Just upgraded to Firefox 4.0. when I scroll with the mouse wheel, the screen jumps as if it is redrawing with each wheel roll. IE does not do this, so it shouldn't be a hardware/mouse setting.
All other programs scroll smoothly as should be; what's happening in Firefox to cause this?
Noticed it only happens on my secondary monitor; on the primary, it scrolls just fine. Got any ideas on how to fix this?

I just upgraded to Firefox 4. Now my cursor doesn't "snap-to" the default position.
I just upgraded to Firefox 4. Now my cursor doesn't "snap-to" the default button. I made sure it was newly recognized (by unchecking and rechecking) in
Control Panel > Mouse > Pointer Options > Snap To: Automatically move pointer to a default button in a dialog box > Apply > OK
But the Fox isn't cooperating. How do I get this working again?I'm afraid I don't understand how your reply relates to my problem. I'll type the words I don't understand in your answer:
"default dialog button" (where do you find this?)
"mouse middle-click button" (I have a wheel)
"Global default" I don't know what that is, so, apparently, it doesn't apply to me.
"IntelliMouse" I don't have this either, just an old, dumb "Dell mouse" ;-)
"dialog box" is that what I'm hoping the cursor will be moved to? If so, how do I get it to move there on it's own? What's the purpose of "Snap to" if I have to move the cursor there myself? -
I just upgraded to Firefox 8 -- from Internet Explorer.
Previously, I pulled up my emails from Start, Email-Microsoft Office Outlook.
I get no response doing that now.
How should I get my emails?If there are problems with importing the IE Favorites in Firefox then export the favorites in IE to an HTML file and import that file in the Firefox Bookmarks Manager.
If you do not have the menu bar in IE then right-click the toolbar at the top to enable the Menu Bar.
*Export the favorites in IE to an HTML file (bookmarks.html):<br>File > Import and Export
*Import the HTML file in Firefox:<br>Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Import Bookmarks from HTML

Sirs,
The below URL came up immediately when I tried to access our Newfangled website this morning http://vdha.us :
http://surveyprizecenter.com/survey/claimgift-GT-kw-7b.php?t202kw=Vdha.us&trimmedKeyword=Vdha.us
I prefer to use Firefox and very seldom use IE-9. but now I might be forced to remove Firefox 4.0.1 and resort to using IE-9 because of this situation.
I don’t know how spammers can use our website to exploit their spamming, but I can only imagine the complaints I am going to get from our Board of Directors and members about this.
Can you make them stop, or at least explain how it is that anyone can do this without our permission.
We have never allowed advertisement on our website and don’t plan on starting now.
I am now also getting many words that are purple with two lines under them, and when you mouse over them, a new spamming window opens automatically trying to sell something. How do I turn this off?
I would appreciate any expediency in the return of an answer that you can provide.
Kindest Regards,

http://vdha.usThe "MySearchDial" app needs to be removed in 4 places.
1) Go to "add / remove programs" in your windows control panel select mysearchdial and remove it.
2) Open your Firefox browser then click the Firefox tab at the top left and select options. You will need to change the start page settings back to your preferred start page.
3) Again under the Firefox tab select "add-ons". In the add-ons manager you will need to remove mysearchdial from both "plugins" and "extensions"
4) In your search bar (top right of address bar" use the drop down menu and select "manage search engines". You can restore your preferred search engine and remove mysearchdial from the menu.
This should remove all the components of the nuisance hijacker and restore your browser back to your preferred settings. If you are comfortable with a more in depth removal I would also suggest going to your "programs" folder within the "C" drive of your machine and deleting the "MySearchDial" folder altogether. However, only do this AFTER you have uninstalled it from your system and if you are familiar with this type of removal. -
Question says it all.
Thank you. BUT, I've been downloading since noon. Download speed is 1KB/s, and it says that I have 2 hrs, 25 minutes, no, 2 hrs 27 minutes, wait, 2 hrs 28 minutes (and growing) to go.
I hope the Mozilla folks post a system requirements warning, next time. -
my firefox 4 wont play any videos. adobe flash player says its not compatible with this arcitecture. Did anyone bother to test this before releasing it.
I appreciate you taking the time to respond, but I don't want to uninstall my persona. I want to uninstall FireFox 4. I love my persona.
It really bugs the crap out of me when FireFox sends these upgrades around and I click "yes" to install them then my entire desktop stops working.
Is it always necessary for their upgrades to render the add-ons that people develop useless? -
I just upgraded to Firefox 3.6.13 this morning and now, when I click on a link in an email or webpage, it won't open Firefox. How can I get this option restored in Firefox so I don't have to copy and paste the link?

