Just updated to Firefox 8, and my auto scroll on my touchpad no longer works. Any help?!

Auto Scroll is checked in the advanced settings/options, but still not working. Arrow keys do work to scroll, but I do not use those....So far I'm not impressed with the updated firefox! Not liking the way it's set up!!

Not sure whether this link can help:

  • I updated to Firefox 7 and now the scrollwheel on my touchpad doesn't work. Have tried updating my device driver, and restarting with add ons disabled. Please help!

    OS- Windows 7
    Upgraded from Firefox 3. I tried updating to FF 4 a while ago and had the same problem, so I went back to 3. Decided it was time to upgrade and the problem recurred. Please help!

    Try to modify the pref <b>ui.trackpoint_hack.enabled</b> on the about:config page from the default value -1 to 0 or 1 to see if that makes the scroll pad work.
    To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />
    *Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
    *Preferences that have been modified show as bold (user set).
    *Preferences can be reset to the default via the right-click context menu if they are user set
    *Preferences can be changed via the right-click context menu: Modify (String or Integer) or Toggle (Boolean)

  • Mozilla just updated to Firefox 4 and disabled my F5 access. I can no longer work from home!

    I'm trying to connect to my work network from home, but Firefox automatically updated to Firefox 4 on my home computer and disabled my F5 software which was what I was using to remotely login to my work computer. F5 Networks VPN client is standard stuff issued by my Federal Government job to allow me to work from home.

    Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac.

    For an unofficial Firefox 4 compatible version (TenFourFox) that runs on PowerPC Macs with OS X 10.4.11 or OS X 10.5.8 you can look at:

  • I just updated to Firefox 8 and I can't get new windows to open in new tabs. The settings under 'Tools/Tabs" are correct. I tried uninstalling/re-installing Firefox, what do I do next?

    I'm running Vista Home Premium 64-bit.
    (I had a similar problem with Internet Explorer, which is why I switched to Firefox last year).

  • I just updated to firefox 4 and now the highlight bar wont automatically highlight all my words that 3.6 did. if i manually click the button it will, but not automatically. how do i fix this?

    using the google highlight bar

    You can open the History in the sidebar via View > Sidebar > History (Ctrl+H)<br />
    Press F10 or press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.
    You can find toolbar buttons to open the bookmarks and the history in the sidebar in the toolbar palette and drag them on a toolbar.
    Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"

    Here's an interesting bit: iTunes will let me restore my iPod touch from backup: it's still running iOS 4.3.3. I figured as much... there's backups showing in the Preferences -> Devices list for both devices (and even my old, long gone iPod touch 2G), but my iPhone (on iOS5) isn't giving me any such option. I remember I had to downgrade before to get the backup restored (something went haywire in the setup assistant, and I couldn't restore a backup from iTunes there)... If it was possible to go to iOS 5.0 rather than 5.0.1 I would just do the same thing again, but iOS 5.0.1 isn't an option. I attached a screenshot. Hopefully Apple can get this nonsense sorted out; I think iOS 5 might be the root of this, somehow.

  • I just updated my firefox today and now when I click on my popups or additional windows they pop up full screen. They used to pop up much smaller how do I change my settings so that these pop ups will be smaller?

    This happens when I click on my links they pop up as the full screen not the size they used to show up. I have tried other browsers and the pop ups have not changed in size like Firefox. I will be more than happy to provide screen shots to fully demonstrate my concern.

    I believe this is more about the default settings of the pop-ups. I have tried the 3 methods above and they have not solved my issue.
    As I have stated before this issue is not happening with other web browsers.
    Mozilla is better compatible with the program I am running.
    It seems you know your way around Mozilla so pleas help.
    P.S. I have taken screen shots and attached them to a word doc so I could best illustrate my issue with commentary and arrows but it will not save to my post. I have even tried posting it as a PDF.

  • Just updated to Firefox 5 and my display screen doesn't match your example it is the same as it was for firefox 4

    can't be any more specific

    You see the orange (on Linux gray) Firefox button if the Menu Bar is hidden, so you need to hide the Menu bar via View > Toolbars, also accessible via Firefox > Options.<br />
    If you need to access the hidden Menu bar then press F10 or hold down the Alt key to make the Menu Bar appear temporarily.<br />
    You can place the Tab Bar on top.
    * View > Toolbars : [ ] Menu Bar
    * View > Toolbars : [X] Tabs on Top

  • I just updated my firefox; what happened to my norton security; it is no longer visible

    I received an automatic update request from Firefox I accepted it but lost my Norton security program or at least anything visible and don't know how to get it back

    Look for the little Flag button in the lower left corner.

  • Updated to FireFox 11 and I keep getting "checking compatibility of add-on" when I start the browser.

    I just updated to FireFox 11 and whenever I start the browser, I get that annoying window that checks for the compatibility of add-ons.
    I have looked around for solutions and have tried the following:
    1. Deleting several extension files from the profile folder.
    2. Going to about:config to disable the extension:checkcompatibility (does not exist there).
    None of these worked.

    Did you try to delete the file prefs.js?

    Which security software (firewall, anti-virus) do you have?
    Some security software has virtualization features that can cause problems by protecting and restoring files in the Firefox profile folder.

  • Just updated to firefox 3.6.8 and now my laptop's hard drive failed after subsequent firefox crashes.

    I just updated to firefox 3.6.8 this morning after getting prompted to update as I started firefox. The firefox update successfully installed page said that I should update to the latest adobe flashplayer, so I did that as well, although that installation failed for whatever reason. I figured that I would update it later. I started watching live streaming videos on a website, and it was working for awhile, but firefox started to not respond. I tried opening up task manager, but even that started to lag and took minutes to open. The problem seemed resolved for awhile, but firefox started to not respond off and on, task manager stopped responding completely, explorer crashed, and my computer blue screened. It wouldn't even get off the blue screen after minutes of waiting, so I shut my laptop down manually. I'm positive that this couldn't have been a virus, since I only visited my usual websites, and I have both adblock plus and noscript installed. As for my laptop now, it won't boot to windows vista. I tried the hard drive test and failed. Now my laptop isn't even able to turn off no matter how long I hold down the power button. It's not an old laptop, so I doubt that it was just time for it to die.
    I have always been a fan of firefox, but this is just horrible. I don't know if it was firefox's fault but it sure seems like it...
    I'm currently on my older laptop, since my other one is obviously dead now. My broken one had vista installed and again, firefox 3.6.8 version.

    I have the same problem. I have never had a problem with Firefox before, and use it as my main browser. However recently, after updating to 3.6.8, its been crashing all the time. Up to 20 times an hour. Usually it occurs when I click a link from a Google search, or in Yahoo. Even if I send in a crash report and restart Firefox, it crashes as soon as the same page is brought back up, or the same link is clicked. I have also had it crash when completely idle. Its very frustrating as it is my favorite browser. I've resorted to using Google Chrome for the time being.
