
    For reference, I'm currently on a mid 2012 macbook pro.  Running fully updated on mt lion.

  • Revisiting the Right-click issue

    I know about the issue with right-click in Captivate, so I put all my files for the client to review on my own website, so right-clicking works fine, and I have verified this on multiple computers.
    However, my client is telling me that on her computer the right click does not work.  Since it is running from a web server I am not sure why that is, or what may be the problem.  The only issues I had dealt with before were running from a local or networked drive.
    Is there anything she should try to make this work?
    Thanks.

    Ask her to get some other coworkers at her site to test the same link.  If they all report the same issue then you may have something in her Standard Operating Environment that is causing this issue.  If they can use right-click but she cannot, then it could be something to do with her user profile.