When i hit the back button, the web page can not reload ! and this button is disable ! I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid ! and I've just upgrade to firefox 4 RC. Sorry for my poor English skill !
In Firefox 23 versions and later the keyword.URL pref is no longer supported and it is no longer possible to specify the search engine for the location bar via the keyword.URL pref.<br />
The search engine that is used on the location bar and on the about:home page is the search engine that is selected in the search Bar on the Navigation Toolbar.<br />
Current Firefox versions do not update the about:home home page until you refresh the page (future versions will do this automatically without a refresh) and that is what happens if you use the Back key.
You can install the Keyword Search extension to specify with search engine to use for the location bar and which search engine to use for the about:home page via the Options/Preferences windows of this extension, accessible via the about:addons page.

Just upgraded to firefox 4 and websites are now taking ages to load, there were no problems when I downloaded the upgrade. Is there a fault with the new version of firefox?
Did you check your security software (firewall)?
A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.

I just upgraded to Firefox 4.0 only to find my Roboform disappeared - When I click on Roboform Toolbar, Firefox takes me to the site to buy a license that I already have. What happened to my Roboform Toolbar, which was working and now it's there?
Depends upon the version of Roboform you have. Roboform Pro v.6 needs to be updated to v.7 for Firefox 4.0 compatibility.
If you are using the '''Full RoboForm Toolbar''', install the Roboform adapter for '''Firefox 3.0 - 4 beta X''' from here: <br />
http://www.roboform.com/firefox.html
Scroll down that page, you want the one shown under: <br /> '''Additional Full RoboForm Toolbar Information''' <br />
'''RoboForm Installer Installs Adapter Automatically into Firefox''' <br />
Or, you can install it from this link: <br />

Just upgraded to Firefox 10 on a Window7 64 bit PC. Google Finance charts no longer work. Checked the web for similar. Updated to latest compatible Adobe Flash player 32 bit as suggested. Flash player works. I can see finance charts in IE, but not Firefox 10. I can see finance charts on Yahoo in Firefox, but not Google finance charts. Main chart at google.com/finance is displayed. Individual stock charts don't.
Download Adobe Flash Player installer 10.3.183.7 (2.94 MB)
* http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
* '''When Downloading Plugins Update setup files, Remove Checkmark from Downloading other Optional Softwares with your Plugins (e.g. Toolbars, McAfee, Google Chrome, etc.)'''
* Close Firefox (click '''Firefox''' button and click '''Exit''')
* Open the '''install_flash_player.exe''' file, then follow the installer's instructions.
-> Start Firefox in Safe Mode by Holding down the '''Option''' key while starting your Mozilla Firefox application. (If the Profile Manager opens, select a profile and then hold down the '''Option''' key again while clicking the button to start Firefox.)
* As an alternate method, go to Utilities (in the Applications folder) and open Terminal, then run:
** /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin -safe-mode
-> Firefox Safe Mode window will appear -> DON'T SELECT ANY OPTIONS, just click '''Continue in Safe Mode'''
-> go to a website that uses Flash player:
* http://www.youtube.com/
* http://movies.yahoo.com/
Check and tell if its working while you are Browsing in Firefox Safe Mode.

I just upgraded my Firefox program to a new version and immediately I started seeing a group of black lines running 10-15 deep running across my computer screen while on the Web. As I scroll down they sometimes disappear. Then they reappear. It doesn't happen all the time. But often enough.
Contact Apple. That sounds like a hardware issue in the graphics circuit.

Just upgraded to Firefox 4 and important Norton toolbar is missing - how do I get it back?
I've only just upgraded to Firefox 4 today (30.4.11) and when it had installed and restarted, my Norton toolbar was missing. A message from Firefox did come up - something to do with some items not compatible with version 4 but I can't remember all that it said. I haven't had this problem with any of the other versions of Firefox. This is an important toolbar as it concerns identity protection, safe web searching.
Symantec have released updates for Norton 360 and Norton Internet Security to make them compatible with Firefox 4, for details see http://community.norton.com/t5/Norton-Internet-Security-Norton/Firefox-4-compatibility-hotfix-is-now-available/td-p/428894
